[Angie] Double Wings

Chapter 061 ◇The Gap That Shouldn't Exist

◇

As soon as Donald left, Jules pressed the communicator and ordered, "Let the troops ordering supplies move faster, and the whole army must start as scheduled in 15 minutes, don't delay, delay the time... Clavis?"

When he gave the order, Cleves dropped him abnormally, and got into the trailer alone, his steps even seemed hurried.

Jules listened absently to his subordinate's answer, with hundreds of question marks in his stomach revolving around Kravis.He endured it for a while, and finally couldn't bear it any longer, "I'll talk about it later, I'm busy right now." He quickly followed into the carriage.

Turning around the first car where the military meeting was held, Clavis was standing tall in front of Jules' desk in the second car, turning towards him, also holding a communicator in his hand.

"Really? Well... I see." He said and closed the call.

"What's the matter?" Jules locked the door of the carriage with his backhand, and asked in a low voice to Clavis, who had a strange expression on his face.The latter smiled at him contemptuously, making an expression he couldn't understand.Jules frowned, "Cravis?"

"Medical supplies are, of course, supplies...that is, things that the Self-Defense Forces'Material Support Force' can approach..."

"……what are you saying?"

Clavis didn't have the time to answer, and pressed another button on the communication device, "For me, tell the commander of the Night Owl Troop, Xuan. Just send this recording to him. Just say that I, Clavis, officially canceled the call." An order to him... From now on, I want half of the Night Owl troop to guard Saint Lumiere, the patron saint of water. As long as Lumiere is not in Jules' trailer, the Night Owl troop must be on duty day and night. Keep protecting his safety..." Clewis then explained what happened, Jules didn't listen at all, just stared at his lover's worried face, wishing to give him a punch.

When Clavis finally finished his lengthy, long-winded, and detailed instructions, and put down the communicator, he saw Jules' tense face filled with anger that had failed to hide, and he deliberately did not look at him unnaturally. to him.

"Julius?"

He ignored it, sat in his seat and sorted out several different types of reports, pretending to be busy.

Klevis chuckled, reached out and pressed the back of Jules' hand, "Ignore me...do you want me?" The man with a stiff face pursed his lips tightly, lowered his eyes, and his neck seemed to be cramping It seems to be swaying from side to side, and Clewis can barely see that it is probably a shaking of the head, and he can't help but want to laugh, "Eating dry jealousy? Boring."

"...I'm bored, stay away from me."

The smile on Kravis's face deepened, "Julies... Lumière is not Oscar..." Neither of them ever worried that Oscar would be assassinated by Donald's men.In this universe, there are only a handful of people who can defeat Oscar alone. To assassinate Oscar is like finding a more roundabout way to commit suicide... Oscar, who is on high alert, will kill people if he makes a move.But Lumiere is not Oscar, "If someone actually shoots him, things will be bad. I'm not nervous."

"...Why do you explain?"

"Because you're jealous."

Jules didn't speak, and Cleves didn't talk to him, just walked over and leaned over to him.Jules hesitated for a moment, but at the moment before the two were about to kiss, he said reluctantly, "Come over without even asking..."

Kravis asked angrily, "...can I kiss you?"

"I……"

"If you have the ability, you can say no."

"You, you... why are you losing your temper when you're like that?"

"Which? Being too kind to Lumiere?" Clevers sneered repeatedly, "I just don't care about you, Jules. Don't think I don't know anything... You have something to hide from me, right?"

Jules widened his eyes, "What am I hiding from you?"

Does he really not know?Or play dumb? "What happened to the oath of loyalty you made with Oscar two years ago?"

"...I am his leader, what's wrong with him swearing loyalty to me?"

"Shouldn't you be loyal to His Majesty?"

"Two years ago... How many times do you think he met the former Her Majesty the Queen?"

Cleves was at a loss for words for a moment, unable to answer.Jules shook his head, "Cravis...have you been minding this?"

"...I knew about this before, but I didn't know the content of the oath of loyalty until recently." Clavis was jealous, and the car was filled with a sour smell, "As long as you are all alive, he can find you at any time... ..."

"You're talking the other way around. I can find him at any time... It's not right, I can issue orders to him, but I may not be able to find him."

It's not a good thing to be ordered by Jules, "...Is that so?"

"...The party taking the oath relies on the indelible loyalty in his heart, so that he can ignore any obstacles, and he can hear the order of the party receiving the oath at the most urgent moment no matter where he is. Strictly speaking, the 'Oath of Loyalty' is... Jules blushed, "It's for me to call for help in the most urgent time... It's for protecting me. Although I don't need it."

After hearing the detailed explanation, Cleves' anger subsided.He agrees with this very much... Jules has always been brave, and it is not a bad thing to leave a way out.He just didn't want Oscar to get too close to Jules, so close that he could become a unique and special existence in this universe...

"You just don't come to ask me, just think about it yourself." Jules pointed to the aquamarine brooch on his chest, "What I can find anytime is your crystal ball, not Oscar."

Clavis softened his attitude a bit, "The matter of Lumiere... If the enemy is targeting you, you can fight back... If it were me, I would still block it anyway. If it was Lumiere, maybe you wouldn't even be able to escape..."

"I'll find an excuse to send those people away again."

"Kicked off, and came again every two days."

"I will take the bottom line and attack the Supreme Council directly..." Jules asked immediately, "Are you so nervous that you can't even trust my ability?"

"It was you who said that the Night Owl troops could be used by me. If the enemy sneaks up on Lumière... you will blame yourself again."

There is no need to give such detailed instructions... Jules lowered his head, pretending to be indifferent, and only heard Kravis's rare and patient explanation in his ears, "You know what I was like before, Don't hide it from you. Lumière and I have always been close..." In the past, although not driven crazy, Clavis has always been a bit withdrawn.Lumiere is the only person who can get close to him, and it is also the only channel for him to communicate with the normal world, "I am afraid that something happened to him is true. But, you... Jules, do you still want to listen to my feelings for you?" Shall I say it again myself?"

"...No need, the more you listen, the more disgusting you will be."

Clavis laughed and leaned over silently.Jules hesitated for a moment, then stretched out his hand to stop him, avoiding the kiss.

"You rejected me again."

"I, I just..." Jules forced a smile, looking at his hand on Clavis, "I'm still working, and I still have a lot to do..." He brushed Clay away Weiss' long hair hanging in front of him, "Let me comb your hair tomorrow morning? I promised a long time ago, but I didn't keep my promise."

"Your hands are uncomfortable...are they still numb today?"

Jules didn't answer the question directly, "But I want to comb your hair for you."

◇

Lovers have said so coquettishly, of course Cleves has no ability to refuse...he can't resist.

Early in the morning, they start this tiring exercise.

"Are your hands sore?"

Jules looked up at Clevice who was sitting on the edge of the upper bunk, "Be careful, don't hit the roof of the car. It really took a long time..."

"If you leave it alone, it will grow... I didn't leave it on purpose."

"It's better to cut it shorter," Jules pointed to his back, "it's almost like this." Jules himself also has long hair, and his curly golden hair ends in the middle of his back, all straightened, it should be Can touch the waistline.But it looked so short in front of Clevice's long hair...they were about the same height, and Clavis's black hair was straight up to his knees, and the bottom edge touched his calf.

"Cut like this, don't you call it a little?"

After keeping it for so long, you probably don't want to cut it?Jules didn't insist, but just teased him, "It should be inconvenient to stay for such a long time? I always feel that accidents are easy to happen..."

Cleves picked up a lock of long hair and gestured on his neck, "For example, being caught in a window frame, accidentally strangling yourself to death or something stupid accident?"

A rare sense of humor... Jules was amused by him, put his arms around Clavis' neck, and he also bent down with difficulty to kiss him, the atmosphere was just right.But the moment before their lips met, Jules felt unnaturally stiff, and Clavis froze immediately, raised his head, and looked at him from a distance that shouldn't exist at all.

The scene where I tried to kiss Jules twice in a row yesterday, but was rejected by him, is now very vividly replaying in Kravis's mind... I thought it was just because he had a little jealousy, childishly I'm arguing... Klevis stared at the slightly parted lips on Jules' astonished face, and actually felt a sense of farewell in his heart... Was the last time I kissed him the last time?

They are rusty.

It shouldn't be like this... Every cell in Jules' body tensed up, and he wanted to say something, "I..." Then he was interrupted lightly by Cleves.

He raised his hand and took Jules' arm around his neck, his tone was steady but a little cold, "I might still have to mobilize the night owl troops for a while, can I?"

Hearing about work, the workaholic Jules, who had been restrained for a long time, didn't even think about it, and immediately entered the situation, "No problem. Anyway, the preparation of the Snowy Owl troops has been completed, and I still have manpower."

"understood."

Clavis swept his hair and jumped off the upper bunk.Only then did Jules come back to his senses, and said with difficulty, "I haven't finished combing yet..."

"Don't force it." Clewis stretched out his hand to take the comb in Jules' hand. He didn't want to give it to him at first, but he always felt that it was ugly for two big men to snatch it back and forth, so he finally let go.Klevis threw the comb on the bedside cabinet, held back a sigh, and said lightly, "Julies, I just don't want to force you."

He really didn't know what to say to Cleves.The door leading to his heart was opened by the two of them with great difficulty.He didn't want Kravis to close himself again, but he didn't know how to eliminate the barrier that shouldn't exist.

The sound of knocking on the door broke the silence between them, and Clavis opened the door of the berth. Outside the door, Oscar raised his eyebrows at them cheerfully, "Master Jules arrived later than me, this is big news Ah." Sensing Jules' unnatural expression, "Are you not feeling well? Please rest today? I will report the current situation to you later."

"No, wait for me." Jules slid his cuffs flat with his hands, and buttoned the gold silk bracelet he brought to tie his sleeves. "What's the status of the current report?"

"There is no unexpected situation. There are two troops that are slightly delayed, which is due to weather problems. In addition, the former commander of the White Wing Corps, Immer, has requested to meet with you."

"I see."

The corridor was narrow, Oscar exited the berth first, Jules followed behind and was about to leave, when he suddenly looked back.Kravis sat in front of his crystal ball, his hands peacefully resting on his lap, his deep eyes staring at him.

They looked at each other in silence for a while, before Cleves finally told him with the lip language he had missed for a long time, 'have breakfast. Jules nodded at him, smiled softly, turned and walked out.
