【Moon】Three Years Courage

"Princess, I'm sorry." Yulanas left the thing he was clutching tightly on the table in the princess' bedroom—it was a heart-shaped spar necklace, crystal blue all over, emitting a faint cold light.

The spar of Uranus evolved into today's crystal after years of changes, biting cold, and hot burning.Just like himself, he has gone through so many experiences before he is as cold as he is today.

He will never be able to have the blazing heat of the prince of the earth, who belongs to the cold and dark, and will never be able to stay in the holy and beautiful world of the princess.

With bitter sourness in his heart, Yulanas no longer missed it, tightened his coat, turned and left.

"Princess Serenity and Prince Endymio are really a good match!"

"Although there are gods' rules, I still really hope that they can be together."

"It's so romantic to break all curses with a predestined love~"

Walking on the secluded path, I could still hear the cheering crowd. Yulanas felt his heart was enveloped by something, as if it was about to suffocate him. He desperately needed to escape. place, but saw an elegant girl with curly hair.

"Yulanas, did you escape like this?"

"What else can I do if I don't escape? This place doesn't belong to me."

"No, the princess has feelings for you, you can't escape like this." Neptune anxiously stopped him who was about to escape.

"Nepton, we are all soldiers with important missions, don't you think it's too extravagant to talk about feelings?" He said sarcastically.

"But the relationship is between two people, Yulanas, you are unfair to the princess. If you let the princess be with someone you don't love, even if he is the Prince Charming in everyone's heart, the princess will not be happy."

"No, the princess is very happy." - I saw it with my own eyes.

Yulanas didn't want to say any more, maybe he also had a faint expectation in his heart, hoping that Neptune could persuade himself to stay, it took so much talking... But he couldn't deceive himself again after all, this was the only reason he had left , before the end of this banquet, he must leave.

"Yulanas! Ulanas!" A girl's anxious voice came from behind. Yulanas froze and wanted to escape subconsciously, but was strangled by his wrist.

"Ulanas, give the princess a chance."

Yulanas was just stunned for a moment, the girl's voice had come behind him, and when he turned his head, he saw her standing in front of him panting.Neptune had disappeared, leaving the two of them behind.

Serenity's gorgeous dress was slightly messy, her hair was floating, her little face was covered with sweat, and she was a little embarrassed, but she was the purest of everything, with no fragrance and beauty.

Yulanas had to admit that once she came into his sight, he couldn't leave her at all, and even locked his heart firmly.

"Ulanas, don't go." Serenity took a breath and said with difficulty.

"Princess, it's time for me to go back to the border... Please take care." She wanted to pretend to be magnanimous, saying that she would come back when she got engaged to Andymio, but she couldn't say anything.

"Don't go." Serenity became nervous, and took a step forward to grab Yulanas' wrist.

"Princess, you are pure, kind, and approachable. But I am your soldier after all, so I lose my dignity." Ulanas lowered his head, pulled her hand away with the other hand, and took a step back.

"What do you mean?" Serenity was stabbed by his cold attitude, a little annoyed, and raised her volume.

"Princess, your status is noble..." He was interrupted by a sharp voice, and his body trembled.

"Do you think I am so attentive to everyone? Yulanas, that's because you are very important to me!"

"Princess..." Yulanas was frightened by her hoarseness. In his impression, she was always lively and lovely, gentle and considerate, and she would never be so angry.

"You are very important to me, really important." Serenity articulated the words clearly, and said this sentence, like a huge boulder of ten thousand tons fell on the heart of Yulanus, setting off a huge wave.

"I have no way to treat you badly." Serenity felt a little helpless, "Because just thinking about your lonely and sad figure makes my heart hurt."

"Princess, I..." Yulanas trembled again, not knowing how to struggle, so he could only lower his head like a child who admitted his mistake, "I... really should go. There are still princes waiting at the banquet For you, today is your birthday, don't because of me..."

"What if my birthday wish is for you to accompany me? I don't care about other princes, what I want is your company." Serenity felt that she was really crazy, and put down the entire banquet, all the guests in the galaxy, There is also a gentle prince waiting for a response to his proposal, but he must be found.

"Princess, princess..." Yulanas was at a loss and almost bit his tongue, which reminded Serenity of her own appearance just now. Who would have thought that she would have changed people just now during her torment.

"Princess." He naturally saw Serenity's loss, and stepped forward to hug her in a moment of impatience, "Don't do this, I actually..."

Who said Ulanas was calm and cruel, he actually despised Serenity's sadness and fragility the most.The princess in his heart is destined to be sacred and inviolable, pure and perfect, proud and confident.

Serenity didn't seem to have expected him to be so close suddenly, and felt elated and a little sour for a moment—after knowing that he cared about her but still said he wanted to leave.

Reaching out to hug him, Serenity felt extremely at ease.

"Yulanas."—Crazy this time, let's keep this person who is very important to her, this person who was the first person to think of when she was proposed.

"Andymio just knelt down to propose to me, but I remembered the scene when I first saw you, when you knelt in front of me and kissed the back of my hand. The way you looked at me was full of loneliness. Cold, and looking so lonely, I never forgot."

Ulanas let go of his embrace and looked at Serenity's beautiful eyes, as if everything hidden in his heart had been seen through in an instant, as if she was feeling his pain personally, and there were mixed feelings in her heart for a while.

"From that day on, whenever I see your lonely back, I can't help but want to catch up with you and stand by your side. Seeing the sadness and strength in your eyes, I want to share your pain Suffering, I want to protect the softness of your heart...Ulanas, I hope you can smile happily and gain happiness."

"Princess, I..." Yulanas had no idea that Serenity had always wanted to protect him, and even paid so much for it. Those who seemed to be kind and amiable to everyone were only interested in one person. Before Yulanas could suppress the mental activity, his heart was already filled with ecstasy and emotion.

"When my mother asked me to find a prince I liked, I kept thinking about what it means to like. Is it like a fairy tale that the prince and princess are destined to fall in love at first sight? If so, I think I like Andymio very much, but I can't control I can't help but think of you guarding me, lonely but strong."

"I thought of you being seriously injured, but you still used your thin body to stand in front of me, comforting me softly. I thought of you always showing a faint smile when you were resting in the back garden, but every time you resolutely left the mother country. It's been three years since I left. Thinking of how cold Miranda is, you still have to practice your sword day after day, just to be able to protect me."

With tears in her eyes, Qiannidi looked at Yulanas full of distress, "As long as I think of this, my heart hurts, and I have no way to treat you badly."

"Why would I be willing to use everything to treat you well and make you happy?" She was a little aggrieved at the end, looked up at Uranus, realized a reason that could explain all this, and asked softly, "You Lanas, have I... fallen in love with you?"

"Princess?!" The usually indifferent soldier opened his eyes wide, at a loss as to how to answer.

Who hasn't imagined that the person who deeply loves silently and secretly loves himself? ——However, when these two words were uttered by her, Yulanas felt kindly, the deafening heartbeat, pounding, like the shock of beating his own soul, far less than his own Fantasy blushing heartbeat.

It turned out that she could make him lose all his persistence and reason with just these two words.

Serenity was also deeply troubled, looking at Ulanas and not giving herself any answer, she even hesitated and bit her lip.

"I think...there is only one way for me to confirm my mind."

Yulanas froze for a moment, but saw her step forward slowly, gently took his hand with both hands, and held him tightly.

It was a completely different feeling from Antimio, the prince's hand who always impressed her with warmth.

Yulanas's hand was itchy to hold, it was thinner and thinner, and it was always wounded.Gently rubbing the red marks with her fingers, Serenity could even clearly tell how he was injured.Either it was a blister from long-term sword practice, or it was scratched by the sharp sword energy, or it was a bruise caused by the reaction force.

She once held Antimio's strong and masculine hand, and she felt an endless stream of power pouring into her body, as if she was about to be melted.But Yulanas's hand was always cold, as if lifeless, which made Serenity's hand cool down quickly at this time, but she persistently chose to hold it tighter.

It made her feel at ease.

She is willing to give Uranus absolute trust. When she holds his hand, she has the courage to face any difficulties and fears.

Even if the whole world is in darkness, as long as she holds Yulanas's hand, she still feels a warm wind wrapping her, which is the light that Yulanas gave up everything to protect her.

This light made Serenity lustful for her. At this moment, she had infinite power in her heart.She has such loyal warriors who will always, always stand behind her so that she is not alone.

This realization filled her with hope and courage.

"Uranus." Serenity pulled his hand closer to her, "...I like you."

What she said was an affirmative sentence, and Yulanas unconsciously wanted to hold her little hand back, but he trembled and let go hastily.She let go of her hand and took a step back.

"Princess, please take this sentence back. I am your warrior." Yulanas was a little flustered, afraid that the feelings he had been suppressing towards her would pour out in an instant.

"I don't care." Serenity shook her head, "Let's be together, Yulanas."

"No." Ulanas denied fiercely, his eyes gradually filled with sadness that terrified Serenity, "Princess, warriors cannot have feelings."

"Why?" Serenity asked back, "Soldiers are human too, why can't they have emotions and desires?"

"Because emotion will influence the reason of a soldier, I must keep calm at all times in order to protect you."

"Then you don't have feelings for me?" Serenity looked at him and asked softly.

"I..." Yulanas wanted to deny it, but when he looked into her clear eyes, he couldn't tell a lie.

——He has already made a mistake, and he has feelings for the most wrong person, will he make more mistakes?

"Ulanas, I believe in you." Serenity smiled happily when he heard that he did not deny it, "You are my strongest and most reliable fighter, I believe in you, even if we are together, you still will not forget your mission."

"Princess, don't do this." Serenity held her hand again, but he didn't have the courage to push her hand away. He was about to fall into her tenderness.

"Yulanas, can you trust me too? Let's protect the motherland together. I want to hold your hand. No matter what difficulties there will be in the future, we will face them together, okay?"

Feeling the strength in his hands gradually increasing, Serenity stared at his deep eyes, clearly reading desire and struggle from them.

Ulanas held Serenity's hand tightly, he wanted to pull her into his arms, hug her and never let go.But his identity will never be able to match her brilliance, how can he say a good word?

— Uranus.

——You, Princess Serenity, are destined to be just a relationship between a princess and a warrior.Your Passover is not made up for by your own sacrifice.The one who will pay will be the princess.

——Today, the one being punished is not you, but her.From now on, no matter what mistakes you make, she is the one who will bear the consequences.Because she is the princess representing the highest status in this country, the responsibility she has to bear is the entire country, even the entire galaxy, and the entire universe.You are just one of the countless people she has to bear, she cares about and is willing to sacrifice.

"I'm sorry, princess." Those words were still vivid in his memory, Yulanas trembled, and when he came back to his senses, he wanted to break away from her hand, but was held tightly by the other party.

"You can't like me, and you can't be with me. You are the princess of the silver millennium, who is going to marry a noble prince, inherit the throne, and guard the entire galaxy. I'm just your guardian warrior, really can't , princess, let go, please."

There was a hint of pleading in his tone, and the powerlessness of not daring to fight against fate made Serenity's heart twitch.

"Ulanas..." Serenity lowered her head and asked hesitantly, "You care so much about my identity, don't you care about my happiness?"

Yulanas froze for a moment, gave up struggling, and lowered his head in silence—of course he cared, wanting to protect her smile and purity more than anyone else.

Serenity took a deep breath and said slowly.

"Actually...I probably worry about whether you have taken care of yourself every day."

"You have to practice sword every day, and you are always injured, but you never protect yourself. Miranda is so cold, but you are alone. What should you do if you are sick? Just thinking about it like this makes me very worried. In the palace in winter While sipping hot chocolate and hugging the stove, I'm thinking, what about you?"

"I know that both your father and my mother have put a lot of pressure on you. They hope that you can become the strongest sword to protect me, so you dare not stay in the mother country. You are afraid that your fragility and softness will be exposed, so you always pretend By myself, I am fighting on the border alone."

"Ulanas, I know, I really know." She raised her head again and faced him, "You want to fight for me, to protect me. You always work hard Take all the responsibility to protect everyone, always cruelly leave the pain to yourself, and always refuse to accept that you also have the right to enjoy happiness. Because you are afraid of losing, afraid of hope but still alone in the end.”

Yulanas' hands couldn't stop shaking. As a soldier, he had seen life and death, cruelty, and blood, but in front of his beloved, he could only be that fragile person.

"But I don't know what to do. When you left, I was very sad, really sad. I wanted to be with you, but I knew that would only put more pressure on you. I can only believe that you will die one day." Will come back. Worried about whether you were injured again in the battle, I will climb to the top of the city wall, because when I feel the wind, I know you must still be by my side."

"I don't know how to let you know that I am also by your side. Sometimes I will leave a piece of lily cake on purpose. I hope that when you come back, I know that there are people who have been thinking about you. Every time I go out to play, I will bring things to my sisters, but I dare not bring things to you, because I once saw a tough flower like a sword, I think it looks like you, but I can only look at the flowers Even withering can't wait for you."

"When I am afraid, I will tell myself that I must be strong, and I must work hard to be the one you want, the dazzling princess. I also want to be a warrior who can protect the important people in me, and protect everyone with silver crystals. Maybe Then you won’t be alone.” Serenity held his hand tightly, and she, who was not good at expressing those serious words, suddenly nodded shyly and smiled, “If I don’t say it, I don’t even know I miss you so much It’s been a long time, and I’ve done so many stupid things, maybe... I fell in love with Yulanas a long time ago.”

Start with the first glance.

"Princess." Ulanas's voice was heartbroken and soft. Looking at the strong and hard-working girl in front of him, his heart felt sour. A drop of hotness ran across his cheek and hit Serenity's hand, making her tremble.

"Ulanas, you are crying." Serenity has never seen Ulanas cry, maybe he always hides all his weakness.The tears made Serenity really sour and happy, the sourness was the bitterness in his heart, and the joy was that he finally confessed his sadness.

She reached out to wipe it for him, but was held tightly in his arms.

"Princess!" Yulanas found that he was so choked up that he couldn't speak, so he could only call her over and over again, tears falling like a bank of tears.

——My little princess, why do you want to know me so well and understand my deepest fear so well?Why, you have to work so hard for me?Why, you broke all my strength so easily?

"Uranus." Serenity clasped his hands on his back, "I am here, I will always be here... No matter what happens, I am willing to believe in you." ——Because you are my warrior ah.

"Ulanas..." Serenity pressed her face against his chest, hugged him tightly, and comforted him.

Yulanas didn't move, just relaxed his body, leaning against her, weeping silently.

The breeze blows slowly, blowing the fallen leaves, but the somewhat chilling scene outside the palace gate is warm and bright because of the two people embracing each other.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*You may have noticed that I was very careful to use male, female, and her. Xiaoyao’s current gender is the gender I use. Even in memory, the same pronoun will still remain, so in the last chapter Ulanas is a female identity. This chapter has shifted to masculinity.

Serenity finally found her love for Yulanas in the trivial memory of time Oh, some feelings start from the first sight, although chasing many things in a long time, but in this deep feeling Later, looking back, I found that the two of them had already laid the groundwork.

Yulanas has always been struggling. Since he was taught by his father what the consequences of being close to Serenity were when he was a child, he lost all the courage to approach her, and would only desperately protect her when she was in danger. Will comfort her carefully when she is sad, but dare not confess that feeling.

Because once there is affection, Serenity will bear all the hostility.Yulanas couldn't accept letting her get hurt, so he had to avoid that feeling again and again, but he still got deeper and deeper unconsciously.

Uranus' care for Serenity is the loyalty and selflessness passed down from blood, he is unyielding, and he is a brave knight.He is three years older, and when he sees the cute little princess, he will try his best to protect him in any state of mind.From the moment he was conscious, he knew that he was alone all his life, fighting alone and guarding the border in desperate loneliness, so he learned to close his desire for family and love.

Different from the previous life of the original work, Serenity dreamed of the existence of Yulanas and others when she was about five years old, and even asked the queen to give them a chance to return to their home country.Because of this, Serenity met Yulanas and knew what it was like to be lonely and desperate.

He and Serenity are like people from two worlds. Serenity grew up being spoiled, but she is naturally kind, wants to share everything with everyone, knows how to be considerate, and wants to care for others.She is considerate and can see the hidden emotions of others, and Yulanas, who is the most lonely and depressed, has obviously become her "focused care object".Maybe I didn't like him at first, I just wanted to approach him simply because I hoped that the people around me would be happy, but I relied more and more on trust in his unhesitating protection again and again, and when I took the initiative to hold his hand, I suddenly realized that I wanted to The person she was looking for to support herself and make her strong and brave was Yulanas.

Serenity is out of reach of Ulanas, but he desires it selfishly. He wants to be close to that little girl who is born dazzling and warm, but he also understands the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, so he can't control what he did when he first met her. He gave a solemn hand kiss, expressing his absolute loyalty and protection, but he couldn't hide the longing and tenderness in his eyes.

The fates of Serenity and Yulanas were tied together from the moment they met. Even though Ulanas decided to stay away from Serenity because of his father's teachings, Serenity approached him again three years later.

Three years is the age difference between the two, and it is also the time when Serenity will always be separated from him.The name of this article, Three Years Courage, is borrowed from seven years itch, which probably means that two people need three years to accumulate courage.

I still want to talk about Antimio. Although the proposal has already been BE, he has always been the most suitable lover for Serenity. In my article, he will not be blackened.Respecting the original work, Andymio is the considerate, mature and rational prince who also loves Serenity deeply without selfishness and is willing to sacrifice his life for her.Serenity also had a good impression of him. He is wise, noble, considerate, and funny. He is the prince charming in every princess's heart. If Yulanas had never appeared, Serenity would probably fall in love with him and still be that The simple, princess who is willing to die for love leads to the tragedy of the original work.

It's just that after Yulanas appeared, her heart couldn't hold others, and she couldn't make up for it.

The difference is that Antimio still loves his country and righteousness, and he also has his own mission to shoulder, while Yulanas, as said in the article, can only pretend to be Serenity in his heart.Maybe this is the reason why I love Yaoyue so much, and why Serenity loves Yulanas the most.

The two still choose to embrace each other under the teasing and matching of fate, but they will still encounter many hardships in the future.After choosing to be together, they have to face infinite pressure and suffering, as long as they have that person by their side, they will have nothing to fear.
