third wish

The people in the dormitory also thought that Eden was dumb, because he never talked to others, and he was unwilling to communicate with his roommates. Most of the time, he would find a dark corner in the courtyard by himself, and sit for a whole day.

But the black cat likes places with the sun, and lies on Eden's lap with its soft belly turned out to bask in the sun.Because of this, Eden was forced to move his position to the slide in the open space.

But there are always some guys who can't understand the new "dumb".

There is a thorn in the yard named Yuer, and Eden's roommate named Edgar is also known as the two bullies of the Allen Orphanage.Different from Edgar's pretty face, Yuer is a fat man who is five big and three thick, with brown curly hair, which is messy on the top of his head all the year round.According to their private rules, the new children in the orphanage have to pay tribute to the two "bosses" for snacks every day, so that they can integrate into the circle of the two gangs.

When Yule found Eden with a group of unkind boys, Eden was leaning on the slide, and the black cat poked out its fluffy head from his white shirt, nestling on Eden's chest , comfortably enjoy its afternoon time.

"Are you the new mute?" A muffled voice came from above his head.

The black cat frowned and meowed in dissatisfaction.Damn it, who dares to block the sun of his uncle cat!

Eden squinted his eyes hurt by the sun, and slowly raised his head. Before he could move, he was kicked hard on the right waist and fell on the gravel beside him.

The black cat jumped out from his chest, bared its teeth and bared its fangs towards the group of people. The wings on his back soared several times, and the sharp feather blade was about to touch Yuer's fragile throat.

"Azrael..." A cold voice behind him coughed twice.

The black cat's movements paused, curled its lips, retracted its wings, and fluttered back to Eden's shoulders.

"Hey." Someone in the group whistled, "So you're not a mute."

The crowd burst into laughter, and words of naked desire without any concealment reached Eden's ears.

"It's fine if you're not dumb. It would be so boring if you don't make a sound after a while."

"Speak, can't you? Could it be that you are a boy pretending to be a girl, so you dare not speak?"

"Is it a girl, take a look at the pants, and you will know."

"Good idea, Hill, this time you fucking kick my leg! Damn, that idiot kicked me last time, and it still hurts now."

"..."

Several boys eagerly stared at this overly thin boy. This newcomer was really handsome. Except for the boss of the second class, they had never seen such an energetic boy.

That beautiful silver hair, the cold and alienated facial features, the slender ankles, seem to be able to be held by one hand, if it is let it hang weakly on the shoulders...all of these are stimulating the agitation of these boys in adolescence hormones.

The girls are well protected by the dean, no one dares to provoke them easily.But the boys are different, who doesn't have a few wounds when they fight, Miss Beta doesn't care about these at all.

The black cat sneered, and involuntarily licked its protruding fangs.The fur on his body slowly turned into a crowd of eyes, and the scarlet eyeballs were motionless and greedily staring at this group of lively and beating lives.

For Azrael, the angel of death who feeds on death, nothing is more attractive to him than the young and fresh life, when they slowly struggle and see their own life slowly flow through the blood The fear is like adding the most perfect ingredients to this delicious "sashimi".

Every soul that passes away will become the nourishment of the tree of death, turning into a yellowed leaf for the god of death to enjoy wantonly before welcoming a new journey.

However, these delicious souls seem to have some more important functions at this time...

"You seem to be in trouble, kid." The black cat leaned close to Eden's ear kindly, and breathed out ambiguously, "Do you want to make your second wish? I can do it for you with just one word." Get rid of them all, meow~"

"As I said, I have no wish." Eden's voice did not fluctuate.

The black cat jumped off his shoulder angrily, crouched condescendingly on the slide, and made up its mind to watch from the sidelines this time.

Damn humans... are really blunt and hypocritical! !

A few anxious boys had already walked over. Eden raised his chin slightly and looked at them indifferently. The boys who looked at the beautiful neckline felt even more itchy.

"What wish? Serve my good brothers, and get you whatever you want, hahaha!"

"Tsk tsk, yes, it's my favorite style!"

"Hey, this face looks like a woman, but it's more exciting than the last time."

"It's all nonsense, let me hold it down-ahhh! Damn it! Let go!!"

Before the leading boss could finish his sentence, the seemingly weak boy suddenly jumped up, knocked the strong boss to the ground, and bit the boss's side neck tightly with his mouth open.

The rest of the boys were dumbfounded, no one expected that this dodder-like boy would be so decisive.Blood dripped down Yuer's neck, and Yuer's cry became more tragic than that, and the other teenagers came back to their senses and stepped forward to pull the two of them away.

Eden's lips were stained with blood, and his eyes were cold and frightening.His two arms were pulled up, and his head was pressed heavily on the slide, but he laughed twice.

"Damn it..." The boss wiped the blood all over his neck, raised his foot and kicked Eden's chest hard, his teeth trembling with anger, "I must kill you today!"

Before he could really feel the pain, the smell of blood surged up from his chest, and then it seemed that something was smashed hard on his head. It didn't hurt, but he was dizzy.

...Anata, was it like this when you died?

His whole body was light and warm, as if he was hugged tightly by a warm embrace, and there was noise in his ears, everything seemed not so unimportant anymore.

One has only a dead soul left, and the other is panting with a soulless body.Compared to being tortured every day, such an ending seems to be pretty good.

Sorry, Anata.Forgive me for not living with your share.

……

When he woke up again, Eden blinked a little uncomfortable.He could feel a dull pain in his head and chest, and his eyes were blinded by the strong sunlight.

"Thank God, you are finally awake, my child." A kind voice came from beside the bed.

Eden tilted his neck with difficulty: "Dean Mapel..."

He is not dead?

His mind was in chaos. He remembered that the gang hit him on the head with a wooden stick. There was blood all over his neck and mouth. He survived? !

And that warm embrace...is it an illusion?It seemed that at the end, there were still angry cat meows and miserable screams in my ears...

"You slept for three whole days, my poor child." The dean sighed softly, "I have understood the matter clearly, and when Yuer and the others come back, I will definitely punish them severely."

Iden's eyeballs moved slightly, because he was not in the courtyard... Was he running away in fear of crime, or had he completely disappeared from this world...

Seeing that Eden was still not in good spirits, Dean Mapel said a few words of concern, and then closed the door to let him sleep for a while.

Eden slowly turned his gaze back, and landed on the puffy Tuanzi sitting cross-legged at the foot of the bed.

"Azrael?" he called hesitantly.

"Humph!"

Hei Tuanzi was not in a good mood, sparks were shining from the horns of the black goat on his head, and his big star-like eyes were staring round and round.

"It's really you..." Eden couldn't help laughing. He didn't expect that this bad-tempered angel was... a little cute.

"You still dare to laugh!" Hei Tuanzi rushed forward, his eyes almost bursting with sparks, "If it wasn't for me, you would already be in hell by now!"

Eden was coughed heavily by him, Hei Tuanzi was stunned, and crawled to the side with his lips pursed, his face still a little worried: "... Is it so difficult for you to make a second wish? I'd rather die than you I don't want to..."

"Ahem..." Iden finally recovered after panting for a few moments, his eyes were still red: "Where did you get Yuer and the others?"

"Dead." Hei Tuanzi paused, rubbing his chubby belly, and said lightly.

Sure enough... Eden slowly closed his eyes, his voice was still a little hoarse, and every time he spoke, he felt a tight pain in his chest.

"Azrael... are these wishes important to you?"

Azrael stared at him with his buttocks.

Is it important?

Of course it is important!A deep hatred instantly ignited from his chest, his fists were tightly clenched, and his teeth were chattering.He is clearly a four-winged angel, but he is forced to do these dirty deeds of the devil, even his most precious feathers...

"...Azrael, you can feel those dirty desires in people's hearts for me." The woman's crazy laughter lingered in his mind.

If it wasn't for that woman... how could he be forced to this extent...

Azrael took a deep breath, and looked at Iden's weak face with burning eyes.

"It's very important. I'm only five thousand wishes away, and I can get rid of this life."

"That's it..." Eden sighed softly, "He is obviously an angel, why do he need to do these things?"

It seems that it should be the job of the devil to seduce people's deepest desires.

Azrael was silent for a long time, until Eden was so drowsy that he almost fell asleep again, he said in a low voice: "It's a curse."

"curse?"

"The devil's curse."

——Azrael, I am willing to curse you at the price of eternal life.

——You will, like me, experience the dirtiest, most unbearable, ugliest, and most primitive desires in the human heart.

—You angels on high, how can you understand these pains?Those despair, pain, unbearable, shouldn't you also taste it!

—Go ahead, Azrael.I will keep my eyes in hell and witness your fall, hahahahahaha.

Eden barely raised his eyes: "What kind of curse?"

Hei Tuanzi didn't speak, but stood up slowly with his back turned to Eden.

It was only then that Eden saw clearly that there were heavy chains wrapped around his body, and some chains had been broken, hanging on his body with clinks.There are four fluttering little wings on the back of Hei Tuanzi, three of which have turned completely black with dried blood on them, and half of the white feathers on the last wing.I don't know if it's Eden's illusion, but the range of Bai Yu seems to be larger than the first time I saw it...

"When all the feathers turn black, I will fall into hell." Hei Tuanzi whispered.

"So you want to pluck out all the blackened feathers?"

"..." Hei Tuanzi was silent for a while, "It's useless, it will grow again."

Every time a human desire is fulfilled, his white feathers will fall off, and black feathers symbolizing evil will soon grow from the bloody wound.

Eden closed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.Azrael pursed his lips, as if he was ashamed of what he said just now, and stepped forward to tuck up the quilt for him without saying a word.

"I've decided on my second wish, Azrael." Suddenly, Eden said.

Azrael's hand tucking the quilt slightly paused: "What?"

"I hope tomorrow will be sunny." Eden slowly opened his eyes, the obsidian-like pupils were so clean that there was no trace of dirt.

"Can you?" He asked softly.

Azrael opened his mouth, and made a difficult voice in his dry throat: "You don't have to..."

"This is my wish." Eden interrupted firmly, "Is it okay?"

"..."

"As you wish, the weather will be fine tomorrow." The hoarse voice finally sounded.

Eden closed his eyes tiredly, with a contented smile on the corner of his mouth.

"It's been raining for too long, it's time for the sun to come out." His voice became weaker and weaker, almost inaudible.

Azrael didn't answer, just put his face lightly on Eden's chest, listening to the beating of that mighty heart, just like when he was a black cat.

The wings were slowly retracted behind him, and the black feathers slowly fell with his movements, and a ray of holy white faintly emerged from the broken wound.
