說大不大說小不小的雨珠打在窗上,自天空中落下的雨水垂直降到地面,彷彿是連結黑夜與土地的透明絲線,密密麻麻地籠罩著整體呈紅黑色的華美建築。624Please respect copyright.PENANAumNxGBgzSj

藍髮青年甫一開門看見的就是這副景像,頓了下便撐開黑色的傘走了出去。624Please respect copyright.PENANAOuLV8jwAHr
624Please respect copyright.PENANAyDSVXaQHEL
十二月底的空氣因這場雨變得更加寒冷,這個國家雖不曾降雪,但冬季的低溫程度也不可小覷。624Please respect copyright.PENANAEdXf7t7ZlX

不見了、不見了、不見了……624Please respect copyright.PENANAIh0J8KZb7f
624Please respect copyright.PENANAuq32XfKZSx
偌大的宮殿內,裡頭所有的人都一臉焦急的忙碌著,從女僕、侍從、士兵、大門口的守衛一直到宮內大臣,幾乎是全員出動,只差王室成員不在場而已──噢,這是理所當然的,因為眾人們正在找的,就是羅坦赫拉勒目前失蹤的小王子。624Please respect copyright.PENANAOJnTyNP890
624Please respect copyright.PENANAOxs8FR1zcl
今天是王子七歲的生日,但就在幾分鐘前,正要去通知王子準備生日宴會的僕人發現,王子殿下居然不在房內!在附近怎麼樣也沒找到王子的身影,而報告王后陛下後,她表示一向不安份的王子應該是逃家,便下令立即展開全面性搜索。624Please respect copyright.PENANAV9nG3r1bNh
624Please respect copyright.PENANA41WRSPdHIA
本來為了王子的安危著想,是不該將事情鬧得這麼大才對,但僕人在通報前的大聲嚷嚷,早就弄得人盡皆知了,現在只能亡羊補牢地禁止這個消息傳出宮外。624Please respect copyright.PENANA9gyhRr7v52
624Please respect copyright.PENANAwVbOtwmy3B
才七歲,他們的小王子究竟跑到哪兒去了?624Please respect copyright.PENANAr7xSdAkXU5
624Please respect copyright.PENANAATVzUTBWgw
624Please respect copyright.PENANAuJUTVehszQ
624Please respect copyright.PENANALdOZld7Nqw
「嘖,誰要過什麼鬼生日啊。」624Please respect copyright.PENANAb85Jgqxjo7
624Please respect copyright.PENANAASVsfCLOhC
美輪美奐的宮殿外頭,約莫幾十公尺遠的巷弄中,紅黑相間的魔法陣於地面上逐漸成形,一名金髮男孩從法陣中央爬了出來,燦亮的髮長及背部、髮尾末梢染著橘紅色的漸層,男孩鏡片後的紅眸掃視四周,確定在場沒有其他人後,才往巷子深處走去。624Please respect copyright.PENANAhRAPRlYvUp
624Please respect copyright.PENANArGMN80wo4z
他即是夜行者一族唯一的王子,阿爾法.羅坦赫拉勒。624Please respect copyright.PENANABt9watthay
624Please respect copyright.PENANARZIMPFjR3C
夜行者若用人類所能理解的話來說,就是「吸血鬼」,在人類無從知曉的地底,存在著各種用魔法組成的空間,裡頭有著各式各樣的國家及種族,夜行者隸屬的羅坦赫拉勒一國便是其中之一。624Please respect copyright.PENANAxeSctbXshz
624Please respect copyright.PENANAlJoY8zk5Ih
雖為吸血鬼,事實上卻和人們認知的有極大的不同──好比說,血液不過是他們的主食之一,他們也不是非得吸血才能活,就如人類不食米飯照樣能以麵類代替,而喜愛在夜間活動的緣由,則是純血的夜行者在白晝的視力差到像睜眼瞎子,唯有夜視力是一等一的好,故此夜行者在白天都是戴著眼鏡的。624Please respect copyright.PENANA3lWD0eHxjo
624Please respect copyright.PENANA81dH8lsCQy
說是離家出走,但事實上,這是阿爾法生平頭一次獨自外出。624Please respect copyright.PENANA50qC0irZYk
624Please respect copyright.PENANAf8dSjyawut
然而,一個七歲的孩子,有什麼理由要不顧一切地離開家裡?當然有,而且還是攸關性命的大事,這麼說絕不誇張!624Please respect copyright.PENANAWDs1OGiUlz
624Please respect copyright.PENANAYsq8jCJe43
羅坦赫拉勒是母系社會,掌權者也是王后而非國王,因為他們根本就沒有國王──夜行者一族有個不成文的規定,或者該是說是無法抗拒的本能,女方懷孕後會吸食男方的血液至後者死亡為止,以血作為養分幫助日後生產,就像蜘蛛或螳螂吃食雄性一般。但他們又採一夫一妻制,故此結婚率並不高,國內也是女多男少。624Please respect copyright.PENANA8Y9WevLXEH
624Please respect copyright.PENANAhkw6jlLodZ
前幾任的在位者皆是王后,王族生產女嬰的機率也莫名的高,可這次產下的卻是王子。624Please respect copyright.PENANA1iJmmt7m3b
624Please respect copyright.PENANAEMAl1K1uL7
他們的能力和魔法是藉由血緣傳遞,要是空間的管理者能力不足、那麼整個空間將會崩毀,為了維持空間的安定,傳宗接代延續能力是必要的,然,這代表這位王子幾乎一即位就得面臨死亡的命運。624Please respect copyright.PENANAAJ2Uh6pJaZ
624Please respect copyright.PENANAtd4yHT1hb6
所以,從阿爾法懂事以來,他就非常討厭女人!而王室在七歲時得選出一名年齡相近的貼身僕役,照他母后的思維,有百分之九十九的機率是找女童擔任這個職務、還有可能擅自幫他私訂終身──他才不要這麼簡單就被宣判死刑!要僕人的話他就自己找,而且絕對非是男的不可!624Please respect copyright.PENANAESsLFD0Slw
624Please respect copyright.PENANATWJmc73J0v
阿爾法漫無目的的走著,只知道一定得避開人群,否則被抓回去的話他可是吃不了兜著走。624Please respect copyright.PENANAiHbHoERTK5
624Please respect copyright.PENANAdHCC7WWAmR
雖說是要自行尋找,但該去哪找他也不曉得,若是在路上隨便拉個人,說什麼「從今以後你就是本王子的手下了」之類的話,肯定被當作神經病,再者,他也明白暴露自己的身份會帶來很大的危險,要是有人覬覦王族的錢財而挾持他的話,那可是大大不妙。624Please respect copyright.PENANAJC2S9Qifzx
624Please respect copyright.PENANA1mm0B4vlVa
最好的方法就是,找個年紀跟他差不多的小孩,在不告知對方真相的情況下拐回宮內,可假如那人事後不願意也很麻煩……要找就得要沒有任何後台、依靠的傢伙,孤身一人更好……阿爾法如此忖著,腦中倏地閃過一個地點。624Please respect copyright.PENANAPsss5cfPD3
624Please respect copyright.PENANADX05pPELXm
他曾看過首都的地圖,在最外圍、接近外市邊界的區域,據說是流亡人士的聚集之地,假使到那裡去,應該能找到符合條件的人選吧?624Please respect copyright.PENANAB6UcNQhIkB
624Please respect copyright.PENANANcY7ZGzcLi
即便不知道確切的路線,但只要朝偏僻的地方走大概就沒問題了。624Please respect copyright.PENANAHMMOL9OaE0
624Please respect copyright.PENANA8NiEssC255
624Please respect copyright.PENANAYiZ7fbb4YJ
624Please respect copyright.PENANAWs3rqvzKHa
而這時的他卻忽略了,一個小孩去到那種地方也是很危險的。624Please respect copyright.PENANAI1UmwyCoXA
624Please respect copyright.PENANACtupzY5yHy
624Please respect copyright.PENANA20twnQSqEC

羅坦赫拉勒太陽出現的時間僅有三個小時,阿爾法便是趁這時跑出來的。在他們這裡,沒有什麼「月黑風高殺人夜」一說,畢竟對吸血鬼而言,入夜後絕對更方便活動。624Please respect copyright.PENANA0RS9EcUxHJ
624Please respect copyright.PENANA1QsiRXvFFU
雖說白天要溜掉比較容易,但此時街上的人也較少,要找人也更為困難。624Please respect copyright.PENANAdkjrl1b5XK
624Please respect copyright.PENANAHHLQbjuJFn
金髮男孩並沒有特別遮掩自己的長相,反正人民會記住的人最多也只有王后,倘若不刻意記憶、誰也不知道他是王子。624Please respect copyright.PENANAZqcjjjFbPt
624Please respect copyright.PENANAVfPAuTXFLa
行於巷弄中的阿爾法一時還沒有走到街上的打算,他走入的是住宅區而不是商區,高矮不一的房屋交錯著、建築物間的空隙形成了一條條狹窄的小徑,被屋瓦陰影籠罩的此處比外頭更為陰暗。624Please respect copyright.PENANAs8m51lLEGo
624Please respect copyright.PENANAeubkR97tSB
或許是離王宮較近的緣故,這裡的建築感覺也較新,也不知道要走多久才能走到首都邊緣,而搞不懂何謂比例尺的小孩子、自然不曉得地圖上極短的一條線,換算成實際道路可不是兩三下就能走完的。624Please respect copyright.PENANAyfPyzgRwPj
624Please respect copyright.PENANAOKe3beu7Lz
也不曉得確切方位,阿爾法只得挑感覺不會有人經過的地方走,一邊忖著如果有什麼交通工具能載他一乘就好了。624Please respect copyright.PENANAokhbBUz6FD
624Please respect copyright.PENANAcEAR0NUl00
但等到交通工具真的出現時,他馬上就後悔這麼想了。624Please respect copyright.PENANAr8arPqyYAF
