The air was as tight as a sieve, filtering out the noise of the crowd outside and the noise of the rolling waves, leaving only the words "Eric is my man" in Hancock's ears.
As if seeking confirmation, Hancock looked at Eric with tears in his eyes and watery eyes. His expression was like an abandoned animal. With his delicate face, he looked even more pitiful.
Kuang San looked at this scene with a half-smile, looking forward to what Eric would say to deal with such a complicated scene.
"Chitong is right." Chitong's truth also broke the prison in Eric's heart, and his mind, which had been imprisoned by public order and good customs for a long time, was like a wild horse galloping loose.
'I'm not a herbivorous harem male protagonist in a Japanese light novel, a loser who uses the Asashi label to flirt with girls, but doesn't do anything at the end of the story. '
' And Chitong's forthright speech seems to add fuel to my anger every time on critical occasions, but if I think about it carefully, could it be that Chitong is urging me to move forward in her own way? '
Eric seemed to have thought of something and turned his head to look at Chi Tong.
'Well, actually I was overthinking it. '
"Ah——!" Hancock let out a soft cry, his soft and boneless wrists pressed against his forehead, and his tightly grasped waist seemed to be unable to support the weight of his upper body. His body was leaning back exaggeratedly, and his thick black hair was Hair hanging down like a waterfall.
Then, Hancock's whole body seemed to have had her spine taken away, and she slumped on the floor dejectedly. Her messy bangs obscured her facial expression, but everyone present could clearly see her mood.
The aura of the defeated dog seeped out from every pore, and the blackened negative expression rolled and eroded on Hancock's body, gradually submerging himself and about to submerge the surrounding space.
The little love theater in Hancock’s head is back on air:
Eric turned his back to him and said with a sad face:
Eric hugged Esdeath and Kuang San:
The chuckles of the two women are simply the best background music to mock Hancock's failure.
The little theater of love is over.
"Hancock." Eric squatted down in front of her and carefully considered his words: "I..."
"You will never lose, I will never lose!" He whispered over and over again,
Hancock gave himself a meaningless breath, his tear ducts flushed his blurred vision like a flood, and big tears rolled down.
"Is there something wrong with me?" Hancock's blue pupils became even more crystal clear under the baptism of tears, and the stars in the night sky could not compare with the starlight in her eyes.
"This is not your problem." Even Eric felt that he was guilty, but this was his responsibility and no one could replace it.
Pushing a beautiful woman who likes you to other men? This is a plot that only happens on the streets!
"Sorry, although it's a bit shameless, but Hancock, you are also my woman."
"Huh?" The sobs paused, and Hancock looked up at Eric in surprise.
"Ouch~" The women around him took a breath, shocked by Eric's brave attacks in recent times.
Coupled with the recent training of Esdeath and Kuang San, Eric suddenly felt a kind of lofty ambition of "I want it all" in his heart.
"I hope your spear skills will improve faster than your skin thickens." Scathach turned the magic spear in his palm expressionlessly. Eric was worried that in the next second, the sharp tip of the spear would pierce him. To myself.
"Uh..." Eric was suddenly speechless.
Wiping away his tears, Hancock stretched out his weak white palms: "Eric, can you help me?"
Her delicate expression was completely unlike the usually domineering Pirate Empress.
Eric stretched out his hand to pull Hancock up, but she lay in Eric's arms, and the warm and soft touch immediately enveloped half of her body.
Eric turned to the others and said, "You guys go out first."
If you stay here, you can only watch Eric's unsatisfactory eight o'clock soap opera. Several people present did not object and turned around to leave the conference room. At the end of leaving, Kuang San thoughtfully closed the door of the conference room.
Heitong asked worriedly: "They won't cause any problems, right?"
Chitong's words are still direct: "If there is a problem earlier or if there is a problem later, the same problem will occur."
"Oh?" Esdeath looked Chitong up and down: "Your words are quite philosophical."
"I really want to join in too~"
Everyone was already immune to Miku's speech.
…
"Eric." Hancock rubbed his head against Eric affectionately: "Can you stay with me?"
Noticing Hancock's bright eyes, Eric also stared at her quietly, and a thousand words passed between their eyes.
Hancock looked straight at her, his eyes full of begging. Eric was so flustered by her stare that he subconsciously avoided her gaze.
Wenwen Township is the Tomb of Heroes, but I can't stop moving forward. I still have ideals in my heart and a career I want to work hard to complete.
Eric steeled himself: "Of course... no."
Seeing his beautiful eyes begin to accumulate tears again, Eric quickly explained: "This is all for our future!"
"our future?"
"That's right." Eric nodded: "If we don't overthrow the world government, our relationship cannot be clear. You are the king of Amazon Lily, and you need the title of Shichibukai to protect your own people."
A bitter taste came to his heart, and Hancock said in frustration: "How long will it take..."
Eric smiled lightly and took out a ring from his pocket. Golden light instantly filled the entire conference room.
"This, this is...?" Hancock looked at it blankly.
"This is pure gold."
Hancock opened his eyes wide and said with shock: "Pure gold? An ultra-rare metal that can give people eternal life?"
"That's right." Eric took Hancock's right hand, straightened her ring finger, and inserted it into the inside of the ring. The golden light emitted by the pure gold was gradually blocked by the slender fingers until the golden light disappeared.
"In this way, you will no longer be afraid of running out of time." Eric held Hancock's hands in front of his chest: "The love between us is eternal!"
"Is this a proposal?"
"Yes, this is a proposal." Eric did not deny Hancock's words: "From now on, you are mine."
Eric looked at Hancock's happy smile radiating from every hair. Even the sun in the sky couldn't compare to the brilliance radiating from her body.
Hancock's little theater in his head:
"Dang~dang~" the golden bells are telling happiness.
"Lord Snake Princess!"
"Lord Snake Princess!"
The citizens of Amazon Lily are chanting her name.
"Sister, congratulations on your reading!" The two sisters offered their sincere blessings.
Countless white doves symbolizing happiness are flying in the sky.
Wearing a snow-white wedding dress, holding blooming flowers, and wearing a transparent veil, Hancock walked towards Eric step by step.
Eric gently lifted her veil: "Hancock, you are so beautiful today."
"So happy--!"
Gently hugging Hancock who fell backward: "I will make you happy forever, sweetheart."
The silhouettes of the two people gradually get closer...
In reality, Hancock also closed his eyes and pursed his soft lips.
Faced with the universal gesture, Eric hesitated for a moment, then pressed it heavily, pursing his petal-like lips.
The fantasy wedding burst like a bubble, Hancock opened his eyes, and in front of him was the person he thought about day and night.
Happy tears fell from her eyes.
