Soul Karmas

"Noel, you…!"

It seemed that seeing Snow appearance has cause Ange to become flustered and frantic to the point that a golden bow made of light power has suddenly appeared in his hands before shooting in his direction without any warning.

And it was completely the reaction of someone being guilty or wanting to hide something or either trying to remove the cause of their uncomfortable feeling, which Snow has secretly note while in the arms of the blonde man.

"Hey!"

"What are you doing!"

Lisette and Arnold have quickly shouted in great alarm after seeing the young man in the distance have suddenly attacked with his light power before suddenly stopping the light that glowed in their hands in order to create a shield made of light in front of their friend and the young kid.

After all, Lisette and Arnold remember that their friend can perfectly handle the unexpected situation without their help.

And just like what they believed, Claude has quickly enveloped the young kid in a more protective gesture while a hard glint has flash on his sky blue eyes after noticing the fact that the arrow target was the person in his arms.

"Hey, who are you to shout and attacking my partner huh? Just because some people began to worship you like some kind of 'God' doesn't mean that you can bully my Noel!"

Claude with a terrible look on his beautiful face has easily caught the light arrow that was about to hit the person in his arms before a loud crack has resounded out when the light arrow has completely broken apart with just a slight pressure of his beautiful fingers.

It seemed that everyone has forgotten a particular fact, although Claude has been famous because of the unusual blessing that the food he made, but its also true that he wasn't only a chef but also a halfling that can use his light power to attack.

"... partner?"

Ange couldn't help but murmur that single word in complete disbelief along with confusion in his eyes, which has instantly widen when a sudden long needle made of light power was abruptly thrown his way by the well-known person in the distance.

However, a figure has swiftly appeared before Ange and has stopped the attack with a shield made with dark power, although a small crack still appears upon the shield causing the person that has protected Ange to stumble backward while letting out a harsh cough.

"Brian!"

"... Ange… I'm alright… just calm down…"

Brian that has been silent the whole time has remained calm and steady even after seeing the familiar face of their friend that they have betrayed, however, unlike Ange who has been confused and flustered, he was able to calmly observe the unusualness of the entire situation.

Especially after seeing the change of appearance and age of their friend, particularly the lack of dark atmosphere around his tiny figure, there is definitely something amiss about the entire situation.

"I apologize for Ange brazen action. It seemed that the person in your arms looks familiar to our friend that has unfortunately become a fallen and couldn't help but instinctively react in a violent manner."

Brian has taken a gentle hold of Ange's hand in a pacifying manner while showing his ability on being able to handle any situation in a calm manner and having excellent patience more than anyone else because of the experience of regularly staying in bed most of his life.

However, it seemed that Brian has underestimated the unreasonable personality of the well-known person in their organization since other numerous golden long needles have once more thrown their way causing Brian's eyes to widen in shock while Ange has let out a cry of alarm.

Crack!

Soon Brian's dark shield has finally broken apart by the golden long needles that appeared weak in appearance yet it seemed that it was far powerful than Ange attack.

And shortly, a golden long needles have finally landed and hit Brian's shoulder causing crimson blood to be spilled with while another golden long needle that was about to hit the pale face Ange has missed its target when Brian has decisively sacrificed his hand in order to save Ange from being hurt.

"Claude! Stop! Just because you are more powerful doesn't mean that you could bully them!"

"Yeah! Don't hurt Brian and Ange! Or are you secretly insecure and wanted to deal with them now in order to remain the one at the top?"

"Huh, you guys don't make any sense. Who attacks us first huh? Do you mean that I could not attack back after witnessing my partner being targetted by him? Well, unlike you guys that don't seem to care if your partner got attack by someone but I'm different. No one can bully or even hurt a single strand of my partner hair for as long as I'm alive."

Claude has given a nasty stare at the other people that have come along with the two young men when the cracked space appeared before beginning to spout such stupid nonsense in a righteous manner.

"And can you guys stop mentioning about being jealous and wanting to always remain on top? I don't need such a rank, I'm perfectly content staying in my kitchen unless I need to leave to do important matter. Jeeze, If you want it so badly then just take it. I can live without it."

Letting out an annoying huff, Claude has finally turned his attention at the silent kid in his arms after making sure that those two annoying young men in the distance wouldn't do anything, while also putting them to his blacklist after targetting his partner.

Damn, Claude has just got his partner in a few minutes and someone was trying to hurt him, the nerve of those guys! So with all wicked planned flashing in his mind, he has begun to gently pat the small back of the young child in great comfort.

"Hey my partner, are you alright? Don't be scared, Big Brother Claude will always protect you, no one can easily bully you like that, especially when trying to hurt or kill you since I'll remove them first before they can even try doing it. Anyway, do you want me to beat them up more? Just tell me and I'll gladly do it."

Snow couldn't help but blink his murky brown eyes after witnessing such protective actions while defending him without any single hesitation particularly after hearing such declaration that completely conforms in his taste.

Somehow, Snow can understand a bit of why his previous self that has memories has like this person to the point of wanting to make him his other half for a long time, nonetheless, having lost his true heart, Snow only felt a ting of warm on the temporary human heart he got during the pure race mission.

"...they said I'm a fallen…"

Claude couldn't help but let out a snort, particularly glaring to the two young men that have been paying attention in their direction which he has secretly taken notice of before began to soothe and pacify his partner in his arms.

"Please, you are obviously a dark halfling. Besides, even if you are one, then it's definitely their fault why you have become a fallen, after all, I'm sure that my partner shouldn't be easily tainted by the vile aura unless being schemed, so Brian and Ange, tell me, is Noel the one you know off?"

Despite the fact that Snow has already mentioned that he remembers being bullied by them, Claude has completely disregarded that fact, particularly when there is a high chance of him being the person that those two young men have mentioned before.

So are you telling me that… even if I'm a hateful fallen that the three realms loathe the most…but you still want me?

Snow couldn't help but let go of the hands gripping the man shirt before finally wrapped his arms around the blonde man neck while also leaning his head closer to it while hiding the small smile on his face

So unreasonable and free-spirited to the point of being so lovely…

Although Ange's reactions were in Snow prediction, particularly the fact about mentioning their friend being a fallen, nonetheless, the two young men don't have evidence to point out that he was a fallen since he was an absolutely human during this time.

Especially the fact that the two of them have kept secret about the real identity of Noel and how he has gotten in the Realm of the Mortal for the whole three years.

Every Demon and Angel that accidentally arrive in the Realm of the Mortal needed to be quickly informed to the GS organization and the fact that the two of them have kept the secret for too long will give them great trouble despite how they seemed to be treated well after being known as a halfling couple with opposite power.

If Brian and Ange reveal about Snow true identity right now then he will reveal about the fact that the two of them have forcefully taken his heart, especially when the matter of his broken heart somewhere in the Realm has also remained hidden.
