what do we live for?

"what do we live for? really" A man said with a quite voice.

The light coming from the candles on the table danced as a fork pierced a steak in the plate and sent it to the black-haired man's mouth.

In the other side of the table, a second man looked at the steak plate and took one as well.

"Sleepy" the second man said as he slowly chewed "we are to recieve money and assassinate our targets" the man took another steak and gazed at it "enough money to afford this luxury"

"So you are saying nothing matters but money, luke?" The so-called sleepy took the steak plate away from luke's range and said.

"Hahaha, you want all the steaks for yourself, you greedy one" luke laughed then raised a cup of wine and sipped "we are inhuman people, we kill inocents for money, yet, i think even for people like us there has to be a code to follow" luke drank half the cup in one dose and continued "otherwise, we will lost our way, we won't have something to live for"

Sleepy shook his cup of wine baffled and gazed at the red wine as it rippled, he kept quiet for a while before he asked "a code? As what?"

Luke smiled mockingly, his face was flushed with drink as he said "I will execute any order i recieve, yet i won't kill an innocent child, or for example; if i was told to kill a friend of mine, i absolutely won't! Even for assassins like us there has to be a limit"

Sleepy opened his eyes and gazed at luke silently, then asked "am i a frind of yours?"

"Oh now what are you saying? You sure are my friend" luke the drunk swayingly stood up of his chair and wraped his arm around sleepy's neck as he laughed joyingly "have you forgotten about all the missions we accomplished together? All the hardships we surpassed together? You are worthfully my friend"

Sleepy kept quiet for a while and said "indeed, as i see it, our purpose is to seek for excitement! Both the pleasure and pain gives us the excitement we need" sleepy sipped a sip of his wine then stood up of his chair as well "our enemy isn't pain, isn't sorrow, isn't rage, our enemy is boredom" sleepy's empty eyes stared at luke who was smiling because of wine "but i don't know why i don't feel anything but boredom, my friend!"

"Hahaha, i know, we called you sleepy because of your sleepy face afteral-..." Luke was laughing before he stopped suddenly and looked at his stomach with suprise, there he saw sleepy's dagger implanted in him.

"No, you don't know, the reason why i don't laugh at jokes isn't that i don't get thim, it is that i don't find them funny in the first place!" Sleepy pulled his dagger out of luke's stomach and looked coldly at luke's shocked eyes "when i say i feel nothing but boredom, i mean it, my friend"

"So they ordered you to assassinate me" luke was no longer shocked, he smiled peacefully "what is the reason though?"

"They think you aren't dependable, they knew you didn't kill the prince they told you to kill, you just kidnapped him and imprisoned him in that cave.. but his father somehow managed to find him"

"That's the case then.." with sleepy's help, luke lied on the ground smoothly and looked towards the ceiling, staring at darkness "can you please hand me that beer bottle over there?"

"As you like" sleepy caught the bottle and gave it to luke.

Luke's left hand was pressing the wound in his stomach, while his right hand held beer bottle, even though he was pressing the wound, that just helped him getting his left hand bloodstained, just after a short while a pool of blood gathered beneath his body.

Luke drank a lot of beer before belching a mixture of beer and blood, he wipped his mouth with the back of his right palm and spoke "it is no wonder you didn't find the purpose of your existence" he gazed at sleepy's relaxed uncaring eyes and went on hardly "if you don't set any limits to yourself, don't expect anything but absurdism from life! I don't know how would you be able to live your life like this.."

Sleepy kept staring at luke.

"You know where my money are, you can take them" luke shut his eyes as sleepy opened the door quietly.

"Hold on!" Luke said weakly.

Sleepy stopped without looking back, a strong wind blew outside causing almost all the candles to be blown out. It was dark and cold outside, the howling of wolves could be heard not so far away.

"Have you even considered me a friend?" Luke coughed up so hard.

Sleepy stood silent for a while, one can hear the trees swaying with the wind.

"I am not interested in answering" sleepy's quiet voice sounded harmonious with wind before the door got shut.

Luke lied alone in the darkness, almost all the candles were blown out by the wind, luke looked at the ceiling weakly and sipped his last sip of beer.

In another place, inside the royal palace, a young woman hugged a little child as she cried.

The young woman's eyes were blue like the sky, and her skin was white as snow, her black hair was night, and her pretty face day.

"My sister mery!" The little child called the young woman with a crying voice.

"I was anxious to death about you، little brother!" The young woman's eyes were reddish, tears ran down her cheeks as she hugged her little brother tightly.

Beside them, stood a middle-aged man.

The man looked similar to princess mery and her little brother.

King ethan put his palm on top of the little child and said "I will avenge you, my little prince"
