Carl closed his eyes, as if he wanted to take the opportunity to fully express all his thoughts to the other party.
"I... I am really thankful for your help to me all the time. Although you seldom say anything, you always pay attention to and protect me in secret. But what I say is not because of gratitude, nor is it purely What I want to repay is love, the kind of love between AO and lovers."
"I like you, Marshal Cromway, and I want to share with you every day's joys, sorrows and joys."
After Carl said that, he closed his eyes, as if he was waiting for the final judgment. His long and thick eyelashes trembled, and together with his whitened fingertips, he revealed the entanglement in his master's heart.
After a brief daze, Cromway didn't speak, but just stepped forward. Karl felt the distance between the person in front of him and him shrinking. When he opened his eyes again, he was surprised that Cromway was standing beside him. In front of him, Wei Wei lowered his eyes and looked at himself.
The distance between the two was only a few feet away, and the ice-blue eyes were so deep that they seemed to be sucking themselves into it. Carl could even hear his heart beating as he breathed.
Just when Karl felt that his lips were about to touch the corners of the other party's mouth, he couldn't help closing his eyes, waiting for the next second to come, but at this moment he heard footsteps outside the door, and the door was blocked by someone Pushing open, outside the door, a fish waiter was staring at the scene in front of him dumbfounded.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I, I was just passing by, just passing by, sorry!"
"...Her Royal Highness asked me to inform you that if Marshal Cromway wants to go to the guest room to rest, he has already vacated a room suitable for human habitation, but it seems that there is no need for it now...you continue , I will go back and return to my life with the queen!"
After saying that, Yu Shi hurriedly turned around and swam away in a panic.
Seeing the direction in which the fish waiter left, Carl was taken aback for a moment, then turned to look sideways at Cromway beside him, and the two looked at each other in a tacit understanding. Carl raised the corner of his mouth, thinking it was a little funny.
Because the charming atmosphere between the two had dissipated without a trace, Cromway stood up, as if he had returned to his cold appearance when he was outside, but his eyes were still fixed on Carl, and his eyes were full of tenderness.
Karl couldn't help but smile when he saw this, and smiled cleverly:
"Master Marshal, we still have a long life ahead, why bother to covet the day and night."
After all, Carl winked at Cromway.He didn't know that although his actions seemed unintentional, in Cromway's eyes, they were extremely rare provocations, which made Cromway couldn't help but stepped forward, took Karl into his arms, and responded in a deep voice:
"Ah."
In the end, Cromway did not go to the guest room, but lived in Carl's room, but because Carl changed back to the mermaid form, he returned to the sleeping position in the shell, so he did not sleep with Cromway .
But when he wakes up in the morning and can see the appearance of his beloved, Karl still feels like eating a jar of honey, with an indescribable sweetness in his heart.
"You have obviously lived together for more than half a year, why are you still so inseparable?"
The next day, when he saw the main hall coming to see himself and her husband, Karl was still holding Cromway's hand tightly, and Serena, who was sitting on a high seat, couldn't help joking. Karl's ears turned red when he heard this, and he didn't say anything , Kellogg also stroked his beard, and said with a smile:
"Your mother and I were worried about whether you would be bullied after arriving in the Langman Empire, thinking that we would fight for you no matter what, but now it seems that your mother and I are worrying too much, we should worry It should be related to your preparations for the wedding."
Hearing his parents' ridicule, Carl felt a little embarrassed, but when he looked up at Cromway, who was as handsome and tall as a poplar, he felt as if his heart was filled with warmth. And full.
Farewell to his parents, thinking that Cromway is also the first time to visit Atlantis, and he is still very confident in the beauty of his hometown, so Karl decided to take him for a walk around.
"This is your first visit to our Atlantis, right? Is there any place you want to go, I can show you around."
Seeing Karl looking at him expectantly, Cromway, who has never been attached to things like beautiful scenery, pondered for a moment before saying:
"Why don't you just take me to your favorite place."
"Eh……"
Carl was taken aback, obviously he didn't expect to get this answer, but seeing the other party looking at him, he suddenly felt that this answer was not so unexpected.
"Okay, then today I will take you through the places where I used to live."
Carl smiled, and the light and shadow flowed in the light golden eyes, which were as vivid as radiance for a moment.
Leading Cromway to follow his own growth footprint from childhood to adulthood, and walk through every corner of his growth, such as schools, parks, playgrounds... After walking through all of them, the light of artificial energy has gradually weakened, as if it was already dusk .
Small vendors on both sides of the street lit up their oil lamps one after another, and the orange light was like the afterglow of the setting sun on the land, adding a bit of warmth and luster to this beautiful country in the deep sea that was not available during the day.
Walking on the street at dusk with a lover, looking at the lights of thousands of houses and hurrying pedestrians together, feeling the rare peaceful time in a day, it is probably the happiest and warmest moment in a day for all lovers.
Feeling the thickness and warmth from the back of his hand, although Karl felt extremely at ease in his heart, as if a warm current wrapped his heart, making him feel at peace like never before, but in the past two days, he always felt a little apprehensive in his heart. Uneasy, as if there is a hidden monster hiding around him with a hidden crisis.
As early as noon today, Carl took advantage of Cromway's inattention and secretly asked his attendants what Prince Lindsay of the Kingdom of Bike was doing recently, and if he had made things difficult for his parents and Art after he left. Landis.
Although the guard shook his head again and again before he finished speaking, Carl knew from the dodging eyes of the other party that the truth must not be as smooth as the other party said, although he dare not say that Lindsay must feel sorry for himself parents, but Lindsay must have been to Atlantis after he left.
When passing by the last noodle shop on the corner of the street, Carl saw a familiar figure in the crowd. Although the man was wearing a black mask with the brim of the hat lowered down, his green eyes, like cat's eyes, were branded into him. The panic in Carl's bone marrow made him unable to breathe, and the painful memories of his previous life flooded into his heart like a sea, making Carl feel dizzy for a while.
Seeing that Karl's footsteps stopped suddenly, and the palms he held suddenly became cold and sweaty, Cromway looked at him with concern.
"what happened?"
"nothing……"
Memories of purgatory came flooding back in my heart, even though Karl said so, his ending sound was even trembling.
Seeing that Karl's face was pale, although Cromway didn't know what Karl saw, he could tell from Karl's expression that he must have recalled something bad, so he hugged him in his arms and moved towards Walk quickly in the direction of the palace.
Because he was worried about Karl's physical condition, after bringing Karl back to the palace, Cromway called in the imperial doctor to diagnose him. After getting Karl, he was only surprised and there was no serious problem. Cromway seemed to be relieved. After taking a breath, the brows that had been furrowed just now relaxed.
Looking at the colorful reagents delivered, because he didn't know how to use the mermaid medicine, after gently tucking up the quilt for Carl, Cromway went to the pharmacy to ask questions about the dosage and method, and everyone in the room At that time, only Carl was left alone.
The sound of closing the door sounded, Carl removed the quilt covering his body, and sat up instead. At this moment, he opened the palm he had just grasped tightly. The note in his hand was already wet with sweat, and the handwriting was blurred. But the content above haunted Karl like a nightmare.
Karl closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and made up his mind at the same time. Although his body was still a little uncomfortable, he still sat up from the bed and swam towards the bedroom of his father and queen.
Seeing Karl coming late at night, the guards in front of the palace were a little surprised.
"Does His Highness Karl have any orders?"
"I want to see my father and mother, can I trouble you to pass it on?"
Carl cleared his throat and suppressed the tremor in his voice. He didn't want his parents to see his weakness and worry about himself.
"It's so late, if you have anything to do, Your Highness, why not come back tomorrow during the day."
Seeing the guard's distressed face, Karl, who has always been soft and sticky, shook his head, appearing unexpectedly firm.
"I have something urgent to meet with my father and queen mother, please let me know."
Seeing that Karl was so persistent, the guard also knew that Karl was a well-behaved and filial person on weekdays, and would not have come late at night if he had something to do, so after thinking about it in his heart, he nodded to him.
"Okay, then I will inform His Majesty and the Queen, you wait outside for a while."
After a while, the door of the dormitory opened, and the guard came out from the door, nodding to Karl.
"His Majesty the King and His Majesty the Queen haven't rested yet. Go in, Your Majesty. Your Majesty and Your Highness are waiting for you."
Karl nodded gratefully to the guards, and turned to swim into the hall.
Seeing Carl coming late at night, although Serena was a little surprised, the smile on her face was as gentle as usual.
"It's so late, is there something urgent that Karl wants to tell us?"
Selina's voice was gentle, and Karl felt a little uncontrollably sad when he heard it, recalling his previous life, it was because of his willful behavior that led to the death of his parents and the extermination of the mermaid clan, thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a sore nose.
Carl originally didn't want to show any vulnerability in front of his parents, and he didn't want them to worry about him, but the tears seemed to be broken, and couldn't stop falling from his eyes. The moment those teardrops touched the ground, they turned into white The pearls, but Karl ignored them and let them roll to the ground.
"Good boy, this is fine, why are you crying?"
Selina was surprised by Carl's crying at first, but he didn't seem to want to notice and worry himself, so he bit his lip and turned the crying into a sob. Seeing Selina's heart ache even more, she hurried forward Come, lead Karl to the seat, and at the same time reach out and pat him on the back, just like putting him to sleep when he was a child, softly comforting:
"It's okay, just cry if you want to. You've come home with great difficulty, and you will inevitably suffer some grievances outside. It's good to vent all these discomforts. Home will always be your safe haven and solid backing."
Listening to Serena's reassurance, Carl also calmed down after a while. He blew his nose, raised his hand to wipe away the remaining tears from the corners of his eyes, and asked Serena and Kellogg who were looking at him with concern. .
"...Father, queen, after I left, did Lindsay feel sorry for you?"
Hearing that Karl asked this question in the first sentence after he stopped crying, Serena's expression froze, and then she frowned slightly, but although she hadn't spoken yet, the hesitation in her eyes had already confirmed Karl's heart. worry.
"nothing."
"Father and Queen Mother, you don't have to hide it from me. If I don't have evidence, I won't come to ask you." Karl said.
Hearing Carl's words, Serena and her husband looked at each other with complex eyes.Of course they knew how smart their little son was, and he was more careful than ordinary people. Because of this, they didn't want him to bear too many responsibilities that didn't belong to him.
But seeing that Karl had already asked the question, she knew that it would be difficult to hide it any longer. Serena sighed, and then spoke leisurely after a while.
"Your father and I didn't want you to know this, but since you asked, of course we can't hide it from you anymore."
"Shortly after you left, Lindsay asked us about your whereabouts. At first, it was just sending letters, but later it turned into visits from time to time, so frequent that it was almost harassment. Your father and the king also I know, you young people are prone to encounter stalkers after breaking up, so I didn't tell him your whereabouts, but I never thought that he still found out where you are."
"As for the embarrassment and threats... many of them are not big things. After all, your father and I are also the lords of a country. We haven't seen any big storms and waves for so many years, so ordinary methods can't pose any threat to us. It's just... From time to time outside the city, there will be a small group of soldiers from the Kingdom of Baik coming to patrol, as if provoking."
Seeing that Karl was listening, his eyebrows frowned involuntarily, Serena hurriedly said:
"But don't worry, your father sent additional soldiers to defend the city as soon as he heard the news."
"...In that case, why didn't you tell me?"
Carl asked in a hoarse voice, but the circles of his eyes inadvertently turned red again.
"After all, these things are not your fault. If even we can't protect the country and its people, why do you, a child, have to take this responsibility?"
Selena sighed, she reached out and touched the top of Carl's hair, her eyes showed some of the most loving concern of a mother.
"Father, Queen Mother..."
Tears unconsciously blurred Karl's vision. The mermaids have beautiful looks that are envied by the world, but they have inevitably left the imprint of time on their bodies. With a face that is no longer young, Carl Penguin seems to have a gnat in his throat, with indescribable pain.
"You don't have to say that. Since I am the prince of Atlantis and enjoy the most high-end resources on weekdays, I naturally need to take on the responsibility of being a prince and protect the people."
"So." Carl sniffled and took a deep breath, "I don't want you to think I'm a child, I hope to share the worries for you and the empire, and I hope you don't hide anything from me."
After Carl finished speaking, he looked at his parents who were stunned in front of him, his eyes were like stars in the night sky, they were unprecedentedly firm and bright.
Perhaps it was because she felt that her youngest son had become strong and mature. That night, after Carl finished speaking, Serena told Carl what happened a while ago, And listening to it one by one, the more Karl listened, the angrier he became, and at the same time he felt Lindsay's despicability and shamelessness.
The next day, while Cromway was going to the pharmacy, Carl arrived at the place agreed on the note.It's just that Karl is very clear that with Lindsay's level of shame, if he doesn't satisfy his ideas, he might use some despicable means to kidnap him, so although he boarded the city, he didn't go down , but stood on the tower and looked at each other across the air.
Looking into the distance, looking at the lover who he once regarded as his salvation under the tower, Karl only felt it was ridiculous.And this long distance seems to be not only reflected in the space distance between the two, but also seems to be a natural moat, completely separating the present Karl from the past.
"Long time no see, my little mermaid."
After seeing Carl, Lindsay took off the mask and hat he was wearing on his face, revealing the pair of green eyes that Carl was most familiar with. He hooked his thin lips and smiled at Carl.
"Tell me, why did you come to me?"
Ignoring Lindsay's deliberate approach, Carl looked cold. If he had forgiven the other party at the beginning of his rebirth, but the flames of old love and intolerance had been eliminated by the other party's repeated words and deeds Exhausted.
"Carl, come back to me, you should only belong to me forever."
"Isn't it good to be my little mermaid?"
As if he didn't see Carl's frozen look, Lindsay smiled and opened his arms to him at the same time.
"Lindsay." Carl took a deep breath, as if he had exhaled all the turbid gas in his lungs, and then he spoke in the same tone as usual, "Didn't you want to ask me this question all the time?"
"Then I will tell you today, you are dreaming!"
"I will always belong to myself, and Cromway will never ask me to submit to him. Even if I have connected with him, I will always be free in front of him. What's more, with harm and deceit The emotion of the premise can never be called love.”
"Okay, okay...very good."
Seeing that he had made concessions repeatedly, but Karl didn't give himself any face at all, and even trampled his dignity under his feet because of his preference, Lindsay's face turned green and white, and after a while, he sneered, his eyes were full of world Every venomous snake in the world is vicious.
"Carl, you are really impressive now...you are more determined, braver and more eye-catching than before."
"It doesn't matter if you don't admit what I just said, anyway, as long as the city is broken, you will be mine sooner or later."
After all, seeing that Karl just looked at him with a cold look that was almost disgusting from the beginning to the end, he didn't intend to come down at all.Seeing that her trap had failed, although Lindsay was furious, she had no choice but to leave these words behind and left with anger and resentment.
The author has something to say: start hammering scumbags! ! !
"I... I am really thankful for your help to me all the time. Although you seldom say anything, you always pay attention to and protect me in secret. But what I say is not because of gratitude, nor is it purely What I want to repay is love, the kind of love between AO and lovers."
"I like you, Marshal Cromway, and I want to share with you every day's joys, sorrows and joys."
After Carl said that, he closed his eyes, as if he was waiting for the final judgment. His long and thick eyelashes trembled, and together with his whitened fingertips, he revealed the entanglement in his master's heart.
After a brief daze, Cromway didn't speak, but just stepped forward. Karl felt the distance between the person in front of him and him shrinking. When he opened his eyes again, he was surprised that Cromway was standing beside him. In front of him, Wei Wei lowered his eyes and looked at himself.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I, I was just passing by, just passing by, sorry!"
"...Her Royal Highness asked me to inform you that if Marshal Cromway wants to go to the guest room to rest, he has already vacated a room suitable for human habitation, but it seems that there is no need for it now...you continue , I will go back and return to my life with the queen!"
After saying that, Yu Shi hurriedly turned around and swam away in a panic.

As if he didn't see Carl's frozen look, Lindsay smiled and opened his arms to him at the same time.
"Lindsay." Carl took a deep breath, as if he had exhaled all the turbid gas in his lungs, and then he spoke in the same tone as usual, "Didn't you want to ask me this question all the time?"
"Then I will tell you today, you are dreaming!"
"I will always belong to myself, and Cromway will never ask me to submit to him. Even if I have connected with him, I will always be free in front of him. What's more, with harm and deceit The emotion of the premise can never be called love.”
"Okay, okay...very good."
Seeing that he had made concessions repeatedly, but Karl didn't give himself any face at all, and even trampled his dignity under his feet because of his preference, Lindsay's face turned green and white, and after a while, he sneered, his eyes were full of world Every venomous snake in the world is vicious.
"Carl, you are really impressive now...you are more determined, braver and more eye-catching than before."
"It doesn't matter if you don't admit what I just said, anyway, as long as the city is broken, you will be mine sooner or later."
After all, seeing that Karl just looked at him with a cold look that was almost disgusting from the beginning to the end, he didn't intend to come down at all.Seeing that her trap had failed, although Lindsay was furious, she had no choice but to leave these words behind and left with anger and resentment.
