Fairy’s Box

Thick dark clouds gathered from all sides, and they weighed heavily on the top of the giant tree in the manor.

The gust of wind swept across the canopy, making a clattering sound, and the candlelight dimmed at the same time.

On both sides of the corridor outside the room, various styles of oil paintings are displayed, and Yale stands by the door on the right, staring at the oil painting on the wall, which is a portrait of the Virgin Cadia. Holding a white porcelain flask in her hand, she was donating holy dew to a group of people suffering from injuries and illnesses—a precious medicine that the Orthodox Church alone holds.

In this picture, the expression on Kadia's holy face is no longer sad, but it is also not happy. She looks forward with deep eyes, as if thinking about an unsolvable problem, and seems to have endless fighting spirit .

"..."

The black-haired knight stared at Kadia in a trance. He was not religious himself, and he had never been to church a few times when he grew up. Like his grandfather, he maintained the ancient tradition of worshipping his ancestors.

Therefore, of course, he has no interest in religious knowledge at all, and of course he is even less aware of the deeds of St. Cadia, nor is he interested in knowing. But since he went to see the legendary crying statue of Kadia with the little nurse two days ago, he has developed a strong thirst for knowledge about the life and deeds of this saint.

By looking through the religious history books, Vesta only found the date of birth to death of the saint. The records of her are all the same praise - the glorious daughter of Christ, with unconquerable courage and infinitely rich feelings. , the virtue of the simple, the wisdom of the upright, and so on. There was little record of what the saint had done, even to the extent of deliberately concealing it, which made him very curious.

The little nurse still delivered him three meals a day, chatted with him to relieve his boredom, and took him to every corner of the manor. This girl is as pure as a blank piece of paper, with all her thoughts on her little face. It is hard to imagine where her sincere motivation comes from, is it just pure belief?

After the sky was gloomy for a while, it finally started to rain heavily, and the sound of pattering rain was everywhere. From time to time, two thunders rang out in the depths of the sky, and the cold electric light was reflected on the wall. Even Saint Cadia in the painting looked a bit gloomy.

clap clap clap...

A series of hurried footsteps came from the stairs below, and soon, the little nurse appeared in the corridor with a shivering figure holding an oil lamp.

She first carefully explored with the lights, and then slowly leaned forward against the wall. When she saw the black-haired knight, her eyes immediately lit up, and she called in an apple-like sandy voice:

"gentlemen!"

"Oh, it's you again."

Yale pretended to have just discovered her, and at the same time showed a surprised look.

"Why do you say it's me again? I just got here." The little nurse froze in place, and after a few seconds, she shivered again, her face full of unease.

"No no no, I saw you two minutes ago, and you also gave me a question."

"What's the problem?" She trembled even more, and subconsciously approached the attendant behind her - the big crow.

Ever since she was once frightened by the black-haired knight's fear force field, this crow, who the girl called Dahei, became her little follower, inseparable all day long.

"You test if I remember where your room is. You just walked by with me yesterday, how could I forget."

"You won't really tell it, will you!?" The little nurse asked with a trembling cry as a mist appeared in her bright pupils.

"certainly……"

Yale deliberately lengthened her tone. Seeing that she pouted her aggrieved mouth and was about to cry, she stopped teasing and said with a stronger tone:

"No! In fact, I didn't see anything wrong with her. She was wet, her skin was pale and scary, and there was a chill, so I drove her away. When you came here just now, I thought it was her again."

"Thank you so much." She said sincerely.

"Hahaha, you're welcome." He first put on a "trivial matter not worth mentioning" expression, and then asked: "By the way, it's still morning, why did you come here?"

"Because, thunder... so..." The little nurse lowered her head shyly, staring at her toes nervously.

"Understood."

Yale couldn't bear to continue teasing her, then pushed open the door beside him and knocked on the door frame:

"Then come in and sit down."

"Well." She replied obediently, and walked into the room with her attendant.

The two sat face to face on both sides of the coffee table, and the crow named Da Hei hid behind the little nurse. In the eyes of this big bird, nothing was more terrifying than the human on the opposite side.

"I'll sing you a song." She volunteered to puff out her chest.

"Okay." Before he knew it, he had fallen in love with this little cutie from the bottom of his heart.

Soon, in the dim light, a sweet voice sounded softly, the little nurse held both hands on her chest, raised her beautiful face, and sang a beautiful nursery rhyme.

The girl's pure singing voice is like the sound of nature, diluting the darkness of the haze.

Even the dark clouds in the sky seemed to be infected, and they began to dissipate slowly.

The bright sunlight gradually shone into the room from the window, projecting two figures, one big and one small, on the wall, getting closer and closer, just like the hearts of the two.

"Does it sound good?" She looked shy and expectant.

"Very nice!" He uttered a heartfelt compliment.

"I have a treasure that I want to show you." The little nurse said mysteriously with a smile on her face.

"I'm looking forward to your treasure."

"Um!"

She jumped off the seat happily, ran to Da Hei at the back, took out a package from the backpack on the back of the big crow, and held it in front of Yale like a treasure:

"Want to see it?"

"Want to see it!" He nodded very cooperatively, making a very interested expression.

"Hey hey hey."

The girl laughed until her eyes turned into two crescent moons, and the corners of her mouth turned into beautiful arcs. She shook it in her hand proudly. After the black-haired knight made the move she wanted to grab, she took a brisk step back. Carefully open the package.

In the center of the girl's little hand, half a crystal exudes a pure light, a crystal clear orange-yellow color, shimmering in the sunlight.

The moment he saw the crystal, the relaxed smile on the black-haired knight's face disappeared instantly, his whole body trembled like an electric shock, his pupils stared at the crystal, his throat seemed to be blocked by some kind of heavy object, and he said no. speak out.

"It's a magic gem that can **** away sadness and sadness!"

The little nurse didn't notice his expression, she walked to the floor-to-ceiling window as if showing off, put the crystal in the sunlight, and put her face on it. Looking at the colorful halo refracted by the crystal, her big eyes suddenly became brighter, and her face was as bright as the clear spring sky:

"Every time I feel sad and sad, just looking at it makes me feel better, it must have some magic! So..."

She deliberately walked slowly to Yalei's side, held half a crystal in her palm, and handed it to him:

"I'll lend it to you, it's just a loan to you, you can't take it away!"

"..."

The black-haired knight stretched out his slightly trembling right hand and spread the gemstone in the palm of his hand. On the cutting surface of the yellow crystal, a row of rough characters appeared in his field of vision - Louise.

It's really you...

"Louise...is that your name?" He suppressed his hoarse voice and asked calmly.

"Well! Does it sound good?" The little nurse responded forcefully, looking at him hopefully.

"Very nice... Come here, let me take a closer look at you!"

Yale lightly held the girl's delicate wrist and dragged her to him, his expression softer than ever before: "Louis... Master Chief Jerein Bond, is it your father... me and him... "

He choked for a while and didn't know what to say. Should he tell this girl the cruel reality? Can this Kerr who looks like a porcelain doll in front of him endure this kind of pain?

"Do you know him?"

The little nurse showed a happy expression, held her left hand to her heart, and said with longing: "My father, like you, is a great hero."

Having said this, her bright eyes dimmed:

"It was already agreed, but he didn't come back, just like his mother."

She knew...she always knew...

"But it doesn't matter, I won't feel lonely and sad because with this crystal, every time I look at it's light, it's like dad and mom smiling in heaven. They must be looking at me, as long as there is it Now, Louise won't be sad anymore."

The little nurse took the gem from the black-haired knight and placed it in front of him, with a bright smile returning to her face:

"I'll lend it to you."

Across the mottled and transparent crystals, the pure smile on Louise's face was refracted into many shapes. In the pale golden sunlight, she was holy like an angel.

"Is there any reason for Louise to work so hard?" he asked.

"Because I want to help more people like you. You and Dad are the same heroes, but heroes can also get hurt. So, Louise will chat with you, sing to you, and find a way to heal you."

The little nurse shook the gemstone in front of him, then took it to her lips earnestly, and blew softly: "Pain has been sucked in by magic, now Louise wants to blow them away, so that you can It won't be sad anymore."

"I won't be sad anymore...because, little Louise, cast the best magic on me."

Yale looked at the concern in the girl's eyes, and hugged her in his arms distressedly. Before he knew it, the abyss-like darkness in his eyes had disappeared.
