Dressed as the only Omega in the Star Military Academy

Chapter 722 Good Luck

Stuka Lumin's Adam's apple rolled a few times unconsciously. He was already agitated by Lu Chihuan's simple words, as if a feather was gently tickling his heart.

It itches terribly.

When he heard the other party inviting him out, he agreed without much thought, as if he was afraid that Lu Chihuan would go back on his word.

But I just agreed to it.

Stuka Lumin felt that he had spoken too quickly, as if he was very impatient.

So he coughed.

His fingers were still stroking the five-colored rope on his wrist, but he said to himself in a slightly stiff voice, "Anyway, most of the things that needed to be dealt with have been dealt with, and I am indeed a little tired of staying in this palace."

Lu Chihuan laughed when he saw that Stuka Lumin agreed readily.

He smiled.

The dimple at the corner of his mouth was revealed. His facial features were originally extremely delicate and beautiful, just like a porcelain doll. The dimple made his smile look as if it was filled with honey.

People can't help but taste the hint of sweetness.

"That's fine."

"It's better to do it now than to wait for a good day. Why don't we go out and take a walk now?"

He spoke.

"If there's any place you want to go or anything you want to play, just tell me and I'll go with you today."

Stuka Lumen listened.

I just felt that my heart was like a small pond of water, almost filled to the brim, and even about to overflow, with Lu Chihuan's concern that was as gentle and endless as running water.

It is undeniable that——

A friend like Lu Chihuan is impeccable.

She would comfort Stuka Lumin when he was feeling down, and would do everything she could to cheer him up, while at the same time not placing too much burden on him.

If such a good person becomes a partner, he or she will definitely bring happiness to the people around him or her.

Unfortunately.

He didn't seem to have any extra thoughts about himself, and when the other party completely recovered his memory, his attention would definitely fall on his elder brother again, and then everything would return to normal.

The thought of this.

Stuka Lumin felt as if something had stung him hard in the heart.

There is an inexplicable pain.

To be honest, he is not a good person, otherwise how could he restrain those elders under his command who are relying on their seniority and the foreigners who are ready to seize the tomb of their mermaid tribe.

If it were in the past.

He would probably just force the person to stay by his side, to be with him day and night, to make it impossible for the person to avoid him, and at the same time not to let him completely recover his memory. In this way -

There will always be some emotions brewing.

But Lu Chihuan’s identity is too sensitive now, and he doesn’t want to hurt his elder brother, so he can only suppress his inner desire and package all distracting thoughts as friendship.

As long as he closed his eyes.

If you hypnotize yourself and don't expose it, everything will still be on the right track, still like the calm surface of the water, without any unexpected waves.

"it is good."

He nodded.

The pair of eyes as red as pigeon blood looked at Lu Chihuan quietly, but they no longer had the brutality and danger that they had when they first met, as they had walked through a sea of ​​blood and corpses. Instead, their eyes were very soft.

After receiving a positive response from Stuka Lumin, Lu Chihuan stood up.

He looked at Stuka Lumen with a smile, "Then let's go."

"Just to be on the safe side."

"You'd better change your clothes. After all, the gems on your clothes are too dazzling. I estimate that we will be surrounded by others before we walk out of the palace for less than a few dozen meters."

"Even if I want to relax at that time, I will probably be disturbed by others."

Lu Chihuan hasn't forgotten yet.

The other mermaids of the mermaid tribe both respect and fear Stuka Lumen. Who knows what expressions they will show if they see their Majesty appear outside the palace later.

To know.

Stuka Lumin has always loved his people. Although he never mentioned his people's fear and panic of him, he must feel very uncomfortable if he occasionally thinks of it.

Lu Chihuan asked Stuka Lumin to stroll outside the palace to relax him.

Instead of causing trouble for others.

So he planned to travel low-key this time with Stuka Lumin.

It would be best if no one could recognize them.

Stuka Lumen was not worried about being disturbed by other people. After all, he had long been accustomed to all kinds of looks from other people, such as admiration, disgust, fear, etc., so he could ignore them well.

just now.

His attention was on something else instead. "Don't you like the way I dress?"

talking.

He frowned and sat up straighter.

The gems and gold ornaments on the clothes collided with each other as he moved, making a crisp "ding-dang-dang" sound, which sounded quite pleasant to the ears.

When Lu Chihuan heard this, he couldn't help but touch the tip of his nose.

Say something you don't like.

Not really.

After all, Stuka Lumin has a very handsome and noble appearance, and wearing these accessories does not look out of place. Instead, it adds a bit of exotic beauty.

Especially pleasing to the eyes.

"No."

He stretched out his hand and scratched his cheek a few times, and finally chose to tell the truth, "I just don't want you to attract too many people's attention outside. I'm worried that their gaze will annoy you."

Stuka Lumen raised an eyebrow.

In his mind, he had automatically replaced the words "I don't want you to attract too many people's attention outside" with "I only want you to see me alone", so that he curled up the corners of his lips with a slight pleasure.

This time he didn't say anything, but obediently changed into simple clothes.

but.

Not only did he change his accessories, he also dyed his long silver hair black and tied a very light silk scarf around his neck. The scarf was so large that it could cover the lower half of his face by just lifting it up a little.

At first glance.

It's like he's a completely different person.

Lu Chihuan was stunned when he saw this.

He didn't expect that Stuka Lumin would listen to him so much.

For a moment, I felt a little embarrassed. "Why did you dye your hair and cover your face? This hair dye shouldn't be harmful to your body. Will it be difficult to wash it off..."

Listening to Lu Chihuan’s muttering.

Stuka Lumin did not feel disgusted, but answered his question patiently, "The silver-white hair color is too conspicuous."

"The hair dye is made from pure natural herbs and can be easily washed off with special potions. It is harmless to the body."

Among the entire mermaid race.

Basically only the royal family and some mermaids with ancestral bloodline have silver hair.

Regardless of whether they are from other royal families or mermaids with ancestral bloodlines, their hair color, in addition to silver, will be more or less mixed with a little other color. For example, his eldest brother has a layer of light blue at the end of his hair.

Only Stuka Lumin's hair was free of any other colors.

and so.

This also made it easy for people who knew the inside story to recognize his identity.

"As for why you cover your face."

Stuka Lumin naturally couldn't say that, but just because of Lu Chihuan's previous words, he had the idea of ​​covering his face.

Their identities are still shackles to each other, so it is not appropriate to say such things.

At this moment, he deliberately raised his chin, and then casually made up an excuse, "Of course, I think what you just said makes a lot of sense, so I don't want to give others the opportunity to disturb me. Isn't it just right to do this?"

talking.

He did not give Lu Chihuan a chance to ask further questions. Instead, he held the other's shoulder with one hand and pushed him away.

"Let's go."

"Where shall we go first?"

Lu Chihuan's attention was diverted by Stuka Lumen. He frowned and thought for a moment, "I don't really have any plans in mind. Why don't we go for a walk on the main street first? Maybe we'll have some new ideas while walking."

"Okay."

Stuka Lumen nodded.

Although they left the palace to relax, the most important thing for him was that Lu Chihuan was by his side. As for other things, he didn't care that much.

The central square and streets of the mermaid tribe are also very lively.

Because the mermaids have above-average talent in literature and art, the shop signs and exterior decorations are all handmade by them. Each style is different and looks very eye-catching.

The only thing in common is probably that they all have strings of wind chimes hanging under their eaves.

The structure of this wind chime is particularly unique.

Some are made of gems and pearls, while others are made of the simplest corals or glass bottle fragments. There are several tiny holes in the middle, and whenever air flows through them on the seabed, they make pleasant sounds.

When some mermaids have nothing to do, they will take the initiative to set up stalls in the square.

The things they sell are basically handicrafts they make themselves, or food hunted from the deep sea, etc.

They don't care about the price, they just want to find a lively place to chat, so they might give it away for free if they are in a good mood.

Stuka Lumin has been looking at the scenery in the mermaid territory for more than ten years, so no matter how beautiful it is, he is tired of it.

But this time.

Walking and stopping on the street with Lu Chihuan, or bargaining with vendors, he couldn't help but feel some fun.

Interesting.

When he was still the third prince of the mermaid tribe, he also liked to wander around the streets all day, playing with cats and dogs and making the streets lively. The nearby mermaids would not only greet him when they saw him, but those who were familiar with him would even enthusiastically invite him to taste their new products.

It's just that since he took over his father's throne and became the king of the mermaids.

Those days were getting farther and farther away from him, and all the memories of them became faded photos that he treasured in his heart.

Behind.

Even he himself was about to forget it.

Now, when he went out with Lu Chihuan to buy some snacks, or to pick up some handicrafts, it actually brought back all his distant memories, which made him vaguely think that -

He is still the third prince whose parents and brother are still alive.

"Look at that."

Because Lu Chihuan wore the Orchid Fragrance Pearl on his body, he could walk freely on the seabed. He took a bite of the meatball in his hand and pointed to a place not far away.

"what is that?"

There was a rack several dozen meters high not far away. There were dozens of wooden boards nailed to the rack in scattered places around it. At the top was a huge and round night-shining pearl. At a glance—

In excellent condition.

I guess it could sell for quite a bit of money.

The mermaids below were shouting something, and quite a few of them had gathered nearby, with expressions that showed they were eager to try.

Stuka Lumen raised his eyes and glanced.

As if he was lost in some memories, his crimson eyes revealed a hint of nostalgia. After a moment, he said, "That... is some kind of ritual to pass on good luck."

"And that night-shining pearl..."

“It’s like a good start.

"Whenever something good happens in the homes of the mermaids at the bottom of the sea, they will take out a night-shining pearl and place it on the top of the shelf. Whoever gets it will be blessed with good luck."

Lu Chihuan nodded thoughtfully.

He pointed to the mermen gathered around the shelf. "So they are all planning to climb up the shelf and pick up this good fortune?"

Stuka Lumen nodded.

"Correct."

"The mermaid tribe has been quiet in recent years, so everyone gets bored occasionally. Once there is a lively event like this, they don't want to miss it. Generally speaking, the mermaids who are interested in the good fortune will rush over."

"After climbing up the scaffold, not only will they trip up their competitors and start a fight, but they will also use all sorts of methods to hold them back. Until the end, whoever gets the night pearl first will be the winner."

“In fact, the competition is quite fierce.”

"My second brother used to like to join in the fun, but he is slightly afraid of heights, so he has never won a prize. Every time he comes here, it is to get used to the height."

"Overcome this weakness."

"Before the accident happened, he excitedly told me that he was already familiar with the height of the scaffold and would climb it to the top one day to show me how high it was and win the prize for me."

later……

There will be no later.

His second brother died at the hands of foreigners. When he was dying, blood foamed out of his mouth uncontrollably. It seemed that he wanted to say something to him, but in the end, he never uttered the words.

Now think about it.

It's all just regrets.

I wonder if his second brother was still thinking about this lottery when he died.

After listening to what Stuka Lumin said, Lu Chihuan patted Stuka Lumin's shoulder gently as if to comfort him.

then.

She looked at him earnestly with her bright eyes, her thick eyelashes like crow feathers trembling slightly, "After such a long time, do you still want this belated prize?"

"If you want."

"I'll help you get it off."
