There's No Love In the Deathzone (BL) novel Chapter 698

Chapter 698: Side Story 3. Stellar Blossom - 33

It was so hard for his mind to wrap around the fact that his baby brother was already a father, but above all that...the name. It couldn’t be a coincidence, so...

"You knew?" Han Joon widened his eyes.

He knew he wasn’t allowed to talk about his sister. His father had already warned him to never mention her, that there was never a daughter inside that house. So there was no way he would tell Shin about it.

"Of course," Shin nodded while taking a seat beside him. "You told me after that man died."

That man...oh, he meant their father. Han Joon was yet to get used to the hateful tone that Shin used to address their father. Joon himself had no thought aside from fear in regard to his father. Perhaps...longing, if he was allowed such silliness.

But then again, he knew there was nothing nice about his father either, so he understood the contempt in Shin’s tone.

Anyway, there was no chance for him to think abiut his deceased father when the snow fairy demanded his attention. "Chuun, agg!"

The small baby hands smacked his cheek again, although it felt more like a tap, barely tickling. The snow fairy climbed and stood on Joon’s thighs, stretching up her arms to barely circle Joon’s neck and threw herself at her uncle.

Blinking, Joon held the baby in reflex, circling the small figure. "Oh, you want me to hug you?"

"Agg! Chuun!" Nari giggled and laid her head on Joon’s shoulder, standing on her toes.

It took Joon two seconds of being stunned, before he laughed and hugged the little snow fairy back, careful to not damage the artificial wings attached to her back. The bouncy black curl tickled his cheek the way his sister’s hair would when she hugged him in the past.

Just for the duration of the hug, Han Joon allowed himself to think that his sister was actually reincarnated as this adorable snow fairy.

But that wasn’t the end of the surprise, because a pair of handsome little snow elves appeared not long after.

"Nayi!" a little boy whose hair looked as of it was made out of snow ran inside with full force, and pulled a swift break at the sight of Joon. The amber eyes widened and the little boy shrieked joyfully. "Uncle Jun!"

Once again, Joon could only blink in surprise as the handsome little boy ran in his direction. Nari the snow fairy turned her head and shrieked in response, filling the room with high-pitch sounds.

"Oh, the twins are here!" Han Shin clapped his hands before raising them for the younger twin to high-five. "You’ve grown so big!"

"Aca tall?"

"Yes, very tall!"

Shin raised his thumbs and stretched out the snow elf’s arms, saying it would make him taller. Han Joon wondered if it was true. The little boy seemed to be about three or four--maybe three, although he did look tall. But he wasn’t alone. Another handsome snow elf with the same face but black hair and different-colored eyes entered calmly, and, upon seeing Joon, immediately walked faster.

"Uncle Jun..."

Different from the first one, this handsome little boy was calm and quiet, even calling him in a gentle tone. The different colored eyes observed Joon’s clueless face keenly, and suddenly nodded.

Yes, it was just as Dada said. Uncle Joon was sick and could not remember anything, including them or Dada or even Baba. Dada said he should introduce himself to Uncle Joon once they met again, so the older twin did just that.

"Uncle, this is Kal," the older twin tapped his chest. Seeing that, the younger one immediately followed suit by raising his arm high.

"This is Aca!"

Han Shin laughed and patted the twins’ shoulders. "Kar and Asa," he told Joon.

Asa cheekily added with hands on his waist. "We plotec Nayi and Uncle!"

"Ung."

Han Joon was shocked enough that his baby brother had a baby, but...there were another two? Also, his flabbergasted mind belatedly digested the fact that he was...

"Uncle..." the black eyes blinked repeatedly. "I’m an Uncle?"

"Hehe..." Han Shin giggled, and Han Joon narrowed his eyes.

"These two are not--"

"No, no--of course not!" Han Shin and Reina laughed at Joon’s neverending shocked expression. They thoroughly enjoyed seeing this face, which they had never seen before. "They are Nari’s playmate brothers. Look--that very pretty man and the scary one beside him are their parents."

Han Joon followed his brother’s finger, which was directed to the sitting area arranged on the other side of the room, separated from this play zone with a glass screen. He could see Laurel and Ludya, as well as Dee, and two people he didn’t know--although he did remember seeing them at the hospital.

"Oh," Han Joon nodded. A pair of very handsome people, no wonder their children looked like pretty elves in a fairy tale.

The black-haired elf tugged on Joon’s sweater after the introduction was done. "Kal want play with Uncle Jun."

"Oh, oh--Aca too!"

"Chuun! Aay!"

The snow fairy princess also gave her agreement while patting Joon’s cheek. Being surrounded by these babies, he suddenly realized that he wouldn’t be able to know how Shin grew up since that baby brother had already become an adult--and a father. Oh, how disappointing, but...
