In a dense and deep forest, there is an old lime tree.
Next to the old lime tree is a bottomless pool.
The surface of the pool is dark, like a flawless black gem.
An ordinary-looking frog squatted by the pool.
Its appearance was reflected on the surface of the pool, and its two protruding eyes showed a strong look of fear.
"Ah, croak, croak, if this is a nightmare, croak, let me wake up quickly. Croak." The frog actually spoke, with a hint of sadness in his tone.
"Father... Gua Gua, Henry... Gua Gua, where are you? Where is this?" The frog looked around helplessly, with a strong look of pain.
"How can I become an adult again? Guaguagua..."
Suddenly, a sound of footsteps came from outside the forest.
The talking frog was startled, and jumped into the pool naturally, just like his innate instinct, and lurked beside the water plants.
Along with the footsteps, there was a brisk nursery rhyme.
""Children born on Monday have very good looks;"
"Children born on Tuesday are full of joy and happiness;"
"Children born on Wednesday have more sadness;"
"A child born on Thursday will be far away from the place where he was born;"
"Children born on Friday know how to love and give;"
"Children born on Saturday have to work very hard to make a living;"
"Children born on Sunday are upright and wise, kind and happy!"
Hearing this voice, the talking frog looked out from the gap in the water plants and saw a girl who looked as bright as the sun. She wore a laurel wreath with gems on her head, wore a royal blue duplex palace dress, and held a
A round golden ball approached the water pool.
The frog's protruding eyes were full of shock, not only because of the girl's flawless beauty, but more importantly, as the girl got closer, the talking frog felt that some of the shackles on his body were loosening.
The frog suddenly fell into deep thought: Just getting close will have this effect, and if you get closer...
The girl who was as bright as the sun did not notice the existence of the frog. Yes, who would pay attention to an ordinary frog hiding before it spoke.
The girl went straight to the old lime tree, sat by the pool, and then began to play with the little golden ball by herself.
The little golden ball is not big, less than the size of a palm, a little bigger than a duck egg.
She threw the little golden ball into the air and caught it with her hands.
Although it was just a simple game, the girl played it very happily, with a bright smile on her face, which overwhelmed the flowers and beautiful scenery around her.
Suddenly one time, when the little golden ball fell through a parabola from the air, the little girl stretched out her hand to catch it. However, due to a misjudgment, the little golden ball did not fall into her hand, but fell to the ground. Then it fell to the ground.
Rolled into the pool.
The little girl's two bright big eyes stared intently at the little golden ball, but the golden ball suddenly submerged in the pool.
The pool is so deep that you can't even see the bottom at a glance.
The little girl was at a loss and panicked. She cried loudly when she saw this scene.
When she thought that the little golden ball would never come back, and that she would lose the little golden ball forever, the little girl cried louder and became more sad.
At this time, the strange frog sneaked close to the little girl. After feeling that the shackles on his body were loosened a few more times, the flame of hope suddenly ignited in his heart.
The apprentice witch who let it go did not tell it how to break the spell.
But it seemed to see a glimmer of hope in the little girl.
The talking frog suddenly made a decision in his heart and jumped out, "Quack..."

The Kingdom of Louis, with a land area similar to a horseshoe, is a country where all people believe in the Lord of Holy Light.
The Alva family that controls this kingdom has always been a devout believer in the Lord of Holy Light.
Under the influence of the Alva family, the entire country is dotted with churches of the Lord of Holy Light, as well as the Holy Emblem of the Lord of Holy Light. Therefore, the soldiers of this country have the title of defenders, with a "Holy Scripture" in one hand and a cross sword in the other.
, possessing a religious spirit that is not afraid of death.
They believe that if they fight for the Lord of Holy Light, they will enter the Kingdom of God after death and bathe in the glory of the Lord of Holy Light.
Because of this fanatical belief, the Kingdom of Louis ranks high among the large and small countries that line the entire continent. It is a sharp spear in the hands of the Holy Light Lord Church and one of the main sources of soldiers for the Eastern Expedition.
The Alva family has always had the ambition to expand outward and fully promote the faith of the Lord of Holy Light. They want to change the name of the Louis Kingdom to the St. Louis Empire.
It was just hindered by many factors in reality. There were some high-level people within the Lord of Holy Light Church who did not want the power of the Kingdom of Louis to expand.
Of course, the more important point is that the Kingdom of Louis is a warlike country, but it is not a rich country.
Behind the war is a huge amount of money.
It would be fine if the war was won, but what we fear most is falling into a stalemate, which is a bottomless pit.
Coupled with other constraints, several countries surrounding the Kingdom of Louis have formed a fragile balance.
In fact, this kind of balance exists throughout the entire continent. As long as the time is right, every land owner is keen to use various methods to increase the land under his name.
This means more wealth.

Barona, the capital of the Kingdom of Louis, is a fortress city with a vast area and rough architectural style.
In the heart of the capital is the Isfan Palace.
The Isfan Palace, with its majestic architecture and tightly coordinated layout, adopts a flat-top architectural style, which makes it appear upright and majestic.
On the top of the outer wall of the palace, there are many lifelike marble statues, all of which are works by masters. The statues are either saints of the Holy Light Church or the kings of the Kingdom of Louis in the past.
But who would have thought that 300 years ago, the place where the magnificent Isfan Palace was located was a swamp and wild forest that everyone avoided?
At the beginning, the Alva family was just a small knight family, and was not looked upon by the real big nobles. The Alva family was assigned to this territory, relying on their devout faith in the Lord of Holy Light and the sacrifice of their lives.
He sacrificed his life in exchange for achievements, and through several generations of hard work and marriage, he finally sat on the throne of the Lord of the Kingdom of Louis.
Time is indeed the greatest miracle.
William put on some disguise, followed the flow of people, and walked into this city with historical traces. Finally, William stayed in a hotel called the Eagle Hotel. Looking at the ordinary people coming and going outside with tired faces, William felt in his heart.
