Chapter 73

Views:

Garland was lying on the bed, his head still groggy. He squinted his eyes, lay on his stomach softly, his body was limp, like lying in cotton, very comfortable and leisurely, which made him a little not wanting to get up.

He opened his eyes slightly and seemed to see his maid standing by the bed. His consciousness was still a little dazed. He vaguely remembered that he drank a lot of fruit wine as juice yesterday, and then he lost consciousness.

He seemed to have had a dream, but that dream was fragmentary, and he couldn't remember it clearly when he woke up, but it just felt like fragments of memories from previous lives.

Garlan squinted lazily for a while, then raised his hand, rubbed his eyes, and suddenly woke up a little.

He raised his eyes and looked around, and found that this was Heimos' residence. He thought that he was so drunk last night that he fell asleep directly here.

Ah, Tapti must be pissed.

Thinking so, he sat up, stretched out, and the maid who was standing beside him had already stepped forward and gently scrubbed him with the hot water just prepared.

The touch of a warm snow-white towel on his face made Garlan wake up completely. He sat on the bed and glanced around while letting the maid wipe his face.

"Where's Heimos?"

"An lord of Tasda just came to look for Prince Heimos, so he went out to receive him."

The maid answered.

She put down the towel in her hand and began to comb the prince's long blond hair with a malachite comb. For a moment, she squinted happily, the prince's blond hair was as silky as velvet, and it felt really good to the touch.

While she was combing, she suddenly remembered the scene where the soft blonde hair was wrapped around the brown arm with slightly bulging muscles, her heart beat abruptly, and her hands paused.

When she reacted, she quickly restrained her thoughts.

Garlan didn't notice the maid's strangeness, and his attention was drawn to the voice of conversation vaguely coming from outside the door.

I found it early this morning, and I can't wait for a day. The Tasda man really loves Heimos.

The young man couldn't help but sigh.

He came to the door full of hope, but what he got was the rejection of the person he admired and the gem that was returned.

Ah, what a pity, I hope that Tasdar man isn't too sad.

While thinking to himself, Garlan stood up, motioned the maid not to speak, then walked to the door lightly, pricked up his ears through the door, and listened carefully to the conversation outside.

Tsk, even if you are a melon eater, you have to have a beginning and an end. After watching the beginning, naturally you have to watch the ending.

After such self-hypnosis, he listened with peace of mind.

"...to do something like this...it's just offensive..."

Heimos's voice came in intermittently, even if he couldn't see his expression, he could hear his disgust from his cold voice and words.

"...don't want to be disgusting, it's better not to do this kind of thing again..."

Really merciless.

Garlan wows in his heart.

Saying so harshly, the glass heart of the suitor must have been shattered to the ground, so miserable.

He was sighing with emotion when Heimos's slightly raised voice came again.

"Lord Opada."

Garlan, who was eavesdropping with interest, was startled.

Opada

Where did he seem to have heard the name

My mind was blank for a moment, and then the name suddenly appeared, and all the fragments of memory that seemed to be dreamed in a dream came out with the name.

Yes, he did hear the name.

In previous lives, he had never seen a Tasdar. Because at that time, Aaron Landis had already cut off relations with Tastard.

It was only when he was studying past battles with Xie Mu'er that he heard about it from Xie Mu'er's mouth. But just like listening to a story, he forgot about it. Therefore, when the Tasdar mission came to the king's city this time, he didn't think of it at all.

However, in the fragmented dream last night, he seemed to have dreamed of a conversation between himself and Xie Muer.

opada.

It was this name that Xie Muer said at the time.

Because he was too surprised, Garlan forgot for a while that he was eavesdropping behind the door, and slammed out the door.

As soon as he looked up, he saw the brown-haired Tasda man standing in front of Heimos, who was staring at himself in astonishment at the moment.

In a hurry to find out if the person in front of him is the person he thought, Garlan came to the Tasda in a few steps.

"Are you Opada?"

he asks.

Because the man was very tall, a little taller than Heimos, he had to raise his face to meet the man's gaze.

Opada was confronting Heimos with a displeased face, and was about to speak back, but before he had time to speak, he suddenly saw the boy he was in love with running out of the room like a gust of wind and stood up to him. in front of.

The boy shouted his name and looked up at him.

Because of his height, he lowered his head subconsciously and looked at the boy.

As soon as he lowered his head, from his perspective, the scene he saw suddenly made his mind go blank.

The boy's clothes were very loose and loose, as if it could slip off his shoulders at any time.

A few strands of blond hair crossed the slender collarbone and fell into the loose placket, lining the white skin on the chest.

In the bright sunlight, he looked down from above, and through the loose front of his clothes, he glimpsed the faint trace of pink hidden in the golden hair...

A burst of blood rushed forward.

pat.

The young man who had been single for more than 20 years and was now at a young age felt some kind of hot liquid running down his nostrils.

bright red.

It dripped in front of his feet.

Seeing the young man in front of him looking at him in astonishment, Opada raised his hand to cover his hot nose in embarrassment.

At this moment, he was embarrassed and annoyed.

He was thinking about how to show his strength and bravery in front of the person he liked for a long time last night, but now he is bleeding, nose, and blood in front of him.

The young man can't wait to dig a hole and bury himself in it-

No need for him to bury himself.

Suddenly a fist swung from the side and slammed into his side cheek.

He was in a state of embarrassment and defenselessness, and was hit straight, and was suddenly staggered back by the punch.

To make matters worse, the mucous membranes of his nostrils were at their most vulnerable at the moment. After being beaten like this, another stream of blood dripped down and seeped out from the gaps between his fingers covering his nose.

Heimos, who punched him, stopped in front of Garlan, his face was frosty, and his golden red eyes stared at him like a sharp sword.

The almost substantive suffocating energy seeped out from his body, and under the bright morning sun, the temperature around him seemed to drop ten degrees in an instant.

Heimos stared at Opada, a dangerous glimmer of light flashed across his eyes, making his heart palpitate to the extreme.

He was standing next to him just now, and he was about the same height. Looking down at Opada's gaze, he immediately realized what the damn guy saw.

He doesn't have time to think about what kind of guest of Tarstar this guy is now.

It should be said that he did not directly dig out this bastard's eyeball just now because he saw the diplomatic relations between the two countries.

Garland, who was stopped behind by Heimos, was a little stunned. He didn't understand why the Tasda man suddenly began to have a nosebleed. He turned to look at Heimos, and he immediately understood.

Heimos just put on a coat, and most of the tight brown skin on his chest was directly exposed, showing a honey-like luster in the sunlight, looking extremely sexy.

This Tasda man probably got a nosebleed when he saw Heimos.

Garland thought hilariously.

So Heimos punched him.

He was thinking, and when he looked up, he saw that Heimos was looking at him with a gloomy face.

"Go back, change your clothes and come out."

Heimos said so, but his eyes just met him, and suddenly he looked away as quickly as if he was scalded by fire.

"But… "

He hasn't confirmed whether this person is Opada.

"go back!"

Heimos's voice wore a dash of anxiety and became severe.

Damn.

As long as he bows his head, whether he wants to or not, his eyes will unconsciously see the looming pink meaning through the spacious placket...

He looked away and raised the volume again.

"It's rude of you to meet foreign guests in such a disheveled manner!"

"… "

You didn't just put on a coat and just came out, with your chest open, it made others see nosebleeds, what qualifications do you have to say about me

Garland thought unconvinced.

But thinking about it again, Heimos should just feel embarrassed by being bumped into this embarrassing situation, so he wanted to let him leave in a hurry.

never mind.

It's really not good to see other people's jokes like that.

Thinking like this, Garlan didn't refute any more, and obediently went back to his room and asked the maid to help him change his clothes.

It only took twenty minutes to change clothes and tidy up his appearance. When he went out again, the courtyard had returned to silence.

Looking at the traces in the courtyard, Garlan sighed in his heart. Sure enough, the two fought during this period of time, and there are still traces on the ground.

However, it should be finished before he comes out. At this moment, the man named Opada was standing beside the fountain with his head bowed, probably because of the nosebleed that came out before washing.

Immediately afterwards, Garlan saw Heimos, who had already changed into a strong suit, come out of the other room.

"then."

Heimos said coldly, just tossed it directly.

A blue arc flashed across the air.

Opada, who was washing his face with his head down, turned around, raised his hand, and grabbed the sapphire that was thrown over.

The water-soaked brown hair was still sticking to his cheeks. As soon as he got the sapphire, Opada subconsciously looked at Garlan, but then, the words Heimos said not long ago immediately appeared in his mind. .

'Aaron Landis is different from Tastard, and doing such a thing rashly will only be disgusting. '

Will his behavior scare the boy

Opada hesitated a little while holding the gem in his hand.

Moreover, I have already left a very bad impression on the other party... No matter who it is, they will not accept a lover who suddenly has a nosebleed in front of him.

Otherwise, let's take it slow.

At the very least, you have to show your strengths first to make the other person's impression of you a little better.

On the other side, Heimos stared at Opada and put the gem in the bag around his waist, and the dangerous aura in his eyes only slightly restrained.

But the next second, he was in a bad mood again.

Because Garlan went straight to Opada again, as if he was very interested in him, and smiled brightly at Opada.

"You haven't answered me yet, are you Opada?"

"Yes, it is."

Opada, who capsized in the gutter, was still depressed, but when he suddenly saw his sweetheart come up to him, his heart beat like a drum, and he stuttered when he spoke. In particular, the other party even knew his name, which made him even more excited.

"You know my name?"

"Uh… "

Garland hummed.

He can't say it, because I heard in my previous life that your death caused the two countries to fight against each other, so remember your name.

Rolling his eyes, he quickly replied, "I heard what others said."

He said with a smile, "That person told me that you are the strongest and bravest warrior in the younger generation of the Tasda nation, the successor of the Tasdar warriors, and destined to become the next warrior of the Tasdar General. , has a great reputation and has spread to many places."

"That's right."

The tall and stocky Tasdar grinned.

The compliments he heard from his sweetheart made him elated and extremely happy for a while.

The smiling boy bent his eyes and nodded inwardly.

The strongest warrior among the young Tasdar, the successor of General Tasdar...

This man named Opada did not deny the words he said, that is to say, this man is indeed the unlucky person who will die soon in his memory.

I don’t know, now that I know it, it is impossible to watch him die no matter what, triggering the war between Aaron Landis and Tastar again.

Well... he has to figure something out.

The itinerary of the Tasda Mission has already been scheduled, and it is impossible to return in advance. Although it can be delayed for a day or two, there is no guarantee that it will not be attacked after a few days of delay.

So the best way is to let Brother Camos send the army to escort them back.

However, no one knew that something would happen, so sending a large army to follow the mission to Tasda would arouse the alarm of the Tasdar people, and I am afraid they would be rejected directly.

Garland thought.

A way to get the Aaron Landis cavalry to follow the mission with dignity...

Got it!

He could say he wanted to go to Tustards for a visit.

As long as he goes to Tasda with the mission, Brother Camos will definitely send cavalry or even the royal guards to protect him, so it makes sense.

However, suddenly wanting to go to Tasda to play is also very abrupt.

So, he had to find an excuse to spark his thoughts.

The blond prince's eyes rolled again and again, and finally stared at the big, grinning Tastian in front of him.

Isn't that the best excuse

Make friends with Oppas - the two often talk, laugh and chat together - then hear some customs and customs of Tusda from Opada - arouse interest and want to see it - travel with the mission to Tusda - as friends Being inseparable with Opada - and saving his life in the end.

Perfect!

Garlan gave himself a compliment in the bottom of his heart.

Well, first of all, he has to get close to this Opada.

Thinking so, he smiled at Opada again.

"I have always admired the legendary warriors of the Tasda," he said, looking at him expectantly and saying, "Opada, can I invite you to my palace?"

"Okay, okay, I'll go, of course I'll go."

Overjoyed by the sudden invitation, Opada nodded hurriedly, for fear that he would lose this opportunity if he nodded too late.

I don't know who mentioned him to Garlan, but if he knew, he would definitely reward that person well.

He thought happily.

Huymos: "..."

Chest tightness, shortness of breath, irritability, unhappy.

He wants to beat people.

He also wanted to pinch the cheek of the little thing that he finally snatched out of the tiger's mouth but jumped into it himself. It is best to pinch the little guy to the point where he cried and stared at himself with tears in his eyes.
