Chapter 8: TK Big Devil Fight 4
I woke up with a splitting headache. It was a long time before I remembered that today was Monday and I had to go to class.
I don't know how I spent the two days of the weekend. It seemed like it was too crazy and I couldn't remember anything.
I climbed out of the bed. The last scene in my memory seemed to have taken place in the Black Knight Branch. It seemed that someone ran to the Knight Hall of the Black Knight Branch yesterday and did something extraordinary. I had to go because of my identity and had to protect someone. Then we ran out screaming.
What important thing did we do? We... I looked down and found that there was something new on my bed. It looked at me, and I looked at it... Ah! There is a big bird on my bed!
Black swan , it’s Cisse’s black swan!
We stole Cisse's Black Swan last night.
What should I do? I must return the bird. I must!
Without even changing out of my pajamas, I rushed out holding the very obedient black swan.
No matter what Suzaku says, this bird is the mascot of the Black Knights House, and it can't stay with me like this.
Walking to the door of the living room, suddenly...
"Just tell me what you want me to do, uncle."
I held the black swan of Xisai and dared not take another step forward. I didn't understand why a student could be so afraid of the dean of the college, but I was afraid of Gao Gong Shangren because he could easily take away everything from me.
The voice echoed in the empty room. It was still morning, and there should be only him and Takamiya Naoto in Suzaku's spacious living room.
"You did it on purpose, didn't you, letting Xi Sai kidnap the princess?"
"It doesn't matter. What are you going to do with me next?"
"How is this not important? Suzaku, are you stupid ? At your wedding, your bride was kidnapped by another man. I can't imagine what I would do if someone did that to me. But none of that matters anymore! Now you should take people to tear down that library and leave them with nowhere to go! The Takamiya family does not allow betrayal, and our identities do not allow anyone to betray us, do you understand?"
identity……
I find myself hating this word more and more.
After a long time, I could only hear my own breathing, and suddenly... "That man is my brother, do you understand?" Suzaku's voice rang out again, with shocking power.
"That man is my brother, do you understand?" Suzaku's sweet voice trembled, revealing emotions he had never shown in front of me before, "Ten years ago, when dad and mom left home, dad patted my head and told me to take good care of Skylark when they were not at home. I promised dad, I promised mom... to take good care of Skylark like they were at home. I promised them to take good care of Skylark! What about now? Have I done it now? He is my brother, do you know that?"
"Suzaku..."
Takamiya Naoto's voice sounded again, much weaker than before, and even became a little gentle.
"Suzaku, there are many ways to take care of someone. He will understand your good intentions in the future. But now... you can't live without the Red Princess. The Red Knights branch can't live without the Red Princess..."
"Why?" Suzaku sneered, "Because I have to be the winner of the Queen's Game?"
The cold laughter seemed to freeze the air, so when Gao Gong Shangren suddenly shouted, I was so scared that I almost threw the black swan in my hand. The poor little guy looked at me in my arms, his black eyes rolling, and I didn't know why I was shaking.
"Because you are the only heir to the Takamiya family! Hibari is nothing compared to you. He's even better than not having him. Everything would go much smoother without him!"
It would be nice if he wasn't there.
snort……
Are all these nobles like this? In their hearts, there are always some people who can be done without, and there are always some people who are more perfect than others.
There are always people who are not needed in this story.
always……
"Ahaha...it's you again."
A tall figure suddenly loomed over my body. I took a deep breath and walked towards Takamiya Naoto who had discovered me.
He looked at me indifferently, and I looked up at him. I knew I should show weakness at this moment, I should beg him not to expel me again and again, putting me in a situation where it is extremely difficult to survive, but... I looked at him, but I couldn't let myself show the slightest weakness in front of him, because I was not the person he could ignore, I was not the person who was not needed in this story!
"Hello, Dean Gao Gong, I'm Duanmu Mingri, a student of this college." I turned to face him and said my name loudly.
"Okay, Duanmu Mingri, I now solemnly declare that you have been fired." Gao Gong Shangren said coldly.
I saw Suzaku behind him. Suzaku didn't look at me, but looked out the window at the rising sun. His chest heaved as he responded loudly to Takamiya Naoto: "What if I say no again? What if I say I don't allow you to expel my knight?"
"Suzaku, don't you understand?" Takamiya Shangren turned around and shouted at Suzaku, "Don't you understand why you lost the princess? Don't you understand why you have come to this point today? These people--"
Turning around and pointing at me, Takamiya Naoto said to Suzaku even louder: "These people are insignificant, you are not the same kind of people as them. You are born to be a leader, born to be the king of this academy, you are so handsome, so smart, you should not confuse yourself with them, you should not ignore the princess because of them, ignore..."
"If I can't even protect a small, ordinary knight like this, am I still a great knight? I..." Suzaku turned his head in the morning light. The sunlight sprinkled on his handsome face and gathered on the tears rolling in his eyes, shining brightly.
"If I can't even protect my own brother, then I am the one who counts!"
"Suzaku!"
"Uncle!" Turning his head, Suzaku seemed to take a deep breath before he had the strength to continue, "Or father."
"ah……"
"ah……"
Takamiya Naoto and I screamed softly almost at the same time, but I screamed out of shock, while Takamiya Naoto felt as if someone had stabbed him in a fatal pain spot.
"snort……"
With a sneer, Suzaku walked to the front door and opened it, letting the warm winter sun shine into the room.
In the sunshine, he was only wearing a thin shirt, but he was basking in the sunshine and seemed not to feel the winter cold at all.
"In fact, you came to me today just to force me to continue to obey your orders, to continue to carry out your plan, to force Yun Que and Yao Yao into a desperate situation, right?"
Zhuque turned his head and smiled proudly like a king in the golden sunlight: "This is ridiculous! You don't have to this, and you don't have to force me. Osto wants the squash court, and the library is very old and needs to be demolished, so I will definitely do that."
"Suzaku..."
"It's just that, father..." Zhuque laughed again, but tears were flashing in his eyes, and it seemed that they were about to burst out. "Do you believe it? Let me make a bet with you, okay?"
"What bet?"
"I bet that even if your plan is realized again, you still won't get what you want." Suzaku said with a smile, "Do you think that if you take away his library, he will become your slave? You look down on Yunque too much, and on me - Takamiya Suzaku's younger brother! You look down on these insignificant knights too much!"
"Do you think TK belongs to you? Do you think you are the king here? Humph..." Tears finally welled up from his eyes, but his proud expression was something I had never seen on anyone's face.
"Just like you don't know that I already know that you are my biological father, there are still many things you don't know. This academy, and the 588 people in the Red Knight branch! Father!"
Zhuque turned around and walked towards me: "Can you see the ending? If you can, I tell you, what you see is fake and will never come true! The ending I see will come true, the ending I see...the ending that Qianyuan, Osto and Yunque fought and won together is the real one! What kind of ending will the Queen's Game have, I don't know, and I don't care! But I can tell you that no one can take my brother away, the Red Princess can like whoever she wants, she can't take away my Red Knight branch, she can't even think about it!"
"Now..." Suzaku walked to my side, took my hand, turned around and took me past Takamiya Hisato.
"I'm going out to have a swan dinner, and...stay away from my woman!"
