Chapter 106 Contract 8
Chapter 106 Contract 8
He didn't expect Sotiria to tell him the whole thing without any concealment, and the questions he had originally planned turned into surprise in Sotiria's frankness.
Could it be that Sotiria is no longer uncommon to use lies to coax him?
"Do you think I'll lie to you?" Sotiria understood his thoughts, and instead of waiting for Julius to ask, he asked first.
The handsome eyebrows were furrowed, and a layer of grievance appeared in the blue eyes.
Yes, Julis read it right, Sotiria looked at him aggrievedly, as if silently accusing himself of distrusting him.
"I..." Julis suddenly panicked, and even stuttered when he spoke, "I respect your past, you never mentioned it to me, I, Kyle, told me that demons also..."
The originally stiff face twisted slightly, and finally, when Julius apologized repeatedly, Sotiria dragged him directly onto the bed: "I swear to you with my love, I am not the god of love and lust, Nor is it a demon of lust, 'Sabol' is just my borrowed identity."
Julius' heart was beating wildly.
Yes, he heard right.
"Love".
Sotiria said, "Love".
He has always hidden in his heart, carefully cared for the feelings, he has hoped, speculated, and tested countless times, longing for Mr. Knight to have the same feelings for him.
So unexpectedly, when the two were supposed to confront each other, they said it from Sotiria's mouth.
Julis fell on the bed, and the last gleam of blood in the cold moon faded away at this time, replaced by the warm yellow dawn that gradually lit up.He and Sotiria looked closely at each other, looking at Mr. Knight's light gray eyelashes.
They even touched the tips of their noses, his breath was hot, and Sotiria's breath was also hot.
"I didn't want to lie to you before, and I definitely don't want to lie to you afterwards. It's just, Ulysses, some things need to be resolved by me personally, and I don't want you to worry about me. So..."
"That's why you chose to skillfully conceal the facts." Julis continued, "Concealment is not deception. It's like you didn't tell me your identity, and didn't tell me that Heboli is the God of Hope..."
"That's right." Ulis looked into Sotiria's eyes, "Since Kyle told me about the relationship between Sabol and Tatos, he would naturally tell me that the 'Heboli' who suddenly appeared was once Among the four heirs of Apophis, the most powerful elf."
"Well, I have almost no secrets." Sotiria pretended to smile lightly, "What else do you know?"
Julius then told Sotiria everything that happened in the secret room.
When he heard that he appeared in many pictures and was dubbed the "God of Sowing" by Kyle, Sotiria was puzzled for a moment, and then laughed: "I'm afraid it's the ghost of that guy Heboli, he He is a guy with a lot of desire among the elves."
Sotiria turned sideways, lay beside Julis, propped his chin with one hand, and said like telling a story: "As the most beloved heir of Apophis, Sabol will not be criticized no matter what he does, so Tower Toss and Heboli are always used to mischief under the name of 'Sabol', they think that way I won't know."
As the two looked at each other, Julius suddenly became distracted.
He had thought early in the morning that he would find a time to have a good chat with his knight about his past and his past. He would treat their respective pasts honestly and solemnly promise the future. He was always imagining the circumstances under which he should bring this up. one request.He originally planned that when everything was over, he would return to Odong as a king, and according to the custom of Odong, he would bring Sotiria to the banyan tree by the Doma River, and propose to him in a dignified manner, letting nature and life witness their love. love……
"Ulysses, what's going on in your little head?"
"I sometimes think about elves, dwarves, dryads...these creatures that live in seclusion in the old world are obviously harmless creatures, but the stories that have been handed down always portray them as so barbaric and terrifying. "
"There will be dragons too," Sotiria said. "The dragons that breathe fire, have two wings, and when they're hungry, they'll steal human cattle and sheep. But after appearing on the edge of the world, these creatures only need Apophi With the magic of Si, you will never go hungry."
"The power of destruction... I used to think that having such power would only make people indifferent and cruel." Yulis unconsciously twisted the button on Sotiria's chest, only to hear a "boom", the firm The button sewn on the shirt was actually pulled off by him.
Yulis frantically touched the knight's chest a few times, trying to straighten his clothes, but he heard Sotiria's slightly heavy breathing, the mattress sank, and he was embraced by a warm embrace.
"Ulysses, Miar Ulysses." The magnetic voice rang in his ears, and Ulysses' lower abdomen suddenly became hot uncontrollably.
He bent one leg: "We need to have a good talk!"
Sotiria smiled and said, "I'm listening."
Julius suddenly sighed, patted Sotiria's cheeks with both hands, straightened the head that was resting on his neck, and forced him to look at him: "I said before, I hope you can put me As a partner who can stand shoulder to shoulder with you. I have been waiting for the day when you recognize me."
"In old world legends, Apophis once planted an apple tree in his abode, and because it was watered by God himself, the fruit on this tree was extraordinarily sweet. Everyone said that as long as you eat Drop that red apple and feel the most wonderful thing in the world."
Sotiria's voice was low, and his chest was buzzing and shaking when he spoke. Julis was pressed under him, and he felt the unspeakable agitation in his body became more obvious. He swallowed and continued hoarsely: "The red apple's legend."
"That is a temptation no one can resist. Miar Ulysses, you are the apple, I just want to protect you..."
"I'd rather be a thorny vine under the tree." Julius stepped on the mattress with his bent right leg, pinched Sotiria's shoulders with both hands, and pressed his knight on the bed with the strength of his body rolling , "I am the youngest swordsman in Odong, and no one can escape my fast attack."
Sotiria bent his eyes and smiled: "You are the most talented and hardworking person I have ever seen."
There seemed to be a strange smell in the air, like rich honey brewed into wine, just smelling the aroma scattered outside, one was already dizzy.
Julius lowered his body inch by inch.
His chest was pressed against Sotilia's chest, and the two hearts were so close that they seemed to collide with each other if they got any closer.
"Sotiria." Julius sighed.
His lips were slightly opened, and his eyes lingered on Sotiria's lips, as if he wanted to steal the sweetness from the corner of his mouth while no one was paying attention.
"Ai." Sotiria replied softly.
However, just as the lips of the two were about to touch, a small sound came from outside the door.
Yulis and Sotiria immediately stood up, the wooden door was opened, but the corridor was empty.
"It's not an illusion." After closing the door again, Sotiria affirmed.
The servants guarding the door had been dismissed by Julis when he came back, and after knowing that Hassan had sold his soul to the devil, Julis no longer ordered Hassan to serve him.
Now is the quietest time in the palace, and Julius's bedroom is in the most remote corner of the side hall, no palace people will pass by here when they get up at night.
A chill rose from the soles of his feet, and it was obviously no longer suitable for heart-to-heart talks.
Julis restrained his smile, walked to the writing desk by the window, grabbed the quill, and quickly wrote a line of ancient language on the parchment.
Beautiful fancy fonts formed a curse on yellowed paper.
"This is the spell that Kyle uttered when he summoned the demon. Sotiria, I can't contact the envoy, so I can only ask you."
Sotiria was unmoved.
"I will protect myself. Kyle has completely trusted me. I just need to wait for you to come back. I will not participate in the next war. The envoy of Thoth promised me that he will give Odong time to recover, and Odon, you need me," Ulis said.
Seeming to have finally made up his mind, Julis took a deep breath: "This will be the last thing I will do for the Holy Court as a believer in the Auspicious God. When this matter passes and you come back, I, we ..."
Unable to find any suitable words, he stopped, tilted his head and smiled, raised his eyes, jumped across the table with his arms, and grabbed Sotiria by the collar.
Mr. Knight bent down unpreparedly, with his arms propped on the table.
Julius raised his chin, his eyelashes trembling slightly.
Their shadows tangled together on the wall.
One bowed his head and the other raised his head.
Soft lips touch.
Like a believer, he sacrificed himself unreservedly to his god.
**
Julius sat at his desk until dawn.
The morning light came out from the clouds, brushing and staining his eyelids. After being stung by the golden-pink morning sun, Julis finally regained his senses.
The second bell of Lion Castle also rang at sunrise. In the past, at this time, he must burn incense and wash his hands, take out the ring pendant, and pray devoutly to the God of Austria.
But today it is not needed.
As early as in Lana Village, he had made up his mind to face up to his own heart.
Julius has always regarded himself as a devout believer, but in the short few months that Stanislav has been lurking, he has already broken countless commandments of the Austrian gods - no killing, no lying, no extravagance...
Although these sins made him suffer, the envoy made him firmly believe that this was a necessary sacrifice to complete the mission of the holy court. As long as he sincerely atones for his sins in the second half of his life, he can be forgiven.
Until he finally found out that he couldn't help falling in love with Sotiria, his contract knight.
Emotion with the same sex is a taboo of the Austrian gods. A sinner who violates the taboo cannot be forgiven, and his soul will be burned forever in the burning world.
however--
God loves the world, man and woman, the old and the young.
God loves all things, mountains, rivers, and the sun, moon, and stars.
Why, as a believer, while learning God's fraternity, he must regard same-sex love as evil and a sin?
Killing is a sin because equal life is taken away.
Lying is a sin because it breaks the trust of others.
Extravagance is a sin because precious resources are wasted.
What about love?
He also had such doubts when he was a child, but the God Envoy Yihe only told him that there was once a lord who committed the crime of homosexuality, adultery, and adultery. Under the white flame of the world.
——"Ulis, none of us want to be punished, do we?"
Julis nodded ignorantly. He passively accepted the conclusion that same-sex love is a sin, but the seeds of doubt had already taken root in his heart.
Until now, he finally had the courage to tell himself:
Love.
Only love.
It should not be a sin.
Julis walked to the bookshelf and took out the black-covered "Old God's Testament".
The knowledge spread by the God of God taught him to speculate, and also taught him not to follow blindly.
So faith should not be followed blindly.
He is grateful to Ao Shen for teaching him kindness and tolerance, but he can no longer accept Ao Shen's dogmatic talk about love.
After all, he may not be able to fully dedicate himself to the God of God like the envoy of the sanctuary.
Rather than that—
Julius turned the pages of the book.
For a moment, he thought he had picked up the wrong book, but the square hole dug out in the center of the yellowed parchment told him that this was the Old God's Testament, and that's where he hid the ring pendant that book.
But... where is the pendant?
