The beginning of a story

(What I wrote here is something I used to write, and I suddenly found it when I was rummaging through the cabinets at home.) Now, at someone's request, I'm sending it up for everyone to see. And don't expect me to keep writing, after all, it was written more than a year ago, and I don't know what I was thinking now!)

Sdeno World. It has been a long time since there has been such a quiet moment on the mainland. The scars caused by the Third Demon War have only just completed their initial repair. With the carnival of the feast of the gods the day before yesterday, the creatures on the mainland can finally rest for a while.

On the road from the Holy City to Vermir, the capital of the Stone Kingdom, three carriages were galloping fast. In the years that have just ended in the Third Demon War, all races are trying to repair the wounds they have suffered. Even the centaurs who made a living from raiding were not in the mood to loot at this time. Of course, they can't grab anything now.

So, the Grand Duke of Fenrir of the Stone Kingdom, with only a few guards and his own family, was heading to the capital of Vermir to participate in the feast of gods of all races after the feast of the gods. Every ten years, the feast of the gods always alternates between the three human kingdoms, and this time it was only at the right time in Fomir.

Unlike her mother, Luna Fenrir is a lively little girl. At this time, she was putting her hands on the window edge of the carriage, looking at the hard-won emerald green of the earth, and humming an unknown tune in her mouth.

The scenery outside the car flew by in front of her eyes, and the five-year-old girl felt that it was so fresh. But something more fresh was about to appear before her eyes.

Earth. Perhaps long after the Third World War. Instead of fresh air and the scent of flowers, deadly radiation fills every corner. Every life that survived the final nuclear attack was precious, and the governments that were fortunate enough to survive the United States launched a plan to transform Mars, allowing the Martian environment to give life on Earth a breathing space for a while.

However, as is the case in many movies, not every life can be saved. At the moment when all human beings are about to come to an end, human beings have finally thrown away some prejudices and most of their private opinions, and finally found dignity for human beings at the final moment. Under the premise of the continued existence of the human race, all personal interests are too small, newborns, young adults, technicians and scientists are the first to be included in the evacuation list, they are necessary for the reproduction and recovery of a race. Warriors and spiritual leaders were placed on the second evacuation list, which was necessary to get humanity through the most difficult of times.

Those who leave do not look back, and those who remain do not speak. At the very least, the brilliance of human nature finally burst out in addition to the dazzling light.

Most of the people left behind survived and took refuge in shelters deep underground, and the flame of civilization was not extinguished on the ruined Earth, and perhaps in a few years, when their compatriots on Mars returned to Earth, they would be amazed by the civilization here.

But there is always a lack of accidents in the universe. When the last migrant ship had just left Earth, it was hit by a massive amount of cosmic junk. In order to ensure the safety of most people, some of the more damaged cabins had to be abandoned. Some of them were affected by the gravitational pull of the Earth and fell back to Earth.

In the compartment that fell back to Earth, there was a compartment with damage that was not severe, and with the young passengers inside, it fell on a missile that was left at the landmark for some reason. In the same way, there is no shortage of accidents on the earth. After the loud explosion, the place was empty.

Sdeno World. Little Luna suddenly saw a flaming steel meteor in front of her eyes, and it rushed to the ground with no return. "Bang !!" An earth-shattering crash exploded in the ears of all the creatures nearby. Immediately afterward, a huge shock wave overturned the three carriages directly.

After a long time, Archduke Fennir, who came back to his senses, asked his guards to go over to check on the situation. A short time later, the guards appeared in front of him with a six- or seven-year-old boy who had fainted, as well as a Divine Crystal in front of him.

Grand Duke Fennel held the Divine Crystal in his hand and tried to inject a trace of his spiritual power into it.

With the spiritual power input of Grand Duke Fennel, the crystal suddenly emitted a burst of dazzling light. After a while, as if breaking through some kind of critical point, the brilliance began to sharpen. Grand Duke Fennel let go of the crystal and let it fall to the ground.

The brilliance that had become extremely sharp, weaving an image in the air with lines, and the figure of a human in heavy armor gradually took shape under the effort of the light.

"Well, little Fennel, it's good to see you. An inexplicable voice began to float through the air, "I remember the last time I saw you, you were still standing behind your father, and now you can be on your own." ”

"The crystallization of temporary condensation does not contain much divine power. So I'll leave the gossip to the Shinkai banquet two days later. The heavily armored human nodded at Grand Duke Fennir and pointed at the boy who was still asleep in the guard's arms, "Every ten years, due to the Feast of the Gods, the crystal wall layer of the world has always been extremely fragile during this time. The passage of a large number of gods caused it to become riddled with holes. Many things from the astral plane, and even all kinds of things outside the Aether Sea, will easily enter here. The boy was not surprised. He came from a place that was incredibly far away from us, where there were different customs, different cultures. It was as if he had been given some kind of mission. The thoughts of an entire race were attached to him, which made him unusual in some ways. This allowed him to survive his passage through the already fragile, but unusually powerful crystalline layer for ordinary people. It's not easy. And a life that has been so much tempered, buried in the mouth of a beast in the wilderness, should not be what he deserves. So, I want you to adopt him and teach him, that I can dimly see that prayer will play an important role in the next war. In return, you will receive a boost in your mental power, making it easier for you to break through to your current level. ”

"It's not bad for me, is it?" said Archduke Finnier, "I'll take care of him, Crown Gallon the Knight of Glory." This child will be treated the same as my daughter, the same education, and even I will adopt him as my adopted son. ”

"Well, so be it. Take the crystal to Master Astral, and he'll pay you. The sound in the air was still echoing, and the sharp light that made up the image had gradually blurred and dissipated into the air.

Grand Duke Fennel paused for a moment and stepped forward to pick up the crystal.
