Chapter 16 CHAPTER 16
On the way away, a thought occurred to Eric, and he began to wonder if he had been doing the right thing in avoiding Easteros' rebellion.More than a year ago, he participated in that war, and everyone said that Eastero betrayed the king with his ambition.But is Lorian, the king, innocent?
I'm afraid no one is innocent in this war.Eric thought, if Lorian and Heilaud have always treated Eastero in this way, then my blocking of Eastero would become unfair to him.
During the more than a year of getting along, Eric didn't feel that Eastero had such a strong desire to resist, maybe because of his concern for him, this kind of hatred no longer became the whole of his life, or he I also understand that he does not have this kind of charisma, and he has always hoped to live in peace.But before that, what exactly was the reason for Estero's rebellion?
Eric began to resent himself for not knowing. He had joined the king's side only because of the mercenary's commission and all the blind people. As for the cause and meaning of this war, he was as indifferent as anyone else.All they knew at the time was that Prince Eastero was an evil traitor, a desperate careerist, and everyone secretly cursed him for bringing this war, and blamed all the misfortunes on this demon.But no one understands why Lorian and Eastero suddenly meet each other after living for so many years.
Estero saw that Eric was a little absent-minded, and hatred and fear were growing in his heart. He tried to recall the temperature of Eric's palm just now, which made him feel at ease.The young man looked at him, and reached out to take his hand.
Eric froze for a moment, then turned his head and glanced. Eastero's palm was cold, and he couldn't help but hold the young man's hand back.Estero has grown a lot taller now, and his hands have caught up with his, only they are fairer and slender, but just as powerful.Eric smiled and rubbed the thin calluses on his hands, and said, "Are you acting like a baby again?"
Eastero lowered his head, put his finger between Eric's fingers, and said nothing.When Eric turned his head back again, he raised his head to look at the other person's broad shoulders and the bare/exposed neck between the collar and short hair.
He felt that his feelings for the teacher had exceeded the scope of his own comprehension, as if whenever he saw him, he would inadvertently laugh.But behind this feeling, his fear of losing him is also deepening day by day.His mother's words were like a spell, appearing in his dreams from time to time. In the boundless darkness, it was Lorian's plunder and Eric's betrayal, which were often intertwined with Selette Red's affairs, wake him up.When he woke up, Eastero was angered by this inexplicable fear, and sometimes he couldn't even tell which side was reality. At that time, he would knock on Elada's room regardless of any politeness After confirming that nothing had changed, he told Elada to forget what happened today, and after returning to his room, he would often just keep his eyes open until dawn.
Eastero had nothing to do about the darkness in his heart, but he didn't want to mention it to anyone, as if it might really happen if he said it.He would rather believe that this is his subjective assumption than admit that this is a reasoning that may indeed happen.
It can still be regarded as a peaceful life so far, how long can this meager happiness last?Estero turned his head, and the door of the king's room and Lorian could no longer be seen.
