I broke up with Merlin [Comprehensive]

When he quietly ran back to grow flowers, Merlin probably forgot that he should collect things that shouldn't exist.

It cannot be said that it should not exist.

It's just that the appearance of this thing in Cyril's eyes is very likely—it will bring back [probably] old things that have passed, and remind him of very unpleasant memories.

"In Avalon, can I still connect to the Internet?"

"Wait--"

Before he could stop it, Cyril had already walked over in front of Merlin, looking at the sinful computer.

Of course, he didn't directly turn on other people's computers, after all, privacy was involved, and—well, let's stop talking about it.

The effect is achieved.

Merlin (scared): "That—cough, cough, it's nothing, I just used a little trick..."

"Yeah, that sounds pretty easy."

Cyril sat at the table, resting his chin with one hand.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but from the moment he came to Avalon, he acted very relaxed, without any restraint.

This heart-born change changed his temperament, as if he was really getting closer to the "freedom" that the magician said step by step.

Merlin noticed.

While ironing the post in his heart, he couldn't help being stunned for a while.

then.

"Cough, cough cough—"

The voice of clearing the throat was deliberately contrived, but the effect of attracting attention was perfectly achieved.

Cyril looked up, looked past the slightly obstructive computer screen, and saw Merlin with his back turned to him.

The white-haired magician didn't know what tricks he was playing again.

"Honey, before I turn around, I want to apologize to you."

"……Uh?"

This nasty voice, which had been forgotten for a long time, unexpectedly appeared again.

If Your Excellency Merlin didn't want to further evoke Cyril's memories, the favorability that he had finally recovered would drop a bit.So, he did this because he wanted to...

"Because of coincidence, and the timidity of wanting to get closer but hesitating, I deceived you."

"Every day with you brings me joy and happiness, and I sink into this sweetness day by day. I want to be closer to you, but the contradiction caused by timidity cuts off the front and the back at the same time, I ..."

Finally, it came out.

The same content has indeed been said many times before, but before, there has never been a time like this, including all the guilt and remorse of the magician himself who did these bad things.

It's not an apology to save your lover.

Not an apology for the sake of "apology".

After going through so much, thinking and introspecting constantly, Merlin may finally understand where the root cause of his constant rejection lies.

Of course, he may only understand subconsciously.Compared with the previous nightmare, which is richer in emotion, it is inevitable to be a little confused.

It's just that Cyril understood and was moved - that's enough.

"I'm sorry, I hope to get your forgiveness. I dare not think about the consequences of being rejected again, because... I can't lose you again."

"..."

This suffering of waiting is part of "love".

To this day, the magician who has a thorough understanding of the emotion of love thinks.

He turned his back to his beloved human being, but he could feel that the other person's gaze from behind stopped on his back.

The heat thus penetrated the simulated body of the nightmare, blended into the flesh and blood, and burned the originally empty place like a flame.

Feel the pain, and feel fulfilled by the pain like never before.

"Then please listen to my heart, dear Mei Li."

After pondering, Cyril spoke quietly.

"Assuming you remember, I said that relationships based on concealment are fake, and I was very sick of it."

"...Yes, I'm sorry."

"Assuming you still remember the other words, I said, it's Merly or Merlin, I can't tell the two of you apart, and I don't know how to get along again. Oh, please don't say that you have no difference and have always been the same person .”

"Uh, that, that... I really can't quibble, I can only say that whether it's Mei Li or Merlin, their feelings for you are absolutely true."

There is a very obvious difference between Meili and Merlin, with deliberate camouflage inside.

However, using the reason "Only love for you is true" is really——

"It's too cunning, it's really you."

Cyril sighed.

While the magician was silent, he naturally changed to a more relaxed sitting position after he finished feeling:

"Emotions are real, so don't you just want to say that my 'love' for you also exists?"

"Hey, I just..."

"Unfortunately, it hasn't reached that level yet." Cyril tapped his index finger invisibly on his face.

He gave a cruel truth: "I'm sorry, Miss Meili, I like you very much, but not to the extent of deep love-this is not something a gentleman can say to a lady, but since you are not a lady, I just said it straight."

False "Miss Meili": "Although I guessed it a bit, it still hurts to hear it with my own ears!"

However, after a few pains, he quickly pulled himself together.

"Can I ask one more question?"

A question that can tighten the fire burning in his chest.

"Since 'Merry' is like this... then, what about Merlin?"

The magician couldn't help raising his head and looked at the pale wall in front of the cell, as if it was a mirror that could reflect his own anxious expression at the moment.

"Merlin."

The person being questioned whispered the name.

"Mr. my assistant? Well, of course I like him very much without paying him a salary or any benefits."

Cyril said so frankly, with a smile.

"……Hey."

Merlin's heart skipped a beat first, then he relaxed helplessly.In addition, some of the worries that had been pressing on my heart before also quietly dissipated at this moment.

He also laughed, but with a little regret: "It's also a cunning answer, but I'm still very happy...Huh? Wait a minute, Cyril? You suddenly! The honorific disappeared?!"

"You are quite dull, Mr. Unpaid Assistant," said Cyril.

The magician who turned around suddenly was temporarily thrown out of sight, and Cyril was no longer sitting. He went to look for the flowers that the magician had mentioned several times when he came.

However, looking around, the most conspicuous thing is still only the computer, and there is no shadow of flowers——

"what?"

Suddenly caught a little hidden color, Cyril let out a surprise, took the initiative to take a step, and walked to the window.

It is said to be a window, but in fact it is just a small narrow gap hanging on the wall, through which light and wind can easily leak in.

He approached and tiptoed slightly, only to see the green branches and leaves protruding from the window sill.

Among the branches and leaves, there is only one small pink flower dotted.

"……This is it?"

Cyril's intuition told him that there should be something hidden, and Merlin could never be so boring.

"Ah, why was it discovered in advance!"

Sure enough, with a glance, Merlin sighed that the surprise he had prepared had been discovered in advance.

There is no way to be discovered.

The place he wanted to take Cyril was not this room, but the "outside" that could be accessed through a temporary door in the room.

In the center of the tower, there is a ring that protrudes outwards, and dozens of white beams are like wings.

This place was obviously not built for people to set foot on.

But Merlin stepped on one of the wide enough beams, took Cyril's hand, and brought him here.

Above is the top of the tower that seems to be directly connected to the sky.

Under the beams you step on, there is a sea of ​​flowers swaying in the wind.

The most important thing is that when Cyril stepped forward, his gaze swept to the rear inadvertently, and the extended tower body inlaid with these extensions was surrounded by a beautiful curtain that had never existed before.

Who planted the rose here?

The climate in the fairyland is better than that of the present world, so that the thick bushes that can already grow are laid wantonly and stretched in the sun.

The tallest cluster climbed up to the window, and the ones below had more circled the extended beam a few times, all the way to the front end of the beam, and tremblingly stretched out from the side. A branch with only one flower.

When the two walked over, they had to be careful not to step on those few pink roses that were blooming just right.

"Well, it seems that it looks so good that there is almost no place to sit... Well, here it is."

"Is it here?"

With some doubts, Cyril sat down in a place with slightly fewer flowers and leaves.

The magician also sat down, next to him.

The feet are hanging in the air. If you are afraid of heights, you will feel dizzy the first second you sit here.

Fortunately, Cyril is not very afraid of heights.He glanced roughly at the surrounding environment, his gaze was attracted by Rose, and it took a long time before he retracted it.

But the doubts in his heart were still there, and he still wanted to ask: "How did you get the flowers here? The difficulty is not low. However, I still don't understand, what is the significance of doing this, and why do you have to... ..."

"It has a very important meaning. I have been thinking about it for a long time, but I just suffer from no chance..." Merlin chuckled, a color symbolizing remoteness floated in his purple eyes, and he seemed to sink into the past once again. In time, so that the thoughts are wandering.

"I thought there would be no chance, but I didn't expect that I could get it again. The flowers—haha, they are actually just icing on the cake. I thought, this might make the atmosphere better, you Maybe even happier."

Cyril just opened his mouth: "I still don't understand..."

"Cyril, my lord the duke."

He was slightly taken aback by the soft voice like the spring breeze.

"This is the place I wanted to bring you back then. Here, you can see the end of the sea of ​​flowers, which is the junction of the fairyland and the destination of the pure soul."

"Look, it's in that direction."
