Prologue Chapter 1 Work for her

Next Chapter

The body, even the strongest cage in the world, could not stop the free soul, which followed the wind and wandered on this seemingly vast land that could soar at will. It vented the unwillingness that had accumulated in the depths of its heart, because from the moment it became conscious, it was condemned to spend a lifetime with endless darkness. Maybe it's just gambling, trying to prove that it can break out of the world without a body!

It has seen the world all over the world, experienced the vicissitudes of life, and is tired of war and killing......

Time disguised as a cute elf to show off his beauty in front of people, and everyone went crazy and even paid for their lives. Idle, it watched with peace of mind as those stupid guys followed it with heavy footsteps, and watched them go from ignorance to another friend who also wore a mask every day with a different mask to show his sincerity and friendliness!

It wasn't until that moment that it finally understood......

"It's just a kind of self-consolation for you ignorant of you!" a voice sounded in my ear.

"Maybe! Maybe there is a person in the world who will fight for a promise all his life...... "Although this story is not true, it still started with my wishful thinking."

The tarot master knelt heavily on the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood, enduring the heart-rending pain, turning over the last card on the ground, and when he saw that it was a grim reaper, he showed a smile of relief, "I ......see! Ha...... Great! Brother...... Looks like that's all I can do to help......". I watched him slowly fall, and I knew that he should be blind, that he had completed his quest and did his best to help me, and that all I could do was make his death more worthwhile.

The blood-red sun roared incessantly, as if to destroy what little of my will remained. Now I ...... Drops of hot sweat slid down the top of his head, scorching the skin of his face. The only people standing in the valley were me and ...... "Does it make sense to go on like this?" I couldn't see him, only the vague outline and the words that echoed in every corner of the valley.

Before I knew it, another day had passed, and the night in the valley was quiet and bitterly cold. I feel like every piece of skin on my body is no longer mine, and if I move it now, it could be death. I didn't know what to do? Looking around, all I could see was dried bones and broken limbs, and I dragged my tired body forward a few steps. I wanted to give up and lie down and sleep, when a very weak but unusually firm voice in my heart told me, "I swear not to fall!".

All I could hear in the dead valley was my breathing and my heartbeat, and although I knew that I wouldn't win now, I knew that my body couldn't bear to drag it any longer, and that I would have to see what the outcome was. What is all this for? maybe...... The bits and pieces of the past passed before my eyes like a movie, but she ...... None of them will come back!hehe...... If that day ...... There is no if in this world, even for her and for them, I can't fall here, I must leave this hellish place alive. I must prove myself to them, and I can prove that I can do what others can do!

"Ahh......h

The shrill alarm snapped me back to reality, and I shook my head and sat up limply from the bed.

"Was that a dream? Well, it should be a dream!" I made my definition, but there was still a trace of doubt in my heart, as if that dream was real, as if it had happened in reality.

"Whatever!" I didn't think much about it, I couldn't think about it too much, and I would be late for school if I thought about it.

After a simple breakfast, I gave my mother the report card of the monthly exam to sign with trepidation. Seeing the report card of not passing a subject, my mother's face instantly became ugly, but it is conceivable that her scolding has not stopped in the next ten minutes. Fortunately, just as I had imagined, my mother had to stop teaching because I was late for school, so I put away the signed transcript and ran out of the house and in the direction of the school. Although I didn't stop all the way, the bell that arrived at the school still rang when I was still more than ten meters away from the school, as if it was deliberately trying to fix me.

I took three steps and two steps to the door of the seventh class of junior high school, but the door of the classroom was mercilessly closed, and the sound of reading the text aloud in the morning came from inside. I reluctantly knocked on the classroom door, and immediately the sweet voice of the head teacher was heard inside, but what I heard now was like a demon from hell.

"Come in!" the head teacher probably guessed that it was me.

"Report!" I pushed the door into the classroom, and everyone in the class immediately stopped reading and looked at me in unison, and the head teacher stepped down from the podium and walked in front of me with elegant steps.

"Zhuo Shengtian, do you order anything other than being late for class?" said the head teacher staring at me with murderous eyes.

"I ......" I really wanted to refute at the moment, but I couldn't say a word.

"Why don't you hurry up and sit down in your seat, how long do you want to stand here!" said the head teacher coldly.

I knew in my heart that I was the lowest and least popular in this group of the class. In the eyes of the head teacher, I am a person who drags the class back, she will not give me a good look, and I will not get a minimum of respect here. I sat down in my seat depressed, took out my Chinese textbook and prepared for class.

"Why are you late again?" I had just sat down when a voice like a silver bell sounded in my ears, and in the short words I could hear a hint of reproach but more concern.

"It's not the monthly exam transcript yet. I replied depressedly.

"Then you can't use a snack?" I could hear her tinge of displeasure.

The owner of this voice is my tablemate, her name is Meng Yiting, she is 16 years old this year, and she is a very cute girl. She had almost no friends in the class other than me, because everyone called her "ugly" and she was very autistic all the time. In fact, she was originally very beautiful, but a fire at the age of 9 left a large indelible scar on the right side of her face. In the strange eyes of everyone, she slowly fell silent, rarely in contact with others and rarely spoke. But she is a very lovely girl in my eyes, she cares about me very much, and I know that she loves me silently from the bottom of her heart, because I also love her silently.

"You also know that I'm not the material for learning. I said nonchalantly.

"But have you ever thought about it...... If we can't get into the same high school, we're going to be separated. Meng Yiting's calm words were like a hurricane that stirred up huge waves in my originally calm heart.

I hadn't thought about it like this, but I had been avoiding the issue and didn't want to mention it, but her words today made me feel a trace of bitterness that I had never felt before. I was in a trance throughout the Chinese class, and her seemingly calm words just now echoed in my mind, until the loud bell of class pulled me back to reality.

"I'm sorry I worried you. Meng Yiting took out the textbook for the next class and said to me faintly.

"You're right, I can't run away from this problem all the time! for our ...... I'm going to study hard from now on, and I'm sure I'll do well in my midterm exams. I said with a lot of determination.

"Hehe~" Although I don't know what she laughed at, that pure smile strengthened my inner thoughts.

In the month leading up to the midterm exams, I spent all my time studying, except for eating and sleeping. Every day when I got home, I locked myself in the door and didn't come out except for dinner. At first, my parents didn't understand and thought I was doing something, but then I realized that I was in a hurry to study, so I didn't say anything anymore.

After taking classes in school, Meng Yiting lent me her notes, and then explained to me with a smile what I didn't understand. Of course, hard work can always see a little reward, three days before the midterm exam, I completed a mock exam under the "supervision" of Meng Yiting, but what I didn't expect was that I actually scored 485 points in the mock paper. I saw Yiting smile knowingly, and I had an indescribable sweetness in my heart.

Even so, I didn't relax for the remaining three days, and I didn't sleep until the night before the exam......
