Master always wants to counterattack

Altas found that he still underestimated how frightened his young master was yesterday.

In the morning, he was about to go upstairs to wake up his young master, but he saw his young master running down barefoot with deep fear hidden in his eyes.

"Master, what's wrong with you?" Altas couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw this.

The moment they looked at him, Altas saw that his young master was obviously relieved.Master Xiu Er stood on the spot and hugged himself tightly, looked at him and murmured, "Altas, come here, I'm cold."

Altas walked over, and Xiu Er's body softened and directly stuck to his body.The boy closed his eyes, his eyelashes trembling slightly, and his pale fingers unconsciously clutched Altas' clothes tightly.

Altas stretched out his hand to support the boy's slender waist, lest the boy lose his balance and suddenly fall to the ground.He stretched out his other hand and gently touched the boy's forehead, his eyes were full of worry, "Master, are you okay?"

"Well, it's just a nightmare." Xiu Er tried his best to sound calm and calm, but his trembling eyelashes and fingertips that gradually turned pale due to too much force revealed his true mood.

Altas looked down at his crumpled clothes that were scratched by the boy, and then at the boy's bare feet, finally couldn't help but sighed, and gently picked up the boy and brought him back to the dormitory.

"Altas..."

"Yes." The servant responded softly.

"Well...it's okay, I just wanted to call your name suddenly..."

Xiu Er curled up docilely and quietly in Altas' arms, the familiar body temperature and familiar smell made the boy's body gradually relax.Altas asked softly, "Master, what nightmare did you have?"

Xiu Er was silent for a moment, then opened his mouth and said, "I have already forgotten."

"That's it...well, it's good to forget." Altas smiled as always, hiding a meaningful gaze deeply in his eyes.

Xiu Er closed his eyes and remained silent.He wouldn't tell Altas—at the end of that nightmare, Altas disappeared from him, and he looked for Altas' existence in a panic, but in the end he found nothing.

In the illusory dream, the bewildered child could only curl up in a corner and cry helplessly while hugging his small body.Transparent tears dripped down on the dry ground, and fine dust particles gradually rose in the air...

The sense of helplessness seeping out bit by bit from the depths of his heart made people feel hopeless, so when Master Xiuer woke up, his first reaction was to look for the existence of Altas, so that Master Xiuer ran down the stairs. Sometimes I didn't even have time to put on my shoes.

He is too dependent on Altas.Xiu Er thought so.

Xiu Er unconsciously tightened his arms around Altas.But he just couldn't do without Altas, from the moment Altas wrapped him in a warm coat, he knew he couldn't do without Altas anymore.

From that day on, he had a long period of difficulty accepting that other people touched any part of his body, even if it was just lightly stroking his hair, he would not be able to suppress the urge to nausea and vomiting.

The only thing he doesn't resist is Altas' touch to him, and the specific reason is not even clear to him.He only knows that he likes to see Altas come into his field of vision, and he doesn't dislike Altas serving him, eating, sleeping, bathing and dressing.

Altas is the most trusted, valued and beloved servant of Her Majesty Sinas Karan—or Altas' status has long been higher than that of a servant, because the name Her Majesty bestowed on Altas is "Alta Skalan".

Karan—the most honorable surname in the entire foreign world, the only surname that belongs to the royal family.

But Xiu Er likes Altas, so Sinas Karan, the most honorable woman in the entire otherworldly continent, gave Altas to Xiu Er as a gift for Xiu Er's tenth birthday.

Master Xiu Er was really flattered to receive this precious gift.Xiu Er opened his big round eyes, "Altas...is this my birthday present?"

"Yes," Her Majesty looked at her lovely child intently, with a gentle smile in her beautiful eyes, "from today onwards, he belongs to you—only to you, Seul."

"What belongs to me, belongs only to me..." the child murmured, a faint smile finally appeared on his paralyzed little face.He looked up at Altas who was beside him. Although there was still no expression on his small face, his big bright eyes revealed the child's joyful mood. It was like looking at his favorite toy, sweet and nostalgic. "Altas, you belong to me."

"Yes, I belong to you, Master Xiuer." Altas smiled and leaned over to him, his five fingers wearing white gloves lightly pressed the position on his chest, "—only belongs to you."

**

"Master, are you sure you don't need to rest in the mansion?"

Altas looked at his young master's pale complexion, and softly persuaded, "It doesn't matter if you don't attend the banquet hosted by Miss Beryl Brown, Miss Beryl Brown will send you an invitation specially. Letter, this shows that she must be interested in you. You can choose to invite her to the Adelaide family's mansion for dinner another day, and she must be very happy to accept your invitation."

"Needless to say," Xiu Er picked up the pure black leather gloves that were put aside, "I have decided to attend the banquet held by Beryl Brown today."

"Well, what a stubborn and willful young master." Altas sighed helplessly when he heard the words, took over the finely crafted gloves and put them on the young white and tender hands.

Half an hour later, the carriage belonging to the Adelaide family stopped at the gate of Beryl Brown's mansion.

"Miss, young master Xiu Er from the Adelaide family has come." The handsome and tall servant reported in a low voice.

Bai Lier looked back at him, her eyes were full of exclamation that couldn't be concealed, "Rolind, that's amazing, tell me—how did you do it?"

"I can tell you this after the banquet is over. As for now, as the host of the banquet, it's time for you to appear, miss." Rolinde leaned over and reminded in a low voice.

"Okay." Miss Beryl pouted her lips reluctantly.

Looking at the endless stream of guests at the gate of the mansion, Xiuer couldn't help frowning slightly.

Although the invitation said it was a "grand banquet", Xiu Er did not expect the banquet to be so "grand" to this extent.

……so many people.

He hated the feeling of being drowned in a sea of ​​people.

Xiu Er closed his eyes, he began to regret a little - he should have listened to Altas if he knew earlier.

Altas looked at the young man's pale face, couldn't help smiling and teasing, "Does the young master regret it?"

"Regret? What would I regret?" Xiu Er gave him an annoyed look.

Altas thought for a while, and finally changed his words, "I regret that I agreed to Master Arthur's request so hastily."

"No." Xiu Er denied, "I agreed to Arthur because I owed him a favor before, and I don't like the feeling of being in debt to others."

"So that's how it is." Altas showed a look of sudden realization in cooperation, he looked at the arrogant young master, and smiled meaningfully, "If Lord Arthur hears you say that, he will be very sad, but he has always treated you As his friend."

Xiu Er bowed his head expressionlessly and was about to get off the carriage. He heard Altas's voice with a smile, "Master, do you need me to help you down?"

"No need!" Xiu Er stood firmly on the ground, and he glanced at Altas coldly, "I'm not that weak yet."

"But if you continue to hide in the room every day and don't go out to bask in the sun, it is estimated that you will need me to carry you down soon." Altas leaned over to help the boy sort some messy clothes, these words It's very serious.

"It's really long-winded, I know!" Xiuer frowned slightly, he looked up and saw the delicate face of the servant close at hand, his heart beat faster for a moment, and his cheeks became hot for no reason.

Altas pretended not to notice the strangeness of his young master.He glanced vaguely at the young man. He had rosy cheeks, thin lips that were so tender, big eyes that flickered and flickered, and long curled eyelashes... Well, his young master is actually very cute just by looking at it. Yes, like a delicate and beautiful little girl.

After successfully entering the mansion, Xiuer was about to look for the host of the banquet—Berlier Brown, but when he turned around, he saw Altas being entangled by a delicate-looking noble lady.Xiuer frowned, and looked away distractedly, but his slender wrist was suddenly held by a soft hand.

Before Xiuer could clearly see the person holding his wrist, his body had conditioned to shake off that person's hand.The person who was thrown away by him was obviously at a loss, stood there blushing slightly and muttered softly, "Ah, that... I'm really sorry, please believe that I don't mean anything malicious, I just..."

"Miss Bailier?" Xiuer showed a surprised expression after seeing the girl's face clearly. He quickly adjusted his state and put on a smile that is unique to socializing. It is very shallow and looks polite and alienated. You should apologize, I was the one who was rude just now."

"What, I was recognized by you." Seeing this, Bai Lier pouted her mouth a little unhappy, and her embarrassment and bewilderment disappeared immediately, "I wanted to make a joke with you, what a disappointment."

"joke?"

"Well, yes." Bai Lier narrowed her eyes and smiled, she called the boy's name very familiarly, and it sounded very friendly, "It's very interesting, Xiuer, do you want to know what it is?"

"……Um."

Xiuer casually responded to Beryl while looking for Altas from the corner of his eye. He was feeling a little depressed now, it was only a blink of an eye. Where did that guy Altas go?
