prisoner of time

The dark elf managed to stabilize his mind, held the light elf's hand covering his face, and asked softly, "Your Highness, what's the matter? What happened?"

"It's nothing." Befilus held the dark elf's hand instead, "I need to go out for a while, it may be a little dangerous."

Instead of whitewashing the peace, he told Fanain about the possibility of an accident.He knew that his dark elf was very smart, and he would try his best to arrange everything for him, but he didn't want Fanayin to be kept in the dark, but he hoped that the other party could also know it well and make preparations early.In this way, if an accident does happen, the loss can be minimized.

"But don't worry too much. It's not clear what's going on right now. As long as I'm careful, there's still a good chance I'll come back safely." Befiles comforted me with a smile.

After all, Achille and the Elf King were not stupid, and they wouldn't let Befiles really risk his life to do something that would probably lead to his death.

He leaned over and kissed the dark elf's chin again, and pressed the tip of his nose against the other party intimately: "For you, I will come back too."

It was an emergency, and Befilus had to leave early the next morning.

That night, he and Vanna possessed each other to their heart's content because of selflessness, and before finally falling asleep from exhaustion, Befilles still didn't forget to ask his dark elf to wake him up in the morning.

But until Befeles fell asleep and woke up naturally, Fanain didn't call him.

Befeles suddenly opened his eyes, and woke up the dark elves beside him: "Van, what time is it?"

He didn't wait for the other party's answer, he jumped off the ground on his own, and opened the dark red velvet curtains. He didn't see the bright sky as he expected, but the sky was still dark, with a few shining stars on the edge of the sky.

At this time, the dark elf also got down to the ground, hugged his waist from behind, hugged him and whispered in his ear: "Your Highness, you have only slept for 10 minutes, let's rest for a while."

Befilus looked at the small silver clock on the cabinet belatedly. Indeed, it was not long before he fell asleep, and the night outside the window also explained everything.

Yes, he thought too much.Even if he and Fanain both overslept, the servants would come to the bedroom to wake him up if they couldn't see him at the meeting time.The time perceived in the dream is unreal, because I feel that it is really a bit of a fuss to rush down to the ground after sleeping for a long time.

"But I feel like I've slept for a long time, and I'm not sleepy at all now." Befilus muttered, letting his dark elf carry him back to the bed, and wrap him in a pure white quilt.

He is now full of energy, clear-headed, and completely sleepy. It doesn't look like he has only slept for 10 minutes.

"Does Your Highness want to do something?" Fanain asked gently.

It seems that there is nothing to do, not to mention leaving for the forest of life tomorrow, it is better to recharge your batteries.Thinking of this, Befilus lay down again with his dark elf in his arms.

But Pian Pian didn't have the slightest sleepiness in his mind. At first, he simply hugged Fanain and hugged him. Later, he couldn't help but gently kissed each other's shoulders and chest. In the end, the two couldn't restrain themselves and were inseparable. tangled up...

Befilus lay on the dark elf's body and breathed calmly. He raised his head to face Fannayin's dark red eyes, and blurted out involuntarily: "...I will be in danger when I go out this time. Do you want to go with me?"

I don't worry about taking him to risk myself, and I don't worry about leaving him alone here with no power to protect himself, waiting for him to come back and face the unknown future.In the end, he had no choice but to give the other party the right to choose, and let Fanain make his own choice.

Vannain caressed his beautiful pale golden hair, looked at the pair of pale golden pupils covered with a touch of uneasiness, looked at his lips that had turned bright red from the kiss just now, and finally stretched out his hand to press His Royal Highness. Come down, brand deep and shallow kisses on the eyelids and lips respectively:

"Of course, Your Highness, no matter where you go, I am willing to go with you...as long as you are willing to be with me."

Befilus finally decided to take his dark elves on the road together.

The accompanying guards naturally criticized this slightly, but Befilus has always been wise and capable, and has won the trust of his subjects. Did not show dissatisfaction.

Befilus still briefly explained to the thirteen people in the company: "Vannain is very capable and will not hold back. With him, he can take care of my daily life."

There were thirteen guards traveling with Befelius, but only seven would follow him into the Forest of Life, and the other six would stay outside as a caretaker. The reason of "taking care of His Highness's daily life" was obviously more acceptable. After Befiles explained it, the attendants no longer thought it was so strange that His Highness asked his beloved Dark Elf slave to follow him.

The Forest of Life is located on the east side of the capital, and the group of Befiles galloped all the way, and arrived at the central area of ​​the Forest of Life five days after they set off.

Yet here their journey comes to a head.

The compass showed that they had been circling the central area for two consecutive days, and could no longer move forward to the central hinterland.

They carry enough food and water, but the feeling of being in the same place day after day is maddening.Even more frightening is that some of them gradually began to hallucinate.

At first, a guard insisted that there was a black humanoid monster following them all the time, but they didn't find any clue about the monster.Then one night, the guard suddenly attacked the others, and his expression was extremely terrified, as if in his eyes, Befilus and the other eight were terrifying humanoid monsters.

Befilus had no choice but to order several other guards to subdue him and stun him, and then a guard took him back the same way and left the forest.

In this way, there are only five guards left in the team.

They continued to explore the way forward, but the good times didn't last long, and soon two more guards fell into hallucinations-one light elf guard mistakenly regarded himself as a monster, and the other light elf saw the monster killed by him many years ago. His neighbors came to him for revenge.The former ran into the forest and disappeared, while the latter behaved insanely, and finally stabbed himself to death with a dead branch uncontrollably.

Befiles had expected that many animals and plants in the Forest of Life were rare outside, and the source of the water flow was unknown, so there might be problems, so he prepared supplies in advance, and did not eat the water and food in the forest.However, I didn't expect that something went wrong, maybe because of the air, or maybe because of unknown power or spells.

The two guards were lost all at once, but they still haven't found the way forward, and they haven't found the reason for hallucinations. Befilus doesn't plan to stay any longer. The forest of life is more mysterious than he imagined. terrible.

He decided to go back the same way, and wait until he was fully prepared to investigate the situation of the Tree of Life.

What disturbed Befelès was that he himself had hallucinations on the first night when the five of them started their return trip after making this decision.

He felt his hands tied to the bed in their bedroom, but what bound him was not ordinary ropes or other tools, but dark red energy that seemed to be real.

He raised his head, and saw his dark elf staring at him with gazes that were completely different from those in the past, full of possessiveness and aggression, scanning every inch of his body, and then approaching him little by little...

And he was completely suppressed, unable to break free no matter what, he could only sob and helplessly let the other party do what he did, like a delicious sacrifice under the knife...

He was awakened by Vanain.

Befilus opened his eyes and saw his dark elf looking at him worriedly with his usual gentle eyes, calling him softly: "Your Highness, Your Highness, wake up, I am here..."

Befilus opened his eyes in confusion, and couldn't help shrinking back after seeing the person in front of him clearly. He was still immersed in the illusion of being oppressed and deprived by the dark elves.

After he was fully awake, he spontaneously leaned into Vanain's arms, put his arms around his neck and whispered, "What happened to me just now?"

At this time, it was late at night, and the bonfire burning outside the tent made the sound of burning and crackling, and the four walls of the tent reflected the shadows of the flames jumping.The night was very quiet, and the snoring of the three guards from the nearby tent could be vaguely heard.

The dark elf gently hugged his highness the prince into his arms: "Your highness may be having a nightmare, just now he has been humming softly and calling my name."

As he spoke, he kissed Befiles' eyes distressedly.
