Before he was crowned king II

The cold light spots shining on the silver metal gave people a creepy feeling. Sean stood in place, his pupils constricted, and a coolness ran down his back.

That mask was nothing else, it was the meeting gift given to him by Mary Victoria.

That is, the one he wore for five years as Sean Cabed!

For a moment, Sean was stunned. He didn't expect that this mask would suddenly appear in front of him at this moment, and he didn't know who would be hiding under the iron mask.

Is it Herrell?

No, it's not.Sean quickly vetoed this guess, because he saw the "man in the iron mask" beckoning to him.

The other party was signaling him to follow quickly.

Sean narrowed his eyes and looked at the figure of the "Man in the Iron Mask". When he saw the patterned skirt hidden under the cloak, he was stunned again.

"You..." Sean didn't finish speaking, but chose to keep a certain distance behind the other party.

The man walked lightly, like a dim ghost in the woods.Fortunately, Sean was familiar enough with the Rose Manor, and it didn't take long for him to be guided to the long-abandoned cultivated land behind the steeple building.

The man in the iron mask stopped, tilted his head, and looked at him face to face.

"Ahem, cough, do you feel scared, Sean Miller?" The man in the iron mask lowered his voice and made a fake and rough voice.

"Which show is this?" Sean sighed softly.

"I'll count to five, and you will definitely be shocked by what you see!" The man in the iron mask laughed twice with his nose, and raised his right hand high, "Are you ready to look forward to it? Sean, answer me!"

"I think I should be ready." Sean looked at the man in the iron mask with a helpless expression, "So what do you want to do? Senior Irene."

"Huh?" A girl's doubtful voice came from behind Tie Mian, "I, have I been recognized?"

"Yes, senior." Sean walked over step by step, reaching out his hand to take off the mask on the girl's face, "I want to know what you're wearing on your face—"

There were colored flashes of light piercing the darkness of the night, illuminating his and Irene's faces, and then a loud explosion completely drowned out what he was about to say afterward.

"Fireworks?" Sean raised his head and looked at the sky in surprise.

It was the fireworks that shot straight from behind the woods, bloomed and fell, and in an instant the night became a canvas, showing the art of light and color blending to the extreme.

Chrysanthemums, palm trees, serpentine lines... The colorful flashes are blurred like an illusion. Sean stared at the falling fire seeds, as if he could easily touch them with his hand.

"That's right, it's fireworks, a total of one hundred rounds." Irene took off the iron mask, raised her head like Sean, and said with emotion, "It's beautiful, Junior Sean. Although I asked for a cost price , but it’s also a full five thousand Queen’s coins!"

Sean looked at the girl beside him with some puzzlement.

"Have you heard of it?" "Crystal Fireworks" is a business that my family is doing. "Irene smiled a little.

"I don't quite understand. Is there any grand ceremony in the capital today?" Sean frowned slightly.

"No, Junior Sean, you are unexpectedly slow!" Irene put her foot on Sean's shoulder, "This is a birthday surprise we prepared for you!"

The fireworks illuminated the surroundings like daylight, and Sean was pushed by Irene to turn around, and found that Senior Stephen was standing in front of him with a mouthful of white teeth and a smile.

Of course, not only senior Stephen was in his vision, but also Parker, Fiona, Alex... and several other members of the Falcon Club.

"Surprise! My dear junior! Did you get scared!" Stephen rushed forward and gave Sean a warm hug, "Happy birthday! Congratulations on being one year older!"

"Birthday..." Sean was dumbfounded.

"Yeah, today is your birthday!" Stephen patted Sean on the back hard, and took a step back, "Haha, guys, it's so funny, Sean even forgot that today is his birthday."

Sean doesn't know his own birthday because his memory is incomplete.But he suddenly recalled that when he registered in the enrollment file last year, the date of birth he filled in was exactly today.

Because of this day, he made a contract with Herrell.

It also means that Sean Miller has gained a new life in the fire.

"We couldn't have made a mistake." Irene covered her mouth with her eyes wide open.

"No, no." Sean pinched the bridge of his nose, "It's my birthday, I forgot."

The crowd slowly approached Sean, and Erics stood in the middle, holding a large piece of decorated cream cake in his hand, with a few lighted candles on the cake.

"Thank you..." Sean stared at the flickering fire.

"Blow him out quickly." Erics said with a smile, "And remember to make a wish."

"Okay..." Sean didn't celebrate his birthday. He imitated the way other people made a wish in his memory, lowered his eyes, and blew out all the candles.

"Xion, happy birthday!" Everyone clapped their hands and cheered, crowding around and eating the huge piece of cream cake.

"Is this what you are hiding from me?" Sean looked at the black-haired young man beside him, "The reason why I have to come here."

"I didn't mean to lie to you." Alex was not good at lying, and scratched his hair in embarrassment, "Sister Irene said that it would not be a surprise to let you know in advance."

"Xion, you won't be angry." Seeing no response for a long time, Erics gently pushed the people around him with his elbow.

"No..." Sean lowered his head and found a clenched fist stretched out in front of him.

"Birthday present for you."

"What is this?" Sean didn't take it immediately.

"It's guarding the cross." Alex said, "In the class, the teacher taught us to inject the power of sacred faith into it, saying that it can bring blessings to the wearer and resolve some troublesome dangers."

Sean spread out his palms, and a string of silver cross pendants fell into his hands.

"Happy birthday, Sean. Hope it brings you some blessings."

Sean didn't show too much expression, and put the cross into his breast pocket in a little silence.

In the courtyard, a group of people talked and laughed around the cream cake, while Parker sat alone under the tree with his head hunched.

He came out of the professor's alchemy room after hearing that today was the idol's birthday, and followed Stephen here.

In fact, before coming here, he had already considered a lot of ideas to celebrate his idol, but when he arrived at the destination and saw so many strange faces in fancy clothes, he was involuntarily timid and silent.

It's different from what I imagined, except for senior Stephen, the idol's friends are all glamorous characters that are completely different from him.

He was already wearing his best suit, but standing with those people, he didn't seem to stand out as brightly as their oiled uppers.

Yes, everything around him makes him feel inferior.Not only is it a matter of inferiority complex, but the key point is that he is not as thick-skinned as Senior Stephen and can blend into it as if nothing had happened.

So he could only stay alone in the corner and listen to the commotion over there, wishing that he could muster up some courage like a grown man.

"Please, Parker, cheer up. It's already here, at least give him the things before leaving..." Parker held the back of his head with his hands, and muttered to himself decadently.

"Parker..." Someone called him softly.

Parker's shoulders trembled, and he raised his head suddenly, "Sean..."

"Why are you sitting here alone?"

"I...I..." Parker's eyes wandered from side to side, "I don't know how to get along with too many people, because I don't know what to say, and I don't know each other well."

Parker answered truthfully, he had thought about making up a decent reason, but when he opened his mouth, his mind went blank because he was too nervous.

What the hell is he doing?It was too dark to say.Idols will think he's a weirdo who doesn't fit in.Parker's heart has begun to despair.

A slender and clean hand stretched out in front of him.

"I was negligent, Parker. Let's go, I'll take you to get to know them." Sean pulled the curled up boy from the ground.

"Take me?" Parker was shocked, his eyes fixed on the part where the skin of the two touched.

It was like a dream.Although it was only two seconds, he actually held hands with his idol? !

"Don't worry, they are easy to get along with, not the kind of nobles whose value is judged by their origin."

Sean comforted him gently, and led Parker to the lively crowd. Before he could speak, Irene, with cream on her face, pointed at Parker first.

"Hi, I know you! Parker Veitch! Huh? Have you been here all this time? Are you also a friend of Junior Sean?"

Parker subconsciously took half a step back, shrinking back as if startled by this eccentric senior.

"Parker? Vichy! Ah, I see, isn't it No.3 in the total score this time!"

Fiona clapped her hands and looked at Erics, "What a coincidence, it seems that the top three in the first-year overall list are all gathered together!"

"It's really a coincidence. I also knew Parker before." Erics said to everyone with a smile, "He is Sean's classmate, and he is very talented in alchemy!"

"No, actually I... I'm... compared to Sean..." Suddenly becoming the center of the topic, Parker's face couldn't help but flush.

Everyone looked at him, smiled at him, and talked to him.

Just like the protagonist.

Very comfortable, he has never experienced such a feeling.

Sure enough, after meeting the idol, the light shone into his world.Sure enough, as long as he can stay by his idol's side, he can get the only happiness and satisfaction in this life!

"This is a gift for you!" Taking advantage of the joyful atmosphere, Parker took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to the blond young man with both hands. "I... have been preparing for a long time."

"Thank you, Parker." Sean took the plain envelope with a gentle expression, "I'm very glad to receive your gift, I like it very much."

Seeing the young man smiling politely, Parker's heart almost couldn't take it anymore, and it seemed like a fire was burning in his chest.

His former idol, Kagamemnon, said that learning magic is as important as determination and action in life.Parker felt courageous now.

He is prepared to deal with everything and is ready to express his heart to his idol openly in front of everyone!

"There is a peridot earring in it, which is a work I created when I was 15 years old. It is not an ordinary earring, it can make the sound..."

The audience suddenly fell silent, and everyone stopped communicating at the same moment in a very tacit understanding.Parker opened his mouth halfway, but he didn't dare to continue to speak.

What's going on here?Why did he suddenly become quiet before he finished speaking?Parker raised his head, and suddenly found a black carriage parked near them.

"You look like you're having a good time." Someone said with a chuckle as the car window opened.

The noble silver hair was coated with a layer of cold light under the moonlight, and after seeing the man's face clearly, the fire in Parker's body was also extinguished.
