His Highness traded his IQ for top-notch beauty
Chapter 07 Adult Feast
Gaya sat up straight slowly, her thin eyebrows frowned, her heart was beating violently: "God, God... Should I not ask..."
God's upper eyelashes trembled, and then he committed himself to picking up the box from the ground and putting it away, showing the same gentle smile to Gaya: "No, it's just that you asked me so suddenly, and I didn't realize it for a while."
He secretly sighed, and hugged the boy in his arms: "The reason is very simple. He and I have different ideas, but neither of us would give in. We were at a stalemate. He chose to conquer by force, and the end naturally ended in failure. All the traitorous gods he formed an alliance with were punished, including their heirs, who were also punished."
Hearing this, Gaya felt a soreness welling up in her heart.
Could it be possible that the man in the cave who had been imprisoned for a long time was also a member of the alliance. Maybe he was bewitched by Darkness's words and made a big mistake for a while.
"What about Darkness..."
"Do you know why he is called Darkness?"
Gaya shook her head in confusion.
"Darkness, which means the doom brought by darkness, is the most appropriate synonym for his life. He was born in the darkness, came with sin, and finally ended up with a repeating result."
Gaya remained silent, not knowing how to respond, because he still felt that many people could not choose their origin. If it was possible, who would not want to be born under the radiant sun, but where there is light, there must be shadows. , it is impossible for everyone to be clean.
"Okay, my curious baby, is there anything else I want to ask?" With a smile on his face, God leaned forward with his tall nose and gently tapped Gaya's forehead with the tip of his nose.
"No more doubts, then I won't disturb your work, see you at dinner~" Gaya jumped down from God's arms and waved at him.
Seeing Gaya leaving happily, the smile on God's face disappeared instantly.
He suddenly remembered what the man had said to himself:
"You're nothing but a complete lie."
His eyes narrowed, and a meaningful sneer suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Yes, it's a lie.
****
"Your Highness, work harder, you can do it!"
Under the honey-colored hair was a small round face with blushing cheeks. The heavy breath lingered in the room surrounded by flowers. The slender young man leaned on the wall with both hands, breathing rapidly.
"I can't do it anymore, it really hurts." Gaya raised her teary face and relaxed her body a little.
Behind him is a four-winged cherub with pure white wings. His long white hair hangs down like a waterfall, and it seems to be trembling slightly with the movements of the angel's hands.
"Breathe in, Your Highness, breathe in!"
With an uncontrollable groan, Gaya finally lost all strength, his legs were limp in a mess, he blushed and panted heavily, and fell to his knees all at once, the soft carpet gave him a cushion, so he couldn't As for the broken knee.
The wise angel behind him picked up the waistband that was scattered on the ground, and shook his head helplessly: "Your Highness, if you don't inhale, how can you tie up the thinnest waist for you?"
"I, I, I can't breathe QAQ" Gaya looked at the corset that made him extremely painful, shaking his head like a rattle.
"It can't be helped. This is the dress that the god asked the angel to make for you. Tomorrow's birthday party, you have to wear this dress and let the god introduce you to the priests. You can't be willful." Zhi Angel said firmly, Like an irresistible order.
Gaya's originally delicate face was wrinkled into a ball at this moment, this corset is too terrifying, it is comparable to torture.
"Why did I hear you guys arguing from so far away?" Hearing his voice before seeing him, just as Gaya was secretly thinking about how to escape the sanction of the girdle, God's voice came from the door, bringing With a slightly cheerful tone.
"God, the little Highness is unwilling to cooperate with wearing a corset, and I am really lost..."
"If you don't want to wear it, don't wear it." The god interrupted him, and walked in gracefully through the door.
As soon as he entered the door, the scene in front of him caused his blood pressure to rise somewhat.
The bare-chested young boy was wearing only a pair of shorts and was kneeling in the corner of the wall. His cheeks and shoulders had turned a faint crimson red from the strenuous exercise just now, and he was leaning against the wall and looking at him with misty eyes. Pitiful.
"You go out." She turned her face slightly, and her tone was stiff.
The cherub was so frightened that he quickly dropped his waist and flapped his wings and flew out of the flower palace.
God pulls the blanket from the bed, gently wraps the shivering little man around the waist, hugs him, puts him on the bed, pulls the quilt over him instantly:
"It's still cold now, please wear your clothes properly in the future."
"I'm not without clothes, I'm just trying on dresses QAQ" Xiao Tiandou quickly explained.
"It's okay, just wear whatever clothes you feel comfortable with." God took his hand, and his long fingers gently wrapped around the thin white hand.
It's a bit cold, I don't know how long the child has been tossing around there naked.
"Tomorrow, isn't it, many angels will come."
God thought for a while and nodded: "Don't be afraid, I will introduce you to everyone then, you just need to accept their blessings with peace of mind."
"Then I will put on the gown well, and I will not embarrass the god." Gaya narrowed her eyes and leaned comfortably on the shoulder of the god.
"You don't need to cater to anyone, Gaya, remember, I am your only backing."
"I remember! Let's spend birthdays together every year from now on." The child was really tired after a day of tossing around, relying on the warmth of God, he only felt his eyes were tired, blinked, and closed them after a while squinted.
But the strange thing is, originally there was only a dream full of warmth, sunshine and flowers, but this time unexpectedly there was a slightly strange figure.
He knelt and sat surrounded by flowers, his black robe was in tatters, and his curly long black hair brushed the ground.He hung his head and remained motionless, amidst the laughter, only his dark side stood out abruptly.
It's like, even if you are in the sun, you can't get a little charity from the sun, and you will always be immersed in endless darkness——
****
Early the next morning, the sun flew in from the window, reflecting the shape of the window coffin. The young boy who got up early seemed not to wake up, and he didn't have much energy, so he stood obediently in the center of the room, and was lifted by the person next to him and turned around. Let him fiddle.
"Aren't you awake?" God's special and extremely magnetic voice scratched Gaya's ear, and the breath sprayed on his face was a little itchy.
Gaya raised her hand and scratched her cheek, tried to put on a smile, and shook her head.
God fastened the last shirt button for him, raised his hand to smooth the lace pleated bow tie on his chest, picked up the ruby necklace from the table, took off the chain, put a pin on it, and gestured on the tie for a while, Find a place in the middle to help him fix it.
The drop of bright red blood in the gem seems to be given life, floating slowly with the light.
The Book of Camille says:
The great and supreme Lord God will only bleed once in his life, that is, when he loves his lover, he will give his fingertip blood to the other party, ten fingers connected to the heart, this drop of blood also implies heart blood, and represents eternal loyalty to his lover.
But to Gaya, this is just a small ornament given to him by God after accidentally pricking his finger.
The gorgeous dress composed of dark blue, pure white and golden yellow wrapped the young man's slender waist, and his straight shoulders just supported the slightly mature dress.
He stood there, tall and straight like a pine, and I don't know if it was because of his birthday, his face looked more delicate, and his honey-colored hair shone in layers. Although he was not a god or an angel, he suddenly The son amazed all the angel guards present.
The guards' eyes were firmly glued to the boy's body, and even the Seraphs, who were used to seeing stunning looks, couldn't help but let out a little exclamation in their hearts.
The world's perception of cuteness is: big eyes, small round face, short nose bridge and small mouth, but more importantly, the temperament exuded by oneself.
This kind of purity, which is protected under the wings of their great gods, is easy to relax their vigilance.
Gaya shook her wings, suddenly felt that she was not well-behaved, and immediately retracted her wings, trying to maintain her temperament, trying to make herself look as mature as possible.
Finally, God put on the gloves for him, straightened the diamonds on the edge of the gloves, bent slightly, and stared at his face:
"Don't be nervous, you are the protagonist today, you can eat whatever you want and say whatever you want, okay?"
Gaya pursed her lips, the seam of her lips was like a wavy line, her thin eyebrows were furrowed, as if she was trying to bear it.
"God..." He said aggrievedly.
"what happened?"
"I'm scared! QAQ" Honey-colored head plunged into Shenshang's arms.
"Don't be afraid, they won't bully you, besides, I'm here." God gently held Gaya's small round face, and gently stroked his soft facial contours with his index finger, "Just give me your heart."
The last time the God Realm held such a grand banquet was more than 500 years ago. He created the God Realm in seven days and gave life to all things. He is loving and radiant, but hates extravagance.The angels thought that they would probably never participate in the banquet held by God again, so they forgot about it.
But when the invitation letter was delivered to their hands, they realized that today was the day when His Highness came of age.
Except for the seraphs who often accompany God in the temple and the teachers and classmates in the school, in most people's minds, His Highness only exists in rumors. After a long time, many people even began to doubt whether His Highness really existed.
It's just that this unexpected invitation made them completely confused.
In just a few hours, where should I go to prepare a gift for His Highness?
They didn't know anything about His Highness's preferences, and they had never seen them. For a while, the angels gathered together in a hurry, talking about what gift to prepare for His Highness.
Although this intention has nothing to do with His Highness, they just want to please God.
The place of the banquet is located in the Bliss Flower Hall next to the temple. Most of the angels only know that there is such a place in the God Realm. It is a luxurious building that the gods asked the angels to spend a year building for His Highness, but no one has ever seen it with their own eyes. Pass.
When I saw it today, I was really surprised.
The temple surrounded by all kinds of flowers, silk and satin, and the joy of the god bird, even if it is located on the first floor of the God Realm, it is a rare and luxurious decoration, even more exaggerated than the temple.
Their great God of Creation stands in the center of the flower hall, stepping on the soft carpet, accompanied by the dancing of the snow-white divine bird, the angels are surging, with endless reverence in their hearts.
A long table of tens of meters spans the center of the hall, and it is filled with delicious delicacies. The chubby little angels are flying around with the plates, working hard like little bees.
But this long table is only prepared for members of the God Realm Federation and some angels in important positions. Most of the angels can only stand aside and watch helplessly.
But what they cared more about was the nervous little head hiding behind the crimson velvet curtain, the bunch of honey-colored curly hairs that exuded soft light.
"It is a great honor for all of you to come from thousands of miles away to attend His Highness Gaya's coming-of-age ceremony." Holding a scepter and wearing a pointed crown on his head, the god said thank you very much. Not the slightest bit of a smile.
His smile is very stylized, just as everyone subconsciously thinks of love and light when they mention God.
There are several seraphs sitting on top of the long table. Angels are also divided into ranks. The number of wings is a symbol of status, and the six wings are born. Most of them are executive members of the God Realm Federation. above.
They looked serious, and their handsome faces were like plaster statues with distinct jawbones. There were mischievous and familiar faces sitting next to some angels. They were the group of brats who coaxed Gaya to sneak into the restricted area.
Before the banquet officially started, the bear children had already picked up the cakes on the table and played a shooting game. The flowers were hit by the cream, and their heads hung down pitifully.
But their parents did not intend to stop them, and even clapped their hands and praised: "Our baby will definitely be a martial arts genius in the future."
God just glanced at it, then continued to turn around, with a warm smile on the corner of his mouth:
"Perhaps everyone is very unfamiliar with him, and indeed, I never introduced him to you before this child officially became an adult, because this child is a bit shy and afraid of meeting strangers, so I have always protected him very well. "God emphatically emphasized the word "protection".
An archangel with six wings twitched the corner of his mouth, with a strange look on his face, like a mockery.
"God, we can't wait to meet the legendary Son of God, why don't you introduce him to us earlier." The archangel raised his hand and touched the bear boy whose face was covered in butter.
"Not the son of God, he was not born by me." The god smiled, raised his hand, and the red curtain behind him slowly receded to both sides.
Gaya was hiding behind the curtain and kept practicing the opening speech, only to see that the curtain opened to both sides as if it had grown feet.
He subconsciously moved aside with the curtain, hiding behind with anxious cheeks flushed.
The curtain was fully opened, and the silly boy was still trying to hide himself. Seeing that he couldn't hide himself, he simply pretended to have amnesia:
Who am I and where am I?
Every part of Gaya's body was thus unreservedly exposed to the public.
Under the hall, the index finger of the man in the tailor-made Western-style uniform slightly trembled, and his green eyes were instantly attracted by the slender and beautiful young man in the middle of the stage.
God's upper eyelashes trembled, and then he committed himself to picking up the box from the ground and putting it away, showing the same gentle smile to Gaya: "No, it's just that you asked me so suddenly, and I didn't realize it for a while."
He secretly sighed, and hugged the boy in his arms: "The reason is very simple. He and I have different ideas, but neither of us would give in. We were at a stalemate.
