Gate Guardian - Tale of the Blazing Heart

Phase 32: Who is Void Wolf?

Phase 32: Who is Void Wolf?

[Romanov Residence – Mirose Grande City]

[10:21 PM]

I stood up in surprise. Erylle was surprised also, but with my sudden movement.

"My father knew!? Does that mean that he's a Guardian too?"

"I don't know, but most probably, he was. He won't tell me because its classified information...And I don't want to use my ability on your parents."

"Leave that to me." I lay back on the mat silently.

The ball of light disappeared after a few minutes. It was complete darkness. I can no longer hear Erylle talking. Maybe she's asleep now. Yeah. I'm sure of it.

It's good that there is another thing I should worry about. It's my father. He knew about the Gates, and more probably he knows what the hell we are fighting right now. He's just pretending that he doesn't know.

I stretched my arms sidewards and made a long yawn. Leave the worries. I should talk to him tomorrow.

Three o'clock in the morning when I heard something in the complete darkness.

"Must...go...to...the...toilet..."

I didn't open my eyes; it would be useless since there is just darkness to be seen at this hour. But then I felt something touching my treasure between my legs. Two milliseconds later, it became a heavy stomp.

"O-OUCH!!!"

"Wo-uah!"

I immediately rolled in panic then someone fell unto my body, but something hard hit my head. I don't know what that is, I'm more concerned of my Johnson being crunched. Damn, I can't see anything!

"A-Aw!" It was Erylle's voice.

"W-What's the matter?!"

"I-I'm sorry!...I'm just...I'm just walking half asleep, that's all..."

That's not an excuse for stepping on my nuts!

Then I felt that she was trying to stand up. So I tried to raise my head but then she suddenly slipped and something heavy fell on my stomach. I cried in pain for a second, but then there's worse...Is my shirt wet? It's somewhat warm, but then I recognized the putrid smell.

"W-What the hell did you do to me!!!" I cried out loud.

"A-Ah!..."

Then the door opened and the lights turned on. Erylle's voluptuous figure emerged on her saggy white shirt and striped panty. It was my father who turned on the lights and opened the door, staring suspiciously at us with his half-awake eyes. We disturbed his sleep, it's pretty obvious.

It's good that Erylle made it in time to stand away from me; it will be bad if my parents get the wrong idea.

"What's the matter?" Father said.

"I-It was your son, Mr. Romanov!" Erylle cried and pointed at me. "He wet his pants while sleeping!!!"

"Hey, it's not mine! It's yours!" I cried back.

Then Erylle made a solid punch to my left cheek made me fall onto my wet mat again. Erylle smiled obliviously to my father like nothing happened. But my father was not amazed. Of course. My father spoke with an aggressive tone.

"You're already seventeen, Yohan. You should buy diapers next time."

What the hell!!!

A few hours later...

It was already seven in the morning, and I don't feel like standing up. I'm wide awake, but there's a reason why my body refused to get up. The reason? It was Erylle's long hair, hanging in the edge of the bed that it's even reaching to the ground. I tried touching her silky smooth hair and got the hang of it. Now, I'm playing with her hair for more than ten minutes.

After that ambiguous event that happened earlier, Erylle helped me change my wet clothes and wet sheets. She also changed her wet underwear in the bathroom. Then we both went to sleep again after we finished. She bowed and apologized at me many times, and of course I forgave her. Besides I don't really recall what happened because my memory's a bit woozy that I even thought of it as a dream, but there are evidences that it wasn't. I still smell like pee.

Erylle is even drooling on her sleep. It's my first time seeing her in such pose. She looks like a cat when asleep. But she's a sylph when she's awake. She's somewhat gross and yucky sometimes (Just like what happened on my bed sheet, and her drooling on the pillows.) but I still like her.

"Yohan, get up already!" My father yelled from outside the house.

I stood up and went into our living room. There's my father, sitting on the couch, holding a green book. At first, I thought it was a bible but it wasn't. He reached it out to give me which I immediately accepted.

"Open that later. You have a job to do."

Oh, right. I'm going to help my father and other helpers to construct our ruined second floor. If it wasn't for the hurricane, it wouldn't be this harsh vacation.

I went to my room again to change my clothes. There, Erylle was already awake. She's daydreaming, sitting on my bed, like a dog statue. I never greeted her. It's awkward, okay? When I finished changing, I noticed that Erylle is watching me with a smile. In return, I just scrunched my face and went out of the room.

When I was already helping my father carry some fallen wood and concrete debris, my father started the conversation.

"I heard that you two are looking for something here in Mirose Grande."

"Uh-Ummm..." I nodded. "Did you know Void Wolf?"

"The answer is always beside you. You have to open your eyes."

"I'm not a philosopher." I groaned. "Are you ...Void Wolf?"
