In this short moment, Lin Wei couldn't tell exactly how he felt.

Imperial City is an exquisitely crafted garden, where the sunlight casts changing light and shadows through the lush trees. The fragrance of flowers and the sound of the fountain are entwined gently. Some people relax and feel at ease basking in the sun outside the door, while some Walking on the green lawn, what you feel under your feet is the pulse and heartbeat of the dark mud.

They are accustomed to dealing with and gaining money in the dark. In front of their future and wealth, human life is just a move on the black and white chess board. The Prince is so easy and so rich in effect that they would not hesitate to drive a jeweled sword into his heart.

Something about him was exposed on the paper—things he would rather keep hidden, like a girl walking in the wild with her lover when thorns pricked her well-prepared clothes, revealing the ugly scars on her body.

The short time was too late for him to carefully speculate on the other party's state of mind, and all that emerged was the faint uneasiness and loss that came directly from the depths of his heart.

Lin Wei didn't move for a while, until the magician, who was still indifferent, picked up the paper from the dark honey-colored floor, handed it back to his hand, turned around and continued walking towards the door, his figure was still tall and straight, slender and Elegant, without seeing the waves and ups and downs of emotions.

Putting the letter back on the table, Lin Wei followed the footsteps of the sentence, not knowing what to say.

He recalled the emotions just now, and realized that what he was afraid of was not the exposure of his mind or the other party's doubts, but being rejected--magicians have the right and position to reject him, because the most serious crime in the wizarding world is to kill one's own compatriots .

After walking down the stairs, Heidi had already set the dining table - the first dinner to welcome the two companions back was of course rich, but the "richness" of the magicians meant adding several types of magic fruits, at most It's just a lot of work put into stacking and slicing shapes—their bland taste doesn't change in any way.

Normally, such a dinner would end very quickly, because there was really nothing to savor—but this time was an exception.

Daniel chewed the fruit in his mouth slowly, his ice-green eyes were turning back and forth between Lin Wei and Gregory, Heidi absent-mindedly moved the white fruit pieces on the plate, Talin and Nigel were eating quite well, the captain From time to time, the gentleman couldn't hold back and glanced at Lin Wei who was seated next to him, while Seth Angel lowered his head, unable to see his expression clearly.

In a stormy island isolated from the world, in a small two-story building - magicians and ordinary people sit together, princes, nobles and commoners have dinner together, such a scene is simply unbelievable.

The protagonists at the dinner table are Gregory and Lin Wei. The atmosphere in this room suddenly became strange and solemn the moment Lin Wei walked down the stairs and looked into Gregory's eyes, even though the two had been wandering Destination talk, and sometimes look at each other and smile.

After the difficult dinner was over, the rest of them got up and left with a sigh of relief, shut themselves in their rooms, and didn't look forward to the next meal.

Lin Wei returned to the desk and sorted out his thoughts—Gregory was no different from the image he remembered in his previous life, unfathomable and elusive, even in a helpless situation, he was still at a loss... His Highness probably thought about it with him, knowing that Tidis was still afraid of the royal family and would not make a move easily.

In addition to this self-confidence, Gregory may have a trump card. One or several magicians in the academy may secretly pledge their allegiance to the royal family, and his life in the magic academy for a few days is enough for him to understand the character of the magicians—— He concealed himself perfectly, the shrewd Daniel showed no hostility towards him, and Heidi's attitude was also very friendly. This girl with a pure heart is very likely to be used...

The man on the throne has straight dark red hair, thin lips, and a casual but confident smile. Every time I recall it, there is always a dark weight, which makes it difficult to breathe.

Lin Wei had to muster all his energy to deal with this Highness, but he almost lost his mind a few times tonight - he couldn't help but quietly looked at the magician opposite, wondering what this man was thinking.

The interval between dinner and the usual bedtime is not long, because most magicians choose to spend half the night in meditation. Thanks to this customary rule, Lin Wei's sleep time is always longer than when he was in the imperial capital.

As if to make up for the shallow sleep that was always superficial in his previous life, he likes to fall asleep—to spend a night without any disturbing thoughts, and wake up feeling relaxed and comfortable.

Lin Wei hugged his pillow and stood by the bedside of Juanyu, his eyes slightly lowered. This scene was similar to last night, except that he was fully awake now—he wanted to find a suitable environment to talk, and it couldn’t be the right place. Sitting, that's too tit-for-tat.

"I have something to tell you," he said, "Can I say it here?"

As expected, he was not rejected, which made Lin Wei feel a little relieved.

He is good at pushing an inch - so it is logical to wrap himself in the quilt of judgment again.

"That letter...you saw it," he organized his words, a little intermittently: "I really thought that way, but I changed my mind later, and I can't do it now."

The magician looked at his appearance at this time—it could be called docile and well-behaved.

"Why?" Juan Yu's response was just a simple question, with a calm tone.

"We are hostile. I hope that one day I can send Gregory to the cemetery with my own hands. If I can't this time, then next time." Lin Wei looked directly into Juan Yu's eyes: "His younger brother will be crowned emperor, I My family will have glory and a future, or if I am a person full of kindness and justice in my heart-the mainland will be spared a tragedy."

"At that time, I would like to write the epitaph for him." Lin Wei smiled shortly, his voice gradually lowered until it was hard to hear: "My... Your Majesty who sits on the throne made of bones and fire."

"Those who kill their compatriots will always be hunted down by law enforcers, and their souls will not rest in peace if they don't pay for it with their lives."

This is the first article of the "Iron Law", which was uttered by the magician in a cold voice.

"Yes...so," there was something soft in Lin Wei's eyes, but more of a color similar to discouragement. He continued in a low voice, "Are you going to judge me?"

"I have no right to judge."

Lin Wei's eyes widened slightly at the magician's next words.

"I don't know the rules on the mainland," the magician said slowly, "but if doing so can make you free and liberated, I hope you succeed."

He was a little dazed, facing Duanyu's dark golden pupils, the light from the magic spar was gentle, not too bright, which made those pupils, which usually couldn't see waves, look a little softer.

"To be free and relieved," he lowered his eyelashes slightly to cover up his overly intense emotions, and asked, "Why do you say that?"

"You enjoy life in the wizarding world, but are occasionally preoccupied, especially after his presence."

Lin Wei took a deep breath, he suddenly felt hot in his eye sockets, something was about to be released from his body, bringing soreness and pleasure, like a sharp blade cutting off corrupted flesh, and the mossy moist corners shone into the scorching hot Sunlight, deep-buried acne will appear after the old scars are peeled away.

This is what he wanted the most, but was intentionally or unintentionally forgotten.

He wanted to kill Gregory, desperately wanted to end him, using the fastest and most straightforward means, for the future of the family, and to avoid war.

But, it's not like this... He has a kind of paranoid hatred for Gregory. This hatred is not because of pity for the people who died in the war, or even because of the parents who died in the imperial capital, but because of the day and night. bondage and lifeless fate.

He is a magician covered up by secrets, a dark shadow hidden in the bustling imperial capital, tired and confused, with nowhere to go but the magician army, nothing to do except to serve Gregory—and ambitious His Majesty, who is good at suspicion, will not give corresponding trust.

Before he knew it, these boredom, confusion, and unwillingness to struggle entangled and converged into a vague hatred, which finally became strong and specific when facing Gregory.

The softly falling words of Juanyu suddenly pushed away the thick white mist, allowing him to see the inner heart that he had not even faced directly under the mist.

This thought first appeared when he met Bo Lan more than 20 days ago, and it was completely seen clearly at this moment today.

What he wants is nothing more than freedom and liberation. The family and the continent are the incidental results of a specious goal and the ultimate goal.

"I thought you were always emotionally indifferent and didn't care about these things." Lin Wei was silent for a long time before opening his mouth and said to Duan Yu: "I just realized today that you understand me... deeper than I imagined, even deeper than I understand myself .”

"We live together," the magician said to him after thinking for a while, "and you haven't hidden it."

"I thought you couldn't see it," Lin Wei said with a low smile in his voice, "It seems that I underestimated your sensitivity."

He suddenly became lighter, and the heaviness brought by Gregory's presence was no longer so disturbing. What he really wanted was right in front of him, approaching and sweet and alluring.

——As seductive as the promises heard in the trance of consciousness in the temple of the dead marsh.

Lin Wei looked at the sentence, unwilling to look away—this is a face that will be engraved by time and memory for a long time, a person who met and acquainted again in an unexpected way, he was as cold as ice most of the time—but For those who have walked alone in the dark and cold night for many years, snowflakes are as gentle as a sympathizer's kiss.

Behind this person is a free, clean, and vast magical world, and he has promised to accompany him for a long time. Either of these two things makes him yearn—the most sincere yearning.

Lin Wei experienced that feeling again, the heartbeat was clear and palpable, and the blood flowing through it was slightly hot, as if a fire had been ignited, and it became more and more intense.

He didn't want to go back to his bed.

——Put the egg on it tomorrow, and put it in the middle of the bed. It is big enough, and that bed can no longer sleep people.
