Devil’s Son-in-Law

Palace, study.

“Your Majesty, the territory of Golden Yaw first and foremost distributes a limited edition of its free magic game helmet to the nobles and followers of the empires, kingdoms and religions of the entire human world through the palaces of light everywhere. ”

“Free?” Rex the Great frowned on the throne, "The whole human world? Even in part, the cost is quite staggering. ”

“Yes, it is amazing, and I tentatively estimate that this investment accounts for almost 70%, if not more, of the total pre-Yellow Dragon earnings.” There was emotion in old Kovach's voice, "and when I got this data, my first reaction was that His Royal Highness was insane. Leaving Yellow Dragon liquor such a lucrative and good source of money unattended, what magic game to play, and investing such amazing funds, but...

“Now the first sale of magic games has caused the world to boil...” Old Kovach smiled bitterly: "A magic game helmet ordering party in Jinyao territory almost caught up with the triennial Human World Trade Congress, even the traditionally arrogant Pokémon are here, which is just the beginning! For the proceeds of the magic game, the magic game helmet itself is still a small part, the charging cost of the magic game helmet can theoretically continue indefinitely! Imagine the huge and long lasting benefits of this magic game! If the Dragon Nation is the creator of the magic game, His Royal Highness is the second ‘mother’ to truly give the game a wide life! Such a vision, such courage, such talent, whether it be the Imperial Council of State, the Department of Commerce, or even the entire human world, cannot be matched by a second person! ”

“Thirty years, I've never heard you so admire a man.” Rex took a deep breath and nodded, "He did dazzle, too dazzling... would it be brighter? ”

Old Kovach's lips moved, seemed to want to say something, and the words came back to his mouth: “I don't know. ”

“Ancient heritage, maker, Church of Light, Yellow Dragon Wine,” Rex the Great didn't say a word, his eyebrows slightly moved, "These are just returned, why even...”

The three words "Dragon Valley” were not spoken by Rex the Great, but the mind was fluctuating, “really good” - the magic game, which Arthur called "really good"!

Compared to outsiders, Rex knows much more about the insides of Dragon Valley. Whether it's Yellow Dragon Wine or Magic Game, he hasn't heard half the news before. Only about a year ago, he heard that Dragon Nation and Storm Island have become allies, using some kind of "Upper Palaeolithic Realm” of Storm Island for the Dragon Nation and Dragon Knight Trial. What does this “Upper Palaeolithic Realm” have to do with Magic Game? What does it have to do with “Upper Alchemy Civilization”?!

So even the Dragons...

“I don't know." Old Kovach replied, his head hanging even lower, and this answer didn't know whether to refer to "why” of Rex the Great, or the name he didn't say.

“You really don't know,” Rex looked at him with a smile, as if he'd seen through the old man's mind: "Because you're just old Kovach, and he's, like, ‘Arthur'. ”

“Arthur. Roland." Old Kovach added a few extra words, but caught Rex in contemplation and his right index finger on the seat armrest kept moving.

As an elder minister who has served for many years, old Kovach is a little chilly, and only in two cases will His Majesty have this habitual thing, the first being anxiety, and the second being... homicidality.

Either way... Old Kovach feels chilly.

Rex waved, old Kovach bowed back, and suddenly a drop of cold sweat slipped down his head.

The Emperor of the Dragon Huang Empire stood up and walked back and forth in the study. On one side of the floor, he saw a portrait on a wall. The beautiful woman was bathed in the moonlight of the pane and looked at him with a smile.

In the same moonlight.

Ziyuan Palace.

Under the Yuan Gui tree in the garden.

“This is the last courtesy lesson.” Veronica sat down smiling, "unfortunately, Eni didn't come today, and I prepared her favorite rosecake. ”

Chen Rui glanced at the empty plate and laughed: “So I solved this pity on her behalf. ”

Veronica glanced at him with a grotesque glance: "I didn't know to leave some for Eni. Men can't be so selfish. ”

“Ha ha,” Chen Rui's palm added two delicate little pieces of pastry, "the teacher took the fall, I secretly hid two pieces in the space ring. ”

“You...” Veronica shook her head with a smile and suddenly got stuffed into a small cup.

“Teacher, this is the pudding I made myself before I came here, a very novel little snack, you try it. ”

“Did you do it yourself?” Veronica looked somewhat surprised at the strange dim sum of the fruit, picked up a spoon and put it in her mouth, her eyes slightly brightened, "yummy. ”

“Teachers like it, I'll cook it for you more often in the future. ”

Veronica looked at the pudding in her hand and suddenly her eyes were red and she lowered her head.

“Teacher? ”

“Nothing, I just feel warm," Veronica raised her head, the abnormality in her eyes had long disappeared and she was still smiling, “the teacher was happy because it had been a long time since she felt that way. ”

“Teacher… I can stay with you all the time if you want. ”

“If,” Veronica's smile faded, "have I fallen into the abyss of unseen sunshine? ”

Abyss...? Chen Rui looked directly into her eyes and slowly reached out her hand: “Then I will pull you out of the abyss with these hands. ”

Veronica's fingers trembled and slowly raised them, as if to reach out to him, finally changing direction and touching his face.

That hand gently touched the face, as warm as Arthur remembered.

However, in the “Chen Rui" sensation, Veronica's emotions at this time carry anxiety and fear, as well as a hint of a hidden alternative scent for many years.

This scent is incredibly familiar to Rui Chen.

Destruction.

This warm hand, touching your face, is like a sharp knife blade stroking back and forth between your throats.

As long as the other person moves, he will have a different head… if Chen Rui is still the original "Arthur”.

Chen Rui did not make way, but stared into her eyes. At this moment, he felt a sense of trance, but his memory became clearer.

At the academy, the teenager met her sister Veronica, and the teenager who lost her mother as a child was deeply attracted to the teacher.

There is no persecution of identity, no extra evil thoughts, only the kind of heart that yearns for care and closeness.

True love always touches people, and Veronica, who has always been a bit isolated, finally accepted this brother.

At first it was very pure brotherhood, Arthur's happiest two years.

As he grew older, the mind of the teenager changed quietly, and in his life, no woman could replace Veronica except the sick mother, who had long regarded the “sister” as the woman to accompany him for life.

Until the announcement of that union.

The warm hand went away and the teenager's tears blurred his gaze.

It rained and drove back to Longhuang Empire.

Then he knelt outside Rex's palace for three days until he was unconscious and seriously ill.

Unfortunately, that outcome could not be changed.

Veronica seemed to see these past events in his eyes, and another emotion began to emerge that was inextricably linked to destruction and fear.

The atmosphere of destruction grew stronger, as if it were about to erupt.

Chen Rui's starry power was ready, but unexpectedly, it was neither killed nor destroyed, and only two lightly trembling lips were gently imprinted on his face.

Despite the veil, you can still feel that warmth, as if your soul could melt in it.

The warmth fades away.

“You're going to the Blue Yaw Empire tomorrow, which is kind of a farewell from your teacher. If you get married, don't come here again, and treat Princess Rambis and Annie and Laura well. ”

“Teacher…” Chen Rui clearly felt that the strength of such a fierce struggle had not diminished at this moment, but had become stronger.

Her other hand hidden behind her, her clenched fist trembling, the skin on the back of her hand had developed a strange crack, pinched into the fingers of the palm deep into the flesh, a tiny bit of blood penetrated out and dropped to the ground.

Seeing that gentle smile, if he hadn't known what had just happened, he would have thought it was just a very common kiss.

Calm and warm.

Another familiar feeling.

In my memory, fragments that had already been broken were gathering, one by one.

“Go on, I'm a little uncomfortable. Need a break.” Veronica's voice seemed very calm.

Chen Rui gently touched the face she had just been kissed and looked deeply at her: “Veronica, wait for me. ”

Instead of using the name ”teacher" at this moment, he called out her name and turned around.

After a few steps, several petals on Veronica's side suddenly turned silently and silently into powder.

Chen Rui, as if he had not noticed, still did not turn back and walked out of Ziyuan Palace on his way.

At a moment when Chen Ruiyi disappeared, the space beside Veronica suddenly changed dramatically, turning into a blood-red heaven and earth, a terrible roar from his throat, the fierce power burst out, as if some kind of fierce beast was raging, the sky collapsed and the whole space was trembling.

With the eyes of distant palace women, you can't see these at all. Even if you look closely, you can only see that the shade under a tree is slightly distorted. The fallen petals disappear, and you have no idea of the real changes in space.

It took a long time for that terrible destabilizing force in the blood-red space to stop.

The only figure left was that of Yixinna, holding her shoulders with the hands that had turned into horrible claws, trembling and sitting down, curling her body like a winged orchid.

Under the dark moonlight, star-like eyes in the distance are silently watching the scene.
