Chapter 68

While creating the barrier against electricity, Kyon decided to find out experimentally how spatial things worked. He took the ring in his hands and infused it with pure energy. An instant later, his mind filled with information about its scope and content. It felt like emptiness. As if you think about an empty bag.

He touched the ring with two fingers and stretched out the black like the darkness of the night film. It resembled a soap bubble. He wrapped the ball of enzymes with the film and detached it from his fingers with a click.

The bubble burst at once, leaving nothing in its place.

Kyon raised his eyebrows and checked the contents of the ring with pure energy. Now, his mind received information about the ball and its location inside the ring.

{Hmm. That’s how it is then…}

Kyon had read in the books that the time inside the ring stood almost still. He effortlessly took the ball out. Anyway, he could use his Tetris skills to handle spatial objects.

{Our spatial pockets absorb a huge amount of energy. Not every millionaire can afford them. It’s so easy in this world… However, it doesn’t come cheap, either. It takes the local magicians-formacists about a week to create them.}

Kyon had read that the formacists applied a special formation to the ring that held a spatial pocket between the spiritual and physical worlds like the kite on a string.

It was seven o’clock in the morning when Kyon exclaimed with joy: «I finally did it!» His voice bubbled with enthusiasm, his eyes sparkled with glee.

He had created the ether technique “protection against electricity” from scratch! Now he could block electric charges and other residual attacks that involved charged particles. His technique had a single drawback: it was incompatible with the ether barrier. Kyon assumed that he had to upgrade his element to an advanced or even higher grade. It would make the barrier stronger.

Kyon had a wild urge to test it immediately on Juno, but his empty stomach had other plans. He had to eat something and drop by the dreamland for a few hours.

…

Yegorka didn’t want to look intrusive in Juno’s eyes, which is why he didn’t visit her more than three times a week. He would never forgive himself if the girl, who was always on his mind, called him clingy.

He madly wanted to be with her as often as possible, listen to her voice, admire her beauty, but he had to restrain himself. Sometimes, Yegorka told her he was busy just to play hard to get. However, Juno never asked him what he was doing. She couldn’t care less. But Yegorka hoped, believed and dreamed that he could become a better man worthy of her love.

The day was shining with new bright colors because a servant brought Yegorka good news literally a few hours ago – Juno wanted to see him. He was approaching the mansion in high spirits when he thought that it was rather unusual of her. Juno had always called him herself. It was for the first time that she had sent a servant to deliver a message.

His family name was enough for the guard to let him in. Anyone from the VIP club could visit the park whenever they wanted to. The elders (of the first rank) were the club members and, with their permission, the others could also enjoy the benefits (starting with the third rank and above.)

Yegorka was anxious. He diligently smoothed his blond hair, gently straightened his jacket. He wanted to shine with confidence around Juno. An elderly uncle, now residing in the imperial capital Dantes, had taught him this wisdom once.

The guard put his wrist to his mouth and informed the lady about the visitor.

Yegorka’s ears caught the sound of her quiet footsteps upstairs. He cleared his throat and swallowed nervously. His voice should sound smooth and pleasant and by no means tremble. A sincere smile lit up his face. Flames were dancing in his eyes.

An adorable, charming angel appeared on the staircase. The gorgeous girl was wearing pearl gray clothes. She fluttered down the stairs like a gracious butterfly. Her curls fell on her back, dancing against her shoulders like a reflection of the setting sun in the smooth surface of the water. Her lovely face… Indeed, the gods went all out on their creation. Only, her eyes were half-closed as if she were in dreamy reverie.

«Hello, Juno! My little angel…» – The moment Yegorka greeted her in happy bliss, Juno threw herself into his arms.

«Ju-Juno…» – His heart missed a beat. She had never hugged him before… Even for his birthday… What was the occasion now? Could it be possible that she had feelings for him?

Yegorka didn’t know the answer, but he wanted to believe it was true… His soul rejoiced! Did she finally see how good-looking he was? He could not believe it was really happening. It all seemed like a dream. His eyes were clouded with tears as Yegorka buried his nose in Juno’s shoulder. It wasn’t a dream, but a sweet reality… What was going on?

It was harder to get rid of Yegorka’s tenacious embrace than Juno had expected. She was looking at him with a calm face, her large eyes pleading as if she wanted to say something.

«What’s the matter? Are you okay?» – He asked, concerned.

Juno wanted to kiss the empathetic moron for being so sensitive. No, she wasn’t okay! She was a slave! And she couldn’t say anything or give him a hint because of the cage of orders! It wasn’t easy for Juno to fall into his arms. She had to pretend he was imaginary.

Juno looked around, frowned her beautiful face and left quietly.

Yegorka was stupefied. He immediately followed her. «Juno, are you alright? Did you miss me? Why are you so quiet?»

«Nice weather today, isn’t it?» – He heard her angelic voice.

«Hmm… Yes, it’s wonderful! Tell me, what happened?» – Yegorka said, wondering what was going on. Was he only imagining things? Something impossible had happened.

Juno opened a door on the ground floor and entered the room. Yegorka followed her.

The door swung open so unexpectedly that Kyon dropped a sausage from his mouth. He frowned at the uninvited guest. «Why didn’t you knock?» – But there was no answer. The cute angel took a running jump straight into his arms and put her thin arms around his neck, embracing him like a vine. She wrapped him with her light floral scent, her eyes closed.

Of course, it was right then that Yegorka should enter the room and see what he could not understand and accept. Juno was hanging around some guy’s neck! Well, if it wasn’t the slave! His black clothes were hard to forget! And his nasty, ugly face… Yegorka’s heart almost stopped beating as he realized what he had seen. «What’s going on here?»

Juno opened her eyes. The cage of orders gave her some leeway when she was around Kyon, but it completely deprived her of freedom when there was someone else. Now that a third party had appeared in the room, she was bound hand and foot.

Juno hurried to leave at once. Yegorka was obliged to kill the slave. That’s what the whole thing was about. He must die… Die, nasty slave, die!

Kyon was shocked to recognize the boy who was his accidental savior twice. Every second counted. He connected Synergy to his mind.

When he realized that Juno had left the room, Kyon ran to the window, broke it and jumped out. He rolled on the ground, disappearing in the bushes. Let’s not forget that the boy who was trying to figure things out was now even more dangerous than Dinah. He had enough power to kill Kyon with a single blow.

A wild roar came from behind as the blond guy with a pale bloodthirsty face jumped out of the window. Instead of asking Juno to shed light on the situation, the distraught macho decided to kill the object of his jealousy. «Wait, you, asshole! I have pressing business with you, and the price is your worthless life!» – However, Yegorka couldn’t see anyone around.

Kyon had reaped the benefits of being the ghost in the mansion. He knew the location of every leaf, web, and blade of grass.

Yegorka snorted. He activated scanning with pure energy, instantly caught the outline in the bushes, and darted toward him lightning fast. «Don’t move, scum!»

Kyon had just taken out the sound transmitter when he heard Yegorka’s roar. He turned pale and rushed forward, calling Juno all the names under the sun.

Kyon hadn’t run too far. Yegorka appeared in front of him with a bloodthirsty expression on his face. His speed was incredible. He could catch up with Kyon in seconds, like a hare chasing a turtle. He grabbed Kyon by the scruff of the neck, lifted him like a fluff, squeezed his hand into a fist and slowly prepared to deliver a fatal blow. His hand radiated a bright orange glow that could quickly turn flesh into a charred piece of meat. «Die.»

Kyon’s journey had only begun. He did not want to finish it like this. An idea flashed through his mind at the speed of light and he cried out:

«Juno loves you!»

The approaching fist froze in the air. The residual heat scorched Kyon’s face with a hot wave. His eyebrows, eyelashes, and part of his hair instantly singed. The skin on his face turned scarlet red. It peeled off, exposing the bloody flesh.

Kyon’s mind was going through excruciating pain that he suppressed with Synergy. He had inhuman endurance. Anyone in his place would have wailed in pain, but he only said:

«The young lady was testing you! She hugged me because she wanted to know your reaction! It was a test of jealousy!» – Kyon said hoarsely but convincingly. It was all or nothing.

Yegorka’s eyes widened. He loosened the grip on the slave’s neck. «Are you serious?! She… Is it true?..»

Kyon coughed and fell to his knees. He picked up the sound transmitter and called Juno’s frequency. She always had the device with her and would definitely answer the call. He had taken every precaution.

While they were waiting for her to answer the call, Kyon said:

«Of course, I am serious! It’s true! I’m calling her right now. Lady Juno will be pleased with your reaction. You have passed the test…» – His voice was heavy with the pain he was feeling despite his attempts to suppress it. Blisters deformed his once handsome face. The devil himself would be horrified to see him.

Yegorka shuddered. He wanted to believe Kyon’s words. Juno’s strange behavior and, even more so, her indifferent face, when she was hugging the slave, had confirmed everything. {It was only a test! Ha! It’s a good thing I didn’t kill him! Or maybe it isn’t… What if she wanted me to…}

Kyon finally got through. «Lady Juno, would you please come to the W-shaped bushes around the corner of the mansion where Yegorka is waiting for you. Your fiancé has passed the test.»

«I will.» – They both could hear her shrill voice.

{Your fiancé? I will?!} – Yegorka was encouraged. All his suspicions had disappeared. The world around him seemed fantastic, unreal again. He pinched himself to make sure he was not sleeping. It was not a dream! Incredible! His amazing, beloved girl was testing him! He had passed her test! A blissful, dreamy smile lit up his face, but… Something was bugging him… It all seemed a bit weird… He had almost destroyed the low-born scum and then this sudden turn of events. He should apologize to the slave for the disfigured appearance, but the humiliation was not part of his plan. Yegorka was more concerned about what Juno would say…

Kyon groaned and fell to one knee. Lovesick, Yegorka was looking around in search of Juno. He couldn’t care less about the boy he had crippled.

Soon, Juno appeared like a beautiful vision, calm and peaceful.

A terror gripped her throat when she saw her master burnt beyond recognition but still alive. He did not die… Dumb, jealous cretin Yegorka did not finish him off! Why? She had hugged the slave, after all!

Her embarrassed blond friend smiled awkwardly. «Juno… Uhm… I’m sorry, I got a little carried away… I have passed the test, haven’t I? He’s alive, you see? How did I do?»

Juno was steaming. She had to hold back the urge to hit the stupid boy on the head. No, you have failed! You should have destroyed the slave! If Yegorka had done everything according to her plan, he would have received a reward. But now, all she wanted was to beat him to death.

Yegorka would never forgive himself if he knew that he had missed a chance to get closer to the object of his adoration.

«My lady, please, take Yegorka to your room. I am sure that he will appreciate the gift you have prepared for him.» – Kyon “ordered” her and bowed slightly.

Juno nodded and led Yegorka to her room in silence. She wanted to cry bitterly, but she had no tears. The cunning slave had somehow outwitted the idiot! Her plan had failed. Well, on the plus side, his face had burned. Let him suffer. He may stay ugly until the end of his pitiful life. However… Her wretched luck was going to get her a fresh set of punches from him… It was so unfair! She didn’t want much, just to kill the parasite. She shouldn’t have counted on the stupid blond boy. He had only complicated her life.

«Juno, my little angel! Tell me what you have for me.» – Yegorka said, anxious to get a pleasant surprise. – «Juno, say something! Talk to me.»

«Nice weather today, isn’t it?» – Juno asked indifferently, leading him to her room.

«Uhm… Yes, it is…»
