Chapter 001 Invitation to Admission in Kassel
The setting sun completely disappeared on the horizon, pulling out a dark blue shadow at the end of the sky. The breeze blew through the hairends of the girl sitting on the rooftop and the hem of the white gauze skirt, which made her figure too thin.
It should be a girl of about ten years old, with a pale face hidden in the shadow of a tall oak tree, ambiguous at the junction of light and darkness.
Butterflies that stay at their fingertips flapp their wings and take off, scribbling through the air before crashing into a transparent barrier. The electric light flickered, and as the sound of electricity crackled, the trembling golden-winged butterfly gradually became stiff and scorched, and finally turned into everything in heaven and earth with the wind.
The girl tilted her head, as if puzzled.
"She's so quiet." The man said.
"What's so bad about being quiet? It's much better than this group of people crying so much that it upsets me. The other man looked around at the crying children downstairs, his brow furrowed and his tone impatient.
"I looked at her blood test, and there was that person's blood on her body, but she didn't have a number yet, I don't know why." The man said faintly.
Compared to the people in front of him, he likes to get along with these children, so he needs to know more about these children.
"Didn't Zero lose it? From now on, she will be Zero. ”
The girl finally realized that she was the center of their conversation, glanced at them slightly, then withdrew her gaze and continued to stare into the distance.
It was just a faint glance, but it made the two men's hearts lifted.
The eyes were so special, when swept away, it was as if they were just an object with no vital signs at all.
"Damn it!" The man said, "She's not going to be stupid, is she?" ”
The tone was not good, as if he was irritated by the glance just now.
"What are you doing with her? That's just a kid. The mild-faced man looked puzzled.
"Hell boy, that man's blood is a monster! It's home to a bunch of monsters! The man didn't know what was in his mind, and roared angrily.
Unexpectedly, he knelt down with a "plop" in the next second, and the man was stunned, struggling to stand up, but found that his legs seemed to be pressed by a thousand pounds of steel bars, and he couldn't move at all.
"I don't like it." A fluttering word fell in the wind, like the corners of her white skirt that had been blown up.
"She has a spirit?! Why didn't you tell me! The man's eyes were split.
The people on the side seemed to have watched a good show, smiled more and more brightly, and shrugged: "You didn't ask." ”
The girl stood up and approached the man on his knees step by step, and he finally saw the girl's true face.
The whole person was almost transparent, and there was no expression on his well-carved face. It's like a queen who ascended the throne at a young age, full of majesty. She walked over to the man and stood on her tiptoes slightly.
She was so small that even when a man knelt, he was still half a head taller than her.
The man lost his voice for a moment, and let her use his forehead against his own.
This is a very intimate action, and from a distance, the two look like a father and daughter with a warm atmosphere.
It's a pity that the person who plays the role of a father can't help but tremble because of the girl's approach.
The girl closed her eyes and chanted softly, "Your sins are forgivable, but God is not ready to forgive you." ”
What the heck?!
He's an atheist, okay?!
The man roared inwardly.
The girl didn't give the man a chance to refute, she withdrew and turned to the side to take the other person's hand: "Uncle Sakurai, it's time for us to go back, right?" ”
"Yes." The man known as Sakurai answered.
"Then let's go back." The girl said.
"Okay." Sakurai nodded.
"Will Uncle Sakurai leave me?" The girl asked again, "Like ...... Just like a butterfly. ”
The corner of Sakurai's eyes twitched.
He saw with his own eyes that the butterfly was pushed onto the barbed wire by the little girl and turned into a cloud of dust. If you don't know about girls, you probably think it's a threat.
"You will leave," he said, "except that it is not your uncle who will leave you, but that you will leave your uncle, and you will go far away to become a better version of yourself, and your uncle will be waiting for you here." ”
"Will you wait?"
"Yes."
The figures of the two gradually drifted away until they disappeared on the rooftop. And the man kneeling on the ground was like a dehydrated fish, lying on the ground panting after being freed from his bondage.
"It's Zero, Zero...... Came back......"
……
"Validated, Qianli, date of birth 05/21/xxxx, female, number AD0707, class "B", included in the list of Kassel Academy. Database access is enabled, account is opened, and course selection tables are generated. I'm Norma, Secretary of the Kassel Academy, and I'm happy to serve you. Your ticket, passport, and visa will be delivered within three days, and you are welcome, Qianli. ”
"Wait, B-class?" Qianli was taken aback: "Are you sure there is no mistake?" ”
"Norma doesn't make a mistake in this kind of thing, and your bloodline level is determined by Headmaster Angers himself."
"I'm sorry, I was just too surprised, I thought it would be CDEF and the like, but it's not unconvincing...... If you have these classes. Qianli touched his nose.
"There is currently an F student in the academy, and if he can't graduate this year, his grade will be changed to G."
"Which God-man?" Although he is not yet a student of Kassel, Qianli can't help but applaud this senior brother.
"Fingal von Flins. I think it might be nice to meet him, he's a guy who makes people happy. ”
"Norma, you seem to like this very much~" Qianli licked her lips and smiled ill-intentionedly.
"Well, I'm looking forward to meeting you officially." Norma automatically ignored the topic and voluntarily cut off the communication.
Qianli pursed her lips, put down her phone, and slowly raised it with the admission letter of Kassel Academy between her middle finger and index finger in her right hand.
It was a chicly shaped tree, half leafy, half withered.
She closed one eye and looked closely at the gilded lines on the cover in the light of an incandescent lamp.
As time passed, she saw the half-decayed World Tree gradually enlarge and become three-dimensional before her eyes. The wind was blowing, and she could even hear the rustling of leaves.
The black dragon circled in the air, spitting fire from its mouth, and landed steadily on it, its bony wings the size of a mountain hanging to the ground.
Qian Li had never seen such a beautiful creature, each scale was given a different meaning by time, and the half-squinted golden pupils turned to look at her, forest and majestic, and the overwhelming momentum gushed out.
In the distance, there was a steady stream of footsteps, and bundles of torches gathered into a burning sea of fire, and they danced and sang ancient songs in their mouths. They climbed up the dragon's drooping bony wings to the dragon's heart, and without hesitation stabbed their swords into it.
The dragon let out a deafening roar, and he fanned his bony wings as he tried to escape the premeditated slaughter, but was restrained by massive chains.
The blood gathered into a river, stained the entire mountain range red, and then rose into the sky as the heat rose, turning into bright red clouds that stained half the sky.
The rain of blood was falling.
His eyes were scarlet, and he couldn't tell whether it was burning flames or blood, and the strong smell of rust penetrated his nose, and the fire and blood mixed together, like flowing magma.
"Why leave? I'm going to die. ”
Someone sighed softly in his ear.
Qian Li came back to his senses suddenly, threw the admission letter against the opposite wall with a shake of his hand, and looked around: "I'm blanching!" Who's talking! ”
"Your reaction is much more interesting than my brother's."
The boy's voice, which he couldn't tell whether it was mockery or excitement, reached his ears, and Qianli looked at the source of the sound - only to see the boy in a suit with extremely delicate facial features sitting in front of the bay window of her house, tilting his head and looking at her with a pair of golden pupils. The brown and black hair hung down softly to his ears, making him look unusually well-behaved.
He dangled his feet, and his white stockings disappeared as he moved.
Like a cat.
Qianli thought to herself.
"Who is your brother?"
"You'll find out soon enough." The boy smiled, not ready to answer the question, but said, "Good night, ma'am." Have a good dream. ”
The words fell, and the whole person slowly disappeared from her eyes.
