PS: It's the end of the month, looking eagerly at the liquid in your bags

On the roof, the skylight that had been shattered by the sharp gun had turned into a big hole.

The bright moonlight shone down from there, just covering the two people below.

In the backlight, most of Sardis's face, who lowered his head and looked at the boy in his arms tenderly and hotly, was hidden in the shadows, making it difficult to see the expression on his face at the moment.

His fingers firmly clasped Miya's shoulder.

The warm touch of the skin came from the fingertips, it was so real that Sardis could not help but lose his mind for a moment.

There was silence in the outer hall, as if the time in the entire room had stopped at this moment.

……

That shocking shot was too sudden and violent, even the red-haired phantom thief with keen sense and agility could barely push Mia away in time, and barely avoided it by himself.

He narrowly avoided the terrible blow, but fell from the sky because he had nowhere to stay.

Sidir turned around in the air, barely maintained his balance, and fell to the ground together with the falling wood and gravel.

Staring at the young man who snatched Isaiah from him, his slender phoenix eyes narrowed, revealing a sharp edge.

Almost at the moment of landing, his figure flashed, and in the next second he appeared in front of Sardis.

The dagger in his hand sliced ​​through the moonlight and stabbed towards Sardis' throat.

While stabbing out the dagger with his right hand, his left hand grabbed Miya's forearm from below without any trace.

The shot just now clearly demonstrated the terrifying strength of the young man.

Hidir knew that he was no match for the man, so he had no plans to confront him head-on.

So his purpose was to attract the opponent's attention with an attack, take the opportunity to rescue Isaiah from the opponent, and then run away immediately.

But when Hidir stabbed out with this tricky sword, Sardis, who was standing under the moonlight, remained motionless.

His left hand was still tightly wrapped around Mia, and his right hand was raised abruptly.

Keng!

The hard copper bracelet on Sardis' forearm resisted the stabbed dagger.

The sound of the sword tip cutting on the metal was extremely harsh in the silent room.

Sardis raised his eyes and looked at Shidir fiercely.

There is still a cluster of flames burning in his strange-colored pupils.

But at the moment when he turned from Mia to Shidir, the tenderness in the flames in his eyes instantly disappeared without a trace, replaced by a shocking evil spirit.

Shidir, who met Sardis' eyes, jumped in his heart.

This pair of different pupils—could it be——

The astonishment in his heart made his hand stop for a second, but when he stopped, Sardis swung the dagger away with lightning speed.

Immediately afterwards, Sardis swung his arm directly, and the brass armguard slammed heavily on Hidir's face.

Shidir was horrified.

He quickly jumped back, almost dodging the terrifying blow by a hair.

If the brass armguard hits his face, his nasal bone may be smashed.

Sardis still stood where he was, staring coldly at Shidir with a fierce look in his eyes.

Almost subconsciously, he hugged the young man in his arms tighter, and the fingers that clasped Mia's shoulders so hard that there were already bruises on his fair skin.

"Wait a minute, Sadie, he's not... um!"

Just as Mia was about to say that Sidir was not an enemy, she suddenly felt a pain in her shoulder.

The pain as if his shoulder bones were about to be crushed made him groan.

Mia's muffled hum, which was obviously full of pain, made Faer, who was about to go up to confront Shidir, look back subconsciously. When his gaze fell on Mia's shoulder, he frowned.

"Your Highness, please let go!"

He turned around and walked quickly towards Sardis, while speaking, he stretched out his hand in the direction of Mia's shoulder.

Faer's original intention was to break away Sardis's hand, but his action made Sardis's eyes twitch, and the fierceness in his eyes instantly rose wildly.

Without saying a word, he raised his hand and punched him fiercely.

The air-piercing punch suddenly struck, and Faer, who was so focused on Mia, was caught off guard. He could only raise his hand before haste, crossed his arms in front of him, and received the punch forcefully.

Severe pain came from his arm, he raised his eyes to see the sinister look in Sardis's eyes as if he didn't know him, he was startled, and suddenly felt something was wrong.

But before he could recover, Sardis bent his arm and hit Faer's chest heavily with his elbow.

Faer, who was hit hard in the chest, let out a muffled grunt, and staggered back a step.

... don't even think about it.

No one can take Mia away again!

It was hard for him to snatch him back.

He will never allow anyone to take him away again!

Sardis stared at the guys who tried to take away the treasures in his arms one by one, and the strange eyes flashed fiercely.

At this moment, he looked like a male lion defending his territory, his golden mane was blown off, and the roots stood up, his aura was even more frightening to the extreme.

Killing intent burst out from his eyes, and hostility raged endlessly in his pupils like a tornado.

It was like a wild beast that was completely out of control and would choose to eat someone in the next second.

Seeing that he raised his hand and swung another fist at Faer——

"Enough! Sardis!"

Mia reached out and grabbed Sardis' wrist, and stopped loudly.

The fist that was about to hit Faer's face froze in mid-air, Sardis turned his head and looked at Mia blankly.

His lips pursed little by little.

The fine blond hair was scattered in front of his eyes, and the shadow of the fine hair swayed slightly in his pupils.

The ferocious aura all over his body disappeared completely, and he looked at Miya with a look of helplessness besides being dazed.

Just a moment ago, he was a fierce lion who chose to eat people, but now he became a big cat abandoned by his beloved owner.

Although he still pursed his lips and tried his best to maintain his haughty appearance, what was hidden under his haughty posture was a trace of fragility hidden in his eyes that fixedly looked at Mia.

"...you murdered me."

Sardis pursed his lips tightly, and forced a few words from between his lips.

His voice was deep and cold, and he seemed extremely displeased, but there was an inexplicable feeling of grievance.

"Uh?"

Sardis stared straight at Mia, and suddenly raised his hand, pointing his finger at Faer and Shidir opposite.

He seemed to be accusing, with a vicious look on his face, but he said loudly with unconcealable grievances: "Even in my dream, you still want to kill me for others!"

Mia: "..."

Fael pointed at: "..."

Hidir who was also pointed at: "..."

Mia didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he raised his hands to hold Sardis's face, and looked carefully.

"What dream... I said, you are still drunk, right?"

Sardis, whose face was being held by Mia, tilted his head to look at Mia, his eyes were no longer fierce, and his eyes were misty, with a trance of drunkenness, like a child who just woke up, but he still let him go. People think it's kind of cute.

Even though the fog was hazy, Mia's figure was still deeply reflected in those pupils.

"Well, drunk." He looked at the young man in front of him without blinking, almost greedily, and said, "If you're not drunk... how could you dream of you?"

Mia was about to speak when hurried footsteps came from outside, accompanied by anxious shouts.

"Your Highness—"

"Your Excellency Faer! Has something happened inside?"

The spear thrown by Sardis blasted a big hole in the roof.

The guards outside were not blind, how could they not see such a big movement, after recovering from their astonishment, they rushed in from the outside immediately.

Looking at the drunken Sardis with his head tilted, thinking of his appearance being seen by his subordinates, Mia felt a thrill in her heart, and hurriedly pushed him into the bedroom, turning her head and explaining to Faer as she walked. .

"Faer, you go and solve it. Also, the red-haired guy is my friend, you can ask him directly about the specific situation."

After explaining this side, Mia looked at Shidir again.

"Xidil, Faer is my subordinate. In short, if you have any questions, you should go to him first."

The red-haired Phantom Thief, whose eyes were full of anger not long ago, returned to his usual laid-back demeanor at this moment, raising his hand and waving at Mia casually.

That means, I get it, it's up to you.

Seeing Mia push Sardis into the bedroom, he touched his nose and thought, so this guy is the Persian cat from back then.

No wonder he didn't recognize it. Compared with Mia, this guy has changed too much.

Faer over there dealt with the guards and let the guards back out again.

Then, he turned to Shidir expressionlessly.

Sidir leaned on a stone pillar with his arms folded and looked at him with a smile.

The two people's equally unkind eyes collided in the air.

For a moment, there seemed to be invisible sparks splashing in the air.

…………

Mia pushed Sardis into the bedroom and then to the bed.

Sardis didn't resist, and obediently let him push him away. When he got to the bed, Mia asked him to go up, and he obediently got on the bed again.

He was sitting by the bed, his eyes were still hazy, like dusty gemstones.

Seeing her shadow in his eyes, Mia suddenly realized that she still looked disheveled, so she quickly pulled up her skirt and tidied it up.

Sardis kept his head up, looked at Mia without blinking, and sat obediently without moving.

That rare and extremely well-behaved appearance made Mia couldn't help touching that golden hair.

As if feeling the warmth of Mia's palm, Sardis narrowed his eyes slightly.

He actively raised his head, and rubbed his cheek against Mia's palm affectionately.

It looked very much like a big cat that was acting like a baby to its owner.

The imposing and domineering big cat in the past suddenly changed his normal state, and took the initiative to come over to act cute and coquettish, which made people's hearts soften all of a sudden.

Mia looked at Sardis's foggy eyes due to drunkenness, and sighed helplessly.

"You can't talk like this... Forget it, you'd better sleep first."

"Mia."

Without answering, Sardis just called Mia's name in a low voice.

again and again.

"Mia..."

The voice was very low and light, as if worried that if the voice was a little louder, the dream would be shattered.

His eyes seemed to have never blinked from the moment he saw Mia, as if he was afraid that if he blinked, this person who finally came to his dream would disappear before his eyes.

Mia hummed, and touched Sardis' face again.

"Sleep first, I'm here."

Sardis looked at him and asked dissatisfiedly: "Why in my dream, you still want to kill me for others?"

Mia: "..."

He couldn't laugh or cry, he could only coax this drunk guy like a child.

"Okay, okay, I will never kill you for others in your dreams again."

Sardis frowned and pondered for a while, then raised his chin and said, "Forget it, I will allow you to kill me in my dream."

Mia: "...That's really true, thank you."

Sardis raised his hand, covered Mia's hand caressing his cheek with his palm, and held it.

"It's so warm..." he whispered, "like you're really still there..."

Mia was startled, and then heard Sardis continue to speak.

"Mia, do you know? I have dreamed many, many times... dreaming of you..."

"In every dream, I can't catch you."

"Every time, I can only watch you fall from the cliff... No matter how I reach out, I can't catch you..."

"again and again……"

The slender eyelashes hang down, faintly, casting deep shadows on the bottom of the eyes.

His voice seemed to be stepping on the tip of a knife, and the knife was stabbed one after another, blood dripping from the stabbing, and every bit of it was a trace of pain.

"Later, I heard people say that as long as you are drunk, you can dream what you want."

"But I had to fight a while ago, fighting against King David and those Ston people. At that time, I couldn't drink or get drunk."

He murmured, rubbing Mia's palm affectionately.

"... Well, I drank a lot of wine just now, so even if I dreamed about those guys who wanted to snatch you... But, I snatched you back... and drove them all away..."

"I caught you in my dream for the first time."

"Mia..."

Sardis called the name softly.

He raised his head and stared blankly at Mia for a while.

Then, he stretched out his hands and gently wrapped his arms around Mia's waist standing in front of him.

He leaned forward with his upper body and buried his face in the boy's chest.

"Mia..."

"I listened to you and did not hurt Princess Opelila."

"I was thinking of you, so I didn't kill King David."

"As long as you say it, I will do it."

"...Mia..."

The low whisper stopped abruptly at this moment.

Sardis was silent for a long time.

After a long time, he spoke softly.

"I'd love to see you," he said.

There was a low, inaudible sound.

Almost like praying.

This may be the first time he uttered the words of prayer in his life.

I really want to see you.

……

…………

There was silence in the bedroom, and the boy didn't speak a word.

He just stretched out his arms and hugged the person in his arms tenderly.

He just lowered his head and kissed the golden hair in his arms.
