The magician of the fairy tale world

Aurora calmly raised her sword and stabbed the giant dog biting her.

Her swordsmanship is superb, even better than the top swordsman in the kingdom. Everyone who sees her use the sword will praise it as the best swordsmanship.

These two dogs are bigger, stronger and more ferocious than the first dog, but Aurora is stronger than them after undergoing training.

The cold sword light flashed under the moon, and within a few seconds, Aurora defeated these two terrifying monsters.

The two dogs dragged their bleeding bodies and fled.

The blood they shed dyed a street red, turning bread baking workshops, alchemy workshops, luxurious hotels, and people's homes red; the blood merged into the river, so the river also turned red.

From then on, the royal capital had a street full of red houses.

The soldiers ran and ran, running wildly on the streets under the moonlit night.

"Huhuhu, I'm exhausted. Let me run away. I should get rid of that monster, right?"

The soldier recalled what had just happened, as if it were a dream.

What a beautiful girl that is, why is she so scary? he thought.

Temporarily out of danger, the love and desire that had been forgotten due to fear surged up again. The soldier suddenly felt that he should not run so fast or so far. There was even some urge to turn around and go back.

"Maybe that girl can still communicate? She is the most beautiful beauty I have ever seen. As long as I can be with her, that would be great."

Just when the soldier thought he was safe and slowly stopped, a hemp rope on the street suddenly came to life, swooped over and tied him tightly.

The hemp rope seemed to have been given life, twisting like a snake, and no matter how hard the soldier struggled, he could not break free.

…

"Quite an outstanding performance. If you can defeat those three dogs, you are already a warrior who can stand alone, Aurora!"

Rhine emerged from nowhere and applauded Aurora.

He didn't catch the soldiers in advance because he also wanted to verify Aurora's growth with his own eyes.

However, there was no joy of victory on Aurora's face.

"Teacher, is the story told by the strange man just now true? Is the kingdom really cursed?" The blond girl wiped the blood off her face.

Rhine nodded slightly:

"Yes."

This is something that Aurora must be told sooner or later.

What really worried Rhine was that the soldiers said that the hostile neighboring country, Ender, was ready to make the truth of the curse public.

Fear is a more terrible weapon than the sword. If people know that the country will perish in a few years, the whole kingdom will definitely be in chaos, order will no longer exist, farmers will give up farming, and soldiers will not be willing to fight. Ender can take the opportunity to plunder everything.

Aurora sighed with regret again:

"It's a pity that the murderer who almost killed Granny Rosa escaped."

"No, I arrested him, and he will get the justice he deserves." Rhine said.

As he spoke, Rhine looked back at the hotel room.

On the floor, the badly injured and wailing dog had disappeared - it was obviously still alive, but it was missing, as mysterious as it had appeared. It will only appear if it is called by the master again.

…

From Rhine, the king and queen learned how the soldiers took away their daughters.

They were so angry that they arrested the soldier and put him in a cell.

The soldiers were imprisoned in the prison, which was dark and hot.

Other prisoners in the same cell said:

"Friend, you will be hanged tomorrow."

The soldier was frightened when he heard this. He searched all over his body to find the life-saving tinder box, but found that the tinder box was not on him.

"Oh my God, this is so unfortunate! I remembered that when I was tied up with a rope, the tinder box fell out. It rolled into the ditch on the roadside!" The soldier was desperate.

The next morning, it was bright.

The soldier saw from the small window covered with iron bars that many people poured out of the city to see him hanged.

He heard the thundering beat of drums, saw the king's guards marching away, and saw the king and queen sitting in a magnificent carriage. A large number of people were walking out of the city.

"Even the king is here, and I'm kidnapping a real princess?"

"No way? But the creature I saw didn't look like a human being at all."

"Could it be that the king imprisoned the princess because he didn't want people to find out that the princess was actually a monster?"

The soldiers speculated a lot.

Now, he has become increasingly confused about the truth of the matter.

At this time, the soldier saw through the bars that among the people running out of the city, there was a boy wearing a hood and cloak running very fast. The cloth hood covered the boy's face.

The soldier looks out from behind the iron railing:

"Hey little one, why are you in such a hurry? There's nothing to see until I get there."

He turned to seduce the boy and said:

"If you fetch something for me, I will give you four copper coins. But you must swear that you must run as fast as possible!"

The soldier told the hooded boy that the tinder box had been left in which ditch on which street. The hooded boy ran towards the street where the soldier had lived.

"Please protect me, the tinderbox has not been picked up yet." The soldier squatted in the dark and hot cell, kneeling on the ground and praying.

After a while, the hooded boy ran back, much faster than the soldier expected.

When the soldier saw the tinder box in the boy's hand, he almost jumped with joy.

"Here, here is your tinderbox. Give me your copper coins."

The soldier happily took out the copper coins and gave them to the boy, then put the tinderbox into his pocket.

"Hahaha. My tinderbox is still there, still there! As long as I have the tinderbox and the three dogs, the king cannot execute me."

However, what the soldier did not see was that when the boy walked away from the bars of the iron window and turned his back to him, a strange arc suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth, revealing a smile.

"Your wish has been granted."

A few strands of silver hair were exposed under the hood, swaying gently in the morning breeze.

…

Outside the city, a thick gallows had been erected, surrounded by the king's guards and many ordinary people.

The king and queen faced the jury, seated on two magnificent thrones, in the best position to watch the execution.

The judge loudly sentenced the soldier on two charges:

One is to attack innocent people with a sword, and the other is to kidnap and try to molest an underage girl. The former seemed to refer to an attack on the old witch - although the soldier had no idea how he was discovered.

Soldiers were already standing on the execution ladder.

When the executioner was about to put the noose around his neck, the soldier suddenly spoke loudly:

"I heard that there is a tradition in the kingdom that a sinner who is sentenced to death can make a request before accepting punishment. If it is a reasonable request, his wish should be granted."

"There is indeed such a thing." said the old king in the stands.

"I really want to take a puff of cigarette now. Please, my kind and just Majesty the King, I really want to take a puff of cigarette! And this is the last puff of cigarette I will take in the world. Your Majesty the King will not I will refuse even this request.”

The king agreed to the soldiers' request.

So the soldier put his hand into his pocket, took out the tinderbox, and wiped it quickly several times.

An unstoppable smile overflowed on his face.

The soldier saw the future, yes, an extremely beautiful future:

Three dogs would jump to his rescue, one with eyes as big as a teacup, another with eyes as big as a mill wheel, and yet another with eyes bigger than the first two combined. They may have been injured, or they may have magically healed. But wounded or not, they are terrifying, powerful monsters.

Those dogs would pounce on the judge, jury, and king's guards, bite off their legs, bite off their noses, throw them into the sky, and throw them more than ten meters high until they all fall into pieces.

The king and queen will suffer the same fate. He could choose to let the dogs eat the king and queen, or he could choose to spare their lives if he wanted to show mercy. People will praise him for his kindness.

The surviving guards and the people around him would fear him, support him, and take him into the king's carriage, with three dogs guarding him beside the carriage. He will become the new king of the country.

As for the blonde girl who didn't know if she was a princess ("She's such a horrible monster, but I swear, she's also the most beautiful girl I've ever seen!" thought the soldier), God knows where she is now. If possible, the soldier hopes to re-establish a good relationship with the girl. After all, he is now a noble king, and no one is more suitable to be his queen than that girl. They will hold a grand wedding for eight days and eight nights, and the three dogs will also attend their wedding, their eyes widening wider than ever.

After becoming the new king, he will enjoy himself for two or three years, and then escape from the kingdom with his queen before the disaster of the curse breaks out. He has three amazing dogs that will live well no matter which country they go to.

The fantasy is over.

The soldier's mouth opened, and the sweet dream at this moment almost made him drool.

His eyes were fixed on the tinder box in his hand.

Rub, rub, rub.

He wiped it again and again.

But nothing happened.

Not a single dog showed up.

"Why?"

"how so?"

"Why is my tinderbox malfunctioning?"

The soldier shook violently with fear.

He even wondered if everything he had encountered this month, including the magic tinder box and the three dogs, was just a morning dream, an unrealistic fantasy - just like the fantasy he had just now. Same.

"It looks like your tinder box is filled with water and you can't light it. Let me help you light your cigarette."

The executioner laughed. He took out a tinderbox - the most common, non-magical tinderbox, and lit the cigarette for the soldier.

The cigarette in his mouth lit up, but the soldier's legs became weak and he fell to the ground with a plop.

It was rare for him to tell the real truth - this was indeed the last puff he had ever taken in his life.

The execution proceeds as usual.

The executioner put a noose around the soldier's neck and hoisted him into the air.

The onlookers applauded. The king and queen, the judge and the jury were praised for giving a deserved justice to one of the most deserving villains in the kingdom.

The soldier hanging in the air saw it. Among the people watching and cheering, some of them were friends he had met in the hotel when he was a rich man.

A few days ago, these "friends" were still praising the soldier's generosity in exchange for an extra silver coin as a reward from the upstart.

Apparently, now, his friends did not feel that their behavior was inappropriate at all - because they no longer needed to flatter the soldier.

The rope around his neck was so tight that the soldier flapped his legs in the air.

His eyes were indeed bigger than ever - almost as big as teacups.
