The Protection of Aquarius

Your companions seem to be doing well. The poisons are already removed from their body, and now they can rest until they have fully recovered. healers are good and experienced here in our Desi. We are prepared for any attack that will happen; that is why there is always a Velum in charge of using his Zodiac ability to always watch from the tower inside our border.

and all Velum have their work assigned to each of them.

Because of this, we are able to keep people's lives safe and happy inside Velos Desi.

Could you come inside on Linhardt? Juno said while combing her long silver hair and looking in the mirror that was shining with gold. Her back was exposed to Linhardt, and He could see her beautiful white skin and the perfect curve on her body, especially her mark on the back of a Zodiac.

Linhardt couldn't stop smiling and stammered his speech. He just slowly bowed down to show respect to Juno and sat on the chair.

Juno turned to him and spoke. what happened earlier outside our border where I saw it all and still can't believe how you did that.

Can you explain the complete details to me now that no one else is listening?

You killed those assassins without even doing anything to them, and after I assigned one of the Velum to scout the area, the bodies of the assassin who had died had been dissolved. the only remaining was their dress and some part of their bones.

trust me, Linhardt. I will keep you safe and your companions if you let me know everything.

because Linhardt feels that Juno can be trusted, he tells her all the events based on his memories.

he said they came from the Land of VEA, and there were many unexpected events, including being attacked by a Ziukai and a Zodiac Taurus general. The first encounter with these weird abilities he had was the time that he made the Taurus general kneel in front of him.

Juno was very surprised because apart from being attacked by a scary Ziukai, they were also attacked by a Zodiac Taurus, which is one of the strongest of all Zodiacs and he humiliate that Taurus in front of a lot of people on the land of VEA

Linhardt also mentioned that they were able to escape from Taurus, and Lucius was saved because of the arrival of Lord Sirius. one of the Royalties. he also couldn't explain how a Royalty was able to defeat a Zodiac. Still, he was also very grateful to Lord Sirius for helping his father. which is currently still resting in the castle.

He also wanted to know why Lucius wanted to take him to Chyros Desi. because he also couldn't explain why his personality suddenly changed every time he was about to do something weird, and he was able to do things he didn't think he could do when he was blacking out or being totally confused by any danger that came to them.

Juno approached where Linhardt was sitting and held her hands. Even though Juno was an archer, her hands were too soft and smooth.

Linhardt suddenly blushed again because he saw Juno's beautiful face up very close to him.

As Juno held her hand, she pressed hard on the tattoo where the mark of an Aquarius was located, to check if there would be a reaction. Usually, if an opposite Zodiac pressed on the mark of the other Zodiac, there would be some reaction that would occur, but nothing happened when she did that on Linhardt.

Could you let me know why you did that? said, Linhardt.

and Juno released his hands at the same time.

she took a tie from his cabinet and tied her hair while saying, that's a fake mark. you are not a true Aquarius Zodiac. all this time, people around you have lied to you. you are not an Aquarius; even if I don't look at your mark, I will know right away that you are unique. Your eyes are the color of the sun, and your hair is pure black. I've never seen any Zodiac with that color combination. We usually had the same color of hair and eyes. but you, you are too different from us. what are you?

I hear a lot of people saying in every area of ​​the Houses that people who have eyes with the color of the sun are none other than Leos.

but the Leos have lost their power because the stars and the moon have punished their Desi. Could you tell me, Linhardt, are you a Leo?

While Linhardt and Juno were deep in conversation, suddenly, someone shouted outside their room.

One of his companions, Chief Juno, is already awake. said one of the Velum.

Juno wanted to ask more questions, but she could see in Linhardt's face that he also had no knowledge of the events and that he also just now found out that he was not a true Aquarius.

Juno told her to visit her companions first and let them continue their conversation later. so that his companions with join them and answer her questions that he could not answer. before Linhardt

left, he had some words for Juno.

Thank you, Thank you, Finally, there was someone who did not hesitate to tell me the truth.

even I know that I am not a true Aquarius Zodiac. I don't even have the ability that they can do in our place in Nero Desi. they can control water with their ability while I'm just watching them having fun, and even though I practiced a lot, I still cannot do anything.

but no matter what happened or even if I asked anyone, not a single Nerium had the courage to tell me the truth.

they all want me to believe that I belong to them even though it's not true. It hurts me as a human, as a people of the Kingdom of Zo-An that even I didn't know where do I really belong. Thank you for telling me the truth.

Linhardt has been hiding his feelings for a long time. even though his father nurtures him, protects him, and takes care of him completely, it seems that there is something missing in his personality. He has been waiting for a long time for his father to tell him the truth and for it to come directly from him, but until the end, he does not tell him the truth.

As he sadly walked to left the room, he was surprised when Juno suddenly hugged him from that back that stopped him from walking away.

Juno's tears fell slightly because of what she heard from Linhardt. she was drawn to words because of her soft heart and felt all the emotions that she had heard.

She tells Linhardt that no matter what happens, his father definitely only wants to protect him, so he hasn't told him the truth yet.

Our fathers have no wish but to keep our condition safe at all times.

so let's not hate or hold grudges against our fathers.

because in the end, even if everyone becomes our enemy, they alone will remain our loyal allies against everything.
