Chapter 60 2.55 The Tenth Waiter: A Good Man
[Eastern Suburb Forest - Land of Spirits]

Edina recalled the appearance of the girl she saw just now. The dazzling sunlight pierced through the clouds and sprinkled little by little in the forest. It was another girl who was accepted by the land of spirits.

It's scary here, it's full of bones and ghosts everywhere, the night where ghosts haunt all the time, the daytime that is shrouded in mist and whispers.

Edina is here, listening to the whispers of the undead, whether it is manic, sad, repetitive, disorderly, or chaotic, she accepts them all together.

Here are all the dead souls she is familiar with. These dead souls were her comrades-in-arms before they were alive, and they affectionately called her 'Bone Girl'.

In the beginning, Edina and the heroic spirits in this area did not live in this continent. They came from a distant country, and that country was in another continent - the Continent of Gathering.

The undead here now, Edina firmly believes that no matter how many creatures they slaughtered in their lifetime, they are just poor guys involved in the inescapable war of fate, and they will be ruthlessly forgotten by future generations after death, regardless of the changes of time or not.So Edina brought them to this land.

She cared nothing for anything outside the forest.Because she does not belong here, she is not a person of this era.Those who lived in this forest and were still alive, the Yuling tribe almost also forgot about the undead.

Idena doesn't care about all these things, but only those who recognize the undead in the land of spirits can be favored.

It's ridiculous to say, but there are only a handful of people who will accept Edina and the others, ghosts with physical defects and terrifying faces.

These dead souls are just acting weird and ugly, but in fact they are almost out of the world, so they don't have much thought for the world, but most people are still very repulsive and resistant when they see them.

Edina should have seen the girl when she was young. At that time, she was just watching from a distance, observing the girl who was sent in again.

The girl was not disturbed by their appearance or their weird behavior, not even a little bit of fear.He even dared to ask the disabled soldiers for directions, saying that he wanted to help them find their way home, so the land of spirits recognized the little girl.Seeing this, Edina also secretly helped, helping the little girl survive the next day.

Now, the reason why Edina left the land of spirits is because she felt the breath of Lancelot. The little boy named Lancelot actually wanted to worship her as his teacher. Since Lancelot left Edina never saw him again after leaving the forest in the eastern suburbs.

It is naturally impossible for the teacher to say that he does not want him, but he did not expect to meet again in such a form.

Edina, who followed her breath, only saw Lancelot's daughter, but not him.

It turned out that this little girl was his daughter.

People in the world are always so strange, judging a person's good or bad by their appearance, ugly appearance is evil, and good appearance is good.And I don't know how many things in human skin are wandering in this world.

People are not afraid, afraid of some ghosts taking their lives. (Fang Xu: No Q, thank you)

【Frontline of Royal City War】

"Children, come here." Holding a piece of steamed bun in a slender hand with dust in it, he beckoned to a half-grown crying child in the distance, and the thin arms and fingertips were covered with mottled light and shadow.

In response, the child looked up and saw a thin little brother who was dressed like a beggar, but had a friendly smile and was kind and thin. He couldn't help crying, "Mom, I'm looking for my mother."

The boy stood up, and the skull key on his neck shone with a strange light.He approached the child carefully step by step, and asked softly, as if speaking into the air, his voice was so small that it was almost silent.

"How many childish hearts do I need?"

Seeing the little brother walking towards him, the child couldn't help but want to flinch, but looking at the bun in his hand, he couldn't help swallowing again.

"Here, here you are." Seeing the child staring at the steamed bun in his hand, Fang Xu generously put the hard moldy steamed bun into the child's hand.

Seeing the child's vigilant eyes, it seems that he wants to escape.

Fang Xu's tone slowed down, and he bent down, "My brother has lost his mother, how about looking for his mother together with my brother?"

As if this sentence touched the child, the child nodded.

Fang Xu stretched out his hand, "Let's go." After speaking, he wiped the teardrops from the corners of the children's eyes.

"We will definitely find them, so don't be sad." The child blew his nose, held Fang Xu's hand, and instead comforted Fang Xu in a childlike voice, "Brother, you are such a good person."

"Ah, thank you, kid."

Fang Xu said with a blank face, his eyes were dumb.

Talking along the way, the vigilance and defense on the child's face gradually relaxed, but the two of them walked to a remote place unknowingly,

"Brother, where are we going?" The child asked doubtfully when he saw many mounds of dirt with crosses stuck in them.

The spear in Fang Xu's mind finally heard a voice, "99 pieces have been collected, and now is the last one."

"Thank you." Fang Xu thanked him coldly, without any warmth or emotion.

But immediately Fang Xu's face became warmer, he turned his head, lowered his body, looked at the child lovingly, and gently stroked the child's red eye sockets from crying.

The voice is also extremely gentle, "It may hurt a little."

"But don't be afraid."

"Soon you'll be able to see your mother."

"Brother, do you know where mother is? Where is she?"

"in heaven."

【Paradise City】

Daniel's symptoms flared up again, and once it hit, he couldn't distinguish reality from the past. Anger, irritability, and repressed emotions were pressing in his chest, and he felt like his heart would explode.

In the darkness, he was breathing wildly like a ghost, and he imagined all kinds of cruel deaths for everyone who appeared in his memory.

He is timid, sensitive, and cowardly, all the black in front of his eyes turned into blood in an instant, his emotions are constantly switching between sobriety and anger, sometimes he picks up things angrily, and wants to tear them apart and go hard smash.

In front of him are the group of people playing cards and smoking; walking, talking and laughing, hurrying;

Nausea, disgust.

Even the sound of human breathing would make him feel uncomfortable, but not only human beings, even the rats in the gutter made him want to tear them apart.

He couldn't help being angry and roaring.He couldn't help hiding, and was so frightened that even the leaves fell to the top of his head and couldn't help shaking.

Can't stand it!Can't stand it!
"Die! Die! Die! Die all!"

Daniel lost his mind and slammed his head against the wall.But even the walls are soft.Now the place where he lives is all soft, without any sharp objects.

Of course, there was no light at the same time.

The soft touch pulled his reason back little by little, like a falling object slowly landed on the soft and resilient carpet.

He took a breath, feeling the wet sweat running through his hair.When he was awake, he thought of those days when people fell in front of him one by one, and died violently one after another according to his own ideas.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." He murmured, guilt and self-blame were about to swallow him up again.

Sorry sorry, it's all his fault.

But how could they blame him! !
All these people are dirty!
deserve it!Despicable!
There is no justice in the world, everything is just a joke!
Daniel fell into anger again.Constantly switching back and forth between anger, clarity, self-blame, brutality.

Finally, he pulled his hair, stretched out his hand and grabbed his neck, a little harder, and a little harder.

He couldn't take it anymore, he really wanted to leave, he really wanted to escape.

But he realized that he couldn't die.Painfully suffocating.

Daniel curled up and clutched his heart tightly, the oppressive and dark emotions almost killed him over and over again.He went back to that dirty alley corner again, with flying insects and flies, stinking garbage cans, drunken vomit on the ground, and fresh blood flowing on the ground.

"Don't, don't come here..." and the whisper in his mouth.

"Hey, everyone, come and take a look, there are actually people here!"

A crisp girl's voice was accompanied by curious little heads poking one after another.

Daniel's breath calmed down.

"Yeah, do you want to follow us? Oh, what's your name?"

He wanted to speak in his mouth, but he was too scared to speak, tears kept streaming down his face, he was really timid.

"Lucas, are you talking too loudly, making people cry."

"Slightly slightly slightly, where is it!"

He watched the bickering between the two, and the tears stopped flowing.

"What's your name, do you want to be friends with us?"

Tears flowed down again, but he actually spoke intermittently: "I want... I want... I want friends." He even answered the question in a panic, "No, name."

"Ah, so you stutter!"

"Stuttering, you ass, can you talk!"

"It hurts, hurts, take it easy!"

"Then you are the seventh to join us, let's call you Seventh!"

His heart suddenly stopped hurting, and the human breath and human temperature made him feel a little nostalgic. Daniel wanted to go back to that summer, watching the group of children playing around by the trash can, looking forward to the future and swearing with.Talking about unattainable ideals, the most important thing is that everyone is still laughing, with vibrant smiles on their faces.

"Amon Ra, the king of the gods!"

"Thoth, God of Knowledge and Wisdom!"

……

It was his last turn.

"The Judge, the Great Prophet Daniel!"

Daniel opened his eyes, as if he had just finished a dream he couldn't return to, and Gaia's crying words were heard in his ears.

"I just feel that the seven people back then are only you and me left now."

In front of him, she didn't look as strong as the mother of the earth as people said, she was just a helpless child.

She cried over and over again, "I feel like I want to go with them too."

"I'm in so much pain, I miss them so much."

Daniel could only hug her tightly, like a piece of duckweed caught in the sea, he murmured, "It's okay, you still have me."

Daniel's tense muscles gradually relaxed, he couldn't die, he had to live, Gaia had only him.

The blood in his eyes faded, but there was still endless darkness and melancholy in his eyes.

It doesn't matter, he can bear it, he can continue to bear it, and he can't let Gaia be alone when he is uncomfortable, he has to stay with Gaia.

Until Gaia no longer needs him and has more people to rely on, it will be fine.

After going crazy, Daniel felt that his whole body was soaked, including his lead-heavy head, and his whole body was in pain, but as long as he was conscious, it was enough.
