Fantasies That Descend on Collapse

Just like 23 years ago, it seems that everything that happened was an unpredictable coincidence...

Then at that next moment, the 'dream' that Siegfried had glimpsed, turned around and left without any hesitation.

There are no souvenirs, as if everything Siegfried saw was like a fleeting moment that he was lucky enough to glimpse every night...

But he understands.

Looking at the opponent who was about to disappear from his field of vision, Siegfried also embarked on the road of chasing the opponent just like before.

At the same time, he also remembered the accidental first meeting between the two a few months ago, why the other party appeared here, and why the end of this trip was deliberately destroyed.

In fact, it's just that he and the other party came here because of the same goal.

He deftly crossed the red light, passed through the slightly crowded crowd amidst the insults of the emergency stop drivers, and finally stopped in front of the alley where the other party entered last.

Then what he saw was that he had used some magical method to reach the other party who had reached the roof of a building about ten stories high.

"...?"

Looking at the back of the other party who had reached the top floor and disappeared from his sight, Siegfried suddenly had the illusion that he was actually dreaming.

------

"Probably, you can't keep up...?"

After looking from top to bottom, this is the alley that only he entered, Luo Chen only heaved a long sigh of relief, and then sat on the ground leaning against the railing on the top floor.

His foot bones, which healed a little with his physique, started to ache again because of the slightly violent escape just now.

At least for now, he is recovering his mobility, so he can only choose to stay here for a while.

"Actually, Cecilia..."

Luo Chen, who was sitting on the roof of the building, just squinted his eyes while looking up at the blue sky, and then spoke suddenly.

"You...don't really want me to meet Siegfried?"

'...'

Judging from Cecilia's previous attitude, according to the current situation, she should very much hope to meet and talk with the other party.

But what's strange is that this time Cecilia didn't choose to let herself get close to Siegfried, but instead signaled herself to reason with Siegfried somewhat abnormally.

Is... is there any other reason?

'I don't think...now is the time to meet Siegfried, neither for you nor for me. '

After a little silence, Cecilia spoke out why she made this choice.

'If we now meet Siegfried, how should we explain our relationship to him? '

'Is heir to power?I admit that Siegfried has a straight mind, but he is not stupid. After all, the successor gets the appearance of the successor. This kind of reason sounds like no one believes. '

'If it is said that I live on you, Siegfried will definitely choose to let you prove this statement. '

'I don't think...you should not choose to use that form, then hug Siegfried, and let him put his ear on your chest...'

"..."

After thinking about the scene Cecilia said for a while, Luo Chen shivered almost uncontrollably.

Indeed, this is the only thing that he can't force himself to do anyway.

'And most importantly...'

Suddenly, Cecilia paused again, but when she spoke again, her tone was inexplicably sad.

'I'm afraid of Siegfried...he will hurt you just like Kiana...'

"..."

Indeed, this is a situation that Luo Chen has not thought about, and it is also a situation that is very likely to have happened.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help stretching out his hand to cover his chest, and in a trance, he seemed to be able to feel the feeling brought by the black abyss piercing through the flesh and blood.

And judging from Siegfried's character, the other party should have inherited his family's impulsive personality well. Perhaps after meeting him, such unnecessary conflicts may indeed arise.

"Indeed... After all the preparations, it's better to choose to meet with the other party..."

After making up his mind, Luo Chen just raised his head again, then narrowed his eyes and stared aimlessly at the sky.

Although I choose not to meet with the other party now, this postponed meeting is undoubtedly something that will happen, and I have to think about how to face this meeting.

If possible, it would be most appropriate for him to bring Kiana, who already knew everything about him, to meet Siegfried together.

But having said that, it seems that the Siegfried I saw before...seemed...didn't lose his right hand...?

"Ha...ha..."

But just when he realized this tiny detail, the sudden panting sound from beside him made him subconsciously turn his head to look.

Then what he saw in his eyes was Siegfried who had already climbed to the top floor and started to struggle over the railing.

Well, he really didn't expect that this meeting, which was bound to happen, would come so suddenly and quickly.

------

It should be said that it was an incomparably bad day.

Looking at Siegfried, who was only a few meters away from him, bent down with his hands supporting his knees and adjusting his breathing, Luo Chen suddenly had an urge to climb over the railing and jump directly from upstairs.

However, the pain in his feet still hasn't subsided, but it tells him that this is not a feasible wish.

If I had known earlier, I would not have chosen to mix gems on impulse.

He thought so, and then pulled up the hood of his coat again, then turned his head away, and at the same time blocked his ears with his fingers.

Although it was really impolite to do so, he had already made up his mind to use this self-destructive way to evade all the conversations proposed by the other party.

"***"

With the eyes closed, the darkness that was seen was empty, and the ears that were fingered could only slightly hear the words that were already vague.

However, just when he felt that doing so would allow him to escape the meeting that had already begun, he who closed his eyes and could only see the darkness suddenly felt...

It was a... totally unexpected hug, with a hint of tobacco and exhaustion in it.

And the opponent's right arm that is too hard, even if it only depends on the touch, you can know its true identity...

This is from the other party, too sudden, too direct, and also too pure contact, and mixed with feelings that cannot be described with suitable words.

Now, faced with such a situation, what should I do...

Whether to stop the other party with a serious loud voice, or to push the other party away bluntly, or...use other methods to end what the other party is seeing at this moment, which is the most beautiful dream for the other party.

Luo Chen, who was being hugged, could clearly see the expression on Siegfried's face at this moment in this posture, but the other's arms that had begun to tremble a little, made him understand Siegfried's emotions at this time.

Although the emotions between people should not be understood, but at this time he was inexplicably able to understand each other.

The emotions mixed in this hug are surprise, joy, and sadness at the same time.

His sense of Siegfried can't be said to be extremely poor, but it can't be described well. Perhaps strictly speaking, it can only be described as a passerby who knows a little bit.

This stranger who is not very familiar with the road is embracing what he thinks is a warm dream, but he who is regarded as a dream by the other party has a different kind of right.

Exactly...how to choose is the best...

"Ugh..."

He who has the power, sighed and acquiesced in the close contact of the other party, but he has not crossed the bottom line.

It is cruel to tear apart other people's dreams at will; but it is also cruel to let the other party sink into a false dream... and the behavior I am doing at this moment may...

It's just because of my sympathy, I don't want to do such a cruel behavior to the other party...

Or in some sense, the sympathy between boys and boys...?

"sorry..."

That was an apology mixed with too complicated emotions, and Siegfried who said so just still embraced his dream without any intention of letting go.

"I...I don't know what to say..."

"I never seem to fulfill the promises I've made..."

"I lost you for the world, our child for another child..."

"Our child... is only nine years old... Obviously, she should be able to have a better life...""

He seemed to be crying. This man, who had never shed tears even after his right arm was burned by the sky fire, mixed his tears into his words, and poured out his sadness to the world in a different way.

"kiana...has passed away...when she was nine years old...?"

"...sorry...."

There was no silence, no justification, and the father named Siegfried just apologized with sadness and remorse to bear the mistakes he made.

One of his two daughters is irretrievable, and the only one left is the daughter who was endowed by him as 'Qiana Kaslana', and is another kind of blood relationship.

As a father, Siegfried wanted to protect everything greedily, but in the end he paid an irreparable price because of this greed.

He is dereliction of duty, neither to his father, nor to his husband, nor to members of the Kaslana family.

"..."

It seemed that there was no longer any doubt about everything, it was just a foolish father who simply felt that his daughter had passed away made a thoughtless decision.

It was a little unexpected, and it seemed a little natural... It's just that it was a matter of course, but it made the two father and daughter feel extremely sad.

"Mr. Siegfried, I think... you should let go..."

Looking at Siegfried who knew he was still hugging him tightly, Luo Chen just sighed, and then motioned for him to let go quickly.

In any case, this unilateral hug from one person's will lasted too long.

It's just that this request, for Siegfried in his current state, seems to be just a wish...

"Actually, I know everything..."

"I've already made up my mind, even if you have become like this (the Herrscher), I will go on with you without hesitation..."

"No matter in the end, what will our result be..."

Facing Luo Chen's request, Siegfried just expressed his own opinion, and at the same time increased the strength of his embrace.

"..."

Feeling the opponent's gradually increasing strength, Luo Chen, who could calmly face the opponent and embrace him without warning, was already a little angry.
