Chapter 1: Moon Cactus
[All the place names in the story are imaginary. My English is not very good, if anything goes wrong, please comment]
At dawn, the sound is loud and boisterous on all sides of Cynosure Harbor, a crowded place of merchants from far away, where boats never stop docking.
Talk and laughter bubbled profusely, and someone was urging the transportation of goods. Somewhere in addition to the salty scent of the sea, there is also a fishy smell of fish wafting from docked fishing boats, or from fish containers.
Most especially, when you have come to the Cynosure harbor of Liberty Kingdom in the heart of the Silk Road, you must enjoy a barley beer from the Shabby Tavern or a glass of renowned Speyer wine here.
A thief is stealthily stealing gold coins from a drunk who is dreaming with a bottle of wine in his hand. The fat drunkard, the bearded man, seemed a little dirty at first view. He is sleeping like a log that he didn't realize a hand was stealthily touching the small duffel bag he hung on the back of his pants.
The thief, after stealing the gold coins, eagerly left the tavern. At that time, his face come into, although he acted stealthily, he had a very handsome face. With eyes as deep as the color of the sea, inside like a death spiral that wants to attract others when looking at it, every line of the face is surprisingly symmetrical. Especially the voice when he spoke, which was whispered by the noble ladies, that his voice was like a deep mermaid singing like when we enjoy a glass of wine in the moonlight by the Cosmos Chocolate garden.
After successfully stealing the bag of money, he treats himself to an apple at Lady Rude Mary's fruit stall, and by the way winks at her, making her fat face flush with embarrassment.
He thought he would be drinking and eating his fill, but as he was walking down the road he was suddenly grabbed by the collar, be drawn away.
Boom!
Dylan was thrown to the dirty, slimy ground, he was wondering in bewilderment when he heard a thick hoarse voice that sounded like something dragged on the ground saying something but couldn't hear it.
Dylan slowly lifted his head, seeing in front of him large, burly blokes, with fierce, aggressive expressions. His stare at Dylan made him feel a little scared. Dylan slowly sat up, giving him a big smile, "Haha, I wonder what you guys want to see me?"
As soon as he finished, he was immediately slapped, his mind spinning, his left cheek aching.
"You're brave, dare to steal my money." It was then that Dylan could hear what the thick hoarse voice was saying.
"Don't you know who I am?" The men asked again.
Dylan doesn't know. He was just trying to stay awake now, to see the other man's face. It was the face of the fat bloke he stole the money from.
"I'm Magnus Jones. You've never heard my name?"
Dylan had heard it before, heard it many times. The tycoon dealt with liquor and women for the nobility. He has a lot of influence because he was protected by the underground royal army, so he is always overbearing and arrogant. But who knew a guy who just needed his name could go to any fancy tavern and drunk as a fiddler at a tiny wine tavern in Cynosure Harbour?
"I... I'll give it back to you immediately." As he said as he took out the bag of money in his body, the junior standing next to him immediately grabbed it and handed it to Magnus. But he wasn't about to spare Dylan.
"People like you have to beat you to death to set an example for damn pariahs who dare to snoop on my pocketbook."
When he said this, Dylan was a little ridiculous. This bloke thought he was of high rank. He is just a flatterer, following the nobles so he was a noble? But he couldn't let himself die anyway, so Dylan was just about to beg for forgiveness.
Suddenly there was a light in the sky, accompanied by a huge earthquake, even birds became panicked flying all over the sky, and even the fish that were swimming in the sea jumped strangely on the shore.
Taking the opportunity that everything was in disarray, Dylan immediately ran away, running fast, far away towards the forest. But he didn't realize that it was where the light fell.
Nguyễn Thụy Du was stunned, his gut wanted to get out. It is not clear whether the surroundings are day or night, only a black curtain is visible, but outside the black curtain hides a flashing light. Then he felt a little tired, the feeling of drowsiness rushing back made him curl up, then his eyes closed to sleep.
Dylan scurried into the woods. Sometimes he turns around to check if someone is chasing him. After determining that he is safe. At this point he stood back, breathing heavily.
After calming down, he now relaxed and took some of the gold coins that he had taken out of the money bag earlier, fortunately, Dylan based on his arrested experience took some gold coins, or else the effort to steal will be fruitless.
It was just a while before Dylan found out he was lost. He had forgotten that this forest was called Lost. The meaning on the face of the word is that once entered, it is difficult to step out. Only when lucky enough to meet the kind mushroom spirit that shows the way can it be out. But mushroom spirits are just legends, almost everyone who enters this place does not return.
Walking around for a while he squatted down and scratched his head, admitting he had lost his way. At the same time, he heard a bird crying in the sky, not understanding what Dylan was thinking but ran after the bird.
Running a while, Dylan doesn't see it anywhere. He only had to move forward. Although it is midday, the forest is as calm as the night, a little cold. Dylan was walking forward a bit when suddenly he noticed something strange.
A huge mound emerged, topped with a flower that looked a little strange. Petals are white, glowing, and hanging down on the ground.
The strange thing is not about the flower, but the birds perched around it, even the most beautiful butterflies. They seem to be attracted to this glowing flower, which surrounds, sings, and flies endlessly.
Dylan stared dumbfoundedly at the magic in front of him, feeling a little puzzled, he slowly walked closer to take a closer look. Yet those notoriously cowardly little animals were not afraid of him, but only dodged a little but did not leave.
But the center of his attention was the glowing flower in front of him, his curiosity rising so that he could not help himself and sat down in front of the other flower. Reaching out to touch it, he suddenly felt the animals around him stir slightly, looking wary of what he was doing.
Dylan felt that this was because maybe this flower was a precious object, it was because it was precious that this strange phenomenon occurred. Dylan used all his strength to pick the flower up from the mound, the animals around him scrambling, running away only to leave Dylan with a puzzled expression.
But he didn't care much, just looked at the flower in his hand. Each shiny petal sparkles like fairy dust, and there is a gentle, ethereal faint scent that is a little passionate and seductive.
But soon the petals begin to fall to the ground, the petals gradually rise again creating a small water cannon.
Bang!
A sound of something falling to the ground, the small water cannon dissipated, and the petals were nowhere to be seen. Only one person was left on the ground.
That's right, it's a human.
A naked man, at a glance, can be seen to be a guy. The skin is glossy without blemishes, white, and soft and smooth. Only Dylan was now rolling his eyes, also regretting that the flower that could be sold to Silas would get a lot of money, now it was going to go up in smoke.
But he couldn't let the young man lie there, he just walked around and took off the shirt on his body and put it on for the lad, when he touched the lad he just thought, how could there be any man with such soft flesh, if it wasn't for what he had on his body, he would have thought this was someone's lady, There was also a faint fragrance. Although his shirt was also quite loose, he put it on to cover his round buttocks, but if he moved, he would see the sensitive image of the adult.
Dylan looked at the lad's face, now he saw that the outline of his face was a little different, looking extremely similar to those from Singapura immensely, only looking at his sleeping beauty looked much more adorable than those rough ones.
But the two of them couldn't stay here long, after all, this place was known as the sacred forest of poisonous water, he just carried the sleeping lad on his back in the direction that the small animals had run away earlier.
The forest road was full of rocks, making the teenager on Dylan's back a little jolted, Dylan also secretly felt lucky that this teenager was quite underweight, otherwise, he would die.

Walking for a while, he saw a huge tree, its width must be about three or four people hugging it, the trunk is 2 or 3 meters high, and the canopy is extremely wide. Dylan then carried the lad to the stump of the tree to sit and rest.
As soon as he put the teenager down, he frowned and opened his eyes, his round black eyes sparkling, adding his typical jet-black hair of Asians. It was only through these two points that Dylan guessed that he was a lost merchant. Although he saw that his thoughts were a bit wrong, he didn't pay much attention and just looked at the lad in his presence of him.
Only seeing his pale pink lips open slightly, making a sweet melodious sound like a fairy's harp, the teenager said, "It's time to eat?"
