After making the oath with Susa and confessing to each other that day, Adrian's life, which was disordered due to the arrival of Serrell, gradually returned to its original calm with the relief of inner emotions and the enlightenment of his friends.
He no longer tried to guess Serrell's thoughts, and no longer caught the other's movements, but concentrated on living his own life as Susa suggested, while concentrating on bringing The brain domain has further expanded to the scope of legends, while thinking about how to help Susa improve his strength... He was originally a scholar-type character, but now he has someone who can show himself without reservation, and the character of being a good teacher back then is no longer affected. He raised his head repressively.Although Susa still insists on learning martial arts, the so-called "one method is mastered, ten thousand methods are mastered", because Adrian's mastery of the rules is not only better than that of the past, it is natural to guide a martial arts practitioner who has just started No problem.
After all, if you don't consider the part of martial arts and moves, the use of grudge is still the control of energy, and who can grasp this more accurately than Adrian in the current Nutaier continent?It only took half a day, while he was practicing in his brain, he constructed a more suitable fighting spirit training method for his friend, and he was persuading Susa to practice spiritual power—his reason was to better Control energy──Finally, a series of training plans were drawn up, so that this bitter child who had been groping on his own for many years finally realized the feeling of leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade.
Even though the current Adrian has not yet recovered the strength of a demigod, nor does he have the countless rare treasures accumulated in the past for the opponent to squander, but this kind of guidance alone is more precious than any artifact.
And Susa, whose strength is improving by leaps and bounds day by day, also after realizing the background of this demigod lord more and more deeply, he became more and more disgusted with the two culprits who forced him to die back then, and at the same time, he looked forward to the return of the other party. Glorious day.
──In fact, after knowing that his friend now possesses the strength of the peak of the ninth level and can break through the holy rank at any time, Susa has never been curious about the reason why the other party suppressed his cultivation and did not advance to the rank; Unexpectedly, the reason why the other party would rather endure the trouble of heart disease than break through is just because of appearance.
Of course, considering the fact that the other party has reached the threshold of holiness at the age of eleven or twelve, this kind of decision is not so difficult to understand... But the youngest holiness record on the mainland is still at 23 years old —— Thurley back then Under the circumstances of ──, Adrian's troubles are undoubtedly quite extravagant.
In fact, from a friend's point of view, Susa doesn't agree with Adrian's decision, which is almost like risking his life. After one incident, the situation after that is considered stable, and she pays attention to diet, work and rest, and exercise, so Susa is worried. She just tells herself that she should pay more attention to the situation of her friends, and does not try to impose her own thoughts. to the opponent's head.
It is precisely because of this kind of personality that both think about each other and know how to respect each other's ideas. Although the two people have a huge age difference in soul, they can only get along more harmoniously when they get along; and Adrian also lived a peaceful life because of this. , fulfilling and happy days.If there were any twists and turns, it would only be the scolding Serena received when she brought the medicine.
But this kind of calm, in the final analysis, is still based on evasion.
Avoiding... not thinking about Serrell's thoughts, not thinking about the tiny possibility between each other, not thinking about the confession that will come one day, and the possible consequences.
Sometimes, Adrian would also think... If he decided to give up early on, so what's the point of escaping all the way to sanctification or if he is completely cold-hearted?It’s just that even with a soul close to the level of a god, the development of things is always difficult to follow his will——Adrian, who was far away from his apprentice and enjoyed a stable life for nearly two months, could never have imagined that the man who seemed to have never come to Los Angeles The person who put him aside after Ryan, unexpectedly came to him at the moment when he had finally found peace of mind.
Perhaps because of the scruples that caused him unnecessary attention, the silver-haired Juggernaut did not go directly to the classroom to pick up Adrian when Adrian finished class as he did in the Royal Academy of De La Chaer, but chose to go to Aimeran No. [-] Waiting in front of the building, and deliberately picked when he was free and Susa hadn't finished class... Looking at the silver-haired and silver-eyed figure standing quietly in front of the dormitory door, Adrian Twitching his chest, he suddenly realized that his tranquility in the past two months was really just an escape.
──After all, if he had really let go, how could he arouse emotions enough to affect his physical condition just by seeing that figure?It's just that the other party has locked his eyes firmly on him since he was still on the other side of the path. No matter how much Adrian deceives himself, it is impossible to really ignore the existence of the other party.
Not to mention... It's been a long time since I saw Serrell, and the feeling of Serre... seems to be a little different.
Perhaps because of Susa's release, although Adrian can still feel the familiar pain, the feeling of being unable to face it has faded a lot, allowing him to use it for the first time after that out-of-control night. Such a relatively calm and objective attitude to look at the people in front of you.
──Serrell is definitely different.
──Or... It should be said that he returned to the way he was when he saw the other party for the first time after being reborn.
In the past 11 years, in the eyes of Adrian, who is familiar with the temperament of his apprentice, the character of the silver-haired swordsman has gradually changed from the depression that was suppressed under the gentle appearance at the beginning, even though his attitude towards himself is different from when he was an apprentice. The feeling is still changing towards 400 years ago—especially the actions of unconsciously getting close to himself and unconsciously teasing his mind, which made him experience the torment he had experienced for more than 400 years.
But now, after the short meeting two months ago, the man who appeared in front of him again seems to be completely abandoned by any atmosphere that can be called joyful and joyful, even though he still uses the "Silver Hunter" Falcon's shell, but it gave Adrian the feeling that he saw the Lord Pei Du standing in front of him.
With... the shadow of being abandoned by the whole world and living only in revenge and guilt.
──If it is said that Adrian has any insurmountable weakness in being a human being in two lives, it must be his inability to let go of his apprentice and his soft heart.
If it weren't for the inability to let go, the reluctance to let go, he fell into the conspiracy of Xifa because of Serrell 400 years ago, and after experiencing the heart-wrenching heartache caused by his apprentice, he would have given up the past with ease. Let his painful emotions climb to a higher level, why bother to struggle so hard now?It's just that even if Adrian is aware of his own weakness, he can see that Serel, who seems to be crying blood in his heart, is standing in front of him, looking at him with those deep silver eyes that seem to be calm, but actually have a turbulent undercurrent. , those emotions that he could not get rid of in the two lifetimes filled his heart in an instant, so that he no longer had time to worry about the discord between them for more than a year, and slightly accelerated his pace to come to the other party.
"Eli? What's wrong? You..."
Accompanied by words that were obviously worried, the boy's golden eyes, which were also full of concern, turned to the silver eyes that made him feel extremely distressed just by looking at them.The concentration that seemed to be looking into the soul through the eyes made Serrell, who was facing him, feel as if he had returned to the past, back to the days when we were still intimate with each other, and he suddenly understood clearly. The reason why he fell in love with this child and completely fell into this pair of golden eyes.
But feeling these at this moment, to him, there is only irony, only pain, and only suffering.
So after all, he resisted the urge to hold him in his arms and feel the other person, and just patted Adrian on the shoulder like a real elder—not even the head he loved most in the past— Said in a gentle but not overly intimate tone:
"There's something I want to tell you. Let's go in and talk."
"……it is good."
Since his rebirth, it was the first time Adrian heard his apprentice speak to him in this tone.The vague restlessness in his heart caused him to hesitate for a while, but his caring for the child finally prevailed.So after a reply, even though there was a faint feeling in his chest that prevented him from continuing the conversation, he still obeyed the guidance of his emotions and led Serrell into the dormitory where he had lived for half a year.
──And this is the first time Serrell has entered this small building in several months. He has secretly peeped into the small building more than once.
Since Adrian and Susa made friends, in addition to their respective rooms, they also made a lot of arrangements for the common space in Building No. [-], so the first time you enter the house, it feels like a warm A small home, not just a dormitory that is just a resting place in life.That kind of harmonious feeling reminded Lord Peidu instantly of the countless intimate conversations between Adrian and Susa who had been spying on him... The sourness in his chest was so thick that it could almost corrode people, but Before it transformed into the possessive desire to erase the traces of other people and only have the young man in front of him alone, he was suppressed by the shackles called "guilt" before he lost control.
Enduring and suppressing, as if everything was the last, he watched his boy rush in and out, neatly arranged everything needed to entertain guests, whether it was a pot of scented tea that was brewed just right, It is still a stack of small snacks that are not perfect in appearance, but nutritious and delicious inside.Although the person in front of him was still the beautiful boy he was familiar with, with a slightly slender figure, but at this moment, Serrell no longer doubted whether the other person had the ability to stand on his own.
In fact, he should have recognized this as early as half a year ago, but he was blinded by his own desires and chased after Lorian on the pretext of being uneasy, but in the end, he disturbed a pool of spring water and affected the other party's supposedly stable state of mind , Life and death made the child whose body had no relationship with the word "health" suffer a lot.
And now, it's time for everything to come to an end.
Looking at the person who allowed him to learn and experience many emotions that he hadn't understood in the past 11 years in just 400 years, Serrell felt that the emotions in his chest were almost overflowing; , I can't feel more deeply than some kind of unspeakable sadness.
It's just... no matter how much he cares, no matter how reluctant he is, for the sake of this child and the responsibilities he should fulfill, it is impossible for him to continue this friendship forever as he originally expected.
This is the answer he came up with in the past two months since he was completely awakened by Serena's visit that day.
"Adrian..."
Seeing that the child finally sat down in front of him after being busy for a while, Serrell wanted to stay in the silent but harmonious atmosphere of the previous moment more than anyone else, but he still forced himself to make up his mind. He spoke to the boy who still didn't know what would happen next:
"There are some things, Leon has already told me... I am sorry for the troubles I have caused you over the years because of my insistence on going my own way."
"Eli...?"
And such an opening statement was undoubtedly completely beyond the expectations of Adrian who was listening.
When he was evading a little while preparing to entertain guests, it wasn't that he hadn't imagined the reason why Serrell suddenly came to the door; An apology that wasn't exactly what the blond pseudo-boy would have guessed -- not to mention that Adrian didn't really think it was anything to apologize for.
Although he used that reason as an excuse to persuade Leon, but he is already an ancestor in his bones, how could he really care about a group of hairy kids?So after a brief moment of astonishment, before Serrell could find the right words, he continued and said:
"It doesn't have to be like this... I know you're doing it for my own good, Eli. Although I told my brother that way at the beginning, I actually... don't hate the feeling of being taken care of by you and cared about by you."
As he said that, he was afraid that his apprentice would misunderstand him, and he didn't want to hurt his apprentice's heart because of it. As if he wanted to prove his sincerity, he never hesitated to turn his golden eyes full of care to his eyes again. man.The deep concern and the urgency to express something because of worry made him have no leeway to confirm his expression, so that the deep feeling that was never really tightly hidden, but was missed time and time again by accident, finally For the first time, it was completely exposed to Serrell's eyes.
──The unstoppable affectionate gaze filled with concentration is unexpectedly familiar.
At this moment, Serrell felt that his whole body seemed to be completely divided into two halves, one half was joyful and joyful for this sentiment that echoed his own love; A sharp blade that pierces through.
──How could he not be familiar with it?
More than 400 years ago, there was a pair of silver eyes that looked at him with such tenderness that the whole heart melted... But before that, his impression of those silver eyes was always wise and loving He is kind and tolerant, so the moment he accidentally noticed that the other party had abnormal feelings for him, he almost immediately raised a strong alert and resistance to that tenderness... Although the other party was just watching from the beginning to the end.
But his vigilance and resistance caused those silver eyes to lose the brilliance of life little by little in front of his eyes. Not only did not even the corpse survive, but the soul that should have looked down upon the entire Nutaier continent also disappeared in Xiao Xiao's hands.
That was the most painful memory of his life, and also the heaviest crime of his life.So even though the meaning contained in the tender gaze of the young man in front of him should have surprised him greatly, but what filled Serrell's heart at this moment was the pain that was like tearing his heart and lungs.
──What is he happy about?
──How could he be happy?
After killing his master because of such stupidity and self-righteousness, he is no longer qualified to be loved or loved by others, so how can he be like this... Because his boy's beautiful eyes are full of affection, he is so happy Do you want to kiss those pink lips with a slight gleam of water deeply?
He doesn't deserve and shouldn't have such affection, and he can't... drag this child who is supposed to have his own life into his messy mess.
Perhaps, from the very beginning, getting to know and get close to this child who can make him feel redeemed was the biggest mistake.
Because he doesn't deserve it.
He didn't deserve to be redeemed, much less... to have those beautiful golden eyes, such a focused, tolerant, loving gaze.
Looking at the young man who was still looking at him tenderly and trying to convey some strength, Serrell felt unprecedented pain in his heart at this moment, but also unprecedented satisfaction, so he finally raised his palm in response and gently She caressed the young man's cheek, and after seeing the slight glow on that exquisite face, she suppressed the urge to hug him tightly, and said words that were completely different from her current state of mind:
"you misunderstood."
He said softly, with a gentle tone, but with a bit of intentional indifference: "I just do what I should do, and there is nothing else."
"should……?"
Another unexpected answer made Adrian, who was vaguely aware that the situation was beginning to evolve in a familiar direction, trembled slightly, subconsciously wanted to refute "how is it possible", but realized that "I" had no position to say such a thing After the words, he breathed out, and reluctantly changed the way of saying:
"But... if it's not true, Serena and brother... can't all──"
"You still don't understand, little Adrian."
Deliberately reverting to the tone he used to speak to the boy who was still Xiaodouding, the Lord Pei Du had a gentle look towards the boy, but his silver eyes showed an almost deadly indifference as if to prove something...
"Remember what I said? The reason why I saved you back then was to make up for the regrets of the past... just to let you live well instead of the person I owed. Naturally, these cares are what should be done."
In the past, "Eli Winster" used the excuse of "sister"; but at this moment, somehow, he couldn't tell such a lie again, and could only tell the reason why he paid attention to Adrian in the first place , using "that person" instead of the unspoken master.
But at this moment, Adrian understood the hidden meaning of the other party without hindrance.
Because of the same name, because of the various coincidences when they met, Serel, who felt guilty, decided to take good care of this man who had the same name as his master, as a kind of atonement...so those meticulous care, those who seemed to completely let him go All the care in his heart is just to pay for the inevitable payment of the crime, not... because he really cares about the son of the duke's mansion named Adrian Farion.
And even though he knew that the reason for the other party's "redemption" was still "myself" after all, Adrian was still gouged out by such gentle but knife-like words, one by one.
The previously incomparably clear vision had become blurred before he knew it.In a trance, he only felt as if he had returned to the dark green-based room in the East Wing of the Duke's Mansion from the warm and warm Building No. [-]; The appearance of silver hair and silver eyes always made him think that the other party was paying homage to him... In exchange for the black color that was deeply imprinted in his heart.
And the person in front of him who can always easily hurt him to pieces, just like in memory, did not stop after those words that were enough to hurt people, but seemed to want to vomit quickly, and then As if to break something, he continued to spit out those words that sound gentle but are actually cold──
"So don't get me wrong, Adrian."
Serrell's voice was slightly hoarse, even though his heart was filled with reluctance because of the stunned expression of the person in front of him, he still forced himself to say enough words to push him away:
"I'm sorry if my actions have caused you any illusions... But I will not, and it is impossible for me to have any wrong thoughts about a child-and a child I approached for redemption. In What happened to De La Ciel is my fault, but I hope you don't have any expectations because of it... If it causes Serena or Leon to misunderstand, I will be very troubled."
Although he didn't say it bluntly, such words clearly showed his awareness and rejection of the youth's affection.
──In a cruel enough way, as if saying that the other party is just wishful thinking.
And Adrian couldn't understand more clearly what the man wanted to express.
He used to be deeply afraid that his affection would be noticed by the other party, and he also thought that the other party's avoidance was the worst result of the former; but until now, hearing every word Serrell said in a polite and unfamiliar tone, he felt I know that I am still too naive after all.
How could he have forgotten?
Forgot... this person whom he regards as a treasure and cares about deeply, who is not willing to let the other party suffer even the slightest grievance...how cruel it can be.
But at this moment, he didn't even feel the strange feeling he had 400 years ago.
400 years ago, he could explain himself by saying that Serrell only said that when he was manipulated by Xifa; but at this moment, the already legendary Serrell did not hold the God Slayer Dagger, nor was he manipulated by Xifa. possibility.Those words were spoken to him by the real Serrell Clancy...after he had been through so much, even died once.
But he didn't even have the courage to say "I am your master" in front of the other party.
I can only... change my identity, but again and again, get hurt badly by that cruel child.
──Or, should he be thankful that the other party just said that he was passionate this time, instead of saying that he was dirty or disgusting?Recalling what he saw in the mirror and how he looked like a teenager, Adrian only felt a sense of disgust welling up in his chest, but because he didn't want to show weakness, he just held on and waited masochistically. More hurtful words.
But Serrell didn't continue.
Even if he wanted to push the child away in the most straightforward way, he couldn't help but worry about Adrian's heart disease... Fortunately, although the face of the person in front of him was a little pale, he hadn't yet reached the point of seizure. The fluctuations of the ground mitigation technique still existed, so after seeing the blond boy just standing upright without saying a word and not reacting too much, Serel, who was afraid that he would fall short uncontrollably, didn't stay any longer, just felt deeply After glancing at the young man's pale but still strong and enduring expression, he hurriedly left the No. [-] building and returned to his teacher's dormitory in the Mowu Academy.
──He walked too fast and panicked, so he didn't have time to hear the extremely subtle but deadly "click" sound in Building No. However, before he could take out the tablet, he passed out, and the slender figure slumped on the floor of the living room...
──Susa couldn't imagine what kind of scene he would have faced... if he hadn't returned to the dormitory early for some reason.
Looking at his friend on the bed who was breathing weakly and pale, but somehow managed to save his life, the brown-haired boy had never been so thankful for a moment for the precautions he had cultivated due to his past experiences.
If he hadn't asked Serena to give him part of the medicine for safekeeping, if he hadn't begged Adrian to make a few scrolls of palliative techniques for backup, even if he returned to the dormitory before the other party died, it would be impossible for the healer to give him some medicine. Save Adrian's ever-losing life before his arrival.
Recalling how the other party collapsed on the floor of the living room, even though the most dangerous moment had passed and the aura of the person in front of her had returned to calm, Susa still couldn't help feeling afraid for a while, and arranged everything on the bed. After Pan sat down, he didn't let go of that soft but cold palm... For him at this moment, only by feeling the weak but definite pulse of the other party can he truly feel the feeling of "he really saved people back" "Sense of peace of mind.
He knew that if anything went wrong today, he would live in guilt for the rest of his life.
Because he has already seen through the stupidity of someone's nature, but did not take precautions; also because he did not have the "understanding" to persuade Adrian to make a breakthrough as soon as possible.
Yes... Although he has never seen it with his own eyes, based on Susa's knowledge of his old friend and the fact that there are still cups and trays of snacks in the living room, he has no doubt that the reason why Adrian had a heart attack must be He got up because of an uninvited guest; and the uninvited guest who should have known Adrian's situation better than he did, but left after doing something that was enough to make Adrian lose control, without even staying for a moment to confirm the other's well-being .
That last point alone was enough to make him uncontrollably angry and murderous towards that man's irresponsibility.
But he couldn't and couldn't do it.
Because there may be other good therapists in Lori Ann State University, but if anyone knows Adrian's physical condition best, it is still the man who deserves to be killed.
──As a matter of fact, Susa didn't think about seeking help from other directions.As early as when he rescued Adrian and was worrying about what to do next, he had already used Adrian's teleporter to contact Leon who was far away in De La Chaer.It’s just that the far water can’t save the near fire, and Leon who got the news couldn’t do anything except worry with him, so that in the end he had no choice but to ask someone to report the letter to the Magic and Martial Academy with a black face, letting that person be the culprit The man in the world takes a good look at what good deeds he has done.
The waiting time is always long.Although he knew that Adrian's condition had stabilized and would not change much for the time being, while waiting for that bastard man to come over, Susa still felt that the other man was as slow as if he had only grown a leg, and endured I couldn't help but turned the person back and forth in my heart and scolded him several times... But when the person finally rushed over with a pale face and saw Adrian on the bed who seemed to have died half-life, the expression he showed instantly , but for the first time Susa felt the kind of joy that he could not get no matter how much he scolded before.
──Although this kind of enjoyment is at the price of facing the opponent's almost out-of-control coercion.
"what happened!"
Looking at the pale and slender figure lying quietly on the small bed in the dormitory, who seemed to be about to pass away at any time, Serel, who was still a little unbelievable after hearing the news, felt his head spinning for a while, although he barely held on In order not to stagger and lose his composure on the spot, the incomparably restless and disordered emotions after meeting Adrian are no longer difficult to suppress──
"What's going on? How could Adrian... He has always been in control, and he hasn't had an attack for 11 years... How could..."
"...I thought you should know better than anyone else."
Seeing the unbelievable expression on that man's face, Susa only felt that she had never hated a person so much in her life, and now she resisted the pressure of the other person and stopped him from trembling as he wanted to approach the bed, while the other person was angry at him. When he glared over, he met him head-on without flinching, and said with a sneer:
"Do you know what I saw when I returned to the dormitory after class? I saw a cup of cold tea and a stack of half-used snacks on the coffee table in the living room, and Adrian was so helpless. He fell angrily on the floor next to him, grabbed the front of his chest with his right hand, but he couldn't even hold it tightly enough, he just closed his eyes and panted intermittently... At that time, his whole body was cold to the touch, If I come back a moment later, what will be the result? And who caused this result, who has the ability to affect Adrian’s emotions to such an extent, you still come to ask me what’s going on? This question is not Should you ask yourself? Wen, Si, Te, Jian, Sheng?"
Even if she didn't know what happened, Susa could guess from the fact that her friend had a heart attack and she must have been greatly wronged.So facing the man who clearly caused everything but was still out of the situation, he gritted his teeth at the end, even the call that could be regarded as an honorific title was full of strong hostility and irony.
But Serrell had no energy left to argue with him.
He just murmured "no" and "shouldn't be like this", trying to dig out from his memory the scene of him hurriedly escaping from Building No. However, his mind was always occupied by the expression of Adrian looking at him blankly with those beautiful golden eyes open, like some kind of silent protest, and also like accusing him of stupidity... and his cruelty.
──Is this the result of his sense of guilt and the ridiculous idea that he thought he was looking out for the other party?
His words actually... pushed the child he cherished and cared about the most to such a degree.
But why?
He clearly confirmed it before he left... With the mitigating technique on the pendant, it is definitely enough to stabilize the situation before Adrian loses control of his emotions enough to endanger his life, so how could it be—
Thinking of this, recalling the words and sentences I said to Adrian, I faintly realized why Serrell's face darkened, and then he ignored Susa's obstruction and walked to the bed a few times as if he wanted to confirm something , The probe picked out the golden pendant from the collar of the sleeping blond boy.
──At first glance, it still has the same shape as before, but if you use the sensory detection, you can find that this legendary item pendant has been completely destroyed. Not only the purple spirit crystal on the head has been broken, but the key The magic array has been slightly distorted and deformed as if it was subjected to some external force, so that the precise structure lost its original function, and Adrian's illness, which was already well under control, relapsed after 11 years. do.
But he made this pendant himself, and he knows better than anyone else how strong it is. If it wasn't deliberately damaged, how could it be reimbursed after 11 years of use?Recalling the sentence he said when he refused Adrian, "Let you live well instead of the person I owe", and the description Susa mentioned just now that the other party was still clutching the chest with his right hand when he was unconscious, The possibility that emerged in Serrell's mind instantly turned the guilt and self-blame that had just arisen in Serrell into an anger that could burn out his reason.Not caring about anything else at the moment, he swung his arms around the boy who was still sleeping on the bed, then summoned a space rift and took a step, just like that, he disappeared into the bedroom with him in his arms.
Looking at the empty bed, and then at the bedroom where she was left alone in a blink of an eye, Susa felt that things were changing too fast for a while, but before she could calm down and clarify her thoughts, she heard hurried footsteps outside The sound was interrupted... Recalling what Adrian mentioned about the various detection and defense formations inside Lorien, I knew that the brown-haired boy in trouble secretly screamed that something was wrong, but he still had to temporarily put down his thoughts on Adrian. I will try my best to come up with a suitable explanation before the academy comes...
"As long as I think of what kind of intentions Master has in raising me, and how he usually lusts after me, I will feel disgusted. 』
"Why do you think I suddenly decided to leave the mage tower to go out to practice?Is it because I can't bear the look in your eyes... As long as I think that Master has such dirty thoughts about me, I might be unable to hold back and burst out one day. Tower stays on. 』
"you misunderstood. 』
"Remember what I said?The reason why I saved you back then was to make up for the regrets of the past... just to let you live well in place of the person I owed, these cares are naturally what should be done. 』
"I'm sorry if my actions have caused you any illusions... But I will not, and it is impossible for me to have any unreasonable thoughts about a child-and a child I approached for the sake of redemption.What happened in De La Ciel is my fault, but I hope you don't have any expectations because of it... If Serena or Leon are misunderstood by this, I will be very troubled. 』
Adrian Clancy; Adrian Farren.
Even though there was a distance of 400 years between them, and the dual identities were completely irrelevant, and they even paid for everything with death... But why?
Why... After experiencing such pain, he was reborn, and he had to endure it again?
──Just because he still loves Serrell wrongly, just because there is still a big part of his heart that regards the other party as his own and it is difficult to let go, so he deserves to suffer such pain, he deserves to... Were you overwhelmed by that child's cruel words?
He was wrong.
It's his wishful thinking, he loves and cares about Serrell with dual identities at the same time; it's also because he thinks he wants to comfort and protect the other party, but forgets that what he wants to give is not necessarily what the other party needs.That's why he repeated the same mistakes again, and paid the price of his life because of that child.
The ridiculous thing is: this time, he didn't have the consciousness to give his life at all, but he still felt the feeling of death coming in a trance, and then he realized that the pendant that had helped him stabilize his emotions for so many years... finally in He was completely useless in his disordered mental fluctuations.The ensuing severe pain and the rapid loss of strength made it impossible for him to perform a palliative technique on himself, let alone open the space and take out the medicine bottle?
Knowing that I could have done this long ago
He no longer tried to guess Serrell's thoughts, and no longer caught the other's movements, but concentrated on living his own life as Susa suggested, while concentrating on bringing The brain domain has further expanded to the scope of legends, while thinking about how to help Susa improve his strength... He was originally a scholar-type character, but now he has someone who can show himself without reservation, and the character of being a good teacher back then is no longer affected. He raised his head repressively.Although Susa still insists on learning martial arts, the so-called "one method is mastered, ten thousand methods are mastered", because Adrian's mastery of the rules is not only better than that of the past, it is natural to guide a martial arts practitioner who has just started No problem.
After all, if you don't consider the part of martial arts and moves, the use of grudge is still the control of energy, and who can grasp this more accurately than Adrian in the current Nutaier continent?It only took half a day, while he was practicing in his brain, he constructed a more suitable fighting spirit training method for his friend, and he was persuading Susa to practice spiritual power—his reason was to better Control energy──Finally, a series of training plans were drawn up, so that this bitter child who had been groping on his own for many years finally realized the feeling of leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade.
Even though the current Adrian has not yet recovered the strength of a demigod, nor does he have the countless rare treasures accumulated in the past for the opponent to squander, but this kind of guidance alone is more precious than any artifact.
And Susa, whose strength is improving by leaps and bounds day by day, also after realizing the background of this demigod lord more and more deeply, he became more and more disgusted with the two culprits who forced him to die back then, and at the same time, he looked forward to the return of the other party. Glorious day.
──In fact, after knowing that his friend now possesses the strength of the peak of the ninth level and can break through the holy rank at any time, Susa has never been curious about the reason why the other party suppressed his cultivation and did not advance to the rank; Unexpectedly, the reason why the other party would rather endure the trouble of heart disease than break through is just because of appearance.
Of course, considering the fact that the other party has reached the threshold of holiness at the age of eleven or twelve, this kind of decision is not so difficult to understand... But the youngest holiness record on the mainland is still at 23 years old —— Thurley back then Under the circumstances of ──, Adrian's troubles are undoubtedly quite extravagant.
In fact, from a friend's point of view, Susa doesn't agree with Adrian's decision, which is almost like risking his life. After one incident, the situation after that is considered stable, and she pays attention to diet, work and rest, and exercise, so Susa is worried. She just tells herself that she should pay more attention to the situation of her friends, and does not try to impose her own thoughts. to the opponent's head.
It is precisely because of this kind of personality that both think about each other and know how to respect each other's ideas. Although the two people have a huge age difference in soul, they can only get along more harmoniously when they get along; and Adrian also lived a peaceful life because of this. , fulfilling and happy days.If there were any twists and turns, it would only be the scolding Serena received when she brought the medicine.
But this kind of calm, in the final analysis, is still based on evasion.
Avoiding... not thinking about Serrell's thoughts, not thinking about the tiny possibility between each other, not thinking about the confession that will come one day, and the possible consequences.
Sometimes, Adrian would also think... If he decided to give up early on, so what's the point of escaping all the way to sanctification or if he is completely cold-hearted?It’s just that even with a soul close to the level of a god, the development of things is always difficult to follow his will——Adrian, who was far away from his apprentice and enjoyed a stable life for nearly two months, could never have imagined that the man who seemed to have never come to Los Angeles The person who put him aside after Ryan, unexpectedly came to him at the moment when he had finally found peace of mind.
Perhaps because of the scruples that caused him unnecessary attention, the silver-haired Juggernaut did not go directly to the classroom to pick up Adrian when Adrian finished class as he did in the Royal Academy of De La Chaer, but chose to go to Aimeran No. [-] Waiting in front of the building, and deliberately picked when he was free and Susa hadn't finished class... Looking at the silver-haired and silver-eyed figure standing quietly in front of the dormitory door, Adrian Twitching his chest, he suddenly realized that his tranquility in the past two months was really just an escape.
──After all, if he had really let go, how could he arouse emotions enough to affect his physical condition just by seeing that figure?It's just that the other party has locked his eyes firmly on him since he was still on the other side of the path. No matter how much Adrian deceives himself, it is impossible to really ignore the existence of the other party.
Not to mention... It's been a long time since I saw Serrell, and the feeling of Serre... seems to be a little different.
Perhaps because of Susa's release, although Adrian can still feel the familiar pain, the feeling of being unable to face it has faded a lot, allowing him to use it for the first time after that out-of-control night. Such a relatively calm and objective attitude to look at the people in front of you.
──Serrell is definitely different.
──Or... It should be said that he returned to the way he was when he saw the other party for the first time after being reborn.
In the past 11 years, in the eyes of Adrian, who is familiar with the temperament of his apprentice, the character of the silver-haired swordsman has gradually changed from the depression that was suppressed under the gentle appearance at the beginning, even though his attitude towards himself is different from when he was an apprentice. The feeling is still changing towards 400 years ago—especially the actions of unconsciously getting close to himself and unconsciously teasing his mind, which made him experience the torment he had experienced for more than 400 years.
But now, after the short meeting two months ago, the man who appeared in front of him again seems to be completely abandoned by any atmosphere that can be called joyful and joyful, even though he still uses the "Silver Hunter" Falcon's shell, but it gave Adrian the feeling that he saw the Lord Pei Du standing in front of him.
With... the shadow of being abandoned by the whole world and living only in revenge and guilt.
──If it is said that Adrian has any insurmountable weakness in being a human being in two lives, it must be his inability to let go of his apprentice and his soft heart.
If it weren't for the inability to let go, the reluctance to let go, he fell into the conspiracy of Xifa because of Serrell 400 years ago, and after experiencing the heart-wrenching heartache caused by his apprentice, he would have given up the past with ease. Let his painful emotions climb to a higher level, why bother to struggle so hard now?It's just that even if Adrian is aware of his own weakness, he can see that Serel, who seems to be crying blood in his heart, is standing in front of him, looking at him with those deep silver eyes that seem to be calm, but actually have a turbulent undercurrent. , those emotions that he could not get rid of in the two lifetimes filled his heart in an instant, so that he no longer had time to worry about the discord between them for more than a year, and slightly accelerated his pace to come to the other party.
"Eli? What's wrong? You..."
Accompanied by words that were obviously worried, the boy's golden eyes, which were also full of concern, turned to the silver eyes that made him feel extremely distressed just by looking at them.The concentration that seemed to be looking into the soul through the eyes made Serrell, who was facing him, feel as if he had returned to the past, back to the days when we were still intimate with each other, and he suddenly understood clearly. The reason why he fell in love with this child and completely fell into this pair of golden eyes.
But feeling these at this moment, to him, there is only irony, only pain, and only suffering.
So after all, he resisted the urge to hold him in his arms and feel the other person, and just patted Adrian on the shoulder like a real elder—not even the head he loved most in the past— Said in a gentle but not overly intimate tone:
"There's something I want to tell you. Let's go in and talk."
"……it is good."
Since his rebirth, it was the first time Adrian heard his apprentice speak to him in this tone.The vague restlessness in his heart caused him to hesitate for a while, but his caring for the child finally prevailed.So after a reply, even though there was a faint feeling in his chest that prevented him from continuing the conversation, he still obeyed the guidance of his emotions and led Serrell into the dormitory where he had lived for half a year.
──And this is the first time Serrell has entered this small building in several months. He has secretly peeped into the small building more than once.
Since Adrian and Susa made friends, in addition to their respective rooms, they also made a lot of arrangements for the common space in Building No. [-], so the first time you enter the house, it feels like a warm A small home, not just a dormitory that is just a resting place in life.That kind of harmonious feeling reminded Lord Peidu instantly of the countless intimate conversations between Adrian and Susa who had been spying on him... The sourness in his chest was so thick that it could almost corrode people, but Before it transformed into the possessive desire to erase the traces of other people and only have the young man in front of him alone, he was suppressed by the shackles called "guilt" before he lost control.
Enduring and suppressing, as if everything was the last, he watched his boy rush in and out, neatly arranged everything needed to entertain guests, whether it was a pot of scented tea that was brewed just right, It is still a stack of small snacks that are not perfect in appearance, but nutritious and delicious inside.Although the person in front of him was still the beautiful boy he was familiar with, with a slightly slender figure, but at this moment, Serrell no longer doubted whether the other person had the ability to stand on his own.
In fact, he should have recognized this as early as half a year ago, but he was blinded by his own desires and chased after Lorian on the pretext of being uneasy, but in the end, he disturbed a pool of spring water and affected the other party's supposedly stable state of mind , Life and death made the child whose body had no relationship with the word "health" suffer a lot.
And now, it's time for everything to come to an end.
Looking at the person who allowed him to learn and experience many emotions that he hadn't understood in the past 11 years in just 400 years, Serrell felt that the emotions in his chest were almost overflowing; , I can't feel more deeply than some kind of unspeakable sadness.
It's just... no matter how much he cares, no matter how reluctant he is, for the sake of this child and the responsibilities he should fulfill, it is impossible for him to continue this friendship forever as he originally expected.
This is the answer he came up with in the past two months since he was completely awakened by Serena's visit that day.
"Adrian..."
Seeing that the child finally sat down in front of him after being busy for a while, Serrell wanted to stay in the silent but harmonious atmosphere of the previous moment more than anyone else, but he still forced himself to make up his mind. He spoke to the boy who still didn't know what would happen next:
"There are some things, Leon has already told me... I am sorry for the troubles I have caused you over the years because of my insistence on going my own way."
"Eli...?"
And such an opening statement was undoubtedly completely beyond the expectations of Adrian who was listening.
When he was evading a little while preparing to entertain guests, it wasn't that he hadn't imagined the reason why Serrell suddenly came to the door; An apology that wasn't exactly what the blond pseudo-boy would have guessed -- not to mention that Adrian didn't really think it was anything to apologize for.
Although he used that reason as an excuse to persuade Leon, but he is already an ancestor in his bones, how could he really care about a group of hairy kids?So after a brief moment of astonishment, before Serrell could find the right words, he continued and said:
"It doesn't have to be like this... I know you're doing it for my own good, Eli. Although I told my brother that way at the beginning, I actually... don't hate the feeling of being taken care of by you and cared about by you."
As he said that, he was afraid that his apprentice would misunderstand him, and he didn't want to hurt his apprentice's heart because of it. As if he wanted to prove his sincerity, he never hesitated to turn his golden eyes full of care to his eyes again. man.The deep concern and the urgency to express something because of worry made him have no leeway to confirm his expression, so that the deep feeling that was never really tightly hidden, but was missed time and time again by accident, finally For the first time, it was completely exposed to Serrell's eyes.
──The unstoppable affectionate gaze filled with concentration is unexpectedly familiar.
At this moment, Serrell felt that his whole body seemed to be completely divided into two halves, one half was joyful and joyful for this sentiment that echoed his own love; A sharp blade that pierces through.
──How could he not be familiar with it?
More than 400 years ago, there was a pair of silver eyes that looked at him with such tenderness that the whole heart melted... But before that, his impression of those silver eyes was always wise and loving He is kind and tolerant, so the moment he accidentally noticed that the other party had abnormal feelings for him, he almost immediately raised a strong alert and resistance to that tenderness... Although the other party was just watching from the beginning to the end.
But his vigilance and resistance caused those silver eyes to lose the brilliance of life little by little in front of his eyes. Not only did not even the corpse survive, but the soul that should have looked down upon the entire Nutaier continent also disappeared in Xiao Xiao's hands.
That was the most painful memory of his life, and also the heaviest crime of his life.So even though the meaning contained in the tender gaze of the young man in front of him should have surprised him greatly, but what filled Serrell's heart at this moment was the pain that was like tearing his heart and lungs.
──What is he happy about?
──How could he be happy?
After killing his master because of such stupidity and self-righteousness, he is no longer qualified to be loved or loved by others, so how can he be like this... Because his boy's beautiful eyes are full of affection, he is so happy Do you want to kiss those pink lips with a slight gleam of water deeply?
He doesn't deserve and shouldn't have such affection, and he can't... drag this child who is supposed to have his own life into his messy mess.
Perhaps, from the very beginning, getting to know and get close to this child who can make him feel redeemed was the biggest mistake.
Because he doesn't deserve it.
He didn't deserve to be redeemed, much less... to have those beautiful golden eyes, such a focused, tolerant, loving gaze.
Looking at the young man who was still looking at him tenderly and trying to convey some strength, Serrell felt unprecedented pain in his heart at this moment, but also unprecedented satisfaction, so he finally raised his palm in response and gently She caressed the young man's cheek, and after seeing the slight glow on that exquisite face, she suppressed the urge to hug him tightly, and said words that were completely different from her current state of mind:
"you misunderstood."
He said softly, with a gentle tone, but with a bit of intentional indifference: "I just do what I should do, and there is nothing else."
"should……?"
Another unexpected answer made Adrian, who was vaguely aware that the situation was beginning to evolve in a familiar direction, trembled slightly, subconsciously wanted to refute "how is it possible", but realized that "I" had no position to say such a thing After the words, he breathed out, and reluctantly changed the way of saying:
"But... if it's not true, Serena and brother... can't all──"
"You still don't understand, little Adrian."
Deliberately reverting to the tone he used to speak to the boy who was still Xiaodouding, the Lord Pei Du had a gentle look towards the boy, but his silver eyes showed an almost deadly indifference as if to prove something...
"Remember what I said? The reason why I saved you back then was to make up for the regrets of the past... just to let you live well instead of the person I owed. Naturally, these cares are what should be done."
In the past, "Eli Winster" used the excuse of "sister"; but at this moment, somehow, he couldn't tell such a lie again, and could only tell the reason why he paid attention to Adrian in the first place , using "that person" instead of the unspoken master.
But at this moment, Adrian understood the hidden meaning of the other party without hindrance.
Because of the same name, because of the various coincidences when they met, Serel, who felt guilty, decided to take good care of this man who had the same name as his master, as a kind of atonement...so those meticulous care, those who seemed to completely let him go All the care in his heart is just to pay for the inevitable payment of the crime, not... because he really cares about the son of the duke's mansion named Adrian Farion.
And even though he knew that the reason for the other party's "redemption" was still "myself" after all, Adrian was still gouged out by such gentle but knife-like words, one by one.
The previously incomparably clear vision had become blurred before he knew it.In a trance, he only felt as if he had returned to the dark green-based room in the East Wing of the Duke's Mansion from the warm and warm Building No. [-]; The appearance of silver hair and silver eyes always made him think that the other party was paying homage to him... In exchange for the black color that was deeply imprinted in his heart.
And the person in front of him who can always easily hurt him to pieces, just like in memory, did not stop after those words that were enough to hurt people, but seemed to want to vomit quickly, and then As if to break something, he continued to spit out those words that sound gentle but are actually cold──
"So don't get me wrong, Adrian."
Serrell's voice was slightly hoarse, even though his heart was filled with reluctance because of the stunned expression of the person in front of him, he still forced himself to say enough words to push him away:
"I'm sorry if my actions have caused you any illusions... But I will not, and it is impossible for me to have any wrong thoughts about a child-and a child I approached for redemption. In What happened to De La Ciel is my fault, but I hope you don't have any expectations because of it... If it causes Serena or Leon to misunderstand, I will be very troubled."
Although he didn't say it bluntly, such words clearly showed his awareness and rejection of the youth's affection.
──In a cruel enough way, as if saying that the other party is just wishful thinking.
And Adrian couldn't understand more clearly what the man wanted to express.
He used to be deeply afraid that his affection would be noticed by the other party, and he also thought that the other party's avoidance was the worst result of the former; but until now, hearing every word Serrell said in a polite and unfamiliar tone, he felt I know that I am still too naive after all.
How could he have forgotten?
Forgot... this person whom he regards as a treasure and cares about deeply, who is not willing to let the other party suffer even the slightest grievance...how cruel it can be.
But at this moment, he didn't even feel the strange feeling he had 400 years ago.
400 years ago, he could explain himself by saying that Serrell only said that when he was manipulated by Xifa; but at this moment, the already legendary Serrell did not hold the God Slayer Dagger, nor was he manipulated by Xifa. possibility.Those words were spoken to him by the real Serrell Clancy...after he had been through so much, even died once.
But he didn't even have the courage to say "I am your master" in front of the other party.
I can only... change my identity, but again and again, get hurt badly by that cruel child.
──Or, should he be thankful that the other party just said that he was passionate this time, instead of saying that he was dirty or disgusting?Recalling what he saw in the mirror and how he looked like a teenager, Adrian only felt a sense of disgust welling up in his chest, but because he didn't want to show weakness, he just held on and waited masochistically. More hurtful words.
But Serrell didn't continue.
Even if he wanted to push the child away in the most straightforward way, he couldn't help but worry about Adrian's heart disease... Fortunately, although the face of the person in front of him was a little pale, he hadn't yet reached the point of seizure. The fluctuations of the ground mitigation technique still existed, so after seeing the blond boy just standing upright without saying a word and not reacting too much, Serel, who was afraid that he would fall short uncontrollably, didn't stay any longer, just felt deeply After glancing at the young man's pale but still strong and enduring expression, he hurriedly left the No. [-] building and returned to his teacher's dormitory in the Mowu Academy.
──He walked too fast and panicked, so he didn't have time to hear the extremely subtle but deadly "click" sound in Building No. However, before he could take out the tablet, he passed out, and the slender figure slumped on the floor of the living room...
──Susa couldn't imagine what kind of scene he would have faced... if he hadn't returned to the dormitory early for some reason.
Looking at his friend on the bed who was breathing weakly and pale, but somehow managed to save his life, the brown-haired boy had never been so thankful for a moment for the precautions he had cultivated due to his past experiences.
If he hadn't asked Serena to give him part of the medicine for safekeeping, if he hadn't begged Adrian to make a few scrolls of palliative techniques for backup, even if he returned to the dormitory before the other party died, it would be impossible for the healer to give him some medicine. Save Adrian's ever-losing life before his arrival.
Recalling how the other party collapsed on the floor of the living room, even though the most dangerous moment had passed and the aura of the person in front of her had returned to calm, Susa still couldn't help feeling afraid for a while, and arranged everything on the bed. After Pan sat down, he didn't let go of that soft but cold palm... For him at this moment, only by feeling the weak but definite pulse of the other party can he truly feel the feeling of "he really saved people back" "Sense of peace of mind.
He knew that if anything went wrong today, he would live in guilt for the rest of his life.
Because he has already seen through the stupidity of someone's nature, but did not take precautions; also because he did not have the "understanding" to persuade Adrian to make a breakthrough as soon as possible.
Yes... Although he has never seen it with his own eyes, based on Susa's knowledge of his old friend and the fact that there are still cups and trays of snacks in the living room, he has no doubt that the reason why Adrian had a heart attack must be He got up because of an uninvited guest; and the uninvited guest who should have known Adrian's situation better than he did, but left after doing something that was enough to make Adrian lose control, without even staying for a moment to confirm the other's well-being .
That last point alone was enough to make him uncontrollably angry and murderous towards that man's irresponsibility.
But he couldn't and couldn't do it.
Because there may be other good therapists in Lori Ann State University, but if anyone knows Adrian's physical condition best, it is still the man who deserves to be killed.
──As a matter of fact, Susa didn't think about seeking help from other directions.As early as when he rescued Adrian and was worrying about what to do next, he had already used Adrian's teleporter to contact Leon who was far away in De La Chaer.It’s just that the far water can’t save the near fire, and Leon who got the news couldn’t do anything except worry with him, so that in the end he had no choice but to ask someone to report the letter to the Magic and Martial Academy with a black face, letting that person be the culprit The man in the world takes a good look at what good deeds he has done.
The waiting time is always long.Although he knew that Adrian's condition had stabilized and would not change much for the time being, while waiting for that bastard man to come over, Susa still felt that the other man was as slow as if he had only grown a leg, and endured I couldn't help but turned the person back and forth in my heart and scolded him several times... But when the person finally rushed over with a pale face and saw Adrian on the bed who seemed to have died half-life, the expression he showed instantly , but for the first time Susa felt the kind of joy that he could not get no matter how much he scolded before.
──Although this kind of enjoyment is at the price of facing the opponent's almost out-of-control coercion.
"what happened!"
Looking at the pale and slender figure lying quietly on the small bed in the dormitory, who seemed to be about to pass away at any time, Serel, who was still a little unbelievable after hearing the news, felt his head spinning for a while, although he barely held on In order not to stagger and lose his composure on the spot, the incomparably restless and disordered emotions after meeting Adrian are no longer difficult to suppress──
"What's going on? How could Adrian... He has always been in control, and he hasn't had an attack for 11 years... How could..."
"...I thought you should know better than anyone else."
Seeing the unbelievable expression on that man's face, Susa only felt that she had never hated a person so much in her life, and now she resisted the pressure of the other person and stopped him from trembling as he wanted to approach the bed, while the other person was angry at him. When he glared over, he met him head-on without flinching, and said with a sneer:
"Do you know what I saw when I returned to the dormitory after class? I saw a cup of cold tea and a stack of half-used snacks on the coffee table in the living room, and Adrian was so helpless. He fell angrily on the floor next to him, grabbed the front of his chest with his right hand, but he couldn't even hold it tightly enough, he just closed his eyes and panted intermittently... At that time, his whole body was cold to the touch, If I come back a moment later, what will be the result? And who caused this result, who has the ability to affect Adrian’s emotions to such an extent, you still come to ask me what’s going on? This question is not Should you ask yourself? Wen, Si, Te, Jian, Sheng?"
Even if she didn't know what happened, Susa could guess from the fact that her friend had a heart attack and she must have been greatly wronged.So facing the man who clearly caused everything but was still out of the situation, he gritted his teeth at the end, even the call that could be regarded as an honorific title was full of strong hostility and irony.
But Serrell had no energy left to argue with him.
He just murmured "no" and "shouldn't be like this", trying to dig out from his memory the scene of him hurriedly escaping from Building No. However, his mind was always occupied by the expression of Adrian looking at him blankly with those beautiful golden eyes open, like some kind of silent protest, and also like accusing him of stupidity... and his cruelty.
──Is this the result of his sense of guilt and the ridiculous idea that he thought he was looking out for the other party?
His words actually... pushed the child he cherished and cared about the most to such a degree.
But why?
He clearly confirmed it before he left... With the mitigating technique on the pendant, it is definitely enough to stabilize the situation before Adrian loses control of his emotions enough to endanger his life, so how could it be—
Thinking of this, recalling the words and sentences I said to Adrian, I faintly realized why Serrell's face darkened, and then he ignored Susa's obstruction and walked to the bed a few times as if he wanted to confirm something , The probe picked out the golden pendant from the collar of the sleeping blond boy.
──At first glance, it still has the same shape as before, but if you use the sensory detection, you can find that this legendary item pendant has been completely destroyed. Not only the purple spirit crystal on the head has been broken, but the key The magic array has been slightly distorted and deformed as if it was subjected to some external force, so that the precise structure lost its original function, and Adrian's illness, which was already well under control, relapsed after 11 years. do.
But he made this pendant himself, and he knows better than anyone else how strong it is. If it wasn't deliberately damaged, how could it be reimbursed after 11 years of use?Recalling the sentence he said when he refused Adrian, "Let you live well instead of the person I owe", and the description Susa mentioned just now that the other party was still clutching the chest with his right hand when he was unconscious, The possibility that emerged in Serrell's mind instantly turned the guilt and self-blame that had just arisen in Serrell into an anger that could burn out his reason.Not caring about anything else at the moment, he swung his arms around the boy who was still sleeping on the bed, then summoned a space rift and took a step, just like that, he disappeared into the bedroom with him in his arms.
Looking at the empty bed, and then at the bedroom where she was left alone in a blink of an eye, Susa felt that things were changing too fast for a while, but before she could calm down and clarify her thoughts, she heard hurried footsteps outside The sound was interrupted... Recalling what Adrian mentioned about the various detection and defense formations inside Lorien, I knew that the brown-haired boy in trouble secretly screamed that something was wrong, but he still had to temporarily put down his thoughts on Adrian. I will try my best to come up with a suitable explanation before the academy comes...
"As long as I think of what kind of intentions Master has in raising me, and how he usually lusts after me, I will feel disgusted. 』
"Why do you think I suddenly decided to leave the mage tower to go out to practice?Is it because I can't bear the look in your eyes... As long as I think that Master has such dirty thoughts about me, I might be unable to hold back and burst out one day. Tower stays on. 』
"you misunderstood. 』
"Remember what I said?The reason why I saved you back then was to make up for the regrets of the past... just to let you live well in place of the person I owed, these cares are naturally what should be done. 』
"I'm sorry if my actions have caused you any illusions... But I will not, and it is impossible for me to have any unreasonable thoughts about a child-and a child I approached for the sake of redemption.What happened in De La Ciel is my fault, but I hope you don't have any expectations because of it... If Serena or Leon are misunderstood by this, I will be very troubled. 』
Adrian Clancy; Adrian Farren.
Even though there was a distance of 400 years between them, and the dual identities were completely irrelevant, and they even paid for everything with death... But why?
Why... After experiencing such pain, he was reborn, and he had to endure it again?
──Just because he still loves Serrell wrongly, just because there is still a big part of his heart that regards the other party as his own and it is difficult to let go, so he deserves to suffer such pain, he deserves to... Were you overwhelmed by that child's cruel words?
He was wrong.
It's his wishful thinking, he loves and cares about Serrell with dual identities at the same time; it's also because he thinks he wants to comfort and protect the other party, but forgets that what he wants to give is not necessarily what the other party needs.That's why he repeated the same mistakes again, and paid the price of his life because of that child.
The ridiculous thing is: this time, he didn't have the consciousness to give his life at all, but he still felt the feeling of death coming in a trance, and then he realized that the pendant that had helped him stabilize his emotions for so many years... finally in He was completely useless in his disordered mental fluctuations.The ensuing severe pain and the rapid loss of strength made it impossible for him to perform a palliative technique on himself, let alone open the space and take out the medicine bottle?
