Chapter 777: Chapter 645: Clothes Hanger_2

When Little Fool saw the abyss-like, unfathomable depths of Farosa’s eyes, she felt her spirit and soul completely submerge, her demeanor gradually becoming tame and cooperative.

"Where is Dad now?" Little Fool asked calmly.

"In my memory," Farosa pointed to her head.

"Will he come back?"

"When he thinks his work is done, he will leave on his own. It seems now, he has taken longer than expected, such dedication. I hope he can patch up my memories to be a bit more beautiful," Farosa murmured.

"Patch up memories?" Little Fool didn’t understand.

"I have a quite unfortunate past, far more tragic than your childhood by a thousand times. Do you understand, Xu Cheng? My father was a rogue, my mother suffered his abuse, and I silently endured it all until I had the capability to leave the village on my own. I then put an end to my father’s tyranny and my mother’s despair. From that moment on, I resolved to grow strong enough to implement my will, to ensure that anything I wished for must be accomplished," Farosa spoke softly.

"So Dad is... patching up memories... fixing everything?" Little Fool tried to ask.

Farosa slowly nodded her head.

"Memories are like rivers, but my grasp of the power over memories is very limited, apart from letting him enter the river of memories, that’s all I can do. However, I know that with his skills, he will surely be able to rebuild a wonderful childhood for me, and take good care of my mother, giving her a time of peace and happiness," Farosa sighed.

Little Fool gradually realized that Dad wasn’t destroyed, but enslaved by Farosa. Wow, poor Daddy, he must be running around in Farosa’s memories, too busy to stop.

"What were you like as a child? Like me?" Little Fool pointed at herself.

"I would never imitate the sounds of animals, nor would I play those boring games like you. I was always poised and refined from a young age," Farosa lied.

"I’m still worried about Dad," Little Fool snapped back to reality, pondering why Dad hasn’t returned yet. Could the world inside the memories be fun?

"Do you remember just now, when you knocked on my door and I didn’t respond? That’s because I was communicating with the Forest Master, whose mastery over the power of memories surpasses mine. I asked it to trace back through the past and observe Xu Yang’s movements, to catch up on his latest progress. It returned in an instant, only saying ’It’s just like him,’ before disappearing without a trace," Farosa frowned.

"Mm-hmm!" Little Fool nodded vigorously, it seemed like there shouldn’t be a problem.

Farosa observed Little Fool, reaching out to push away the black strands of hair on her forehead.

Little Fool was growing up day by day, and it was extremely miraculous in Farosa’s eyes. Previously, to Farosa, Little Fool wasn’t much different from a loofah, but now she wore decent clothes, had beautiful black hair, and fair skin. When Little Fool grew up, she would probably possess a figure and appearance that would make other women envious.

"We should get to know each other better," Farosa said.

"Yay!" Little Fool suddenly felt a lot more affection from Farosa, and thus opened her arms, staggering towards her.

At first, Farosa wasn’t quite accustomed to, but then she also opened her arms and embraced Little Fool in her arms.

After dispatching Xu Yang into the river of memories, Farosa herself couldn’t help but recall the terrifying experiences of her own childhood, as well as the increasingly haggard image of her mother and her tender, loving expression.

This is why Farosa had to have Xu Yang revise the past, as every time she thought of her childhood, she couldn’t help but burst into tears. In such a state, how could she maintain her emotional balance?

As long as Farosa had any weakness, she would be vulnerable to attack, for which she needed to reach a state of mental invulnerability.

"Let’s go, before your father comes back, we need to finish the work he left undone. What have you and he discovered?" Farosa embraced Little Fool in her arms.

Little Fool sat on Farosa’s arm with a somewhat panicked look.

Farosa, as terrifying as a monster, now seemed as peaceful as a mother. It was clear she was acting this way because of her worries, and once this period passed, she guessed it would be back to killing on sight.

"Check the databases in Yibei City, the local records!" Little Fool recalled the adventures with Xu Yang, those civilizations and relics buried deep underground.

"Turn on the machine." Farosa instructed Little Fool to power it up.

"This is Daddy’s machine, only Daddy can turn it on. This one is mine, for you to play with." Little Fool handed her child’s tablet to Farosa.

Farosa gave a slight smile, stood up, and hung Little Fool onto the coat rack.

"Wuuu——" Little Fool stretched out hands and feet from the coat rack.

Farosa sat on the chair, connecting to the local database of Yibei City using Little Fool’s child’s tablet, and started reviewing the information.

With Farosa’s current secondary deity-level learning and browsing speed, the only limit to her absorption of information was the screen refresh rate.

The information on her screen whisked by like a waterfall, the data flipping up and down at lightning speed, but Farosa was able to fully absorb and digest the contents without any delay.

As Xu Yang said, the local records contained many aspects of local customs and masked history, too rich for ordinary people to peruse in entirety. Only someone endowed with a Digital Mind or an extraordinary spirit could search for clues within these historical fragments.

Farosa reconstructed some secrets from blurry historical accounts, ballads, documents, ancient objects, and records of relics.

"’Guardian of Winter, Keeper of Daylight’." Farosa read out a name, "This was the Corpse Dragon’s name in life, Guardian of Winter, Keeper of Daylight... The ancient civilization of Yibei City... Dongsheng Country."

She furrowed her brows; the Guardian of Winter, Keeper of Daylight, the Giant Dragon, was once revered as a protector and sacred being of this land, but now it had been revived into a skeletal monster by the core of the frost mist. According to the unearthed murals and relics, there once existed a civilization named Dongsheng Country on the Northern Archipelago, where Yibei City is located.

It had a certain connection with Idith, the Reincarnated. From a mural image that dated back 7,000 years, Farosa saw a very evil figure which was definitely Idith. From her own era, he had been hunting Mystics all over, a sworn enemy of the Witches.

Now that she herself had become the Witch Goddess and repelled Elride’s offensive, gaining a brief respite, it was time to prepare for battle against Idith.

If it weren’t for the vast land of Xia separating the White Elephant Continent and the Northern Archipelago, Idith might have already launched an attack. Understanding this ancient civilization could be of help in the eventual battle with Idith.

"You’re coming with me." Farosa took Little Fool from the coat rack, held her close, and left, meanwhile signaling to Snowball and Wolf Girl in the corridor to follow. They watched Little Fool being taken away, powerless to help.

"Wah wah——" Little Fool reached out to the void, Daddy, save me!
