The Abode of the Ten Trees and the Second of the Trees.

A green mist covered the space above, and below it was an endless meadow and a huge tree in the center.

The foliage of the giant tree was thick, and within a pile of leaves a man lay in the corner of a curved leaf.

The leaves were slanted, and the man was lying on a crooked corner, the right side of his blue down jacket had been cut off.

The man's right shoulder was naked, and a bright red stab wound was clearly visible not far from his heart.

Instead of blood flowed from the wound, white and dark red, as well as green airflow.

"Ahh Uhhh

The man frowned, gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and couldn't help but scream from time to time.

"Whoosh!"

There were several sounds in the distance, and a black figure was seen quickly scanning through the huge foliage around it.

Then a girl quickly descended on the man's side, and the girl was obviously in a hurry.

She looked anxiously at the man's right shoulder, knelt down beside the man and shouted, "Riskoda!" I, I, I, I learned from my dad how to save you!

"Are you still alive?"

Listening to such a noisy voice calling out to himself, Riskoda opened one eye with difficulty.

Riskoda opened half of his bright red pupils and looked at the anxious two in front of him in pain, and said in a wordless manner: ".... Two.... You're really back. ”

"Uh-huh!

"I'm back!

"You hold on! I'm going to help you get rid of that expulsion stream!" The second anxiously said as he took away the dark blue scarf around Riskoda's neck.

The two folded the scarf and put it over Riskoda's naked right shoulder, then stretched out his right hand and frowned.

Close your eyes and bend your five fingers to send out a dense green airflow, which is more vigorous and bright than the three aircurrents twisted by Riskoda's right shoulder!

"This level of magic! I can run away in one go!

"Bear with me! Riskoda. Second, looking at Riskoda's painful expression, after speaking, his right hand turned his backhand and his five fingers were bent to aim at the airflow emanating from Riskoda's right shoulder;

The green ** force of his right hand slowly burrowed into Riskoda's right shoulder, passed under the scarf and into the wound.

“！？ Yes! Yes...... Whew. Riskoda opened his mouth and shouted as the magic of the two entered his body.

Until a green whirl wells up over his right shoulder and then slowly spreads and disappears, Riskoda rolls over with his eyes closed and lies face down on his side.

“.... Riskoda, what's wrong with you!

"Hey! You're not dead, are you? You shouldn't be dead!

"I've tried so hard to save you! Riskoda! The second saw Riskoda lying on the side with his head tilted and did not make a sound for a moment, and anxiously pushed Riskoda with his hand and shouted loudly, looking very defeated.

"Riskoda!"

"Reese!"

Riskoda was repeatedly pushed by Er and couldn't be at peace for a moment, and in desperation, he instantly turned his face to look at Two, who was about to cry, and said, "Stop arguing, Two."

"I'm much better, but I'm very weak, you let me rest quietly for a while, okay."

"Uh.... Well. Seeing that Riskoda was still alive, he smiled embarrassedly and replied.

Second, the Riskoda was already mentally exhausted by the toss, and he was embarrassed to release his hand from the back of the Riskoda.

Kneeling beside Riskoda, his hands on his laps, and his orange braid on his left chest, he looked at Riskoda, showing a gentle smile and a very well-behaved look.

On an oversized giant leaf, a blue-haired young man wearing a blue down jacket with a bare right shoulder slept peacefully.

It seems that I haven't had a good rest for a long time, my eyes are closed, and there is no movement.

"Hmm...."The young man was about to wake up, and his eyelids began to tremble slightly.

"Hmm....It's been a long time since I've had such a restful rest." The blue-haired man opened his eyelids slightly, and his eyes widened with a loud voice.

When I opened my dark red eyes, I thought that there would be a wide sky in front of me, but I found many dense leaves!

“！？

"Why are the leaves so big?" The man saw this abnormal scene in front of him, his pupils shrank, and he said in surprise.

“！？” Before the man could react to the environment in front of him, a cute girl's happy face suddenly appeared in the man's field of vision, and he was shocked!

"Riskoda, you're awake!" The girl in front of the man looked at Riskoda and said with a smile, looking very happy and excited.

The man slowly sat up and saw that the wound on his right shoulder was recovering, and the wound was much smaller.

Remembering that he was injured by the cross sword before, a lively and weird girl rescued him, Riskoda touched his right shoulder and looked at the girl sitting next to him and shouted, "Two? ”

"Uh-huh! It's two!

"Riskoda, are you sleepy?

"But! Looks like you're alive!

"Great! I did it! Seeing that Riskoda was alive and remembered himself, Er suddenly stood up and shouted in a circle with excited hands to the sky.

"Hehehe...yes, I'm alive." Riskoda looked at the happy two in front of him, laughed softly, looked at the two and said.

"Haha....

"But I'm sorry, it's because of the second that you almost died." Second, when I saw Riskoda's smile, I remembered that I almost killed Riskoda;

Scratching his head embarrassedly, he apologized to Riskoda in embarrassment.

Riskoda stood up, a helpless smile appeared on his lips, and he said to the second person who was half a head shorter than him in front of him: "Yes."

"If you hadn't ignorantly treated me with magic, I wouldn't have almost died in an instant."

"I'm sorry, I didn't know what was so difficult." The second lowered his head and looked at his feet helplessly and said.

Looking at the lively and shy girl in front of her, Riskoda looked at Er with gentle and emotional eyes and said tenderly: "Although you almost hurt me, you saved me in the end."

"I thought I was really going to die, thank you, two."

“.... No, it's not a big deal. The second looked at Riskoda and looked a little shy, and said while pulling the hair on his cheeks behind his ears.

“！？

"Your ears, you're from the Elves?" Two brushed the hair from his cheeks behind his ears, and Riskoda noticed that Two pointed back ears asked in surprise.

“？

"Well, yes, what's wrong?" The second looked at Riskoda without paying attention and admitted his identity.

“....

"Why save me?

"You're an elf." Seeing that Er admitted that he was an elf, Riskoda's expression became vigilant, and he looked at Er and asked again flatly.

"Because I saw that you were pitiful, I was saved." Seeing the second Riskoda, he instantly became a little cold, and replied truthfully without paying attention.

Riskoda saw that the two behaved very casually, not caring at all that he was a demon race, and asked puzzledly: "Indeed, the people of the elf race are more sentimental.

"But you shouldn't save the demons, what are you for?

"Help me?"

"Huh?

"I saved you, although I almost killed you, but I am still your savior.

"Why do you look suspicious of what I'm trying to do with you?" Second, in the face of Riskoda's question, he did not answer this time, but raised his eyes confidently, tilted his chin and looked at Riskoda and asked rhetorically.

looks very naughty and cute, and behaves like a rough princess.

“....

"Indeed, you saved me.

"But I can't believe that the people of the elf clan can actually save the people of the demon clan." Listening to Er's words, Rickoda's ashamed eyes circled around and said in confusion.

Hearing what Riskoda said, Er shook his head and looked at Riskoda with yellow pupils open and didn't understand very much, and opened his mouth to ask, "Why do you think that the elves who value any life will not lend a helping hand to the demons?" ”

“....

"Don't you know?

"The demons and the elves have always looked at each other unpleasantly, even if they won't fight, but the two clans won't deliberately help each other." Seeing that Riskoda didn't understand the relationship between the elves and the demons, he readily spoke out about racial discrimination.

"Is that so?

"I've heard that the relationship between the demons and the human race is not good, and it's the first time I've heard that there is a discord with the elves." Second, he put the index finger of his right hand to his mouth and said absently.

It doesn't seem to regard himself as an elf, or as a demon in front of Riskoda.

“....

"That's why the elves and the Terrans are allies.

"Are you really an elf? This is a well-known fact for everyone in both communities. Riskoda helplessly looked at the second person in front of him who had the characteristics of the elves, but did not seem to be of the elves.

“....

"When I was a baby, I was taken away by my father and left the elves.

"I have been following my father since then, except that my father asked me to go back and visit the [elf queens] in the elf clan on his behalf, there is not much else to do with it."

“！？

"Elven Queen!" Looking at the two characters who looked indifferent and said that they couldn't be done, Riskoda let out a cold sweat of surprise.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Riskoda suddenly screamed, he looked at Riskoda and asked.

Riskoda smiled helplessly, looked into Er's eyes and said, "Hehe, it's nothing, I just think your life experience is very complicated." ”

"Hehe, when I was a child, I was in the elf clan, my parents died, I was powerless, no one looked down on me, and no one wanted to play with me, and they all treated me as a monster.

"Because at that time, I became [Shuang] from time to time...."The two hippies said with a smile, and stopped when they said Shuang.

"Double?" Seeing that the second said something that he didn't want to say, Riskoda opened his mouth and called out the double in confusion.

“....

"Uh, nothing!

"Nobody!" Seeing that Riskoda was intentionally aware, the second hurriedly put his hands and ten fingers behind his back and said with a look of being a thief.

"Everyone has something they don't want to say, and I'll listen when you want to say it." Seeing that the two were obviously embarrassed and disguised, Riskoda was very gentlemanly and did not continue to ask.

"Hee-hee, don't you suggest I'm from the elves?" Two looked at Riskoda expectantly and asked.

"Why advise, you didn't recommend that I was a Vampire and saved me.

"Why should I suggest what race my benefactor is?" Riskoda, an energetic girl by her side, also became in a happy mood, and said humorously without any sense of pressure to face her life-saving benefactor.

Seeing that the atmosphere had recovered again, the second big man walked up to Riskoda and patted Riskoda's back with his right hand and said, "Haha, I think vampires are very handsome!" ”

Riskoda remembered that he fell asleep when his injury got better, and when he woke up, he saw Er, and wondered if Er had never left, so he asked, "Speaking of which, have you been by my side all the time when I was asleep?" ”

"Uh-huh....

"Hehe, I didn't." Faced with Riskoda's question, the two hummed twice, and deliberately elongated the tone, and did not tell the truth until later.

“....

"I thought you never left." Riskoda seemed a little disappointed when he heard Er's answer, and said with a melancholy look in his eyes.

“....

"Ahaha, don't you think that I've been waiting for you to wake up, and I'm so worried about you all the time?

"Haha, you're so innocent!" Seeing Riskoda's disappointed look, he clutched his stomach and said with a smile.

“....

"I.... Alone all the time, indeed.

"I really look forward to such a romantic, strange love." Riskoda's eyes kept rolling back and forth, and the dark red pupils said shyly that he didn't deliberately hide his thoughts.

“....

"Hehe, I, I'm actually worried about death, watching you motionless like death by your side, my heart is really going to fall out.

"I ran to my dad in a panic a few times, and although my dad said it would be fine, he was still very worried about you and fidgeted." Seeing the Riskoda who showed good feelings, the second also began to talk more and more hypocritically, lowering his head and blushing on his cheeks;

His eyes drifted around, but he didn't look at Riskoda and talk.

"Two...."Riskoda looked affectionately at the girl in front of her and called out her name.

Then his right hand went around Er's back, and when he saw that Er didn't refuse, he hugged her, and the two looked very compatible.

"I've always wanted to be like my dad, to be loved and in love, but it's hard for me to trust anyone other than my dad.

"When you were lying on the ground outside, I felt that you were so badly injured, it must be a hassle to save you, I don't like trouble, so I didn't care about your thoughts at the time.

"But I feel like you're supposed to be the same kind of person as me, so, can you give me a taste of what it's like to be in love?

"Riskoda." The second put his arm around Riskoda's back, put his chin on Riskoda's naked right shoulder, and said very romantic words.

"Faced with the feeling of not wanting to care, in the end you still saved me, maybe we are the same kind of people.

"I also want to fall in love, we have the same goal, and you almost killed me after you picked me up from outside, it's very funny.

"At that time, you made my injuries worse, and you said that you would come back if you asked my father, but I was so scared, I was so scared to see you gone.

"You won't come back, I can't hold on anymore, I won't be able to get a love in my life, such thoughts keep popping up in my mind.

"But I didn't give up, although I thought that you would not come back, but I still patiently waited for you to come back." Riskoda hugged Er's narrow back and seemed to be very afraid of losing, and said with a very reluctant look.

"But I came back and saved you, and it turned out that we were both close to each other at a thought." Two yellow eyes rolled with tears, and said shyly with a smile on his lips.

"Riskoda, I like you." Then the second left tears from the corners of his eyes as he spoke, and crossed the second cheek with a smile and tears.

Is this joy? Or is it sad? Tears of pain?

"Two, I love you." After Riskoda finished speaking romantically, he let go of Er and touched one side of Er's cheek, gently wiped Er's tears with his hand and continued: "Why are you crying?

"Laughing and crying, it's not beautiful at all."

Er, smiling, accepted Riskoda to wipe his tears, looked at Riskoda with a smile and said: "I laugh because I have a feeling of liking for you, and I cry because I have no feeling of love for you." ”
