|DISCONTINUED| A Hᴇᴀʀᴛ ᴏғ Gᴏʟᴅ (Hunter × male reader)

Eclipse lake

You wake up at 6:00 am, take a shower, then go on guarding duties. Today isn't that busy of a day, you're simply guarding the castle until your shift is over.
Although the task isn't hard, it's still tiring standing out in the humid air for hours. Not doing anything.

Luckily you rarely get guard duties, but today you're unlucky it appears.

Suddenly- and quite violently- a scout barges through the doors of the castle, it causes you to jump a bit.

The scout turns to you.

"Y/n!"

Wait, that's the golden guard's voice..
Shit, are you in trouble? A bit ago you slacked off and made a small flower chain, did someone see you and rat to out?
Also, that's the second time the green guard has recognized you.
Do you really stand out that much?
Wait- but he's wearing a scout uniform..?

Quickly the boy grabs your wrist and drags you away from your appointed spot.

"Uhm- sir? Where are we going?"

He stays quite and continues to drag you by the wrist, you start to mach his pace more.

Soon you're at a snowy part of the boiling isles, you think this is near eclipse lake? But why would he be taking you to eclipse lake?
You two get to a crowd of other scouts being led by Kikimora. The golden guard signals for you to be quiet and follow him.
You two sneak into the group of scouts without being noticed, the golden guard then breaks away from the group and you follow.

He goes behind a tree.
He sits down and you sit down next to him on your knees.

He unpromtedly [I know that's not a word but it is now] takes off his scout mask to reveal a bit of very light blonde hair as well as his face.
He has bright magenta eyes, (with quite heavy bags under them) thick eyebrows, pale skin, and a hooked nose.
You pictured him as looking much different, maybe a bit more.. polished? Is that the right term?

"Okay so-"

Right as he starts speaking a small cardinal lands on a tree root to his right and chirps something.
Hunter gives the bird a puzzled look

"I don't speak palisman."

Oh, so that's a palisman then, alright.

"Ok, so, here's the plan,"

The golden guard looks at you.

"We slip in with Kikmora's group, get to eclipse lake, and get titan's blood for Belos! Easy!"

You tilt you head slightly, cocking an eyebrow under your mask.

"I don't quite understand, why am I here? And what are you even talking about?"

"Oh, right, didn't really explain that did I-"

Before the golden guard can say another word, the tree your sitting behind gets blasted from an unseen force.

"I just thought I heard an annoying voice."

You recognize the voice as Kikimora's
..she's one to talk about annoying voices.

The golden guard sits back up, looking a bit shocked.
He looks behind him and turns back to you, bent down a bit from his sitting position.

"Okay, as I was saying-"

The bird- or palisman? Is it still considered a bird? Ugh stop asking pointless questions dammit-
Anyway, the palisman tugs on the golden guard's stray piece of hair and pulls him away from the cover of the tree.
You stand up quickly-

"Sir-!"

You begin to jog but are quickly struck down from tripping on a large tree branch, you fall down the slight hill and end up right next to the golden guard.
