In another universe

3.

As Aguero was teleported to some place all he saw was many colours, before the last figure closed his eyes making him fall asleep. He could still remember the comfortable presence from the lady, but as for right now all he can feel is the hard ground and his silky coat that was preventing from laying on the uncomfortable ground.

Aguero awakens from his sudden slumber and sees brownish-yellow grass, well it doesn't seem like grass depending on the colour and how tall it was, he thought it was wheat so he plucked some of it and ate it. He chewed on it before spitting it out, well, now he knows that he ate grass mistaking it for wheat.

"Great job Aguero, great job." He mumbled to himself before looking around for the black merch; luckily it was still with him after he teleported. He picked it up and held it tightly, well he was hugging the sword. He needs to give it back to the princess either way. Aguero sighed and walked through tall grass.

He did hear the announcement for the test but as for right now, he didn't encounter any enemy that was lucky of him, he didn't feel like fighting anyone. A rustling sound was heard from the tall grass and it shocked Aguero so he went into his battle position, a couple of sweat fell off his cheeks as he looked around for enemies. Aguero looked around and saw no one and sighed, "I was too alarmed.." he thought as he hugged the black merch, before walking into the tall grass once again.

If only the bluenette knew where the rustling came from. A brunette was hiding in the tall grass secretly following him. That was where the sound from earlier came from.

The bluenette kept on walking through the never ending tall grass before he heard someone's footsteps getting closer and closer and— Aguero blocked the attack from the mysterious person who attacked him. He was worried of course, he had some experience of fighting but only with a spear, well he did give up on it because he couldn't defeat his father. The bluenette started to worry and just stood there, frozen before he could attack. He saw a shadow figure defeating the person before standing in front of him.

A tall brunette with fluffy brown chocolate hair, orange-golden eyes matched with round brown pupils, a black collared shirt with the first and second buttons unbuttoned, giving a view of his collar bone that made Aguero blush slightly. After examining the person's appearance he looked back up to the person's face,
The way the brunette looked at him made the bluenette into a blushing mess, in other words, he found the brunette in front of him hot.

"Hey? Hello? Earth to...Uh, what's your name?" Aguero snapped out of his thoughts of the brunette, he refused to look at the person in front of him and kept his head down to prevent him from seeing his red face. "I-I'm..Uhm, Khun Aguero Agnis." The bluenette spoke softly as he tried to back away from the brunette, "Oh? A Member from the Ten Great Families, I see...Well I'm The 25th Bam, but you can call me bam." A hand reached out in front of him, Aguero lifted his head up and shaked his hand.

———

Aguero didn't know what happened. First he met bam and now he was following the brunette, well, he was carried by him fighting enemies. Apparently when he asked Bam to put him down the brunette refused because he didn't want a single scratch on Aguero. Right now, Bam is treating him like he was some goddess of beauty as if he was carried around by his guardian preventing any harm happening to him or the brunette might just explode and kill any person that harms him.

"Bam please I can protect myself! I have a sword for a reason and I know how to use it" Aguero exclaimed as he tried to escape from the brunette's grip. Unfortunately for him he was weaker than Bam, no matter how hard he tried he couldn't escape from him.

"Hey, may I borrow the sword for a moment?" Without even answering the sword was taken from him and now Bam had it, " Hey! Give it back!" Aguero tried snatching the sword back but the brunette just carried him in another way. Originally he was carried on Bam's left hand; now he was carried like a sack over Bam's shoulders with the brunette's arm on his waist. Aguero didn't like the position he was in so he started squirming in Bam's arm.

" let me go! This is seriously kidnapping! I don't mind being teammates with you but it seems like you're kidnapping me instead!" He heard a chuckle from Bam and he pulled the brunette's back hair in anger.

" Ow, Ow, Princess don't need to be feisty. Look I'm only helping you to pass this test, we're teammates alright but I can't let a princess get hurt can I now?" 

Aguero blinked in confusion, " Princess?" The brunette blinked and was also confused, " you're not a zahard princess?" The bluenette giggled. " I'm not even a girl to begin with, I can't be a zahard princess."

Bam started to turn red and let him down and made Aguero face him, "YOU'RE NOT A GIRL? WHY DO YOU HAVE SUCH A BEAUTIFUL APPEARANCE THOUGH?!" The bluenette blushed at the remark, his pale cheeks turning pink, he looked away from him, " I don't have a feminine nor beautiful appearance..."
The brunette held onto his shoulders, forcing him to only look at his direction. " You seriously have the appearance of a girl, you have long blue eyelashes, long blue hair, milky skin tone and a slim yet feminine body. You don't call that a feminine appearance?"
Aguero just covered his own face as bam just stated how much he looked like a girl, "Please shut up...I don't think my appearance is that feminine..."
The brunette rolled his eyes, " Your outfit is showing your hips, you don't call that feminine?"
Aguero blushed and he tried to cover his body with his blue coat. "It was the only clothes that Maria gave me before she left!"

"Who's Maria?" The brunette asked, Aguero realised what he said and although he didn't want to explain to this complete stranger he just met who kidnapped him, or just did. "Well, Maria is my sister, another sibling in the khun family. I am an exiled member of the khun family because I was failing school. Leading me getting expelled, of course my parents heard about it and well i got kicked out of the castle. Maria was the only person who actually stayed by my side the whole time, we stayed in a cave for shelter and ever since then we've done everything together until she climbed the tower... so I decided to follow her as well."
Aguero explained looking a little uncomfortable by telling the story.

"Did you open the gates to the tower as well?"
The bluenette's eyes widened and turned to him, " what?"

" did you open the gates to the tower as well?"

The brunette looked serious and aguero sighed, " yeah...I'm an irregular, wait did you said as well?"
Bam nodded and a smile formed on his face, "You're an irregular as well?! That's so cool! I didn't know there was another irregular! I thought I was the only one but turns out you're one as well! I bet we're going to be a overpowered team together!"

"You're an irregular as well?...that was a surprise..." aguero snatched the black merch back, " well yeah, you didn't seem like an irregular..well I don't know how an irregular should look like so, I can't really say,"

The brunette looked at him and smirked, "Well princess, let's go defeat other contestants."
Before Aguero could even speak he was lifted off the ground by bam once again.

" I can walk. I'm not a child you know?" Irritated, he rolled his eyes.

"I know, but you're a person from the ten great families and you're an irregular! So, I will protect you! Preventing you from harm and I won't let anyone lay a finger or a scratch on you, I'm very powerful you know."

" yeah, yeah."

With that Aguero started his journey with another irregular, he really enjoyed Bam's company and now they're off fighting others, well just bam but he enjoyed it nonetheless.
