Lazar had bad luck for succession. He hit Alexandre's angry repeatedly and for an entire hour which made him think maybe this was his death. His ears, which felt so hot, seemed to be about to be knocked out of the place where they were attached. His ears, if it had legs, must have run away. Alexandra's voice was so loud, she had become accustomed to giving orders decisively on a battlefield dominated by a loud male voice.
In fact, a big voice is the first form of intimidation that will make people's guts shrink instantly.
What a shit!
For Lazar, this month is his unluckiest month. He gets a lot of bad luck from any side, as if every week he has to swallow a medicinal pill called anger from the leader.
Yesterday, because it was those intruders who entered his protector, and the day because of that crazy Alexandra's aunt Countess Abigail never met Alexandra, she had a lot of suspicious things, which they knew that the old lady wanted to take control of Rissingshire.
She is regarded as the rightful owner of Rissingshire, and if she can have Rissingshire, its existence will be even more profitable for the queen.
It's weird, it feels so weird.
"Aaa.." Lazar exhaled a long breath. The cloak he used swept across the ground because of his bent body. The weight he accommodates is very heavy, which makes his body, that is rarely trained by physical training, become weaker and weaker.
Boom!
The sound of the explosion sounded, which made Lazar look around him, he was really afraid that this time he just stayed by name. Not! No one will even know his name. They will only know him as a 'failed magician' who died because of his stupidity.
The wizard who died in the hands of his own leader.
[Don't let the intruder again!]
[Damn it!]
Lazar cursed repeatedly in his heart while running, which made his face flushed. The moment he arrived at the place of the sound, he saw that the extremely beautiful green eyes were looking at it quietly. The green eyes scared him. Yesterday, when the intruder was caught, Lazar saw Lucian who was near to them, just coming along with him and the knights.
Could it be that Lucian was there in the first place? Or did Lucian notice it quickly?
Apart from himself, does Lucian feel anything strange?
Lazar stared at him so intently he had to figure it out. Strange, that's how he felt from yesterday. Made his goosebumps stand up, pressing all his nerves as if pinched at something frightening.
The three intruders died when they were about to open their mouths, as Alfo and the Duchess he served said. Everything is a game to get what their enemies want.
They are firmly bound in a curse that locks secret meetings and presents death.
"What's wrong, Lazar?" asked Lucian in a calm voice. No rushed breathing was heard, and Lucian looked very refreshed, with shiny eyes and a healthy, sturdy body.
Lazar looked at the source of the explosion, and he saw the stone near the Rissingshire garden splitting. Lazar didn't ask about it, behaving like a fool who didn't know anything. Hope that what he did could catch his real tail.
As Lucian put his sword in its sheath, Lazar noticed the strange attitude. He knows too much about the formal attitude of war. Well! That! Lucian had an attitude that knew the ethics of nobility very well, making many thoughts revolving in Lazar's brain that had been filled with Alexandra's scorn.
Was Lucian ever an official knight, or did he run away from the official knight because of something? Or is he the intruder?!
If Lucian is the primary culprit of all this, Lazar will face difficulty in uncovering what Lucian really wants
She is the fiancée of duchess Rissingshire, saying that she is the culprit of all this is tantamount to giving up her own neck for Alexandra to cut off.
Lazar smiled. He had to find evidence first, and he firmly believed Lucian was not an ordinary mercenary knight.
"I'm just about to go to the tower." Lazar looked in the direction close to the main mansion. Lucian turned his attention for a second. Looking at the tall tower that uses beautiful black stones. When the sunlight hits the tower, then the tower shines like a diamond.
Lucian smiled, his supple eyelashes stressing his sweet face.
"The magic tower is so beautiful, I didn't expect that Rissingshire has a magic tower like in the empire."
"Sure, Rissingshire is a prosperous territory. There are many things that may exist nowhere else. Everything here serves to protect Rissingshire from those who seek to destroy it."
Lucian nodded. Lucian stepped on his feet, which made Lazar's heart beats speed up.
That strangeness he felt, would it eventually lead him to a terrifying fight? Lazar tried to calm down a lot, Lucian noticing the motion of Lazar's right index finger that stalled when he gasped once. Lazar could deliver a startling strike. Just in front of his face, twenty centimeters away, Lucian stopped with his head slightly tilted.
"I think I should see Lexa soon. She has settled matters with his guest?"
Lucian smiled and the green eyes seemed to be alive, which made Lazar unable to do anything. Something carried away and immersed him in the sparkle of diamond-like eyes.
Like? Beauty?
Is this what his fierce duchess likes?
"Lazar?" Lucian called Lazar's name. The soft, flowing voice had already knocked on Lazar's consciousness.
This sweet man has a lot of confusing things that are also liked by men.
Fuck!
Lazar, he is a very normal man. How could everything happen so quickly? A suspicion instead of being a liking? It was a joke in his damn days.
Yep! Of course! This is because he was so messed up, it has hurt his ears when Alexandra scolded him repeatedly. That threatening, screaming sound had damaged his ears and made his balance broken.
Too bad! It's really bad, and he shouldn't let go of his suspicion of Lucian.
"The Duchess is in her workroom, Sir Lucian." Lazar replied politely. He lowered his head with a slightly lowered body. Throwing away those annoying eye contact.
Lucian nodded again with a smile falling on his lips. "Thank you,"
Tap!
Lucian patted Lazar on the shoulder as he walked. Lucian's light footsteps moved further and further away and finally Lazar raised his head and noticed Lucian's wide back that was getting farther and farther away from his eyes.
*Siiiiing*
The sunlight reflected from his tower distracted Lazar and made him realize he had to perform the task from Alexandra immediately.
Rare wide legs were performed by Lazar, who eventually arrived at the black door with a dragon carved on the door. Lazar stepped foot into the magic tower.
