Chapter 1456 Bait and Fish
The next day, early morning.
When Lord woke up, Michael had long disappeared, leaving only a faint scent and the warmth of the quilt next to him.
He slowly got up and put on his clothes, opened the door and walked out.
An alluring aroma of gourmet food spread in the center of the entire living room. Following the smell, I saw two breakfasts on the table.
On the white plate was a steaming, golden omelette, paired with two slices of toasted, slightly browned bread, sliced sausage, and a glass of warm milk.
The breakfast is not very rich, but it is full of warmth.
How long has it been... since you didn't feel this way?
Lord looked at the breakfast on the table with a complicated look on his face. He thought of how he had lived such a life in his previous life.
But, all this can't go back.
Since traveling to Marvel, he has lived a life of fear every day, just to find the way home.
"I will definitely...find it!"
He swore secretly in his heart.
No matter what the cost, find your way home.
"I just learned it, let's see how it tastes."
Michael walked out of the kitchen gracefully with the freshly cooked soup. When he saw Lord standing at the door in a daze, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't be dazed, come and sit down."
Awakened from his memories, Lord calmed down, walked to the table, sat down, and joked: "I am afraid I am the first person in history to be able to eat food cooked by the Archangel himself, right?"
"There will be opportunities in the future."
Michael smiled slightly and filled a bowl of soup for him. After bringing it to him, he propped up his cheeks and looked at him quietly with his beautiful eyes like autumn water: "Try it quickly and see how it tastes." , I read a lot of books, it shouldn’t be too bad.”
"Okay, I often do."
Lord scooped up a spoonful of soup and put it into his mouth.
The fresh and rich flavor, mixed with the unique aroma of mushrooms, rushes into the throat in an instant, and the spicy taste that follows gives another taste.

His eyes lit up and he couldn't help but praise: "Not bad, I didn't expect it to taste so delicious for the first time you cook!"
After receiving the praise, Michael's smiling eyes narrowed into crescents, his long and curved eyelashes blinked, and he let out a laughter as clear as a silver bell: "If you like it, I will do it for you again in the future"
"OK."
Lord responded with the same smile.
"By the way, next time... I'll cook you dishes from your hometown!" Michael said happily.
"Well...then you have to study hard."
Lord smiled and said: "The food in my hometown... is very difficult. You may not be able to learn it just by reading a few books."
"Then you will teach me?" Michael chuckled.
"Okay, I'll teach you slowly when I'm free."
Lord agreed wholeheartedly.
"Eat quicklyit's almost cold!"
Michael picked up the knife and fork and reminded.
So, the two enjoyed a delicious breakfast.
After enjoying breakfast, Michael fell into silence, sitting there as if unwilling to speak.
For a long time, Lord couldn't bear it, and finally spoke, breaking the silence: "You...it's time to go."
Michael slowly raised his head, his beautiful eyes filled with unprecedented seriousness, staring at him: "Tell me... what did you find there?!"
Lord's heart sank, but his face remained calm, and he said calmly: "I didn't find anything, just a sealed Old Dominator and traces of the three pillar gods."
"I'm not that stupid, Lord."
Michael sighed lightly and said with a complicated expression: "Besides, you are really bad at lying. People can tell at a glance that you are deliberately hiding something."
Lord's face froze slightly, he opened his lips and said firmly: "I don't understand what you mean."
"It's about me..."
Michael stood up, came to him, squatted down slowly, raised his head and looked at Lord's face, and said softly: "Let me guess, it's...about me, right?"
Although Lord had tried his best to control his expression, it was inevitable that his face would shrink, and this flash of strangeness was accurately captured by Michael, which further confirmed her guess.
"I...will die, right?"
Michael said slowly.
The muscles in the corners of Lord's eyes twitched, and his eyes subconsciously shifted to avoid her gaze.
"You're really... very good at lying."
Michael sighed softly, and there was a trace of sadness that could not be concealed in his eyes.
In fact, this was not difficult to guess. To be more precise, she had vaguely guessed it since Lord used that clumsy lie to make her leave immediately.
Now, it's just more certain.
Knowing that he could no longer hide it, Lord could only sigh, gently helped Michael up, looked into her eyes, and said firmly and resolutely, word for word: "Believe me... nothing will happen to you, as long as you Go back and do as I say and nothing will happen, okay?"
"If this is fate, at least in the final time, I don't want to be separated from you."
Michael shook his head and bit his lip.
"No destiny! No arrangement!"
Lord said calmly: "It will be okay, I will definitely be able to break it, believe me, Michael!"
As Hastur said, if there really is no destiny and everything is guided by choice, then he only needs to go against the choice to break that fate!
At least... that's what he thinks now.
However, after hearing this, Michael's expression was a little strange. She shook her head and lowered her head solemnly: "I... want to be willful this time, okay?"
"No, not this time."
Lorde refused her forcefully.
"alright, I got it……"
Michael finally stopped struggling, and there was an unknown complex look in his eyes.
Lord didn't see her eyes, and turned around and spoke directly in a black tone, saying: "I will ask the Ichibei of the Military Chief to take care of you. You should stay in the Soul King Palace until this matter is over."
The Soul King's Palace... is the safest place.
With the Zero Squadron guarding and the Akkadian Protoss present, even if the three pillars of gods arrived together, it would be impossible to break them in a short time. Letting Michael stay there was the safest option.
"I'm leaving……"
Michael was a little disappointed, lowered his head and passed Lord, walked straight into the black cavity, stepped on a golden light path, and slowly walked into the depths.
The black cavity slowly closed.
Lord's heart, which he had been holding on to, finally dropped at this moment, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.
Now, he has no worries.
Lord just turned around, but suddenly remembered that Michael didn't seem to say goodbye to him when he left.
Although it was just a small thing, it suddenly caused ripples in his calm heart, like some kind of ominous omen.
"It's okay...she just forgot..."
Lord shook his head vigorously and comforted himself: "There will be many opportunities in the future, and nothing will happen."
…
…
…
Black accent.
Michael is alone, walking in a void of space.
Suddenly, a dazzling ball of light suddenly appeared in the turbulent flow of empty and dark space, as if it had gathered thousands of rays of light, emitting a light that was impossible to look directly at.
"Archangel Michael...Long time no see."
A twisted and slender figure appeared in this space through the path opened by the light ball.
