There's Something Wrong With You, My Lord!
Chapter 125: Jealous (1)

Chapter 125: Jealous (1)

After a long day of hard work, all clansmen who were involved in construction threaded the path where the "open-roofed canteen" was located.

This new "hot" place is where they can enjoy delicious food made by the moon elf lord’s favorite cook. A certain bearer named Ira.

People tend to bond best when there is good food.

Luis made this place as bait for those moon elves who spent their lives interacting with just their clansmen.

This is a place meant to encourage mingling between individuals from different clans.

"Hurry up! It’s a huge crowd again today! We need to secure a table first or we will end up eating standing just like yesterday!" A petite yet energetic bearer loudly said.

He was dragging another friend from the same clan as they were moving hurriedly like a hare inside the crowd.

"Here we are, you go and reserve a table for us and I will move ahead and order the usual, Taurin steak and spicy mushroom soup." He said in great haste.

Thanks to his small frame, he can nimbly move around. "What’s the matter? As if everyone is here in the canteen? Did the great cook add a special dish to the menu?"

The bearer didn’t particularly ask anyone but someone heard his question and answered.

"The moon elf lord is having his dinner here with the members of the Tribunal and the Iron Clan. That’s why."

"The moon elf lord?!" The bearer’s eyes brimmed with excitement. He adored their beautiful yet powerful lord. "Where is he?"

"He is sitting on the reserved banquet table."

The bearer excitedly stretched his neck like a giraffe, trying to get a glimpse of his idol.

However, if his small body let him move through crowded places with ease, his height restricts him from seeing anything higher than 5 feet and 6 inches.

"Ahhh! A little higher!" He grunted when his jump was too short to see anything.

He jumped one more time despite there being a lot of people around him. His wanting to see the moon elf lord made him forget that he was in a congested place with a lot of people walking to and fro.

"Ahhh!" he screamed in surprise when he suddenly felt his back hit someone’s chest.

"Oh my, I’m so sorry," he said, panicking.

The bearer faced that someone and he was awestruck when he saw who it was.

"So handsome..." he stupidly uttered. The bearer gawked at the tan-skinned male with a shiny silver crown on his head.

The man has a high and masculine nose that casts a shadow on one side of his face, giving that enigmatic attractiveness. But this didn’t darken the bright purple eyes of the man, instead, the darkness made it stand out more like a pair of stars in a dark sky.

His pink lips may be small and unsmiling but in just one look and anyone would know that it would be soft and luscious.

But what greatly attracted the bearer was this male’s body. It was bulkier and manlier than most male moon elves. The shirt that the male wears reveals the attractive bumps and bulges on his upper torso.

Since he was holding one trayful of food with his one hand, the angry arm muscles of the male are in full show.

’How would it feel if I were to touch that,’ the bearer gulped a mouthful of saliva.

Budump. The bearer’s heart raced as he faced this stranger. ’I think I finally found one.’

"Uhmm.." he tried to speak with the man, but before he could even utter a single proper word the man just walked past him.

"Wait!" The lovestruck bearer cried in through the crowd. He tried to catch up to the handsome man with great difficulty and desperately grabbed the man’s arm.

"Excuse me!"

"Do I know you?" The man asked almost instantly when he turned to him, his brows furrowed.

The bearer was so infatuated and he was looking through rose-colored glass that he failed to notice the slight irritation of the man.

"I bumped into you just a while ago." The bearer was blushing so hard as he explained, "We might not know each other personally now but do you want to know each other better..." the bearer clenched his trembling fist. "To be mates in the future?"

In a loud and boisterous place, this abrupt confession happened. Anyone who heard it stopped in their tracks as if someone hit the pause button. They all look at the situation with great interest.

The unmated bearers look at the male with unadulterated admiration and calculation.

If this doesn’t go well, maybe they can try their luck. They already received the moon goddess’ blessing and someone from a different clan confirmed that they are pregnant with a child.

They want to get this strong and attractive male to father their child. Who knows, maybe they will sire a strong offspring and get recognized by the moon elf lord?

Their great lord expressed his support for pregnant bearers and extended material support from him.

The distant singing of bugs and animals is heard.

Everyone was expecting a heart-pounding action to happen between the two characters but to their dismay, the cold evening wind blew away their hopes.

"No, I don’t like you and I already have someone."

Just that statement and the man left with his food. Like nothing happened.

"What the...’’ the bearer could only utter, his fantasy halted without coming to fruition.

"Xagrien, who was that?" Ilian asked once his friend reached their table.

It was made of wood and quite spacious and it fit five diners on both sides. Their table was occupied.

Xagrien sat on the long wooden bench that had no backrest, facing the direction where the banquet table was. Manulus, Kalux, Cain and Ilian sat on this side.

While Gab, Hares and Sylis were sitting on the opposite side.

"Just a nobody."

Ilian blinked his eyes. "Oh, alright," he acquiesced.

He cannot believe the changes that this friend of his showed one day after it came back from the moon elf lord.

’It’s already a given that Xagrien was handsome but there is something in his air that hints that he is still a boy... but that was before,’ Ilian said to himself.

He couldn’t stop to scrutinize the bigger and more mature figure of his friend and as if he was spellbound, he unknowingly reached his hand out to cup one side of Xagrien’s chest.

So big and manly...

"Ehhekk!" Gab choked on his meat when he saw this.

"What are you doing?" Xagrien asked with a dead expression on his face.

Ilian snapped out of his trance.

"Nothing," he retracted his hands guiltily. This hand of his has its mind!

Ilian spewed bullshit to mask the guilt and shame he was feeling for what he did.

"I was just thinking if you could breathe in that fitted shirt? I know you like wearing the clothes that were prepared for you by the moon elf lord," he whispered the last four words. "But if you are having trouble moving around, then maybe he will understand if you didn’t wear it."

"You don’t have to worry about that. I’m fine with these."

Xagrien tried his best to hide the smirk blooming on his face. Actually, Luis asked him to stop wearing it since according to him, it was too eye-catching.

He was ready to comply only if it weren’t his bearer gawking at him.

Xagrien is a jealous lover, he admits that.

That is why he loves the fact that he was Luis’ distraction as it gives him the assurance that he wanted. And he will do anything to remain that way.

"D-don’t move too much, Xagrien! You are a hellish test for my l-limits!" Xagrien remembered that Luis was trembling when he was helping him with the skin that he shed after their heated session. He was a bit groggy that time but he could faintly see the desire burning in Luis’ eyes that time.

And he loved it. Too bad he was too weak since most of his energy was spent during that weird phenomenon or else he will willingly give what his bearer wanted.

"There’s something changed in your aura, Xagrien," Gab said while chewing a mouthful of food.

"It seems like your skin was glowing due to mana. Is Nero’s training that effective for you? Why doesn’t it do anything to me?" The orc absentmindedly touched his face with his oily hand.

"Now your face is instantly glowing. Good job," Hares sarcastically chided. He grabbed a cloth towel and wiped it off like a stressed-out parent to his toddler.

Xagrien purple eyes glowed with determination. He isn’t sure what changes happened to his elemental power after the incident happened yesterday. All he knows is that his physique has improved and he could feel the mana in the air better now. He was getting stronger and that is what he needed most right now. "Yes, probably."

"How envious," Gab pouted and said, "I know we told you that you need to look the best to get and keep our lord’s heart and you are doing really well. He will never look at any male at this rate!"

Xagrien beamed. This is what he wanted to hear right now and he is really satisfied.

"Ehekk!" This time, multiple individuals sharing at their table choked on their food.

’Is the world about to end?’ It’s been so long since they saw Xagrien smile like a normal being.

"Well, I have a bearer who could charm anyone. I need to pull something up to make him want me, right?" He said and looked in Luis’ direction.

Coincidentally, the moon elf lord, who was busy with his meeting slash dinner, looked in his direction and rolled his eyes at him. With a little blush on his face.

’How adorable, my lord.’ thought the male who knew nothing of the jealousy that his bearer was feeling.
