"Ugh..." The evil star was lying on the ground bored. The golden armor all over his body made him feel uncomfortable lying down, but the golden armor was actually part of his body and could not be taken off.
He was starved for several days. As a dragon, although he could go without eating for a long time, he had recently become accustomed to the human life of Arthur's three meals a day, and the evil star missed the taste of eating.
.
How long will the Roman Emperor keep him here? Why hasn't Arthur come to rescue him yet? If he stays here for several more days, the evil star will die of boredom...
While he was alone with his thoughts, someone's footsteps approached gently.
"who---"
"Hush!" Justinian made a "lower voice" gesture, "Your Excellency Evil Star, I came to see you at the request of my friend Knight X."
He put a basket of food into the cell, including bread, sausages and some fruits. The evil star came closer and smelled it, and felt that there was no problem, so he picked it up and started eating.
"Isn't Mr. Evil Star a red dragon? Why did you suddenly turn into a shining golden thing?" Justinian sat on the ground and chatted with Evil Star, "And you can also use the magic of turning into a human being?"
"There are many reasons." The evil star didn't want to explain, because once explained, it would inevitably bring back his past pain.
"Okay." When Justinian saw this, he couldn't ask any more questions, "Please bear with Mr. Evil Star for a while longer, and I will find a way for you to escape from here. Now Rome is at war with the Hungarians, and the war is really going on.
It was so intense that everyone was on edge."
"...Really? That's why you are so anxious to get my power?" Evil Star said absently, while still eating. Roman sausage has a strong flavor, and Evil Star likes this rich meat mixed with pepper.
taste.
"But you also need to know that dragons are creatures with high self-esteem. Once they form a contract with someone, they will not make another contract with anyone else until that person dies. Your emperor will not do it even if he kills me.
If you wish, it is just a waste of time."
"I'm afraid uncle doesn't think so." Justinian's face darkened, "He would rather keep you locked up than let you go ------"
When the evil star thought of this, he felt sick: "Do you want to use me as his toy? Selfish human being!"
"It's not like that ---" Justinian's face darkened again, "Your Excellency, with your current transformation, you always look a bit like...like your uncle's son who died in infancy, Alexander."
After the evil star swept away the last fruit, he ate the apple with the core, not worrying at all that it would ruin his stomach. "Stop talking nonsense, this is just a magic trick, how can it be similar to others?"
.Even if it is similar, it is definitely a coincidence."
"Really..." Justinian thought, "If cousin Alexander is still alive, he probably looks about your age now... sixteen or seventeen years old. This is also a coincidence.
.....Bar."
The evil star was speechless for a while, threw the basket out, and lay down on the haystack. "That's all you have to say? Leave me alone. If you have a plan for me to escape, please inform me again."
"Understood. Good luck to you, my friend." Justinian bowed and left.
The evil star closed his eyes and thought.
This is no coincidence. This magic of turning into a human does indeed require some kind of [medium].
That is...the humans that Evil Star once ate. Those [human beings] who died and merged with him in Evil Star's body. Without these humans as templates, his transformation magic would not be completed.
The appearance of this young man also felt familiar to the evil star himself when he saw it. He had seen this young man somewhere before, but he could not remember it.
Countless human beings who overestimated their capabilities once broke into the evil star's dragon lair, hoping to gain glory by killing the dragon. In order to protect himself, it is understandable that the evil star killed or even ate these adventurers who were looking for death. He ate so many
There are so many people, how is it possible to remember them all?
But what happened to that boy------? Why did a little boy run into the dragon's lair and be eaten by the evil star?
Why did the evil star eat this young man without any memory of it?
Why is there no impression, but it feels so familiar?
These many puzzles made the evil star feel very irritated. He tried to close his eyes and doze off.
at the same time,
"I've already said, I don't need this kind of thing------"
"You need it." Ignoring Arthur's objections, Yaglovi continued to add more aromatherapy essential oil to the bathtub. The scent of lavender became stronger and stronger, becoming pungent, and Arthur felt uncomfortable.
"You need more medicated oil. It can help you relieve fatigue and resist colds. Tomorrow is a big day, and you have to go to the execution ground in the best condition."
"Well, what? Execution ground?" Arthur felt that something was wrong with Yagloi's words and wanted to get up and struggle, but it was already too late.
The medicine in the bathtub began to invade his body, and he felt sore and numb all over.
"Hehehehehehehe." Yagloi sneered, grabbed Arthur's head with one hand, and immersed Arthur completely in the bathtub.
"Woooooooooo..." Arthur had no room for resistance at all. Not to mention the sick and drugged him now, even the healthy him at ordinary times, a thin young man, would never be able to rely on his strength.
Use your own muscle strength to fight against the adult in front of you.
This guy is not Yagloi! He was switched! When did it start? Was it during the last shift change with Pasiva?!
"Woo! Ha, ha, ha------" Arthur, who was almost suffocating, was pulled out of the water. He gasped with all his strength, "Don't-----wu------" He said again
Being forced into the water.
It's so painful. I can't breathe. My whole body is soaked and eroded by the drugs, and it's sore and soft like mud. If this continues------
"Hahahahaha," after having enough fun, the fake Yagloi pulled Arthur out of the water, threw him aside, and injected drugs into Arthur.
"Now, tell me, where is the King's Sword?"
"In..." Arthur, who was injected with the drug and felt dizzy, used his last bit of willpower to resist: "No... I know!"
"Still talking? One more shot." The man twisted the young man's waist tightly, twisted the young man's arm joints, inflicted maximum pain on him without hurting him, and at the same time injected another dose of medicine.
.
As a larger dose entered the boy's body, Arthur felt dizzy, his consciousness began to collapse, and he could no longer control himself.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" His hand joints were removed by the opponent. The pain caused his last line of defense to collapse.
"In, in my sister...Vivian's...research institute...here...three hundred kilometers to the south, next to the Walloon Mountains...
"In a lake..." The boy couldn't control his mouth, he was crying as he spoke.
"Well done, boy." The fake Yagloi smiled evilly, "This is your reward."
He exerted force and dislocated Arthur's other hand.
"Ahhhhhhhh!" Arthur shouted in pain.
"What's going on!!" Palinloer had already opened the bathroom door and rushed in.
"Hey hey hey, it's too late!" The fake Seglade picked up the fainted Arthur and unlocked his own disguise magic.
The face of a thin, wretched man appeared in front of Palinlor. The greasy black hair and the pale, paper-like face looked disgusting.
"Douglas!" Palinloer drew out his sword and slashed it with one strike!
"Haha, I'm so impatient!" Douglas picked up Arthur as a human shield, forcing Palinloar to stop waving the sword in his hand.
"I'll take this kid away and see you at the execution ground tomorrow." Douglas threw a smoke bomb and the whole person disappeared without a trace.
"Damn it!!" Palinloer was so angry that he punched the bathroom wall, making a huge hole in it.
"What?! Arthur has been caught?!" Pasiva was still resting. When he heard this, he almost jumped up, "Ya, what is that idiot Yagloi doing?!"
"Ahaha..." Yagloi poked his head in from outside the door. His room was next to his younger brother's room. When he walked in awkwardly, his head was bleeding and he was wearing only a pair of underpants.
It seemed that someone had knocked him out from behind, then he took off his clothes and pretended to be him, "I'm sorry, I was attacked by surprise."
"That is to say, when I switched shifts with you before, that person was already someone else's impersonation?!" Pasiva couldn't help but blame himself deeply. He couldn't even recognize that his brother had been impersonated, and even
Foolishly, let the impostor get close to Arthur.
(I clearly said that I must protect Arthur. Can’t I do it like this?!)
