A/N: Sighhhhhh Idk what to say anymore. Btw! If y'all have like some kind of writing thing for me please don't ask me for my email address as I am just writing this for fun cuz I saw a comment from the chapter called author. However, I appreciate you guys supporting my story. And also thank you for 9 votes and 122 reads. 🥹

No one POV:

"Zenith."

"Hm?"

"You went down to see a human again. Didn't you."

"I'm pretty sure I snuck out without anyone noticing."

"Zenith! This can't go on forever!"

"..."

"Zenith. I know you miss him. However! He's been through death multiple times because of you! Do you want his suffering to continue forever?! He was once a supreme god like you! He kept peace amongst the gods and humans!"

"SHUT YOUR MOUTH XAVIER! DO YOU THINK I NOT KNOW THAT?! HE WAS MY LOVER, THE PERSON I ONLY PERSON I TRULY LOVE!"

"Zenith...If you don't want to listen, I won't stop you. However, when he grows older, you'll have to tell him the truth about his past."

"I will. Now leave my palace."

"Ari!"

"Ari!"

"Huh"

"Arius is something wrong? You've been like that since we left. Are you sure you're not sick?" Sebastian was worried like his mother ever since the left their house. He was worried that Arius head sick again.

(A/N: I accidentally wrote Damien instead of Sebastian XD)

"I'm fine! Don't worry! Don't we have Louis? We're here to enjoy the festival aren't we?"

"If you say so.."

"Hey now! Stop being so depressed! Look we're here!"

Arius was in awe! As soon as they got off the carriage, he immediately began to drag his siblings and Louis with him. They went to check out the bunch of amazing games and food.

"Young master! Slow down! You might get hurt if you run to fast!"

"It's alright Louis! We're here too, we'll help you ensure Arius is safe."

'I don't need them to worry as Zenith gave me his blessing. But why haven't they notice my ring yet? Did he cast a spell or some sort sorcery on it?'

...

"Hmm?"

"What is it Sebastian?"

"It seems that a problem has occured. Slave owners."

"What?! Those bastards again. Who do they think they are treating living being like that. Right Arius?"

...

"Arius?"

As soon as Lillian started speaking, Arius had already gotten himself involved in the fight.

"What do you think you are doing?"

"Huh? What's a brat like you doing here? Get away kid, it's none of your business."

"I believe it is my business. What you're doing to him is unacceptable. Human beings are not objects nor they are servants."

"Ha! Your just a brat who doesn't know what you're talking about. Now get lost!"

The slave owner pushed aside Arius making him fall on the ground. Louis, Sebastian and Lillian rushed forward to Arius. Louis and Lillian helped Arius up while Sebastian grabbed the slave trader's throat choking him, making him not able to breathe.

"Cough!-...You!-.."

"HOW DARE YOU! Guards! Seize him!"

People immediately rushed up to the slave owner and pointed their swords at him.

'No wonder they were acting suspiciously. Father had  more guards on watch besides Louis just in case an emergency happened. Even more people started gathering around trying their best to get a better understanding at what was happening.

"Guards, calm down."

"Arius!"

"I'm alright, let's deal with him first." Arius glanced at the slave owner then at the little boy kneeling on the ground. He seemed a little older than Arius. He had black hair and red eyes. He looked a little muscular and taller.

"Louis, do you have any healing potions?"

"Ah! Right!"

Louis then took something out of his pocket handing it over to Arius. Arius then gave to the boy and asked him to drink it. However the boy looked hesitant and reluctant.

"It's alright here look."

Noticing that the boy was hesitant, he took a little sip of the potion and gave it back to the boy. Seeing that there was no poison in the potion, the boy drank the potion and his injuries slowly began to heal. After the boy drank the potion. Arius stood up and walked to the man.

"You're a noble right? What position?"

"Viscount.."

"Your not worth the title. You shall be stripped from your title from this point onwards." Sebastian interrupted.

"What?! How?! You are not part of the Royal Family! Unless!"

"That's right. The one you just pushed is Arius Edward Chester. I'm Sebastian Edward Chester and she's Lillian Edward Chester. We have the right to remove your title for justice. I believe that the king has told the kingdom that slave trading is illegal. You shall be in jail for committing a sin."

The slave owner's face became as pale as ghost. Being stripped of your honor and title was the worst thing a noble could ever experience. The slave owner was left trembling on his knees while the Louis,Sebastian, Lillian, Arius and the boy departed for the mansion.

"Hey, what's your name?"

"...I-...I have no name..."

"That bastard didn't even give you a name how cruel. Slave trading should've stopped a long time ago!"Lillian gritted her teeth in anger, angry about how that man acted.

"What about...Aeryn?"

"That sounds like a good name! Aeryn!" Lillian said trying to brighten up the mood.

Tears started to form in Aeryn's eyes.

"Thank you-..."

Aeryn POV:

"You brat! You can't even do a single thing correctly!"

"Ugh!"

'I'll kill you.'

"What do you think you are doing?"

"Huh? What's a brat like you doing here? Get away kid, it's none of your business."

"I believe it is my business. What you're doing to him is unacceptable. Human beings are not objects nor they are servants."

"Ha! Your just a brat who doesn't know what you're talking about. Now get lost!"

'He looks like a white lily flower.'

My rage increased as I saw him being pushed aside onto the ground. I was just about to help him when a tall man rushed towards my owner. Ah, he was finally getting karma. My rage gradually decreased. I looked towards the boy with white hair. It almost looked like silk. He had pale skin and beautiful eyes. He looked at me with a caring expression asking me if I was alright. He asked the man next to him to get some kind of potion. I was hesitant, what if it was poison?

"It's alright here look."

Noticing that I looked hesitant, he took a litte sip of the potion and gave it back to the me . Seeing that there was no poison in the potion, I began drinking the potion and my injuries slowly began to heal. After the I drank the potion. He stood up and walked to the man.

"You're a noble right? What position?"

"Viscount.."

"Your not worth the title. You shall be stripped from your title from this point onwards." The other man interrupted.

"What?! How?! You are not part of the Royal Family! Unless!"

"That's right. The one you just pushed is Arius Edward Chester. I'm Sebastian Edward Chester and she's Lillian Edward Chester. We have the right to remove your title for justice. I believe that the king has told the kingdom that slave trading is illegal. You shall be in jail for committing a sin."

My owner's face became as pale as ghost. Being stripped of your honor and title was the worst thing a noble could ever experience. My owner was left trembling on his knees while the strange people and I departed for the mansion.

"Hey, what's your name?"

"...I-...I have no name..."

"That bastard didn't even give you a name how cruel. Slave trading should've stopped a long time ago!"Lillian gritted her teeth in anger, angry about how that man acted.

"What about...Aeryn?"

"That sounds like a good name!" Lillian said cheerfully trying to brighten up the mood

Tears started to form in my eyes.

"Thank you-..."
