Chapter 256: Lightly
Arlen’s eyes gradually turned red and there was a mischievous expression in his eyes, "What should I do? I am a young human male in my 20s. It is a natural reaction."
Ravi had been to over a hundred worlds and had met over a hundred races so he could be qualified enough to say this. Getting aroused was definitely not a natural reaction to killing intent.
His expression must have said a lot because Arlen chuckled, "I am not planning to do anything this morning, don’t worry."
"Do you feel sorry for me?" He did not feel sorry for himself anymore. For a long time he felt like he was walking on a single plank bridge that was on the verge of collapse and each time his foot stepped on the air, he believed he was going to fall and his bones and body would be smashed. But the greatest fear was not from the dangers below, it was the uncertainty in front.
Where was he going? Why was he still walking? Can he stop now? Or maybe if he continued forward, would he see something worth walking for.
If Ravi could meet his past self he would nod. Keep walking, there is a very handsome and kind lover called Arlen, there is a sensitive, talented, and sweet child called Asher, there is the troublesome Sage, the Smart Lana, and the all too-knowing Malik.
Arlen was quiet. How could he not? Perhaps he should feel more proud of the glory that his lover had amassed throughout the centuries but all he felt was sorrow. He wished he had been there, even if he could not help, at least he could be with him. Holding his hand, protecting him.
Ravi had suffered so much. He had not even met the Sentinel Elders or the Immortals but it was safe to say that he hated them. He hated all of them. And he did not use that word lightly.
"Would you be upset if I felt sorry for you?"
