A Tale of Strategies For the Throne

In the afternoon, King Aaron Landis was just as sunny as before.

In the courtyard, the fountain of the stone statue of the star goddess dropped water droplets in the air to bring a cool breath to the air.

In the room, it was still the usual teaching time of the chief priestess every afternoon.

For Gallan, it is quite rare to listen to Tapti’s teaching. After all, it was Xiemuer who was responsible for teaching him in the past.

But in this life, Xiemuer became a general and became a royal guard, and Tupiti took his place.

Gallan also knew in his heart that every person cannot be invariable in every life.

It’s just that even if he understood that yesterday Xie Muer looked at his strange eyes, he still...

When Gallan's mood was a little trance, the chief priestess came to a sip of herbal tea, showing dissatisfaction, when he explained the entire territory of Aaron Landis.

"I really don't know what your majesty is thinking."

As she said, she took another sip of herbal tea.

"Himmos is clearly the guard your majesty gave you, but your majesty is holding him every day and saying that he wants to exercise his martial arts. Is it not necessary to leave this matter to other generals?"

Garland hahagan laughed twice, not a good conversation.

In fact, he was still a little worried at the beginning that Brother Wang was holding on to Heimus every day. He had considered whether to talk to Brother Wang.

But Heimus said that although Brother Camos was based on the lesson, he actually taught him a lot of modern powers, for example, he knew nothing about how to use energy guns. of. And he also wanted to learn as soon as possible the powers he did not have in this era.

Therefore, for the case that Brother Camos found Huimos from time to time, Garland assumed the default.

"It's okay, Huymos is not there, isn't there Kehos?"

After returning to Aaron Landis, Kehuos had already been appointed by Camos to become a military officer. Because of his duties, Kehuos usually had to stay by Camos.

However, every time Camos sent Kehos to call Huimus away, Kehos would stay and be in charge of Garland.

So now the guard outside the palace is Kehuos.

"Well, it's not the first time His Majesty's willfulness..."

The chief priestess, who had been used to being tortured by this wayward majesty from the past, sighed helplessly.

She looked at Gallan and suddenly thought of something, she said it with a smile.

"For example, your name should be right after Emperor Xianqi, but at that time, your teenage lord His Majesty took all kinds of tumultuously, and just snatched your naming rights from Xian Di."

She smiled and looked softly at Gallan.

"So, prince, your name is given to you by your majesty."

"‘Clear sky,’ he said, this is a good name. He hopes you will live in the sun all your life, and hope that your mood will always be like sunny weather, carefree."

Garland thought for a while, and then asked, "Put my name, Tapti, there is one thing I have always cared about."

"Yes?"

"Although you haven't taught the history of Aaron Landis in the class you gave me, but after returning here, I read some of it myself, so I also know some of the more famous history."

Garland asked curiously.

"Brother Wang's name, my name, and your name, Kehos, Huimus, and the head of Chevalier... so many of the same names happen to be together, it seems a bit strange?"

When he learned that the names of Kehos and others were still the same as in the previous life, Garland was puzzled.

Although the reincarnation looks and characters may be similar, it is impossible for them to have exactly the same name. Isn’t that a coincidence?

Garland's question made Tapti laugh again.

She raised her hand to cover her lips, but the corners of her lips couldn't be restrained, but she smiled with helplessness.

"Actually, I didn't call this name before, neither Kehuos nor Head Sherman."

"what?"

"I heard that His Majesty was not the same name as before."

"what??"

"It was probably when His Majesty was in his early twenties and suddenly said that he wanted to change his name. Xian Di was originally not allowed, but His character... cough, in short, Xian Di really took him for granted, and finally he could only change himself now. name."

"........."

"Later on, I was chosen as His Majesty's attendant, and His Majesty gave me this name directly. At that time, Kehos, who was still His Majesty's guard, was also given the name of His Majesty. Later, at that time, it was just a normal Royal Guard's break. The same is true of Muer."

Although some people have been sour in the back, they are really envious and jealous of them.

After all, there are honors that have been treated differently by His Majesty and given a name. There are only three of them.

That is the proof of their majesty's heart.

"........."

"Later, Xiandi talked to me about it. Xiandi believed that it must be His Majesty who saw the legendary hero Lion King Camos at that time. His Majesty adored him, so he had to change his name. It also gave us the names of subordinates who had merits next to the Lion King."

"........."

Garland didn't know what to say for a while.

Brother Wang's operation really left him nothing to say.

However, such a thing as being considered an admirer of one's own can also make people cry and laugh.

Presumably, when everyone thought that he was an admirer of the Lion King two thousand years ago, it must be uncomfortable and complicated in his heart.

Thinking of this, Gallan couldn't help laughing with Tapputi.

"But it is a pity that all three of us failed to become those in history according to His Majesty's hopes."

Tapti continued with a smile and said, "I don't want to be a female ruler. I entered the temples to become priests. Kehuos disappeared and became a dark guard to protect you, and Xie Muer was holding the name of the high priest, and he became a priest. The head of the Royal Guard."

She said, "Oh, you should have seen him yesterday, right?"

That palace is just one of the places where the Royal Guards are responsible for guarding. The Royal Guards have other responsibilities, so Xie Muer, who is usually the head of the regiment, will not stay there.

However, when His Majesty went there to worship the princes, as the head of the group, he had to be on his side.

Garland nodded.

"See you. He..."

He hesitated and said, "He is a very serious person."

"Yes, this character of Xie Muer is actually more suitable for becoming a priest. It is said that an old priest chief once wanted to call him into the temples to let him inherit his position, but Xie Muer rejected it, but instead Enter the Royal Guard."

His Majesty Camos once privately asked Xie Muer why he refused.

At that time, she was also nearby and heard Xie Muer's answer.

Xie Muer said that he had a very strange illusion since he was a child. He always felt that he could not protect the people who were very important to him.

It feels like there have been many times in the past, he wanted to protect someone, but ultimately failed.

Therefore, he desperately made himself stronger from an early age.

Because being a priest has no power to protect others, he does not want to do it.

At that time, His Majesty, who used to be extremely curious, said nothing about the strange words that Xiemuer said.

He just raised his hand and patted Xiemuer's shoulder, sighing rarely, and never asked any more.

…………

"prince?"

Looking at the prince who suddenly had some fascinating eyes, Tapputi called softly.

"What are you thinking?"

She said, "Is it because Xie Muer's attitude towards you is not good? You don't care too much. He is an impersonal guy. He is the same for everyone, even for His Majesty."

"It doesn't matter."

The rejuvenated teenager looked at her with clear eyes and brighter sunlight.

The boy's eyes curled up like a crescent moon.

He said, "He will like me."

He said that, he seemed to be smiling happily, but also confident.

"I like him very much." The teenager propped his cheeks in one hand and tilted his head, watching Tapputi's eyes full of starry smiles, "So I think he will like me too."

Every time, even in those few failures, that person has always been with him.

Even if it fails, the man has been stubbornly guarding him until the end.

Even a stranger.

It doesn't matter if there is no memory.

The familiar soul still exists.

He should believe that the bond between souls will still exist.

Therefore, it doesn't matter if you don't remember, as long as you meet and know each other again, and create memories between each other again.

He believed in himself and believed in Xie Muer.

At this moment, the shadows that had accumulated in my heart had disappeared from yesterday, and Gallan changed his hands to his chin, his eyes bent, and he began to think with a smile.

It seems that he had more excuses to see Xiemuer and bully... Oh, no, as a prince, he had to get acquainted with the head of the Royal Guards as soon as possible.

…………

On the other side, Garland and Tapti both thought that Camos in the martial arts field was standing in front of the Pantheon at this moment.

After two thousand years of inheritance, the temple has been very different from before.

Thousands of years ago, there was an incident in which the internal battle between the Temple of Shamash and the Temple of Nanna led to the decline of the country. Therefore, after that, the power of the temple was greatly reformed.

Although there are still many shrines of different gods in the folk, the main shrine under the control of Wang Ting can no longer be divided into different factions.

In the palace, there is only one temple.

The 13 gods of Aaron Landis are worshipped in the hall of gods.

That is to say, folk priests can believe and serve a deity alone, but priests with official status do not score factions and must serve the 13 gods together.

"What did you ask me to bring you here?"

Camos looked back at the side of him, Camos asked.

Heimus looked at the magnificent temple in front of him, and sharpened the arc of the corner of his eyes.

The edge of the golden-red pupil flashed a cool arc of light, and he said, "Debt."

Having finished speaking, he strode inside.

…………

After following Tapti for a whole afternoon, Gallan felt dizzy and his head went up.

What did Brother Wang say he didn't need to take the exam anymore... but what is the difference between him and the candidates who are preparing for the exam?

Garland thought sadly.

The chief priestess was standing behind the table and retreated to him.

The teenager was lying on the table with his arms outstretched, and the whole person limped, but he lifted one hand weakly and waved, beckoning that he heard.

Looking at the prince's appearance, Tapti couldn't help laughing.

She chuckled and turned back.

When she first walked to the door, she happened to collide head-on with the returning Huimus.

Huimus nodded slightly at her, and then walked in.

Somehow, the heart moved abruptly, and the chief priestess looked back at Huimus's back and frowned.

She seemed to have a strange feeling, as if there was something in this person that made her very familiar, but she couldn't tell what was familiar.

Tapti shook his head, dispelling the strange feeling at the bottom of his heart, turning his head back, crossing the courtyard, and walking towards the gate of the palace.

Garlan, who had been lying on the table all the time, heard familiar footsteps, but he was too lazy to get up.

"How come back so late today?"

His arms were still stretched out on the table, but he just raised a face and rested his chin on the table, looking very unsightly.

However, the look of those bright eyes is really cute.

"It took some time to ask for debt."

Huimus said, understatement.

"what?"

What debt do you want?

In just a few days, who did he lend money to? Can't it be Brother Wang?

...No, where does the money come from?

Garland was wondering, and Huimus had come over and stood opposite the table.

Pressing one hand on the table, he leaned forward slightly.

"You said, you don't like flowers very much."

He says,

"So this time, I was going to court you with something else."

I just didn't expect that he hadn't spoken yet, but he was one step ahead of Garland.

Huimos extended his right hand, which seemed to be holding something.

Garlan stood up and looked curiously at the hand held by Huimus.

"Is it for me?"

"Ok."

The teenager blinked his eyes and said with a grin: "Since it was originally intended to court me, if it is too bad, or if I don't like it, I will be disgusted."

Huimus smiled.

auzw.com "You will like it."

He said firmly.

"I use it as a gift, so that you can never refuse me."

"It's really self-confident, and I was beaten to see what to do."

Garland murmured softly.

He said that in his mouth, but his face inevitably showed a curious look.

He stood with his hands on the table, leaned forward, and looked at Heimus's hands without blinking.

Under his gaze, Huimus slowly spread his hand.

Appearing in the palm of the palm without palmprints is a transparent ball the size of a dove egg.

The outside of the ball is like a crystal sheet without any impurities, crystal clear and gleaming with a layer of shimmer.

The thin layer is like flowing streamer, with brilliance and brilliance.

The inside is hollow, and there are three bright fluorescent lights floating gently in the crystal ball.

The three-point fluorescence rotates staggered in the sphere with seemingly irregular, but extremely harmonious and rhythmic trajectories, even under the sun, they also flash dazzling luster, as if there is vitality.

Wherever the fluorescent light passes, there are traces of light, like scattered stardust, and like a little broken snow scattered in the crystal ball.

It looks as beautiful as a dream.

Even if he has seen countless rare treasures in the past, Garland can't help being attracted by this beautiful crystal ball at the moment.

More precisely, the three bright fluorescent lights in the sphere attracted him and made him look intently. A strange sense of familiarity made him stretch out his hand and wanted to touch it.

His movements are very light.

However, at the moment when his fingertip touched the crystal ball, the crystal ball, which had been lying in the palm of Huimos for a long time, seemed to be like a fragile bubble. It burst and burst.

The three-point fluorescence turning in the sphere instantly traversed three arcs in the air and flew in different directions like an arrow away from the string, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Garland was taken aback.

"what happened?"

He looked at Hyims in surprise and said, "I didn't break it on purpose. I really just touched it and touched it lightly."

Seeing Garlan nervously explaining to him, Huimus laughed.

His empty right hand reached out and touched Gallan's head.

"It's okay."

He stroked Garland's hair. He said, "It already belongs to you."

"?"

Garlan looked at Huimus in bewilderment, and felt puzzled at all.

He simply leaned over and stared at Huimus.

"Don't play with dumb mysteries, what is the thing you gave me?"

Heimus looked at Gallan who had approached him, his lips raised.

However, instead of answering directly, he suddenly talked about others.

"Do you remember, Garland."

He said that the golden-red eyes reflecting the shadow of the teenager in front of him seemed to melt and flow with red gems.

With the blazing heat of the flames, he gently wrapped Gallan in it.

Just like he has been doing all the time, cautiously and indulgently hold the teenager in his palm.

"I said, as long as you want, I will do it for you."

"Don't want to digress, answer me first..."

Garlan hadn't finished a word yet, and with a bang, the door was suddenly opened.

Garlan, startled by the sudden sound of the door panel, turned his head subconsciously and looked over there.

The chief priestess who had just left didn't know when to come back here, slammed the door open and broke in.

She gasped violently, seeming to be out of breath, her chest undulating.

Her curly hair, which had been neatly groomed in front of her forehead, scattered a strand of hair, which fell slightly messy on her cheeks.

Her eyes were fixed on Gallan, and the hand that had just pushed open the door was still pressed against the door panel, her fingertips trembling slightly.

Together, the two had never seen Tapti make such a rude or even offensive behavior, and Garland was surprised.

He looked at Tapti in consternation and asked, "Tapti, you forgot something here..."

The chief priestess did not answer.

She stepped into the door in one step.

Long brown hair flew up in the air, throwing away a long arc.

Can't wait to stretch out his hands, just one breathing time, he held Gallan in his arms before he could finish the second half of the sentence.

She hugged very tightly, very hard, as if holding the most precious treasure recovered and lost.

She lowered her head and squeezed her trembling lips deeply into the soft blond hair.

She didn't say anything, or maybe she couldn't make a sound at this moment, and could only hold her prince tightly in her arms with her hands like this.

The room was quiet for a long time, and no one spoke.

Quiet as if time had stopped at this moment.

Gallan let it be held by the other party dumbly, unable to react for a while.

In the chaotic mind, a ridiculous and impossible thought flashed through.

"Tap... mention?"

…………

A little fluorescent light flew out lightly, leaving a shallow light trace in the air that it floated through, and then disappeared in the sun without a trace.

Deep in the garden, Kehos was sitting under the big tree beside the briskly flowing stream, apparently taking this opportunity to be lazy for a moment.

He leaned against the thick trunk, his hands behind his head, his eyes closed, his expression relaxed and comfortable.

The sunlight passed through the dense canopy and spotted on his dark blonde short hair.

Suddenly, the heart palpitated.

Kehuos suddenly opened his eyes.

He saw a strange ray of light fluttering lightly in front of his eyes, turning in circles at once.

Very strange fluorescence, should have made him vigilant.

But for some reason, he looked at the fluorescent light, inexplicably intimate and familiar.

It was as if it belonged to him and was part of him.

After watching it for a while, Kehuos reached out and wanted to catch this fluorescence.

But the moment he just stretched out his hand, the fluorescent light that had been circling in front of him suddenly flew towards him, suddenly falling into his eyebrows.

Kehuos instinctively raised his hand to press his eyebrows.

The eyebrows suddenly became hot, like a flame burning on the forehead.

The burning sensation became more and more fierce, spreading from the eyebrows, and in a moment, it penetrated and spread to his entire body.

The brain exploded, and the green pupil suddenly enlarged.

Kehos gritted his teeth and pressed his head hard against his head, but the corners of his eyes twitched uncontrollably.

Numerous familiar scenes passed by in his mind, as if right in front of his eyes, as if yesterday.

He saw the turbulent battlefield.

He saw him kneeling on the cliff where the waves were roaring and crying.

He could feel the surging of his heart when he watched the teenager wearing the golden crown on his head in the bright sunlight.

He saw the strong back of the teenager on the wall of the sea city...

...

………………

Time seemed to be moving backwards quickly, re-branding scenes in his memory.

What finally settled in his mind was the moment he leaned over and knelt in front of the young blond child.

My prince.

From now on, I will be your guardian knight.

I will protect you until the dead.

………………

Fluorescently dancing like a small butterfly, dancing in the sun.

It accompanied by a clear breeze, silently sliding into the station of the Royal Guard on the side of the palace.

In the deep training ground, there was a faint and stern blame.

Xie Muer stood in front of all the subordinates in a simple and rigorous outfit, with a cold face and reprimanded them mercilessly.

A group of subordinates who lost to their leader one by one in the previous practice bowed their heads and were trained honestly.

Anyway, they were not the first day they knew the harsh attitude of their head.

Although they were a little bit dissatisfied at first, they only admired after seeing the harsh exercise that their head of group almost called self-masochism, and the terrible deeds that went uninterrupted every day.

Obviously it is already very strong, and now I am afraid that he can only play against the leader without falling down.

But even at this point, the head of the team did not slack off, and he still hone himself, for ten years, so that those who do not like his rigid personality can not help but respect their hearts.

The routine reprimanded his subordinates, and Xiemuer no longer stayed and turned away from the training ground.

The left subordinates looked at each other and could not help but smile with a bitter sigh of relief.

Although it is a good thing that the boss is strong, it is too harsh to be a bit overwhelming...

Stepping out of the gate of the training ground, a ray of sunlight shone down on Xie Muer, and the traces of dust on his clothes were extremely obvious.

He frowned, but quickly suppressed the unpleasantness in his heart.

Although he is a bit of a cleansing habit, it is inevitable to get dirty during training. Over the years, he has been used to it.

He glanced at his hand and raised a little restlessness.

No matter how strong he becomes, he always feels that it is not enough, far from enough.

He always felt that there was something very important that was lost from his hands again and again.

He couldn't help it.

He didn't know what that was, he just instinctively wanted to make himself stronger.

Perhaps it becomes stronger, and you will no longer feel the powerlessness.

In a moment of distraction, suddenly, a flash of light flashed over the corner of his eyes.

Xie Muer raised his eyes subconsciously and looked at the place where the light was refracted.

He saw a bright fluorescent circle around his eyes, and then fell to him lightly.

He raised his hand subconsciously to block it.

But that little fluorescent light passed through his palm and instantly fell into his eyebrows and disappeared.

The scorching flame suddenly spread across his eyebrows and burned his entire body.

In an instant, countless scenes passed by before his eyes.

He saw that night, he stood in the deep night, looked at the direction of Wang Ling, and watched silently all night.

The dew wet his temples.

He saw the burning red palace illuminating the crimson fire in the sky...

He saw the figure that fell from the cliff and he couldn't reach his hand...

He saw the unwashed blood stains remaining on the pale, dazzling stone wall...

... under the stone statue of Isdar, the boy fell in his arms, his hands stained with blood, and he heard his mournful cry...

…………

Clap.

Slightly inaudible.

A drop of water marks fell on Xie Muer's palm.

He lowered his head and stared blankly at the wet trace in his palm.

In the sunlight, a gleam of light appeared on his brown cheeks.

Unexpectedly.

But it is impossible to control.

………………

My prince.

Even if I give up everything, I want to protect you.

Even if you want to abandon my faith.

The author has something to say: 　　 Xiemuer is the only companion who has experienced several deaths of Gallan.

Therefore, his obsession is actually the deepest.

Okay, did you meet the word count this time? What is it~~
