Kisses Under the Moonlight Chapter 17
WAVES echoed into the shore as they crashed while the wind howled. The sky had cleared, revealing the full moon. There were no houses built along the beach.Xurden stood on the side of the road under the light post, waiting for his assistant. He fixed his eyes on the rough water with his mind wandering off. After he left the cave, he couldn’t stop thinking about the demon. He had a lot of questions about who the demon was. But he couldn’t find an answer on his own. That’s why he planned on searching for him when he arrived home. For now, he had a burden on his shoulder and that was the two friends lying down, still unconscious on the bench beside him. He would make sure the two wouldn’t remember Yric. He would erase him from their memory together with what happened on that island. It was better that way for them.He turned to the road when a bright headlight coming from the bent hit his back. After a while, the black car stopped in his front. Sebastian went out immediately, not closin

THE SILENCE broke into the car as they drove onto the quiet highway. Muffled shouts echoed from the trunk, mirrored with loud thuds. Yric turned his head at the back, worried for his friends because Xurden wasn’t saying anything to his assistant. He looked him in the eye and spoke carefully.“Please, can you stop the car?” Yric begged the man. “It scared them waking up on a trunk.”Xurden took a deep breath. It showed on his dropping shoulder. He raised his other hand for his assistant. Sebastian immediately pressed the brake with his right foot, looking at Yric with apologetic eyes. The moment the car took a halt, Yric quickly move out and ran at the back. He put his feet under the trunk to open it up. His two friends looked at him without moving for a second to know who he was. Fear was visible all over their faces. When they realized it was him, Vivian began bawling her heart out.“What’s happened?” Noah asked. He gathered his composure. He first went out of the trunk while Vivian

THE NEIGHBOURHOOD where Yric was renting a room looked dead at night. There was no single soul walking in the street, even though it was still early. Most of the streetlights didn’t work, there were only a few which were still alive, but they flickered every minute. He took the minor road going up the hill, passing the opened store.No matter how tight he hugged himself, he was still shivering in the cold. He lost all his things which he brought going to the island. He only turned when he felt someone following on his back. His eye grew wide when the lights from the store and the nearest light posts died one by one, leaving the darkness behind.He ran like there was no tomorrow and almost tripped on scattered garbage. Luckily, Yric picked up his own balance and went on running until he reached the foot of the building, where he rented a room. The apartment was five stories, which looked old even in the dark. He went in through the front door and pressed the elevator next to it. The el

THE DRIVE took them half an hour to reach the large house, hiding behind high walls covered with green crawling figs. The structure looked old from the outside and Xurden made it out of bricks. Windows were thick glasses and tall.Xurden spent millions to build a house that couldn’t be called home, even though he’s been staying there ever since the higher gods sent him to earth. The gate opened on its own the moment the car face it. Sebastian carefully drove the car inside. The house didn’t have a wide yard; the space was just enough for the car to pass through. Yric stared at the house like it was his first time seeing that kind of house.The car entered another door and took the hallway going down the basement. Xurden owned ten cars in different models, including the one he’s using. They lined up in two columns, taking most of the area below ground. Sebastian parked the car he was driving at the end of the line without bumping the other cars. The moment the engine died, Xurden went

XURDEN didn’t plan to go out, but he found himself on top of the closest building to where Yric was waiting. He could see clearly how Yric stood in the corner. Yric looked uneasy with his fingers fidgeting to his side. He even glanced from left to right to check on something. No one could blame the younger guy. The neighborhood where they were wasn’t a safe place at all, even though Xurden lives there. There were few sightings of demons but humans were dangerous also that could kill you anytime. It was easier for crime to happen there because the residents were rich. He couldn’t understand why Yric had to walk a couple of blocks just to pick up the delivery. He thought Yric was up to something, which was the main reason he followed him without revealing himself. Yric hugged himself as the cold numbed his skin.“How long is he going to wait?” Xurden complained to himself. “In what store he ordered that it took so long to deliver?”As he said those words, a bright light flashed from the

THE SKY outside had cleared as if last night there were no disturbances in the weather. It was also blue, but an air of melancholy was there dancing with the wind carrying thin clouds. Early morning sunlight slipped through the glass window, hitting on the black table of the office where Xurden sat quietly reading a book. He flipped a page after he reached the end of a chapter. His white shirt seemed to glow in the early light.A knock on the door didn’t stop him, his attention still glued to the book. The door opened after the knock and Sebastian peeked through the door without letting a foot in. Sebastian wore a colorful shirt that made his face a year younger.“What is it, boss?” Sebastian said, holding the doorknob. “Do you need anything?”“Check on him if he’s still alive. If he is, wake him up and tell him to come here. He’s been sleeping since the other night.”“Who?” Confusion wrote on Sebastian’s face.Xurden raised his head and threw his assistant daggers. “Are you really as

NOISE filled the public market that wasn’t pleasing to Xurden’s ears. People talked so loud and a few of the store owners shouted, even though they were close to each other. Consumers walked in different directions, checking up on goods in every store. The crowd made the day hotter than it was before early in the morning.Xurden waited for his assistant to arrive on the side of the road. Sebastian fetched Yric so that the younger guy could start observing them while they do their job. It has been an hour since he ordered Sebastian and they were not there yet. He was getting pissed off as another minute passed by. He didn’t want to use the door just to get Yric because the younger guy needed to learn how to move from one place to another without relying on anyone. People passing by looked at him, but he just ignored them.He was about to call Sebastian when he finally saw them walking toward to where he was. Yric was walking beside Sebastian, half awake. The younger guy was even brushi

THE DEMON growled loudly, spreading her tentacles fast that only point in one direction. Xurden had thought that this kind of creature didn’t even learn a single thing. They forgot exorcists that could face them existed everywhere, and he was the one who was best at it since he was a god. Demons always thought they were more powerful, which made them blind to the truth. That’s why Xurden didn’t have a hard time dealing with her. As the tentacles get closer, he raised his hand, releasing ice spikes from the bloody floor. The spikes stopped the tentacles from moving, which made the demon shriek aloud. Xurden didn’t hold back, and he sent a bigger spike toward the demon hitting her stomach where she hid her heart. The demon vomited dark blood from her non-visible mouth.“This can’t be happening,” the demon said while she looked straight at Xurden. “Why I didn’t know there was someone like you here in this city?”“The answer is simple. No one can remember me. And if someone remembers me,

A salty wind blew from his left, whistling through the houses lining that one side of the beach. By late afternoon, that wind would breathe cool air, carrying with it the stench of the mudflats. The waves had already calmed down, giving this serene feeling aligned to the horizon. From where he was sitting, on the balcony of his two-story house, he could see everything that was happening in the white sand. There was a group of men drinking under the shade of the umbrella. Next to those men was a family sitting on the soft sand with no mats under them. Aside from those people close to his house, other humans scattered along the beach, going on with their life while seagulls cried in the air just above.It wasn’t out of the ordinary that many people flocked to the beach, admiring the solemnity and beauty. The month of December brought a lot of visitors to different places. He was now used to it, seeing people ever since Yric died, and that sorrowful day happened four years ago. He adjust

He touched his head violently to deny the reality. His mind had stopped working. He couldn’t think of anything else other than the fading body of Yric. They both expected that there would be death. What he didn’t predict was the outcome of his fight with the deity.Once again, he questioned himself about being a god. He was a powerful god, but he failed to protect the most special person in his life. Yric and he didn’t get to spend a lot of time with each other which made his feeling worst. He could feel the pain building in his chest, drilling his new heart. The result of the exchange formed different pain. Saying goody to goodbye to Yric really hurt him badly. It was a fact that he could not forget even to his own death.The two leaders looked down at him. The expressions in their eyes never changed even a bit. But they were full of judgment, searching for all mistakes that he did to add up the sin he had made. After a while, the king shifted his attention to the demon lord.“What i

The deity disappeared in a blink of an eye and appeared in front of him only a few inches away. He quickly blocked the attack with his sword, putting strength in the blade. The powerful punch of the deity touched his sword, creating a sound wave. Their clash turned the entire room into chaos, making the ceiling fall and breaking the walls. He pushed the deity harder, but the deity wouldn’t even budge even a little. He then sent his ice from his sword, starting with the hand to freeze the deity. His enemy was also fast to respond. The deity raised his other free hand, transforming his fingers into a sharp blade. When he realized the deity was about to stab him to the side, he stepped back to dodge.Fortunately, he escaped death as he stood alert. To calm his nerve, he took a deep breath. From that moment on, it would not be easy facing the deity. He had to put everything in one attack to defeat him. If he let the fight longer, he would only get tired. With that thought in mind, he held

Xurden woke up in a searing pain drilling his head. The moment he opened his eyes, he found himself in the very middle of the dome underground. They tied his hands in golden chains attached to two dark pillars, making his wrist numb and burned. His skin had now red wounds. At the brief movement he made, he winced crazily. He couldn’t think of a way to free himself because the chains had drained all of his strength.He moved his head to look around, only to find nothing. He was alone and all he could see were the dark corners of the dome that the light of the torches stuck on the walls couldn’t reach. The runes written on the floor beneath were noticeable as they glowed in red. He understood what was really happening. The demon planned on taking over his body using that ceremony.He turned his head to the right when dark smoke appeared a few inches away from him. In that smoke, Jake came out and walked toward him. Every step the professor took seemed different to his eyes. When he stud

They all got into the car as the traffic got heavier. The loud honking of cars never stopped ringing in his ears. The side mirrors almost rubbed together in that traffic jam. His servants sat down on his left while he remained on the other side. Arasia took the passenger’s seat quietly and Jake concentrated on driving. The silence inside the car didn’t last long. Sebastian couldn’t hold his mouth. His servant turned his attention to him. “Boss, why are you with him?” Sebastian asked. Jake heard clearly who was in front. Xurden observed the questioning look of his servant. “It’s because of her,” he answered. He moved his head a little toward the goddess. W “Are they together?” Sebastian said next. Xurden didn’t expect that Sebastian would say those words. He forgot Sebastian’s mind ran differently. His servant’s imagination could be wild sometimes. The moment that one question entered Arasia’s ear, she turned around with a frown on her face. She stared at Sebastian before she spo

Xurden woke up from his sleep feeling refreshed on the side of the bed. His hand immediately looked for Yric while his eyes were still closed. But he didn’t feel him. He could only grab the empty sheet next to him. When he realized the younger boy wasn't there, he got up in a rush and got off the bed. He moved his eyes around the room, looking for a sign of the younger boy. Unfortunately, there was no sign of Yric, which made him worry. A second later, he closed his eyes, heightening all his senses. But he didn’t sense him even a bit. In the end, he accepted the reality that Yric wasn’t there on the mountain.As he was about to go out of the room, he noticed a note on the small table beside the bed. He picked it up after reading the message that Yric left for him. His forehead furrowed because of what Yric wrote on it. The message made him frustrated. Yric went on with his plan facing Veronica without bringing him along. Now that he was in that situation, alone in the mountain, he wou

THE STORM had stopped on the mountaintops, making everything clear in Yric’s eyes from where he was standing at the mouth of the cave. All he could see was the thick snow that wouldn’t melt all year long. He was wearing thick fur to fight the surrounding cold. He left Xurden asleep inside his old house because he was waiting for his servants to arrive. Just as he was thinking about them, he could see movements below a hundred meters away from him. He saw his three servants climbing up the slope. All of them were wearing dark coats. When Tear waved his hand, he walked out of the cave and slid down toward his servants without using a tool to make his slide smooth. He used his body effectively and arrived in front of the three that stopped climbing.“You better have good news for me,” he told the three as he stood up. He removed the snow which clang on the fur.The three looked at each other before Drop spoke up. “We’re very sorry. Celestro escaped the dungeon,” the demon said and quickl

THEY LAY down on the ground, looking up at the night sky. The stars seemed to fade away from their eyes while the cold of the breezing wind touched their skin. Around them, the silence was deafening. They could hear each other calm breathing. Xurden didn’t know for how long they stayed quiet. They only admired the serene scene above them. Yric broke the silence after a while. “How are the things there?” the young boy asked without turning his head. “It’s the same,” Xurden said to him. “Nothing had changed ever since I left.” He didn’t tell him about acquiring the seat from his older brother. But he felt like Yric sensed it, which was shown in his next words. “Even in your family?” Yric lay down on his side. The younger boy stared at his face. Xurden also did the same, meeting Yric’s questioning eyes. He hesitated for a second, but when he thought there was no point if he would hide it from him, he finally spoke about them. “Why do you ask?” he said to him first. “I just want to k
Kisses Under the Moonlight Chapter 91
THEY WENT directly to his older brother’s house, Mikael, after they returned to the floating city. The guards stopped them at the gate. He froze them in thick ice when they tried to rush toward him. They entered the gate with no problem. His two servants carried the man with his hands tied. They had to walk through the wide lawn before reaching the main house. The other guards came out. They ran towards them. With just a flick of his hand, they froze after being covered in thick ice. They reached the main house and no one else stopped them. He kicked the door to open it. He found his older brother having fun with three girls in the bath he had placed near the door. “What are you doing here?” his brother asked him with anger in his voice. Because of his arrival, the three women ran out of the water and entered a room. He pulled the man they were carrying and kicked him to fall into the bath. “What do you think you’re doing?” His older brother stood up in the bath because of his ang
