In the center of the Dark Forest, there is a huge apple tree.

It was large and moody, with branches like nimble palms and golden apples hanging from them.

"Hey...... Old monster, come and get me! ”

At this point, Molly stood out of reach of its branches, shouting loudly to attract attention.

Immediately after, a dexterous figure sneaked up on the stump, scratching lightly at a huge scar.

Creak! Creak!

The tree laughed like an old man's, and all its branches stood still.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ed rushed over, broke off a piece of the treetop where the golden apple was hanging, and shouted, "Lodi...... Come on! ”

Lodi immediately pulled out his legs and ran.

The trio ran a long way before they stopped.

"Very good...... You've got the Golden Apple! ”

At this time, the white owl incarnated by Sulu flew down in front of them.

"Yes, but please tell me how to catch the little fairy......" Ed said worriedly.

"I need the branches of the golden apple tree...... Sulu made his own request.

"Yes!"

Lodi plucked the golden apple and handed the branch to the owl's talons.

"The fairy in the lake can pass through many nets, but she can't pass through the nets made of the girl's hair......"

The white owl spreads its wings and flies high into the air, leaving a lingering phrase in its wake.

"A net pocket made of girl's hair...... "Molly" Molly looked at her long hair: "My ...... It should work. ”

"Yes, but we'll close the deal first, in fairy tales, honest children don't lose."

Lodi thought for a moment and led the other two to the small lake: "Fairy in the lake, we have already got the golden apple......"

The lake rippled, and the old fairy flew out, surprised, "You can really complete this task?" Give it to me, and I will tell you how to go to the kingdom of heaven......"

"Okay."

Lodi looked at Molly, who had a short haircut, and handed the golden apple in his hand.

The fairy lay on the golden apple, and as soon as she sucked it, the flesh quickly disappeared, and in an instant, the wrinkles on her face decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in an instant she changed from an ugly old woman to a middle-aged appearance.

"My youth...... After all, I still can't come back. ”

The middle-aged fairy looked at herself in the lake and said abruptly.

"Now, tell us how to go to the kingdom of heaven." Lodi sped away.

"Haha...... Stupid little ones, I deceived you! Ever since the last time the farmer's son came, I had sworn that I would never trust a human again. ”

The middle-aged fairy replied maliciously that she was going back to the lake.

At this time, Ed, who was waiting next to him, immediately threw out the net woven by Molly's hair.

The fairy in the lake had a flash of light, but she was stopped by her black hair and couldn't wear it.

"Abominable human ......"

She growled, "How do you know how to imprison me? ”

"Now, tell us the way to the kingdom of heaven, and we'll let you go." Lodi took a deep breath and understood that fairy tales were all lies.

After a few tug-of-wars, the middle-aged fairy finally gave in: "I don't have magic peas in my hands anymore, but there is another way, you can go directly to the kingdom of heaven, you can pick the thorns on the side of the road, weave them into a windbreaker, and after wearing them, you can turn into swans and fly to the kingdom of heaven!" But...... Those who pick and weave thorns will suffer so much that they will never be able to fly into the sky! ”

The trio looked at each other, and finally Molly stepped forward.

Ignoring the pain of the thorns piercing her fingers, the brave girl knitted two trench coats out of them and said to Lodi and Ed: "I will be on the ground, waiting for your good news." ”

Lodi and Ed donned the thorn cloaks and instantly turned into two swans and flew high into the sky.

They skimmed over the hills, through the clouds, and saw a continent suspended in the air.

That's the 'Kingdom of Heaven'!

After falling into a dense forest, Lodi and Ed took off their coats and changed back to their old ways.

They saw a castle.

It was a fairytale fortress built on a spread out book.

The farmer's son, the lucky one at the beginning, took over the place after forcing the princess to death and became the new king.

Just as Lodi and Ed were struggling to infiltrate the castle, they heard a crying voice.

It was the ghost of a toad by a stinking ditch.

"Woo ......"

"Woo ......"

"The poor princess was deceived by men, and the king was killed...... The vile and sinful man wore the crown...... Woohoo......"

……

"It's a toad!"

Lodi thought of the fairy tale, and couldn't help but feel a chill: "Is the story told by the foreigner Mr. true?" ”

"Who?"

His self-talk was immediately heard by the revenant soul of the toad.

It turned its head, its bulb-sized eyes staring at Lodi and Eddard viciously: "Two more outsiders......"

"Mama...... We're here to help you. Lodi said boldly.

"Hmm...... You're just children, you haven't become disgusting adults, and I want to believe you......" said Mama Toad, "I'll teach you how to sneak into the castle through the sewers, and you'll help me break a mirror, and it's in the princess's room!" ”

"Okay." Lodi and Ed looked at each other and happily agreed.

Following the toad's instructions, they sneaked into the castle, evaded the guards, and arrived at the princess's room.

In the dusty room, there was only a huge life-size mirror.

In the mirror, there is also a young and beautiful princess, who is wearing a long white dress, and her golden hair falls down like a cascade to her ankles.

"Are you a princess? We're here to save you. ”

Lodi said softly.

"No...... I'm trapped here by the curse of the Raven Witch, and no one can break the mirror unless she ...... herself" The princess in the mirror shook her head and looked at Lodi and Ed again and again.

Smack!

The sound of banging immediately attracted the guards.

At this time, the princess quickly said: "If you want to save me, there is only one way, and that is to exchange one of you for me!" ”

Stompe! Stompe!

Outside, the footsteps of the guards were getting closer.

At this time, Ed bravely stood up: "Lodi, my friend, please make sure you find the Seven Colored Flowers and save our village." ”

He rushed into the mirror and replaced the princess inside, while he was forever locked in the mirror world.

"Ahh

Lodi let out a scream as she looked at the princess who appeared.

In his field of vision, the originally beautiful princess's body was rapidly swollen and became extremely ugly, with no eyebrows, and her head was also bare, with only a few scattered hairs.

"The real princess is long dead, I'm just a vengeful spirit!"

She smirked and looked at the rushing guards, "Now, I'm going to get revenge!" ”
