God's Palette

There was a musty smell in the attic, and a lot of sundries were piled up. Chenin Blanc searched through it. Only straw and bags could give her a rest.Bai Chenan misses her soft bed and pillow embroidered with peonies that she could touch not long ago.She sat on the straw, hugging her knees, full of grievances.

There are no windows in the attic, but there are gaps where the sky can be seen.That piece of free blue sky is the place where Chenan Bai had soared not long ago.

Chenin Blanc picked up the silver coin containing the soul of Barbera hanging on her chest, and touched the forget-me-not on it.

"Am I going to die?"

Chenin Bai's small voice echoed in this attic.

"Killed by someone I don't know...and people from a different era...inexplicably...."

Talking to herself, she thought of the movies she had seen, those people who were tied up with ropes and burned to death, maybe they would have the same fate.These wings can do nothing but fly, and she has nothing but these wings.

Can't break the wall, can't resist the adults, the powerless self.

It was raining outside.

The raindrops were blown into the attic by the wind and hit Bai Chenan's face. She wanted to pick up the thing placed next to her to keep out the wind and rain, but she didn't have the strength to pick it up.In desperation, she left the straw bed, hid in the corner of the wall, sat on the cold floor, and watched the wind keep sending in raindrops.

After a while, she suddenly heard a knock on the door.

——"It's me, Wiz."

There was a small sound outside the door, followed by the sound of the lock being unlocked.The tightly closed wooden door was slowly opened.A face appeared through the crack of the door, it was Wiz.With sadness and regret all over his face, he looked at Bai Chenan who stood up.

"I'm sorry... I will go to persuade Dad, please be patient... this—"

Wiz handed over a piece of white bread, handed it to Chenin Blanc, closed the door with a worried face, and hurried away.

It seems that we can only hope that Wiz can persuade his father and tell everyone that he is not a bad guy anymore.Chenan Bai broke off a small piece of bread and put it in his mouth. It tasted rough, and it was different from the bread he had eaten in his memory, but it had the taste of wheat.

Halfway through eating, Bai Chenan rubbed her eyes, thinking that since she can't do anything, she should sleep for a while.So, leaning on the corner of the wall, hugging her knees, and listening to the continuous sound of the rain, she quietly fell asleep.

I don't know how much time has passed.

--boom!

A dull sound of thunder, as if it was about to shake the world, awakened Bai Chenan from his dream.She opened her eyes wide and looked around in panic.It turned out to be thunder, and she breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the shower had turned into a storm unknowingly. The intense rain and occasional thunder made the attic feel precarious.

Suddenly, Chenan Bai heard a roar.

This was a sound she had never heard before, and it was duller than thunder, but there was no doubt that it was made by some creature, and it sounded a little angry.Braving the rain, Bai Chenan walked to the window, and was surprised to find that there was a huge animal hovering in the sky.

"Wow, that's amazing..." Bai Chenan became a little excited instead: "The world is really big."

In reality, though, it's not that much fun.The hovering guy has huge wings and is very ferocious. In short, it is a giant eagle with dragon-like wings. It is probably as tall as the tower of this castle, and the entire city square cannot accommodate it.

Suddenly, the huge eagle stopped circling, flapped its wings vigorously, and flew straight down at the speed of a shooting star.It flew through the whirling wind, and even the part of the attic near the window was shattered just by passing.Bai Chenan was lucky to escape, but the storm hit her directly, which made her very unhappy.

Bai Chenan stretched out his head and looked outside, only to find that countless people who looked up in the rain were scared by the sudden dive of the giant eagle and fled in all directions.However, the giant eagle didn't grab them with its claws, and flew up again just before landing, probably because it felt that these buildings were too hindering its flight.

With the flapping of the wings, the strong wind blew away many people and buildings. Although the city was destroyed by a block, fortunately, all the people who were blown fell down and got up again.

Bai Chenan found it more and more interesting, and when she was about to go out to have a better look, there was a sound of scolding from the residential area.

The white-haired old man dressed as a clergyman came out, and the people around him looked at him with great respect as if they saw a savior.The old man held up a book he didn't know about, and moved his mouth at the giant eagle, but his voice was too small to cover the sound of the rain, so that Bai Chenan could hear it clearly.

"Chanting a spell!" Bai Chenan blurted out with certainty: "The old magician fights the monster!"

Bai Chenan was looking forward to the flame that the old man would use in the next second to burn the rain and the giant eagle together - but, things didn't develop that way.

Behind the old man, a group of troops slowly came, among them was Wiz's curly bearded father whom he had seen before.They held bows, and under the command of the old man, they shot arrows at the circling giant eagle sparsely.There is no magic, which makes Chenan Bai very disappointed.

Bai Chenan rubbed her eyes, only to realize that her eyes seemed to be farther away than before, which is really strange.You can see people far away from tall buildings, and you can also see the patterns of giant eagle feathers clearly.Bai Chenan thought about it carefully, it seemed that this would save a lot of trouble, so she gave up worrying about it.

The bows and arrows on the ground couldn't reach the giant eagle at all, Bai Chenan was getting more and more disappointed, since there was no magic flying all over the sky, only such a troublesome big guy, just in case, let's take this opportunity to escape.After all, for Chenin Bai, the most important thing is to find the traveler.

Bai Chenan took down a rose that was wet by the rain, and held it in her hands. She spread the familiar pair of wings behind her.

The sky was covered with dark clouds, but her own wings were still bright and white. Chenin Blanc proudly waved his wings, put the flowers in his clothes pocket on his chest, set off from this small attic, and flew towards the lightning sky—— Just walked away like this.

When passing by the giant eagle, a very dull voice suddenly sounded, and there was no need to distinguish it, knowing that it was greeting him——

"You... are you, a god?"

"...I, I'm not, uh... I borrowed it, bye."

Bai Chenan waved her small hand, wanting to leave, but was stopped by the giant eagle that circled to the front.

"I don't intend to hurt these people, I just want to get back what they took away, can you help me?"

Bai Chenan was a little scared to be asked by the giant eagle, because this guy's eyes seemed to be half as big as himself.

"I... I'm in a hurry, I'm not a god, I'm just passing by!"

"Please—I'll pay you back."

Being so begged, Chenan Bai gradually discovered that the giant eagle's amber eyes were very clear and beautiful.If it had wanted to, the city would have long since ceased to exist.

Bai Chenan thought for a while and asked it: "Can't you get it back by yourself?"

"Yeah... as angry as I am, I don't want to do the same thing as them, they hurt me and I'm not going to fight back by hurting them... Please help, they stole my pup ..."

"Wow, so old-fashioned..." Bai Chenan smiled wryly: "Okay... Well, well, I'll go down and ask for you, but I can only fly, if they want to harm me, can you help me ?"

"Of course." Giant Eagle promised without hesitation.

Bai Chenan flew down slowly, and only then did she realize that everyone on the ground worshiped her, even if there was dirty rain below, everyone in armor, fancy clothes, dirty clothes, and ordinary clothes were equal Kneeling on the ground, he stretched out his arms to Chenin Bai, as if praying.
