After loving the little blue bird Ayu, who had been lonely for too long, Ulysses walked to the center of the tree.

"Open, brilliance. Uttering the agreed code, Ulysses opened the door to the Garden of the World Tree.

A passage of light appeared in front of him, and it was the right path to the secret realm. If it is invaded from under the roots of the tree, those demon gods sleeping in the prison are not decorations, they are terrifying monsters that can kill the ninth level in seconds, it is himself, and he was also chopped vegetables when he met these big guys before he fused with Ishtar.

Of course, the words are different now, and the place he is going to now is not a prison, but a "city", the residence of the maidens he has created.

Stepping on the glorious staircase, Ulysses first arrived at the lounge, the place where he rested and pondered before entering the city for work, a study with a large collection of ancient books.

The sofa that had been there for a long time, the shelves full of books, the models used to calculate and the planetarium that measured the starry sky were still in their places, and even the number of pages in the book "How to Make the Cat in the Box Come to Life" had not changed.

Time has stood still here, like the castle of the Ana family,

I still remember here, Lily of the little devil asked him curiously about the cat's life and death.

"Dad, what happened to the cat in this book?"

"Even if it is a god, there is no way to reverse the wheel of life, and a life that has died once cannot return to this world so easily, so the cat is indeed dead. ”

"So, can the cat die alone?"

"No, if you can understand the relationship between language and cognition, behavior and phenomena, mind and body, there is a chance to work miracles. ”

"As long as you keep remembering and thinking about it, the life that existed will not disappear so simply. Even if the soul has been reduced to pieces and the body no longer exists, as long as there are people who remember it, then it is not true death. ”

"The one who is forgotten by everyone is the real death. The cat can't come back only because no one cares about the cat, and when it dies, it's forgotten by everyone. ”

"The forgotten cat is the real dead. ”

Ulysses picked up the cup on the table, and there was still a trace of the temperature of black tea in the cup, which was the trace of his recent visit.

"Now, it's time for the cats to come back to life. Wiping the cup clean, Ulysses took out his book of souls and gently knocked on the door to the secret realm.

The door of the seven-colored light opened before him, and from inside came the ballad of the maiden.

"I can't say the words that are like an incantation engraved on them, and the whispering voice is more gentle than death, and if you have enlightenment, come and snatch it. ”

"I need wings to fly in the dark more than a bed covered with a million roses, and even if I'm still in a cocoon, I'll still reach out and yearn for your smile. ”

It was the song of the first puppet of Lonely High, the song of the black angel flying freely in the darkness.

In the dim ruins, an angel with black wings sat on an ancient clock tower, two huge wings embracing the night sky, and countless black feathers fell, covering the entire sky.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, only the last of the seven stars in the City of Dolls is still shining, and the star is incomparably bright and mysterious.

It was the light of the soul that belonged to the sword of mercury, the radiance she had gained after defeating all her sisters.

Mercury, gold, emerald green, pale blue, crimson, young berry, snow bloom, the stars representing the seven rose maidens finally decided the final victory in this era, and under the ancient clock tower, the sword of mercury, which has the most powerful medium, has become the final victor.

So, in this desolate and incredible world, only the song of the last black angel echoes.

However, the song was full of confusion.

Because, having obtained all the life and soul power of the Rose Maiden, she did not become "Alice" as she wished, but stagnated in the city of dolls and could not go out again.

Why? Hasn't she already defeated all her sisters and become the most perfect Rose Maiden?

She should already be "Alice".

So, why? She was not happy at all, only endless emptiness and loneliness.

"Click!" in the lonely city of dolls, footsteps sounded.

"Who!" the Mercury Sword raised its head, the black wings behind it raised high, and countless starlight fell from the sky and shone on her.

After devouring the power of the other six Rose Maidens, the power of the Mercury Sword had reached a level she could not have imagined.

Gathering all the abilities of the Rose Maiden, she is already truly invincible in this city of dolls.

Except, now she is facing this person.

When he stepped into the first step of this puppet city, he was robbed of the power by the mercury sword and fell into a state of eternal sleep, emerald green, pale blue, crimson, young berry, Xuehua's body trembled slightly, and the second hand on the bell tower that had been rusting for countless years suddenly moved a small square.

When he took the second step, the moon in the sky was no longer cold, and the fountain that had dried up for countless eras gushed out transparent water, and a breeze began to blow on the vast land.

When he took the third step, all the sleeping Rose Maidens opened their eyes together, and the injuries they had suffered in Alice's game were healed little by little, and their dull eyes began to regain their brilliance.

When he took the fourth step, the light of the starry sky shone together, and the stars who had lost their colors once again sent their power to their respective puppet girls.

The first doll, the cold and haughty sword of mercury, the lonely black angel.

The second puppet, the joyful and active Jin Cai Ming, plays a dissonant violin girl.

The third puppet, the mischievous green star, the smart and happy plant cultivator.

The fourth puppet, the careful and serious blue star, the persistent gardener.

The fifth puppet is the noble and proud true red flower, and the gorgeous rose queen.

The sixth puppet, the innocent young berry heart, a child who doesn't know the world.

The seventh puppet, the crystal of the snow blossom of the shadow of dreams, the unfinished girl.

Noble and elegant crimson, calm and calm blue, lively and mischievous emerald green...... Each of them holds different colors and souls, and is the most important treasure in this world.

In the distant past, he created them one by one, and watched them grow little by little in the millennium, when this puppet city was not deserted, it was a small world full of flowers, fountains that never dried up, and stars were brilliant.

The girl who always loves to fly in the sky and wield a silver sword has the name of the sword of mercury, and the girl who loves to play in front of everyone and play the violin in her hand has received the name of the song of the golden color.

Standing in the garden, carefully cutting off the excess branches and leaves of the plants in the garden with scissors, the left eye is as crimson as the sunset, and the right eye is like a jasper dark green girl, which is a blue star.

In the garden, the kettle is happily watering all kinds of plants, and the color of the eyes is completely opposite to the other, the left eye is emerald green, the right eye is ruby red, the girl is the twin sister of the emerald star, the blue star.

Sitting in the rose bush, leisurely drinking black tea, with blue double trees, blond hair and double ponytails that reach the ground, and a proud girl wearing a bright red dress, she is the queen of roses, and she is really red.

Cute as a doll, surrounded by countless puppets, an innocent girl is a little young berry heart.

Sleeping in a dream, her whole body is snow-white, and she is surrounded by countless crystals, the cold and tough girl is the crystal of snowy bloom that has not been completed.

This is the legacy of a distant ancient era, the world after the creator's soul power dried up and declined, and the place where the Rose Maidens were born.

Ulysses, who is back here, can finally fully understand the language of the world this time.

The world created by his soul power, the world of the Rose Maiden, breathed and pulsed with him.

Where the wind blows, everything is coming back to life little by little.

However, this was not fast enough, and Ulysses opened his heart and unleashed the power of the immortal bird Phoenix.

That is the power of the transformation of all things, that is the power of creating life, that is the breath of life that nourishes all things and gives birth to all things.

With the help of Ulysses, the entire puppet city began to bloom countless beautiful flowers, and the last bit of vitality hidden under the earth happily released the seeds of its own preservation, so that the declining world was once again filled with the light of life.

"Welcome back. "The Voice of the Old World sent a greeting to its master.

"I'm back. "This time, Ulysses will not be confused anymore, because he knows what this place is, what every grass and tree and brick and tile looks like.

The will of the world embraced Ulysses little by little, and then drew out the soul power obtained from him, giving this desolate world a new lease of life.

The whole land, the whole world, has awakened from the long dark winter, and this fantasy land that exists in the cracks of the dimension has been completely resurrected.

However, the princesses here have not fully recovered, because in the war not long ago, they were so injured that they could not move even if they regained their consciousness and body.

Ulysses hesitated slightly, then first picked up the most seriously injured seventh doll, the Snow Crystal, and began to administer first aid.

The specific method is to gently kiss her cherry lips and channel your soul and life force into her body through the kiss.

"Uh-huh......" A hint of shyness flashed on Snowbloom's snow-white face, and then she happily accepted the kiss from Ulysses.

Then came the little young berry, the proud true red, the excited blue, the angry emerald green, the stunned gold, and the mercury sword that took up the sword and rested it on Ulysses' neck.

"What's going on!Father!" Mercury Sword said word by word, gritting her teeth as she looked at the puppeteer who had returned to the City of Dolls, and was also her medium—Ulysses.

She was answered with a gentle hug, and then the lips of the Mercury Sword were gagged, and no objections could be spoken...... (To be continued.) )
