121 Hones (1/2)

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
