The duke was serious indeed.

When the evening glow dissipates, the night sky is filled with stars.

He and Andy left the mansion with their cloaks on, and came to the beach where the sea breeze was blowing. The dark blue coastline stretched into the distance like an iron snake. The ship left the port and sailed into the sea, turning into a small black spot.

He couldn't help getting closer. Andy didn't wear a hood, and his hair was scattered behind his back. He probably had just washed it. The wet curls were dripping with water, giving off a slight chill.

Those unspoken words during the day seem to be able to be asked through the night.

Austin tilted his head and felt a little difficult to breathe.

"Is it here?"

Andy stopped, folded his arms and asked him with his eyes. Austin responded lightly, and turned his eyes to the sea. He watched for a while, and the dark blue waves on the calm sea were churning. After a while, he was covered in moonlight. The beautiful merman drilled out of the water, pushed the huge pearl oyster, and pushed it to the shore with difficulty.

The Duke took off his hood, nodded, and the long-haired mermaids slapped the waves and waved at him. They have a cooperative relationship with Austin, and Austin was the first to establish a long-term trade relationship with them, and provided Patronage of nobles.

Andy pushed the hat, obviously hesitant, so Austin became nervous, he felt that he couldn't wait any longer, he needed an answer.

"Are you scared?" Austin asked softly.

Andy snorted and raised his eyebrows slightly: "There are no sailors who are afraid of the ocean." After speaking, he couldn't help laughing: "I'm just afraid that you want to sink me into the sea."

Austin couldn't help frowning, compared to the gloomy face that had been silent for the whole afternoon, now he can finally face Andy freely, his tone is low and full of emotion: "Andy, you know I won't do this, you Is my friend."

The moonlight was too bright, showing the subtle expressions on the Duke's face without any concealment. Andy was confused for a while, looked at those emerald green eyes for a while, turned his eyes away, and said, "Well, I shouldn't That said, I'm just a little nervous, you know, dragons fighting, it's not a good thing, I don't see why we have to watch it."

Austin's emerald green eyes looked at Andy without blinking. Andy thought he would be silent, but he didn't expect him to answer. The Duke was serious, even too serious: "If you want to hear the truth that is difficult to see directly, or Covered falsehood."

Andy was silent for a while, Austin took a quick breath, as if he was too nervous, he continued: "I thought you wouldn't agree, you know, watching two ancient creatures fight, it's nothing Good excuse, but I couldn't think of a better one at the time."

He took a step forward and stood in front of Andy, blocking a small patch of moonlight in front of him.

"So, are you willing to promise me, does it mean that you are willing to..." He chewed the remaining half of the sentence between his lips and teeth, and it turned into a sigh, soft and vague raving, and Andy couldn't hear it clearly.

"What." Andy said dryly.

Austin bent slightly and held Andy's hand: "I know this may be very sudden and unexplainable. You will hate me, despise me, and curse my dirty and sinful soul. I can't even convince myself , but I do love you."

"I don't know why it came about, but trust me, I'm not stupid, I know exactly where this longing comes from, I know what I'm talking about, I love you, it's urging me I can't let you be free, so I follow my heart and tell you that it is not as heavy as mountains or seas. I love you like a light feather. Every look and smile of yours is like the breeze blowing on your face. I love you because of your little move. Jumping for joy, weeping for sorrow, I..."

"Austin." Andy suddenly interrupted him without even pulling his hand back: "Are you reciting lines?"

The Duke had a cold face, he looked extremely sad, his emerald green eyes were wet, he was a little flustered, and then he said in self-defeating, "Sorry, I... can't find better words, I..."

He originally wanted to say, I can't tell you how I really feel, it's too short, and I don't believe that such a short sentence is enough to move you, I don't know if you need me as much as I need you, I look forward to your response and cannot force your feelings.

Austin wanted to say too much, but his words were too short.

Andy twitched the corners of his mouth, but couldn't find a suitable topic for a while,

So he simply jumped into the shell, the pearl clam shook slightly, and the mermaids dived into the bottom of the sea, after a while, the clam shell began to move slowly.

Austin was led by him to take a step forward, and walked into the shell in a daze. Andy looked at the front intently, and so did the Duke. The waves came in layers and turned into white foam. singing.

Andy originally planned to leave Themis completely with this reward after tonight.

Andy didn't have much resentment, he didn't adapt to the current life, a little uncomfortable because of Austin, but only a little, not enough to change his mind.

That guy is an aristocrat, and he has inherited the title. No one can make things difficult for him. Andy thinks about it, but he doesn't know what to leave behind. The farewell hug is too rustic, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't fit the high-ranking duke.

He is just a mud-legged man from the countryside. Although he pretends to be a nobleman, he has no self-cultivation after all. He feels that his existence does not mean much to Austin, so Andy persuades himself not to take this parting as a mistake. thing.

But that doesn't seem to be the case now.

Austin has always been very quiet. Most of the time he would fall silent around Andy, but his emotions were different. This time Andy couldn't tell what he was thinking.

About an hour later, they saw a small isolated island not far away.

The clam shell stopped not far away, and not long after, the surrounding winds gradually picked up, stirring up huge waves.

In the area where Andy and the Duke are located, the sea is still quiet and gentle, eerily calm.

Suddenly, a dark blue night sky passed a thick shadow, from far to near, Andy's goose bumps all over his arms, and he felt the terrible feeling of soul trembling, his pupils constricted, and his scalp exploded.

The sea waves roared and tore, the rumbling thunder was accompanied by lightning, and a red dragon broke into Andy's field of vision.

Another black dragon flew from a distance. It looked bigger and stronger. Its huge body was like a hill, chasing the red dragon and tearing its wings.

Tick-tock blood fell from the sky into the ocean, and the crazily biting and fighting dragon brought more and more fierce lightning and huge waves.

Intense fear captured Andy's heart and soul, and cold sweat permeated his back. His face was pale, his lips trembling and he couldn't say a word.

A pair of hands grabbed Andy's palm.

"Don't be afraid."

Austin's complexion was as usual, and his emerald green eyes were extremely calm.

"Why... came to see this."

Austin smiled, the corners of his slightly drawn mouth softened his entire face, and wet tides appeared in those emerald green eyes, madness and calm flashed alternately in his eyes: "A man cannot lie in front of a dragon, my Retaining may not move you, but I want to use this to tell you that I love you, and please believe that every word I say comes from the heart, and the dragon testifies."

Austin lowered his eyes, looked at Andy's tangled face, and asked his own question: "So, I want to know, do you hate me? Do you... like me?"

Andy's face was extremely pale, and he tried hard to suppress it, but in front of the two dragons, he couldn't lie, and he couldn't restrain his mouth. He was almost desperate to hear his affirmative voice: "I don't fucking hate you, Don't hate your kisses either, I've even fucking thought if you weren't a duke but a miller's daughter I thought I might marry you."
