They did this and that, all the shameful things he couldnât bear to say.
Last night Yul begged Mikael to spare him and begged him that he couldnât do it anymore. But Mikael didnât stop, he started with se and ended with x until they saw the sun rise in the morning.
By morning, no more voices came out. It was only after Mikael pulled out the thing that he had been digging into Yul all along that Yul lost consciousness so quickly that he didnât even know if he had passed out or was asleep.
â⦠Th- The underworldâ¦â
Just before falling asleep, he seemed to see a white-faced man wearing a black hat and a traditional Korean coat. No, he was sure he saw it.
âWhat a shameful way to die, a coition death. Tsk.â
It seemed that the grim reaper who was holding the list said this.
Anyway, when he opened his eyes, he saw a familiar ceiling. Yul slowly turned his head, thinking that the scenery was quite familiar for a world of the underworld.
âWoke up?â
A kind voice melted into his ears. Yul blinked blankly and wondered why his voice could be heard even from the underworld.
Was he dead too, but thereâs no way that gwanggong will die a coition death1⦠Then that would be gwanggong disqualification.
âWhy are you looking like that?â
â⦠Iâm⦠lossâ¦â
âIâm at a loss.â
Even these short words did not come out properly and splintered like firewood hit by an axe. It was because of crying and moaning all night.
Mikael, noticing Yulâs situation, poured a glass of water and brought it to him.
Even though Yulâs body could not move, he struggled to get up, thinking that he would die if he didnât drink water. But Mikael grabbed Yuri by the shoulder and pressed him down, bringing the water to his mouth.
As he was wondering âIsnât this the water you were going to give me?â, but at the moment when he was about to get angry, Mikaelâs lips came to Yulâs. Then, little by little, the water flowed from his mouth to Yul.
The water flowed into his sore throat, relieving the pain little by little. Feeling cool and refreshed, Yul hugged Mikaelâs back as if begging for more and whispered at the distance where their lips met.
âGive me more. Iâm thirsty.â
Mikael smiled softly, then he slightly loosened Yuriâs arms that were holding him and transferred water in his mouth again. Then he kissed Yuri again.
The two kissed under the guise of drinking water until the glass of water was empty.
âMikael, I think Iâm dead.â
âNo way.â
âI canât be alive. How could you?â
Yul, who was barely alive, began to babble. What had been muttered like a complaint gradually turned into resentment.
Mikael knew this, but he just smiled lazily and looked at the blue eyes staring at him.
âWhat did I do?â
âI told you to stop! I told you I couldnât do it anymore!â
âYou were doing fine, were there any problems?â
âThen it keeps coming in, what should I do? And when I tried to take it out, Mikhail grabbed my pelvis and held it down! I canât even run away!â
âIsnât that obvious? Thereâs no way Iâm going to let you get away.â
âOh, you could have let go a little! Do you know how much it hurts? It seems like all the organs are pushed up, but it keeps coming in. I canât do it anymore, but I want to keep doing it!â
âHmm, that sounds better when you say it like that. Did you feel that way?â
âGyaaaaaagh! I didnât mean it in that sense!â
Yul screamed in disgust at Mikaelâs words. At the same time, Yul read impurity in his brightly shining red eyes, and instinctively grabbed the blanket with both hands and tightly wrapped it around his reddened naked body.
Then, Mikael couldnât help but laugh at the cute sight.
He was cute during the day, but at night, he clung to me and begged me to spare him with a stimulating voice.
Since it was his first time, he thought he should take it easy, but when he heard Yuriâs moans, his initial resolve disappeared.
When he came to his senses, it was morning, and Yuri couldnât even open his eyes properly, swaying with his movements.
Seeing him, he couldnât help but hold back even if he wanted to do more. It was because he was worried that something would happen to his body, which was already skinny.
He stayed by his side the whole time, wiping his bodily fluids from his body and waiting anxiously for him to wake up.
Fortunately, when he opened his eyes and saw that he was talking, he was relieved that he was worth living.
The whole night felt like a dream. Even though he knew in his head that it wasnât a dream, his heart did. He was anxious, and more anxious, and he felt like he was going crazy. It was because he couldnât believe that such a lovely person was his lover, and the fact that he was by his side felt like a lie.
So while wiping Yuriâs body, he carefully touched his body. Every time his body temperature passed through his hands reassured Mikael.
Itâs not a dream. He neither disappeared nor went away. The fact was so comforting that he even wanted to cry.
He wondered when was the last time he felt the need to cry in his life. Maybe it was then, when his parents died.
It was scary. He was happy because of Yuri, he was going crazy because of that, but he wanted to cry because he was anxious because of it.
Mikael hid his unspeakable emotions behind and looked at Yuriâs face, which still had an unspeakable expression. Yuriâs blue eyes were filled with all sorts of emotions.
âNoisy, be quiet.â
âI didnât say anything!â
âYour eyes are noisy.â
âHa! Iâve never heard of such novel nonsense! What does it mean to have noisy eyes?! Of course, I have a lot to say! Would you have done that if you had a lot to say?!â
âYour mouth is noisy now.â
Yulâs blue eyes were full of resentment because of Mikael, who turned over his words casually. Regardless, Mikael seemed to be carefree, so Yul got even more agitated.
His back was already hurting to death, he couldnât bear to talk about it, and he was dying of numbness, but Mikaelâs being mean to him made him even more angry. He was about to open his mouth, determined to say something harsh.
Knock knock.
âArchduke, this is Levi. His Majesty the Emperor told me to deliver it as it is, so Iâm delivering it to you so please excuse my rudeness. âIf you donât come out right away, Iâll break down the door to get in.ââ
Leviâs voice came through the door. Yul almost burst out laughing at his voice that showed effort to imitate Andreiâs voice.
âIâll be coming out, so tell him to wait just a little longer.â
âI knew you would say that. Iâll count to ten. Open the door in it or Iâll break it.â
This time, it wasnât Andreiâs voice that Levi was clumsily imitating, but his actual voice. Andreiâs voice was exasperated, perhaps because he was very angry.
Surprised Yul looked at Mikael, wondering what was going on, and he opened his mouth with a dissatisfied expression.
âHow can the emperor of an empire be so impatient?â
âI think it shows a lot if I can show this much patience in front of an Archduke who makes the emperor of an empire wait for four hours. And Mikael, five seconds have passed since youâve been talking nonsense. Now letâs count the remaining five. six.â
âGasp, four hours? You made His Majesty wait four hours?! Are you crazy?â
âI couldnât help it because you were sleeping.â
âNo, you can just leave me to sleep anyway!â
âWouldnât you feel sad if you woke up like this after the first night?â
âAh, stop talking about that! You must pack your bags and⦠tidy up your room neatly.â
Yul, who was about to say, âYou must pack your bags and run away now!â, saw Mikaelâs expression grow cold, and quickly changed his words.
In front of gwanggong, he almost forgot that he shouldnât even say the start of the words ârun awayâ.
âAnyway, Iâll be going. You rest.â
âYep. Even if you tell me not to rest, I have no choice but to rest. I canât move my body.â
At Yulâs blunt words, Mikael smiled a little. Then, for some reason, he approached the door, where a chill seemed to blow through it.
âIâm at the door right now, so whether itâs a hammer or an axe, put it down anyway.â
âYou know so well.â
Andrei snorted from beyond the door.
Mikael shrugged lightly and opened the door. Yul quickly pulled up the blanket to the top of his head and barely peeked his eyes out.
The scenery seen through the door was a scene of Andrei standing with a huge axe of unknown origin.
* * *
âWhat the hell is going on? Just wait in moderation and then go.â
Moving to the drawing room, Mikael clicked his tongue as he saw Andrei with his eyes burning in front of him. Then, sensing an unusual atmosphere, he narrowed his eyes.
â⦠It has to do with Yuri.â
âYou know very well. Yes, itâs about that cute fellow.â
Mikaelâs expression froze coldly at Andreiâs answer.
