Chapter Text
Tap tap tap
Rood walks briskly along the corridor. He inwardly panics as he recollects his conversation with Professor Orphell and the other Professors.
This can't be real!
He finally arrives at his destination, his dorm room. Well, used to be dorm room.
This can't be reallllllll
Rood slumps down in dismay. Upon noticing the cleaning lady and the big ass sign put up in front of the door that says, "Mr. Rood Chrishi, your belongings have been moved to room 203."
And that was it. That was literally it. They didn't even bother consulting with Rood first and kicked him out. Now who was going to protect Lidusis? That creepy black thing was still out there!
Rood recollects his conversation that ended just 3 minutes ago.
"Mr. Rood Chrishi," Professor Orphell starts. Professor Orphell seemed to have held his breath while the other Professors standing behind him sighed. As if they were very disappointed or troubled.
Rood who was just sitting down in a velvet colored cushioned chair was confused. Did he do something wrong? Or- Have they finally caught on that he was the Black Magician and that they were disappointed that the famous Black Magician was just a weak looking midget kid?!
Though, what Professor Orphell said was not within what Rood expected.
"You will have to switch rooms."
...
Silence filled the air.
What? What? Did he hear that right? Why so suddenly was what Rood wanted to ask but that was not only question. Why now? When it was clear that Lidusus's life was definitely in danger!
Professor Orphell feigns a cough upon noticing that the blonde Idun was completely lost.
"Your belongings have already been moved-"
"What's the reason?" Rood cuts in. Rood's face was passive but he was furious. He could not accept this.
Rood seemed to be emitting very dark aura and that scared the Professors a little bit. What happened to the weak chronically ill child?
"Your acquainted with Dio Varus if I'm correct?"
Rood nods.
"Mr. Varus's roommate has moved out and because of our goal to help create a bond between the Idun and Hereis, you, who Ajusen Baldwin is most closest to, will be moving in with him in the place of Dio Varus."
With that all Professors thought,
What a cruel fate God has given this poor child.
"Oh and don't worry about Lidusis Dien Artian. Dio Varus will be moving in with him." Professor Orphell says out of the blue.
Way to break the mood
Rood stands up from his seat and immediately heads for the door to leave.
This can't be real!
"Professor Orphell....was this the right thing to do?" A professor asks.. "This child is chronically ill and weak and against Shicmuon is like putting a chihuahua in front of a lion."
"But what can we do?" He replies. "Shicmuon specifically chose Rood Chrishi and denied the other choices that were available. Actually, Rood Chrishi wasn't even on the list."
Professor Orphell picks up a paper that contains information about Dio Varus's former roommate.
Is it just a mere transfer is what I want to know. If Shicmuon is related to the transfer of this student somehow, then Rood Chrishi....who is he? Why is Shicmuon going so far just to be with Rood Chrishi? Almost as if he's.....The Black Magician. Professor Orphell contemplates on that matter.
"Of course not. Shicmuon is probably just going to through puberty." He unconsciously blurts out.
The other Professors look at Professor Orphell in shock.
Excuse me?!
It can't be.....I have to live with that psycho from now on?! And exactly how am I close to Shicmuon?! Why did they even allow him to be involved in the bonding of Hereis and Idun in the first place?!
Rood ruffles his hair in exasperation and decides to get his priorities straight.
So first is Lidusus's protection. The question is whether he can trust Dio with this task.
Second, Master. How would Master react if Rood has somehow managed to get into the same room as Shicmuon. Definitely unexpected and unwanted.
Third, Shicmuon. The devil himself. Even though he's not admitting it his actions are. Shicmuon's unusual attachment to Rood definitely did not fail to be noticed by Professors. Especially Professor Orphell and Rowell. Since the Professors know about Shicmuon's obsession of The Black Magician, and suddenly Shicmuon is obsessing about this charming chronically ill child, they would suspect the latter being The Black Magician but there is a huge difference in term of height.
It's either Rood being The Black Magician or Shicmuon is gay. Of course Shicmuon has his own preferences and Rood and The Black Magician are similar in their ways.
While contemplating, Rood finds his legs carrying him to the room. Room 203.
Idun classes are still going on so Rood won't have to worry about an awkward meeting with Shicmuon.
"Hey I'm Rood Chrishi, your new roommate from now on. Please take care of me." With a bow- As if he was going to do that.
Shicmuon was probably not going to be pleased. He is still a Hereis after all and Hereis were given individual rooms. Now to suddenly get a roommate without getting informed would definitely annoy someone.
Rood doesn't know what to expect as he holds the door knob. He runs away from Shicmuon every single time to avoid an impromptu fight, and never gets the chance to sit down with red head and have tea to get to know him- of course he wasn't going to do something as random as that and Rood's precious tea set might turn to rubble, no it will.
He twists the door knob warily and braces himself for no reason but what greeted him was the sight of Shicmuon. Half naked Shicmuon. Who was wiping his hair with a towel. Hair dripping wet and water trickling down his slender kneck to his chest and lower. Would make sense that he just came out of the bath. He was well proportioned, a body probably guys would die for. Probably not as good as Rood's in Blow form though.
Rood realized that he had never seen Shicmuon half naked before- wait why would he?- until now. Rood looked lower and saw that Shicmuon only had a towel wrapped around his waist- oh god why did he look down- and hoping that Shicmuon hasn't noticed his presence yet, he carefully backs up and carefully closes the dreaded door that led him to a horrendous sight but he suddenly feels himself being pulled back in and pinned to the floor.
"Blondie~" Rood hears Shicmuon say with a sing song voice. Rood assumes that was his Rood's version of the nickname 'Blackie'.
Rood feels something wet dripping onto him but he is too dumbfounded to realize it was obviously water and of the fact that a half naked Shicmuon who only has a towel around his waist is pinning him down by the wrists on the cold hard floor.
"C-Can I help you?" Rood manages to choke out, still recovering from the shock. Shicmuon only smirks at Rood's statement.
Rood swears he can smell the soap from Shicmuon's bear body. Water still dripping down to Rood's face and a drop to Rood's eye causing him to wince. Wanting to rub his eye, but he remembers his arms are bound by the one on top of him.
Shicmuon notices Rood closing his right eye and an idea pops into his head. He leans in closer and starts licking Rood's right eye lid. Right then Rood's mind goes blank.
Shicmuon is licking my right eye lid. Shicmuon is licking my right eye lid. Shicmuon is licking my right eye lid. Shicmuon is-
His train of thoughts are disturbed by the sound of a door opening. Oh no.
It was none other than Professor Orphell. Dear Professor only wanted to clarify a few more things with Rood Chrishi regarding the sudden dorm change but what do you do when you walk in two guys, the person pinning down the other and the one pinning down has only a towel around his waist and dripping. Also that person was the infamous magician, Shicmuon?! And the person being pinned down was the chronically ill Rood Chrishi, who was being harassed by both Shicmuon and Professor Rowell, and who Professor Orphell suspects is The Black Magician.
Without saying another word and leaving the room while mumbling, "Puberty has gone too far..." Professor Orphell leaves the two alone.
If Rood could, he would cover his face in embarrassment. Shicmuon is still licking Rood's eye lid and Rood's starts to get annoyed.
He does one thing what girls would do when they're being pinned down against their will and getting harassed.
Knee 'im in the balls.
Rood's not sure whether there will be a difference in pain if he knees Shicmuon in the balls with or without the towel on. Well, yolo.
Shicmuon groans in pain. Surprisingly, he didn't wail. But he was trembling! Rood was disappointed but focused on getting out of the room. Which he did successfully.
In the corner of his eye, Shicmuon watches Rood leave.
"Damned Blondie."
