A Tale of Strategies For the Throne - 177. Chapter 177
Even in his anger, King Camos’ eyes were extremely sharp.
Huimos clenched his hand on the ground, and he saw it.
“It seems you don’t want to.”
Camos said with a sullen face.
This time, Hiemos, who had been silent with his head down, raised his head and faced the angry lion king.
“Yes.”
He said.
The golden red eyes are astonishingly bright like the flames of the setting sun burning on the horizon at this moment.
He looked straight at Camos, without flinching or avoiding.
The anger in King Camos’s heart was still blazing, and he forcibly resisted not smashing the heavy sword on Huimos, but at this moment, he looked at the young man with the eyes of Huimos. With the persistent look on his face, he calmed down, who was still in a rage just now.
What Xinyas said to him made him unbelievable.
He knew that Huimos had always loved Gallan, even better than him.
Many people think that Heimos is very similar to him, powerful, has a reputation on the battlefield, and his reputation for bravery is well-known in the world. Therefore, those people think that Huimos is more like his successor.
But King Camos knew very well in his heart that although he was strong and could protect Aaron Landis on the battlefield, he could only be said to be ordinary in terms of governing the country. For so many years, he just barely maintained Aaron Landis. Sri Lanka is in a situation that is neither good nor bad.
Huimos is very similar to him in martial arts, but the character of Huimos is much more extreme than him. If Huimos succeeds to the throne, it is likely to turn Aaron Landis into a military and military nation. .
The final result is either the glory that rises above the clouds, or the eternal destruction-
But that was not what he wanted to see.
He did not ask Aaron Landis to rise above the clouds in the flames of war and blood, but only hoped that Aaron Landis would live forever and that Aaron Landis’s people would be happy and healthy forever.
And only Garlan can realize his hope.
Gallan is completely different from Huimos. He may not be as strong as Huimos, but it is because of this that he can understand himself more clearly, and will never mistake him because of blindly believing in his own power. Go astray.
He is intelligent, upright, and able to treat others fairly.
He knows what to do and what not to do, sticking to his limits.
He is not strong, but he never takes a step back when he needs to take responsibility.
He is more tenacious than anyone.
Most importantly, he never regarded his people and Aaron Landis as his possessions, but regarded them as beings he wanted to protect.
——Yes, the king is not the oppressor over Aaron Landis, but the guardian of Aaron Landis.
The child is like the sun in the early morning.
Bright, but not dazzling.
Warm, but not scorching.
His light may not be dazzling, but it is soft and long flowing, unknowingly, attracting people one by one to his side, willingly enshrining loyalty in front of him.
That child is his brother.
Is the son of the gods.
It is the future of Aaron Landis.
…………
“Huimos, I know, you have always liked Garlan, since childhood.”
Calm down a bit, King Camos spoke.
“Your care for Garlan is not inferior to me. Therefore, no matter who provokes me here, I never believe that you will do anything to harm Garlan.”
“And the fact is true. In order to lead your troops to save Garlan, you even put yourself in jail, and even saved your life to save him from the sea of flames. That’s why I made up my mind to establish Garlan as Prince prince, because I believe that no matter what happens, you will protect him.”
The Lion King let out a long breath, as if sighing.
“But I always thought that you like him the same as me, it’s because of your brother’s love and affection for your younger brother.”
He said, “I never thought that you would…”
He smiled bitterly.
“Yeah, or I’m too dull, think about it now, the way you look at him, everything you say and do to him, you can vaguely see that it is… but I have never thought about it in that way.”
“Huimos, although I have never regarded you as my king brother, but I also watched you grow up. It is impossible to say that I have no affection for you at all.”
Although he always looked cold towards Huimos, King Camos would never show up as a king or make a little temper unreasonably when he was only dealing with people close to him.
Huimos is one of them.
On the surface, he always likes to teach Huimos, but he has been watching his growth, secretly instructing people to protect him, and honing him step by step.
Seeing Huimos grow up to this way, he didn’t say anything, and he was very relieved.
But now…
Raising his hand, King Camos pulled out the huge sword that had pierced into the bluestone ground, and put it into the scabbard as if it were.
“I always think that Garlan is on the throne, and you are protecting him as a general. You guard Aaron Landis together. This is the best way.”
“Because of this, I sent you to the Northern Army for training, and then I recalled you back to the city not long ago.”
“But now, because of your mind, this plan is impossible.”
“Huimos, Garland is my chosen successor and the next king of Aaron Landis. He is more important than anyone. I will not allow any unstable factors to approach him.”
The pressure in the room caused by the lion king’s anger disappeared a little bit. Although King Camos’s eyes were still sharp, they no longer contained anger.
The tone of his speech is also extremely calm.
However, it was this calm tone and words that pierced Huimos’s chest like a sharp edge.
“Gallan is still young and doesn’t understand feelings. When he grows up a little bit, he will fall in love with a beautiful and gentle girl. He will be blessed by all the people of Aaron Landis and marry his princess in the eyes of everyone. ”
“When their child is born, the whole Aaron Landis will cheer for this child, and this child will become Aaron Landis’ future king.”
Every time King Camos said something, Huimos’s lips tightened and his fingers clasped.
In the end, his knuckles were tightened to the point where his complexion was almost pale.
“Himos, your feelings may be real, but they will drag Garland into the abyss.”
The Lion King shook his head heavy but resolutely.
There was no room for him to look at Huimos’ eyes.
“I will not allow you to stay by Garlan’s side.”
He said, word by word.
“As a king, I gave you an order to set off immediately and head to the Northland. I will not return to the city within ten years!”
…………
……………………
It was late at night, just when Gallan was about to go to bed and rest, suddenly the half-open window was opened.
A figure turned in through the window.
Gallan felt that he could guess who it was without having to look at it.
He glanced at Heymos, and was about to say something like this guy who always likes to go over walls and windows to sneak into other people’s houses late at night, but before he had time to speak, Heymos who had landed had already walked over quickly. .
Suddenly, Huimos stretched out his hand and hugged Garlan.
He hugged him tightly, and held Garlan tightly in his arms.
He bent down and buried his head deeply in Garlan’s neck.
He just hugged and said nothing.
The moonlight like shattered silver shone from the wide open window and fell on him, on his fine black hair scattered on Garlan’s shoulders.
“……What’s wrong?”
Although he couldn’t see Heymos’ face, Garland also felt that Heymos was in a bad mood.
The whole body of the person holding him exudes an indescribable feeling, as if…sorrowful.
He hesitated for a moment, the hand that he wanted to push away from Heymos turned into a loop around Heymos, and patted his back lightly, as if soothing.
“What’s wrong?”
Garlan asked in a low voice.
It was silent for a long while, if it weren’t for the strength of the fingers of the person holding him clasped on him, he almost thought that time had stopped at this moment.
After a long time, a muffled voice came from his shoulder.
“King Camos asked me to set off to the Northland…tomorrow.”
Gallan was startled.
“Is the Gaishu country coming to trouble again?”
“…”
“Himos?”
“I will probably stay in the Northland for several years.”
“Huh? Why?”
Garlan asked reflexively, “Didn’t you just come back from there? Why do you want to pass it again?”
Huimos did not answer, but hugged him harder and harder.
Gallan was at a loss for a moment. For some reason, perhaps he was infected by the strong emotion that Heimos almost exudes, and he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
No matter how he refused in the past, Huimos stayed by his side resolutely, and he was helpless.
But when Heymos really wanted to leave him, he actually felt a little confused in his heart… Obviously more than four years ago, when Heymos went to the North, he didn’t feel that way at all, why now… …
…………
This sense of loss is like losing something familiar and accustomed to…
When Garlan was in a trance, Huimos had let go of his hand.
He straightened up and lowered his head to meet Garlan’s gaze.
“Gallan,” he said, “I want to kiss you.”
“Huh? No, wait, wait, this…”
“I want to kiss you.”
Huimos said, looking at the boy in front of him, he repeated these words stubbornly.
The silver-like shards of light shining in from the window reflected on that handsome face, hiding the other half in deep shadows.
There was a cold glimmer at the corners of the thin lips, as if there was no temperature at all.
“…”
Garlan looked at those golden-red eyes, had reached his throat and refused, and swallowed slowly for some reason.
Perhaps it was because of the way Hiemos looked at him at the moment.
The stubborn and eager ones, even if they were suppressed hard, could not suppress a trace of pain.
It was the trace of pain that made his heart palpitating, so he couldn’t say anything to refuse.
“…Just… this time.” The boy hesitated, “This has no other meaning…just, it’s just a parting kiss…Wait, uh!”
Before Garland could finish speaking, Huimos had already held his face, leaned over, and kissed heavily.
Unlike the very gentle kisses of the previous few times, even if it is eager, it is gentle, with a kiss with the most compassionate feeling.
At this moment, Hiemos’ kiss was extremely fierce.
It was like a vicious kiss that wanted to swallow Garlan’s whole body and bones into his abdomen, like a living beast.
However, there was a trace of unspeakable distressing emotions in Piansheng’s cruel intentions, which prevented Gallan from getting angry. He could only subconsciously grasp Heimos’s back, closed his eyes, and passively opened it. With his lips, with some difficulty bearing the suffocating request from the other party like a storm.
He even felt that his lips were already aching, and he didn’t know if it was broken.
An almost crazy kiss that lasted for an unknown amount of time.
When it was over, Gallan felt that his lips were already painful, and his brain was a little empty. He could only instinctively open his mouth and breathe quickly, with a crimson color all over his cheeks.
Huimos looked down at him, his eyes deep.
After a while, he leaned over and lightly licked the blood stains from the corners of the lips that he broke because of his loss of control.
“Wait for my return, Garland.”
He heard Huimos speak softly in his ear.
There was a slight pause for a few seconds.
He heard Hiemos’ breathing suddenly rush, and then a very soft, inaudible voice sounded in his ears.
“……I beg you.”
Gallan’s eyes suddenly widened.
Before he could say anything, Huimos had let go of him, turned, jumped, and jumped out of the window.
Soon, the figure disappeared into the night.
Gallan stared at the figure that had melted into the darkness, and couldn’t make a sound for a while.
He didn’t know how hard it was for Huimos to give up his dignity to say these words.
But he knew that at the end of the last word, the little trembling sound that seemed to be mixed with pain made his chest tremble.
【I beg you. 】
…………
Leaping off the high fence, Huimos walked forward quickly.
He hung his head slightly, dark hair scattered from his forehead, throwing his eye sockets into deep shadows, making it difficult to see the expression on his face at the moment.
Under the fence, someone is leaning against the wall.
The moonlight scattered on the earth illuminates the man’s golden hair, and also illuminates the black eye patch on the man’s face.
Kayhus put his arms around his chest, stepped back on the wall with one foot, and leaned against the wall.
He stared at Huimos’s back.
Even if he didn’t get close, he could feel the awe-inspiring breath emanating from Heimos, like a blade, with a deep suffocating aura, which made people shocking.
Kaihus frowned.
Since that day, he has stayed outside the prince’s palace almost every night.
If Huimos had to come to the prince at night after being warned by him, he would act unceremoniously, and even if he committed the crime, he would have to forcibly stop the other party’s behavior.
But these days, Huimos seemed to be very quiet.
Just today…
When Kayhos was about to leave tonight, he was surprised to see Heimos suddenly appear, and when he was about to do it, Heimos suddenly said a word.
Huimos said that King Camos ordered him to leave for the Northland tomorrow and not return to the city within ten years.
Kayhus’s heart chuckled.
King Camos got it!
Before he recovered from the shock, Huimos had jumped over him and jumped onto the wall.
He subconsciously turned around and wanted to stop him, but suddenly, with a move in his heart, he stopped inexplicably, and watched Heimos sneak into the prince’s palace again.
【Not allowed to return to Wangcheng within ten years. 】
These words of Huimos echoed in his mind several times.
Finally, Kaihuos sighed long.
He turned around, leaned his chest with his hands on the wall, and waited quietly.
Half an hour.
The blond knight said to himself in his heart.
Within half an hour, His Royal Highness could not come out, so he went in to do something.
…………
At this moment, looking at Huimos’s back and forth, Kaihus’s eyes were extremely complicated.
He remained leaning against the wall and didn’t move for a long time.
He stared ahead until Huimos completely disappeared into the night.
I don’t know how long it has passed, maybe just a while, maybe a long time has passed.
In the end, the blond knight could only sigh for a long time, stood up, and left here.
He thought, to use a proverb that the world often says, that is…
[The goddess Aphrodite mercilessly threw the hyacinth flower into the man’s hand. 】
Hyacinth, a desperate love, a love that is destined to end without a disease.

……………………
In the early morning, the bright but not dazzling sun rose slowly from the horizon.
The wind blew from the sky, blowing through the sky, shaking the canopy, making the dense branches and leaves rustle. It pounced from high in the air, skimmed over the ground, and lifted up the long mane of the crimson horse standing quietly on the ground, making it undulate like waves.
It was too early, and the gate of the city had just opened. Most of the people in this city have not yet awakened from their deep sleep.
Therefore, this place is quiet, with only a few passersby entering and leaving the city gate.
These passers-by secretly looked at the group of knights standing outside the city gate on horseback in leather armor with curious eyes.
At this moment, following Huimos was his subordinate Soga, Nanna’s priest, and dozens of knights who followed him.
The order given by King Camos to go to the North was too hasty and urgent, and most of the people in the royal city didn’t even know about it.
Therefore, almost no one came to see off.
Riding on the crimson horse, Huimos raised his head high, as if looking for something.
The jet-black hair was blown from the cheeks by the wind, revealing the rough lapis lazuli earrings on the ears.
The morning sun reflected a clear luster on the lapis lazuli earrings.
Finally, his gaze was fixed in one place.
On the high wall, the boy stood there, and the bright blond hair reflected the sunlight into Hiemos’ eyes.
The golden light fell into his pupils, as if driving away the shadows deposited under his eyes, causing his originally cold eyes to rise a little warmth and give them a little light.
Garlan was standing on the wall, looking down at Huimos, the wind passing the wall raised his long golden hair.
Kaihus stood quietly behind.
After a while, Garlan raised his hand and waved gently at Heimos.
Then he turned and left.
When the golden color disappeared from the bottom of the eyes, the golden red eyes seemed to be shrouded in shadow again, and they became a little deeper.
Huimos turned his head, stroked the steed under him lightly, and then squeezed the reins.
Beside him, Soga, who was also riding a horse, glanced at him and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
“You can’t control your own destiny if you live below people. Just a word from the superior can easily veto you.”
Suojia’s voice was soft and deep.
“Just like now, King Camos will drive you out of the royal city, but you can’t resist at all.”
“His Royal Highness.”
He said,
“Only by becoming the master and taking everything in your own hands can you get what you want.”
Huimos didn’t speak, his face was cold, as if he hadn’t heard what Soga said.
But his hand holding the rein clenched tightly at this moment, betrayed him and exposed the waves in his heart at this moment.
He still said nothing.
The next second, he flicked the rein and galloped away.
He lowered his head slightly, and the black hair on his forehead was dancing in the wind, revealing the dark blue God of War rune on his forehead.
Little by little, the huge royal city disappeared behind him.
The sound of the wind whizzed past his ears, scratching his cheeks, it was cold, but in the bottom of his heart there seemed to be a fierce fire burning fiercely.
He headed north.
——Only by becoming the master can you get what you want——
…………
……………………
A few days later, in a remote, dimly lit room, there was a low voice of dialogue.
“Ready?”
“Yes, everything is arranged.”
“Then do it, kill that one.”
The voice was suppressed very low, with a trace of old hoarseness.
“Tomorrow is the best opportunity. It must be a one-shot kill.”
In the shadow, the man said so quietly.
“This time, we must get rid of Prince Garland and welcome the deported Prince Huimos back to the palace.”

Now it’s the end of the year, and everyone knows that it’s the busiest time for work.
I work overtime almost every day, and I have worked very hard to ensure that it is updated.
However, from tomorrow until the end of the year, the tasks assigned to me make me have to start running around in various towns and villages. Sometimes I may not be able to return at night, even if I come back, it will be more than ten o’clock.
So, I’m sorry, this kind of work intensity is really completely out of codewords.
I can only ask you for a year-end leave.
Sorry, I’m afraid it’s only on New Year’s Day to ask everyone about the festival again. I hope you can understand.
