Chapter 143: Starry Sky

The moonlight calmly covered the earth, and Tarrant squinted, and the treetops in the distance were as delicate and quiet as a picture, and there was nothing wrong with it, "What's there?"

The tip of the tree shook suddenly, as if something had hit the trunk, and a dark shadow flashed through the night into the surrounding trees.

"Hey, hey," Catrina patted Tarrant on the shoulder, "living here shows me that they are stored in any corner of the forest." ”

Apparently, someone heard Tarrant's confession, and Tarrant wiped the corners of his eyes and swallowed stiffly, "Okay, no one now." ”

"Not necessarily," said Katrina, who opened her hands and yawned widely, "aren't you sleepy? ”

"Hmm...... Maybe I've slept enough", Tarrant walked up behind Katrina and whispered, "I still want to say ......"

"Ah......" Katrina retracted her head, "Stupid, stay away from me, I don't want to beat you up." ”

"I don't mind," Tarrant continued, "and when I was unconscious, I heard a voice ask me, 'Will you protect her?' and I replied, "Of course." Then the voice asked me again: With your life? I replied: Of course. The last voice asked me: ?...... forever" Tarrant paused deliberately to observe the mage's expression.

"How do you answer?" the mage asked indifferently.

"I certainly answered it: of course. ”

"So......" Catrina whispered, snapping the fingers of her left hand.

"So I'm going to follow you and protect you for the rest of my life", Tarrant plucked up the courage to say what he had always wanted to say, he held back for a long time but never expressed it face to face, and now, after experiencing all those dangers, he believed that this was the right time, and he had the urge to express it, "This is my vow to you." ”

The mage's hands were rubbed together, and for a long time, "I don't want a fool to follow me," she strode forward.

"It would make me very sad for you to say that," Tarrant followed the mage with a helpless and embarrassed chin pinch, his stubble stinging his fingers.

The mage waved his hand back, "Are you confessing to me?"

"Uh......" Tarrant muttered a slurred syllable, "uh-huh...... OK...... bar. ”

"Idiot!" the mage turned his head and smirked, "then confess it again." ”

Tarrant's eyes turned around, and he vaguely felt dozens of eyes around him staring at him, making him too stressed to speak.

"I'll wait," the mage stopped on the grass at the edge of the forest and sat down.

Tarrant sat beside her, the bright full moon in the sky seemed to be a huge statue, in front of this idol he was going to make the most solemn vow of his life, he no longer dodged, and bravely said, "I love you." ”

The mage smiled even deeper, and she looked at Tarrant, slowly closing her eyes as the breeze passed through the two of them.

"I love you, I am willing to use the rest of my life to protect you", an inexplicable motivation supported him to confide all the words in his heart, "After going through those things, I am more afraid of losing you, I hope to be with you......"

Katrina closed her eyes, as if enjoying the current space between the two, and her red lips were particularly bewitched by the moonlight.

Tarrant asked apprehensively, "Do you accept it?"

Katrina opened her eyes with a slightly angry expression, "Idiot!" she slept on her back on the grass, "You're such an idiot!"

Tarrant looked around innocently, he didn't understand what he had just said wrong, "What ......"

"Shut up, I'm sleepy", the mage stared at the sky, his hands resting behind his head, his chest rising and falling slightly.

Tarrant swallowed the rest of the words, Katrina didn't look sleepy now, he recalled what he had just said, he really didn't understand what was wrong, what was she angry about, "I ......"

"Shut up," Katrina quickly sealed his words.

Tarrant reluctantly lay down, looked at Katrina, and then turned to look at the sky.

The stars shine and decorate the night sky, like a long river of silver, spectacular and brilliant, in the face of it, Tarrant felt his infinitely small, he took a deep breath, and sighed: "Man is like the smallest star in the sky, falling in a galaxy, those who become legends, like those meteors that emit the most enthusiastic light." ”

No response.

The two lived in silence.

"My hands are numb", Katrina suddenly loosened her hands at her sides.

Tarrant turned his head and looked at her bewildered, waiting for the next step, he didn't want to make another mistake.

The mage grabbed Tarrant's hand and placed it on the ground, "Give it to me." ”

"Oh......" Tarrant looked at him with an epiphany, and he straightened his arm, "glad to do it." ”

The mage's head rested on his arm.

The two quietly enjoyed the silence, the meadows, the woods, the breeze, the moonlight.

"Why did you think of confessing?" asked Katrina again.

"Hmm...... Because I thought of it," Tarrant replied with a smile.

"Just thought of it?"

"No...... No......" Tarrant waved his hand to explain, "I've always been worried about your refusal...... The vanity of the paladin ......", or maybe he couldn't afford to be rejected, he thought to himself.

"Paladins are a stupid, idiotic, and boring race," the mage said lightly.

"That'...... Do you accept it?" Tarrant returned to the question, feeling that something necessary was missing in his mind until he received an accurate answer, even though some of the previous actions of the two had crossed that line.

Katrina turned her face away, her stern eyes pinned to Tarrant's face.

"What's the matter......" Tarrant felt weak for a moment.

"Yes!" Caterina sat up, "I'm sleepy," and she got up and walked towards the cave.

"Ah......h

"It's night," Catrina swept away the rattan and walked into the cave.

"That was my best night!" Tarrant followed, picking up the blanket.

"I've promised, let's rest," said Katrina, crouching in the hay.

"You sleep on it", Tarrant endured a rapidly expanding sense of well-being, he didn't want his girlfriend-to-be to lie on the ground anymore.

"Okay", the mage did not refuse, lay on the stone bed, "finally have a bed to sleep", she picked up a ball of hay.

Tarrant spreads out the blanket.

"There's still one person sleeping here," the mage gestured to his side.

"Huh......" Tarrant couldn't believe the message in his ears.

The mage's body shifted inside.

"I ......" Tarrant hesitated, his heart beating wildly and almost popping out.

"I'll go to sleep first," the mage turned to face the stone wall.

An undulating curve appeared in front of him, soft and full, with Tarrant's heartbeat towards the peak.

"The Great Druid said you have to rest quietly, you don't have to sleep on the floor. ”

The phrase seemed to mean more than one thing, and Tarrant lowered his eyes, "Uh-huh......" He shook off the blanket to cover the alluring peaks and valleys, and then lay down on the edge of the stone bed.

"Have a good dream", the mage's closing remarks for the evening.
