The sky is still blue, and the white swans are still standing noblely, but Heinstein, a castle known as the Neo-swan, has become dead. Except for a girl holding a plush puppy, there is no other life. Any creatures around the castle gradually withered over time. But strangely, the forest behind the castle is still green. Anyone can see that it is full of weirdness, quietness, and there is no creature inside, quiet and terrible. Even if the sunlight shines in, maybe there is no warmth. Here it can be called the Death Forest...

Sicily

"Huhu..., finally got off the plane, Mom, wait for me!" A little boy quickly got off the private plane and ran to the edge of a town. The breeze blew his sky blue short. The boy was Musk von Heinstein. The day and night of running around had already made his young body overdrawn, but his unyielding will made him continue to move forward. His sister's words were still echoing in his ears. It was an unforgettable memory, it was a real and tragic story that would be imprinted in Musk's heart forever. Ω Biqu     Ge

When Musk ran to Heinstein's manor in Sicily, the air here was quiet, and an unknown premonition suddenly climbed up Musk's mind. He subconsciously clenched his fists, his pace gradually slowed down, and walked in step by step. There was no vitality inside, strangely like a quiet forest. The outside of the manor was still good, with a noble temperament, and the houses and clothes were safe and sound; but the vitality inside was gone, and there was a pervasive death energy, dense and undispersed, as if no one had been here for a long time.

How could it become like this? In such a huge manor, hundreds of lives disappeared like this, life is like the weeds in the fields, unbearable?

Suddenly, a huge change was made, one relative after another, one life after another; just like the waves slamming the beach, wave after waves hit Musk's young heart, and at a young age, he witnessed so many deaths; he looked for a corner of his house like a walking corpse, leaning tightly there, as if returning to his mother's arms, tears of pain fell silently in the soil that once gave him extremely warmth, this land, this manor, and the kind and loving mother, a series of things replayed in Musk's eyes, like movie scenes, making him gradually fall into memories.

"Brother, go quickly, ah, no..., I..." Pandora met Musk on the edge of the forest, and she shouted at him with difficulty; an impulse in her mind seemed to devour her brother's soul, and her body was uncontrollable, and a sense of hunger for the soul came from her brain, but how could she hurt her brother? She could only endure this pain alone.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?! I'll help you back!" Seeing my sister's pain, her fair face looked even paler. Musk, who was concerned about her, quickly ran over and asked with concern.

"Hurry... go! I unfortunately opened the seal of the evil god deep in the forest. Here I have been cursed by the god of death. You... go!!! Go quickly!..." Pandora held her breath and suddenly raised her head and shouted. Her face, which was deeply loved by her brother, looked extremely ferocious, her facial features were twisted, her forehead was blue veins, and her eyes were even more eye-catching purple light.

"Ah!!!" Musk, who was running, stopped in fear by the scene in front of him, with a dull expression, his mouth slightly opened, and his eyes stared at his sister who was close at hand, for a long time, unable to leave.

"Go to Sicily quickly. Isn't there still a mother there? I can't leave... Mr. Wagner! I won't take him away yet!!!" Pandora roared with difficulty.

Not far away, an old man ran towards them hard, but in the middle, he kowtowed many times. His clothes were covered with mud, his face was a little gray, there was a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth, his steps were difficult, as if he had become a little older.

"Young master, Miss, please go! The castle is full of disease for some reason. This is a curse, the devil's curse! The master is no longer able to do it, so I will take you to Sicily!" The old man said breathlessly.

"Hurry and hug my brother and go..." Pandora suddenly raised her head, her eyes full of sharp and intimidating light, shining brightly.

The old man was shocked by the purple light in the girl's eyes and was lost for a moment. Then, without hesitation, he picked up the dull Musk and fled to the distance without looking back.

"Sister..." Musk was stunned and finally woke up in the turmoil in Mr. Wagner's arms. He could only shout out loud when he looked at the increasingly blurred figure, his eyes filled with crystal tears. Pandora had already closed his eyes after his younger brother left, and the soil on the ground was wet, "Brother, I'm sorry..."

...

"Ah!!!... No! Sister..." It seemed as if he was in the Nine Netherworld Land. After a long sleep, Muran woke up, gasping for breath, his whole body was already covered in sweat. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Musk lay helplessly on the land of his manor, lonely and helpless... He looked out the window in a daze. Is the night already deep, but he has nothing left. On the plane, Mr. Wagner suddenly died without warning, and the sickle of the god of death came silently; all of this continued to impact Musk's young heart.

Looking back in a daze, a white light suddenly appeared in front of you, outlining a beautiful, noble and kind face. The white objects were cold and warm, familiar and unfamiliar, as if they were physical and erratic.

Musk looked quietly at the white light, his little mouth opened slightly, and his breathing was heavy, "This, is this the soul? Is this the soul of his mother!!!"

Subconsciously stretched out his hand to touch his mother's pale face, as if it was warm as old. The moment his fingers touched, a cold feeling went straight to his mind from his fingertips, like the coldness of the ice cave, like the darkness of Jiuyou, his small body couldn't resist a trembling, but his stubborn fingers still refused to move, and he looked at his mother's face curiously, facing the once loving eyes, but now it became so cold and strange, so cold, and the cold eyes actually made people feel a sense of fear and chill in his heart.

Silently, cold sweat slowly emerged from Musk's pale face, "I have lost everything, what else is there to be scary? If my mother wants me to return to her arms, then what's wrong!" Such thoughts penetrated my mind, making Musk raise his head strongly and look straight at his mother's eye, and the coldness actually seemed to melt bit by bit under the gaze of eyes, just like ice that was heated and turned into water vapor, white air floating and dissipated in the universe. The slowly melting coldness reflected in Musk's eyes, gradually showing a trace of white air, constantly rotating, gradually becoming a vortex. Through this slight white air, passing through the vortex, what you see is the vast universe!

"This, is this the mystery of the universe?!" Musk's eyes surged, and the white face he looked at was no longer the picture of his mother, but became a universe that made human exploration for thousands of years. Although the stars were twinkling, a cluster of nebula seemed extremely bright, constantly attracting himself, and there was a particularly familiar feeling, just like a reunion of old friends who had been away from each other for a long time. The white and cold flames that were beating deep in the star cluster seemed to convey a kind of warmth, calling himself.

The white light slowly dissipated, and the pale face actually had life like a vivid feeling. At the moment of disappearance, the cold eyes and dull faces were filled with warmth, looking at the beloved son, who was quiet, looking up at the stars, and intoxicated with the great way; then, the satisfaction dissipated silently, turned into bits of white light, sprinkled on the earth, and returned to nature...

…Sanctuary…Hara Tower…

Ancient pavilions, retro architecture, European style, and thousands of years of inheritance. Above the pavilions, an old man with white robe and yellow collar, looking up at the starry sky, and holding a little girl wearing a red long skirt, wearing a gauze-covered silver.

"The stars are surging, and the stars are changing. What happened?" The girl looked at the starry sky, pondered and puzzled, turned her head to look at the old man, and asked in confusion, "Teacher, I can't understand."

"There is a barrier of the gods on this earth. The extra-star universe is vast and far away. It is beyond the reach of human eyes, cannot be understood by human intelligence, not with great wisdom, and understand the principles of the universe. I can't see this. I didn't expect that you are a little old, but you have such amazing talents when you change the stars."

"The teacher is praising me again, I'm embarrassed." The smiley face covered with veil and bright eyes like stars all smiled like crescent moons. It was a hint of embarrassment, and it was clearly a very enjoyable look.

Looking down at the bottom, the little girl looked cute. The old man smiled silently, touched the girl's long and dotingly, and said, "The long night, stars suddenly appear, the vast universe, stars are twinkling; nebula is dense, and stars are setting off." Then the old man stretched out his hand and asked, "Look, what is the constellation of that nebula?"

"Yes. Cancer!"

"Then, what else did you see?" The old man asked softly at the constellations that were brighter in the starry sky.

"Hmm?!" The girl looked at the nebula and tilted her head. After a while, she blinked her eyes again. Her little face, which was made of jade, was a little confused, and her eyebrows were slightly frowned. After a while, she turned her head and looked at the old man, saying, "This Cancer seems to be a little different from what is described in the holy scripture."

"What are the differences?" the old man pursed his lips and said with a smile on his face.

"This, the Holy Book said, "It's not as bright as this one." The girl said slowly, and then pouted and looked at the old man.

The old man looked at the girl's expression and laughed softly, saying, "Let you read the Holy Book carefully. You always think that the book is too thick, the words are old, the language is awkward, and the sentences are difficult to understand. Don't forget that the Holy Book is a thousand-year inheritance, from the mythological era to the present."

The girl glanced at the old man and nodded pretending.

The old man shook his head and said, "Near the δ star in the center of Cancer, you can see a small white mist, which we call "corpse accumulation qi". The sacred text describes it: "Like a cloud but not a cloud, like a star but not a star, just see qi." Until Cancer appears, you can observe more carefully on this astrological tower. It turns out to be a star cluster, called "ghost star cluster". The members of this star cluster have more than 2oo, 52o light years away from us; but if you appear, there is something wrong there."

"Isn't the white fog too thick and dense, which is in sharp contrast with the brightness of the constellations." The girl said intently looking at the white fog.

"This is not a question of whether it is thick or not, whether it is dense or not. I have to go and see it myself. No matter what the changes are, Cancer appears. I am in the twelve palaces, and I cannot ignore it, not to mention that this matter is of great importance." As he said that, the old man rose up and walked away. Although the person was far away, his voice floated back. "Yuri, take a good look at the article of the twelve palaces of the Holy Book, and I will check it when I come back."

"Tsk~" The girl looked at the direction the old man was away, and stuck out her tongue mischievously, and hummed in dissatisfaction.
