An hour after Noel fell asleep, Ricky was playing with his smartphone to kill time. Sometimes, Noel would smile and snuggled happily with Ricky's hand. Ricky grunted.
"Just when is he gonna let go of my hand? It's hot." He sighed as he scrolled through the pages of his social media.
Suddenly he heard a door knocking and turned around to look at the door.
"Ooh~ how sweet." Adam and Taylor were standing at the door, grinning like a pair of idiots while shooting him teasing glances.
Aw, shoot.
"What do you imbeciles want?" He scorned, his tone was stern but lowered down to not wake Noel up.
"Well, we're here to return your wallet, and we told our members about your lateness as well. More party I guess." Adam mischievously smirked, but also lowered his tone to respect the sick person.
Taylor who became the silent listener to their conversations slowly sneaked closer to the bed where Noel was sleeping.
"Oh, what is this
Akarin_RishnaWhen I write this scene (referring to Noel holding Ricky's hand in sleep), I went like, "Aw this is so sweet." That was back then. Now that I think again about it, there are many things unreasonable regarding this scene. Nothing heavy though, I just thought that won't Ricky's hand go numb like that?

Noel"Your majesty!"Madam Ruzka called as she stood up from her seat. Izfar who was with her also stood up, his face brightened in delight. Noel emerged from the circle shaped ankh below him in his spirit form. Upon seeing the sage and the prime minister, he smiled brightly."It's been awhile. How have you guys been?"He asked first. Izfar stepped in front of him and bowed down."All Hail to His Majesty, the Emperor!" Was the first thing Izfar said out of respect to the Great Emperor of Ishtiya’ who’s hovering in front of him. Although Noel was in his soul form, the authority continuously oozes out from him, indicating absolute leadership.Noel chuckled. “Please, cease this. We don’t have much time, don’t we? I’ll have your pleasentries when I returned in my physical form.”“Indeed.” Izfar stood up and curtly adjusted his long robe—which reached down below his feet to the fl

NoelNoel wailed, in a mysterious, unknown tone.Was he wailing because he was sent home early by his club leader? Or his wails sounded more like he’s moaning in happiness because Irya' brought him the sweets that Ricky made for her out of gratitude?Pretty close, but that's not it.The cause of him wailing as he continued on kicking the air while rolling vigorously on the bed was the fact of the unending memory clip of the second hand embarrassment he experienced that was playing in his head since earlier.What did he do?Well, not only he felt guilty having a nosebleed in front of his colleague, which was bearable, because nosebleed are a common feat in summer, he also experienced the most embarrassing moment in his life, by crying, inelegantly, in front of a person he wasn't close to. He was caught up in the moment and even dared to make contact with none other than the person he despised, which was Ricky Kruger.He sat up ab

NoelIn the distance, the sound of crickets slowly died, as if giving him space to start his story."As the child born from the night, we have tremendous magic power in our bodies, parallel to our mystical title."Noel clenched both of his hands together and rested it on his lap."However, when we were born, our young bodies couldn't contain that magic power, so our creator decided to separate the magic power into someone else, that is our other half, the Sol."Irya' listened enthusiastically. Her small hands were clenched on her lap and she stopped eating the sweets.All the time, Noel explained to Irya' using "we, us, our...", because the child of night were born from the same pieces.Apart from having the same night colored hair and lunar grey eyes, one child of night won't live to meet another child, as one's death indicates the birth of another. Noel was the recent child of the night that was born.And Griselda, was his fi

Ricky"Oh...."Ricky staggered.In his hand, was a piece of paper written with huge and bubbly letter saying "Thank you. My name is Irya'." with a little heart at the end of the sentence.He stared, wondering whether this day was the best day of his life. Did he do anything good these past few days? He didn't bully anyone and didn't hook up with anyone so maybe that counts.Still, he brought the piece of paper close to his chest. He didn't care whether the sweets, along with the whole tray disappeared or something, what he knew is that he was happy that night.He then proceed to walk to the kitchen stove as he noticed a big pan was placed on it when he first entered the kitchen. He opened the lid."Tonight's dinner is grilled chicken, huh? That looks delicious."He grinned, excitedly looking at the mixture of largely cut chicken breast, potatoes and asparagus drizzled with olive oil and some black pepper. The surface was slight

NoelThe night was silent, while occasionally being accompanied by the gust of wind, the crickets sound slowly quiet down, as if admiring something.In a distance, a figure of a young man emerged. Although he only wore a casual outfit of a white long sleeved shirt paired with black trousers and grey long cardigan, the clothes didn't even smear the beauty that the man holds.He stepped along the empty sidewalk. In a distance, he looked ethereal, as if a spirit was trudging on the earth, sightseeing the beautiful night scenery of the mundane world.It was just Noel though.He sneezed when the cold summer wind hit him."Kuh.... It's so cold.... I wonder why I go out right now..." He grunted.Back home, he was having symptoms of unable to sleep, mainly because he couldn't settle down after gotten so much Mana in him. So he decided to take a walk to calm himself down and get him to get tired for easier sleep."I really should be car

NoelIn that moment, Noel knew very well that his covers were all blown. Ricky might have even be there when he fought that boy earlier, it's just Noel was too busy to even realize it. He might even see him casting some few spells so making excuses to escape the scene sounded impossible.Truly, impossible.Noel leered towards Ricky behind his fingers. He looked shocked, of course he will. No one expected that the nerd that was a target of bullying even on the first day of the university could be a mage.He brushed his long hair and flipped it backwards as he stared straight at Ricky."Yes, I am."He answered simply.Even if Ricky knew about him being abnormal, there's nothing that a mere mortal could do to him. A sudden thought of Ricky being his Sol resurfaced in his mind. He quickly shook it off as he clenched his fist. No, he's not his Sol.Not yet."Listen, you weren't supposed to know about this. So..."

HOWL!The blow of the horn from the student council room indicates the last day of the festival. As usual, students were busy working at their venue while trying to satisfy the mysteriously unending flow of visitors even though it was the last day.Shouldn't the last day be the time where visitors were the least? What's wrong with the algorithm?And as usual, the yearly race which allows visitors to participate and win prizes were held. Though, there might be some slight difference to it, thanks to the new student council president, Agatha Cassius' suggestion."How can they expect us, a group of boys to bake something?"Adam grunted.That year race, Agatha suggested that each venue will bake sweets using three different fruits and have the race participants guess them all in order to proceed to the next checkpoint."And 10 checkpoints at that? He’s crazy."Adam muttered again.Ricky was only able to nod his head we

RickyEven though the race had started, the haunted house still opened to accept visitors. It's just the number of the members managing the house were reduced to take care of the checkpoint. From what Ricky heard from the other members, some of the participants had reached their checkpoint and was playing the game that they had prepared.Ricky stood up as he gave the visitors a glowing bangle shaped stick and asked them to wear it on their wrist to avoid getting lost inside the haunted house. This was because apart from the premises that was built outside the building, their haunted house was the biggest inner premise in the university by renting a whole five tutorial rooms and merging them into their venue.The success of renting the spot was also due to Ricky's group members donation. Their group were actually just some spoiled rich kids who just like to extort money from others rather than asking from their parents.Yeah.Ricky sat on the chair

RICKY’S POV “What the hell…?” I mumbled, reaching out my fingers to the floating sentence in front of me. It was untouchable, judging from my hands that went through the words like waving through air. If this sentence in front of me cannot be touched, then does that mean it was only in my mind? Scratching my hand that was bitten by mosquitoes, I fluttered my eyes several times, trying to make sure I was not hallucinating. The words really appeared in my mind. Soon after that, the words started to fade away—slightly different from the games because it faded like the shadows or your reflection on the surface of the water that wavered because of something touching the surface. I got up from the sofa—still glueing my eyes to the disappearing words—and turned around to the sliding door after the sentence had fully disappeared from my eyes. Still fazed, this hands of mine moved by itself, tugging the metallic door and sliding it close. The same was

RICKY’S POVI feel betrayed in many ways than one.No, seriously.If there are people outside there that wished to learn the basics of magic, without having even an ounce of Mana Reserve inside them, I advice you to quit.Even for me, who posses a huge amount of Mana, so huge that I can even restore my soulmate’s Mana Reserve to their fullest, can’t even handle my Mana very well.“Focus. I can sense your breath faltering.”A voice resounded in my mind, making it’s way through my eardrums and of course, completely destroying the last bit of focus that I have inside me. I heaved a huge exasperated sigh that sounded more like a grunt and glanced towards the sky in frustration.“Val! Look, I am trying my best to focus here. Can you at least be quiet?”“....I wouldn’t call it a focus if your thoughts wandered somewhere.”I gasped in surprise.“You&

Oberon In the darkness, a distant chiming bell became his guide. He wondered why was he in this condition—being suddenly trapped in the darkness that he had no knowledge of right after coming from another world—even so, his body—heavy and numb—felt very hard to move. Oberon laid still and let himself surrender to the darkness. It was black—everywhere—is black, yet it felt warm and gentle. A kind darkness if he may assume. He slowly regained his strength when he felt something soft and furry touching his forehead. Immediately after his strength completely came back to him, Oberon gradually opened his eyes. When his view is clear, Oberon saw someone unfamiliar above him was stroking his hair. It was a beastman, but from their build

(MIDNIGHT BASKING)(After having dinner and resting a bit in the tent)RickySomehow, Ricky couldn’t seem to fall asleep. Despite him, Noel and Adam who have had a little too much fun night trekking and frolicking around the area after they have their dinner that he should have felt tired by it, Ricky didn’t feel it, the sleepiness nor the fatigue.However, contrary to him, Adam is sleeping like a log beside him. The frequency of his snores is like begging for Ricky to clam his mouth shut and probably gave him a smack or two on his forehead. What a lass, disturbing people with his loud snores.There’s a reason as to why Ricky is slightly irked by Adam’s snores in particulr at that very moment. For Ricky, he doesn’t care that much if his friend snores, make a 720 degree roll until his t-shirt became a top tank, or even perform an acrobatic movement in sleep while having the legs smush everything in it&rsqu

Oberon (Noel)“Your majesty!”Izfar opened the door of the dressing room while yelling for Oberon’s name. Inside the room, the maids were fitting Noel—who had already returned to his original body—with some oriental clothes imbued with several enchantments.“Hey, Izfar. Long time no see.” Oberon grinned.Izfar showed a relieved look. “Welcome back.”“I’m back.”They both exchanged smiles.Unfortunately, they didn’t have time to sit down and have a talk as Oberon was preparing for protection ceremony by Madam Ruzka before he again departed into a new world.After wearing the full outfit for the ceremony, he headed to the main hall, where Madam Ruzka had awaited him.Chants of spells filled the hall, infusing a pool that was located at the middle of the hall with mana. Upon completion, the pool glowed with a bright, turquoise color. Without delay

Where is he?”He darted his eyes around, searching for Ricky.“Hey.” A voice said, and he turned around.Ricky was sitting on a fallen tree trunk while crossing his legs lazily. He was holding his smartphone that had flashlight turned on and on his lap, the stacks of books were placed with one book on the top being opened by Ricky.“Took you long enough. I had already finished five chapters into the book. I even have to use a flashlight because the forest it too dark!”Ricky ranted. Noel was only able to laugh. He understood where Ricky was coming from, being left alone in a scary looking place and all.“I’m sorry.” Noel saidRicky sighed and ruffled his hair.He then stood up and brushed any dirt and dust from his clothes, before walking near Noel and handed him the three books.“Here.

Noel/RickyEvening quickly came by, yet they both still lazed around on the couch.Closing the novel book he read, Ricky apouted, “As I thought, you should really move into-”“I won’t.” Noel immediately cut in.The both of them sat still.“Ricky, there is something I would like to tell you.” Noel spoke after a long while of silence.“What is it?” Ricky who was leaning against the sofa now sat straight as he gave his full attention to Noel. Noel also sat straight, slightly hesitating his decision.“I...” He paused. “It is time for me to go, to leave earth and venture into a new world.”Ricky froze.In one moment, he looked as if he really wanted to oppose the idea; with him frowning and stuff, yet in the next moment, he fell into a deep thought.“…Go on then.”Noel blinked his eyes in confusion.

NoelIt was the morning right after the big incident involving the whole world. It was supposed to be a big incident, but no news were stating about it and nothing showed up in social media regarding that issue. Most importantly, the neighborhood was too quiet, no damages, no casualties, and not even… sadness?Ricky frowned while folding the laundries.“Ricky, if you frown like that, the house spirits will get scared.” Noel stepped near while holding a laundry basket in his arms.“Oh, sorry.”Ricky apologized to some house spirits that were trembling in fear of him. Noel sat on the carpeted floor near him and took out the laundries to fold. Then they both went silent except for the whirring sound of the washing machine inside the laundry room.“Noel.” Ricky called and Noel glanced at him. “Am I that scary?”Noel narrowed his eyes. “What’s with this sudden question?&rdq

RickyAfter somehow managed to reach Noel’s house, he entered the unlocked door. Looking around, the surroundings were quiet.Ricky leaned on the sofa in the living room, while staring blankly at the wooden ceiling. In his mind, scenes of what happened earlier replayed for countless of times. It was as if reminding him that his life had changed the moment he became the Sol of a person named Noel Kieran, or to be more precise, Oberon.He remembered it vividly, how Noel emitted such powerful aura when he destroyed the undead army in a single blow. He somehow managed to assert dominance, while also fully expressing his beauty in the moonlit background. Seeing him like that made Ricky wonder if he was able to be like him or not.He also wanted to protect Noel from any harm, not wanting to be the one to always be protected.But how can he became like that?His eyes darted in
