BXBX NOVEL Chapter 564 - 13.62
"Who is that lucky boy?! Tell me!"
Matthew stared at the oblivious Jean dead in the eyes, and he opened his mouth, "The one that I\'ve been in love with for a long time is…."
Before Matthew could mention Young Master Jean\'s name, a ball of light suddenly appeared in the middle of the room. It expanded until it was a human\'s size, then Saint Raphael emerged from the light. He stood in front of his Fiancee, Jean.
"Angel!" Jean chirped happily.
He smiled at Jean and caressed his hair, "I see that you\'ve passed the test. I know that you can do it, of course."
"Hehe, of course, I can pass it easily!" Jean said. He enjoyed getting caressed by his fiancee, Saint Raphael.
Meanwhile, Matthew was staring at them silently. He clenched his fist, knowing that his moment had been stolen by someone else, but this one, he couldn\'t do anything. Because Saint Raphael was the official fiancee of Jean, and he was also the Saint.
Matthew held his dark power inside his heart as hard as he could because Saint Raphael would\'ve noticed it if he let his dark energy loose, even just a bit.
"Hmm… are you using my power to pass the test?" Raphael asked. "I got a signal that you\'ve used the golden butterfly. I don\'t mind for you to use it. I was just worried that something happened to you, so I came here."
Jean shook his head, "I didn\'t use your magic to pass the test! But I used it to restore the giant crystal ball. Wolf accidentally destroyed it with his overwhelming strength."
"You\'re restoring the crystal ball? Are you alright then?" Raphael was worried that Jean might\'ve overused the magic. Whenever he used too much magic, his skin would turn ashen, and he would faint. It was the reason why Raphael traveled from such a far distance back to Jean, afraid that something had happened.
"I\'m alright!" Jean said.
"Really?" Raphael was thinking for a moment, "Who did you kiss? Is it Archduke, or did you kiss your knight—"
Jean immediately covered Raphael\'s mouth with his palm. He stared at Raphael anxiously, while the Saint frowned in confusion. Jean signaled Raphael by glancing at the third person in the room, who had been listening to them the whole time.
Raphael finally realized when he followed Jean\'s glance and saw Matthew standing near the wardrobe. He said nothing, but he kept observing the banter between Raphael and Jean.
He smiled thinly when both Jean and Raphael looked at him, "Your Holiness Saint Raphael\'s schedule seems to be vacant enough to visit Young Master Jean."
Saint Raphael\'s smile faltered once he heard this man talking. For some reason, he felt something wasn\'t right with this kid, but when he used his Holy eyes to check whether this guy was a big sinner or not, he couldn\'t find any sin at all, not even one, as if this guy was as pure as Jean.
And it made him suspicious since nobody shouldn\'t be able to have such a pure heart as Jean. Jean was one in a hundred million.
He had seen this kid few times with Jean, and Jean said that he was his friend. Knowing how much of a social butterfly Jean was, he thought he was just one of Jean\'s friends.
Raphael pulled Jean\'s hand out of his mouth, then asked, "And you are?"
"My name is Matthew Moulin, Your Holyness. I\'m Young Master Jean\'s friend," Matthew replied perfunctorily.
"Hmm…" Saint Raphael was observing the kid, and he was a bit unnerved by this kid\'s stare. This guy was handsome, true. But he had something that he hid deep inside, something that might be dangerous for Jean.
Thus, Raphael glanced at Jean and said, "I will talk to the Elder Magus and have you arranged with another student or with your knight instead."
"Eh?!"
"What?!"
Both Jean and Matthew were surprised. Jean was the first to react, "B—But why? I see nothing wrong with Matthew…."
Raphael glanced at Matthew, and he shook his head, "Just trust me, and I will arrange a new roommate for you. Or if you don\'t like it, I can arrange a whole room only for yourself."
Matthew heard this, and his heart was pinched as he felt it was unfair for him. He was so happy that he could finally live with Young Master Jean, and this guy suddenly barged in and wanted to steal his happiness away?
TO HELL WITH THAT!
Matthew hid his hand behind his back and started forming a dagger made out of his dark energy. He did it as stealthy as possible, so the Saint wouldn\'t realize it.
He aimed at the heart of the Saint. He was positive that he could kill this guy in one stab as long as his dark dagger was planted on the Saint\'s heart.
\'Don\'t you want to stay with Jean?\'
\'This is your dream, right? That wretched Saint deliberately took your dream away because he wants Jean all for himself.\'
\'He is your enemy. Kill him!\'
\'What are you waiting for? Throw that dagger. You will kill him with one attack!\'
The dark voices inside Matthew\'s head started messing around with his self-control. He clenched the dark dagger in his hand, waiting for the right time to kill Saint Raphael.
But before he could throw it, Jean suddenly yelled, "NO! I will not move from this room! Matthew is my best friend, and we have been friends for twelve years! I don\'t want to move!"
Jean remembered that living with him was one of Matthew\'s dreams, and he looked delighted with it. So when Saint Raphael wanted to kick Matthew away, he vehemently refused.
Raphael was startled by Jean\'s refusal. This was the first time Jean ever refused his advice, "Jean… listen to me, this is important…."
"No! I refuse to listen!" Jean kept refusing, and then he walked towards Matthew. Jean hugged Matthew\'s arm tightly and challenged his fiancee, "I love Angel, but I also treasure Matthew! He is my best friend!"
