The Number One Star in the Interstellar Era [BL]

ASTRID looked at his brother suspiciously. Since Reas returned from his date with Lauren a couple of hours ago, he had been acting weird. For one, the corners of his lips had been up since he came back, and there was even a light bounce in his steps. All of this showed his good mood right now.

He’s not saying that Reas had no right to be in a good mood. It’s just that the whole situation seemed suspicious. Reas was obviously acting this way unconsciously, which made it even more intriguing. Normally, Reas didn’t have much expressions on his face, so seeing him this cheerful and lighthearted was unusual. It made Astrid wonder what had really happened during that date with Lauren.

Because, obviously, his brother’s good mood right now could only be related to Lauren. Especially considering that Reas had just returned from a date with the other.

Ah, the curiosity was truly almost unbearable. But Astrid tried his best to appear like he didn’t notice anything. This situation continued until they finished dinner. Now the both of them were sitting in the living room, waiting for the episode of [The Great War] that would air today.

It was the third to the last episode of the whole series. Not only that, it was also the last episode where Astrid’s character ‘Luan Escanor’ would appear. That’s why he and Reas had decided to watch it together.

If that wasn’t the case, maybe this brother of his would still be with Lauren.

While waiting for the episode to air, Astrid’s curiosity was about to reach its peak. So, finally, he no longer held back and just asked;

“Reas, did something happen between you and Lauren?”

His brother turned to him, obviously not expecting that question. “Why do you ask?”

“Well, in case you haven’t noticed, you’ve been smiling ever since you came back from your date with him,” Astrid started.

Reas was surprised when he heard that. Was he really smiling so much that Astrid suspected that something had happened? Well, how could he stop himself from smiling when he was this happy?

“Anyone who hears you will think I’m some emotionless bastard who didn’t know how to smile,” he only said while shaking his head.

Astrid only raised an eyebrow. “That’s besides the point, right? So, did something happen between the two of you?”

A look of consternation flashed on Reas’ face, as if he was pondering whether to tell him or not. At the end, he could only sigh, looking like he had already made a decision. Experience the best from m|v|l|e|mp|y|r

“Lauren and I… we decided to date.”

Astrid tilted his head. “You mean you decided to go on another date?”

Reas looked at his brother, wondering where the other’s usual perceptiveness had gone? Or was it because it never crossed Astrid’s mind that the reason he was so happy right now was because he and Lauren were now dating? Then, as a good brother, he could only clear his misunderstanding.

“No, I mean, we’re in a relationship now. So, we’re dating.”

It was very satisfactory to see the look of surprise on Astrid’s face. When had there even been a time when he has seen him with such an expression? So he couldn’t resist the urge to take a photo as a commemoration.

“You and Lauren… are dating?” Astrid repeated just to make sure he had heard Reas correctly.

Reas nodded as a confirmation.

Astrid almost stood up from his seat. His little brother was now in a romantic relationship? The shock he felt was so great that his mind went blank for a couple of seconds.

Reas and Lauren… were now together?

He probably had to say that a couple of times in his mind before it finally registered in his brain. He looked at his brother in surprise. He thought, when Reas left today, that he would just spend some quality time with Lauren. Who would have thought he would come back telling him that he and Lauren were now dating?

That possibility certainly didn’t cross his mind.

Many questions swirled in Astrid’s mind. For one, how did it happen? Who confessed to whom first? Was it a spontaneous moment or carefully planned? Things like that.

But before he could ask, the episode of the [The Great War] finally started.

So, Astrid could only say, “We will continue this talk after this episode.”

Looking at his brother’s gaze shining with curiosity, Reas could only show a helpless smile. “Yes, yes, we will.”

The screen faded in from black, revealing a vast battlefield bathed in the dim, early morning light. The air was thick with tension, charged with the anticipation of the impending clash. On one side stood the formidable army of Crevalon, its soldiers clad in gleaming armor bearing the insignia of their newly proclaimed empire.

Banners fluttered in the wind, each emblazoned with the symbol of Emperor Caesar Warwick, a stark reminder of his iron will and unyielding ambition. The soldiers’ faces were set in grim determination, their eyes fixed on the horizon where their enemies awaited.

Opposite them, the holy warriors of Evitria prepared for battle. Their armor, though simpler, carried an aura of sanctity, and their expressions were a mix of resolve and solemn duty. The Pope, Luan Escanor, stood at the forefront, leading his troops with a serene yet unwavering presence.

The sacred spires of Evitria loomed in the background, casting long shadows over the battlefield, symbolizing the spiritual weight of the conflict about to unfold.

As the camera panned across the scene, Caesar himself came into view, a figure of imposing authority, mounted on a warhorse. He and the Pope faced each other from opposite sides of the battlefield. Caesar’s eyes shone with a manic glint, as if completely consumed by his ambition. Across from him, Luan stood with a saintly composure, exuding an aura of righteousness and unwavering faith.

The contrast between them was stark, encapsulating the profound ideological divide that fueled the conflict.

And then Caesar finally raised his sword, its blade catching the first rays of sunlight, signaling the commencement of the attack.
