Saiki slowly opened her eyes,

She finally knew why she felt unbearably cold.

She was lying on the cold ground,

The pitter-patter of rain was hitting her face.

"The content of this experiment is a simulation of real events,

It is purely fictional,

If there is a similarity,

It is purely coincidental. At this point,

I hope that the mission taker will work hard to complete the mission. This reminder ends here.

The trial officially begins! "

Saiki struggled to get up from the ground, but she found that her hand hurt so much that it seemed that she could no longer lift it.

She could only cover her hand and turn over with all her strength.

Now the cold rain was hitting her face hard, so cold that it even hurt a little.

She squinted,

But there was cold liquid rolling down her eyes — not tears,

It was just the cold rain in her eyes.

The next moment,

A lot of strange things seemed to rush into her head,

It made her feel flushed,

Because this feeling was familiar,

Just like when she was in Sahiin.

But now she didn't even have the strength to cover her head,

She just wanted to faint.

Many scenes flashed through her mind,

With previous experience,

She could already connect most of the plot this time.

The cold fishing village.

Summer was a short joy,

Everyone had a smile on their faces.

They went to the river to play happily.

People in autumn had the satisfaction of wealth and ease on their faces,

But they were always a little uneasy, and they didn't know what they were guarding against,

Or waiting for something.

In the winter, people's faces lost their expressions and colors. In the cold winter, people's faces were gray and had lost all warmth.

They were numb, cowering in their shells, fearing the cold night.

They were fearing the baptism of ice and snow, fearing the cold river that froze them — their only source of life.

It was a particularly cold winter of the year.

It was particularly cold. Ignorant people were afraid of everything and hated everything.

They were afraid of the sun — the sun that provided the only source of heat was the only god in their hearts.

They hadn't been out for a long time because of the blizzard. The mountains and rivers were frozen, and no one could catch a fish. Death seemed to have become something that they had to face every day.

So they hated the cold. They hated the winter.

That was the devil they could blurt out.

They feared power, but at the same time, they hated it. They yearned for a mediocre and peaceful life.

However, the heavens seemed to like to joke around. They hated the cold, but this place was the source of the cold. No one knew when it started, but there were people who could control the frost and cold rain here.

It was a gift, or so they thought at first.

It was a girl. She did not fear the cold, and seemed to be no different from the other children - most children who feared the cold did not survive their first three winters here.

The children here basically had to wear a single linen garment to survive the entire winter. The secret was to move more, but not too much. Ordinary families could not afford to feed children who would starve quickly.

But gradually, they found that the girl was different.

The temperature of a girl's surroundings was always different.

In the summer, she was surrounded by children — because it was particularly cool around her, and because of her unique magic tricks, she was the child's joy, their center of attention.

In the winter, there were fewer children around her. Some of them could no longer come to her. The cruel cold had taken everything away.

Some of them gradually realized that she was different from the rest.

He gradually began to move away from her.

It was a warm winter that year. Even so, the high fever and hunger were still with everyone.

But with her, no matter what the situation was, the children could play happily in the snow.

With her team, the snowball fight was always the winning side.

She was still the center of attention for the children.

But there was one year.

This year was particularly cold, and the girl's uniqueness was gradually revealed.

People often said that they saw her freezing the warm river in the summer.

They saw that she seemed to freeze a sunflower to death.

Some even saw her holding an icicle with a ferocious look in her eyes.

That year, she was fourteen years old, and it was time for her to face the problem of marriage.

The village chief's son seemed to be interested in her — although she was so different, the village chief could not persuade his son.

But it seemed that she did not agree. She seemed to have someone in her heart.

Their family's rejection was a hint — trampling on the village chief's face was a symbol of their pride. From that day on, everything was different.

She was a beautiful and intelligent girl, and she was a kind child.

In the past, people always warmly thanked her for her help. But now, everyone was suspicious of her intentions.

The rumors were not the result of a day.

All the girls, the girls who were jealous of her, began to make up lies about her from a long time ago.

They were jealous of her, jealous of her innate ability, and hateful of her title of "Winter Goddess".

So many lies seemed to condense into a rope overnight, tying her neck tightly and even making her feel strained.

But this kind of strain was not what she thought for a while.

Her family background and her parents' property were hated by others. Those who were envious of her changed overnight.

They thought it was just a temporary problem, but they did not know that something more terrible was waiting for them.

What was particularly unforgettable was that the winter of that year was particularly cold. It was the coldest winter they had ever experienced.

Because they had no money to buy coal.

Why was that?

They only remembered that their family's business had gone bad, and the rumors in the village that their family was arrogant and looked down on others became more and more intense.

And they did not know why their business always encountered accidents, and this year they had no money to buy coal.

They hoped to survive the winter like in the past — but this winter was too cold.

Her mother could not hold on — she had always been in poor health.

So some people saw a house full of frost and snow. She walked out of the house with the frost and snow on her back. Some people saw their mother frozen to death inside, like an ice sculpture, and their daughter's face was still covered with frosted tears.

The winter of that year was particularly cold, but she was the only one who was not afraid of ice and snow. People often saw her walking against the ice and snow, holding rare game and live fish.

Wherever she was, there was ice and snow.

People gradually understood that.

And the long winter's cold seemed to be spreading.

Wherever she was, it was particularly cold, and people knew that.

They began to persuade her father to leave — sooner or later, he would be killed by her, who had already turned into an ice demon, just like how she killed her mother that day.

Her father had tears in his eyes and shook his head desperately.

But even the oldest elder in the village said, "You don't know … She must be a demon, the incarnation of an evil — demon —

Wherever she is, it is particularly cold! "

The father shook his head desperately and argued that his daughter was not a demon. She had been well-behaved since she was a child. It was impossible, absolutely impossible, for her to be what others said.

"She has grown up and revealed the complete body of a demon. She is a real demon.

She killed your wife and brought you bad luck. It is your disaster, our disaster. We have to get rid of this disaster! "

The so-called "demon" was actually easy to kill. She was in labor — without the company of her unknown lover, she was easy to kill.

At that time, some people felt hot blood in their hands and realized that they seemed to be wrong. "She is a human … Blood is warm, she is a human!!!"

There were also some people who refused to accept this reality. "Wake up, it's just because this child — this child is a human, so she has to turn back into a human form!"

Some people sneered, "Do demons also have maternal love?"

The child grew up, not because of the so-called adoption, but because she was not afraid of the cold. She grew up under the secret care of several people.

Her appearance was the best, but no one was willing to get close to her, and no one was willing to love her. The greatest kindness they had done was to have a loving mother and father when she was a baby.

She seemed to know everything. She seemed to be just an ordinary person. She didn't want to know those things, but her intelligence had already made her understand everything.

She didn't have the slightest ability, and she felt lucky.

But it seemed that this power had begun to awaken recently …

She was afraid of the power that came out of her left hand. She wanted to destroy her hand with the power of the outside world, but the fracture didn't seem to make this power disappear.

She was in pain, so Star Saiki was in pain.

Star Saiki was her, and she was now Star Saiki.

Star's mind was in a mess now. She couldn't tell what was real and what was fake. She couldn't even tell which part of her was the real her.

She only knew that she was in pain now, so painful that even her brother's face began to blur in her mind.

She suddenly missed the person who had hugged her when she fainted. Although the person wasn't that strong, he had been comforting her. His arms were so weak, but she felt so reliable.

She didn't seem to be in so much pain, but now that the hug was gone, she began to feel lost.

Who was it???

Whose hug was it?

She didn't have parents. By the way, where did her brother come from?

Who was it?

Was it an illusion?

Hug, whose hug was it?

Was it a child?

Wasn't she also a child?

Wasn't she also a child? But why did she know so much?

Who was she?

Was she the current her? Or was she the ice witch from before?

Then why was there someone hugging her?

Such a weak but reliable hug. Who was it?

It was a boy. A boy who looked beautiful but always had a straight face. Who was he?

She must know his name. But who was he?

Who was he?

Who was he!

Who was he!!!

She suddenly felt that there was something in her head that was about to come out.

She seemed to see something. A boy with a seemingly cold face and slightly red eyes seemed to have some tears. He gritted his teeth, hugged her, and kept running back.

Seeing this scene, she suddenly exhaled. It was Sasuke. Sasuke Uchiha, her classmate, her friend, her disciple … her …

She was — Star Saiki!

She was not the ice witch, nor was she that orphan.

She was Star Saiki.

She was not the kind of person who would resign herself to adversity, who would only hide and not dare to face reality. She would only hide from others, avoid problems, and choose to silently hide.

That was not her. She was Star Saiki!

"Congratulations, user of the Chubby System, you have passed the trial!

You have passed the Inner Demon Trial. "

Inner Demon Trial?

At this time, Star Saiki had recovered her consciousness. The scene that she saw in the trial seemed to fade in her mind in an instant, and it was not so real.

"Ice and snow?" This ability was very similar to a certain someone …

Was it Haku?

Was this the story of their clan?

Could it be that her fear of reality and the unknown future had long been ingrained in her heart?

No. She, Star Saiki, would not be afraid anymore.
