The Duke in the Spire of Thorns

Just when the mermaid raised her jaw and was about to sing, Celeste woke up.

He opened his eyes with a calm expression.He has been dreaming for so long, and now he can control his emotions very well.

He once saw "himself" looking in the mirror in a dream, and in the somewhat blurred mirror, what was reflected was a face that was almost indistinguishable from his own.

The "self" in the dream is very similar to him, with the same facial features, and the same prominent background. The slight difference is probably that the "self" in the dream is in good health and has a beautiful younger sister by the way.

Celeste is an only child, but in fact he really wants a younger brother or younger sister. He used to be in poor health and worried that he would leave before his parents. If there is another younger brother or younger sister, at least he can worry less.

He was leaning against the head of the bed with the soft silk in his arms, and the thoughts in his mind were somewhat complicated.

Not long after, the bedroom door was politely knocked three times, the heavy wooden door opened silently, and Escrit walked in pushing the dining car.

Under Escrit's dedicated service, Celeste quickly got dressed. He casually enjoyed his breakfast, put aside the illusory dream of last night in his mind, and began to think about what happened in the real world.

——Escrit is going to explain to him what happened in the Oss Empire today.

Celeste took the opportunity of sipping black tea to secretly look up at Escrit, the expression on his face was very calm, as if he had forgotten what happened last night, with a decent smile on his face, his face belonged to The beauty in the human realm has nothing to do with the monstrous sea elf in Celeste's dream.

If you can choose, His Excellency the Duke will choose Escrit in mermaid form without hesitation. There are only a few ways to enjoy yourself, and Celeste has already tried them all.He often feels bored and wants to give himself something exciting.

Mermaids are exciting and easy to control.

Celeste put down the teacup in his hand.

"Can we continue our conversation from last night?"

After a while of silence, Escrito spoke first. He walked up to Celeste and half-knelt down, using the familiar gesture of submission they had used to.

Celeste stretched out his hand to play with his chin, and said casually: "Go ahead."

He looked careless, but in fact he had concentrated all his attention on his ears.

Then, he heard a less vivid story:

King Os had a serious illness a few months ago. In order to cure him, the doctors put leeches on his forehead to suck blood, shaved off all the hair of King Os, and restricted his diet to one meal a day. Blood was drawn every three days.The doctors tried their best to treat him, but the king's condition was deteriorating. Just when King Os was about to die, a priest came to the palace. Merciful Lord of all".

Under the threat of death, King Oss became the most devout believer of the "Merciful Lord of All" within an hour.He was rewarded richly, and the next morning, he was full of energy and appeared in front of everyone with shining eyes.

In the face of such a vivid example, all the insiders seemed to have gone mad, and quickly betrayed their original gods. It didn't take long for almost all the nobles to become believers in the "Lord of All Things".

"...but actually, that priest is a wizard."

"He told those nobles that only long-term devout prayers can get the mercy of the Lord, so those nobles almost gave up all social activities, and knelt in front of the gods all day long, and as time went by, some of them did get For the benefit, the one who knelt for the longest time was a lady who was nearly forty years old, and now she has become more youthful and beautiful than a 16-year-old girl. Such an obvious change made the nobles who are afraid of death even more crazy. "

"But the country still needs to be maintained, and some occasions have to be attended. Therefore, the pastor proposed that as long as one piously donates a precious item, the gods will make that item incarnate into their appearance and handle the world for them. cumbersome things."

"That's what you saw yesterday."

"Puppet?"

The word appeared in Celeste's mind instantly, and he always felt as if he remembered something, but those images flashed too fast, and he didn't catch them.

But he didn't care, he played with Escrit's jaw, thinking that Escrit hadn't mentioned his part in the story at all.

Generally speaking, when people tell about their own personal experience or things they have discovered, even if they deliberately tell it as a story, they will unconsciously add their own subjective views.But just now Escrit seemed to read a story from a storybook, there was no mood swings at all, let alone opinions.

—he didn't even mention his own part in the story.

Oh, what a cunning.

Celeste thought so in his heart, but he didn't ask. He suddenly remembered the mermaid in his dream, let go of the hand holding Escrit's chin, and said lazily: "What a lively and interesting mermaid. story, dear."

"Sing a song for me."

Escrito didn't seem to expect that Celeste would make this request, and he seemed taken aback.But soon, he replied docilely: "Okay, what do you want to hear?"

"Whatever." Celeste thought on a whim, "You can just come up with what you know."

Then Escrit thought for a while and began to sing.

Strictly speaking, what he sang is not a song, but a certain solo by the leading actor in the opera. Celeste vaguely remembers this opera. He has seen too many operas. Although he has an impression, he will also miss it for a while Can't get up.

He didn't think about it at all, and listened to Escrit's solo seriously.

Escrit's voice is very good, it is a very pleasant bass, and his control of the tone is also very precise, and the joy of can't wait is also perfectly presented.It can be said that if he is willing to apply for a job in the theater, then he can get the position of male lead singer as long as he asks.

——The general idea of ​​the lyrics of this song is: the hero and heroine have gone through all kinds of difficulties and dangers, and finally they are going to conclude a marriage under the blessing of relatives and friends. The hero is very happy, and on the night before the wedding, he confides to the bright moon his thoughts.

Celeste knew that Escrit would not sing so obediently, but he didn't dislike it too much. After all, he was a little proud in his heart-it feels so good to be loved, if you happen to like it a little The person who loves you will feel even better when facing his flattery.

Celeste was only willing to admit that he liked Escrilt a little bit, and the relationship between the two was very ambiguous, so he didn't hesitate much. After Escrilt finished his singing, Celeste She bent down and gave him a kiss without hesitation:

"It's a good song."

He kissed Escrit, but didn't smile, making what should have been a sweet kiss feel like a forced routine.
