The Cecil family's villa is located in the suburbs, with beautiful scenery. Not far away is the back mountain where you can go hunting, fishing, and collecting folk songs, as well as a quiet and beautiful village. Lucian remembered that he had fallen ill when he was two years old in this world, and he rested here for a year or two. His adoptive uncle Dalton Cecil also liked the scenery here and would come here to stay for two months every year...
Oh, Lucian almost forgot that when he was recuperating here, Wade also forced him to come here and torment him every day. If he remembered correctly, this period of time was the transformation period he set for "from a spoiled and annoying young master to a white moonlight".
Lucian: ...?! .jpg
Fortunately, Wade seemed to be just stopping here for a while and had no intention of causing trouble for him.
After entering his room in the small building where he lived at the time, Lucian groped for the closet in the room based on his memory (and the system's prompts). The world was blurry in his eyes, and it took him a long time to find the handle of the closet.
Then he smelled a burning smell behind him, and heard a muffled groan from Wade.
“What’s that smell…?” Lucian turned around, a little stunned.
"Treat the wound." Wade said briefly.
“… You scorched the wound?!”
"This will stop the bleeding faster."
'He really doesn't treat his own body as a body...' The system complained in Lucian's mind, but Lucian looked a little bad. After a long time, he said: "Don't roast in my room, you make the whole room smell bad."
"It's ready now," said Wade.
Lucian felt like there was a strange bubble in his heart, which he couldn't press down, squeeze, or break, but he couldn't ignore either. Every time this happened, he wanted to lose his temper. He had always had a bad temper.
But this time he remained silent. It was not until he touched a few pieces of clothing and took them out that Lucian realized that these were all his clothes from his youth.
It's a bit tight for his current body shape.
Wade's footsteps left the room. Lucian threw his clothes on the bed and sat on the floor, worrying. After a while, Wade's footsteps came back.
Several pieces of clothing were stuffed into Lucian's hands. Lucian was a little confused and asked, "Whose clothes are these?"
"It's not Dalton's, it's mine." Wade's voice suddenly became hard.
"Why are there your adult clothes here..."
"Last year, I occasionally came here to stay for a while," Wade said.
Lucian was still silent, and Wade said again: "—It's quiet here, don't think too much."
"I think you need to take a shower." Lucian said.
Vader: …
…
Lucian was finally led to the bathroom by Wade. At the bathroom door, Lucian asked Wade: "Did you change into new clothes? Your injury..."
"Okay." Wade said.
Wade is indeed a monster, even the blood hole in his abdomen can be healed so quickly. Lucian asked: "Do you have another servant who can take me to the bathroom?"
"Everyone who comes here is a warrior or a sorcerer." Vader dashed his hopes.
'Shit, he's not going to help you...'
"What are you thinking about?" Lucian replied coldly to the system's comment, "At most, he would just throw you into a bathtub full of water, and come in after a while to fish you out - he's just extremely nearsighted, not without hands."
His silence (talking to the system in his mind) made Wade raise an eyebrow. Wade asked with interest: "Why, do you need someone to help you bathe?"
"..." Lucian said, "I can do it myself."
In the end, he was "carried" into the bathtub by Wade.
…
After taking a shower, Lucian put on his clothes, a shirt that was so wide that it almost covered his thighs, and the collarbone was visible at the neckline. Lucian didn't expect that Wade was so much bigger than him, no wonder he could always hold him in his arms easily.
Maybe it was because he looked skinny despite his height.
After throwing clothes, Wade left. Lucian guessed that he was looking for a place to heal his wounds. But he also needed sleep.
Lucian then fell asleep carefree on the bed that belonged to his youth. Before going to sleep, he said to the system: "Please keep an eye on the outside for me."
"Okay!" the system said, "Speaking of number five..."
The system hesitated, so Lucian said: "If you don't want to say it now, don't say it later."
"... I found that there seems to be an extra mark in your mind." The system said, "It's very strange, but I don't have the authority to change it."
Lucian: "??? Is it something left from the heart?"
"Probably not, and it doesn't seem to do any harm." said the system.
Lucian was so sleepy. He was mentally exhausted and hungry, so he could only fall asleep before these feelings came rushing in to relieve them. He yawned and said, "Then you decide."
Having said this, he fell into sleep.
…
Lucian opened his eyes in a strange place.
At that moment he was pleasantly surprised to find that his vision had returned, but even more quickly, he realized that he was not in the bed where he had fallen asleep.
Could anyone take him away from the place that Vader was guarding so strictly
"Is anyone there?" he whispered.
He was in a palace-like building on a high mountain. The mountain was very quiet, without any human voices, and he soon realized that he was not in reality, but in a place similar to a fantasy.
At the same time, there was a temporary absence of the system. His mind seemed to be pulled into somewhere while he was sleeping.
The sky was filled with fog. When he came out of the palace, he saw his own shadow in the glass on the wall - that was his appearance as the Son of God. White holy clothes with gold edges, beautiful appearance, the only difference was that his hair was still silver-white.
What kind of fantasy is so smart that it also comes with one-click dressing
He walked aimlessly on the mountain, and a subtle premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger. This stone mountain seemed to have no end, and there was only vast fog at the end. He started from the back of the palace and saw large patches of wine-red flowers with emerald green leaves in a jungle.
It was a kind of rose that had never appeared in reality. It looked like a variation of a rose, but was far more beautiful and delicate. It looked arrogant and complacent.
Lucian: Pill, why does this flower feel so anthropomorphic
Lucian tried to touch the flowers with his hands, but some of them hid from him by covering their petals, and some seemed to want to bite him. He quickly retracted his fingers, and the flowers that wanted to bite him looked like they were about to cry and felt wronged.
… They clearly wanted to bite people. Lucian was a little speechless.
He withdrew his hand. In this deep jungle, these flowers looked the most beautiful and soft. He followed them and walked deeper into the jungle under the guidance of a faint spiritual guide. During the exploration, he felt several faint spiritual guides, and this one was the most inspiring to him.
Those flowers always accompany both sides of the road.
When he parted the vines and the sea of flowers, he took a breath and saw what he was looking for.
It was a vast... cold lake!
There were all kinds of stones beside the cold lake. It was so cold that he could feel the chill even on the shore. But what really shocked him was the scene facing the cold lake - it was a mountain in the distance, with a huge, almost withered world tree on the mountain. Countless poisonous snakes were gnawing at its roots.
A human body was tied to the World Tree. It was nailed to the tree trunk in a posture of suffering, with its head drooping. Lucian couldn't see its appearance from a distance.
There was a figure in the cold lake with his back to him. His long black hair was floating messily on the lake, and he was looking at the world tree in the distance with an expressionless face. The cold lake was so cold, but the scarlet light in his eyes was blazing, as if it was about to burn.
"… "
At that moment, Lucian was unable to make a sound. What he didn't expect was that when he was about to step back, his wrists were tied!
Entangled and tied by a hanging vine!
The people in the cold lake also stood up from the water at this time.
That man is... Vader!
His black hair had grown much longer, and his pale, slender body was covered with dark spells, on which there was a faint golden-red light flowing. Therefore, Lucian did not recognize him at first sight.
But he didn't look like Vader. Those scarlet eyes looked at him, but there was no emotion in them. It was like he was just a stranger who had intruded here without any reason.
Those were a pair of eyes that showed no human nature, looking down from above, like a demon with only instincts.
The wine-red flowers rustled and swayed, as if in fear. Lucian turned his head and tried to run away, but the vines were so strong that they had already grabbed his wrists red. It was not until the man approached that Lucian felt the burning heat on his body.
It turned out that the fog rising from the ice lake was not cold air, but fog produced by the evaporation of this person's body!
“…Haaaaa!”
Lucian tried to resist, but another vine entangled his other hand. The monster looked at his struggle grimly, suddenly grabbed his neck, and dragged him to the shore!
Lucian shivered when he was pressed against the cold stone. On the one hand, it was because the stone was extremely cold, and on the other hand, it was because the body of the "monster" Vader, who had Vader's face and body, was too hot. The man's movements were too rough, so Lucian forced out a voice through his teeth: "Let go..."
He didn't even understand the situation he was in. The man had thrown him onto the rock too hard, and his head had hit the wall, and he was still in pain and dizzy.
"… ah!"
The man pressed on him, leaned over and bit his throat!
The action was like a hunter hunting his prey, with a sense of abuse. Lucian's silver hair and his black hair were tangled together because of the struggle. The man was too hot and the stone was too cold. Lucian wanted to escape, but the man grabbed his waist.
He desperately used his thigh to hit the other person's waist, but the man held his knees, pulled them to the side and squeezed them hard -
He heard the man make a sound, as if warning him not to move.
“… !!”
Lucian sat up from the bed with cold sweat on his forehead.
It was not until then that he heard the voice of the system—it turned out that the system had been calling him anxiously.
"Number Five, what's wrong with you? You just..."
"Shut up." Lucian said with cold sweat.
The feeling of ice and heat seemed to still linger on his body. He covered his throat and woke up from the horrifying dream. But at that moment...
He felt a bulge on his throat caused by teeth marks...
Bruise/mark.
