In Valerius Castle,
Cassian listened to every detail from the kneeling envoy. He tapped his fingers on the armrest . A completely new one, because he'd cracked the last.
His voice was loud. "Has he gone mad? Doesn't he know we can't interfere in the conflict between humans and the Beast Empire?"
He clenched his fist in agony, his expression fierce. A shadow standing beside him said, "My lord, perhaps young Lord Margrave Aleric has some plan in mind."
Cassian sneered. "What plan could he have? He should know I can't override our family rules. If we let those beastmen villagers stay in our archduchy, we'll have to face the royal family."
"Does he know how fragile the relationship between the two families is?"
"Those ancient rules in our family even my father can't change them."
Remembering his father, his whole body shook with fear. Although he was the current Archduke of the Valerius family, his father was still alive . Lucian Valerius, known as King Valerius throughout the Empire. A king with a title granted by the Imperium itself. Even the Imperium feared him, the only one in the family to master all eight forms of Valerius swordsmanship except the only ninth form.
Cassian continued, "My father is missing. Even I don't know where he is. If Aleric still wants to take those villagers under his wing after knowing the family rules, then he should face the consequences too…"
The shadow sighed. He was the second-in-command of the Valerius troops, the strongest after the Duke. Ignis Veyran, a level 90 Wizard. One of the seven Divine Elemental users, known as the Fire Lord.
Meanwhile, back at the academy, Jacob and Silas returned to their room, but Rhys hadn't come back with Kael. Draven and Theron went to their own rooms with heavy hearts. They wanted to spend more time with their boyfriends, and even though they'd meet again in a few hours, they still felt sad.
Elsewhere, Kael and Rhys were still on the street. Kael was trying to coax Rhys, holding his hand. "Wait! Wait! Rhys, you've been mad at me since this morning. I know I was wrong, can you please forgive me?"
Rhys pouted. "No! Not until you apologize properly and promise to never do that again."
Not knowing what else to do, Kael dropped to the ground right there on the road and grabbed Rhys's leg. The people around them started to stare, looking at him with pity.
Rhys's whole body flushed with embarrassment, his face turning bright red. Hearing the murmurs around them, he gritted his teeth and hissed at Kael, "If you don't stand up..."
Before he could finish, Kael grinned. "Not until you forgive me. Hehe…"
Rhys grabbed his head with one hand. "Stand up! I forgive you. But don't you ever do that again."
Kael immediately jumped to his feet, looked at the crowd, and said, "Go on, the show's over! Shoo, shoo."
Even Rhys was ashamed of Kael's behavior. Seeing that the couple had reconciled, the onlookers went back to their own business.
Kael and Rhys returned to the apartment building. Rhys was about to leave Kael at his door, since he had to buy some things from the canteen and Kael's apartment was on the way.
But Kael suddenly grabbed his hand and pulled him inside the room.
He pushed Rhys against the door, trapping him in his arms, and meticulously slid the lock shut.
Rhys felt Kael's warm breath on his face, and his heart started beating frantically. His own breath grew heavy. "What… what are you doing, Kael?" he gasped.
Kael leaned in close, kissing Rhys's neck, then his ear. Rhys felt like his heart could jump out of his chest at any moment. Kael brought his lips to Rhys's ear and whispered, "You ignored me for the whole day, my love. Don't you think you owe me some compensation?"
He immediately locked his lips with Rhys's, kissing him deeply. Without waiting for a response, his tongue slipped past Rhys's lips, crazily exploring his mouth.
Rhys stopped resisting. He couldn't control himself either. Even though he'd ignored Kael all day, he loved him just as much as Kael loved him. He bit Kael's lip, just hard enough to send a jolt of pleasure, not pain, through him. He devoured Kael's lips and at the same time, met Kael's tongue with his own.
Lost in their hungry, endless kiss, they paid no attention to the time. Kael slid a hand under Rhys's shirt, his fingers rubbing against his warm skin. Rhys moaned in pleasure.
Rhys could feel himself growing hard, painfully constrained inside his pants, sometimes pushing against Kael's body.
Kael smirked, feeling Rhys's erection. He broke the kiss and rested his forehead against Rhys's. They were both breathing heavily.
"My love," Kael panted, "do you want to move forward, or should we stop here? Because if you say so, I can send you to heaven right now…"
He smirked again and grabbed Rhys's erection through his pants.
Rhys let out a soft moan. "Mmmhm… please…"
Kael moved suddenly, kneeling before Rhys. Rhys looked down, dumbfounded; he thought Kael might just use his hands. But Kael leaned forward, his mouth brushing against him through the fabric of his pants.
A hard moan escaped Rhys's lips. "Ahh! Kael, stop!"
But even as he spoke, his own hands were moving, pressing Kael's head closer.
Kael chuckled, looking up at him. "But your hands are saying something different, Rhys."
Rhys looked at him, biting his lip. He knew it was true, but what could he do? If he let Kael continue, he might not be able to stop.
Kael asked again, "Just tell me, my love. Do you want it or not?"
Rhys stared into Kael's seductive eyes for a few seconds before giving a small, desperate nod.
With deft hands, Kael stripped away Rhys's pants and underwear, revealing his throbbing erection. He leaned forward again, taking Rhys into the warmth of his mouth.
A wave of pure pleasure crashed over Rhys. It felt like heaven. This was his first time, and he'd never imagined someone would do this for him. He looked down at Kael with difficulty, his hands tangling in Kael's hair, guiding him. With every movement, his mind grew cloudier, his heart hammering against his ribs. He moaned continuously as Kael showed him no mercy, his mouth moving with precision.
Suddenly, after what felt like an eternity, a powerful jolt shot through him. He moaned loudly, trying to pull back. "Ahhh! Kael! I… I'm going to…"
Before he could finish, Kael pressed closer, and Rhys's world dissolved. "…release," he finished, looking down at Kael in a daze.
Kael got to his feet. Rhys stammered, "You! You! Did you just…?"
Kael didn't let him finish, capturing his lips in another fiery kiss. Even after his release, Rhys was lost in it for what felt like another fifteen minutes, until they finally separated, breathless.
They both gasped for air for a moment. Kael looked at Rhys and chuckled. "How was it?"
Rhys hid his face in Kael's shoulder and mumbled, "It… it was good. But why did you do that?"
Kael chuckled, cupping Rhys's face in his hands. He looked into his eyes and kissed him gently for another two minutes. "Because I felt like it," he said. "I felt like I needed your love, your…"
Rhys didn't let him say any more, pressing his lips to Kael's again. This time, Rhys initiated the kiss, and they were lost in it for at least five more minutes.
"Do you want to continue?" Kael asked. "We need to go on that dungeon raid, remember?"
At that moment, Rhys remembered. He checked his watch and gasped, "Damn it, Kael, we're late! We only have thirty minutes to get ready!" He pushed Kael away and rushed to the bathroom.
Kael followed him. "Babe, why are you going to the bathroom to change? I've already seen everything." He slipped into the bathroom with him.
Inside the dorm, Jacob and Silas waited for Rhys, but he still hadn't shown up. It was already time to leave for the dungeon raid.
Just then, a gentle knock sounded at the door. Silas opened it to find Draven and Theron, ready to go. Earlier that evening, they had all submitted leave applications for the next day's classes, so they could raid the dungeons all night without worrying about school.
Silas told Draven, still confused, "Rhys isn't back at the dorm yet."
Theron commented, "Maybe he's with Kael? I doubt Kael would let him return to his own room… haha." Jacob elbowed Theron to shut him up, though he wasn't wrong. They all wished they could take their boyfriends back to their own rooms.
At that moment, Kael and Rhys walked up to the dorm together. Silas sighed in relief after seeing Rhys was okay, then a mischievous grin spread across his face. He walked over to Rhys and whispered in his ear, "Did you devour him, my friend?"
Rhys tried to slap Silas on the back, but Silas slipped away to stand beside Draven, grinning. There was nothing Rhys could do. He could never beat Silas; it had been like that since childhood.
"Then let's go," Draven said.
Kael and Theron led them to the same secret passage that Draven and Silas had used before, and all six of them left the academy together.
After leaving the academy, they entered the forest and searched for a suitable dungeon until they found a high-level E-rank one. Silas and Draven immediately lost interest, but for Rhys and Jacob, it was their first time seeing one. They stared at the huge, rotating purple vortex before entering the dungeon together.
Silas suggested, "Why don't Draven, Kael, Theron, and I just watch? Rhys and Jacob can fight the monsters. We'll help if they need it, but if they don't fight alone, they won't learn anything."
Kael, Theron, and Draven nodded in agreement.
It was a cave dungeon full of snake monsters. Rhys and Jacob moved with precision. Rhys drew his sword with sophisticated moves and started cutting down one snake after another. Jacob used his water element, creating water blades just as he'd learned in class to slice through the monsters.
They continued until every snake in the cave was killed. As a reward, they received vials of snake venom. The experience was a great advantage for them both; Rhys reached level 9, and Jacob reached level 8.
After collecting the vials of snake venom, they all came to the boss room. Before them stood a huge stone door carved with the pattern of a giant snake. Rhys and Jacob pushed the heavy door open and entered.
Inside, they saw a massive snake, at least level 14. It was a Blue Venom Snake, a monster known for its particularly deadly venom.
