Chapter 173：Enclave - Razorland Series

Osborne sent Joshua back to school that night and sponsored him a box of 100% purity inhibitors as a gesture of friendship, he stayed at home to be interrogated by Old Matthew. It seemed that his strength had increased from being stimulated by the pheromone, when Old Matthew saw him kick out the high-pressure bearing door, he'd felt both pride and helplessness.

Such a good Alpha, unique in the galaxy, why do you have to choose the infertile Cecil? Earlier I engaged you to Cecil, you refused, but after the other man castrated himself from grief and indignation, you want him back, aren't these actions too tyrannical?!

Old Mathew tried his best to persuade his grandson with no results, he had no choice but to let him go back.

Cecil's relationship with Kyle seemed to grow more intimate by the day, if Osborne hadn't developed a very rigorous training program that took up all of Cecil's private time, the two would've probably reached the point of romantic intimacy.

In order to resolve the hidden dangers as soon as possible, Osborne launched the field survival training program after the physical evaluations, he picked a remote minor planet as the training ground and personally led the students.

Zhou Yun Sheng knew that Joshua would go into estrus in six months, so he had been planning to persuade Osborne to cancel his military mission in six months, the sudden field training caught him off guard. When Osborne arranged Joshua and Kyle in a team, he walked over and urged Kyle to pay attention to safety.

Joshua stood not far away, staring at him with gloomy eyes, then his line of sight shifted to Kyle's gorgeous face and he suddenly smiled. In fact, strictly speaking, Kyle's condition was not inferior to Osborne. He was a prince, and although the royal family were basically figureheads, they still held a little bit of real power, which would very helpful for his future plans. And Kyle's personality was much more gentle and considerate, an easier target [object / partner / boyfriend / girlfriend. I chose target out of all those meanings cause Joshua is a leech] to hold on to.

In contrast, Osborne could even resist pheromones, anyone could see how determined his spirit was. With Kyle you might be able to establish an equal partnership, with Osborne you could only become his vassal, unless he loved you wholeheartedly.

Yes, Osborne's heart was hard, but once it opened up for someone, it was incredibly soft inside. Wasn't that what he constantly does for Cecil? Bringing him back and forth from school every day, spending all his free time with him, personally cooking for him, even picking the most beautiful rose for him.

Joshua had known Osborne for half a year and never knew that he could cook, and he also didn't know that he allowed others to pick the flowers in his garden. He remembered the one time he'd wanted to pick a half-blooming white rose, Osborne had harshly shouted at him to stop.

In the interstellar era, most of the primitive plants were extinct, the rose was indeed a very precious species that came from the planet of human origin billions of years ago, Earth. At that time, Joshua didn't think much of it, he just thought that the man cherished the flowers he'd carefully cultivated, but now he knew that that wasn't the case, it's just that the person who picked it was not the person he'd wanted.

No matter what Cecil wanted, he would give it him, no matter how absurd Cecil's demands, he would agree. When Osborne truly fell in love with someone, that person would become the object of interstellar jealousy.

With this idea, he stepped forward, bid Cecil farewell and grabbed Kyle, then meaningfully said, "I wish you a pleasant journey."

Osborne glanced at him with cold eyes, then he led Cecil into the depths of the jungle. They only had the simplest weapons and equipment, but they had to survive on the minor planet for two months, taking responsibility for their own life and death. Once they entered the second grade, Chelman handed the students over to the military, they were already real soldiers, and soldiers dying on the battlefield was a very natural thing.

"Why am I teamed up with you again?" Zhou Yun Sheng swung an energy sword to cut his way through vines while slowly opening, "Training with you I can understand, that will give me a challenge, but surviving in the field with you, isn't that obviously cheating? You should partner me with the weakest."

"No, you're wrong, we're not a team. To be exact, I'm just following you to see how you survive. Even if you meet a fatal danger, I won't intervene. I'll take your body back and bury you with martyr status." Osborne expressionlessly said.

In fact, when he'd said the last sentence, his heart had tremored in intense pain. How could he ever impassively watch Cecil die? He would bury the entire planet and himself as his funerary objects.

Zhou Yun Sheng glanced at him and sneered, "Are you mocking me? If a person with 3S level spiritual and physical power dies during field training, they would certainly become the biggest interstellar laughing stock, although I already have that title."

"No you don't, I do. They all curse me for having no eyes." Osborne deadpanned.

"Well, do you think their curses are correct?" Zhou Yun Sheng poked the man's hard pecs with the hilt of his energy sword.

Osborne almost groaned, he couldn't stand Cecil's touch, even indirectly. His chest muscles couldn't help but tremble, and the movement was particularly noticeable through the tailor fitted training clothes.

Zhou Yun Sheng was most envious of muscular men like this, the way they flexed their muscles was too sexy. In particular, Osborne's body proportions were perfect, wide shoulders and narrow waist, plus long legs, which looked very explosive. He couldn't help but poke again, he found the reaction very interesting, then cheerfully laugh.

Osborne really wanted to pin him against the tree trunk and ruthlessly take him from behind. He was too naughty, he needed to spend a lot of time to discipline him.

"I think they're right, I really do have no eyes." Osborne grabbed the hilt and frankly said.

"Humph! It's good you finally recognize your mistakes. Giving up Cecil was your greatest loss." He really had loved you, he'd loved you so much, and not for the sake of the Matthew family's power, like the outside world had gossiped. But Zhou Yun Sheng would never tell Osborne these words, since the opportunity was already missed, there was no need to mention it.

So, can I salvage those losses? Osborne almost said this sentence. He opened his mouth, but finally said nothing, now was not the time.

He deliberately led Cecil aimlessly through the jungle, admiring his combat skills as he took down the Zerg they came across. When Cecil ended the fight and walked back to him covered in sweat, he felt so desperate to hold him, his every cell longed for him until it was painful. He tortured himself in this way for three days, then he began leading Cecil toward Joshua and Kyle's location.

"There's an Omega in estrus!" He suddenly showed a 'shocked' expression and asked, "This minor planet is uninhabited, how can an Omega appear here?"

Zhou Yun Sheng immediately thought of Joshua, then thought of his only possible partner, Kyle. He searched around with a gloomy face and found a cave that was closed off by a stone. He was about to kick the stone away when Osborne stopped him.

"What are you doing? If you disturb an Omega during mating, they'll die."

"Can't you smell it? The Alpha inside is Kyle!" Zhou Yun Sheng's expression turned ferocious, but even in his rage, he didn't expose Joshua's identity. No one had ever smelled Joshua's pheromone, he hid it very well, so reasonably, he shouldn't be able to recognize that it's Joshua in there.

But why did his estrus come six months early? Was this just the inescapable nature of fate?

"Even if you go in now, it's too late, they've already bonded." Osborne cruelly said.

Alpha could read the pheromone trail to determine whether an Omega was already bonded, if they were, they could restore a bit of reason and force themselves to leave, if they weren't, they would fight for the right to mate.

Pheromone lured Alpha into becoming a pack of wild beasts.

Zhou Yun Sheng's eyes exploded with strong killing intent. His lover was bonded to someone else? Fuck that!

He took out his energy sword and aimed a kick at the huge rock, but the instant he raised his foot, Osborne pulled him into his arms and persuaded him in a low voice, "Who do you want to kill? Killing a mating Omega is punishable by death! Is your life worth an Alpha that can't even control his own lust? If Kyle truly loved you, he would never be tempted by pheromone, think about it Cecil, realize it, he doesn't truly love you."

The words Osborne said were somewhat dishonest. In fact, except for himself, there were probably no other Alpha that could resist pheromone seduction, unless they were sexually dysfunctional.

But he'd managed to appease the boy's rage, he stood still and mused for a while, then nodded, "Yes, you're right. If he really loved me, he would be able to resist his instincts." His lover was the most unique existence in the world, he was strong, resolute, loyal, and gentle, although he had some unspeakable small hobbies, he wasn't someone that couldn't control his own desires.

He was so convinced that he starting seriously thinking over his decision again, maybe he'd found the wrong person and Kyle wasn't Adounis. Joshua also looked exactly like his previous incarnation, but his soul was completely different, so this situation could have happened to Kyle too. At this thought, he quickly calmed down, and his thoughts became clearer.

If he'd killed Kyle and Joshua in his rage, that certainly would've been a 'fun' time. As an outsider who'd killed the fate of the world's sons, the world's consciousness would've used a powerful force to attack him, tearing his soul apart. Don't underestimate the energy of an A-Class world, if it was furious, it would be strong enough to devour his soul.

And as he moved on, the worlds' levels became higher, if he entered an S-Class world with a badly traumatized soul, the outcome waiting for him was complete obliteration.

At this moment, he finally discovered the sinister hidden intentions of the world's consciousness. Perhaps Joshua and Kyle's appearances weren't so coincidental. Perhaps the Lord God had found his trail and had begun its retaliation. But these means were too mild, they were more like a temptation than a strangulation.

Perhaps the Lord God was afraid of something? Zhou Yun Sheng couldn't help but think of his lover, more curious about his origins. He lingered in front of the cave for a while, then waved, "There's still a few days of estrus left, we'll come back when they're finished."

"Have you calmed down? If not, I can spar with you." Osborne earnestly proposed. His favorite activity was sparring with Cecil, because he could unscrupulously touch him during the fights.

"We'll spar after we get back, I still have a task to finish." Zhou Yun Sheng glanced at his personal terminal, in these two months, they wanted him to kill at least six thousand Zerg, this time was not like in the entrance examination, they wouldn't convert the high level Zerg into one hundred or two hundred low level Zerg, no matter the level, one kill counted as one, there was no room to take advantage.

Osborne saw him able to separate his work from his privacy, and his tense lips couldn't help but curve. "Then let's go."

They quickly disappeared into the jungle, dropped by the cave three days later, found that the pheromone scent was still rich, and left. They dropped by each day, totaling seven full days.

Only the most pure blooded Omega could continue in estrus for so long, and their ability to tempt Alpha was even greater. This was the golden finger the world's consciousness had gifted to the fate of the world's son, he would be able to give birth to an excellent heir. Zhou Yun Sheng was already completely calm, he kept guard in front of the cave, lost in his thoughts.
