After Lucian said this, he realized that he might have made a fatal statement.
Perhaps because Wade saw him at his worst and most embarrassing side the day before, he now has a bit of a strong momentum. Seeing the scarlet eyes looking at him, Lucian's back tightened.
"Idiot," he heard Vader say coldly.
Lucian: ?
Never mind, it was normal for Wade to suddenly curse. Lucian told himself not to be angry.
To give birth…
Why are you angry
"Play the piano." Wade gave a simple instruction.
… As the saying goes, one should be grateful to the person who has taken the money. Lucian placed his fingers on the strings, raised his head and smiled at Wade, "Master Wade, what would you like to hear?"
Seeing him asking, she uttered two words from her thin lips: "Whatever."
This is what Vader said casually.
Wade closed his eyes and rubbed his temples with his pale, slender fingers. He seemed to be in a bad mood today, and he knew what Percy and the others had just reported to him. The blue veins on the back of his hand, which had always been healthy, were bulging, with a sickly and dangerous cold feeling.
Finally, his fingers stopped.
"What are you playing?" Wade said coldly.
Lucian closed his eyes and played the harp, saying sweetly, "This is a folk song I've heard before."
Vader: …
Lucian: “It’s called ‘Good Luck Comes’.”
Vader: …
"Play your usual hymn to God."
"It's been so long, I forgot the music score... uh... um!"
Wade grabbed the long, thin tail in his hand and used his thumb to rub the heart at the end of the tail. Lucian fell softly on the chair, his cheeks flushed, and even his legs were shaking.
"Do you remember it now?"
“Let go, let go…” Lucian cried, “I remember, I remember…”
The tail was finally released.
...Weide is a man of great virtue. Lucian's eyes were red with tears, and he gnashed his teeth in his heart.
Seeing that Lucian finally played the piano obediently, Wade closed his eyes again to the soothing music.
Lucian was playing the strings of his guitar out of boredom, with dappled sunlight falling on him. He was thinking about Wade's bad taste and trying again and again to stop his tail from wagging.
… He specifically asked him to play the piano for him, but he himself slept on the throne. Wade's hobby was really weird.
There was a knock on the door. But Wade never opened his eyes. Finally, Lucian stopped playing the piano.
"Um?"
Then he heard Vader's voice.
Lucian: ...This shows that his senses are quite sensitive.
"Someone is looking for you." Lucian said stiffly.
Wade moved his fingers, and the door was opened by wind magic. Standing outside the door was the anxious butler Spencer.
"Go on." Vader said to Lucian.
Lucian: ...Okay, respected Master Weibapi who allows slaves to be lazy.
He continued to play the piano.
Wade did not let the butler in, but listened to the butler's report on the throne. He said, "Let him go to the Moon Goddess Hall."
After the butler left, Wade bowed his head and said to Lucian, "You go with me too."
Lucian: ... Can you just listen to his report here? It's troublesome for you to come all the way here.
The advantage of the pendant is that it can be hung on a person. But although Lucian needs to follow Wade, he can't get the treatment of a pendant, so he can only do it himself. Many guards along the way recognized his iconic clothes, including Norris, the cold and handsome outstanding guard who was knocked down by him on the day of escape. The latter immediately lowered his eyes and breathed after being extremely surprised.
Now that he has this tail (the horn is hidden in his hair crown), no one can mistake his race.
Lucian followed Vader into the Moon Goddess Hall. Lucian looked at the clean and bright hall and the throne without a harp beside it, and for a moment he didn't know what Vader wanted him to do.
Until Vader said: "Stand beside your throne, waiting for your need."
…Lucian understood that Vader needed an atmosphere ornament.
Lucian stood beside Vader, his mind was empty, and he pulled the system out of silent mode again. The person who came in was Percy, who told Vader that there had been a civil war between the light elves and the dark elves recently, and suggested that Vader should go to the elves at this time... Although he restrained himself well, Lucian still felt that Percy always couldn't help but glance at him.
Lucian chatted and complained with the system until the end of their conversation. After the conversation, Wade took him to the restaurant.
"Pour the wine," said Vader.
Lucian glanced at the bottle of red wine: ... What a pity it's champagne.
If it was a bottle of champagne, he would shake it and pretend to carefully spray the entire contents onto Wade.
However, he still pretended to be obedient and poured the glass of red wine for Wade.
Lucian served Wade with all his heart and soul, and repeatedly complained about Wade's bad habits in his heart - the red wine only flowed when poured, and he had to let it boil; he had to pick out the broccoli one by one before eating the soup; he had to arrange the caviar and move the radish flowers to a nice position...
The appetizer alone was horrible. Lucian sat next to Wade, staring at the plate of caviar as if it were his class enemy.
Then he heard Vader's voice.
"Want to eat?"
Lucian answered reflexively: "I hate caviar."
"Oh, what a pity." He heard Wade's understated voice, "You really liked to eat it when you were young."
Lucian: …
Then came the fried lamb chops. The meat was tender and golden brown, and the aroma of fat could be smelled from a distance. Wade threw the knife to him: "Cut."
The silver blade fell into Lucian's hand. Lucian snorted coldly, turned his fingers, and the knife spun out a butterfly-like arc of light.
"Give me the knife... Are you afraid that I will attack you?" Lucian stared at Wade with his wine-red eyes and smiled.
Wade looked at Lucian and suddenly smiled grimly.
"You know how to do it, Lucian." Wade said calmly, "You are a smart man, and smart people don't do useless things without preparation."
Lucian: …
This awful feeling of being seen through.
He knew that his skin was white, so it was more obvious when it turned pink due to emotional fluctuations. Vader snapped his fingers and pushed the plate towards him with magic.
"cut."
Lucian: … Just cut it.
Lucian had a ball of magic flame hidden in his palm, and planned to direct it onto the knife to char the piece of meat.
… He was feeling very happy now, so he had to find some happiness for Wade as well.
He successfully completed this plot without any hindrance. He respectfully brought the lamb chops back to Wade, who looked at the distorted steak.
"I've never served anyone before." Lucian said with a smile, "Please bear with me."
Wade glanced at him and said nothing. Lucian then sat back in his chair with a clear conscience.
—I should have cut the mutton into smaller pieces, he thought with some regret.
Seeing that Wade started to eat the lamb chops with a fork, Lucian seriously suspected that he had no sense of taste. The time waiting for Wade to chew was very long, and Lucian was bored, so he had to chat with the system.
Lucian: "What do you think Vader wants to do?"
System: "Well, maybe it's to torture you."
Lucian: "He's so boring and has no sense of taste."
System: "You should be more patient. You have treated him like this before."
Lucian: “What time…”
System: "The part where you forcibly took the child back to Cecil Manor and tortured him."
Lucian: …
He seemed to vaguely remember that this was the case.
When he was nine years old, he demolished Wade's shabby house and took Wade home as a "slave". The first thing he did was to ask the guards to wash him, then put on ruffled pajamas and sit in his room waiting for him to come.
"You see, this place is better than the slums, isn't it?" Lucian said sweetly, "Why are you angry? This will be your home in the future."
… Then he asked someone to bring a cotton mat and let Wade, who pounced on him and bit him, sleep on the mat.
From that day on, he began to bully the young male protagonist. Every day, he made the male protagonist help him wash, let the male protagonist walk with him in the garden, let the male protagonist help him dress and take off his socks, and even brought the slave Vader with him to eat and let him serve him food.
When he was in a good mood, he would play with Vader, for example, scoop up a spoonful of caviar with a spoon, hand it to Vader's mouth, and obediently ask the glaring "slave" boy to eat it.
'I made you angry this morning,' he said softly, 'do you want some caviar?'
Then, when Wade finally turned around and looked at him, he put the spoon into his mouth and said, "Here you go, you like it."
Of course, for the sake of strategy, after the meal he specifically used the excuse of "hating lamb chops" to order someone to give the perfectly fried lamb chops to Wade to "torture" him after he ate it - given Wade's status as a leader, he was not qualified to eat such good food.
Wait, borscht, lamb chops, caviar, tuna salad.
… He seemed to remember that he had the same set meal that day.
Lucian blinked and looked at the food on the table again. After confirming that this was indeed a replica of that day...
Lucian: !! Vader is a man who never forgets to take revenge.
Wade ate up the plate of lamb chops that looked delicious no matter how you looked at it, and then it was time for dessert - as for the plate of cake, Wade finally didn't tell Lucian what to do. Perhaps he finally found a reason to be picky and exploit Lucian's labor like a beacon.
After the meal, Wade took out a handkerchief. Lucian, despite his intention to smear grease all over his face, said softly, "Do you need my help?"
Wade glanced at him and wiped his lips gracefully.
Lucian: ...Tsk.
The smile on Lucian's face faded a little. That person saw everything.
Lucian was just playing with his fingers out of boredom when he heard Wade's voice: "Want to go meet him?"
"What? Is it Bright?" Lucian asked subconsciously.
… and then shrank back as if trying to survive.
"It's Bright, it's Calvin." Wade threw the handkerchief aside gracefully, staring at Lucian's face with his scarlet eyes, as if trying to find out his reaction.
Lucian blinked.
"It's him." Lucian said, "Did you find out what he did?"
He tilted his head, his attitude seemed to be a matter of course.
Wade laughed softly, and he reached out and stroked Lucian's chin with his thumb. Lucian dodged for a moment, wondering if Wade hadn't washed his hands after dinner.
Unfortunately, he was held down.
However, there was no smell of food on Wade's hands, only an extremely cold chill that seemed to have penetrated into the bone marrow.
"Calvin has always been an ambitious man, and he doesn't care about anything. Whether it's the human palace or the highest authority in the mortal world, they are all things he needs to care about." Wade said slowly, "Oh, you can't tolerate those insects around you..."
Lucian thought of Weide who burned someone's eyeballs in the prison: ... You don't seem to be tolerant at all.
"Unfortunately, he is really a fool. He is so foolish that he has evil thoughts and thinks he can be superior to me and replace me." Wade continued, "Therefore, I intend to let him see the end of this respect."
Lucian: ...Oh, I see. Anyway, it’s because of his “respect” for you, and not because of other reasons.
"Do you want to go see him?"
“I really want to.” Lucian answered quickly.
"Why?"
The feeling of oppression deepened. Lucian thought for a moment and said sincerely, "I haven't eaten yet. I'm afraid I'll vomit."
Vader: …
“Besides, I’m also afraid of wasting your blood, Master Wade.” Lucian blinked and said softly.
He said, smiling slightly, and touched his soft and slender belly with his slender fingers.
