Chapter 3 Dreams
In a trance, in the glass mirror, completely blurred by the water vapor of the bathroom, Reinkos seemed to inadvertently see a flash of extremely brilliant light. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Then, in an instant, it calmed down again. It's just that I don't know why Ryan Koss, who is holding a bath towel in his hand, always feels that there is still a sad gray left in his eyes, the kind of obscure light gray that is full of depression and dullness, and people can't breathe.
"How is this going on?" Shaking his head, he wanted to shake off some of the water droplets that were still sticking to the ends of his hair, "Sure enough, it's because I've been drinking too much lately, have you become resistant to sobering potions......" Reinkos, who rubbed his eyes quite childishly, took it for granted, because the disturbing residue disappeared without a trace as if it had never appeared.
After blinking again, and finally making sure that there was nothing out of the ordinary, Ryan Kos trusted his judgment and comforted himself with some indifference.
Wipe the water marks off your body at will, and then meticulously put on a brand-new, hand-made military academy dress in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling mirror in the locker room. Striving for perfection in every detail, Reynkos, who has regarded his father as an idol and role model for almost as long as he can remember, absolutely does not want to make his father, who has a little perfectionist plot and paranoia, a little unhappy just because of a little negligence in details, and a little carelessness.
Just not wanting his father to be disappointed in him is the source of the spirit that has gritted his teeth and insisted on being the best in every aspect for so many years.
"I say dear Ryan...... "As a sworn friend of the military academy and a best friend in weekdays, just like the prince who is used to Ryan Kos calling himself Zagari, he often likes to reduce Ryan Kos's somewhat tongue-twisting name to a nickname.
"Actually, it seems to me that the reason why you adore your earl father so much is probably because he has obtained a wife who is as perfect as your mother......" The above words are that at a certain prince's private dinner, he really couldn't stand the stubbornness of his best friend, who still used complete honorifics for his father even in a completely relaxed private occasion, and the fanatical worship that absolutely did not allow any questioning of his father, so he had no scruples about his friend.
However, according to rumors of the Empire's closed history, and some of the nobles who were very close to the royal family had inadvertently mentioned that at an uncertain time, the young Gregory III had also actively but secretly pursued this gentle and beautiful countess.
It's just that when I think of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who has a noble status and is very royal on weekdays, those inappropriate words and behaviors that can occasionally make people cry and laugh really give Lane Cos a little headache.
"This guy... Can you really be a good king in the future? "Because of the gap in identity, even if you are a friend in private, but with the education that Lenkos has received since childhood, you can only make a slight joke like this." Hawkers, as long as I think of the person who has a headache in the future, I'm not the only one, and I'm relieved. ”
Poor Ryan didn't know that for the strict upbringing of the imperial royal family, the crown prince who shouldered the future of the empire, there could be several people with such wanton and equal ideas. After a long time, the emperor and the crown prince, these two people at the pinnacle of imperial power, indulged this little nobleman.
Ah, these are all later words, now Ryan, the young Ryankos who completely restrained his mind, wore the family that has been with him since birth with a serious face, this is the honor given to Ryankos by the Amphisis Bellins family, and it also means that Ryankos needs to shoulder the family responsibility.
As Ryankos was about to turn around and leave the locker room, the crystal lamp hanging from the roof flickered slightly, and suddenly Ryankos frowned, because a hint of orange-yellow flame mixed with hellish darkness flashed in the corner of his eye again. It's just that this time the scene is clearer and more frightening than the previous one, and it is a kind of despair that pulls away from everything that is suffocating.
Stunned, Reinhardt, who could no longer move his eyes a little, even clearly saw several figures that he was very familiar with, and vaguely Reinhardt seemed to be unable to control everything about himself, and could only passively listen to the dull rumble, which sounded like a large pile of empty gasoline barrels rolling down the stairs, hollow, piercing and continuous.
"Hell, what the hell is this son of a bitch?" Ryankoss, who had been trying to make himself as moody and invisible, quiet and calm as his father, finally wanted to start chattering all kinds of swear words and foul language, but no matter how hard he tried, he didn't make a sound, and now this strange situation can no longer be explained by common sense.
"Hallucination...... Is it? ”
Tremors, as if everything was trembling, including the swing where I played alone when I was a child, and even the entire manor, as long as everything in sight was hopelessly trembling and dizzying. It wasn't until a sultry heat swept over with the smell of death that Reinkos suddenly remembered what the orange-yellow light meant.
Losing all control of his body, Ryankos had no way to struggle, in the background of the flames, he could only stand motionless in place, bearing the incomparable fear alone, looking at the demonic rolling smoke cloud in the distance with deep despair, looking up, feeling the air around him was burning his skin, Ryankos opened his mouth as hard as he could, trying in vain to absorb the last trace of oxygen in the hot air.
He wanted to call out to those who did not seem to have the slightest sense of danger, but he found that he could not make a sound, as if the world in front of him was completely different from his own, and when the fire in front of him that was enough to destroy everything was slowly approaching, it might be another world he saw, just the afterglow of a warm sunset.
"What the hell is going on?" Already utterly confused, Reynkos was puzzled by what he saw, because he knew from the bottom of his heart that he must be dreaming now, a very real nightmare. But this immensely real dream happened now, when he had never started to sleep, and the helpless Reinkos had lost the most basic judgment of what he was seeing, how it happened and why he was dreaming of all this. It was a nightmare so real that it was terrifying, and Reynkos found himself unable to even stop it.
It's like a forced TV that can't be paused, it can only be played backwards slowly, and there is no other choice. Standing upright in front of his family's castle, he watched helplessly as the people around him twisted and fell to the ground one by one, with faint green smoke emitting from their clothes, and then quickly turned into ashes.
The magnificent buildings were abandoned like the improvisations of children on the beach, and then reduced to ruins under the impact of the waves, except for the Gordon-Leres Fort of his own family, and not far away some classical castles that he had never seen in his memory, and which were not recorded in the imperial architectural encyclopedia, were equally fragmented and burned out.
Reynkos roared silently at the sky that was no longer blue, and before he finally collapsed on the fiery ground, he finally saw the true face of the demon that was rolling and burning over the ruins of his family's vast castle, a mushroom-like cloud.
At the end, when Reynkos's eyes were locked on the huge cloud full of tyrannical atmosphere, he found that he had finally regained control of his body, and the new clothes he had just changed into were all soaked with sweat, and the pale Reinkos landed on his knees, and his hands were barely propped up on the cold ground, gasping for breath, breathing the air in which the temperature and humidity were adjusted by the computer's central control equipment to the most suitable for reading, and making a heavy sound like a dehydrated fish.
"No... Never...", like a beast in a desperate situation, let out a hoarse howl. Ryankos almost stumbled towards the video telephone terminal used inside the transport ship.
"This is the bridge...."Captain Harpott, who had been following Count Zagatyres for many years and had more or less developed a little elegance under the influence, replied slowly and methodically. What does Lord Reynkos need...."Facing the almost roaring Reynkos, the old captain swallowed hard and spat the rest of the words back into his throat.
In all these years, Captain Harpott, who was accustomed to the almost impeccable grace and indifference of the father and son, had never seen such an embarrassed look from the young master of Reinkoss, and the anger and urgency that slowly faded over time, and the kind of hideousness that almost reached a certain critical point, almost the old captain who had served the Amphisis Bellins family for most of his life would think that he had mistaken his young master.
"Contact the manor, contact the manor now...... Immediately. Ryan, who was in turmoil in his heart, quickly calmed down, well, just calmed down on the outside. Anyone who knows him well knows that when Ryan repeats the words a second time, it must be a time of turmoil. Regardless of that turbulent mood, excitement, or fear, in general, Ryan at this moment did not have his graceful demeanor as the chief trainee of the Imperial Military Academy.
The so-called aristocratic elegance was helplessly abandoned by him at the moment. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) )
