Aethernea : Soulbound [Book 1]

Episode 83 - Rhur, Rhur Rroda

Previously:

Elaru picks up Kiel's ring and the two of them go to Black Pearl restaurant where she intends to give him the ring and explain its usage. Unfortunately, as they enter the lobby of the restaurant, they run into Rhur Rroda – Kiel's older brother, and his date.

The first emotion a person would have upon meeting the two Rroda brothers would be surprise. Surprise that the features of the two were so similar that they could easily pass off as twins.

After the initial surprise faded, what would be left in its wake would be fascination. Fascination that two people with such similar features could leave fundamentally different impressions, making it so everyone can tell them apart with ease.

Both of the Rroda brothers wore black and blue clothes. Kiel's were simpler while Rhur had intricate golden embroidery showcasing his status.

Kiel looked charismatic and mysterious, with a trace of unattainable vibe.

Although only a year older than Kiel, Rhur Rroda was several centimeters taller and exuded a stronger air of maturity. His robes were looser, but showed more of his flawless white skin, especially around the neck area, bringing his allure to its fullest. He was stylish, refined and seductive.

While Kiel had an untouchable vibe of virtue, Rhur was exactly the opposite – approachable, enticing, enchanting, as if trying to lure one into sin.

"Fancy meeting you here, older brother." Kiel smiled a bright, heart-stopping smile that instantly lit up the room. Rhur also responded with a smile. However, his was mysterious and seductive. The darkness hidden underneath the smile was as if designed to stir hidden fleshly desires of everyone who saw it.

Although Kiel's smile was as bright as the sun, internally he was incessantly cursing his bad luck. Out of all the times, Rhur could have come here... If either of them had arrived a few minutes later, they wouldn't have crossed paths with each other.

Out of all people he could have run into, Rhur was on the top of his "do not want to meet" list.

Saying that the two brothers didn't get along would be a major understatement. Kiel greatly disliked Rhur's mother, which made him negatively biased towards Rhur even before the two met. However, Rhur's prejudice of Kiel seemed to skip the bounds of prejudice and go straight for pure and simple "loathing".
