"Run, run, get out of town!"

A rapid but majestic woman's voice came from the air to the ground, as if the source of the sound came from another world.

However, the residents of the city did not seem to hear this voice falling from the sky, and continued to do their daily work.

The church in the center of the city still lazily chimes its bells.

- Except, a teenager in a narrow alley.

The boy asked into a voice in the sky

"Who, who's there? Who are you? ”

And the voice in the sky, as if he hadn't heard the boy's inquiry at all, was still repeating the sentence.

"Run, run! Get out of here!! ”

The boy ran wildly in the narrow alley, but there was a little more unknown fear in his heart.

He vaguely felt in his heart the collapse and despair of the world, and he was also faintly aware of the fear of the end times.

However, these things seem to be never-ending. The various buildings around the narrow alley seem to be slowly anthropomorphizing, and the outer walls of the buildings slowly turn into the shape of human faces, smiling at the boy.

The scene suddenly felt unusually dim and terrifying.

Suddenly, the clear sky was instantly covered with dark clouds, and black clouds instantly swallowed the entire sky.

A bolt of lightning struck the church in the center of the town, and the torrential rain poured down on the entire town.

In the midst of the storm and rain, the woman's voice grew stronger. Continue to reverberate in the air.

The boy also ran faster and faster, as if he was about to be swallowed up by the alley, and the road in the alley became narrower and narrower.

The buildings on both sides slowly rise, as if the whole building has been stretched! The "human face" composed of the outer wall has also become extremely hideous and terrifying.

At this moment, the buildings on both sides suddenly collapsed in an instant! Dust and boulders struck in the direction of the boy, and the ground where the boy was gradually sunken like quicksand.

The soles of the boy's feet suddenly slipped, and he stepped into the air in an instant, and almost fell. He grabbed the rock next to him just in time.

Just as the boy was trying to climb back out of the rock, a bolt of lightning struck his rock-holding hand.

A.D, 1789, early morning, on the outskirts of the Vizier. Clear.

A teenager suddenly woke up in the grass. Faint sunlight scattered scattered over the fields.

"Whew, it's just a dream."

The boy wore a short brown hat, a slightly gray shirt, a brown waistcoat, and dark brown hair pressed into the hat.

He slowly sat up from the grass.

"Huh? I actually fell asleep! It's already this time! Hey.,I guess I'm going to be scolded by Mr. Frio again.。。 ”

The boy got up from the grass and was about to turn around.

"Hey! Raul! Why are you sleeping here! Really! You don't go back to Mr. Frio! He's about to lose his temper! ”

A girl's voice came from not far away, and although it was slightly emotional, her voice was very sweet.

"Ahh Tia! I'm going to be ... ”

Before he could finish speaking, Tia immediately ran up to Raul, grabbed his ear, and shouted with her mouth to his ear.

"Right now, right now! Look at what time it is! Really! Do you know how anxious I am looking for you! ”

"Ahhh Tap! Pain and pain!! Ear! My ears are about to fall out! Raul shouted with an unusually painful expression.

Raul is tugged by Tia's ears and dragged to Mr. Frio's house. (No, it should be dragged to be exact!) ）

On the outskirts of Vizier, at noon, a remote blacksmith's shop.

In the room of the blacksmith's shop, a large pile of materials used for processing was piled up in the corner, and they were scattered together.

On the right hand side of the room, near the door, there was a burned, reddish blacksmith's table. Next to him stood an old man with a white beard.

The old man wears a worn blacksmith vest and a green pirate turban with a skull motif. Pulling his cuffs, he was seriously hammering the wrought iron on the blacksmith's table.

At this time, there was a commotion at the door from far and near.

"Hey, don't pinch it anymore! Tia, ears are really going to fall out! ”

"Less verbose! You see you are sloppy, your clothes are dirty like this, and you run to sleep in the grass! ”

"Okay, okay, I know, let go, please!"

"Bang!"

The door was pushed open with a bang.

"It's !!! noisy"

The old man shouted, his pipe still smoking.

When the two men saw the old man, they immediately separated.

"Hey, old man, I,,,that,,that.."

Raul said hesitantly.

"What! Why don't you get to work!!! Because of your tardiness, don't eat dinner today!! ”

Old man Frio yelled at Raul.

Hearing this, Raul obediently sorted out the materials on the ground.

Tia also hurried to help Frio beat his back, smiling as he did so.

"Grandpa, in fact, Raul has worked very hard, so, grandpa, don't blame him anymore...

"Shut up! You too! Don't go get the fire smaller! If this sword is wasted, neither of you will be allowed to eat!" ”

"Yes!"

The two shouted in unison, their expressions also frightened.

After all, Old Man Freio's temper is very impatient, and although the two of them have long been used to it, they are still very afraid of the old man.

The blacksmith continued to be noisy as usual, and the clanging of bells was heard from time to time. Of course, it was also accompanied by the quarrel between Raul and Tia, and the loud scolding of the old man, after all, this is normal for the three of them.

Outside the vizier, night, breeze

Raul was alone in his room, his stomach making a grumbling sound from time to time.

"Eh, the old man is so strict, he really didn't give me anything to eat, and my stomach was going to be hungry~"

"Knock Knock"

There was a sharp knock on the door, and a deliberately muffled voice

"Hey, Raul, open the door."

Tia deliberately urged softly.

The door opened.

"Tia, you~"

Raul hung outside the door, watching Tia risk being punished by her grandfather with her own meal in her hands.

"No, this was specially made for you, and it was not discovered by grandpa. Now grandpa is asleep, that's why I just came, you have to eat quietly. Ah, by the way, I made your favorite meatballs for you. You've had a busy day today, so let's eat. ”

Tia winked at Raul in a funny way.

"Tia."

Raul looked at Tia, with a little tears in his eyes, and an indescribable sourness and emotion in his heart. He looked at Tia in a daze.

Tia, the daughter of the blacksmith Frio, has a long ponytail, slightly reddish hair, a high nose bridge, and just the right lips. She wears denim suspenders with a light yellow top underneath. It looks very smart and neat. Although the breasts are not fully developed, they also have a certain feminine charm.

Raul looked at Tia and was unconsciously stunned. Although Raul has been in the blacksmith shop for one year, he has rarely observed Tia closely. It was also the first time that I saw such a gentle side of Tia, and it turned out that Tia was so beautiful.

"Smack"

A resounding slap was drawn into Raul's face.

"What are you seeing, pervert, eat your meal."

This is actually Tia's special ability, whenever Tia is shy, it will instinctively trigger the potential violent nerves in her heart. Because of this, she has sent guests who are usually not very polite to her into the ward many times.

Raul covered his face in pain, and just as he was about to eat, there was a sudden "coughing" sound outside the door.

"Ahh

Tia hurriedly blocked Raul's mouth with a ball, and she herself hurriedly crawled under the bed.

The door opened.

A heavily armed brown-haired man in a blue slit uniform and a blue military cap appeared before them. The man had two neat mustaches, and the brim of his military hat almost obscured his face. The face is also very gloomy.

"Ahem, excuse me, is it the Frio Blacksmith Shop? Ahem, I'm sorry, the outside door doesn't seem to be locked, I just pushed it lightly, and the door opened by itself. Ahem, so I came in, ahem, ahem, ahem. ”

The officer coughed as he spoke, as if his lungs were going to be coughed out by him.

"Huh? Hmm, hmm. Never mind! ”

Raul hurriedly swallowed the food.

"The blacksmith is closed, come back tomorrow."

Raul said as he looked at the officer in front of him.

"Uh, ahem, Mr. Frio, are you going to rest? Ahem, okay, I'll have time to come back then. Ahem, ahem, ahem. ”

"No, it's okay."

The door was shut

"Whew, are you leaving?"

Tia asked quietly

"Mm-hmm, it's not an old man. It's a strange uncle who can't stop coughing, and he seems to have come to find Old Man Frio. ”

"Huh? Isn't the door closed? How did he get in? ”

Tia asked in surprise,

"The uncle said that the gate was not locked, so,,"

Raul said, feeling confused. Because, he clearly remembers, every night, the door outside the house is firmly locked with chains. Moreover, today he also saw Tia lock the door with his own eyes.

"Tia, let's go out and have a look."

"Good. Then I'll get out of under the bed first, it's so narrow. ”

Tia said as she struggled to crawl out from under the bed.

And the moment Raul saw Tia crawl out from under the bed, he suddenly had an inexplicable feeling in his heart. He suddenly felt as if this scene had happened. The whole world seems to have become black and white in Raul's mind, and the gray tone is like time freeze, why? Why did Tia have such an inexplicable sense of sadness the moment she crawled out from under the bed? Why do I think that? Why, exactly? Why?

In the depths of Raul's heart, he suddenly didn't know why such a fluctuation occurred, and even Raul himself didn't know, what was wrong?

Raul stood there silently, and there was an inexplicable noise in his ears that grew louder and louder. Enough to make his head explode.

"Raul, Raul, what's wrong with you? You, are you okay? ”

Tia was concerned and finally woke Raul up.

"Huh? Tia. I, I just momentarily didn't know why, it was very painful. ”

"You didn't know what was wrong just now, you stayed there in a daze, and you didn't answer."

"Well, I don't know, okay, no matter what, maybe it's a cold. By the way, let's go and see the door, I don't know what happened to the door. ”

Raul ran out first.

Tia had just seen Raul's appearance and was a little worried. But he still ran to the door outside.

When the two arrived, they found out almost at the same time. The chains of the gate were tied to the door as they were. The position of the lock is exactly the same as the position of Tia's previous lock. Both of them showed surprised expressions, that person, exactly! How did you get in from the outside?

Vizier, midnight, on a nondescript street corner.

Bursts of piercing coughing still existed, and the terrible coughing sound of "cough cough, cough cough, cough cough, cough cough" was still destroying, and the peace of the whole town echoed quietly around the corner of the street.
