The sky is as dark and deep as ink, the stars are shining pale and feeble as silver spots, the hot air waves gradually dissipate, and the cicadas hidden under the branches send out bursts of low humming.
The chirping sounds one after another passed through the darkness under the starlight, bypassed the palace, and finally hovered around the black market, lingering for a long time.
There is a kind of person who is not drunk or carefree. Although he is a noble, he is approachable. They can do anything for the person they like. They will go all the way regardless of the south, east or west, and they will love the other person to heaven.
Rikka, who had just returned to the city at this time, planned to go home directly, but she met the person she least wanted to see. It was not that she had any grudges with this person, but that the other person had been bothering her like a fly since last week. From the pretense of being sophisticated at the beginning, to asking for help a few days ago, to now being shameless and shameless. She is very surprised that there really are dog lickers in this world.
But Rikka did not kill the other party. First, although he was annoying, the sincerity in his eyes was real. Second, this person had never stepped out of the city gate, otherwise he would have turned into a corpse.
"Beautiful lady, we are really destined. I didn't expect to meet again today." The aristocratic boy posed in a pose that he thought was handsome.
"It's fate! If you are sick, go get it treated as soon as possible. We can't do it!" Rikka replied with a dark face and some boredom.
However, the other party didn't seem to care. Perhaps in his heart, it was the best thing for Rikka to say a few words to him.
Watching Rikka's figure disappear into the black market, he stopped the servant's suggestion to follow her. In his opinion, pursuing your lover can only rely on your own ability. If you do it by force based on your status as a noble, then what's the point of getting it. However, Rikka felt that this man was like a dog, even worse than a dog. There were only herself and Boom in her life. This was a destined fate and a blood agreement.
As a good housekeeper, she knew very well that the value of those "little gifts" was extremely expensive. Therefore, based on the principle of taking nothing for nothing, Rikka never refused the other party's "good intentions".
However, before walking into the courtyard gate, Rikka still stuffed those things into the dimensional space. She didn't want Boom to know about this, and she was even more worried about the other party's misunderstanding.
There was still laughter and laughter in the Wonder House, Rikka was eating rice, and Boom was drinking broth. At this time, she was no longer as cold as before, like the most caring little cotton-padded jacket, sometimes adding wine to each other, sometimes cutting bread. p>
Moths fly under the guidance of sunlight and moonlight, but when they approach a flame, they will be disturbed and bump into it. People call this phenomenon "moths flying into the flame".
In Rikka's eyes, that boy was a loser. Although he was a noble, he chose to escape, escape from his own incompetence, and escape from his own ignorance.
This is like the most failed clown, living in what he thinks is happiness every day, but others already hate him so much that they want to slap him in the mouth.
"Master, let's go back first, otherwise Madam will be worried." The servant thought for a while and then said.
"Okay, maybe I was careless today. This dress is really unsightly." The young man smiled bitterly, his blond hair reflecting the starlight.
The young man is indeed a noble, but few people know that he comes from the Principality of Xisai. As a hostage sent to Aogu City, although he lives a life of food and clothing, he is like a walking zombie.
Queen Isabella is his cousin, so the boy's home is naturally in the palace. But he is smart and has only one task, which is to keep a pill the size of a rice grain.
As an out-and-out Sicilian, the young man is inherently cunning. He does not believe in this cousin he has never met, let alone the benefits promised by the other party.
What he believes in is the power of King Ogu, the domineering power of the knight Anthony blessed by God a few days ago, his own judgment, and his reverence for life.
Pursuing Rikka is part of the plan, but Rikka can be any poor person. Although he is not a strong man, it is not difficult to guess that there are countless people hidden around him, and countless pairs of peeping eyes.
Turning around and walking towards the palace, Rikka was resolutely given up. What he needed was not love, but another shadow that could hide himself.
Walking on the bluestone pavement, his smile showed no shame or sadness, only an uncontrollable innocence.
Not long after, a smile appeared on his face again, and standing opposite was the daughter of a certain bakery owner. He nodded and presented the gift he had originally prepared for Rikka with both hands.
Seeing this, the passersby around them whistled one after another. Although the bakery owner was extremely reluctant, he also saw the lion pattern embroidered on the cuffs.
Amid the blessings of the crowd, the two looked like princes and princesses walking out of fairy tales. The boy looked majestic, while the girl blushed.
Royal city, flower bed, well; stone house, candlelight, fine wine.
After a few glasses of wine, the girl collapsed to the ground in pain, her eyes turned white, and she vomited blood. The boy watched quietly all the time, as if he was watching a performance.
A moment later, the girl stood up straight like a ghost, her eyes turned gray. But the man just smiled when he saw this, as if he already knew the result.
"From today on, you are my female companion, remember." The boy leaned into the other person's ear and said slowly.
The night light dyed the room silver, and the thing given by the queen was stuffed into the girl's body. He didn't want to know what it was, let alone what its purpose was.
As for what was mixed into the wine, it was a secret medicine that even a troll witch doctor couldn't prepare. Its effect was very simple, but the person who took it was frustrated for half a year and let it go.
Half a year was enough for him to leave Augu City safely. During this period, the other party was just his own shadow, a clone that only obeyed his orders.
He came here more than two months ago without bringing his own storage bag, any clothes, or even a servant.
He only brought one thing with him, and that was his wisdom. He believed that this world was not only about magic and fighting spirit, but also believed that wisdom was the key to controlling the situation.
He admired Grand Duke Xisai and his sharp eyes. He also admired King Ogu and admired him for being able to stand firm for so many years without even fearing the rebellion of other principalities.
He rubbed the little finger of his right hand with his left hand, which was his habit when thinking about problems. Looking at the brightly lit Aogu City outside the window, three words slowly emerged in his mind, Midas.
He only knew that this was a person's name, and that this person was the target of his visit to the royal city. However, in the vast sea of people, where should he start to search?
Shaking his head, he turned around and lay back on the bed. The quilt was pulled up like a curtain call, and he ended today's performance. But the girl remained standing still, like a sculpture.
"In my opinion, it's better to just kill him, why bother?" Anthony, the Blessed Knight, looked livid, and his injuries from the duel had obviously not recovered yet.
"No! After all, he came here with integrity. If he really dies in our hands, wouldn't he give the Principality of Cisse an excuse to start a war in vain?" King Fernando of Ogu replied irritably.
"Send someone to monitor the queen, are you all pig-minded?" Great Mage Yuri covered his face, his eyes full of contempt.
