Chapter 78: 4.12

[Pupa: Ding! Fatemeter increases to 60%.]

[Pupa: Ding! Fatemeter increases to 80%. This is the bonus Fatemeter for unlocking the hidden plot, congratulations host!]

[Pupa: Alert! Breakmeter decreases to 15%.]

[You know, somehow I'm not even surprised with the Breakmeter anymore, what happened, happened, I guess…]

"W—Well, I've confessed my feelings for you. I don't need your answer, I just want to relieve the burden in my heart, goodbye," Lyon turned back as he sprinted out of the garden. It didn't seem that Javier was chasing him, but in a split second, he saw a shadow flashed beside him and Javier suddenly appeared in front of Lyon.

Javier blocked the way out with his big posture. The golden eyes hadn't dissipated yet, but it seemed that he still had a bit of sanity, because it was not a complete golden eyes.

[Holy shi--! Did he teleport or what? This is not a magic world, right?]

[Pupa: He almost has his pure golden eyes, all his strength and agility has been boosted. This is a golden blood's trait, in order to protect or keep his true love.]

[Pupa: Not to mention that he also has the Sun King crest on his back. I'm not joking when I told you that he is a demigod.]

Lyon stopped in front of Javier and asked, "H—How could you dashed so fast?"

Javier gazed at Big brother Lyon who was astonished by his agility. Javier found that Big brother Lyon was extremely good looking, no, he was gushing with beauty. Even his Papa Aster, whom he thought was the most beautiful man in the world, paled in comparison with Big brother Lyon. 

"Big brother Lyon… you are… mesmerizing…" Javier said. He took one step closer to Lyon, but Lyon took one step back.

"J—Javier?" Lyon felt that Javier suddenly emitted a very pressuring aura around him. Whenever his golden eyes shone, he felt that the air around him stagnated and his knees felt weak. It was as if he was facing a powerful god.

Javier looked at the scared Lyon and he felt giddy in his heart. Like a hoarding dragon, he wanted to treasure Big brother Lyon, protect him from harm, and anything else that would covet him. 

How did this feeling surged up? He didn't know either, but all he wanted was to have Big bro Lyon on his side.

The air around them started getting heavier, Lyon started to have difficulty breathing, "J—Javi…"

Javier walked closer to the weakened Lyon and then embraced him gently. He hugged Big bro Lyon and kissed that pink lips. He was really a simple man, the voice in his head said that Big brother Lyon was his golden circle.

But he didn't know what that meant, though, his instinct told him that he should always stay close to Big bro Lyon. Because if he was careless, then Big bro Lyon will get taken by someone else, just like… just like…

Javier shook his head, he felt dizzy. He vaguely remembered something painful, but it was very blurry in his head. Thus, he tried to ignore it and said to Lyon;

"Big brother Lyon, I… I don't know what is happening with me. But I want to ask you something…"

"Can I trust your love?" Javier asked. It was a simple, yet deadly question. 

Yunyu was shocked by that question. He thought he could continue acting as Lyon, but when facing that question, and with that gentle eyes waiting for his answer, Yunyu felt that question was directed to him as Bai Yunyu instead of Lyon. 

Javier waited for Big bro Lyon's answer, when he saw that Lyon couldn't answer him, he just smiled bitterly, "I don't want to get hurt… twice."

It was Javier's last words before he closed his eyes and he fell to the ground with his arm still circling on Lyon's body. 

[Pupa: Ding! Fatemeter increases to 85%.]

[Pupa: Alert! Breakmeter decreases to 13%.]

Yunyu was in shock, he was lying on top of Javier's body right now. His ear was right on top of Javier's chest, so he could hear the constant heartbeat. He was glad that Javier only fainted after that weird thing with him.

When Yunyu saw the golden circle around his pupil started dilating and almost turning his eyes into pure golden, he felt that Javier had transformed into some kind of demigod. Javier still retained his gentle and simple nature, but Yunyu was sure that something happened inside Javier. 

[What happened when his eyes turned pure golden in front of me?]

[Pupa: That means he has been bonded with you, and has marked you as his golden circle. Be very careful when you've been marked as a golden circle, because one mistake will be fatal for this world.] 

[Pupa: He already marked you as his golden circle now, but the process is still halfway. Once his eyes turn pure golden, then you are officially his true love in your whole life.] 

Yunyu could vaguely guess so. It seemed that Javier simply fell in love with him out of nowhere. But it was very strange for Yunyu, especially when Javier said something about trickery.

[About his last words, why did he say that he didn't want to get hurt twice? He hadn't recovered his memory yet, right?]

[Pupa: Not yet, but Javier and all golden blood are always a special case, who knows what is inside his head and heart?]

Yunyu struggled a few times to break free from Javier's death grip. He called the guards outside the garden immediately to escort Prince Javier back to his room. Javier was still in his deep sleep. The head butler asked Lyon, "Your Highness, what happened to His Highness Prince Javier?"

Lyon answered truthfully, "He fainted after his eyes almost turned pure golden."

The head butler jolted in shock, he stared at Javier and him consecutively, then he cleared his throat and bowed his head, "Understood, I shall summon General Swordheart soon."

In an hour, a man in silver armor came inside Javier's room. He was an old man in his 50s, but still looked very vigorous. He glanced at Lyon before checking on Javier. 

He hummed for a moment, and then opened Javier's eyelid to check on his eyes. There was a slight surprise in his face, but he calmed down instantly. 

The old general walked towards Lyon and then asked, "Excuse me, Your Highness Crown Prince, what happened with you and Prince Javier in the garden an hour ago?"

Lyon gulped, he hesitated a bit, then slowly replied, "I… confessed my love for him." 

"I see, did he swear an oath to you?" 

"Oath? I don't think so…" 

"Then, last question," the old General Swordheart's eyes were still, he stared at Lyon seriously. His hand was on his sheathed sword, "Do you have any affair other than with Prince Javier? And… are you sure that it is a deep love? Your answer will determine my action, Crown Prince Lyon."
