A Tale of Strategies For the Throne

When Garlan opened his eyes again, it was already bright and he was already in the hotel room.

It seemed that after drinking that large bottle of alcoholic beverage, he was drunk and slept until dawn.

To be honest, I slept quite comfortably.

But luckily he got drunk last night.

Otherwise, it would be fine in the busy city, with no time to think too much, but once he lay in bed and the surroundings quieted down, the shameful scenes in the open-air theater that he had seen and heard at night would definitely be in his mind uncontrollably. The constant replay makes people toss and turn, unable to fall asleep.

You can imagine how upsetting that situation would be.

But this little drunkenness made Garlan completely forget about the embarrassing and shameful experience, and he had a good sleep full and comfortable.

After stretching, Garlan realized that he was the only one in the room.

There was a noise from the washroom next to him, and I guess Heimos must be washing in there.

Soon, what happened before he got drunk last night came back to his memory.

Well...last night...yesterday, it seemed that I had gained a lot of energy due to the drunkenness, and actually acted like Heimos.

...Okay, although Heimos was sitting on the stone bench at that time.

However, it is still considered a wall-dong!

The feeling I had when I said those words, ‘He is mine’, I feel a little bit refreshed in retrospect...

No, no, no, that's not right, that kind of middle-of-the-road behavior was just because he was drunk for a while and completely lost his mind. Normally, he would never do such childish things.

Speaking of which, I seem to have no memory after that.

He must have been carried back to the hotel by Heimos after he was completely drunk.

Garlan rubbed his head and thought like this. When he lowered his head, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

The clothes I'm wearing... don't seem to be the ones I wore yesterday.

Obviously, someone helped him change his clothes while he was asleep.

And the person who can help him change clothes...

The young man's fair face suddenly turned red.

In other words, after Heimos brought him back last night, did Heimos help him change, change, and change his clothes?

That, that...

Could it be that...when he was unconscious last night...that guy...did, did, did something?

That guy actually took advantage of someone's danger!

Garlan thought with a blush.

But no matter how hard he tried to recall, he had no memory at all.

Damn it, when he didn't know anything...

He has no consciousness, no feeling at all - this is too much!

No, no, no, he definitely didn't feel too much because he didn't have any memories.

He was referring to the excessive behavior of the guy who took advantage of others.

With such random thoughts in his mind, Garlan felt that his heart was beating violently, almost jumping out of his chest.

He hesitated for a while, then blushed and lowered his head.

He secretly pulled off his loose clothes and took a look out of the corner of his eye.

Well, it's clean, no traces whatsoever.

It seems... nothing happened...

There doesn't seem to be any strange feeling in the body.

…

.........In other words, nothing actually happened?

Huymos simply changed him into pajamas and did nothing else?

…………

……………………

Garlan instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

He calmed down from the panic, the heat on his face dissipated, and his violently beating heart gradually calmed down.

But this one calmed down.

Suddenly there was a strange feeling deep in his heart.

Obviously nothing happened, and he was obviously relieved, but strangely, he felt a very unpleasant feeling deep in his heart.

Garlan suddenly felt a little unhappy.

He himself couldn't tell why he was unhappy.

He was sitting on the bed in a daze. At this time, with a creak, the door of the bathroom was pushed open, and Heimos, who had just washed up inside, came out.

Heimos had obviously just taken a shower, and his wheat-colored skin exuded a faint moisture, which further revealed the tight and powerful muscles on his arms.

His hair was as wet as the night, with water droplets constantly dripping from the ends of his hair, and shallow traces of water streaked along his handsome cheeks.

The thin lips were stained with steaming mist, with a slight trace of moisture. The cold color was slightly darker and redder than usual, giving people an extremely sexy feeling.

"woke up?"

He said, water droplets from the tips of his hair dripping from his brown cheeks.

He smiled at Garlan.

"I've already bought breakfast."

After saying this, Heimos suddenly realized that something seemed wrong.

Garlan stared at him with an expressionless expression.

"What's wrong?"

He asked, walking over, leaning over, and reaching out to touch Garlan's forehead.

"My head hurts?"

he asked softly.

Gallan stared at his gentle and considerate lover who was obedient and protective of him as a treasure for a long time.

Then, he snorted, turned his head, and shook his face.

"Not as good as an animal."

Garlan hummed.

Heimos: "???"

A certain ancient man who had been sleeping for two thousand years and had no idea about this was completely confused.

…………

……………………

Naturally, he couldn't explain his unspoken little thoughts to the other party, so Garlan used the excuse that he was in a bad mood because he woke up in the morning with a hangover and a headache.

After all, he also knew that his temper was unreasonable.

However, once his temper was over, after breakfast and Heimos went out into the street, he couldn't help but think about it in his heart while looking absently at the decorated streets.

Something is wrong.

It was understandable at the palace. After all, King Camos and the others were watching, giving various warnings and guarding against him, so of course Heimos could not do anything.

But this had been going on for several days, and he and Heimos had been alone together for several days.

Although they would kiss frequently, apart from that, Heimos did not do any further behavior at all.

Even the great opportunity last night was...

This is completely unlike Heimos's character.

Garlan thought in confusion.

This guy is obviously a carnivorous beast, why did he suddenly turn into a vegetarian with no desires?

Garlan continued to think.

Usually in this case, the other person has moved on and the lover is no longer attracted to him, or...

However, Garlan knew very well that there was no possibility that he was unattractive.

He was the one who felt the deepest love for Hermos, which was more than anything else.

Hmm...then, if it weren't for the fact that I'm not attractive...

Garlan was suddenly startled.

Could it be that Heimos has been asleep for two thousand years, so... he can't do it anymore?

With such shock in his heart, Garlan stared at Heimos reflexively.

Keenly aware of the sudden glances of the people around him, Heimos turned his head reflexively and met Garlan's gaze.

He didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but he always felt that Garlan looked at him in a strange way, which actually made him feel a little uncomfortable.

So, he directly asked: "What's wrong?"

"No, it's nothing."

Garlan quickly showed a bright smile to hide his strange eyes.

"I'm just a little worried. Even with the power of the gods, your heart has stopped beating for more than two thousand years. Is your body really okay?"

"Why did you mention this suddenly?"

Heimos smiled and rubbed Garlan's head.

He said nonchalantly: "It's just that time stopped physically. When I woke up, my physical condition was exactly the same as that night two thousand years ago. There will be no problems."

"However, after such a long time, there may be some side effects. Otherwise, we should go back to the palace first and let the royal doctor check..."

Just as Garlan was trying to organize his words to persuade Heimos to check his body, a scream suddenly came from the side.

"Ah - found it!!"

Before Garlan finished speaking, the girl who shouted like this rushed over with a look of surprise on her face, reaching out to grab Garlan's arm.

The thing happened so suddenly and so unprepared that Garlan couldn't react at all.

Just as the girl was about to grab Garlan's arm, a big brown hand thrust out from the side to stop the girl from rushing towards Garlan.

In just an instant, the tall body of Heimos, who reacted quickly, had already blocked Garlan in front of him, preventing the girl from getting even half a step closer.

The girl who was glanced at by Heimos instinctively took a step back. The fear she felt when she was glanced at by that terrifying man immediately calmed her down after she was dizzy due to too much surprise.

When she came to her senses, she immediately realized that her behavior was too abrupt.

So, she quickly bowed her head and apologized.

"I'm very sorry. I was too impulsive."

She said nervously and anxiously, "Because I have been looking for you for a long time. I have been looking for you since last night. I finally found it just now. I was so excited for a while, so... I am really sorry!"

"Find me?"

Garlan came out from behind Heimos and asked doubtfully.

"What do you want from me?"

He has recognized that this girl is the girl who recommended him to the outdoor theater at noon yesterday.

Although he had an extremely painful experience because of this...

However, this girl was just enthusiastically introducing the celebration activities to tourists, and there was nothing wrong. Garlan would not unreasonably blame this girl for that tragic experience.

He was just surprised that he and this girl only had a one-time relationship, but the girl said that she had been looking for him since last night. What was going on?

"Is such that--"

The girl was about to say something eagerly when she suddenly paused and looked at their location and the people coming and going around them, as well as the passers-by who kept looking at Garlan because of his appearance, showing a troubled expression.

"It's a very important matter that can't be heard by others, and I won't be able to explain it for a while. So, please, can you go to a place with me?"

"well?"

The girl bent deeply and bowed her head to Garlan.

"I swear, I don't have any ill intentions, and I'm not a liar! Please come with me! It's really an important thing! An important thing related to this celebration!"

She begged Gallan almost desperately, looking at Gallan's eyes full of pleading.

"please!"

Seeing the girl desperately begging for him, Garlan nodded and agreed.

"I know, I'll go with you."

He said.

The girl looked at him seriously, not like someone with evil intentions, and the anxiety and panic on her face were genuine.

She looked like she was in very big trouble.

Garlan never hesitates to lend a helping hand to those who encounter difficulties.

Garlan's answer made the girl's eyes light up. She thanked her repeatedly, and then eagerly led Garlan and Heimos to the other side of the road.

The girl led Garlan and the two of them to a twists and turns, and arrived in front of a two-story house near the ruling hall.

Garlan looked around and realized that this was considered an area within the government district. Not far away, many city guards could be seen guarding the edge of the street.

When the girl trotted into the hall in a hurry, the hall was now a mess.

Some people were arguing fiercely, some had gloomy faces, and some were silent.

The atmosphere was terrible, almost everyone frowned tightly and seemed to be in a very bad mood.

The girl rushed in, grinning, and shouted happily.

"Found it! I found the person I was talking about!"

She was shouting happily here, and over there, standing among the crowd, a serious woman who was obviously in charge was rubbing her temples with her fingers anxiously.

"That's enough, Sithia, there's enough trouble already, don't add any more trouble!"

she said with great impatience.

The woman is in an extremely bad mood now.

Because of the accident last night, the planned and orderly celebrations and sacrifices were about to go wrong. She hadn't even closed her eyes since last night, and now she had a splitting headache.

Sacrifice is the most important activity on the day of the celebration and the top priority of the entire celebration.

The key to this is the actor who plays Prince Garlan.

After all, this celebration itself was held to express gratitude to the 'Prince of Garlan'.

You know, the actor who plays Prince Garlan spent more than half a month in advance to carefully select one from countless people.

Then during the half-month period, the etiquette instructor will make great efforts to train the actor's behavior and manners.

but--

Damn it!

The actor who was chosen from thousands of people actually sneaked away to attend an outdoor dance last night and fell so hard that his nose was bruised and his face was swollen.

As a result, it would be impossible for this person to appear in sacrificial activities and play the role of Prince Garlan.

But such a key sacrificial activity cannot be replaced by just anyone.

King Garlan's beauty is unparalleled in the world.

This is something that everyone in Aaron Landis knows, so the people who come to participate in the celebration have extremely demanding requirements for the actors in the sacrificial activities.

Therefore, if the actor fails to meet everyone's requirements, it will cause public dissatisfaction.

She finally managed to become the person in charge of the sacrificial activities in this celebration, and she worked hard to do a good job in the activities so that she would be more sure of her promotion in the coming year.

But she never expected that such an accident would happen at the critical moment.

From last night to now, she mobilized the staff to find many good-looking sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys as candidates.

But I don’t know why, but I always feel that it tastes a lot worse.

Either the appearance was not good enough, or the temperament was not right. After practicing for a long time, I reluctantly selected two or three. Although it was unsatisfactory, there was no other way but to let these few people go up.

In the past, all the actors in the past had at least half a month to learn how to behave, but now the few who are hastily selected can only catch up with the ducks and make up for the day.

Therefore, as the person in charge, she is very irritable now.

"Okay, Sisiya, the candidate has been decided and is currently undergoing emergency training. Forget about the one you brought."

The serious woman sat on the chair, tilted her head, rubbed her temples, and said with a tired look, "Apologise to him and let him leave."

"Please believe me, Lord Amy, the one I found is definitely more suitable than anyone else! Please let him try it first no matter what!"

"That's enough, Sithia, shut up!"

The woman, who was irritated by Sisia's insistence on arguing with her, turned around and scolded Sisia sternly.

She's bored enough as it is!

Can you please calm her down a little?

"For such an important thing, you can't just do it if you think it's suitable -"

Just when the angry woman suddenly raised her head and wanted to scold her subordinates mercilessly, the originally noisy hall suddenly stopped as if time had stopped.

The woman opened her mouth, the rest of her scolding sound stuck in her throat, and she never made any sound again.

Like everyone in the hall, she stopped all movements and looked at the blond boy who walked in from the door.

At this moment, there was silence in the hall.

Only the bright sunlight fell quietly and fell on the golden hair.

It illuminated the young man's face like light.

The author has something to say: I play myself.
