Fairy's Chess Game

Chapter 94
"Uru? Is it Uru from the Ice Mage?"

Leonor said first: "Yes, yes, how do you know? By the way, you are also a mage, you must have heard of it, right? Our Ulu is a very famous mage."

Woz didn't have time to pay attention to her. Instead, he hurriedly asked Ulu, "Mr. Ulu, do you know if there is a wizard's guild here called Fairy Tail? What year is it?"

Ulu was caught off guard by Woz's barrage of questions, frowned and thought for a while: "This year is 764, and as for Fairy Tail of the Wizards Guild... After all, I haven't joined a guild, so it's not very Clearly..." Seeing Woz's anxious look, Ulu couldn't bear it, and tried to remember, "By the way, Fairy Tail! I've heard of it. The guild is a very famous guild decades ago!"

"Really? Sure enough..." Woz muttered to himself, but there was a complicated look on his small face that didn't match his age. It was a bit of a surprise, but more of a relief.

"Have you really arrived in the world of Fairy Tail?"

Uru asked, "What's wrong? Are you from Fairy Tail? How did you come to such a remote place?"

Woz shook his head: "No, I just confirm where I am."

Leonor was puzzled and asked, "Confirm where you are? Is this the way?" Asked a place thousands of miles away to determine the direction?This coordinate range is slightly larger, is this child from the same world as us!

But she didn't know that her unconscious complaints accurately stated the origin of Woz.

Woz is really not from this world!

Strictly speaking, Woz himself doesn't remember his previous identity experience, but he is sure that he is not an "indigenous person" in the world of Aslant, but a traverser; Woz's unreal memory still vaguely I remember that I used to be a novel writer, at least in my twenties, not a frail infant like now!
Before coming to the world of Aslant, Woz's "soul" wandered in the infinite nothingness for a long time, maybe just for a moment; in the nothingness that lost the concept of time and space, all of this seemed meaningless Meaning, this wandering soul is almost assimilated and erased even the concept of "self".

Then his chaotic memory suddenly recalled something about "Fairy Tail"—it seemed to be a drama he had seen in his previous life?Or maybe a famous novel?After all, he is a novelist!
He still generally remembers the plot of this story, but it's not exhaustive. It's like under normal memory conditions, there will always be some normally forgotten parts of the plot that he saw a few years ago.

He didn't understand why he recalled these memories, and he even doubted whether it was his "memory", because he still knew nothing about it and couldn't make a comparison.But he had no way to react at all, he could only accept it passively.

Thanks to these rather interesting storylines supporting him, this lonely wandering soul has a "goal" - to read and sort out these plots repeatedly, so that his almost chaotic thinking can be reactivated, and his existence With an "anchor"; with the "content" to think about, thinking has real meaning.

This even made him feel that he had the concept of "time".

But I don't know how long after that, time is still meaningless, it's just that he has watched this damaged and incomplete memory plot countless times, and when he is familiar with it and even starts to forget it, he realizes that there is another New "memory".

Or "information" is more appropriate.

"The call of the gods... the chess game with the world as the chessboard... wandering lonely souls and pan-universe gamers... in order to find the ultimate meaning... to eliminate eternal boredom..."

"Come on, let's fight! Dedicate the most exciting chess game!"

The space exploded brightly, and the grand sound resounded like thunder, rolling up a huge storm, tearing the "soul" into it.

Then, "he" woke up.

In a world of ice and snow, in a frail body of only about two years old, a wandering and lonely soul came to life. Feeling it, he stretched out his hand. The biting cold was unexpectedly strange, but it clearly reminded him of his own "existence" and "aliveness". " meaning!

what is this?Is it... crossed?What before the union...?
The memory became blurred again, only the plot about "Fairy Tail" is still remembered.

So in theory, this is the world of Fairy Tail?
He looked around, but there was no one there, only a vast expanse of whiteness, so white that it was blinding.

A gust of wind blew by, and the snow rolled up on the ground hit his naked body, making the boy's small body tremble.

This instinctive shudder reminded him that the environment here was hostile to him.Reminding him of the pressure of survival.

He had to find a way to keep warm, otherwise he would be frozen to death just after waking up.

But now there is nothing but the boundless snow and ice around him, and he doesn't know where he is, and he has no way to keep warm!
Another gust of wind blows.He decided that no matter what, the most urgent task is to find a place with a leeward wind first.So he stepped forward, and the moment he landed, the coldness of the soles of his feet passed by, causing half of his calf to lose consciousness.

"It's so cold!" He quickly withdrew his steps, and then wondered, "Why don't I feel cold here?"

He looked down and found that he was not directly standing in the snow. There was something under his feet. He squatted down and took a closer look. It turned out to be a book. It was a huge hardcover book like an encyclopedia. The top is covered with an unknown type of leather, even in the icy and snowy world, it will not become cold, and even faintly reveals a trace of heat.

Thanks to it, his feet didn't get frostbitten, and even his whole body didn't lose all the heat quickly by the harsh environment.

"This, is it my novice equipment?" He teased himself bitterly, while moving his feet carefully, and opened the book without stepping on the snow.

There are familiar square characters in the book. Although he can't remember when he learned this kind of characters, the familiarity that penetrates into his soul revealed a lot of reassurance.

The book is very empty. Among the countless pages of the book, there is only a name "Woz Frenner" written on the title page, which means "a foreigner of words".

"If it is said that this book is indeed for me, then in other words, this is my name?" After confirming that there is no more content, he glanced at the name on the book again and made a decision own name.

But what good is it to have a name for yourself?It's not about facing the dilemma of freezing to death.Woz complained helplessly.

At this moment, the snow field next to Woz suddenly swelled, and a black figure jumped out of the snow, setting off a small-scale intense snowstorm.Before he could see what it was, the black shadow rushed straight to Woz's small body.

Caught off guard, Woz, whose body was frozen and unable to move, was thrown to the ground, and then let out a scream. It wasn't that he was hurt by the black shadow, but he was lying on the snow all of a sudden and was frozen!
But then Woz struggled to get out of the icy snow, but was not attacked by the unknown shadow during the period. After calming down, Woz realized that it was a huge bird that jumped at him. His body was a little bit bigger. I don't know why he was buried in the snow for so long, but his gray and black feathers were still warm and abnormal.Seeing that it didn't mean to hurt him, Woz was reluctant to let go, and hugged this bird of unknown species tightly, treating it like a natural heater and down jacket.

"Lu, Luluya!" The big bird didn't struggle, just let out a strange cry, and pecked Woz's hair affectionately twice.

"Such a big bird should belong to the category of Warcraft?" Woz muttered, "The sound is really interesting, so let's call you Luluya."

Woz named her very simply and roughly.The latter did not refute, and called out excitedly a few more times.

To Woz's surprise, this Lululuya seems to be one of the "novice equipment gift packs" prepared for him by the "god" in the dark. I found food and clothes... Presumably they got it from someone's house, right?
But Woz, who is suffering from hunger and cold, can't control so much. The most important thing is to ensure that he can survive in this harsh environment.

Taking advantage of the temporarily fine weather, Woz followed Luluya on a difficult trek, trying to reach the nearby village, where Lululuya brought clothes and food.It didn’t take long to see Luluya go out to hunt for treasure every time, so Woz felt that the nearby human settlements shouldn’t be too far away.It's a pity that Lululuya doesn't seem to be able to carry her, otherwise she would just fly over with her.

But who would have thought that Woz and the others went on for the third day in a row, until heavy snow fell and closed the mountain, Woz found that he was still surrounded by mountains, and there was no trace of human habitation around him.Woz couldn't help but began to wonder if Lululuya had taken the wrong path. Could it be that she couldn't find her direction if she wasn't flying in the sky?He tried to ask Luluya, this spirit bird is extremely intelligent and can understand Woz's words.But she couldn't speak, she could only look at Woz innocently, which made people feel helpless.

However, the weather at this time is already full of wind and snow, and there are white patches of snow everywhere. Under the strong wind, people can't tell whether the snow fell from the sky or was rolled up on the ground , the chaos was immense.

As a last resort, Woz could only find a sheltered cave to stay temporarily and let Lululuya go out to find food.
