Demon King Dad

The wind moved gently, and the grains of sand rolled.

Just as the long rainy season will come to an end, the dawn of the next day ushered in a good weather covered by dark clouds, but no wind and sand.

The temperature in the cave gradually started to rise, and the idiot was a little unbearable after being baked, and finally awakened from his sleep. The first thing after waking up is to determine the baby girl in her arms...

"Huh...huh...huh..."

It seems that she needs more sleep.

The idiot breathed a sigh of relief and looked around. The cave was very deserted, except for the extinguished bonfire at his feet, there was nothing flashing anymore.

dream…………?

The idiot looked around again, but still didn't see any living people besides him and the little baby girl.

It seems that it is indeed a dream.

The idiot shook the dust on his body and planned to sit up. But just as he straightened up, something fell from his chest.

That is a pair of shoes.

A pair of shoes made of white fabric and finely stitched with stitches. In addition, there is a piece of paper like a letter.

Who made these shoes?

Thinking of this question, the idiot's mind recalled the girl who was sitting there last night, sewing her cloak stitch by stitch, and she hadn't even looked at her face once.

Isn't it a dream?

The idiot flipped over those shoes and tried to put them on his feet. Just right, very suitable. Compared to his own pair of tattered straw sandals, it was so much more comfortable. Although it looks like a soft cloth, it feels very hard when it is stepped on, and it does not feel cold or hot on the bottom of the foot. I don't know what kind of fabric it is.

After experiencing it for a while, the idiot picked up the letter paper. Of course, it is impossible for him to recognize the words without going to school, but when he glanced at it and planned to give up, Dim Mie on his right arm suddenly spoke.

"This is the message that the woman left for you. She said,'Walking along the direction of the sunrise for another ten days, you will see a city. Although I don't know if it is the country you are going to, I sincerely hope you can take one. The right path.'Hey, troublesome woman."

The idiot glanced at Diane, then looked at the paper. Until this moment, he discovered something again.

There was a shoulder bag where the giant wolf and the girl stayed last night. When it opened, it was filled with all kinds of dry food, drinking water and camping supplies. As long as there are no accidents, it is enough to support ten days' worth.

"Humph!"

Dim Mi snorted again.

The idiot looked at the dry food, put down the baby girl, carried the bag, and picked up the baby girl again. He glanced at Dim Mie on his arm, and suddenly said, "Who is she?"

"Huh? Human boy, if I remember correctly, this is the first time you have spoken to me on the initiative. Why? Are you destined to be deprived of your soul by her beauty?"

"I don't even know what she looks like."

"Hey, boring." Maybe the idiot's too cold attitude made Dimie's interest in taunting him greatly reduced. This sword once again showed an indifferent gesture and said, "Who do you care about her? The problem is not important."

"Well, it's not important."

The idiot pulled up the swaddle to cover the baby girl's face. During the time he was walking outside the cave, Dimming seemed to be unable to bear the loneliness, and said again: "Hey hey, kid. Although you don't know who the woman is, do you decide to believe her?"

Moving, the idiot has come to the entrance of the cave. The sunlight that was not too hot in the morning shone through the clouds. After he was silent for a while, he gently shook his head——

"She has a purpose. Although I don't know what it is. But you don't have to work so hard to kill me."

"Oh? In other words, you plan to trust her in terms of food, distance, and shoes?"

"……………………"

"Hahahaha! Great! How could I find someone like you to be the host? My luck is really great! Well, let's go! Only ten days away, it’s not just a three-month walk in the desert For you, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"No, I won't go."

"Huh? What do you mean? Why did you give you food, why didn't you leave?"

A doubt flashed in the blood pupil, but it was an idiot who pointed at the sun's finger to respond to this doubt.

"Daytime, rest. Night, action. The law of survival in the desert, I dare not forget."

————————————————————————————

The yellow sand is rolling, and the day-to-day wind takes away the sand dunes, and reshapes new hills in another place. The scorching temperature during the day and the icy weather at night make this desert’s "death" worthy of its name.

Feet wrapped in cloth shoes stepped on the cold sand. The night was dark, and only this lonely figure was slowly moving in the desolate dead place. Sometimes, the clouds in the sky would disperse, revealing three slanting moons emitting silver-white light, illuminating the road ahead for him. But more often, he is the only one, groping alone, using those feet to move forward step by step.

Day, day, day after day.

Compared to the previous experience, the ten days at this moment were as fast as a sleep. When the tenth round of the sun slowly rose from the horizon, a scene completely different from the desert finally appeared below the sun.

The idiot's pace accelerated slightly, and as the journey shortened, the originally silent desert began to change. Cacti and hardy and thirsty shrubs grew sparsely, and the sand under your feet began to turn into cracked ground. And more importantly, some scorpions, snakes and other creatures have appeared in this dead land, breaking the ban on the "sea of ​​death".

The sun rose higher and higher, and the idiot's footsteps became faster and faster. But for an instant, his footsteps suddenly stopped and he stopped moving forward.

In front of... is a high cliff. It is so huge and so wide that even an idiot thinks that he is standing under a certain cliff, looking up at the blue sky and white clouds above.

"Huh? There is no city, only this barrier? Ha ha, boy, what will you do next?"

The blood pupil opened, looking at the idiot with interest.

The jet-black pupils scanned the cliff. Soon, these eyes found a bottomless tunnel directly under the cliff. After thinking for a while, he stepped forward without hesitation and stepped into this tunnel.

The tunnel is very long, one hundred meters, two hundred meters...no, it may be a full kilometer long. The idiot held his breath and walked forward in the dark. He held Dim Mi in one hand, and held the baby girl tightly in the other. The hair all over his body was erected because of the warning, ready to deal with any sudden danger!

However, the danger did not come. It is light.

In front is the exit, and light shines in from outside. This light is not as hot as the sun in the desert, nor is it as cold and weak as the sun in Senag. This is a kind of light that feels very comfortable on people. In addition to this light, there were faint waves of music, singing and dancing, and noisy sounds. Apart from this, there is the fragrance of food pouring in from the outside of the tunnel...

The idiot walked out of the tunnel and looked at the scene in front of him. With his cold eyes slightly underneath, he looked at everything he saw in the retina with a little doubt and confusion.

This is a city. A city surrounded by mountains and almost surrounded by such towering cliffs.

This is a desert city, it should be full of scorching sun and sand. But what appeared in front of me was the crisscrossing of the rivers passing through the town, and the fountains in the square kept emitting cool drops of water. People are playing rafting on the river, and women are washing their clothes by the river. The lush plants filled both sides of the street and the balcony of the apartment, the blooming flowers exuded an intoxicating fragrance, making people completely forget that the cliff outside is a dead desert that ordinary people cannot pass through.

The location of the idiot is on the edge of the city, on a small platform on the cliff. After staying for a while, he started to walk down the stairs holding the baby girl. The people passing by him did not report any questions about the little beggar who appeared from nowhere, and each went to their own destination, talked, laughed, or played games.

"It seems that the unique geographical location makes this a city adjacent to but isolated from the desert."

The blood pupil opened slightly and glanced at the towering cliffs behind the idiot.

The idiot nodded slightly, and the stairs under his feet passed several platforms. There are many children of his age playing on the platform, and many adults gather to play card or board games. Looking around, the street is connected below the stairs. From the outside to the inside, the street is fan-shaped towards the center of the city. The closer the building is to the center, the more luxurious and elegant the construction style. In the middle, there stands a towering castle almost half the height of the cliff. Even standing at the position where the idiot just came in, I am afraid it is one or two hundred meters lower than the highest level of the castle.

Idiots don't understand architecture, but the luxury and dignity of the castle still make him feel a little bit. In particular, there are six large and small spheres around the castle, and they are constantly moving in a circle around the castle. It is really eye-opening to be able to float such a big sphere without relying on any support and connection.

However, an eye-opener returns to an eye-opener, and the idiot still understands how he stands here.

He did not come to travel, nor did he come to steal.

The reason why he traveled across the desert of death and traveled thousands of miles from the remote northern country to this southern country was for nothing else. But for...

The idiot lowered her head, and the baby girl in her arms was already awake. Now that she was five months old, she saw an idiot watching her, and a small face immediately smiled. From the swaddle, those little hands stretched out and poked out towards the idiot. Maybe it was because she was too young, and her outstretched hand fell down due to fatigue before long, and she patted the swaddle twice. But soon, the little girl smiled again and stretched out her hand towards the idiot.

"Oh~~~Oh~~~~"
