Ever since I stepped into this forest, I've begun to regret why I followed them into this uncharted territory. I had this thought, not because of my timidity, but when I stepped on this wet land, I don't know why a strong uneasiness suddenly swept through my heart and pulled me into the dark abyss.

However, I didn't stop, but gripped Arthur's hand tighter for some reassurance.

Arthur didn't cry out in pain, nor did he show the slightest disgust, but just smiled at me like he was nothing, stepped over the fallen leaves, gently took my hand, and slowly walked forward.

I kept holding Arthur's hand, bowing my head slightly and silently, and there seemed to be nothing else along the way except for fallen leaves and the occasional gray hare and brown squirrel that popped up, and seemed to be fairly safe.

Arthur told me various stories as he went, as if to dispel my uneasiness, and I pretended to listen carefully, nodding in with her from time to time.

I stopped, a strong sense of uneasiness permeated my heart, and I panicked, and I looked around—the leaves of the trees were staggered and falling, like the flourishing flowers that sprinkled among the verdant greenery, covering the wet earth.

I raised my head and peered through the countless gaps in front of me, gazing at the light that penetrated me......

It's glaring.

It's not light, it's a needle, it's a sword.

I hid my hand in front of my eyes, and I don't know why I had such an idea.

"What's wrong? Why did it stop? What is your ...... position? ”

Arthur turned his head to look at me, saw my strange behavior, and couldn't help but ask me.

"No, nothing ......"

I was just halfway through my answer, but suddenly the fierce wind suddenly rolled up, like the mad lord wantonly picking up the loose leaves on the ground, and slashing at our faces, covering our eyes.

"Quack~~~~~~

However, at this moment, a roar similar to that of a ferocious beast suddenly came from the surroundings, which made people's hearts tremble to hear. It slowly approached, surrounding us to the left and right, bringing us closer to the middle, and suddenly fearful......

The black shadow suddenly struck, and was about to pounce out.

"Go!"

Yu Bo shouted, then quickly took out a worn-out lighter from his pocket, lit the wooden branch under his feet, quickly held it in his hand, and glared angrily in the direction of the beast.

It looked at Yu Bo for three seconds, then quickly turned its head and disappeared into the jungle.

"It's gone!"

Arthur, breathing a sigh of relief, patted his chest to calm himself. I relaxed my stiff shoulders and wiped the sweat from my forehead with my hands, unloading my tense nerves.

"Buzz~~~~"

Just when we thought that the crisis had passed and we had relaxed, we saw that the swarm of poisonous bees suddenly attacked Xiaoyu from the direction behind me.

"Ah!!!h

Xiaoyu screamed, and I immediately reached out but couldn't catch her, and she fell backwards into the quagmire in front of her, and quickly fell into it.

"Uh......h Woo......! ”

Xiaoyu's face contorted with fear, and her body was quickly sucked into the mire.

When I look closely, it's not a quagmire, it's a swamp! A place with endless suction power to swallow people into the abyss of despair!

"Light rain, light rain!"

I clawed desperately in front of my eyes, looking for Xiaoyu's hands......

"Char, Char...... Are you okay? ”

Arthur, who was standing next to me, looked at my face in surprise and waved his hand in front of my eyes, looking worried.

I, coming back to my senses, looked at the light rain beside me, she was still standing there well, there was no mud pool, and there were no poisonous bees.

Nothing happened?

No way! No way!

I saw Xiaoyu in front of me and she fell backwards and fell in, and she fell into the swamp!

But why...... She's still standing in front of me, nothing?

Is it my hallucination?

No, no! That creepy sense of realism must have happened, or is about to happen......

Thinking of this, I snatched the lit branch from Yu Bo's hand and stood in front of Xiaoyu.

"Hum~"

Behind me, I heard the sound of poisonous bees flapping their wings.

"It's coming!"

I quickly turned around and saw swarms of poisonous bees coming head-on in the direction of the light rain.

"Go away! Go away! ”

I shouted and waved the sticks as I took off my clothes and put them on Xiaoyu's head.

"Woo~Woo......"

Xiaoyu, I will definitely protect you! I'll definitely protect you! I'm not going to let that happen right in front of my eyes!

I cried out in my heart over and over again, and embraced her small body into my arms, using my back to resist the bite of the poisonous bee.

"I'll help you!"

"And me!"

Seeing my embarrassment, the two of them set fire to the branches around them, raised them in their hands, and swung them at the swooping bee as I did.

The flash of fire, their red eyes, they paused in the air for a moment as if they were thinking, then quickly fluttered their wings, turned their heads, and flew towards the blue.

I looked at the blue, panted and sat on the ground, but my hand still trembled and stretched out to Xiaoyu, pulled off the clothes covering her head, and smiled reluctantly.

"Uh......h Woo......"

The light rain pounced on me, holding my head firmly with her immature hand, and sobbed.

yes, she's still a kid, she's already scared, right?

I gently patted her on the back and hugged her body, trying to soothe her emotions. But she suddenly put her mouth to my ear and called out in a very weak voice: "Brother."

Brother?

What brother?

Do I look like her brother?

Or am I her brother?

I was about to ask what was going on, but suddenly I was engulfed in darkness before me, and I immediately fell down and lost consciousness in an instant.

["Look, this world, do you think there is only one timeline? Do you think that all time flows from the past to the future? No, you are wrong, in an infinitely parallel universe, this world has neither a beginning nor an end. ”】

In the haze, the woman's voice echoed in my ears, her voice was so familiar, but I couldn't see her face clearly, I just fell asleep, forgetting her in my hippocampus. (The hippocampus, where the brain's memories are stored.) ）
