The protagonist always says he loves me

Imperial Army Headquarters, a confidential conference room on the nineteenth floor.

"That's how the defense against Planet Anlan is. Do you have any objections?" Gevis stood in front of the three-dimensional virtual map, holding an arm-length electric stylus in his right hand, and clicked on several places marked with red dots. Pass.With the click of the electric stylus, the flat single-line red dots instantly become full and three-dimensional, and the precise configuration and number of arms are unfolded in another space layer, presented in front of everyone in a compact and orderly manner.

This is the result of three or four days of discussion by the military department. The distribution of troops in each place has been carefully discussed, and it has now been perfected.Gevis glanced around for a week, and seeing that no one objected, he put his left hand on the electric stylus, pushed it back, and said, "Then one by one."

"Your Majesty." Earl Fernando stood up from the swivel chair, holding his military jacket in one hand, and bowed gracefully, "I still have something to discuss with Your Majesty."

Fernando's light gray pupils seemed to be covered with a layer of fog, making it difficult to see the depths of emotions. It is said that the girls of the empire evaluated them as the most classically beautiful eyes.At this time, besides the thrilling elegance, the mist in his eyes also has a hidden undercurrent, which can be seen at a glance.

He looked at the gold medal on Gevis's shoulder, which symbolized the highest military power of the empire, and smiled, "It has nothing to do with the deployment of Planet Anlan."

If it was not Earl Fernando who raised something unrelated to the topic at the military meeting, and Gevis would have been angrily reprimanded by many senior generals present without having to speak up.And this one can still maintain a smile freely, waiting for His Majesty's reply.

Gevis nodded slightly and turned off the [-]D projection.Fluorescent blue light flashed away, illuminating his chiseled profile. "What's up."

"The Royal Arena will be held at the beginning of next month. My lord mother asked me to ask His Majesty..." Fernando said, "Is His Majesty not going to participate this year?"

"Fernando, what do you mean?" The old General Eugene who sat at the head of the round table frowned dissatisfiedly, his gray beard was blown up, as if he had rubbed ash against the wall.In terms of seniority, he is Fernando's father's cousin, and he is the most qualified person in the conference room to call Fernando by his name.

Old Eugene snorted, and asked with sharp eyes, "Are you going to challenge His Majesty the Emperor in the arena?"

Fernando smiled and said, "Of course not, General. How dare I challenge His Majesty? It's just for my mother. His Majesty has not participated in the arenas for the past few years, and my mother thinks it is inappropriate. This year on the planet Ankaran The battle has been thwarted several times, and His Majesty... has recently married a queen, so he should make an appearance in the arena, so that the subjects can have a glimpse of my royal family."

He turned around, rolled his eyes in understanding, and said, "However, considering His Majesty's injury, if His Majesty doesn't show up, it's the same for me to go. Anyway, the royal family must go alone, right?"

Gevis turned his head, his falcon-like eyes met Fernando's smiling eyes.

"How does His Majesty decide?" Fernando asked.

"There is always one person going to the royal family," Garvis said, "It must be me. Do you have any doubts?"

After the meeting ended, old Eugene stood up leaning on a cane, cursing, "Little bastard..."

The young general next to him was puzzled, "The Earl routinely asked His Majesty if he wanted to participate in the arena. Why are you always so angry?"

Old Eugene said angrily, "What do you know? Can anyone participate in the Royal Arena?!"

Unprepared, the young general took a sap, and said innocently, "Isn't it just a competition hosted by the royal family every year? Only noble children can participate, and the scale is not as good as the military competition."

Old Eugene snorted heavily, without explanation.The young general was born as a commoner, so it was normal for him not to know the unwritten secrets of these aristocratic circles.Thousands of years ago, before the orc group formed a power structure in which the royal family and the elders held power together, this kind of competition that used force as a means and aimed at winning already existed.At that time, the winner will receive not only honor, but also something far more important—the throne.

In that era, the strong were respected, and the final winner of the arena often had the strongest physique and the most outstanding wisdom, enough to assume the responsibility of leading the group.It's just that after the succession of the emperor's throne in one family has stabilized, the color of the emperor's election has gradually faded in this competition.

Commoners don't know the origin of the arena, but they, veteran nobles, know it all.Noble disciples will participate in the arena as a coming-of-age ceremony, and almost every emperor of the empire is the winner of that year.They have the most powerful genes and have received the most formal and rigorous training since they were young. Naturally, they should intimidate everyone in the arena and suppress some thoughts that shouldn't be there.

What Fernando did today could almost be said to be provoking the emperor.If the emperor refuses to play, then Fernando will represent the royal family in the competition, and will be highly regarded in the hearts of many nobles.Even if the emperor agrees, he still has the chance to challenge the emperor head-on in the arena.According to the ancient rules, the emperor, as the former winner, has no right to refuse Fernando's challenge, and once the battle in the arena is lost...

Old Eugene touched the brown top hat on top of his head, and sighed in a low voice, "It's going to change."

……

Gavis returned to the palace, and saw a small figure leaning on the colonnade waiting for him from a distance.He unconsciously lightened his footsteps and approached slowly, only to see that the person leaning on the porch pillar seemed to be asleep, his eyes were slightly closed, under the warm light like fragments of gold, fine dust fell on his face On the eyelashes.

Gevis paused, and the saber on his waist hit the railing with a loud bang.

Chen Ci was startled awake, and quickly supported the corridor pillar, "You're back?"

"Ah."

"I'm waiting for you." Chen Ci went up to meet him, took his sword and held it in his arms, "The military meeting has been going on for a long time."

"Ah."

"Mrs. Constantine came to see me today..." Chen Ci walked beside Gevis, talking as if he wanted to share the most trivial things of the day with him.

Gevis listened for a long time, and when Chen Ci stopped because of his dry mouth, he asked, "You and her, did you have a good talk?"

"An old woman with her..." Chen Ci glanced at Galvez's expression, and changed his words, "What is there to talk about with a noble lady like her. It's better to talk about food and drink, even if the military is deployed, it's better It’s good to chat with parents.”

Garvis nodded thoughtfully.

Seeing that he was not walking towards the bedroom, Chen Ci asked, "Aren't you going back to rest?"

Garvis said, "No."

He paused and added, "You can go back first."

"Where are you going?"

"Martial arts field." Gevis paused before turning to leave, "Fernando is very proficient in eating, drinking, and having fun. He also has a temporary post in the military department and knows a thing or two about Ferman's patrol. If you feel bored, You can call him into the palace."

Chen Ci opened his mouth in surprise, and stood there holding his sword.Gevis thought what he said earlier was complaining about being bored in the palace, and wanted to find a playboy who could eat, drink and have fun with him?He thought he was secretly referring to Fernando?he is one by one

"Jealous?"

Chen Ci put the sword on his belt, and quickly followed.In his previous life, he was stuck with his lover as soon as he woke up, and he never stayed in one place for a long time. Even if his lover wanted to be jealous, he had no chance.This is really rare.

Chen Ci came to the Martial Arts Arena with a sense of playfulness, and was soon shocked by the scene he saw, and put away his reverie.

Gavis was alone on the semicircle of yellow sand.The military jacket was untied and hung on the bench outside the venue. The dark green short-sleeved skin-fitting short sleeves outlined the muscles clearly and plumply. The leather belt hung the loose military-colored trousers, which looked like a lover His arms completely encircled his thin waist.

Gevis took a step in the sand, and Chen Ci felt that he couldn't take his eyes off his upturned buttocks.The yellow sand and dust raised under the military boots temporarily obscured his vision, and he wished for a pair of hands that could clear the clouds and see the moon, and wipe away all these disturbing dust.

In the next second, Gevis' figure broke through the dust.

The raised dust couldn't keep up with his movements.

Just as the military boots were off the ground and before the dust rose up, Gevis shot out like an arrow feather on a full moon bowstring, and slammed into the stone pillar on the edge of the sand.

Chen Ci clenched his fists violently.It was a thick stone pillar surrounded by two people, and just by hearing the huge impact sound, one could imagine how much force Gevis endured at the moment of collision.He hung his saber on the treetop beside him, and ran towards the stone pillar.

When he ran to the side of the stone pillar, the dust raised in the field had already landed on the ground. Gevis stood beside the pillar nonchalantly, covering the cracks of the stone pillar with his palm, and groped carefully.There are cracks in the stone pillar, which is shocking to look at.

Chen Ci hurriedly grabbed his wrist, cupped that palm, and asked anxiously, "Why did you hit him? Where did you hit it?"

Gevis shook his head.

He used the other palm to hold Chen Ci's head that was thrust into his arms, and said, "It's okay."

Chen Ci belatedly remembered his orc physique. Even in the non-beast form, his resistance to blows was dozens of times that of ordinary humans.

Gevis put his big hand on Chen Ci's head, and gently stroked the short hair, feeling soft in his heart, "Go and rest."

"I'm not going." Chen Ci said firmly, "I'll just watch from the side."

Gevis pursed his lips and made no objection.

Chen Ci watched Gevis bump into the stone pillar again and again, and finally the stone pillar collapsed after the eighth bang disappeared.At that time, his heart was almost as broken as a stone pillar.

"Your Majesty... as expected, it is still very reluctant."

Chen Ci turned his head when he heard the sound, and saw Ankara, the head of the guard, standing aside with a disappointed face.

"Sorry, Queen, I am..."

Chen Ci stared at him and said, "What's going on? What do you mean?"

Ankara thought that the news that His Majesty was going to participate in the Royal Arena had already spread, and he didn't need to keep it secret, so he replied, "At the invitation of Count Fernando, His Majesty decided to participate in the Royal Arena at the beginning of next month. Now... it should be Are you getting ready?"

"But since he was injured a few years ago, His Majesty's combat power has not been as good as before." Ankara suddenly looked at Chen Ci with burning eyes, as if he saw something luminous on his face, "Your Majesty is here!"

Chen Ci asked in confusion, "What?"

Ankara opened her mouth, and wanted to say something more, but Gevis glanced indifferently.Ankara fell silent immediately.Gevis picked up his coat, took off the saber hanging on the tree, nodded to Chen Ci, turned and left the martial arts arena.
