Demon King's Mentor

Eric was absent-minded, and soon after finishing the work, he ran to the wooden house down the mountain. He opened the door panting, and Estero was sitting at the end of the bed staring at the stove in a daze.

The hanging heart finally let go. In the dim yellow room, Estero's waist-length blond hair was slightly disheveled. He was wrapped in a thin blanket, and he stretched his feet towards the stove calmly, with the warm color of the fire on his cheeks.

The scene at this moment almost made Eric feel at ease. He put down the firewood in his hand and said to Eastero, "I'm back."

Estero fluttered his eyelashes slightly, picked up the cup leaning on the stove and raised it to his lips, when his lips touched the wall of the cup, he was scalded by the slightly higher heat, he flinched all over, and licked it with the tip of his tongue lick your lips.

Eric walked over, snatched the cup from his hand, and put it on the stove. When Estero was wondering why he did this, the man pulled the blond hair from the back of his head and kissed his lips.

The prince let him kiss without any resistance, even when the other party licked his lips with his tongue, he was indifferent.Erik let go of him, looking down at the blond hair wrapped around his fingers, and catching a glimpse of his expressionless face, looking into the orange-red fiery blue-green eyes.

Erik pulled his fingers out of the blond hair, took a leaf out of his pocket, put it in Eastero's hand, and said to him, "Autumn is here."

Estero lowered his eyes and looked at the fiery red leaf: "It's been half a year."

"I'm sorry I rushed back today and didn't buy anything," Eric said. "I'll go to the market in two days when I have enough money."

Estero stared at the leaf, as if tracing its veins with his eyes. Eric sat beside him, stretched out his hand to smooth the hair on the back of his neck, and said, "Thank you for not leaving, Estero. You You know, the moment I walked in, I saw you were still there..." The man's voice was unsteady, "This place looks like a home to me..." His voice was choked with sobs, "I'm sorry... I didn't mean to...damn...sorry..." With that, Eric stood up and was about to leave.

Estero stopped fiddling with the leaf. He put the leaf beside the bed, looked at the dancing flames, and said suddenly, "Her ghost still haunts me, as long as I close my eyes."

Eric froze for a moment, turned his head to look at him, and Estero continued, "It's me who should say sorry."

"If her ghost haunts you, she's not a good mother." Eric sat down next to him again.

Estero looked at him. Eric never said anything wrong with Mrs. Eluchil in front of him. The prince shook his head: "But I chose her. Maybe it's because of the three candidates that Denat gave me. ’” Estero said, “only she would have made me choose someone else... maybe because I hated her in the first place and blamed it all on her, just like she blamed it all on me.”

"You shouldn't use her to punish yourself," Eric said.

"She must hate me too," Estero's fingers tightened on the bed sheet, "As soon as I close my eyes, I will suffer from her accusation, and I can't get rid of her, because her blood is flowing in my body ...she and those who died on the battlefield...as soon as I close my eyes..."

"So... give it up," Estero said, "I can't bear them tormenting me for the rest of my life, give it up, Eric, you can't heal me, stop shaking me."

"You are the most gentle knight in the world," Eastero looked into his eyes, "don't miss the entire starry sky just because of a shooting star."

"I'm not a knight, you know, I'm just a wild dog, and I've met the most beautiful star in my life," Eric held the other's hand, the flames danced in his green eyes, "I have no rules , I don’t know the rules, I only know that as long as I catch you, you will be mine.”

"Ten years," Estero rolled his eyes, "now I realize that I don't understand you at all."

"I try to show you the good side of me," Eric said, "but if the good side doesn't keep you, I don't mind showing you the bad side."

"I don't accept threats of any kind," Estero said.

"Then why don't you accept my offer?" Eric stood up, "Face everything that happened with me."

"If I had been a little more selfish, I'd have promised you," Eastero said, "but I know that it only takes one dream to realize that I can't get out of the darkness that's driving me crazy."

"Six months, 180 days and three days," Eric said, "I will prove to you that it was the right choice to let you live."
