Arthur turned around, staring at the figure who had spoken against his will. An old figure, yet so imprinted on his memory. Kept neatly in the corner of his heart, where he cultivated hatred. So no doubt, if the man immediately stared at the gaze, clenching his hands tightly. Hate half dead at the figure in front of him."What do you want to see me for?" he asked in an unusual tone, indicating his dislike. While the man in front of him flashed a smile, adding to the demonic impression that had long been imprinted on him."I came to see you by accident, I heard that your gang of outcasts managed to break into a bank in the city center, huh?" relaxed, always smiling--this is what describes the man in front of Arthur right now, in contrast to him who is half-dead holding back his emotions."What's your problem?""oh, come on, Arthur. Don't be so fierce with your old friend..." Old friend? Hah, nonsense! Arthur didn't have any old friends, let alone friends who willingly drew swords at hi

Garden was still silent there, in front of a confession of feelings that Adam called love. Her brain was trying to digest, not because she was so happy, but because the words invited a tightness that was nowhere to be found. Meanwhile, Arthur continued to stare at her with a serious gaze that made it even harder for her to control her breathing. Garden was not ready to hear it."Arthur, are you serious?""Have you ever seen me play?" the girl swallowed her saliva again, this situation was even more stressful than the time when Arthur was furious when he found out he was leaving Black Hall. He didn't know what to say back. If she said 'no', it would surely disappoint Arthur and if she said 'yes', she wasn't ready to lie about something as big as love. Isn't it cruel to give false hope to people who have clearly expressed their love for us?Garden took a few steps back until he was cornered on the balcony railing, he turned around and looked at the spacious expanse of the Black Hall cou

Arthur woke up with a start. Shocked, his chest tightened as he realized that he had just been visited by the same dream, a nightmare that never ended. It just revolved around the same places and scenes, Arthur would have been inflamed by the end of it.The separation, the loss, the tears, it was all complete as the main setting of his dream. Arthur immediately turned his face to look at the girl who was still sleeping on his bed, he closed his eyes-- breathing a sigh of relief. She was still there, where Arthur wanted her to be.He leaned closer, rubbed the top of her head and kissed her gently, "don't be my next nightmare, darling" he murmured softly, trying to speak without disturbing his beloved girl's sleep.After that he stood up from his seat, glancing at the sky from the ventilation gap. It was morning, it was sunny today, but there would be clouds of sadness that he created.", calm down my dear, this is the last time. After this, we will go far away. The paradise that only h

In the meeting room everyone had gathered, waiting only for Arthur and Elias to join them. The round table in front of them presented a paper with a detailed description of the place, they sat in a circle."Okay, I'll get started" Elias put down his wine cup, pulling the paper closer to him.", our final revenge mission is about to begin. You must know that our target is already superior to when he betrayed us, right?""Yes..., that bastard who licked the people's rights is now a mayor. I can't wait to drink his blood!" Lloyd seemed to be the most excited tonight. The words that came out of his mouth carried all the grudges and hatred, about the big traitor in Clan X he used to belong to."Calm down bro... Arthur bro who has more grudges with him can still be calm" Calix said while glancing at Arthur who was sitting not far from him. The man who was glanced at stared back, as usual---sharp---but refocused on the map in front of him.What Calix said was not nonsense, Arthur did have th

"What is it, sir? Do you need anything?" Instead of answering Eve's question, Arthur moved forward to get closer. He unwrapped the white pajama towel impatiently, revealing his small body with six-pack muscles on his stomach. The girl thought something bad was going to happen, especially if he took off the long black pants.She ran her clean fingers through her wet hair. Arthur climbed onto the bed, the girl grumbled-- she wanted to get off the bed, but he pulled her back closer first."Sir?" she called half frantically, but Arthur didn't respond. The man's eyes were still staring intently at her, frightening her. Arthur looked like someone who was possessed by a demon spirit like the one he saw in the horror movie Ellania gave him."Arthur...!""ssshhh..." he hissed softly followed by a furrowed brow, asking the girl to be quiet by putting his index finger to his lips. Those cold eyes that she was desperately trying to avoid were now freezing her--for the umpteenth time. She was tran
