Louis lowered his gaze to the two siblings who quietly let him pat their heads. The corners of his lips lifted slightly as he spoke softly: "First, can you two help me escape danger, then we'll find a suitable place. Only when it's safe can I tell you stories."
Luna and Lucas raised their heads to look at Louis, only to see him tilt his head slightly, lips pressed together, his cheeks and ears flushed red. With a hint of hesitation, he muttered in a low voice: "Or… do something else..."
Aaaaaa heavens!
Luna lightly bit Louis' finger, her face flushed red with excitement, looking like she couldn't wait a second longer: "Then let's hurry up already!"
Lucas' pupils trembled as he looked at Louis, his gaze unfathomable. Louis only felt a cold chill in his heart.
His face turned red, seemingly overwhelmed by the siblings' enthusiasm.
Seeing this, Luna almost couldn't control the strength of her bite.
Louis was just too adorable—she wanted to bite his finger clean off. He'd definitely cry then, making him even more lovable.
At that moment, Lucas suddenly pulled Louis' hand out of Luna's grasp, his brows furrowed: "Don't fool around like this, not at a time like this."
Well, well, someone's acting all proper.
Luna frowned and snorted coldly. Lucas ignored his sister and lifted his head to Louis, asking, "Danger? Did someone try to harm you?"
Louis nodded truthfully: "Yes, it's these monsters in the cages..."
Hah, so they dared to set him up, wanting him to fight? Then he'd make sure the fight never even happened!
The monsters were the main spice of the arena. Once they were all dead, Silver Mansion would quickly scramble to find the culprit. Who would still have the time or mind to care about a hastily shoved-in fighter like him?
"Someone brought me here, wanting me to fight these ferocious monsters. I also knew this place held you two captive, so I played along. Luckily, I finally found you in the end."
Louis thought that no one in the world was more honest than he. Look, he didn't even lie.
Luna's eyes were red with fury: "I'll kill every last one of them, every single one!"
Louis' expression immediately shifted into panic mixed with fear: "No, don't—there are many innocent people here."
Luna sighed and hugged Louis tightly: "You really are such a kind person, Louis. As expected, my lover would be someone like you."
Clang!
Just then, one of the cages was suddenly torn open.
Like an arrow, Lucas charged straight inside. The iron bars before his spear were no stronger than bean sprouts, offering no resistance.
The monster inside the cage let out a furious roar and lunged forward.
Lucas raised his other hand, and in his palm, a hole opened up. Energy instantly gathered there before firing off like a fierce green blast, melting the monster's head!
Without stopping, Lucas swept his spear again—another unlucky monster skewered in an instant!
Luna grew furious and stomped her foot: "Don't think you can rack up more credit than me like that!"
She darted off in an instant. Louis' eyes could see things faster than most people, yet even so, Luna was only a blur before him.
Her hands clapped together, transforming into a giant pair of shears in the blink of an eye. She sliced through a monster's neck as if cutting chives—so quick the creature didn't even have time to roar.
Damn, that was way too cool! Louis had no idea how mechanization worked, or how it could turn into something like scissors or a gun.
He had always dreamed of having a mechanized part himself, but he knew the technology on this planet wasn't advanced enough to produce parts like those of Luna and Lucas. He had no clue which era or planet they had come from.
The battle outside the cages turned into a one-sided slaughter. Meanwhile, Louis strolled down the only path. Blood in all colors spilled out from the cages, and he stepped on it without hesitation. Ah, this feeling—he could almost dance a ballet right here in the blood-soaked mess, ha ha.
The crushing fight ended quickly, leaving behind only the blood-stained floor.
Luna and Lucas tore open the cages and walked out. Despite the chaotic battle, they were spotless, their white experimental uniforms untouched by even a speck of filth. Their pale faces seemed to glow, radiant even in the dim prison lights—like two little angels who had just descended to the mortal world.
Louis smiled, spreading his arms to pull the two close, his expression gentle and pure: "It's so good… having you two is really so good..."
Then suddenly he raised his hand, tugged open the collar of his shirt, revealing his slender, snow-white neck. On one side, there were already bite marks from Luna; the other side was still clean, fresh, waiting for someone to sink their teeth in.
Louis curved his lips: "Reward."
Luna's eyes went wide, her face quickly burning red. Because of that, she was a step too slow—Lucas lunged forward first, biting down hard on Louis' neck. His sharp teeth pierced through his skin like a vampire's.
"Lucas, you're the worst!"
Luna roared, then yanked down Louis' shirt in anger. Unable to control her strength, the fabric instantly shredded into tatters.
She pounced and bit into Louis' shoulder, sinking her teeth harder than Lucas.
Fuck! Were these siblings robots of the new century—or just a pair of rabid dogs?!
"Mm..." A low moan escaped him, the young man's legs seeming to go weak as his knees hit the floor.
Lucas and Luna stopped licking the fresh blood and looked up.
They saw the young man biting his own finger, his face flushed, tears streaming down as his body trembled uncontrollably.
Luna immediately grew excited, kissing Louis' face as she cried out: "You're my type! You're exactly my type! We're definitely meant to be lovers, no doubt about it!"
Lucas lowered his gaze, his fingernails lightly pressing into the bite mark on Louis' neck. As expected, Louis immediately shuddered, arching his body in helpless reaction.
A flicker of light passed through Lucas's eyes, and he leaned down to kiss the wound softly.
Please, spare my neck! Louis was truly terrified Lucas would bite him again—he hated pain!
The young man staggered to his feet, gently pushing the twins away, hesitating as he said: "This place really isn't... suitable."
At the same time, he tried to piece his shirt back together. Unfortunately, all that was left was shredded cloth, leaving his chest exposed to the cold air, and he was trembling uncontrollably.
Lucas and Luna were still staring straight at him.
Louis: "..." The heavens truly want to destroy me.
Acting a little embarrassed, he rushed ahead. Luna and Lucas exchanged a glance, then quickly chased after him.
Following the Silver Mansion map Sylus had sent him, Louis swiftly returned to his room through a hidden passageway.
The three of them—one grown man and two children—crawled out from under the bed, all looking grimy.
Louis brushed the dust off his body, hurriedly locked the door to make sure no one would suddenly walk in, then quickly grabbed a change of clothes and headed to bathe.
Before entering the bathroom, he didn't forget to turn back and warn them: "Sit here and don't wander around, okay?"
Especially—don't go into the bathroom!
The twins sat obediently on chairs, with some dust on their clothes and faces, looking well-behaved and adorable. Louis couldn't help but recall his younger siblings from his previous world.
Haiz, if only Luna and Lucas were as obedient as they appeared.
Louis glanced at the bite marks in the mirror—still bleeding, raw flesh visible. He could already imagine what it would feel like when water poured over them.
His face darkened as he endured the discomfort, washing up quickly.
"Lucas, Louis is so cute. I don't think I can share him with you." Luna swung her legs, sighing.
"Luna, it's Louis who's stepping on two boats, splitting his heart in half, loving both of us at once," Lucas replied firmly. Thinking about it only made both him and Luna feel worse. How could anyone be so unfaithful to love?
"We've been asleep for so long... Louis wouldn't have someone else, would he?" If Louis could be unfaithful by loving them both simultaneously, there was no guarantee he wouldn't find someone new while they were asleep!
Neither Luna nor Lucas bothered to lower their voices. Listening from inside the bathroom, Louis almost couldn't stand upright, his heart pounding wildly.
