Vera avoids all the servants, and confesses her relationship with Tails to Milia in the duchess' reception room.Miria covered her mouth in disbelief and did not speak for a long time.After recovering, she frowned slightly, and while twisting the handkerchief back and forth, she asked Vera uneasily, "You... are you really in that relationship?"

Vera nodded and poked Tails casually.Tails froze for a moment, thinking that Vera was going to ask him to say something, so he proudly raised his head and announced: "Yes, Vera is mine, and we have become that...legal bed partner." He lowered his voice and asked Vera, "Is it called this?"

"It's a partner."

Milia looked like she was about to pass out.But when Vera leaned forward to help her, she waved the handkerchief helplessly, signaling Vera to go back and stay.Miria's eyes turned around Vera and Tails.With tears in her eyes, she asked sadly, "How are you going to explain to your father?"

"do not know."

Miria has already twisted the handkerchief into a twist, "To be honest, although I find it difficult to accept, it is not surprising. You seem...too close. I can keep silent about your relationship, but Vera, you Do you think Bone will?"

"Mother, thank you." Vera said sincerely.

"Why are you still talking about this? You know Brian's temper, he..." Milia glanced at Tails, as if he was embarrassed about what to say next, "I'm afraid..."

"I'm afraid I'll break a leg."

Hearing Vera's words, Tails looked at him in surprise and asked, "Are you sure it's not two?"

"Perhaps another arm."

Miria looked at Tails, and the sadness on her face deepened.After thinking about it for a while, she solemnly told Vera: "In short, don't let Born know about this matter."

"It's okay, Mother. He can't catch me." Vera didn't care.

"What are you talking about? Is there any secret that I can't let me know?" With a deep and deep voice, Boen, the Duke of Manding, walked in, and Miria's maid followed behind him, showing embarrassment.Born glared at Vera, "Did this little cunning get into some trouble again?"

Miria quickly covered it up: "Vera said just now that he broke the black star stone ring you gave me. He said he wanted to try if this could be used to cast spells, but an accident happened accidentally." Her smile looked very calm, and if there were no wet marks on the corners of her eyes, she would not be able to tell that she was lying.

Born obviously didn't believe it, and looked at Vera suspiciously.

Vera smiled at him, took Tails's hand, and said frankly: "Father, let me introduce you again. This is Tails, my lifelong partner."

Miria silently covered her mouth.Boen looked a little confused, and didn't figure out what a "lifelong partner" was for a while, "You mean, you plan to be his companion for the rest of your life?"

"Not a companion, but a lifelong partner, just like you and your mother."

Bone's eyeballs almost fell to the ground.

After finally understanding the situation, Born kept pacing back and forth in the living room, stopping from time to time to look at Vera and then at Tails.Tails stood side by side with Vera, wisely keeping his mouth shut.He noticed that the fingers of the Duke who was as proud as Vera were trembling slightly, and he couldn't help but think of Inosus.If one day he takes Vera, a human, to "confess" to Inosus, and this human has cheated him... Last time Inosus almost killed Vera, if he told him directly : "Hey, Inossus, I have a partner, you also know him, the one who caught me with despicable means last time and made me his slave, and you almost suffered in his hands Human mage..."

As a result, it is conceivable that in addition to wanting Vera's life, Inosus probably had to dig out his own eyeballs—he was blind anyway, and it was useless to keep them.Thinking of this, Tails couldn't help feeling sorry for him, and glanced at Vera quietly.

Vera stood there straight, with a smile that was about to freeze.Tails muttered secretly: It seems that this despicable mage has to rub his face tonight, otherwise his face will collapse.Imagining Vera's face paralyzed and unable to smile, Tails couldn't help laughing.

Laughter abruptly broke the heavy air.Feeling three surprised gazes, Tails hurriedly stood up straight, staring directly at the hanging picture in front of him, pretending that everything had nothing to do with him.

Born stopped and stared at Vera, unable to say a word for a long time.Until Vera said: "Father, we can talk alone."

"Vera, you..." Miria looked at him worriedly.

"Father, is it okay? I have something to talk to you alone, such as your special operations team."

Born stared at him, his gaze almost burning through him.He snorted softly, turned and went out, and said, "Come here."

Vera squeezed Tails's hand quietly to reassure him, then smiled at Miria, and followed Boen to leave.

Only Tails and Miria were left in the living room.Milia rubbed her forehead lightly and sighed: "Mr. Tails, I should have guessed it earlier. I should have known that you and Vera had an unusual relationship from the day I was in the garden. He... always pays attention Watching your every move, he has been like this since he was a child. It’s just that I was too excited at the time and didn’t notice it at all.”

Tails really didn't know what to say. Although he didn't know much about humans, he also knew that same-sex intercourse among humans was not common.So he thought about it, and finally came up with a line: "My lord, I'm sorry, he is already mine. I'm sorry that I can't return him to you. This is also for the sake of my stomach..."

Miria let out an exclamation.

"That... secret." Tails realized something was wrong in time, and nodded solemnly, "That's right, the secret in my stomach."

"What secret?" Miria asked suspiciously.

"Secret."

"..."

Miria sighed again, "Mr. Tails, how long have you known Vera?"

"More than a year... oh, let me do the math, it's about 18 years."

"...You mean?" Miria reacted in time, "You and Vera met when they were young? Did you meet again later?"

"Yes."

"So, how old are you this year?"

"210, oh no, 26 years old."

"Three years younger than Vera, you look very young, like in your early twenties." There was a hint of suspicion in Miria's eyes.She continued to ask, "Then where is your father from?"

"Negril Mountains."

Miria nodded, "It's very far away. May I ask what kind of job your father is doing now?"

"do not know."

"do not know?"

"I've never seen him. But he should be alive."

"Then what about Lingtang?"

"Her? I rarely see her, so I don't know."

"A relative took care of you when you were young?"

Tails thought for a while and nodded.

Miria showed a forced smile: "You are really strong."

After a long silence, Miria sighed again, "Mr. Tails, with all due respect, I know Vera. He has never been liked by others since he was a child. Do you really like him?"

"of course."

"So...can you stay with him forever?"

"No."

"..."

Seeing that Milia's face was not right, Tails thought for a while and explained, "I mean, he shouldn't live as long as me."

"You are only three years apart, and there is no difference in life expectancy."

Tails looked at Milia and said seriously: "Vera is my man, and I will always be with him until the end of his life."

At the same time, Boen said to Vera seriously: "What you said is true? It's not a nasty joke or what you're used to?"

"of course."

"Vera, you really..." Boen frowned, clenched and loosened his fingers, as if he didn't know how to say it.

"Yes, I love him."

"You..." Boen pondered for a while, "Okay, that Tails, what do you like about him?"

"All."

"Vera, it stands to reason that you have already rejected my proposal, so it is inconvenient for me to interfere with your freedom to choose a partner." Born frowned, "But as your father, I can say that your vision is really not flattering. "

"Father, you can question me, but please don't be dissatisfied with Tails. He is not only my lover, but also my savior."

"What? You worthless boy, aren't you so proud that you even dared to trespass on my mansion? You also uttered wild words and didn't pay attention to my subordinates at all. You still need him to save you?"

"I can indeed be proud in front of your guards and even the Special Executive." Vera replied proudly, "But what I met that time was an army."

Hearing the army, Born's expression became serious.

Villa went on to add: "An army with dozens of battle priests. No matter how good a mage is, it is difficult to retreat unscathed."

"You said you wanted to take back your mage tower. I thought you had fled before the army arrived."

"I did avoid them, but I didn't expect them to be so obsessed with me, as if I was a big black star stone shining with stars - I hid in the wood spirit's forest, but they still caught me." Wei Wei Pulling down the neckline a little, revealing the brand marks below the collarbone, "The group of lunatics imprisoned me for more than ten days, Tuffett and the group of priests planned to burn me to death, but Tails saved me. I once framed He, I thought he must hate me very much. But I didn't expect that he would break into the enemy at all costs and risk his life to save me."

"Tuffee? It's him." Boen's fingers tightened quietly, he stared into Vera's eyes, and asked calmly, "If it's really what you said, then is this Mr. Tails How did you save you from the enemy? In my opinion, he has good skills, but if he breaks into the enemy pile like this, he will definitely become a sieve."

Vera smiled: "Father, he is not a human being. In fact, he is a dragon, a golden dragon."

Born's eyeballs almost fell to the ground again.

"Father, I think you have the right to know this, but please keep it a secret. Mother...may be a little hard to accept."

"Hmph! Boy, you are really promising. Not only have you abandoned everything about yourself, but you are planning to live with a dragon? Are you afraid that he will swallow you up one day?"

"Tals won't."

"Even if he doesn't, he doesn't care about his...gender. But have you considered? Vera, how long can you live? Will you spend the rest of your life alone when you get old, or let him watch you die?"

Vera smiled, as if covering everything about herself, "Father, don't worry about it. Even if I hadn't met Tails, I would have died alone. I am a mage, and magic is everything to me."

"So you're determined?"

"of course."

Born thought for a moment, and gave up asking Tails, "Vera, let me ask you one last time. You really don't consider my suggestion?"

"Claire is a smart girl, and the Duchess is not without precedent."

"Claire is a girl after all, this may not be happy for her, not to mention... she is more willful than you."

"I will take care of her. Although Claire is young, she already understands what obligation is. She... is much better than me."

"This is your final decision? You know, I will not send a single soldier for anyone other than the heir."

"So it's even more impossible for me to do this. Father, don't talk about this, why not talk about your special operations team."

"how?"

"Perhaps you should pay more attention to the chief of the special operations team."

"Mentor Semmerel? Your cousin, what's the matter with him?"

"He may think that he will be your heir in the future. Now he can assassinate me and Tails, and he will probably do the same to Claire in the future. Of course, I don't mean this." Vera shrugged, "Do it at this time For such a thing to happen, he is really not very smart as an heir candidate. If he inherits the duke title in the future, I am afraid that he will be so stupid that he will be sold and count the money."

Boen was silent for a moment, "This is indeed my fault. I have expressed this intention in the family. But since this is the case, even if Claire is not suitable, I will consider it carefully."

"So that's the end of the conversation?" Vera said cheerfully, "Mother and Tails should wait."

Born looked at him, snorted heavily, and walked towards the door.

"Remember to keep it secret, my dear father."

"Worry about yourself, I won't collect the body for you if you die at the hands of Tufete."
