On this star-studded night, after dinner, the people of Del Mar sit on the side of the street, chatting and munching on homemade snacks and enjoying the cool evening breeze.

"Uncle Redman, it's been a long time since I saw you," Richard shouted from afar, carrying a stool in his hand, to a middle-aged man sitting under a large tree, "What stories did you bring back to us this time?"

"Richard, come here, Uncle Redman is back, of course there are endless stories to hear" A young man beside the middle-aged man stood up and beckoned to Richard.

"William, Jace, you two boys have noses better than dogs, I said I came to call you, I didn't expect you to arrive early," Richard walked over to Redman and lowered his stool, then looked at the two young men and laughed.

"What story do you want to hear today?"

Redman smiled helplessly and asked. After leaving the imperial capital, he only returned to the town this afternoon. After a long journey, he was tired and wanted to rest well this night, but this group of young people pestered him again. Looking at these young people with eyes full of expectation, Redman really couldn't bear to refuse, because he saw in them the shadow of his youth: his heart was full of dreams, and he always wanted to do something in the vast world outside. Because of this, when he came back from outside, he brought back all kinds of anecdotes about the outside world, which always fascinated them. There are even some young people who, after listening to his stories, leave the town with their bags on their backs and go out into the world.

"Uncle, we all like to listen to it, let's have a few of them," Richa laughed.

"The Fire Cloud Hero is coming to Assman. Tell me a little bit about him," William said, giving him a blank look.

"I also want to hear about him, I heard that our country was defeated by him, and I hope to defeat him one day," Jace said with an innocent childishness.

"Ambitious, hehe" Redman touched Jace's head, took a sip of the juice beside him, and then opened his mouth unhurriedly: "But the Fire Cloud Empire has made a peace agreement with our Asman, and we will be friends in the future." I won't tell the story of Count Liuyun today. I'll talk about something else. ”

Redman sold a pass, which immediately made several young people anxious.

"So what's that going on? We want to hear the stories of heroes."

"yes, even if I can't fight him, I hope I can be like him one day"

"Today. I'll tell you a story about our great queen," said Redman unhurriedly, "and I heard the story from a group of Sith soldiers I met on the road. You know, but our queen saved their lives from the monsters."

"Sith soldiers, how could the queen save them?"

"What monster did they encounter? Is it a monster?"

Everyone asked.

"Kids. Don't be in a hurry, I'll tell you slowly. Redman chuckled and began to speak.

"Not so long ago, a civil war broke out on the territory of our neighboring kingdom of Sith. In this war. The Sith, a powerful official, overthrew the rule of the old emperor and became emperor himself. But. Soldiers who are loyal to the country. And did not recognize this new emperor. Called him a traitor and organized an army to attack the new emperor. Among them. One of the generals in the south of the West was the most powerful, and the troops in other places fought quite well. However, soon this resistance force was suppressed by the new emperor. The reason is that this emperor's men have an army composed entirely of terrible monsters......"

Redman carefully recalled what the soldiers had told him, and quickly finished the story. The monster that he processed with his imagination immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Well, this story is exciting enough, right?" Looking at the young man who was still immersed in the shock and fear brought by those monsters, Redman asked triumphantly.

"Holy, what are those things? Could it be a demon from hell?" Richard shook his head vigorously, as if trying to toss the horror scene told by Uncle Redman out of his head.

"Uncle, what you say is true?" William asked suspiciously. Although Uncle Redman rarely makes up stories to deceive people, he still doesn't believe it.

"Of course, this was all told to me by the Sith soldiers I met on my way to La Mer," Redman nodded flatly.

In the Sith, Her Majesty the Queen was able to send people to the most critical moment, which is really amazing" William said excitedly, "But, Uncle Redman, we are very close to the Sith, will those monsters cross the border to attack us?"

"No, there are a large number of soldiers stationed on our borders, how can they come so easily, even if they do, our country will have heroes like fire clouds to destroy them," Redman replied casually.

As soon as he said that, he sensed that something was wrong. If ordinary soldiers could withstand these monsters, how could the Sith army flee into the Asman Empire in search of protection?

"It seems that I should go back to the imperial capital to do my little business, this place is too close to the Sith, and I always feel a little frightened," Redman said to himself.

"If there's a monster, I'll rush up and slash and I'll be a hero too, hehe" Jace danced excitedly, a boy with a young heart, and he didn't know how to be afraid.

"Silly boy, Uncle said it would be over if it touches it, and you rushed up to cut it," Richa laughed, smacking Jace on the head.

"Alright, that's all for tonight, let's go and rest early," Redman suddenly lost his mind to tell the story, stood up and said in a dull manner.

"Then go on tomorrow, and rest early today," said Richa, William, and Jace, who rose to take their leave.

"Uncle Redman, be careful when you wake up at night, don't run into monsters" After taking a few steps, Jace suddenly turned around and grimaced at him, grinning.

Outside the town of Delmar, the Seine River flows quietly, and it seems that it is also immersed in sweet dreams. The moonlight casts on the surface of the river, sprinkling patches of silver light, and occasionally the wind blows across the river, and it suddenly sparkles.

For hundreds of years, the gentle and tranquil Seine River has fed the land along the river with its own milk in the dry season, and even in the rainy season, it does not bring disaster to people, so it is affectionately called the mother river.

"I used to lie by this river, I always felt relaxed and comfortable, why is it cool on my back today?"

Lying on the grass by the river, looking at the twinkling stars in the sky, Richa felt filial piety in his heart.

"Like you, I'm probably made fussed by Uncle Redman's story. William replied casually, and then shouted to Jace, who was playing by the river, "Jace, don't go to the middle of the river"

Jace crouched by the river, and there was no reaction to the words, he was already completely attracted by the few fish in the river.

These fish, who are usually extremely afraid of people, did not panic at Jace's arrival, but just chased and bit frantically, and sprang out of the river from time to time. Looking at the fat fish, Jace had a smile on his face.

"You two come and help me catch these fish, they're about to jump ashore."

"What kind of fish to catch at night," Richa muttered, and got up with William and walked towards the river.

The two of them were also surprised by the abnormality of the fish in the river. However, it is clear that they do not want to miss such a good opportunity to catch fish, because the fish produced in the Seine River are extremely delicious.

Soon, the three young men who were catching fish in the river suddenly shuddered and fell softly, and the river soon submerged their figures.

Two or three hours later, three expressionless young men stood up in the river, dripping with water, and staggering towards the town, like drunken people.

Looking at their backs, a few strange red lights flashed in the grass on the other side of the river.

When Redman returned home, he couldn't sleep, so he finally pushed the door open and walked out.

"Jace, this muddy boy, I don't even feel comfortable peeing," Redman scolded as he tied his pants after making his way through the woods.

As soon as he turned around, Jace appeared in front of him.

"Scared the hell out of me, Jace, you don't sleep, what are you messing around" Redman was startled by him and asked angrily.

Jace didn't speak, and ten fingers went straight into Redman's neck.

"Ahh

A scream shattered the silence of the town of Delmar.

Outside the town, the Seine River was no longer quiet, and the whimper of the river beheld a mother crying in agony—for on this night, the demon had pushed her children by her hand into hell...
