Chapter 148: The Child Left Behind (Part II)

"Uncle, play with me. The girl, who had finally found a target, grabbed Ulysses' clothes with surprising strength.

It seems that if you don't play with her, then she will actually start tearing clothes. This kid doesn't seem to know what politeness is.

"Whoever does not play with me will swallow a thousand needles, whoever does not play with me will be buried in a sand pit, and whoever does not play with me will hide in a cave for the rest of his life. Seeing that Ulysses didn't seem to want to move, the girl angrily launched a series of curses, and it seemed that if he didn't comply, she would come to the real thing.

"Uh......" To be honest, Ulysses is really the most troublesome for this type of female surname. This kind of surname that doesn't care about others and does whatever you want, if you add it with incomparably powerful power, is the best seedling of the demon king.

"Come on, come on, play with me. The girl took Ulysses' hand, and it seemed that she would not stop until she had achieved her goal.

"Okay, but don't call me uncle. Ulysses had a hunch that if she didn't answer, she would be dragged into the gloomy woods.

"So what's it called, Daddy, Mommy, Sister?" the girl looked at Ulysses with innocent eyes, giving a worse choice.

"Nothing else?" Ulysses looked helplessly at the uninformed girl.

"That's all I know. The girl shook her head.

"Whatever you want. Ulysses sighed, don't waste your time on this.

"Then uncle, let's play hide and seek, I'll hide, you come to me. You don't turn back until you count to a hundred!" the girl let go of Ulysses' hand, and after a few cheerful turns, hid in the graveyard.

"One, two, three, four...... Fifty...... Hundred. After a casual count of a hundred, Ulysses turned his head and saw a little white creature directly from the side of the view.

It's too simple, Ulysses looks at the girl who thinks she's carefully hiding behind a cross. There are only five or six crosses in this whole cemetery, and because it is a public cemetery, the crosses are about the same size, and you can almost see them at a glance.

What's more, the girl herself has the characteristics of a luminous body, even if she hides her body very carefully, the blue and white soft light emitted betrays her. In the case of an ancient game of hide and seek, this is simply a fatal flaw.

"Found it. In the light of basic courtesy, Ulysses waited a minute before he walked over to the cross, which was not very far away, and grabbed the girl who was sneaking around.

The girl's body was light, as if it were weightless, and the white linen clothes were wrapped in a tiny body that had not yet grown, as if it would break with a little force.

"Uh......h I was found so soon, I am not reconciled!" the girl struggled for a moment and surrendered obediently.

"Then, I'll look for you next, you hide!" Although the failure was super complete, it didn't seem to affect the girl's happiness, and she looked very happy playing a game of hide and seek.

"Got it. Ulysses looked around, then fixed his gaze on a tall plane tree. Around here, it's the tallest plane tree. Even though the leaves are gone, it's still a good choice.

"One, two...... Uncle hid it, didn't ......" The girl blindfolded her eyes and counted excitedly.

"Three, four...... Uncle must hide it...... Five, six......"

"Seventeen...... I will definitely find your ......."

"One hundred! I'm coming!" Unlike Ulysses' perfunctory counting, the girl counted carefully to a hundred before letting go of her blindfolded hands, and then began to look around.

Unlike Ulysses, who was found casually, the girl was very serious about finding her surroundings, using the most orthodox and careful methods to find any possible hiding place.

It's a bit of a surprise, and if it's that way, it's only a matter of time before it's found. Ulysses, who had jumped to the top of the tallest sycamore tree, yawned as he looked at the girl who was looking for him carefully.

He's really a little tired, and the cost of getting here is even greater than he thought. If it weren't for the power of the decomposition of those dead fragments, he probably wouldn't have been able to enter at this stage.

This is a closed world, the inside of the body of the sky dragon Osiris, a world protected by a powerful force, not a dream or a fantasy, but a real world.

Space magic is one of the highest mysteries that humans cannot comprehend, but it is much simpler for dragons. Dragons who have basically reached level eight or above can use their own bodies as a model to create a small reading space in their bodies. The size of the space depends on the strength of the creator, and in this space, everything can remain the same.

With the power of the Sky Dragon Osiris, creating such a space in the body is not something that cannot be done.

The question is, why is this space the way it is? Generally speaking, the space created by the dragon super strong in their own body is used as a treasure trove. In this way, no matter where they go, they can take out their treasures to make beds to sleep anytime and anywhere, which is basically the biggest purpose of their deliberate creation of internal space.

And this space is obviously different, it seems to reflect the last memories of the sky dragon Osiris, presumably the place where it was buried after its death was behind the small church. That huge sky monument should be a tombstone that the dragons helped it build later.

The outside world has long since changed, and time has stood still here as far away as in the past.

However, there are people in this world that are supposed to have entered eternal rest, and it is strange to think about it. What exactly did the Sky Dragon Osiris do in the end, and was this the result it hoped for?

Ulysses unwittingly fell into the analysis of the world, and when he woke up from this huge and difficult puzzle, he heard a very sad voice.

............ "Uncle, where are you?"

"Uncle, if you don't play with me, you will swallow a thousand needles. ”

"Uncle, come out!"

"I don't want to be alone, come and play with me!"

Under the tall plane tree, the girl with two feet was crying and shouting loudly, and she was looking for all the shadows little by little, step by step, and she turned over and over again behind the grass that even the smallest baby could not hide.

Large crystal tears kept falling from her big eyes and dripping onto her snow-white clothes and feet, staining the otherwise very clean clothes with many, many tears.

"Where, why can't you find it, uncle, come out!" the girl wiped her tears as she searched more carefully and more seriously for any place on the ground where people could hide.

She must have been able to find it, because in order to play the game, she had practiced it alone countless times, writing down all the places on the ground where people could hide. Everywhere she went, she hid by herself, waiting for someone else who wouldn't come to find her.

She didn't come, she actually knew, because no one had ever been here, no one had ever come. To this day, until she didn't know how many times she practiced hide and seek in the woods, she saw a person, an older uncle who didn't know where she came from.

She's happy, really, really happy. She finally doesn't have to be alone, and she can finally have someone to play hide and seek with her. She must be able to do great, great, and she must be able to play very happily.

However, before she knew it, she was the only one left. The uncle from outside didn't know where she had disappeared, and she was alone again.

It's so lonely, so lonely, so lonely that I want to cry out loud. If you have been alone, you may not be so sad. But I finally met other people, met someone who played hide and seek with me, and met someone who caught me, and became a person again.

"Woo woo woo!" couldn't help it, and more tears flowed from her eyes.

It's so sad, so sad, so lonely, she's lonely again, and she has to stay here alone for I don't know how much time, how many nights. When will the next time someone come, 10,000 times when the moon will rise, or 100,000, a million times?

It's not that I'm expecting anything, but I just feel like there's something empty in my heart, as if I've lost something very important, something I've always wanted to get.

"Again...... It's a man again...... "What has been lost will not come back, the girl knows this better than anyone else, a long, long time ago....... Because she is a child who was left behind, a child who does not grow up.

Big tears kept falling, and the girl continued to sing, singing her own songs, echoing in this lonely world for an unknown number of years.

"Play with me. ”

"Play with me and take me to the end of this world. Play with me and take me to see the stars in the sky, play with me and I'll help you take out all the enemies. ”

"Whoever does not play with me will swallow a thousand needles, whoever does not play with me will be buried in a sand pit, and whoever does not play with me will hide in a cave for the rest of his life. ”

"So, come and play with me, come and jump rope with me, hide and seek together, dance together. ”

"This ...... Is hide and seek over?" Ulysses, who had just recovered from high-speed thinking and had not yet figured out what was going on, looked at the girl singing under the tree, wondering if he had missed something.
