The fire in the room was lit, and the three of them sat quietly on the sofa, except for Ai Yue who had been peeking at the snacks on the table, Ai Lian and Naya were embarrassed, and they didn't know what to say.

Maybe this is usually the time when the girl is busy.,This suddenly idle.,It must make the girl very uncomfortable.。

Finally, after several minutes of silence, Eren spoke.

"Naya, would you like to hear my story?"

Eren didn't ask too much about Naya and her father, but slowly told her story.

Without waiting for Naya to answer, Eren spoke to herself.

"A long, long time ago, well, maybe not that long. Anyway, at that time, there was no distinction between the eastern and western continents in Gaia, and all the people lived peacefully on one continent.

At that time, human beings and some non-human beings coexisted peacefully, and everyone was happy, and every day was like a weekend.

My clan was also an ordinary family of that era. Of course, I wasn't born at that time, and I heard it all from my parents.

However, for some special reasons, my people began to disappear one after another. The number of our people became smaller and smaller, until in the end only my parents and I remained.

Just 10 years ago, my parents, like those people, disappeared.

However, when I was 10 years old, a postman brought me a pocket watch and a letter from my parents.

I did not open the letter, but returned it to the postman and asked him to send it to me twenty years later.

That way, I'll have twenty years to look for them.

Because, if I read that letter, I might never see them again. ”

Alan slowly told his story, and finally said, "Once this kind of thing is said, it will be a lot easier." So, if Miss Naya has something on her mind, you might as well say it, maybe we can help you. ”

"You all know?"

Naya asked, looking down.

Ai Lian nodded lightly, while Ai Yue looked at the two of them with a confused expression.

When Naya raised her head, her eyes were already red, and tears were rolling in her sockets, as if she was about to fall at any moment.

She sniffed softly, leaning forward weakly with her arms.

Suddenly, Naya's hand was only held by Elian, and she looked up at the man in front of her, his black eyes seemed to have magical power, which made Naya's heart gradually calm down.

Naya closed her eyes, trying to memorize the temperature coming from her palm.

Then, she said slowly, "It started a month ago.

My father was an ordinary patrol officer in the town, and his daily job was to patrol around the town every night to maintain order in the town.

But just a month ago, everything was different.

It was unusually cold outside that night, and the wind was blowing very fiercely. My father, as usual, wore a police uniform and went out with an oil lamp.

Then he never came back.

The next day, he was discovered by a couple of people who had gotten up early to work, and they said that when they found my father, he was lying quietly on the ground with a look of fear on his face.

An image of Death wielding a scythe appeared on his pale face, and the skin on his limbs was stained with the gray of death.

But the town's physician said he wasn't dead, he still had a heartbeat, he still had a body temperature, but he had no soul!

Then, one after another things happened in the town. From Uncle William to Uncle Frey, and then several patrolmen who went out on patrol. Gradually, the people of the town began to fear going out at night, thinking that if they wandered outside, the scythe of death would find them. ”

"Death's scythe?" said Eren repeatedly, then asked, "Can you let me see your father?"

Instead of answering, Naya stood up and walked upstairs in silence.

Eren picked up Ai Yue and followed Naya. In this case, Ai Yue, who is a holy weapon, can feel more things than Ai Lian.

Still in the familiar room, Naya gently pushed the door open.

Lifting the white cloth on the bed, Ai Lian was greeted by an uncle in his fifties.

This is a middle-aged man. He has a stubble on his face, probably because he hasn't cleaned it up for many days. There was a slight black tint on his fingertips, presumably smoked. The skin is pale, except for the limbs, which have a different gray color. In addition, what impressed Elian the most was his face.

The shriveled eye sockets were sunken, almost two hollows, staring deadly ahead. The mouth was wide open as if it had stopped abruptly in the middle of a shout, revealing a whole row of gums. It was desperate, like seeing the devil's face.

If it weren't for the faint heartbeat of the man in front of him and the owner, Eren would almost have thought it was a corpse.

Ai Yue shook her head lightly and said, "This is not the appearance of being taken away from his soul, his soul is still in his body, but... It is true that something has been stolen. ”

Naya looked at her in surprise and said excitedly, "What is that? Can you get it back? Or replace mine with him?"

"Unfortunately, I don't know what it is. Ai Yue shook her head and said.

Not... While the two women were talking, Eren kept staring at the man on the bed, especially the image of death waving a sickle on his forehead.

He always felt like he had seen this picture somewhere, but he couldn't remember it no matter how much he thought about it.

"Ahhh

"What's wrong with him,,, him?" Seeing Ai Lian like this, Naya looked a little scared, she quickly grabbed Ai Yue on the side, and stumbled and asked.

Ai Yue crossed her hands around her neck and said calmly, "Ah, it's okay." It was Eren searching for his memories, just leave him alone. Compared to this, those honey cakes will spoil if you don't eat them. ”

"Uh... Kindness. Seeing that Ai Lian didn't mean to wake up, Naya didn't want to ask anything, after all, this was someone else's private matter, since Ai Yue said it was okay, it should be no problem.

Squeak –

The door was gently shut, and Ai Yue pulled Naya downstairs to eat the cake that Ai Lian brought back with an expectant look, leaving only Ai Lian and the white cloth uncle in the whole room.

If anyone were here, they would definitely think that this room was empty.

Both Elian and Uncle, both their heartbeats and breathing, disappeared the moment the door closed.

The pattern of the Grim Reaper's scythe gradually disappeared on the uncle's face, and then slowly appeared on Elian's face.

Puff - Puff -

Like a flame burning on his body, Eren's face made a "sizzle" sound.

Then Allen woke up.

He touched his face, and there was nothing on it. Everything just now disappeared without a trace like a phantom.

Alan muttered:

"It's a dream. ”

Only the white cloth, slowly falling down, covered the man again.

The Scythe of Death is gone.

Ailian, who was stroking his cheek with one hand, said in a deep voice:

"Too much and too little stuff that can be annoying... It can't be love, right?"

With a sneering joke to herself, Elian quietly left the room.
