I didnt ask Ying to stay at my side, because I insisted on having her as my bodyguard. I rely wanted to give her sothing to do at my side. Plus, Ying was a force to be reckoned with. I was confident she could combat any assassination attempts. I just never expected her to be averse to killing to that extent. I thought she had killed before; I didnt think she loathed killing people so much.
Lucia, look into my eyes.
Lucia looked up at . Puzzled, she asked, Whats wrong, Your Highness?
Tone serious, I asked, Do you see the eyes of soone who has killed a lot when you look into my eyes?
Lucia shook her head: Dont mind what that woman said, Your Highness. In my eyes, youre very kind as you once were.
No, Lucia, look at my eyes. Do you see a murderous aura in my eyes?
I pressed my hands down on Lucias shoulders, and then looked into her eyes. She raised her head to et my eyes. However, Lucia started having hot flushes within re seconds, and then shyly lowered her head.
Were married and have kids, yet youre still too shy to exchange eye contact with ?!
Lucia tightly held my hand after lowering her head and shyly said, Its not my fault!! My heart always races uncontrollably whenever I look straight into your eyes! I shy away when I make eye contact with you! When I look straight into your eyes, I feel your eyes are very nice very nice
Touched, I tightened my grip on Lucias shoulders and gently hugged her. She leaned onto my chest and looked up before shutting her eyes. I shifted my hands down to her waist and gave her a light kiss
The two of us snuggled up together and kissed. Lucia carefully and greedily sucked on my tongue. We were reluctant to break up. Her nose gently brushed across my cheeks. The two of us enjoyed the warm and gentle mont
I had a sudden realisation: Wait, what the heck?! I just wanted Lucia to look at my eyes. How did we end up kissing?! How did we end up in this sort of scene?
We couldnt bear to part. Lucia gently wiped her mouth. The bliss in her gaze was akin to spring water bursting forth, bringing forth a warm twilight. Before we could embrace again, a cold blade accompanying a gust of wind thrust through between us.
The sudden appearance of the blade almost put on my bottom; I nearly had my nose shaved off. The ice-cold blade zipped straight passed where Lucia and my lips almost t again. I shrieked, while Lucia looked in the direction the blade ca in. She coldly clenched her teeth and exclaid, Nier, what are you trying to do?!
Nier coldly responded, Nothing. I just cant stand you reaching for a yard after taking an inch.
Lucia tightly grabbed onto and fud, What do you an I reached for a yard after taking an inch? Im His Highness wife. Whats wrong with kissing my husband? Plus, that shaless stuff you do every night is whats called reaching for a yard after taking an inch! Keep it up, and Ill make it so you cant do with His Highness tonight!!
We agreed that dayti belonged to you, while night ti belonged to !!
What are you doing right now, then?! Whats wrong with kissing His Highness during the day?!
Lucia drew her dagger at her waist, and then leaned over again. Nier narrowed her eyes. I turned to Nier and said, Nier, look into my eyes.
Did the elf destroy them?
Nier lingered for a mont, and then hurried over. She shoved Lucia away with one hand. Lucia quickly wrapped her arms around my waist and shoved Nier in her face. The two of them shoved each other back and forth.
I wanted to say, Im no longer surprised that the two of you often do this sort of stuff, but can you two not throw around?
Nier wrapped an arm around my arm, while Lucia hugged around my waist. I felt as though the two would rip apart
What are you three doing? asked Mommy Vyvyan, right when I was about to call for them to stop.
Startled, Lucia quickly released and obediently stood aside. Elizabeth ca along with Vyvyan and looked at Nier. The three of us behaved as we would in a formal setting and watched my two moms approach.
Smiling, Vyvyan stroked my head: Son, the departure fleet is ready; we can leave at any ti. Do you have anything else to prepare?
Ill need to ask Ying.
Havent you already asked her?
I went red in the face. I initially planned to go and ask her. For so reason, though, I ended up kissing Lucia, and then bringing out Niers jealousy.
I stopped to ponder: Speaking of which, why did I kiss Lucia? Oh, right, right
I said, Mom, I really want to know if what Ying said is true Have my eyes changed?
My question left both of my moms silent. Mommy Vyvyan looked at with a lancholic gaze. She gently clasped my face then pulled tightly into her embrace. She stroked my back with firm strokes and, in a soft voice, answered, Its all right. Its all right. Son, Mommy understands you. Mommy understands you. Its not your fault. Its not your fault. Youre kind. Youre kind.
Mommy Elizabeth nodded: Mm. You may not have noticed it, but after Mommy returned to the nation, people said my gaze has changed. Its all right, Son. Its a necessary step in becoming a ruler. Theres no need to worry.
Vyvyan turned around to roar at Elizabeth: You make it sound as if it wasnt you fault!! fired Vyvyan.
Is there sothing wrong about teaching my son how to survive?! argued Elizabeth.
The atmosphere between them began to freeze. Judging from the way Vyvyan had her teeth clenched, I wouldnt be surprised if the two of them got into a physical altercation.
I suppose my gaze changed. The version of that Elizabeth and Vyvyan wanted were different. My heart and eyes changed when I was in the dungeon with Mommy Elizabeth. I didnt know how my eyes now looked; but nonetheless, others noticed what I least wanted to recall.
I said Im going to go and ask Ying about the wyrm.
I didnt say anything else and just gently wiped my eyes. I didnt know what was in my eyes, but it had penetrated deep into my soul and eyes.
I killed, and I killed lots. Id definitely continue to kill people even if they werent anthropoids. I understood Yings concern, and I understood she didnt want to kill, but I already knew that this world wasnt that nave. This wasnt a world where you could convince people to lay down their arms with sound reasoning. Sotis, blood had to be spilt. People had to die, and those who deserved to die had to be killed. However, I promised myself not to kill people on baseless grounds, and I wouldnt kill the innocent. That was my condition.
