"I will do my best to make you happy."

I lowered my head and looked at my hands.

When people have not suffered any setbacks, if they want to talk about the happiness they want, it is the first and the best. You want beauty, you want wealth, you want wisdom, you want power, you want to do whatever you want, you want to be unparalleled in the world......

But the more you grow, the more indifferent and scarce the requirements for happiness become, and finally, if you ask an adult who has gone through a lot of ups and downs, are you happy or not, how can you be happy...... The person may tell you the answer, maybe, he will be confused.

I looked at my own hands, which most longed for the happiness of holding them......

Can I really, get it?

Tasha led the palace maids to set the meal, although several people came and went, but no one held their breath and made a sound, not even breathing loudly.

Tasha is afraid, and the palace ladies are afraid. Even if they didn't know who Immorton was, it was the wedding day of me and Memphis, but there was another man sitting in my inner sanctum, and none of them dared to speak out casually.

"Let's eat first."

Tasha brought me the porridge in the bowl.

This is my habit, I eat rice porridge in the morning and evening, and rarely eat bread and cakes.

"Taste it," I said, "this rice porridge is very fragrant." ”

He took the bowl, but he didn't drink it.

"Don't like it?" I look at him.

"No, it's just that I don't need to eat now, and that's okay."

I picked up the other bowl and shook my hand and glanced at Tasha, who was stubbornly kneeling there.

"You get out."

"Your Majesty!"

"It's okay, Tashaf must have known everything before. I was able to return to the sun because of a transaction, and although I am still alive, I will not sleep, I will not eat, I will not even drink, I will not get sick, I will not get hurt......"

I listened to his low, slow voice in a daze, not even knowing that the bowl in my hand was crooked and the porridge had spilled.

"You...... You ......" I couldn't speak, everything he said was beyond my comprehension and cognition.

"My life is stuck in this moment, not forward, not backward......" he said, "until the moment of the end, it will not change." ”

I felt as if my heart was stopping: "The end? When...... End? ”

"Wait until ......" he smiled slightly, a little helpless, a little bitter: "The power to maintain my existence is gone." ”

"The power ......" when it is not there, I can't ask when that is not there. It's the equivalent of asking when he's going to die.

"Don't worry, I think, won't ...... anytime soon"

"You're still lying to me!" I wasn't scared at all by the weird things he said, I just knew that he was going to leave me after all!

"No, Elsis!"

I snapped and opened his hand: "Don't touch me!" ”

He turned his head: "Lady Tasha, please go out first, I have something to say to Your Majesty." ”

He turned his head and didn't speak.

I didn't speak, and the silence in the dormitory seemed to crush even the air, suffocating my chest.

"I'll start from the beginning, little by little." He sat down again.

I settled down and sat down on the edge of the bed.

"I sneaked into the Holy Island of Minoa for a day and a night, and finally secretly drew the map of the island and the warship, but I was not discovered by the people of the Holy Island, but after I came back, I think Grados may have noticed something. I waited for the ship to sail, but a medical officer I knew in Minoa said he had something important to ask me for, and he couldn't refuse. ...... year He saved me, otherwise, I am afraid that the sword wound I suffered at that time would not be healed, and I would have died early. So I went to him, but I couldn't solve his problem, there was really no perfect solution, and as soon as I entered his house, I found that someone was following me, and I guarded their house. I'm not sure who is eyeing me, but there are not a lot of spies in Minia, but there are also a lot of spies who are twisting and turning. I consulted with the friend and asked him to lie that I was ill, and that I would leave his house without going through the gate, and then get on the boat and leave Minoa. But in the end, I was careless, and I had no choice but to hide my things in the dark place of the temple table, and although I fled to the sea, I was still intercepted. There were two of them, one was the Mikenny brought by Grados, and they hid and kept biting. It was only after seeing the other group that they were forced to retreat. On the other hand, there were the guards in the Minoa Palace, and I killed half of them, but in the end they were seriously wounded. Grados could guess that my actions were true, he and I had been paying close attention to each other for so many years, I knew who he was, and he knew that my origin must not be simple. But I really can't figure out how the Minoa Palace found my flaws......"

"Is it the Queen Mother of Minoa, did she kill you?"

"Well, it's the number one master of her palace guards......" Immorton looked puzzled, obviously still unable to figure out why he showed his feet.

"yes, I don't know if my medical officer friend was implicated?"

I nodded, remembering the house that had been burned to ruins by the fire. It turned out that he and Immorton were such good friends, and if he had known that he had the opportunity to pay tribute to their whole family while he was there: "I got the letter, and went to Minova, and it had been many days in between, and it was already too late by the time I arrived, and I guess his house was about a few days later than yours." ”

Immorton gave a gloomy look: "I was the one who caused him...... A son who was born to his family not long ago is ...... happily"

After that, I knew that Immorton had fled into the underground labyrinth, that his pursuers could not find him, and that he was too badly wounded to hold on to Andos.

"Well, what about later......" I asked in a low voice.

Is there really an afterlife?

He was slightly distracted, looked sideways at the already dark sky outside the window, and said after a while: "I can't tell you clearly, but suddenly I have consciousness." A voice asked me if I would like to come back, and I said yes. He asked me what I wanted and told me that he could make a deal with me. ”

"So, who is that?"

"Although I am a priest, there are many things that are really difficult to explain. No one has ever seen a god, no one has ever seen a demon. I don't think I'm a ...... anymore, though. people. ”

I stood up abruptly, walked up to him in two steps, and changed my voice when the words rushed to my lips: "Who dares to say no!" I...... I said yes. ”

He gently took my hand and pressed his face against the back of my hand.

"You...... Make the important things clear. Is there any other harsh blame for the deal? ”

He whispered, "I say...... I want the power to be able to protect my loved one. The voice agreed, and he didn't ask any harsh conditions. He just said...... The key to my resurrection is not him, and if the power that sustains my existence disappears, I will ......."

"Don't be verbose, what is that power, if it is in this world, I will definitely find it for you."

He looked up at me: "No need to look for ...... Right in front of you. ”

I was stunned for a moment: "Yes...... What the? ”

"If you love me for a day, I can exist for a day. One day, if you don't love it, I'll ......"

"Huh?"

"That's what the voice said."

His life and death depend on my heart? As long as I love him, won't he disappear? After I was stunned, I felt numb in my head, my heart was sour, sweet and sore, and I pinched him on the neck with one hand: "Okay, don't bother waiting for the future, I'll strangle you to death now!" ”

The words were ruthless, but the strength in his hands was not used at all. I only felt that my eyes were hot and my hands and feet were weak, and his hand was hugged and I leaned on his shoulder, and for a while I couldn't tell whether it was joy or sadness.
