Chapter 19 Do you need me to accompany you?

 The moonlight tonight is exceptionally bright, and the cold silver light shines on the endless sea of ​​clouds. Milky white spray squeezes out from the edge of the rolling waves. A large unknown bird flies past the clouds, and the ends of its wing and tail feathers are dyed.

It is coated with a delicate brilliance, shining like a school of fish on the bottom of the sea, and the sound of flapping wings is clearer than the sound of the tide.

Suddenly, a huge creature swam from the depths of the sea. The heavy shadow was like an ancient deep-sea beast looking for food. It brought a sense of oppression as if facing a bottomless abyss. It disturbed the small group of swimming fish and dispersed.

Opening, the feathers falling rustlingly turned into fireflies floating all over the sky.

Immediately, the huge beluga slowly surfaced from the sea, flapping its giant wings on the rocks, and soared freely under the vast night. Sometimes it wandered in the soft and continuous waves, feeling the gradually moistening changes of the clouds and fog, as if it was this whale.

New blood is injected into the body of rocks and earth; sometimes he jumps up and leaps towards the silver full moon hanging in the sky, cuts through a beautiful arc and then submerges into the sea again, but does not let the travelers on his back

People feel bumpy.

If someone witnesses this scene, I am afraid that there will be another legend about "a huge whale swimming in the clouds, playing with birds and the moon".

However, this is just an empty island that looks like a whale. It is not a real whale. Therefore, it naturally does not behave like playing and having fun. The person who controls it is actually another person.<

/p>

And if you want to ask her why she did such a thing, it's probably because... she's bored, right?

"Alas."

Sitting in his windmill tower room, Ieta sighed boredly.

Looking out the window, across the quiet flower fields and deep forests, you can see the rolling sea of ​​clouds on the distant skyline. With the continuous refraction of clouds, mist, moonlight and starlight, a dreamy curtain gradually opens, in which

All kinds of strange and gorgeous colors are moving: magnificent and bright fiery red, low and deep dark red, mysterious and dark purple, beautiful and beautiful light pink... bunches, like fragments of the aurora, passed through

The gaps in the clouds gradually spread towards the unknown land.

Which country's territory is it? Grand Britta? Laisenberg? Ristel? Laisenwil? Or Roggeburg? Ietta doesn't know, she just heard these names from Ringer.

She didn't know anything about them at all. Even the castle where she stayed the longest was limited to a small village in Avignon, and nothing else could leave a more vivid impression on her.

Once you leave the familiar world, everything that remains is strange.

The girl leaned her head against the wall blankly. From the forest in the distance, melodious music could be heard vaguely. It was the people at the hotel who were holding a banquet to celebrate this memorable day.

The initiator of the banquet was naturally the proprietress Siesta. The sound of her ringing the bell was clearly heard even by Ieta in the windmill. It soon received a response from everyone, but this time everyone's enthusiasm was not fake.

, but from the heart.

Ieta also wanted to go to the banquet, but she couldn't do it because the girl had no way to leave the windmill tower room. Although she had freed the earth under her feet, in the final analysis, she was still not free.<

/p>

Xie Mi had come to ask for the primroses blooming in the flower field on behalf of her sister before, saying that they would be used to make snacks for the evening banquet. Ietta heard a lot about the banquet from her, such as the bonsai band.

The music played, the delicious dishes made by Miss Shesta, the impromptu duel of Mr. Rabbits, Alice's gluttony performance, Miss Shelia's favorite work, etc.

Of course she was envious and wanted to get involved, but she didn't say anything in the end. She just pursed her lips, nodded silently, agreed to Xie Mi's request, and then watched her cut a few bundles of primroses from the flower field.

, held in my arms, flew away happily and lightly.

She should be very happy, otherwise she wouldn't have a joyful smile on her lips even when she talks endlessly. Ieta also had happiness and joy like hers, but the girl didn't learn to be content, so she lost them forever.

.All the misfortunes she encountered in her subsequent life, and the loneliness that followed her, were probably just punishments for her insatiable greed.

The more he thought about it, the deserted the empty room became. Iyetta suddenly missed Alice. Although she was very noisy when she occupied her room to play games, and she always blamed herself for disturbing her, but such noise seemed...

It is even more precious than now. If she is willing to come back, it is not that he cannot play games with her. Iyeta thought.

But it was useless to miss Alice. Maybe she was still enjoying the delicious food at the banquet to make up for her ascetic life in the past half month. So she missed Saint Shalia again. Missing her, she would always sit there

On the steps in front of the door, while combing the lamb, I chatted with myself, talking about the girl's queenship and motherhood. I had forgotten it, but I will definitely keep it in my heart in the future.

I miss Metien’s serious back while lying on a tree stump doing homework, I miss Olvera’s suspicious appearance wandering around her windmill, I miss Xemi’s carefree appearance riding a lamb in the flower field.

In the end, he even missed Ringer. Angel shook his head quickly and put away such terrible thoughts. Why did he miss Ringer? It was obvious that he had not been with him once in the past half month, and he didn't care at all.

I don’t care either.

It seems that the only meaning I have to him is to be one of the seven keys needed to open the heavenly temple. If I were not the young queen, would he still be willing to help me? Ieta always thinks so, although

No answer.

But these longings are all superficial. They are just a moment of indescribable loneliness and no relief. What really makes the tip of Ieta's nose sore when she thinks about it is that she used to make fun of her for being wiped by mud while working in the fields.

She was embarrassed when she went to herd sheep but was chased by the sheep. She accidentally fell down during harvesting. However, at the Harvest Festival celebration, all the good harvest of the year was attributed to her, and she was unanimously elected as this year's winner.

"Harvest Girl", those people who made her feel at a loss but very moved.

Half a month after leaving their hometown, their faces still flash before our eyes from time to time, their kind or loving smiles, or their childish or caring smiles, which are still vivid to this day, as if they have never left. At this time, everyone is immersed in the banquet.

In happiness, when the girl is alone in the room, she will miss them especially, even more than usual.

Aunt Fasu once taught her a song, which is said to be a tune sung by the villagers in the Salia Wilderness from generation to generation. Those shepherds who have to stay away from their hometown to pursue the wilderness and vegetation, in the starless world with only their sheep for company.

On a moonlit night, this song will be sung.

"However, I'm afraid our little Iyetta will never have the chance to sing this song." At that time, Aunt Fasu said so, perhaps because she felt that with everyone's company, Iyetta would never be lonely or alone.

You may need its comfort.

Who knew loneliness would come so quickly, like the tide of the sea, coming so violently that there is nowhere to retreat.

The girl leaned against the wall, quietly staring out the window at the endless night, the vast sea of ​​clouds and the eternal moonlight. She slowly opened her mouth and sang a song:

The wind blows, in Salia's field.

I see you flying,

You said you wanted to return to your hometown.

When I miss you, the fallen leaves float down and blend into the dark soil.

It is your silent whisper,

Invisible wishes,

And the endless distance.

……

The song floats to the sea of ​​clouds where the endless moonlight shines, echoing between the clouds and the waves. When the tide rises and falls, the moonlight also spreads back and forth in the primrose field in front of the house, dimly flickering in the girl's eyes, illuminating the empty night.
Suddenly, there was a slight noise outside the door. Someone stepped on the flowers, grass and fallen leaves on the ground, and gradually came closer. Ieta's singing stopped suddenly, and she asked from a long distance away: "Yes."

Who?"

"It's me, Ieta."

A familiar voice came from outside. The angel's eyes widened in surprise. He dragged the chain on his ankle and walked over to open the door. He saw Olvera standing at the steps of the windmill, holding a delicate bamboo in her hand.

Basket.

After seeing Iyeta, she raised her head, showed a somewhat reserved smile, and raised the bamboo basket in her hand sheepishly: "Well, Miss Linge and Shesta, let me bring you something to eat.

,By the way... I'll accompany you."
