The climate in the far east is very cold, so Aymore wrapped himself tightly in heavy clothes and walked in the snow with one foot deep and one foot shallow.His footprints were very messy, and his walking was not smooth. To be honest, this was not a suitable day for traveling at all.But he had to.Now all he wants is a cup of hot coffee, okay or regular hot water, he really doesn't care anymore.I just don't like such a ghostly weather, such a ghostly place.

After finally finding the right way back to the cave in the raging icy wind—every trip is accompanied by danger, if he can’t find the right direction, he may even die on the snowy land—he started to go deep Walking, the warm light from the innermost building is his guiding light at this moment.

"My child, you are back." The high priest patted the boy on the shoulder and handed him a cup of warm drink.

It is Dongwuzi juice, which has a slight hallucinogenic effect.If I drink a lot of it, I will become like everyone else—only listen to the High Priest, although it is almost the same now.Aymore drank it without any complaints, as long as it was warm, he needed everything, and it didn't matter what it was.

"The Moon Emperor Stone has been buried, my lord priest. Everything is going well." The boy took a few breaths and reported to him.

A smile appeared on the High Priest's face. "You've done a good job, go rest. Gods will appreciate it."

Tonight is the time for their calling.Aimer knew that those people wanted to drag a monster from Norringham, and everything they had arranged before was either to summon it or to trap it.What monster?he does not know.Can it work?He doesn't know either.

He looked out from his room, across the thick rock formations, into the cabin in the white light of the moon.No matter how severe the cold wind is, it will never pour into this cave, so this has become the reason why their people have chosen this place as their residence since ancient times.He stayed in this warm room, listening to the howling wind mixed with people's shouts.They have to go to every corner to guard well, lest this summoning be destroyed by any special circumstances.

The sound of chanting mantras came intermittently along with the sound of the wind.

The moonlight suddenly dimmed, then brightened again.Aymore raised his head suddenly, he knew that the summoning had begun.The Moon Emperor Stone is powerful, and it is buried in the position that can stimulate its power the most. It forms a perfect circle, and there will be no mistakes.Although he had always been curious about what he was summoning, it was not his turn to ask about such matters.All he can do now is to sit here, through this small window, and guess what's going on outside.

In the blink of an eye, a creature suddenly appeared in the middle of the room.

Aymore felt as if he was dreaming, so he rubbed his eyes earnestly.But when he opened his eyes again, the guy was still there.It was a very beautiful horse-like thing, with no horns on its head, no wings on its body, and hair whiter than snow all over its body, it just stood casually on the ground.Thanks to it, this normally unremarkable room looks so hazy and beautiful at the moment.It's really not of this world.

"It's not good for you to lock me up." The horse shook his head, "The breath here will only make my light recede, my magic will be ineffective, and I will become a screaming creature like you. A piece of land will not be blessed."

Usually, creatures with magic can communicate with humans, so the boy is not surprised why it speaks human words.He looked at the breathtakingly beautiful thing and wanted to ask it just one thing. "What exactly are you?"

"Look at the moon." It looked up, looking through the window, "I am it, it is me. If you will help me out, I promise you eternal protection. But only for you. Only for you you alone."

There are no good creatures in the Far East, and Aimer knows that everything in this place will do everything in order to survive, and even humans are the most sinister kind.He has no hope for this place, let alone nostalgia. The only entanglement is probably that he was born here.

"Can I leave this place?"

"Of course, my dear child, as long as you let me go. Go and destroy their summons, and I will take you away." It looked at the boy in front of him, very young but seemed to be able to do anything without caring, " When the time comes, whenever you hear someone calling you, just follow that voice."

"Okay." It's not clear whether Aimer was bewitched, anyway, he made up his mind in a split second.Because compared to this thing, he doesn't like the Dongwuzi juice given to him by the high priest.He swears that he has never wanted to leave more than this moment in his lifetime.

The boy slipped out of the cave without anyone noticing.Braving the blizzard to the place where he buried the Moon Emperor Stone, he dug out the stone and threw it at the bottom of the valley. The perfect circular array used to restrict power was completely destroyed.He heard a cheerful neigh, and the horse appeared beside him.In the white and messy mass of snow, that thing is so sacred that it is impossible to figure it out.He felt that what he saw was the Supreme God.Is this feeling called joy?he asked himself in his heart.

"Listen to that voice, my dear child." As he said, its shadow had disappeared into the howling snow.

The next day, the high priest led people to find the boy's body on the edge of the cliff.He resentfully kicked the corpse a few times, kicking the frozen body into the bottom of the valley.

"Stupid guy! He even let God Lucina go without authorization. If he is still alive, I will definitely kill him!"

"Should have locked him up long ago. The little bastard has been dishonest."

"Maybe he thought he got some benefits, isn't it a dead end?!"

"What a fool!"

Aymore opened his eyes and found himself on a white beach.The transparent and clear water surface shimmered, and the surroundings of the body were warm, as if the whole body was soaked in warm hot water.He remembered that when he was staggering forward in the storm, whenever he couldn't hear the sound clearly and wanted to stop, there would always be someone calling him in front of him.That person kept shouting, here, hey is here, move on a little bit, don't give up.

"Hey, you're awake." Listen, it's that voice again.This time Aymore sat up suddenly, and a young man in white sat beside him, looking at him with a smile on his cheek.

"you……"

"It's me. I promised to take you away." The young man smiled, and a soft light spread out in his eyes.

"where is this place?"

"It's the moon, it's me, and it's my moon. How about it?" He held out his hand to Elmore, "Come on."

I said I would take you away, I said I would bless you forever, I said I would only give you one person.Only for you.

So in my eternal moon, be mine alone.

"Hey, do you know? That's it, I'm going to imprison you."

"It would be a great honor for me if it were you."

"Stranger-Stranger"

He took a deep breath, and the white ball quickly disappeared in the air.The winter in the north is dry and cold, which is better than the south where even the bones are wet and cold, he thought so, and pushed open the door of the apartment.

As soon as he took a step, there was a sudden chill on the tip of his nose.Snowing.He looked up at the gray sky, fine snowflakes were falling one after another, probably, the whole city needs this snow.He raised the corner of his mouth, revealing a subtle smile.Somewhere is empty.

His days passed with great regularity.Go out at what time, catch a certain bus or the next bus, and arrive at the company before what time. Basically, there will be no mistakes every day.But if it's snowing, the car will drive slower, and it should arrive later.It's not a big deal, anyway, the company's attendance has never been so rigid.His regular life is not an obsessive-compulsive disorder, it's just a habit. If he doesn't persist like this, he always feels...he will definitely forget something.

It's really cold.He didn't know how many degrees it would drop again when the snow melted, and which coat he should change into. Thinking like this, he walked forward slowly stepping on the thin snow layer.

Walking to the station, the car arrived soon, and I drove carefully when parking and starting.There were very few passengers, so he found a seat and sat down, looking at his phone.He knew how many chapters of the novel he could read on the road. Anyway, the speed of the car was slow today, and it would be enough to read one more chapter. When he closed the reading software, he looked out the window and saw that he was almost at the stop. He got up and prepared to get off the car.

Just when he walked to the door of the car, he couldn't find the bus card in his pocket. A lot of small change—bills and coins—was mixed with the key, and he
