The Demon’s Angelic Love - Chapter 139
He could only blink his emerald eyes after hearing Michy’s question. The idol was frowning at him, and it seemed his words earlier offended the idol.
However, he didn’t know why Michy suddenly looked so angry at him now.
“Are you angry with me because I opened your old wounds with my question earlier?” The blonde demon asked another question carefully.
Michy looked angry, so he shouldn’t offend the idol even more. No one could guess what kind of consequence he got from the idol if the idol continued to be angry with him.
On the other hand, Michy stared at the taller man in disbelief. “I indeed have old wounds because of that man, but I think you misunderstood our relationship, Azren.”
Again, Azren blinked in confusion upon hearing the idol’s statement. Even if Michy was offended by his words earlier, Azren thought that the Michy in front of him right now was the normal Michy.
Michy was upset, but he didn’t snap at him like the evil Michy normally did. The split personality of the idol made him feel dizzy, but Azren saw the boy’s statement as an opportunity.
“Maybe I indeed misunderstood your relationship with him, so can you please give me some enlightenment? What’s your relationship with him, and why do you look like you hate him so much?” Azren couldn’t hold back his curiosity anymore and immediately bombarded Michy with his questions.
Michy looked tired even if he only heard the question. “It’s a long story,” he replied. “But you have to know that I didn’t have any romantic relationship with Elias in the past.”
Now, Azren’s mouth hung open after hearing the idol’s confession.
Ever since he heard Michy mention Elias’ name in his sleep, he had suspected the relationship between the two men was special, more than just friends.
And when he finally got a chance to meet Elias and witness how he interact with Michy, he felt more sure that their relationship In the past was the romantic one.
Now he was astounded when he heard Michy say that he didn’t have any romantic relationship with Elias.
“You… You didn’t have any romantic relationship with Elias? But I thought you two had something special in the past,” Azren finally regained his composure as he voiced his opinion.
“I did have a special relationship with him, but the thing that was special didn’t have to be romantic, right?”
“…” Azren couldn’t reply because what Michy said indeed made sense.
“And I think you have known that Elias left me right years ago. I was only ten back then, so do you think I would have a boyfriend when I was just a clueless kid?”
“…” Again, Azren couldn’t reply.
He was a demon, and there was no term ‘kid’ in the demon world. Even if the demon was just born, they would immediately become an adult demons who could even have sex right away.
And even if his human brain had helped him to calculate Michy’s age back then, he still saw the possibility of Michy having a boyfriend at that age because kids these days could develop their minds and hearts faster.
Those kids could even say that they were in love when they were only seven or eight. That was ridiculous, but that did happen.
That was why Azren misunderstood the relationship between Elias and Michy in the past.
“Maybe you indeed didn’t have any romantic relationship with Elias in the past, but maybe you had a crush on him? That’s normal for a kid to have a crush, right?”
“A crush?” Michy sneered at the taller man. “I don’t have that kind of feeling for him. He’s only… a big brother for me.”
[Michy was such an unlucky boy. When he was still so little, his parents died in a car accident. He was also with his parents when the accident happened, but miraculously, he could escape from the grim reaper’s grasp.
He was still alive, but his life became harder afterward. He was still so little, and his parents’ relatives didn’t want to take care of him after his parents died.
In the end, he had to start living in an orphanage when he was still a baby.
He grew up in the orphanage as a cute boy, and his body was smaller than kids his age. The situation gave him another difficulty when other kids in the orphanage started bullying him because of his small frame.
“Michy looks like a girl, and even his name sounds like a girl! He’s disgusting!”
“He’s so small! Probably because God hated him and didn’t want to give him the height!”
He could hear insults like that until he was 8-year-old. When he was 8-year-old, no kids dared to insult him anymore because he had an angel by his side.
It was not really an angel, but it was a human who cared about him a lot.
He was the new caretaker who just started working in the orphanage back then. He was a man in his 20s, having beautiful blonde hair, and his smile was also beautiful. And the most important thing was that the angelic man always protected Michy from the other kids’ insults in the past.
That man was so tender to Michy, but he was quite stern when it came to the naughty kids in the orphanage. He would punish those kids if they dared to bully Michy, and in the end, those kids didn’t dare to bully the poor boy anymore.
Michy got an angel by his side, and his gloomy life became brighter day by day. That man always stayed by his side and accompanied him in the orphanage, and Michy was so happy to have that man by his side.
That man even promised him that he would always stay by his side forever, and Michy was beyond happy when he heard the promise.
“So, you won’t ever leave me, right, Elias? Even after I grow up, you will always stay by my side, right?”
The 8-year-old Michy was too innocent, and he was so pure without knowing any sin in the world.
The blonde man smiled at the boy before lifting his hand to ruffle the silver locks. “I promise you that I won’t leave you, Michy.”]
“But the promise only stayed for two years before he left me alone once again,” Michy ended the story without looking at the taller man next to him.
Azren couldn’t even say anything because he didn’t expect such a story would come out of Michy’s life.
Elias’ appearance was too sudden, and he thought the man had a relationship with the male idol. However, he didn’t think that the relationship was merely about an orphan and the caretaker in the orphanage.
“Fortunately, just a week after Elias left me, I was adopted by my adoptive parents. If I had no one back then, I wouldn’t know what I should do in this world,” Michy spoke gloomily when Azren didn’t give him a response.
“Don’t say something like that, Michy,” Azren finally responded. “You’re living a good life now, and you have passed the difficult time because you’re a very strong boy. I’m so proud of you.”
Azren could only support Michy when the idol had reached a better position in his life, and he slightly regretted it because he couldn’t be with the boy when the boy was facing difficulty.
‘But I’m just a demon. What can I do for Michy when I can’t even help myself?’ He lamented as he realized that his life as a demon was also in danger now.
Both of them didn’t say anything afterward, but not long after, Azren broke the silence once again, “So, you didn’t date Elias eight years ago?”
Michy finally turned to the man and gazed at the man with his lazy gaze. “I still need to repeat myself? Do you think I will date someone much older than me at such a young age? I’m not that kind of person, you know?”
Azren didn’t know why, but he heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing Michy’s clarification. Michy was not dating Elias, and it seemed the idol didn’t like a man who was much older than him.
But wait. Azren was also much older than Michy, right? He was 200 years old when Michy would only turn 18 next month. Pouting in disappointment, Azren squinted his eyes at the young idol.
“So, you don’t like someone older than you, Michy? You won’t date someone if they are older than you?” The demon questioned the idol again.
Michy frowned upon hearing the blonde’s question. “Why did you ask me that question? Do you want me to date someone older?”
Azren blinked innocently upon hearing the idol’s question. ‘Right, why did I ask that question to Michy?”
Getting no response from the taller man, Michy squinted his blue eyes at the emerald ones.. “Don’t say that you want me to date you, Azren. You are older than me, aren’t you?”
