In the already dimly lit hall room, a silver-haired girl who looked like the Holy Lady Orga sat quietly in a wheelchair, her eyes closed.

Ellia Leano was silent, accompanied by the ball of light, Lolo. The ball of light was Lolo's favorite pale blue at this time—Lolo had told her in his heart. Although the girl didn't know what blue looked like, she couldn't imagine it anyway.

The girl was born blind and her legs were unconscious - and from the moment she was born, she became a girl who could never make a sound. Because of these disabilities, she has never had many friends.

"Where's my mother?" asked young Ellia, who had sat in a wheelchair with the ball of light in her arms, pulling at the corner of her father's coat.

"Mommy gave birth to you and died...... dad replied every time - he never mentioned the past, and for some reason never tried to get married.

The girl often felt lonely, but fortunately she was always accompanied by the ball of light, which dispelled a lot of loneliness - on her seventh birthday, a friend of her father's gave it to her.

His father told him that he was an elf from Eloa, whose name was Sebodat Marion. After that day, the man came every year on her birthday, and also had her favorite friends: the Emir's family, Rusa Emile, Geos Emir, and Yasha Emile. Mr. Geos is a werewolf who has a good time talking to his father, and Asha and Lusha are Aya friends who have a lot of fun with her.

However, I don't know why, I haven't heard from Lusha in the past few years...... She misses Lusha and Yasha very much, and being born in Japan should be a rare and colorful day of the year for her to look forward to.

The same is true of my father...... In the past, her father would take her out for a walk from time to time. Although her eyes could not see and she could not make sounds, her hearing was very keen - she liked to hear all kinds of wind and bird calls, especially the barking of small dogs - she got along well with dogs, especially big dogs - they gave her a strong sense of security. Once Ellea owned a big dog named Bobby, the Nord breed. However, since her accidental death from a horse stampede, she has refused to have any more dogs, which always reminds her of Poppy.

She didn't like to go to the market, where there were so many people and it was too noisy, and she always heard people's voices talking, and then she felt the sharp gaze like a sword. It always made her feel very uneasy, and she preferred to hide in the shadows that belonged to her.

She didn't want to disturb her father's precious time in the afternoon when he practiced swords and read with an oil lamp in the study, she felt that she had taken up enough of her father's time.

The sound of her father's conversation with a man was getting faint, and a somewhat sleepy Allia was already sleepy - she hadn't slept all afternoon, and Lolo had been reading her a thick history book that intrigued Ellia but her father said it was boring - it was about the origins of the worlds of the World Tree. The scene of Ellia reading a book really surprised Annusen: Ellea was sitting quietly in a wheelchair with a ball of light in her arms. In front of her lay a book on the table, the whole of which was wrapped in a halo of the same color as the ball of light, which would automatically turn to the next page every time the ball read a page in her mind for Elia.

"Master, are you sleepy?" said Lolo's voice. Lolo is her contract enchantment, able to communicate with her internally, and then convey what Ellia wants to say to others.

"Hmm. Ellia shrank slightly, and the cold autumn wind blew in through the window: "Lolo...... I'm a little cold. ”

"Understood. The ball of light that emitted heat swelled: "Master, is it warm?"

"Hmm...... Much better. Thank you. Allia felt the heat radiating from it, and couldn't help but think - this was the only friend she could talk to.

"Is there anything else I can do to help?" the ball of light sounded happy.

"That'...... Tell me a story, won't you?" said Ellia wanted to hear a story to pass the time.

"Okay, what kind of story does the master want to hear?" said Luo Luo excitedly after thinking about it. The voice of the ball of light is like that of a little girl—an apt metaphor for Aiya like Lusha and Asha. Ellia relied on Lolo more than her father.

"I don't know...... Will Lolo tell her a story you like?" Ellia always asked Lolo to tell her stories, and the stories that the ball of light knew seemed endless, always attracting a girl's full attention. It is also thanks to the ball of light that Ellia can gradually enrich her inner world. Even, she read no less than the number of books that some of the school city bachelors have read.

"Oh...... So...... "Ahsan is a subspecies of insect evolved with a tough biomass shell and strong muscles, they are naturally fierce fighters, but never attack other Eborns. They dwell on the earth and on the rocks. (Eborn is a collective term for humanoid beings with souls of their own.) On the other hand, Datos, the Ebon who has been deprived of his soul or bewitched by an evil god)

"Hmm...... What kind of story is this, Lolo?" Ellia liked Ahsan's story, because it is said that there are several subspecies in Aya's kingdom, Alloa, among which the elves, werewolves, and Ahsan are the most closely related.

"I want to think about it...... Sad story?" the ball of light thought for a moment.

"I don't like sad stories......," Ellia thought regretfully. This idea was passed on to Luo Luo, who flicked it: "If the master wants to hear other stories, Luo Luo still has it......!

"Elia...... Kid, are you hungry?" Accompanied by the footsteps of the stranger's departure, the father's slightly apologetic tired voice came, interrupting Lolo's thoughts to Elia: "Although it was sudden...... But before dinner, there's something I have to tell you. ”

"What's the matter, Daddy?" Lolo said Alria's thoughts. The ball of light has no facial features, and it looks like it's just a ball of light that shines brightly. When Lolo's gaze is fixed in a certain direction, the arc of light will appear on the body of the ball of light in the corresponding direction.

"We'll have to get out of here before dawn tomorrow, sorry for the suddenness ......," Anusen sighed and looked out the window—the sun was already setting behind the twilight sea.

"Where are you going?"

Ellia heard her father walking around, closing the door and closing the curtains. Then, he approached Ellia lightly and whispered in his ear, "Thirteen Worlds...... We're going to get there quickly. ”

"Daddy...... What are you going to do there?" Ellia didn't react, and the ball of light asked first.

"Can't say it yet, kid. The man leaned down and straightened the girl's shirt. His voice was anxious, but surprisingly calm: "It's not safe here anymore - trust Dad, okay?"

His expression was complicated, as if something was wrong. Lolo said to Ellia in her heart. Somewhat overwhelmed, the girl didn't reply, just nodded silently.

"Lolo, go get some dinner for Elia, I'm going to pack my bags first. After patting Lolo, Dad loosened his shirt and stood up. At this moment, she suddenly felt inexplicable fear and hurriedly grabbed the corner of her father's clothes.

"It's going to be fine, daughter. With a sigh, Dad paused and walked away again.

Shaking her head helplessly, Ellia suddenly trembled with fear, but she didn't know where it came from.

She felt like someone was watching her...... It seems to be hiding in the shadows of nowhere.

As if it was an auditory hallucination, a low laugh came from his head, spreading the chill throughout his body.
