"Mr. Ghost, Mr. Ghost. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoLook, this is the camellia I just picked, how about it, isn't it beautiful? ”

As dusk approached, Pamela trotted to a small hill outside Talon County, and cheered loudly at Hiko, who was already waiting there.

And looking at Pamela, who was trotting all the way, Hiko waved his hand and said to her.

"It's punctual, little Pamela. Why, are you so eager to hear my story?"

"Yes, yes! I thought about the story that Mr. Ghost told me all night last night, but I couldn't understand why Mr. Ghost you would say that Snow White choosing the prince would be a wrong choice and would lose her happiness. Is there anything I don't understand?"

Little Pamela said as she placed the camellia in her hand into a circle made of stones in front of Hiko. At this time, the circle was full of all kinds of flowers, some of which had withered, and some of which were still very bright. Although they are just ordinary flowers that can be seen all over the mountains, under the dexterous hands of the little girl, these flowers are also decorated very eye-catching, and there is no messy and ordinary feeling at all.

Hiko watched as the lively little girl arranged the flowers she had prepared for herself, while staring at herself with a curious look. For a while, there was a feeling of Alexander. He can't tell such a different little girl the difference between a **** and a seven ****. So he could only use his brains and excuse himself for a very far-fetched reason.

"That, you know. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs are very, very good friends. It is impossible to be happy to give up these friends for the sake of a prince and be imprisoned in a big castle to wash clothes and cook for the prince every day. ”

"Is that what it looks like?"

Little Pamela's eyes blinked, full of my age, don't lie to me. And seeing her pose like this, Hiko immediately felt a full sense of guilt in his heart.

I really can't tell her those damn fairy tales on Earth. I've heard a lot of meat jokes and ghost animal fairy tales, and now I can't even remember what a real fairy tale looks like. Yesterday I almost told little Pamela a meat joke. If little Pamela's family found out, it would be hellish not to bring a vote of priests and paladins to block themselves. Although he wasn't too afraid of blockage, in line with the little discipline he had left in his heart, Hiko decided to tell Pamela another story, and after making up his mind, he immediately said to little Pamela.

"Of course, I never lied to you, did I? Okay, okay, let's not talk about that, let's start today's new story. Today, I'm going to tell you a story about the myths of my hometown. ”

"Yes, yes. I love listening to stories the most!"

As soon as she talked about listening to the story, little Pamela immediately forgot about the questions she had just had. She hugged her doll and sat down in front of Hiko obediently, looking distressingly well-behaved.

And looking at Pamela like this, Hiko cleared his throat and began to tell today's story.

"It is said that when the world was first opened up, everything was just a chaotic appearance. At this time, the world itself gave birth to a group of powerful creatures. These creatures are chaotic and crazy, and they don't do anything more than tirelessly destroy everything in front of them. And such a creation naturally makes the world itself feel dissatisfied. Then the origin of the world gathered power again, and out of it came a great giant, a god born with light. ”

"As soon as this giant god was born, he felt extremely disgusted and angry with those chaotic monsters in the world who only knew destruction, so he summoned lightning with his anger, and challenged all the monsters in the world with this incomparably majestic and righteous weapon, and this battle is tens of thousands of years ......"

"The giant god has finally triumphed over all the chaos and evil in the world. And by the time he had done all this, his majestic and tall body had already shed its last drop of blood and lost its last ounce of strength. Eventually, his body collapsed at the end of the world. ”

"The will of the world, which has finally been restored to order and peace, is saddened by the passing of this great giant god, so that the end of the world begins to drift with a never-ending wind and snow. Wind and snow covered his body, turning the body of the giant god into a majestic and majestic mountain. He stands there, forever guarding the world. If you stand on the top of a mountain, you can even hear him whispering like thunder and storms sometimes. And this giant god is the most admired father in my hometown. He has no name, so we call him the Father of the Firmament, the Guardian of the Ordered Heavens. ”

"Wow. Is there really such a tall god? And is this Father of the Sky really dead?"

Little Pamela sniffled, and in her eyes there were tears rolling slightly. This made him feel a little crying and laughing at once, you must know that when he heard his old man tell this story, he looked like my heart was completely undisturbed, and even a little disdainful. So much so that at that time, he immediately tasted domestic violence.

So seriously, he really didn't understand why someone could be moved to tears when they listened to such old-fashioned myths. Are you too simple, or am I too complicated? Hiko, who couldn't help but mumble in his heart, opened his mouth at this time and began to comfort little Pamela, whose eyes were red.

"Of course not, you know, it's a great god. Although the body of the Father of the Firmament, who held up the heavens for us, has fallen, his soul still guards the world he fought for and the people he protects. So don't be too upset, little Pamela, he's just started a different kind of protection in a different way. ”

"Really?"

Hearing Hiko's explanation, little Pamela immediately wiped her eyes with her mud-stained sleeve, and then smiled at Hiko. "That's great. I knew that all fathers in the world would not fall. They will fight until the end, protecting his children all the time. Really?"

"Yes, yes!" As soon as he heard this, Hiko couldn't help but feel distressed. He reached out to touch little Pamela's head, but as before, his hand passed through Pamela's body. This made him immediately stop his movements and turn to words. "Just like your father, he has been fighting hard to protect you and your relatives around you. So, little Pamela, be patient and wait, and when you are older, your father will come back to you. At that time, you can pull his beard and let him tell you the story of his heroic battle. That's a much better story than I told. ”

"Yes, that's wonderful!" little Pamela, whose eyes lit up suddenly, smiled like a bell, and on this little hill she jumped freely, as lovely and innocent as an elf. And looking at such a little girl, Hiko's heart sighed deeply, and a real sense of guilt pressed on his heart, making his whole person feel a heavy, dull and depressed feeling.

He really didn't want to lie to such a kid if he could. But how could he bear to tell this innocent little girl that cruel truth? she was so eager that her father would come back to her, and take her in his arms and tell her childish but sweet stories. This hope is so slim, how can Hiko be ruthless and kill him by force?

So he was so entangled and depressed that he had a feeling that he didn't know what to do with little Pamela. And just as his mind was turning and knotting, a distant call suddenly sounded from afar. Hearing this voice, Pamela, who was still like a little rabbit just now, immediately pricked up her ears, and then waved her hand at Hiko.

"Oh, Aunt Maraine is calling me home? See you tomorrow, Mr. Spectre. I'll listen to your story tomorrow!"

With that, the little girl rushed down the hill like a deer, and ran back to the town along the path between the ridges. And looking at Pamela, who just left, Hiko let out a long breath.

If he can escape for a while, at least for now, he doesn't have to tell Pamela that cruel story. He didn't have to tell Pamela that her father, Joseph, had died in battle, on the front lines of the fight against the undead scourge. He didn't have to tell her that the most terrible thing was that her father's soul had been manipulated by a powerful enemy, turned into an evil undead, and extended his claws to his former compatriots.

Pamela is still so small, so naïve, so well-behaved. He really didn't know what was going to happen when he told this lovely kid. So he could only hide this secret until he could no longer hide it. It's not pleasant, and it's even depressing. Especially for Hiko, who still has troubles.

Sitting on the hillside at sunset, watching the afterglow of the setting sun reflect the entire hillside into an orange yellow, I can't feel any of the warmth of the sun. Watching the evening breeze blowing the surrounding wheat fields, the golden waves moving forward one after another under the wind, but I couldn't feel any fresh air. Hiko's mood was even worse.

He really didn't understand what his predecessor wanted to do when he brought himself into this spiritual world. Is it just to appease little Pamela, the only child who can see him? Or let yourself witness the tragedy of her life and see how she grieves after knowing that her father has died.

What the hell is all this for, and what the hell does it have to do with that damn light? Hiko's thoughts on this for the past few days, and he couldn't think of a clue, and just when he felt like he was about to go crazy, he suddenly found out.

The world has changed!
