"Nonsense, Lord Jasper is a Magic Lord, it'll not be so easy to steal away a weapon from his arsenal" Adrian sulked at the thought of how layered the enchantments on the weapon would be.
It really was a pain to have such pitifully little magical prowess, else he could snatch away a few items as payback for emotional damage.
A couple of hours later, Adrian had finished up his chores. In Jasper's castle, the environment was always bright even at night.
Adrian used his perception to predict the time and he could tell that twilight was coming soon.
Feeling bored and lonely in the castle, Adrian could already see himself turning insane after a few days.
Sadly, he couldn't even speak about it, the pervert Magic Lord had made a killing by muting him.
While he was loitering in the castle's grounds, Adrian came across a mysterious pond. However , the pond had the size and depth of water that was more than qualified to be termed as a lake.
The water of the pond looked a little golden but it was very clear, one could even see ripples emanating within from time to time.
As he was already stressed and also had a good reason to hone his curiosity, he took off every clothing on him till there were only undergarments left on his body.
Without giving a second thought, he dived head first into the mysterious pond.
A cool and crazy feeling washed over him as the pool's water refreshed him. The tingling feeling reached every part of him even till the depth of his soul making him lightheaded. He temporarily forget a lot of things including the woes of the last few days.
Moments later, he swam to the surface to catch a breath of air. He was rash to have just jumped in now and even though he was feeling so refreshed in it, it didn't change the fact that the water itself was too mysterious.
If Jasper were to walk in now, Adrian could foresee that he will be enraged by seeing him in the mysterious pond.
However, before he decided to leave the underwater space, his eyes caught sight of a neon stone that was casually blown over by a ripple. Out of curiosity and his innate lust for shiny objects, Adrian grabbed it away before swimming out of the pond.
Adrian looked at the neon stone in his grasp with all smiles. A few seconds later, he then looked ahead as he sensed human presence.
"Huh"
A soundless gasp escaped Adrian who staggered immediately. He nearly fell back into the pond again because he saw Jasper's back view right in front of him.
Adrian had a moment of awkward panic as he fumbled around reaching for his clothes.
"What a mess" Adrian roared inwardly.
He felt the most embarrassed he had ever been since birth. Right now, he was only in his undergarments, he stepped out of water all soaked up and that involved his underwears.
Adrian could sense Jasper's back 'eyes' giving an intense gaze at his little teenage bulge which he had yet to cover.
"Mmmm!!"
Adrian tried to tell Jasper to be a gentleman and excuse him to get dressed. He did so out of instinct forgetting that he was under a muting spell.
So his noise brought a reaction but this reaction was the one he was trying to avoid in the first place.
Jasper who was in his own world heard the noise. He didn't quite understand what the noise was about and wanted to address the cause.
"Hey little warlock, what's all the..." Jasper's words came to an abrupt halt as he beheld Adrian in his crudely worn dress.
His facial expression alternated between broadly spread lips that depicted shock to a smirk capable of creeping Adrian.
Adrian already pictured that Jasper would instinctively turn back to address him after he made the silly sounds.
Luckily for him, he discovered his clothes and roughly came up with an unusual cover garment to hide his bulge.
However, his teeny abs were still a sight to savour in the eyes of Jasper, the pervert Magic Lord.
Taking in the gaze of Jasper while barely dressed made Adrian panic really badly. He had already stared once into the mesmerising eyes of Jasper and he nearly lost himself in the process.
Jasper was too handsome in such a way that Adrian tagged him to be criminally handsome. This meant that Jasper was too handsome to the point that his looks were lethal.
Adrian's mind was far stronger than any other teen in the world outside Jasper's castle. But in this castle, he always seemed too vulnerable to Jasper's ordinary gestures.
Jasper beheld the shy Adrian who he had subconsciously intimidated with his godlike handsomeness. A smile plastered itself on his lips as he walked slowly and calmly to Adrian.
He never for once stopped smiling and Adrian could sense it making him feel some sense of fright.
He bit his tongue many times to try and revive his body system but it was all to no avail, all the functions ceased to operate. He could only stand there and remain transfixed as Jasper approached him.
This was passive charm at work and Adrian could only blame his weak magical prowess else he could have just protected his mind with some spells and save himself the embarrassing session with Jasper.
After a while, Jasper finally arrived at Adrian's side. Inwardly, Adrian sighed in relief but his heartbeat had yet to ease as he unwillingly anticipated Jasper's next line of action.
"Is... Is he trying to kiss me?" Adrian's heart pumped restlessly as Jasper leaned slightly to the side of his face.
Adrian's skin grew goosebumps as Jasper's hot nasal air blew against his neck and he lower side of his face.
"Little Warlock, any other day you approach this Crystal River of Tears by yourself again, consider yourself DEAD" Jasper whispered softly into Adrian's ears but his words chilled the heart of Adrian.
Adrian's rapidly beating heart skipped a beat. He literally couldn't believe his ears and by the time he realised things, Jasper had evaporated into thin air.
He just stood in place, unwilling to accept this turn of events that took him by surprise.
