บท 121: Honest

EDITED BY: AREZZ

In a rough dark place, five lights of different colors seemed to cross, each light radiated dazzling colors that caused them to look really ashamed throughout the dark background, Here where there was no sound, there was no life, there was nothing, this was the dimensional crack, The most unknown territory and a dangerous place, these five lights were currently looking for something

"Not yet?" A red light asked in a tired tone

"I have not found it, this is problematic" The blue light responded

"Should we separate?" A yellow light suddenly asked

The others thought about that and decided that it was the best option

"You must let us know if you find something, don't act on your own ... Remember that this territory belongs to the Guardian" A white light advised his companions

When the others heard the word 'Guardian', they felt very oppressive, but they nodded.

Each light took a different destiny, only in a matter of seconds they disappeared in the distance

Suddenly just where they were previously gathered, a crack appeared and a silver-haired man came out while smiling

"Are you so worried about me? You are really considered, but you shouldn't bother about me ... I'll just see what the Abyssal Dragon will do with you" The silver-haired man laughed heartily

He didn't care about these cockroaches; his duty was only to stop the angel that had given power to Pegasus

After all, it was his duty ... The Guardian of the dimensions duty

The moment Yukio entered the room; he had noticed the look he was receiving from Irina and Xenovia

The instant his eyes caught Irina, he felt a throbbing pain in his heart, he felt like he had betrayed her ... No, it was not necessarily like that

He had promised that if she came back, then 'maybe' he would agree to be with her, but never promised that he would be only with her (E/N: it's a little too late to be thinking about it though, I mean, you have around 10+ wives now xD)

However, he felt that he had failed her; anyway, it was his duty to face everything he did.

The time seemed to stop before Irina got up, and then she just said one phrase

Irina: "Yukio ..."

Xenovia felt too lost, she had heard that name before from her friend, and it was the boy for whom she was in love whit in her childhood

('Is this man Yukio?!') Xenovia felt totally puzzled

Yukio looked at Irina up and down without minding her first words "You have not changed much, you are still the typical girl ... Although certainly more reckless apparently"

He said 'reckless', because Irina previously wanted to go and fight against Kokabiel

But Irina was not paying attention to that at all, she felt really happy at this moment because her most precious person was right in front of her

('He…. Didn't forget me?')She wobbled and her feet moved in the direction of Yukio

Irina: "I-it's really you?" She asked while extending her hand, she was only a few steps away, just one step further and she would be completely in front of Yukio

Yukio nodded and he stepped in front of Irina. "Have you forgotten how do I look?"

Irina shook her head "No ... But you've changed too much!"

She obviously managed to recognize it, but this absurd change was amazing, her trembling hands touched Yukio's body, which made Xenoxia uncomfortable

Xenovia: "Ahem! ... Irina-san ... Could you keep that for later?" She could be a warrior, but watching this scene made her feel embarrassed

Irina realized her actions and pulled her hands away but her eyes were somewhat teary. "Why, how did you know I was here?"

She had to know ... she had to know how it was possible for Yukio to notice her

Yukio smiled and extended his hand, his fingers touched the necklace on Irina's neck. "Did you think about it? I wouldn't dare to leave you unprotected ..."

He tried to sound affectionate, and obviously was giving her a clue

Irina showed a weak smile "I always had a hunch about this necklace"

She had noticed, the first year she had received a mission, at that time she was carelessly and got attacked and almost got injured, but in reality, at that moment her necklace suddenly came in front of her, before she could think of anything, a translucent barrier had formed and stopped the attack

Irina was not stupid ... the necklace was not normal, a gift, this was a gift from her first love

And that first love, it turned out that he knew about supernatural world ... Yukio was not normal human

Yukio: "Was it useful for you?"

Irina: "It was ... And still is ... That was your intention from the beggining right?" She answered while taking Yukio's hand

Yukio nodded honestly and in his eyes appeared a dialogue when looking at the necklace

----------

He had bought the necklace in Kyoto, just before the meeting with Yasaka; he had given it to Irina to protect her

The others in the room keep looking at the scene of Yukio and Irina, everyone expected that if these two met, they would embrace or something ... But, they were just silent as they took each other's hands as if they were having a conversation only in their heads

But what could they know, it was the feeling that both of them were having to transmit to each other

Irina raised her head as she looked at Yukio's bright eyes; she had noticed her changes so quickly, dark hair and those eyes that had won some semi-circle pattern in Yukio's eyes

She felt a fanatical feeling when she saw them, but she repressed her ideas before clarifying things

Irina: "Since when ... Since when do you know"

She wanted to know from when Yukio was involved in the supernatural world

Yukio: "Possibly from the same time as you ..."

Irina: "So ... That time, that sword, was that why?" She was clearly insinuating the time Yukio went pale when trying to touch the sword that was in Ryuta's room

Yukio nodded and sighed "That idiot had something very dangerous with him, who would have thought about it"

Irina also nodded, she could not have really felt the power of that sword, but she absolutely had the feeling that it was very dangerous

At that time she only said that she 'liked', in fact, she had said it because she felt an aura very similar to the sword his father had at home.

While the two returned to look at each other, Yasaka smiled and pulled everyone else out of the place, she knew that Yukio had many things to talk about in private

Yukio felt grateful, he took Irina's hand and they sat the sofa, then he begins to tell his story...

---

Two hours later, Yukio left the room with a somewhat sad look, closed the door carefully and released a sigh

Yukio: "Not everything can be ... Always the same" He smiled

He knew that this was going to happen; he had told Irina everything without hiding anything

Yukio even told her about his daughter and didn't lie at all telling her how many wives he had, this caused Irina to look at him disappointed, she felt very hurt

He himself felt guilty and when Irina asked him to leave her alone, he could only nod and withdraw from the room

Yasaka had noticed that Yukio left the room and seeing his look she realized that things went wrong

Yasaka: "Are you okay?" She asked worried as she touched her husband's chest

Maybe others don't know, but for a dragon, feelings were really dangerous, as it says ... The stronger you are, the weaker you could be when they touch your Achilles heel

Yukio smiled and kissed his wife's forehead. "You shouldn't worry about it, has something happened recently?"

Yasaka smiled and shook her head "No, although I have news that Gabriel-san is asking to stay longer with us"

Yukio could only chuckle at the behavior of this infant Serafin

Yasaka knew what her husband was thinking and laughed too, she suddenly remembered something and said "Oh, by the way ... The woman named Griselda has been hinting at wanting to collaborate with us"

Yasaka had been chatting a lot with Griselda; to the point that she could understand that Griselda was really having a lot of headaches thanks to Gabriel, this was funny to Yasaka, but understanding Griselda, she was implying to Yukio, after all, having an angel in the Fairy King's faction could make things softer in the negotiations

Yukio understood that "If you see that it is trustworthy don't hesitate to recruit her, you can talk to others ... By the way, why is there a fallen angel in this place?"

He had felt the presence of a fallen angel long ago, was kind a weak, but persistent and that made him feel curious (E/N: Barakiel is in some deep shit…. RUN BITCH RUUUUUN)

Yasaka instantly became nervous and gave an explanation "It's just someone who has come to buy 'Magic Pills', because I order a very large amount we are taking it to a VIP room"

Yukio did not think much and nodded "I'll be uncommunicated for two days, tell the others please, I need to take care of some things" Then he kiss to Yasaka before leaving the place

The instant Yukio left, Yasaka let out a sigh but felt very bad

Yasaka: "Shuri-san ... I had to lie to you for you, it's better that you prepare an adequate compensation!" She felt bad lying to her husband, but she could not just spit the soup

Leaving things aside, she looked at the door of the room where Yukio left and then left the place
