Dark Contractor

Death?

Even about Yue Sheng, he must be seriously worried about Yue Sheng.

It must be like this, he will let Yue Sheng make the oath.

"Yue Sheng." Yue Sheng felt that the fingers touching her cheek were very... gentle.At the same time, the strong spirit proclaiming the existence of Alexis stimulated Yuesheng's nerves and made him feel hungry.

Yue Sheng glanced at You Beiru who was smiling in the painting.If there is an emotion of loneliness in my heart, maybe it is the feeling I have now.In any case, Alexis is a race that is incompatible with him, and this fact will only cause pain for Yuesheng now.

Although I want to be a human being, how long can I last?Perhaps he would be consumed by the desire to drink the essence of humanity, and Alexis alone would not be enough.This is because half of Yue Sheng is a demon and Alexis is a human.Just as the blood flowing from their bodies is different, the world they live in is also different.Standing in the position of swearing against each other.

"You..." Yue Sheng didn't speak any more, staring at his dark eyes.

For no reason.He fell in love with Alexis's piercing eyes, and he was gradually attracted to them.Even the soul is pulled, is this the feeling?

"Let me give you hope, Yuesheng." The words he had always wanted to hear slipped into his heart.

He wanted... hopes, desires, a reason to live.The things this man can give him.

He didn't want his relationship with Alexis to come to an end at this point, if he could.

This man told Yue Sheng his true colors, and gave him endless despair, but at the same time, he planned to make Yue Sheng hold on to hope.He felt that he needed this kind of ambiguous bond made up of contradictions.He wanted to peer into the man's abyss deeper than darkness.

The desire that emerged from the depths of my heart at that time.Is living like this, longing for relationships with others?

"...I don't need it." However, what Yuesheng spat out was words of rejection.

After all, I am not human.This must not be forgotten.

"what?"

"I hope this kind of thing... I don't need it."

Because this fragile and illusory line will be cut off at some point.

IX hopeless man

Stepping off the train at King's Cross Station, the breath of nostalgia stimulated Yuesheng's nostrils.

Stepping out of the station, there was still a gloomy fog over the city, exactly what London should be.The weather was getting worse and worse as they walked, Yue Sheng and Alexis took a two-wheeled carriage together, and when they were about to arrive at the apartment, it started to rain.

When I get home today, I might have to light the stove.After ten days away, Yue Sheng returned to the city he was used to living in again, and Yue Sheng had a fresh emotion.He realizes that he loves the city more than he thought.

For Yuesheng, his hometown is still this dusty city.

"Alexis." Yuesheng called his name when he was about to get out of the car, so he raised his head.

"Do you want to come to my house? At least have a cup of tea before leaving."

"No... I have to go back and check something." Alexis's answer was very concise, and Yue Sheng felt very disappointed.

Once recognized, the feelings cannot be stopped.Yue Sheng also couldn't deny that she didn't want to leave him.

"Or do you want to supplement nutrition?"

"How is that possible. I was just talking politely."

Dealing with him teasingly with harsh words, Yue Sheng only said: "Thank you for sending me back."

"...With Lucius looking after the house for you, I think there should be no problem, you still have to be careful." Alexis seemed to want to say something, but didn't speak again.

"Okay." If he continued to speak, maybe he would want to speak again to keep him.

Yue Sheng got out of the carriage, and quickly walked up the stairs of the apartment without looking back.

Yue Sheng stood at the door and turned the handle, and the door opened suddenly.Lucius who turned into a cat should not be able to open it. Yue Sheng felt suspicious and stepped into the room.

"You're back, Yuesheng!"

"Lucius..."

The one who showed his face was Lucius, who hadn't transformed into a human for a long time. When he saw Yuesheng, his voice was full of vitality.

Lucius looked like a well-bred young lady in a plain dress.

He heard the faint sound of a carriage parked on the side of the road driving away behind the door.

"I've finished cooking. I'm going to have a long-lost meal today." Lucius' excited and cheerful voice made Yuesheng feel a long-lost comfort.

"Have you returned to human form?"

"Because Alec told me to stay and watch the house."

Yuesheng replied "I see" to Lucius' answer, and then looked at the clock.

"Are you thinking about the store?"

"Yeah, because I'm the boss."

"But it's very late now, it's best not to go out in the evening." Lucius said to Yue Sheng with a sad expression. "St. George's Day is coming soon. There is an enchantment made by Alec here, so the little ones can't get in."

"Enchantment?" Yue Sheng put the coat, hat and veil covering his face into the closet, and sat on the bench.

"Yes. Didn't you notice?"

"Absolutely not."

Lucius brought the cup of hot black tea to Yuesheng, and asked with great interest. "How about Yorkshire?"

"No gain at all." Yue Sheng had a wry smile on his lips.

"Can't find your parents' house?"

"Although there are relatives there, but the house...my father went back to Yorkshire before he was alive and burned everything down."

"Burn it?" Lucius crossed his hands in front of his chest as if thinking about something.

"Hmm...couldn't it be a debt or something?"

"No, as far as I can remember, my parents were honest and honest. That's unlikely."

"Then, why don't you ask your friends here?"

Lucius clenched his fist and knocked on his hand, Yue Sheng shook his head with a troubled expression. "...I can't think of any friends."

"What do you mean by unexpected?"

"Although my father is very stable, and the relationship between husband and wife is also very good, but there are almost no one who can be called a friend. That's why..."

Just like Yuesheng is now, they are also living a life of deception.So even though Alexis said that this is a life of "I don't know whether to live or die", Yuesheng himself doesn't find it hard.

Yue Sheng suddenly fell into silence, Lucius might feel that he brought up a bad topic, he grabbed Yue Sheng's wrist to change the atmosphere.

"It's okay, forget it. Let's eat."

"Okay... that's right." Although Yue Sheng felt that he had other things to think about, but now he was too tired.

"Is the authentic Yorkshire pudding delicious? If you have a good recipe, please teach me." Just hearing Lucius' happy voice, Yue Sheng felt that his painful mood was much better.

Later, Yue Sheng saw an unread book on the low cabinet, so he frowned. "Has anyone been here?"

"what?"

"This book. I haven't bought this episode yet, Lucius, you don't read books, do you?"

Yue Sheng looked at Dickens's problematic copy of "Blood and Tears of Lone Star", and Lucius showed an embarrassed expression.

"Uberu was here last time."

"Did you let him in?"

"Because... I always feel that there is no way to leave him outside..."

Yue Sheng didn't quite understand the meaning of Lucius' words, since he had already entered, there was nothing he could do.

"I'm sorry, it's my own opinion." Lucius seemed to have reflected on it from the bottom of his heart, so Yue Sheng shook his head.

"It's okay. I'm not angry." Anyway, there's nothing here that can't fall into his hands, and he's not at home, so forget it.

At least it's better than meeting by chance.

"This time, I also went to a strange place to bother... I have no right to say anything about others."

"A strange place?"

"The Dowdings' castle."

After hearing this, Lucius whistled excitedly, then said "Oops", pressing his mouth nervously. "Alec really likes Yuesheng."

"Huh?" It was a surprising reaction.Hearing the unexpected words, Yue Sheng widened his eyes. "Because he wants me to be his familiar?"

"He must have forgotten about it. And even if you exchange ten familiars with Alec, he won't go to the Dowding's castle. Because they are in a state of severing relations."

"You're right, in my opinion, they really don't look like they have a good relationship..."

"If that's a good name, it's a harm." Lucius nodded repeatedly in response.

"By the way, Alexis and my brother don't look much alike. And there seems to be a lot of age difference."

"Really? I remember that Alec and his brother should be less than five years old?" Lucius put his hand on his temple and thought.

"……what?"

"How is this possible? Alexis looks about the same age as Yue Sheng, but Baron Dowding seems to be about 20 years older than Alexis."

"I can't remember, though. We don't seem to have had a good chat about it."

It seems that he is not perfunctory, but really does not know.

"Don't mention these things, let's eat. The meat is going to burn."

"Yes." Although she couldn't let go, Yue Sheng still nodded.

In fact, he had no appetite at all.Right now, my whole body is still hot and aching, and I only crave that sweet liquid.

He desperately wanted someone else's blood, or Alexis' spirit.I know very well that eating cannot satisfy my desire after all.

The trip to Yorkshire only made Yuesheng understand this simple and heavy fact.

I am not human.Unable to live with humans.

That is to say, Yue Sheng and Alexis are people from two different worlds, maybe because Alexis
