Chapter 1 Prologue

Legend has it that in ancient times, gods and other creatures lived together in the earthly world. At that time, there was no death in the world, let alone the so-called god of death, and the world was full of life. You can go anywhere, so, in accordance with nature, the god of death was born, and at the same time, there was also the underworld.At this time, the gods also moved to the realm of the gods under the command of the creator of the world, and no longer directly interfere with the affairs of the upper world.After that, the God of Creation fell into a deep sleep.

——Excerpt from "History of the World"

It's a beautiful world.

The blue sky, white floating clouds, bright sunshine, lush forests, and magnificent city make up this beautiful and magical world named Andinia.

There is a village outside the city of Belem in the Eastern Continent.The village is small, but it is very lively, because the New Year is coming soon.After preparing for the day, at night, everyone gathered together, lit a bonfire in the open space in the center of the village, sang and danced, celebrated the end of the year and the beginning of the new year, and thanked the gods for the blessings of the year. Good harvest, thank them for giving joy, thank them for giving life.

"Annie, I, I..." Under the instigation of all his partners, a young man walked up to a beautiful girl with a blushing face. He glanced out of the corner of his eyes at the friends who kept cheering him on. , squeezed his fists, closed his eyes, and shouted out, "I like you! Annie! Marry me!"

"Oh—!" Suddenly there was a commotion, and everyone looked here.

"Oh, not bad, Carter~"

"That's right, Annie~ promise now~"

"Quickly agree~quickly promise~"

Carter's partners even rushed out and pushed him directly on Annie.

"Ah!" Carter blushed and hugged Annie tightly, "Annie, marry me... I, I will treat you well for the rest of my life!"

Annie's face was also blushing, she glanced to one side, and replied in a low voice: "I, I promise... Oh, I'm so ashamed!" Pushing Carter away, Annie ran away.

"Ah, Anne!" Carter hurriedly chased after her, no longer caring about being shy.After a successful proposal, how could the bride-to-be be allowed to run away?

"Oh~~~~~~~~~~" Everyone looked at the two people who ran away, and booed again.

This is how the cold winter warms up.

"Annie!" Carter finally caught up with Annie when he was approaching the lake.Although Annie is a girl, she runs fast.

Carter looked at Annie and said seriously: "Annie, you have promised to marry me just now, you can't go back on your word..."

Annie pouted and stomped her feet, and said angrily: "Who said I repented, I didn't repent! I just, just..."

"Great!" Before Annie could finish speaking, Carter hugged her, "Annie, Annie~"

Anne was surprised for a moment, then quietly snuggled into Carter's arms, showing a happy smile. "Really, stop barking like a child."

Carter smiled shyly, and said happily, "Well, as long as Annie is willing to marry me, I will do anything. I will protect and love you for the rest of my life."

"It's not just talk."

"I'll keep trying! Huh? What's that?"

"What's wrong?" Annie asked, looking up.

"Over there." Carter stretched out his hand and pointed to a direction in the sky, "Look, it seems to be... a shooting star?"

"Ah~" Annie exclaimed, clasped her hands together, and looked at the brighter and brighter star with a tail, "Hurry up and make a wish~ No, why does it seem to be getting bigger and bigger?"

"It doesn't seem like it's really getting bigger and bigger!" Carter yelled, pulling Annie to run, "Run, that thing must have been thrown down here!?"

In an instant, there was only a "boom--", the whole earth trembled, and then a huge mushroom cloud rose.

"Hey, what's going on here?" The villagers talked a lot.

"Over there, it seems to be the direction where Carter and the others ran!" Nick suddenly exclaimed, causing the villagers to panic, "Then what are we waiting for, go and have a look!"

After finishing speaking, all the villagers picked up the things they could take and ran towards the direction of the incident.

The meteor that fell just now left a huge crater on the ground. After the smoke cleared around the crater, Carter coughed a few times, sat up slowly, and supported Annie, who was under his protection just now. "...Annie! Are you all right?"

Annie trembled a little, raised her arms, and suddenly threw herself into Carter's arms: "Carter——! Huh...I'm so scared..."

Carter was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses, hugged Annie tightly, and said softly, "It's okay, it's okay, with me here, everything is fine." Carter's expression was very gentle, and he made up his mind silently, In the future, I will never let you run into danger...

"Hey—! Carter—! Anne—!"

"Ah, Nick." Carla pulled Annie away and wiped her tears, "Annie, let's go."

"Yeah." Annie smiled shyly, took Carter's hand, and followed his footsteps.

"Carter, Anne, are you all right?" The villagers snickered when they saw the two people approaching sweetly, "Oh oh oh~~~~~"

"Okay, we're fine." Carter was embarrassed and shy, but he never let go of Anne's hand.

"I knew you'd be fine, hey, right, Tommy?" Nick leaned in next to the other redhead, nudged him with his shoulder, and kept winking at Carter.

Tommy crossed his chest with his left hand, rubbed his chin with his right thumb and forefinger, nodded, gave Carter a deep look, and agreed.

"Ah! Stop laughing!"

"Pfft—! Hahahaha—!" In the end, everyone laughed.

The laughter of the crowd made the cheerful and generous Annie hide behind Carter shyly. At this moment, she saw something glowing in the middle of the huge pit, and she stretched out her hand to pull Carter, "Carter, there seems to be something over there!" .”

This sentence instantly diverted everyone's attention.

"Hmph, let's go and see what hit such a big hole on the ground~" Before he finished speaking, Nick ran over.

"Hey! Wait!" Carter saw it, and immediately followed, followed by Tommy. Annie sighed heavily, and followed.

"Okay, okay, let's go and have a look too." An old and kind voice sounded behind everyone.

"village head."

"Let's go."

So, all the villagers followed the village head to the four boys and girls.

All four of them were kneeling on the ground, and Anne was caressing a glowing ball with a diameter about the size of a basin with both hands. The ball was translucent and very beautiful.

"What is this?"

"Shh... don't make noise." The village head said softly.

"Huh? What's the matter?" Just as a villager was born and asked, the ball shone brighter, and at the same time, a wonderful fragrance of flowers filled the surroundings.

After the light passed, the thing that was originally a ball turned into a huge purple flower bud, which was full of light. Then, the petals unfolded one by one, dazzling, finally revealing the sleeping baby curled up inside.

"It's a child!" Annie woke up first, stretched out her hands to the child in the flowers, hugged him out, and showed a big smile, "Carter, let's raise him~"

"Hey--?"

So, amidst the astonishment of everyone, Anne made this important decision.

However, no one noticed that black shadow in the woods not far away...

Ahh, I found it...

After searching for so long, I finally found you...
