"So, now I have established a spiritual connection with Wade." Lucian said with a gloomy face, "I just entered his dream."
The system said in a trembling voice: "No, no, no, that's right."
"Why are you stuttering? I haven't scolded you yet." Lucian said.
system:…
"In short, this is probably the sequelae of him driving away the fallen angel's consciousness for you." The system whispered, "At that time, I was busy blocking the system from noticing and seeing your memory. This connection mark should also be left by him unintentionally. You can enter his consciousness world through it - without him noticing."
Lucian: "Then it sounds like I'm taking advantage?"
System: "Oh... But you can indeed find what you need from the world of consciousness of , if you avoid all the in it and find in time."
"What?"
"Human consciousness is like a museum. It contains everything that is meaningful to you, secrets, and everything you have ever seen. It can hold far more than you can imagine. For example, the temple." The system said, "Maybe you can find a safe in it, which contains your most unknown secrets, or a magic blueprint to open the shackles..."
"The latter one sounds useful. What does the former one open? A selfie of myself making a V sign?" Lucian scratched his forehead listlessly. "How does my neck look?"
System: "A large bruise."
Lucian: “What does it look like?”
System: "Anyone will notice that you have been bitten."
The only good news is that Wade will not find out that he has been to 's spiritual world. should be sleeping now, and will not have any vague memories after waking up.
Of course, Lucian would not let Vader find out that he had been bitten by someone else (actually Vader, but he would not know) at some point. The fact that he could enter Vader's spiritual world was undoubtedly a trump card that he could use in the game between the two. He just woke up, so he fumbled to button his shirt to the highest position, and then searched through the boxes and cabinets, trying to find a bow tie to button it so as not to appear too deliberate.
"I remember it was here... Hey, the furnishings here haven't been moved at all."
The system seemed to be searching, and suddenly asked: "By the way, Lucian, do you still want to run away now?"
"What?" Lucian stopped.
"I feel like your relationship with Wade is a little unclear right now." The system said carefully, "Will you and ..."
Lucian rolled his eyes at it.
"Have you been contaminated and poisoned by the Fallen Angel?" He denied. "Have you forgotten who I am?"
System: "… You are a heartless No. 5 who completes tasks by collecting hatred and enjoys the wailing of victims."
"So who are you?" Lucian ignored him and continued to look through the drawers. "I am now living under someone else's roof and being bullied and enslaved by him every day. I will be thankful if his hatred value breaks 100 and he sends me back to the control center soon. Now I am either working or covered in blood every day because of him. I am so wronged."
system:…
Lucian: "Tsk, come to think of it, you are half to blame for this."
System: "I was wrong, 嘤嘤."
Lucian said, his finger finally touched the top grid. He took out the top silk and gemstone one and used it to fix the collar.
The bite mark was finally hidden under the collar.
…
The next morning, Lucian had dinner downstairs. Since he was now extremely nearsighted, he naturally didn't have to wait on Wade. But when he thought about his experience in Wade's spiritual world last night, he felt a little scared.
If Wade hadn't had any intentions of that nature towards me in the past few months, I would have thought that the monster-like creature in the spiritual world was about to get on top of me on the shore. When he pressed my knees and spread my thighs apart, Lucian thought at that moment that he was about to enter the episode below the neck.
—Luckily he woke up.
And why does Vader's spirit bite people at will
Wade came down quite late. There was still a bit of blood on his body, and when he approached, Lucian was subconsciously afraid.
Lucian despised his own fear in his heart.
Fortunately, Wade was usually very quiet. Until Lucian felt that he was staring at his collar, he couldn't help but ask the system: "Doesn't my collar cover that mark?"
"It's covered." said the system.
Lucian was still thinking, but Wade had already finished his meal. When came over and pulled Lucian's tie, Lucian almost jumped up.
Vader was just barely able to see the bite mark hidden beneath his collar.
"You found the hoodie and put it on? Interesting."
"What?" Lucian asked subconsciously.
"Nothing." Wade shrugged. "I plan to stay here until I completely devour the heart. You can do whatever you want here."
"You won't enslave me?"
"..." Wade said, "Just be quiet if you're hungry."
Lucian: “But I can’t see anything.”
"After I devour the heart, it can be solved by feeding blood." Wade said.
Lucian didn't get any blood, and was driven back to his room on an empty stomach. It was called driving, but in fact, Wade took him back to the room with him, who wanted to take a walk to see the terrain, and warned him not to run around. After returning to the room, Lucian lay on the table and said for a long time, "I hate the Riddler the most."
system:…
Lucian: "Do you have my strategy video saved? Help me find what this bow tie is—"
The system searched for a while and said, "This bow tie carries important memories between you and Wade..."
Lucian: “?”
System: "It was a gift from a beautiful lady after he accompanied her to a show. You stole it from her."
Lucian: “…Really? I don’t remember.”
The system then played Lucian's crime record.
That was when the two teenagers came here for vacation. The Cecil family occasionally socialized with the gentry in the nearby town, and there were also various distant cousins. The beautiful young lady who was famous for her romantic life was one of them, and she brought her daughters. Dalton Cecil then asked Wade to accompany the lady who was afraid to go out with other women and several young ladies to watch the show.
After the event, Wade accompanied the lady to the store. The lady chose the bow tie for him and joked that he should be engaged to her daughter. When Wade came back, Lucian got angry and snatched the bow tie away.
But God, he was really just making things difficult for Wade at that time, and snorted at him, "You have no chance to get engaged to those beautiful ladies."
And so on.
…Lucian suddenly felt that the bow tie on his neck was very delicate, but if he changed it, it would seem like he was doing something wrong. In the end, he did not change it.
Continue to be stubborn.
Wade was still busy recovering from his injuries, and he didn't come to feed Lucian blood until the next night. The feeling of satisfying his blood craving that had been dry for a long time made Lucian so comfortable that he scratched several marks on Wade's back. Even after the end, Lucian couldn't help but hold Wade's arm tightly.
His vision was clearer than before—but only to a limited extent. Seeing that Wade had retracted his arm, Lucian said unhappily, "I want to take a bath."
Now that he couldn't see clearly, Wade didn't let other servants help him. After Lucian made a subtle request, Wade raised his eyebrows and said, "Have you forgotten your identity?"
“Oh, thank you for reminding me, sir. I am your prisoner and servant.” Lucian had no choice but to say.
Then he was carried to the bathroom by Wade, who thought walking was too slow and too troublesome.
The bruises on his neck had not yet disappeared, and Lucian was very vigilant and did not let Wade wait for him to wrap himself in a towel before carrying him to the bathtub. He had to do it himself after entering the bathroom. Wade paused for a moment strangely, and then met his request.
Lucian finished his bath following the system's prompts, but when he came out, he got into trouble—Weid hadn't left after throwing the towel into the room.
It was already night, and he was wearing another shirt of Vader's. Vader seemed determined to wait until he fell asleep before leaving, but it was impossible for Lucian to change into a nightgown behind the curtain. Once he put on the nightgown, the bite mark on his neck, which looked more like a kiss due to the removal, would be exposed.
Lucian had to hesitate for a long time, and finally groped his way out from behind the curtain. Although he couldn't see Wade's face clearly, he could clearly feel his strange pause.
Lucian took off his trousers and wore only the loose shirt. Seeing that they were about to go to bed, Wade asked, "...?"
Lucian pretended not to understand Vader's "...?"
"You need to go to bed," Wade said coldly.
“Hmm…?” Lucian spread out the quilt, thinking, “Get under the quilt quickly,” and “Then what?”
"…" Vader said, "You plan to sleep in your shirt?"
Of course Lucian didn't know that he was now kneeling on the bed, adjusting the quilt, with his white thighs exposed under his loose shirt, while Wade behind him moved his eyes to the other side away from him, his expression and body posture a little stiff and weird.
"I was so scared when I was captured before. I sleep wearing your shirt. Your scent makes me feel at ease." Lucian got into bed and quickly covered himself with the quilt, leaving only half of his head and a pair of eyes exposed. "Good night, Master Wade."
Vader: … … …
After a very long silence, Vader walked out of the room. After leaving the room and closing the door, he said to the other side of the room in a voice that Lucian would never hear:
"Good night, Lucien."
Lucian did not hear Vader's response. He fell asleep shamelessly and heartlessly behind the door.
…
Lucian managed to get through this before the bite marks disappeared. A few days later, he heard some discussions and asked Wade about it in the morning.
"Who told you?" Wade asked coldly.
"Tell me first if it's true." Lucian said.
"Those boring bastards of the Church." Wade sneered. "Yes, the news that you are still alive has spread in the Church, and even a few guys who are not careful with their mouths have spread it to the secrets. They said it was fake news, but in fact they have issued the highest level of hunting order for you - they must get your body. In the entire history, you are the only one who has such an honor."
"Wow." Lucian didn't look scared at all, "Then I'm awesome."
Wade sneered. Lucian asked, "Have they come to see you?"
