Chapter Text
The legend of Thiren has long been that: when the full moon hangs in the sky, it is the time when some of the genetic instincts in Thiren's blood will awaken. Although this old source of information has never been confirmed to be accurate, each of us should be takecare. Be careful~
The capital city of New Eridu, a cool moonlit night, the perfect weather for ghost thieves, especially the Mockingbird. What a coincidence, our aforementioned protagonist is standing on the roof of the observatory with a leisurely appearance, not at all looking like the person who has just carried out a million-dollar mission from the exhibition that is still in chaos on the other side of the city.
He held in his hand a beautiful blood pearl called Lacrima Vinrouge. Looking through the stone, I could see that it was reflecting his strange pupils. The notable point here is that the red on one side of his iris and the stone do not seem to be exactly the same, even though they are both red. When he held the stone to shine in the moonlight, a white figure suddenly appeared. The ghost thief didn't look surprised, and greeted this big "no" guest:
" Good evening my old partner, it looks like you're working hard as a Mayflower hound.
The white shadow gently landed near the person who had just uttered the sentence full of the smell of the blow and there was a look of reluctance in his eyes:
" Good evening Hugo, I came here because I received a letter informing me that you have sent before. I hope you will please return the thing you just stole to my master.
Hugo smirked and replied:
- Okay, I'm not kidding anymore. Does this great deacon Lycaon know why I invited you to enjoy the night view here?
This time, the werewolf butler didn't take too long, replied in a deep voice:
- As our previous contract, if I can find you tonight in the Silver Moonlight Hunting Ground, I will be considered successful in defending the Lacrima Vinrouge. But I myself still have a question desire you to answered.
This time, the bat thief turned around and walked closer to the taller figure, with a confident smile on his face:
- Well, I congratulate you on the excellent completion of the task. I'm sorry to say that your question is inadvertently a secret that I don't want to answer yet. But, did you forget reasons I inviting you come here to admire the moon, Lycaon ?
The deacon fell into silence, running through a series of speculations in his head. Tonight, the Victoria Housekeeping company received an order to protect the "lucky" gem exhibition sent by the Mocking Bird thieves to visit. This miserable master has a clean background, the economy is not too abundant, and the origin of the stone is not a problem. That's why Lycaon didn't understand his old friend's motive for stealing.
Hugo also specially forwarded Lycaon a private " dating invitation. From the familiar flowery words in the letter, the wolf housekeeper felt that Hugo had some purpose to hide. Lycaon's intuition told Hugo to deliberately emphasize this.
Looking at the thoughtful and gradually clear expression of Thiren in front of him, the leader of the ghost thief didn't seem to care, he took a few steps forward and continued to speak in his magnetic voice:
- I don't know what's going on your wandering mind, but I suggest we should continue to watch the moon rise higher tonight in another place. I guess you won't refuse either, my old acquaintance ~
The subject who had escaped from pondering for a while immediately coughed slightly when he heard these words. Standing in the opposite position, he completely retracted the image of the half - bread bat revealing a white fang, prominent on his thin lips that looked enchanting. Under the shining moonlight, there seemed to be no space between them, their shadows overlapped.
As satisfied with the answer reflected in the red at the bottom of the butler's eyes, Hugo turned and jumped to the roof next door. His movements were neither fast nor slow, like a mischievous bat. And the white wolf who was teased before just had time to recover his soul and took off to follow him. If anyone is still awake tonight, they will accidentally see two figures gently dancing through the buildings... was sleeping peacefully under the darkness of New Eridu.
