…… The child who was abandoned by his mother died in tears......

…… The child who was sold by his father became the daughter of an ancient god......

The great ancient god Belato, loved his daughter and gave her a beautiful name......

…………

Twelve years ago......

Although Charlotte has a prosperous business, no matter how good the town is, there will be a gathering place for the poor.

The sound of the rain ticking and hitting the tattered wooden shed made a crisp sound. A thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl ran in the rain with a few loaves of bread in her arms, and the rain flowed, wetting her green silk and wetting the bread in her arms.

Under the gloomy rain, the girl ran into an old stone house; She shook the rain from outside the door and walked in with the bread in her arms.

There was a faint light in the room, and there was a low wooden table; On one side of the wooden table, a small brazier was placed on the ground; The house is in the back, and there is only a rotten wooden bed. The bedding on the wooden bed was moldy and emitted a foul smell. A candle was lit on the low table, and the flickering light of the candle gently illuminated the poor room.

The girl had just put the bread on the table when she saw two men coming in through the door. The two men, a man and a woman, were about middle-aged, with patches on their bodies and sallow faces.

When the girl saw the man and woman enter the house, she called softly, "Dad, Mom! ”

The man nodded in response, but the woman ran to the low table and picked up the bread on it. As if seeing that the bread was wet with rain, the woman was a little dissatisfied, and shouted to the girl: "Xia Li, look at what you have done, the bread is wet." Then he muttered, 'How do you eat wet bread?'

The man frowned but didn't speak, just boiled a pot of water on the brazier, took out a cup, sat at the table and drank. The woman baked the bread dry, divided it into three and put it on the table, and beckoned the father and daughter to eat.

The woman was eating bread and rambling, saying, 'How can one loaf of bread be enough?'

Xia Li, the girl, was a little shy, and she didn't dare to speak when she listened to her mother's muttering, and ate quietly. The food was hard-won and precious, and even the bread crumbs that fell on the ground, Xia Li picked them up and ate them.

The man finished the bread in a few bites, drank the water and swallowed it, looked at Xia Li and said, "How much did you earn today?" ”

Xia Li's dress was stained with blood, and the hideous wounds on her arms reflected the gray and black clothes, so lonely. She rubbed her scarred hands and timidly took out a small cloth bag and put it on the table.

The woman hurriedly grabbed the small cloth bag and opened it to fumble around. The woman's eyes widened, she grabbed three copper coins from the cloth bag and threw them on the table, and scolded loudly: "Why are there only three copper coins left, say, are you hiding them privately?" After speaking, he twisted Xia Li's ears and pulled around.

Xia Li burst into tears in pain and cried: "No private collection, no." Mom, I really don't have a private collection. She cried and pleaded, but the woman would not let her go, still pulling at her ears.

Xia Li was full of tears, looking at the man on the side, trying to find help. But the man raised his eyes, snorted coldly, and ignored it.

The woman shouted: "There is no private hiding, so how can you have this money, you are deceiving the ghost......" The woman tore Xia Li's ears red, thinking that she was going to tear them off.

Xia Li cried and begged, and explained in a low voice: "When I was mining the Terra Stone, a magician from somewhere detonated the Terra Stone I mined. There's only a little bit left, you see, you see, I'm all hurt. As he spoke, he stretched out his arm, scratched his dress, exposed the wound, and motioned for the woman to look.

The woman didn't believe it, let go of her ears and slapped Xia Li, scolding: "You rotten person has learned to deceive people." Where did the magician come from, who had nothing to do to detonate the Terra Stone you mined? ”

"It's true, it's true." Xia Li covered her face and cried quietly, "Sometimes some magicians come back and play pranks......

Terra Stone, a magical ore on the original planet Terra, can still be mined on various lands in the Demon Realm after the collapse of Terra. This ore can be used as an energy source, which is very valuable, so it has attracted countless merchants to mine and sell.

However, the terra stone is buried deep in the ground, and there will be radiation spill when it is excavated, which is very harmful to the body. It is also not possible to use mana while mining, as the slightest fluctuation of mana will cause the Terra Stone to explode.

Xia Li cried and cried, but did not get the slightest mercy from the woman. The woman slapped Xia Li a few more times, scolded and walked away.

The rain didn't stop, and the cold wind blew in through the broken windows. Xia Li buried her head on the ground and wept, the crying and the sound of the rain outside the window were desolate. The woman still seemed to be angry, and scolded in a rambling manner.

Outside the window, the rain was pouring down, and the overcast sky was getting darker. Rats squeaked outside, and the wooden shed swayed in the wind. Candlelight peeked out of the dilapidated house, and the shouts and curses grew smaller and smaller in the cold rain.

The candlelight was blown out, and the man and woman lay on their beds discussing where to move goods for the merchant tomorrow. Xia Li on the ground had no one to comfort her, and she cried and cried and fell asleep.

Qingming after the rain, the early sun in the new day. Xia Li took a small cloth bag, carried a basket on her back, and went to the mine to dig for Terra Stone.

Time passed, and the day flew by. Xia Li took a few loaves of bread and hurried home.

The candlelight was lit, and Xia Li's parents dragged their tired bodies back; After resting, he took the bread from the table and ate it.

After the woman finished eating the bread, she asked Xia Li to wrap the little cloth for her; She counted the copper coins in her hand, carefully hid them, and then drank them contentedly.

Xia Li hesitated a little, but her thin body finally mustered up her courage, pursed her lips and said, "I, I don't want to go to the mine to collect Terra Stone." A few more people died in the explosion today, I'm afraid, I don't want to go. ”

The man stomped on the table with the cup, his face ruthless. The woman was so angry that she slapped Xia Li and scolded, "Not going? Where did you get the money? The hard work of our family is to go to the city to do business and get out of this poor life. If you don't dig it, where will the money be enough? ”

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid I'll be blown up too." Xia Li hesitated, "Although there is a lot of money, but, but...... Why don't I go with you to the city to carry things for the merchants, and that's ......."

Before Xia Li could finish speaking, the woman kicked Xia Li to the ground with a flying kick, and shouted loudly: "What are you thinking, what are you thinking......

It turned out that the couple had enough to live a poor life for half their lives, and they took out all their savings a few years ago and wanted to learn from others to do business. But after half a lifetime, the vision of the poor and the thinking of the poor can keep up with the trend of society, and it didn't take long to lose everything.

But the idea of being a rich man has been rooted in their hearts, and the husband and wife have successively lost their earnings. watched her grow up, and sent her to the fastest place to make money. How could these two people help businessmen as laborers, they were just looking for a way to make money, and they were deceived one after another.

Where did these two dare to let Xia Li follow them, they were afraid of being exposed, and they also vented all the anger they suffered outside on Xia Li.

Crying, shouting, scolding, and scolding, I survived another day in this miserable life.

It's still the old table, it's still the three loaves of bread, it's still the flickering candles. Xia Li knelt on the ground and begged in a low voice: "I really don't want to go, I really don't dare to go." Today, today two magicians are fighting outside the mines, and the magic fluctuations caused by them detonate a lot of Terra Stones. The explosion killed a lot of people, and I and I were all injured by the explosion......" he said, revealing his bloody arm.

The woman didn't care about Xia Li's injury, and she didn't care, she poured out boiling water and splashed Xia Li's body, scolding: "What's the use of raising you, what's the use of raising you......"

Xia Li was so hot that she screamed, and hot water and blood flowed all over the ground. She covered her face and cried in the corner, but no one cared.

The woman called the man aside and discussed, "This daughter seems to be useless, why don't you sell her?" ”

"Sell whom? When slaves were sold? The man thought for a moment and said, "It's not okay to be a slave to sell, if it's found by the guards, it's fatal." ”

The woman glanced at Xia Li who was crying in the corner, and said fiercely, "Sell that 'Ancient God Sect', do you think it's okay?" ”

Recently, a group of fanatical believers has emerged in Charlotte who believe in an ancient god and call themselves the Cult of Ancient Gods. However, under the pressure of the guards, these believers had no choice but to spread their teachings in the shadows, and many people were brought to the church; Strangely, these believers bought a lot of slaves and stole children.

The man was silent for a long time, and finally nodded in agreement.

…………

In the dimly lit alley stood three men in black cloaks, with a strange pattern tattooed on their chests. When the three of them saw a man and a woman tied up and dragged a girl over, they asked, "Are you the ones who want to trade?" ”

"Yes, sir." The man grovelled and smiled flatteringly.

One of the men in the black cloak lifted Xia Li on the ground, pinched her chin and looked at it, then turned around and said, "The foundation is not bad." Raising a good one may be a good thing. ”

Xia Li looked frightened, but her hands and feet were tied, and her mouth was covered, so she had to whine and struggle.

"It seems that you are not very willing to bring the goods." The black-cloaked man laughed, "Our Divine Cult can only accept those who are willing to be baptized by the ancient gods. ”

The woman smiled awkwardly and flattered, "The child is not sensible. It's her honor to join you, she doesn't understand, we just make the decision. After speaking, he pinched the man's waist and eyes.

"Yes, yes, yes......" the man nodded.

The black-cloaked man sneered, grabbed Xia Li and threw it to his companion behind him, bowed his head to the man and woman, and said, "Hmm...... OK. How many coins do you want? ”

"Well, a bag......" the man counted his fingers, "oh! No, ten gold coins are all you need. ”

"Ten? You're afraid you're trying to kill yourself. The black-cloaked man touched the short sword at his waist as if he didn't care.

Seeing this, the man looked panicked and said in a trembling voice: "Then, how much do you give?" ”

The black-cloaked man stretched out two fingers and said contemptuously, "Two at most!" ”

"Okay, okay......" The man and woman nodded in agreement, took the gold coin with a happy face, turned around and ran.

The companion behind the black-cloaked man watched the man and woman run away, took out a finger and swiped it on the neck, and asked, "Chief, do you want to ......?"

The black-cloaked man looked at the backs of the two and sneered, and shook his head, "It's just two gold coins." ”

…………

In the dark dungeon, the candles on the walls flickered, and all kinds of boys and girls were locked behind the iron bars. Xia Li curled up in the corner, helpless.

Xia Li estimated that the time to deliver meals every day should have been more than ten days. But the people in the dungeon are being captured day by day, and the panic is spreading here.

Time passed, and one day, several people wearing wide sacrificial clothes came to the dungeon. The boys and girls in the dungeon were very frightened, and they did not dare to look up; But these people are vicious, and they use 'illumination' to see the faces of one girl after another. When they saw Xia Li, the people were satisfied and took her out of the dungeon.

Charlie was taken away, forced to bathe and change her clothes, change into a sacrificial robe, and take her to the so-called 'temple'. She wore this robe, and her clean cheeks looked green and beautiful.

Countless people dressed in priestly robes fell to their knees and called her 'Holy Maiden'!

Xia Li was very frightened, and she didn't know what to do.

But time always wears down the will of man, and the task of the Holy Maiden is to wait in the temple all the time, waiting for the oracle of the 'Old Gods'. Xia Li also slowly got used to it, and seemed to be a little happy in her heart; Happy to get rid of hunger and beatings.

The stone statues of the ancient gods enshrined in this temple are very strange, with human bodies and snake-like faces. Although those people worship Xia Li as a holy woman, they have no concern for this 'god' and everything in the temple. This ancient god, this ancient god cult, has become a tool for them to collect money. And Xia Li didn't know anything about all this, just glad that she was able to eat enough.

Heaven and earth, in the fate of people, blessings and disasters depend on each other. A few years later, Xia Li has grown into a slim girl. A priest covets Charly's beauty and insults her in the temple after a drunken attempt.

Xia Li was frightened and helpless, begging the man on her body to let her go, but in exchange for getting worse; She stared blankly at the stone statue of the ancient god in the temple, begging for mercy from the gods. But the miracle did not come, she could only cry silently and endure silently.

This accident brought countless priests to Xia Li's greed, and they were humiliated again and again, crying and endured again and again. Finally, Charlie went crazy; She screamed at the injustice of Heaven and the indifference of God. hated those who abused her, hated her own powerlessness, hated everything......

One dark night, Charlie bites off the neck of her abuser. Blood gushed like a fountain, she sucked the blood, her eyes lit up, she felt the power she had never had in her body, and muttered in her mouth: "Lord Demon God, Lord Demon God, I understand, I understand." It turns out that this is how it ......"

Charlie knelt down in front of the idol, as if she had heard the oracle of God; She exclaimed, laughing, "Ah...... So you're Belato-sama...... Oh? Do you want me to be your daughter and give me the power of God? ”

"O great Lord Bellato, I will be baptized by you and become your most beautiful daughter...... The best sacrifice for you! ”

The night is like ink, there are no stars and moonlight, and no one knows what kind of revelation Xia Li has received in this gloomy temple.

Pear blossoms with tears and rain, long hatred and no one else. Crying old dreams, where to find people.

The lamp and candle shake the heart, helplessly sprinkled the remnants. Bloodthirsty and evil ghosts, leaving the devil to speak.

Xia Li has now obtained the power of 'God', killed all the people she wanted to kill, and killed all the people who abused her. She drained the men's blood and slowly rose to her feet in the temple.

"My name is Diorbe, and I am the daughter of the ancient demon god......"

"Blood, greater power......"

Sad and sorrowful, drizzling and streamering. The innocent girl, what has become now.
