The correct way to set things right in quick time travel

"Arthur, here!" Claude didn't notice the strangeness of Antonio and Albert, and waved excitedly at Arthur.

Arthur ran over briskly, without seeing Claude's arm on Zi Xiao's waist, and the silvery white fishtail exposed by his youth.

He just looked at the other person's eyes like this, and he was so excited that he didn't know what to do.

"So you're here." He stared at Zi Xiao intently, grabbed his arm and pulled it into his arms, but he didn't succeed, instead making Claude stagger.

Arthur finally realized that something was wrong, looked down, and his pupils shrank suddenly.There was a feeling of panic in his heart, but he forcibly shook it off, and nodded with a smile, "Claude, didn't you say you were going to find your mermaid, why are you here?"

Claude looked at Zi Xiao affectionately, and said with a smile, "He is my Lance. Lance, this is the Emperor Arthur of the Empire."

"I've seen Your Majesty." Zi Xiao greeted him coldly, obviously not particularly fond of Arthur.In other words, he has no affection for anyone, and even towards Claude, he is expressionless, without the slightest enthusiasm.

Arthur froze, his lips trembled, and he asked word by word, "You, yes, Lan, Si?"

"Yes." Zi Xiao raised his eyes and stared at him, his jewel-like pupils filled with a trace of coldness.Since the other party is not a lover, then he has no reason to be close, and his attitude will naturally change.

Arthur clenched his teeth, staring straight at the man wearing a butterfly mask, with the veins on his forehead looming.After a moment of silence, he raised his hand and lifted off the mask.He met Lance, but he obviously didn't feel anything at that time, probably the heartbeat just now was just a momentary illusion.

However, when he saw that beautiful face, his eyes instantly turned red, revealing a gloomy and cold light, "You are not Lance at all!"

He stubbornly believed in his own judgment.He felt that the other party was deliberately lying to him, just to not be with him.He is the emperor of the empire and is entitled to own everything in the empire.

Claude noticed Arthur's strong mood swings, subconsciously took a step forward, stood straight in front of Zi Xiao, and said in a deep voice, "Arthur, what do you want to do to my mermaid."

He resisted Arthur's approach with the gesture of protector and possessor.

Arthur's eyes were red, and he clenched his hands.He felt that he was about to die, his heart was throbbing so badly, his life and responsibilities were useless to him, because he couldn't get the love he wanted, and he couldn't bear the pain of marrying the one he loved to someone else with his own hands.

From Claude's eyes, he saw the other party's attitude of never giving in, and also saw a strong possessive desire.

He wanted to calm down, and wanted to tell Claude that he would not fight with him, but he stretched out his hand involuntarily, trying to touch Qing's cheek, but was grabbed by the wrist.

Claude simply said, "Your Majesty, please respect yourself. Lance is my mermaid."

Such words were undoubtedly cruel to Arthur, and what was even more cruel was the strangeness and coldness in the young man's eyes.He tried his best to hide his pain and act as if he didn't care, but his actions betrayed him.

He clutched the clothes on his chest, his eyes became more and more sinister.Maybe he's gone mad, he thought.But he is not crazy, he would rather be crazy.In this way, the empire can be abandoned in a grand manner, and the brotherhood of 30 years can be abandoned, and this person can be taken as his own.

"Your Majesty, the ball is coming to an end, I want to take Lance away first." Claude raised his hand and put Zi Xiao's mask on him again.He didn't want too many people to see his future wife.

"No need, I'll go by myself." Zi Xiao separated the man who was about to pick him up, endured the pain and turned the fish tail back into his legs, and walked away without changing his expression.

Claude hurriedly followed. After walking a few steps, he looked back at Arthur who was in a daze, gritted his teeth, and moved on.

Antonio and Albert stayed by Arthur's side silently, neither of them knew how to comfort him.They thought of the past 30 years, the years that the four of them had gone through together, and sighed regretfully.

This is fate.

Arthur didn't say a word, but the misery and bleakness on his face made people feel distressed.

When everyone dispersed and it was late at night, he sat quietly at the desk, recalling the news he had just received. They said that Claude had already sent Lance Young Piston to him. Only then did he feel that his heart was right Severe pain, tears pouring down?

When Antonio arrived in the early morning of the second day, he could smell the smell of alcohol in the room.Arthur stood motionless in front of the window, his back was very lonely.

"You said, suppose I listened to Claude's suggestion that day..."

"Arthur, I never assumed in my life, I thought you knew." Antonio interrupted him directly, "He already belongs to Claude."

Arthur lowered his eyes and remained silent. He thought for a whole night and wanted to withdraw that order selfishly countless times. Fortunately, the little reason left stopped him.

What he has to choose is not only love and friendship, but also Claude's meaning to the empire.

"I know." Arthur replied hoarsely, a deep sense of powerlessness welled up in his heart.what is love?He told himself that love is just a momentary enjoyment of the flesh, which is meaningless to him.Even though he understood that this was just self-deception, he could only bury his true feelings and continue to deceive.

I love him, but I can't be with him.He even imagined that if he snatched Lance from Claude, the empire would be destroyed.Compared with such tragic consequences, his love is not worth mentioning at all.

Therefore, he can't be sad, and he can't look forward to it. He can only try to forget the person last night and the heartbeat at that moment.

"Antonio, what gift do you think we should give Claude when he gets married?" He smiled softly, his brows gradually relaxed.He has nothing to be reluctant to do, isn't it just a lonely person to spend this life.He could do it before, and he can do it in the future.He didn't have to fight Cloud over a mermaid.He can't fall to that level.Really, he is the emperor of the empire, and he must not fall.

He told himself that, and he could only tell himself that.

Antonio breathed a sigh of relief, patted him on the shoulder and said, "I think he likes beautiful gems."

…………

"You said you were going to marry me in a week?" Zi Xiao stared at the handsome man in front of him, squinted his eyes, and said impatiently, "You are really sick." She doesn't love him but is still willing to marry him, even He took the Duchess' place.

Claude shook his head and chuckled, he was indeed sick.In fact, he is not particularly obsessed with Lance himself, but is obsessed with his beauty and bearing.

Lance is so unique.He would disdain a powerful man like him, and would rather endure severe pain to walk with his legs.He seems to be very smart, and his amber eyes always radiate wisdom.

"Did you just want to run away?" He changed the subject and smiled, "You almost slipped away. I don't understand why you have to leave, follow me, I can do everything you want for you .”

Zi Xiao raised his eyebrows, but didn't speak.Maybe working with this guy is a good option.He urgently needs a laboratory, as well as a training ground.

"Three chapters of the covenant. Don't restrict my actions; don't meddle in my affairs; don't come close to me." These three requests he made are completely unreasonable, especially the third one.

"The first two are fine, but the third is not. I won't have a physical relationship with you without your nod, but daily contact is a must." Claude thought for a while and proposed amendments.

After a little hesitation, Zi Xiao nodded in agreement.

"You rest first, and I will take you to a place tomorrow." Maybe after seeing that place, Lance will admire him and get closer to him.

…………

Early the next morning, Claude and Arthur asked for leave and took Zi Xiao to the training ground of the military headquarters.

The moment he entered, Zi Xiao's eyes lit up, staring intently at the tall and mighty mech in front of him.

"These are secretly developed by the empire, and they are still in the debugging stage. Albert's army and I will be the first batch of suitable personnel." Claude continued to show off, "Mechs are very demanding on personal physical fitness. High, only a very few people can match it."

Zi Xiao had been to the world where mechas existed before, and had more knowledge about mechas than he did, so he didn't have time to listen to him popularize common sense, so he said, "I want to go up and try."

Claude froze for a moment, put his arm around his shoulder and smiled, "You can't. The mermaid can't bear the heavy pressure inside."

It's really remarkable that Lance can freely switch his legs and fish tail, but it's still out of reach to get on the mech.At present, the use of mechas is still in the exploratory stage, and many excellent soldiers cannot overcome the heavy pressure inside, let alone a thin mermaid.

Zi Xiao glanced at him lightly, and said coldly, "How do you know if it will work if you haven't tried it?"

As he spoke, he walked to a mecha that had not yet been debugged, boarded the elevator, and entered the interior of the mecha amid the exclamations of Claude and everyone.

Looking at the complicated console, he slightly curled his lips, and his fingers moved quickly.It only took 1 minute to complete the debugging, and the mech was officially launched.

Coming up is a set of smooth and flowing movements, which only stunned the technicians below.Don't they all respond that the mecha's movements are sluggish and unable to achieve perfect coordination?What's going on with this one in front of you?Mutated?

Claude was also stunned. He rubbed his eyes and recalled the scene of the young man entering the mecha several times before he was sure that it was Lance, a mermaid that the world thought was extremely delicate.

This is fraud.It is impossible for a mermaid to have such a powerful strength.

"Claude, I have been notified that someone has entered the mecha that has not yet been debugged."

When Albert arrived at the military headquarters, Zi Xiao happened to come out of the rack.He frowned and walked to the technician, and naturally communicated with him, raising several issues that needed improvement.

The technician nodded repeatedly, gave a thumbs up, and praised his trial for being very valuable.After the discussion, several technicians glanced in the direction of Claude and Albert, seeming quite disgusted.The same is a soldier, look at this sharp opinion of others.

"He..." Albert swallowed, "He is the mermaid you took away yesterday."

Claude nodded, as if there were countless stars twinkling in his eyes.Sure enough, he snatched a unique treasure.No one can shine brighter than Lance.
