In the attic of the oldest bell tower in the academy, because it is so old, there are no magic crystal lamps, no candles or kerosene lamps, and it is a little dim at random. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The moon was so bright that it couldn't shine into the house, and even if it did, it wouldn't be able to see anything.

In the shadows, the old dragon knight withdrew his gaze, and the scarlet moon made him feel as if he had returned to that year, that day.

The wind of the summer night gave people an inexplicable coldness, and groups of stars in the sky stared at what was happening beneath their feet with wide eyes.

The young prince was tied to the cross by his own father's own hands, and the firewood was already piled up, even if the words in his mouth were righteous and righteous. Even if there are tears on his face, his serious face is full of guilt.

But in any case, it cannot be denied that he personally burned his own young son at the stake.

Even if it was to save the lives of all the people of this country, more than 100,000 people. Exchanging a lollipop for 100,000 candy cubes sounds like a very lucrative thing, but if you have a normal IQ, you can just change it.

Reality, if this lollipop is a super invincible limited edition that has cost you more than ten years, and it is still an artifact-level lollipop, will you still change it?

And, think about it. 100,000 sugar cubes, not to mention whether you can eat them all, even if you finish eating, do you still have teeth? Okay, even if you use dentures, then may I ask, do you dare to go on the scale?

The principle of equivalent exchange is actually that the same thing is placed at opposite ends of a scale, and the two things are equal to a concept, not mass or volume.

Moreover, the value of the objects on both sides of the scale is not evaluated according to the values of mortals, but according to the gods or the world.

Compared with 100,000 people, it seems that the latter should be more heavyweight, after all, a fraction of the weight of 100,000 people is larger than a person, but if this person is a very important person, the choice will be difficult.

One is your own son, and the other 100,000 are your subjects who trust in you, and they live in your country, because with them you are the king, and you have your own country.

You have taken it upon you to protect them, they have put you on the throne, and all your privileges are due to their presence. What choice would you make at this time?

The most important thing is that although you don't know it, you don't actually like this son of yours, no, maybe it can be described as hate.

In the year he was born, there was no grain harvest, but it was not because of drought or flood, but when the weather was good, most of the grain died.

The final result of opening the warehouse and releasing grain was still a large number of people starving to death, but in the neighboring country that was only a few hundred miles next door, it was an extremely rare harvest.

Countless refugees have left this country that is not prosperous, and this phenomenon of no harvest lasted for three years, and it only slowed down after the prince became an adult, but the main reason is that the people of this country have died and left, and only more than 100,000 people remain.

Otherwise, the crops in the fields, although they are growing well, will not be able to feed them, even if they do not produce food.

This subsided in the years that followed, and ten years later, when the crops in the fields began to grow normally, and when the prince was ten years old, the old king met the astrologer who had wandered here.

In fact, before and after the birth of the prince, many people had already said in the ears of the old king that the prince was not, and suspected that it was because of the sudden natural disaster because of the prince.

For this, the old king also executed many people who deceived the people.

After all, it was his own son.

But this matter still planted the seed in the old king's heart, and there was a mustard. After all, in this world, there are some things that cannot be disbelieved.

Later, the words of the astrologer who passed by reminded the old king of the tears he had uttered before he died.

The old national teacher may be the most loyal old man to this country, but at that time, the country could not afford to talk crazy and some outsiders to exert pressure, and in the end the old national teacher was executed.

But now I think of the scene at that time. The old king couldn't believe that he was really the one who ordered several nobles to be beheaded with a cold face?

When I think of what I once did, I didn't think there was anything wrong at the time, but now I think about it and think about it now, it's incredible, yes, it's incredible.

The feeling of how could I possibly do such a thing.

Perhaps it was reminded by the astrologer, or for other reasons, the old king remembered what he had done in the past, but he broke out in a cold sweat behind his back.

The saying that if you believe it, you don't believe it, you don't have it, some things are like that whether you believe it or not, and some things you don't believe that they don't exist, and if you believe them, they don't exist.

Just like all people in this world are good people, you believe it, it's not possible.

The old king recalled all the things that had happened in the country over the past ten years, and finally decided on his choice.

Since the birth of the prince, the country has been plagued by many disasters, and in the end, the old king made his own decision, he chose to believe the words of the astrologer, and he decided to sacrifice his son, hoping to calm the resentful soul.

So, he burned his son at the stake.

The stars innocently watched what was happening on the ground, and the young prince probably knew what was going to happen next, his face was expressionless, but there was still fear in his eyes.

He looked at his father, and at the angry roars of the onlookers.

The object of their wrath was not the king, who burned his own children at the stake, but the prince, who was tied to the cross and had a blank face.

Even if he's just a kid.

I don't know who blamed all the disasters of the country in the past ten years on the prince, and the young prince became the object of popular resentment.

The old king, in fact, was also forced to do so.

Ignorant people are the easiest to agitate.

When the stake was over, the people were content to go home and sleep. With tears in his eyes, the old king collected his son's ashes and buried the urn under his son's bed.

He didn't see the joy in his queen's eyes.

The prince died, and the people were happy, but it rained.

The next night, the monsters came.

They are monsters that live between dreams and reality, fed with fear and despair, they have swept the country and eaten it all away.

Well, it's not all eaten clean, after all, these monsters only eat souls, and are not interested in all material things, and human fears and fantasies are their favorite food.

The prince hid under the bed, he was dead, but he still looked at the world with his soul.

He saw his father die with a happy face, and it seemed that there was something in it that the prince did not know. The prince saw the queen die in despair, and his face was madly resentful, and he suddenly remembered that it was not his own mother, who had died on the day he was born.

This is his stepmother, a very nice person.

Perhaps.

The prince felt that his soul was gone, and when he woke up again, 100,000 years had passed, and everything had returned to dust......
