top of magic

The night after Amir got the obsidian bracelet, when he and Kiki returned to his room from dinner, Darren appeared at the door of his room, apparently waiting for him, dressed in ordinary clothes.

"Honey, long time no see." Seeing Amir, Darren smiled and raised his hand to greet him.

"I thought we would never see each other, and I sincerely hope so." Amir responded indifferently, but subconsciously wrapped his right hand around Kiki's shoulder.

"It's really cold!" Darren smiled nonchalantly, "But, since we haven't seen each other for a long time, at least invite me in for a cup of tea?"

"You took all my property with you when you left, how could I afford you?" Amir sneered, "I'm sorry, give me a break, I'm going to rest."

"Isn't it just a little money? Now that you can live in such an expensive place as Golden Lotus, you shouldn't be so angry that you have to worry about me for a cup of tea." Darren said, turning his eyes to A Keech, who was beside Mir, immediately raised his eyebrows, and said jokingly, "Or, what you care about is not the tea money, but the meeting of new love and old love?"

"Love?" Hearing the word, Amir laughed contemptuously, "Come on, did you love me, or did I love you?"

"That's hard to say." Darren raised the corners of his mouth meaningfully.

"I'm not interested in talking nonsense with you." Amir said coldly, with a downcast face, "I know you must have something to come to see me, but I don't care about it, and I don't want to hear it."

"Oh, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you have become so ruthless?" Darren blinked in surprise, and turned his eyes completely to Kiki, who had been looking at him expressionlessly.

Seeing Darren's eyes turned from sideways to straight, Amir's heart turned cold, and he immediately raised his hand to cover Kiki's eyes, and at the same time warned coldly: "Put away your disgusting tricks, immediately Get out of my face!"

"What if I don't?" Darren didn't seem to expect that Amir would treat him with such an attitude, put away his smiling face, and asked stubbornly.

"Then I'll help you." As soon as Amir finished speaking, an unspelled Wind Control Art followed, rolled Darren up and smashed it against the wall at the corner.

With a loud "bang", Darren had hit the wall heavily, clutching his chest and raised his head, looking at Amir with a pale face in disbelief.

Amir didn't speak any more, just moved his lips and made a "roll" mouth shape, and his right hand still covered Kiki's eyes.Although Darren's insanity has no effect on Kiki, Amir doesn't want Darren to know about it, and then links Kiki to the Chimera family.

At this time, the attendants of the hotel were also alarmed by the noise, and hurried footsteps came from the stairs one after another.

Darren didn't seem to want to disturb too many people. He stood up immediately when he heard the footsteps, gave Amir a hateful look, turned and disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

Looking at his back, Amir couldn't help thinking of Darren's final ending last time.He originally hoped to kill him himself to end their relationship, but when things came to an end, he still couldn't do it, trying to leave Darren a chance.However, this kind of thing cannot be hidden from Kiki, who has inherited the power of the Chimera. When he failed to hear from Darren after a long time, Amir knew that Kiki had made a move and severed what he left behind. That ray of life.

—Stay away from me, you still have the possibility to live.

Amir sighed inaudibly, raised his hand and opened the door with the wind control technique, and walked in with Kiki.

After closing the door, Amir let go of Kiki's eyes, and said lightly, "Ask whatever you want."

"Who is he?" Keech asked immediately, tilting his head.

"An old acquaintance." Amir replied indifferently. "We had a terrible time together."

"Are you and him, like that noble young master and Seacrest that day?" Keech bit his lips.

"No." Amir shook his head, but immediately added, "To be precise, I don't know—I don't know what kind of relationship that young master has with Seacrest, I can only say, What they were doing that day, Darren and I...were doing."

Amir didn't hide.Although lies are unavoidable, human beings cannot rely on them to solve everything, and Amir does not want to deceive Kiki with endless lies.If Keech wanted to know, he'd confess to him the worst of it, just like the last time.

Keech didn't ask any further, just lowered his eyelids expressionlessly, and just when Amir began to worry about what he was thinking, he suddenly said, "You can do that kind of thing with him, but you don't want to do that with me. Do?"

"Huh?" Amir was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Keech in surprise.

Keech still didn't look up, and didn't speak anymore.

Amir didn't know what kind of thoughts Kiki had for saying such words, but such words really made him both happy and worried.

"Kiki." Amir sighed, and reached out to hug Kiki into his arms, "I'd better... tell you from the beginning!"

Amir told Kiki again about his childhood experience, including that he was once traded as a slave, and he was a child prostitute of a taboo magician with Darren, and he learned magic from that magician, and finally went wrong He was rescued by Barosh by mistake, and then returned to the world of ordinary people as a magician, lived with Darren, and then broke up.

Kiki leaned in Amir's arms and remained silent from the beginning to the end, until Amir finished speaking and there was no sound for a long time, then he raised his head and asked seriously: "Why have I never heard you about these things?" mentioned?"

"After all, this is not something glorious, is it?" Amir smiled helplessly, "I don't want to be disgusted by you because of these things, and I don't want to use these things to win your sympathy."

"But now you said it." Keech pouted.

"Because I don't want to be misunderstood by you more than disgust or sympathy." Amir lowered his head and tentatively kissed Kiki on the forehead. Seeing that he didn't dodge, he smiled and continued, "Darren is like my A memory, bad as it is, but indelible—no, rather, he is an integral part of it, and whether I admit it or not, like it or not, he exists and will always exist.”

"Can't you forget?" Kiki frowned, "I hate him."

"You don't have to pay too much attention to him." Amir kissed Kiki's forehead lightly again, "He is just a memory, and you are my most important thing."

Keech bit his lip and didn't answer, as if he wasn't satisfied with the answer.

"Baby, by now, you should know what I mean for you—although it was a bad way." Amir whispered as he continued to kiss Kiki, "I love you and hope you do the same love me."

"Of course I know, I'm not stupid." Kiki said sullenly, "However, I don't understand why you use the adjective 'bad'?"

"Because that's the most suitable word." Amir cupped Kiki's cheeks, looked him in the eyes, and said word by word, "The relationship between that noble young master and Seacrest is not a good one. On the contrary, it is a very bad thing, it is an immoral taboo that ordinary people - even normal people cannot understand, that's why they meet secretly, and that's why Seacrest is so nervous. My dear, if we don't help them hide this matter, but publicize it, believe it or not, even if Seacrest is not expelled from the family, he will be dismissed from the master-student relationship by Summerhaile, and even be attacked by strangers. spurned."

"I know." Keech rested his head on Amir's arms, "Men should be with women, just like Gordon and Molly."

"Yes, men should be with women." Amir touched Kiki's black hair, but immediately corrected, "But Gordon and Molly are not together, they are just... how to explain to you Honey, maybe you can’t understand, but in this world, a lot of people sleep with other people not because of affection, but just for physical pleasure, and other things...”

"I don't care about that!" Keech interrupted, "I see and know how men and men do it, but you don't do it like me, why? I just want to know why? !"

"Because I love you, I want your heart, your love, not just physical pleasure." Amir sighed and hugged Kiki tighter, "But I can't put my thoughts It is imposed on you, you have no obligation to love me, and you don’t need to dedicate everything to me just because I love you, or even take the taboo road of no return.”

"It doesn't matter, it's just... and there will be no loss of meat." Kiki bit his lip and muttered.

"Things are not as simple as you think." Amir kissed Kiki's black hair again, and then said in his ear, "Think about it for a while, baby, don't rush to make a decision, this matter It’s really not just body-to-body friction, it can bring you joy as well as pain.”

"Will it hurt?" Kiki raised his head immediately.

"I'm not just talking about the body, dear." Amir replied with a smile, secretly adding, of course, including the body.

Although Amir did not accept Kiki's "throwing in his arms", his original intention was just to play hard to get, so that Kiki invested more thoroughly.He can already be sure that even if Hill suddenly appeared last time, it is impossible to snatch Kiki away from him again. The only thing he needs to do now is to wait—wait for Kiki to hold back, Once again, she took the initiative to ask him for love.

Amir thought very wonderfully, and even began to think about what kind of perfect first night should be given to Kiki, and where should he choose the place, whether it should be on the big bed in the Mage Tower of the Asshai Magic Association, or endure for a while, and go to Chimei Pulling the castle, or looking for a cozy open-air place...

But anyway, Amir didn't want to hug Kiki in the golden lotus.For him, there are really too many bad memories here. Every time he comes here, he will unconsciously think of what Keech and Hill did here, and then he can no longer bring up the slightest "sex" Sincerely.

However, it's nothing. After De Rossi's anniversary celebration is over, they will leave, and then they will never come to this hotel again, or even set foot in this city.

Amir happily drew his own blueprint called the future, completely forgetting the "sincere" reminder given to him by Moriarty when he reached an agreement with Moriarty.

On Midsummer's Day, De Rossi's anniversary celebrations took place as scheduled.Amir took Kiki to the Dragon Square where the celebration was held, to watch the float parade and military parade.

As he watched, Kitsch yawned, regretting that he had chosen to stay.

"It's so boring!" Keech complained depressingly.

"You have to experience it yourself before you can know the truth." Amir rubbed Kiki's black hair with a smile. "Next time, you won't have any expectations for this kind of celebration."

"I hope there will never be a next time." Kiki muttered, and said suddenly, "Is that priest over there who has been looking at us the same guy who came to look for you yesterday?"

Amir followed Kiki's gaze and found that Darren was wearing a priest's black robe and sitting on the viewing platform where the Holy See was, staring coldly at his direction.

"Don't pay attention to him, let alone look into his eyes." Amir raised his hand and twisted Kiki's cheek back, reminding him in a low voice.Two days ago, he had told Kiki all about soul magic and insanity, and he also told Kiki that he might not be affected by insanity, but because of this, his bloodline would be seen, and he would give birth to a child. bad intentions.

Hearing Amir's words, Kiki glanced at Darren out of the corner of his eye, and then turned his eyes to the floats under the stage as if obediently.

Although there was such a small episode, when the last float passed the viewing platform, everything was still in order, and there were no surprises or horrifying accidents. It was as smooth and ordinary as last time.

Although Kiki was very disappointed with the outdoor celebration, he still had a little interest in the palace that he had never been to, and Amir didn't want to turn against Emperor Yalong because he left at this time—although he wouldn't live long up.So, when the celebration ceremony in the open air was over, Amir took Kiki in the carriage provided by the royal family, and went to the palace with other guests, preparing to attend the palace dinner that will be held later.

But at the warm-up reception before the official start of the dinner, something happened suddenly.

When the cardinal of the Holy See walked towards Fernando with several priests including Darren, preparing to exchange a few ceremonial greetings, before the cardinal could stop, Darren followed him Suddenly clutching his chest, he bent over in pain and fell to the smooth marble floor.

Seeing Darren in this appearance, Amilton's expression changed, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at Keech next to him—he would never forget that once, Tina's mother, Angelina, acted in this way. The person who died in front of everyone and made her look like that was Kiki.

Keech's appearance at the moment seems to prove this too. He squinted his eyes halfway, opened them slowly after feeling Amir's gaze, and then looked at Amir expressionlessly.

— Keech, killing Darren again?

Amir stared at Kiki blankly, and suddenly felt a bit bitter in his throat.
