"…………"
Morrigan had a dream.
In other words, she thought she was dreaming.
In her hazy state of consciousness, she felt like she was wrapped in a gentle wave, standing shoulder to shoulder with the stars in the sky, overlooking the lights of the world, and flying lightly from the clouds.
Perhaps it was because of the busy schedule during this period, or perhaps because the daughter's red wine produced by Jingliu was too sweet. She felt that her body was more tired than ever before. Her limbs seemed to be filled with mercury. She could not lift a finger, and they were falling heavily. .
Morrigan was afraid of tiring the "waves", so she exerted all her strength and transformed back into her human form while half asleep.
(This way... it should be fine...)
She didn't know if it was an illusion, but the moment she turned into a human form, she heard someone taking a gentle breath next to her ear.
"Wait, put on your clothes..."
"...That's all, it doesn't matter. Everyone is here."
"I will cover your body with the Cloud Song Technique, and you can continue to sleep."
Immediately afterwards, Morrigan felt like she had fallen into a warm eggshell, surrounded by warm and moist water vapor. She felt as safe as returning to the dark sea where she was born, and the slight chill in her body disappeared. .
Someone picked her up through the eggshell and carefully placed her on the flat bed. They also laid a layer of warm and soft cloth outside the eggshell, which seemed to still have body heat that had not yet dissipated.
"Bai Heng is drunk. I don't know where you are staying. Just rest here tonight. I will take you back early tomorrow morning."
The voice continued.
"...Now that I think about it, I was focused on Vidyadhara's internal affairs, clearly coveting your care, but knowing very little about your life outside. It was indeed my fault. If it hadn't been for today's banquet, I wouldn't have even had the chance to take care of you."
For some reason, Morrigan felt that voice was very sad.
"no……"
no.
not like this.
I didn't come here just to hear your sad voice.
I know.
I've always known it.
I know that you are different from me. In order to protect the "human" world, you actively choose to give up the flying dragon.
Because I am also a dragon, I can understand what a gentle and noble sacrifice it was.
Because I think this sacrifice is heartbreakingly beautiful, that's why I landed next to you.
Whether it is your loneliness, confusion, loneliness or anger, or the trace of joy that I finally caught in it, I greedily want to drink it all in one gulp, not wanting to leave it to anyone.
So, Danfeng.
My gentle and beautiful dragon.
You don't have to feel sorry for me.
Because, from the beginning, it was for my own wish——
"Morrigan?"
"Dan, Feng..."
Morrigan tried hard to open her eyes, but the strong smell of alcohol steamed her brain, and her vision was as erratic as the air scorched by the scorching sun in midsummer. She could only vaguely see Dan Feng's face so close at hand, like a round wheel. Looking down at her as quietly as the cold moon.
No, if it's the moon, it's too close.
(...By the way, this is a dream.)
(Only in dreams will the moon be so close to me.)
"Morrigan, are you awake? Wait a moment, I'll get some tea."
Dan Feng knew nothing about Morrigan's mental activities, so when he saw her opening her eyes drowsily, he temporarily relaxed and turned around to walk towards the low table where the tea sets were placed.
Everyone says that "Yinyue Lord" has a noble status, and only others serve him, not him, but this is not the case.
As one of the most talented Dragon Masters, Dan Feng is not only brave and good at fighting, he is also proficient in magic and is good at controlling water flow to heal others.
In the ancient sea where Vidyadhara was reborn, he personally picked up the baby born from the egg.
On the battlefield where evil things were rampant, he also personally cared for seriously injured soldiers.
Looking after a drunk girl was nothing more than a piece of cake for him.
...Originally, this should be the case.
"Sit up slowly, Morrigan. Can you drink by yourself?"
Dan Feng supported Morrigan's shoulders, letting her straighten her upper body from the low couch, leaning on his shoulder to sit firmly, and then handed the teacup to her lips.
"...Yeah. Thank you..."
"……You're welcome."
"…………"
"…………"
Morrigan always had endless words to say and endless songs to sing, and her bronze-like laughter never stopped. It was rare for her to be quiet for a while, but Dan Feng felt a little unaccustomed to it.
"...Morrigan, don't worry. You don't have to rush to leave today. Take your time and don't choke yourself."
He put one hand around Morrigan's shoulders and held the tea cup with the other. He patted her back from time to time to help her calm down, just like feeding water to a newborn bird. He watched her hold the cup with both hands and take a sip. Take a small sip and sip gently, then work your throat to swallow.
"call……"
Morrigan drank more than half of the cup and felt that her mind was much clearer. She turned to look at Dan Feng in front of her. She felt that it was hazy and unclear. Her vision was barely clearer than before, but it was still as if she was in the drizzle. The mountains are generally empty.
(Well, this is indeed a dream.)
(I have always been more energetic and energetic than Dan Feng, so I should be the one taking care of him.)
(Only in dreams can I imagine him taking care of me.)
(Since it’s a dream, it shouldn’t matter if your actions are a little out of the ordinary, right?)
- She was awake, but not at all.
A completely unconscious dragon would obviously have a very different definition of "slightly out of line" than ordinary people.
After all, the only difference between her and normal people is "normal", "normal" and "human".
"Morrigan, it's time for me to go."
When Dan Feng saw Morian waking up, he let go of her shoulders and distanced himself from her again.
"I won't stay in the room tonight, you have a good rest..."
——That happened in an instant.
Dan Feng was about to get up, but Moiraine, who was immersed in her sweet dreams, suddenly leaned forward without warning, reached out to hold his cheek, and forcibly pulled his upper body towards her.
Immediately afterwards, the girl's confused face came closer, her soft lips brushed against his face, and fell on her lips like a petal.
"...!!"
Dan Feng's drinking capacity and taste were much better than others, but he drank a lot tonight. After all, his reaction was a little slower than usual, and he was unable to push her away immediately.
So, Morrigan instinctively seized this momentary opportunity, wrapped her arms around the back of his neck, changed the angle of her face against his face, and pressed her lips firmly against him.
"Um……"
"...No, I..."
"…………"
For Dan Feng, it is not difficult to get rid of her at this time.
But from beginning to end, he didn't move.
Not only did he not move, but even the words that he blurted out subconsciously were blocked by the girl's drunken breath.
The breath was so warm and peaceful that the arrogance, majesty and dignity that "Yin Yuejun" had upheld all his life melted in this gentle kiss like a dragonfly dripping water.
The chains that bound the "Moon Drinker" were loosened, but "Dan Feng" did not reject Morrigan.
From the first time they met, he was not good at rejecting her.
Rather, he needed to use rock-solid rationality to control his instincts and control his teeth and tongue in order to force himself not to respond to her.
It is conceivable that when both parties are drunk, it will not be a gentle response.
"Hmm...huh..."
Morrigan was also very restrained in her dream. The kiss did not last long. She quickly let go of Dan Feng, resting her head on his shoulder and whispering softly like she was dreaming:
"By the way, I almost forgot. I was attending Zhang Luo's birthday party today, and I haven't told you properly yet..."
——Thank you for being born in this world.
——Thank you for accepting me as a part of your life.
"'Thank you, Dan Feng. It's great to have you here.'"
"It's so wonderful that I can come to Luofu and see you... Huh..."
The alcohol surged up again, this time completely engulfing Morrigan's faint consciousness, dragging her all the way into the abyss of deep sleep.
Before falling into the dreamless abyss, Morrigan felt someone slowly lay her body down, brushing away her sweat-wet bangs, and something cold and soft pressed against her forehead.
"...go to sleep."
"I am very satisfied to see you in this life, hear these true words, and spend such a good time..."
"As long as that's the case, I'll be very satisfied."
The last words were like a sigh.
…
…
…
Whether it was luck or misfortune, when Moiraine woke up in Danfeng's room the next morning, she had completely forgotten the memory of last night's drunkenness, not even a single fragment was left behind.
"Good morning, Dan Feng."
Facing Dan Feng, who came to take care of her early in the morning, she drank water from his hand while smiling as brightly as ever.
"I was so happy yesterday. Sorry, I fell asleep during the festival dance, and I have been unconscious since then... I didn't cause you any trouble, right?"
"…………"
Dan Feng stared at her with a complicated expression for a long time, and finally said nothing. He just turned his head calmly and looked at the red maple falling quietly outside the window.
"It doesn't matter, just forget it. There are countless things you can do while drunk."
Morrigan: "?"
She was vaguely aware of what happened last night, but there was only a smooth blank left in her cerebral cortex, and she could not salvage it no matter how hard she stretched out her hands.
No matter how she asked, Dan Feng just maintained that mask-like expression of indifference, insisting on one answer and never letting go:
"It's nothing, don't worry about it."
"Really? It's really nothing? Dan Feng, don't be embarrassed. If I offend you in any way when I'm drunk, you must tell me! I will find a way to correct it!"
"It's nothing really. I... don't take offense."
"???"
*
Dan Feng originally thought that he would be content to spend this blooming season with Morrigan, and then watch her leave with pure gratitude and blessings.
When he realized how wrong he was, everything was out of control.
As for the cause of the turning point——
It probably started one day when Morrigan threw the exploding quantum reactor out of the cave with her bare hands in order to protect the people of Luofu, and came to him for treatment with half-body burns.
