Chapter 120

Drew saw Berg for the first time in the fall of his 25th year.

After graduating from the St. Romia Military Academy, Drew was assigned to be the commander of the Vanguard Battalion of the Long Snake Corps led by the Behe ​​family. After all, he is the heir of the Behe ​​family, so the military department will naturally respect him in terms of promotion. The green light was given, and Drew himself was also very competitive. He performed outstandingly in the Long Snake Corps and made repeated military exploits. He was promoted all the way in just a few years, and he successfully won the rank of Brigadier General at the age of 25.

In the Empire, most Alphas will get married after graduating from university at the age of 21. The Omega Protection Association will find the Omega with the highest degree of gene fusion for them according to the method of systematic matching, and Omega will generally come before the first estrus at the age of 18. Just choose your own Alpha. Before marriage, the Omega Association will arrange for them to meet, and if there is no problem, you can directly choose the wedding date.

Of course, for the heirs of the big military families, choosing an Omega does not necessarily have to follow the arrangement of the association. If there is intention, the descendants of the family skip the process of the Omega association, and marriages with each other are everywhere.

Drew was a late marriager.

Compared with those Alphas who married their wives at the age of 21, Drew, who is still a bachelor at the age of 25, looks very different.He has a loyal personality and doesn't like to talk, so he is not particularly outstanding among the younger generation in the military department. Many people even call him a wooden man in private.

Drew's uncle, General Barnard, has repeatedly mentioned the wedding to him, such as the gentle 18-year-old Omega boy from the Sharman family, or the gentle Omega girl from the Orlando family... as long as Drew is willing , the father is happy to propose marriage to the other party's family.

But Drew just didn't want to.

He had absolutely no interest in the Omegas mentioned by his uncle, and it made him uncomfortable to think that he would be bound to them for the rest of his life.He wants to find an Omega that he likes... But, what kind of Omega should he like?

Drew, who has never seen a few Omega, has no idea about it.

Until he met Berg.

The weather was fine that day, the sky was clear, and the autumn in the capital of the empire was still warm and pleasant.

On September 9th, His Majesty Trande held an annual royal banquet in the Imperial Palace as usual, and invited many members of the military and royal family nobles. Drew, as the heir of the Behe ​​family, was naturally also invited, following his uncle Together they came to the palace.

The first time I came to the palace, I was very unfamiliar with it. I followed my uncle, and when I reached a square, I suddenly saw a white mech parked in the open space, and a man was sitting beside him, holding a notebook in his hand. Write and draw quickly.

The man was fair-skinned and handsome, with a light and gentle temperament on his body. He stretched his brows and sat there with his head bowed and writing in a comfortable expression, as if blending with the background of the palace into a simple and clean landscape painting.

Drew stopped and looked at the man blankly.The other party seemed to be aware of his gaze, raised his head, and the moment his eyes met, Drew suddenly felt like his heart was hit by something.

——Such clear eyes seemed to see into his heart all at once.

Drew just wanted to take a step forward to say hello to him, but the man stood up, put away his mecha and quickly turned around to leave. Only then did Drew notice that there was a child about five years old next to him, with a childish voice Said: "Uncle Wang, what's the matter? Let's play for a while!"

The man said softly: "Xi Wei, let's go back first. There will be a palace banquet tonight, and many guests will come to the palace. We two Omegas can't stay here."

Xi Wei seemed very upset, "What's wrong with Omega? Uncle Wang, I want to go to the banquet, it sounds very interesting!"

The man gently touched the child's head, smiled and said, "Don't make trouble."

The figures of the two quickly disappeared from sight, but Drew was still standing there blankly, his eyes following the man's back.

Until General Barnard found that he was lost, he turned around and came to him: "Drew? What are you looking at?"

Drew came back to his senses suddenly, touched his nose embarrassingly, and hurriedly followed his uncle's footsteps.

※※※※※

At 7 o'clock in the evening, the palace banquet started on time, and the invited guests gathered together in twos and threes to talk, and the scene was very lively.Drew followed his uncle through the crowd, toasting and greeting important figures from the military and the royal family from time to time.

He was not good at words, and he didn't like such a lively scene. After the toast, he stood alone in the corner, and couldn't help thinking about the person he met in the palace in the afternoon.

That person is so good-looking... His skin is very fair, his eyes are clear and bright, being looked at by his eyes seems to make the heart beat faster?

The eldest prince Xi Wei is calling him Uncle Wang, so he should be the prince who has never been married in the legend, right?People of the royal generation, Drew probably know that there is indeed only Prince Berg as an unmarried Omega staying in the palace.

Drew, who was full of thoughts, had been wandering throughout the banquet. After arriving home at night, lying on the bed after taking a shower, he still couldn't help but recall the scene he saw during the day—the man with a slender figure, a gentle appearance, and a smile The appearance gives people a very gentle and comfortable feeling, and the voice is also very nice...

Berg... Is he Prince Berg...

Growing up, Drew got his first taste of insomnia.

※※※※※

From that day on, Drew tried every means to find an opportunity to run to the palace, looking forward to meeting Prince Berg again.

The head of the Long Snake Legion is Barnard Behe, Drew's great uncle. Barnard's wife gave birth to four Omegas in a row, but she couldn't bear any more because of physical reasons. Barnard himself has no Alpha offspring, and has always put The eldest nephew Drew was raised as the heir.

Among the Behe ​​family's generation, only Drew is the most outstanding and serious person. During the three years of studying at the St. Romia Military Academy, he has always maintained the top three excellent results in the entire command system. Barnard intends to hand over the Long Serpent Corps to Drew came to take care of it, which was unanimously approved by the elders of the Bayher family.

Because of this "heir" status, Drew naturally has more and more opportunities to go to the palace.In many cases, things that can be settled by talking directly with His Majesty Trande through a communicator, he also diligently went to the palace to talk to His Majesty in person.

Barnard was very satisfied with this nephew's diligence, and His Majesty Trand also praised Drew for his age.

Only Drew knew that he couldn't wait to run to the palace, just wanting to see someone.

Ever since he met Prince Berg on the day of the banquet, the shadow of Berg has been lingering in his heart. He didn't know if it was love at first sight, but he only knew that this kind of eagerness to see someone It was a feeling he had never experienced before.

He wanted to see him almost madly.Moreover, the person he wanted to meet was an Omega.

...This is probably like it?

Drew ran to the palace persistently. After entering and leaving the palace seventeen times in a row, Drew finally got his wish and saw the Prince Berg who had been thinking about it day and night again in the palace.

When they met for the second time, Berg was still with Xi Wei.

The five-year-old Xi Wei seemed very interested in mechas, pestered Berg to give him a mecha, and even clamored to drive it himself. Berg said helplessly, "You're only five years old, and it's too much to drive a mecha." Dangerous, wait until you are 15 years old."

Xi Wei looked unwilling: "Uncle Wang, let me try it, just try once, okay, Uncle Wang! Just once!"

Berg smiled and patted the prince's head: "Not good."

Drew stood there staring at him blankly.

The scene of Berg getting along with the children looked so warm that Drew even stared blankly, standing there completely unable to move.

Until the eldest prince found him, he looked at him curiously, pointed to the direction here and said, "Uncle Wang, who is that person?"

Berg put away his smile and looked back at Drew, with some doubts in his eyes.

When Drew met his gaze, his heart skipped a beat. Being watched by those clear eyes, his mood became inexplicably tense, and he clenched his fists to keep calm. Drew mustered up the courage to go up to say hello to the other party. Unexpectedly, Berg suddenly turned his head and said to Xi Wei, "They are from the military department. They should be looking for His Majesty. Let's go."

Drew: "..."

People from the military department?This is his impression of me?

Seeing the back of Berg turning away, Drew hurriedly stepped forward and whispered: "That...Prince Berg, hello, my name is Drew."

This way of saying hello is simply stupid.

Even after recalling this episode a long time later, Drew still felt that he must have been stupid in Berg's eyes.

But at that time, he was really too nervous. He was stupefied at the beginning of his love affair. Facing the person he was thinking about day and night, Drew, who was originally not good at words, couldn't say any high-quality words at all.

——Just eager to let the other party know of their existence.

——My name is Drew... I'm not from the military.

——No, no, although I am from the military department, you should know my name, my name is Drew.

Drew's mind was in a mess, and he was even at a loss in front of Berg.

When Berg heard this, he stopped in his tracks, turned his head and glanced at Drew, and said politely: "Brother Wang's palace is over there, you are going the wrong way, do you need to ask the guards to take you there? ?”

Drew hurriedly said, "No, no, no need."

Berg nodded, turned around and left with Xi Wei.

Drew stood stiffly on the spot, touching his nose in embarrassment—as an Alpha, it would be rude to stand up and say hello to Omega like this, and he is now in the palace, although he often came to the palace during this time, the guards People are already familiar with him, but it is not in accordance with the rules for him to walk in private like this, and it is too reckless to walk in the opposite direction from His Majesty's palace...

But, I really want to see him... I really want to say a few more words to Berg...

However, after finally seeing him, Drew actually only said one sentence: "Hello, my name is Drew."

—I'm so stupid, Drew thought with some annoyance.
