Sleepy.

Just sleepy.

My body was weak, and it didn't work the way I wanted. Overwhelming drowsiness and shaking off his sweet temptations into the world of dreams were so difficult that he fell asleep several times without resisting. I dream every time I sleep, but the contents of that dream, when I wake up, I forget. I guess forgetting is a dream I don't need to remember, but I was curious.

I felt someone said that I didn't need to worry about it, but I was tired of not knowing who it was.

When I clenched my eyelids to resist the sleeper, there was a ceiling I found out about. Fluorescent lamps installed on white painted ceilings remained on. I could be mad at my mother for wasting electricity.

I had a long and long dream.

I think it was a really long dream.

I feel like it was a dream to kill one, but I can't remember the details. It was just a hard, painful dream. I'm sure. That's why the brain refuses to remember.

Exhale slowly.

"Dreams…?"

Something, I feel like I'm forgetting something important.

I have forgotten something very important.

I can't remember.

Even as I tried to remember, I couldn't think of anything, as if it had put a chin in my head.

"What's wrong with your dream?

I looked next to him to the right in a sweet whisper, and he squeaked. A beautiful woman with blue hair was next to him. I guess being in love with her is proof that she's in a trance mood, but he doesn't quite understand. but soon found out about her relationship with herself, and he smiled with satisfaction.

She was one of my favorites and it was only natural to sleep in the same bed. It is also usual for her supple arms to be tangled in the arms of the letter area.

"I think I was dreaming, I can't remember anything"

"... don't you have to remind me?

"Yes, yes. If it's just a hard dream."

Now I heard it from next to my left.

Looking back in surprise, a beauty with red hair looked at him with this equally tranced look. Is it somewhat older than a woman with pale hair? While I was thinking about that, I also figured out my relationship with her. She was also a woman dear to him.

I feel the bed is getting wider at some point, but I guess it's my fault. From the beginning, we were supposed to be in a bed where the three of us could sleep.

"You can forget your dreams."

"In reality, we have to live."

"Reality......"

Rebellion, bewilderment.

What the hell is reality?

Is this dreamlike time really real? Who is the woman with pale hair, and who is the woman with red hair? If I can't remember the name, I don't even know where I met him or why he's with me. All I know is that you two are the important ones.

"Reality"

"What's going on?

"Hey -"

"My reality... what does it look like"

I couldn't hear the two voices anymore because, I'm sure, it must have been a product of my dreams in itself.

The scene changes with dizziness.

Red, red.

Like blood.

Like a flame.

"Die."

I heard him cry, perhaps because he was pressed to recognize reality.

"Not at all... don't even know people's minds"

Maria-Skole stared at Setuna Lars-Enjour's sleeping face with no change.

The midnight hospital room, naturally, has no one but her and the patient. On top of that, without the light of the Demonic Crystal lamp, the moonlight does not penetrate through a completely closed window, forming a world of darkness close to perfection. Complete darkness lies imperfect silence. What you hear is the patient's sleep, and the regular tone probably indicates that his condition is somewhat stable.

It was the night of the eighth that Setuna was brought to the infirmary in a state of imminent death. Then even though two days had passed, he showed no signs of even awakening. The stitched wounds may not be blocked yet, but that's only a matter of time. Time solves it. But whether or not his consciousness would return did not mean that it would work out over time.

"The captain's precious men are in trouble because they have to take your place in your absence. Don't you understand?"

Where I said, Setuna can't even respond. Healthy sleeping faces were the same, and I didn't think of them as their sleeping faces or as summoners of black spears who were so godly and violent on the battlefield. It is a very ordinary boy himself, so much so that we may even forget the fact that he was appointed as a collar uncle. Nothing is more indefensible than a sleeping face, but if you look at that indefensible face, the essence of the person may be somewhat peekable. Oh, I thought so.

Unexpectedly, tension ran on her spine, and she held her breath. Maria, who had seen the battlefield as a military doctor, had never felt this kind of tension. There are signs. I can't hear footsteps. But I found the air moving. Something's approaching us.

Looking back quietly, eyes accustomed to the darkness captured black objects.

"If you don't notice, what died without remembering fear"

The low, creaking voice was emitted by a black object. I have no doubt that he is an assassin. We're going to stab Setuna in the head. Though it may be commendable to have dived this far scratching the strict security of the Royal Palace Guard.

"You won't punish me either."

Maria crushed cold. You can't let Setuna kill you, naturally, as a doctor.

"Shut up."

"I need you to talk to me about it."

"Become!?

Something sounded amazing, and a black object flew to the left and crashed into the wall. I recognized that by the sound alone, but Maria's memory only had a wall on her left hand, so there's no mistake. Another person stands where a black object stood until a moment ago. It's Cain-Vivre.

"Isn't it too late?

What Maria said was that Cain was supposed to have been waiting in the room as soon as he walked into the infirmary, and he should have noticed when the assassin came in. I wasn't even asleep.

"No way, I never thought an assassin would come in from the front"

"The windows are closed. I just have to come in from the front."

"You did."

Cain, reluctantly agreeing, immediately walked over to the assassin. The assassin, who took Cain's blow and crashed into the wall, apparently passed out and didn't even show signs of moving.

"Two days after the incident...? Should I look at you as aiming somewhat relaxed? His Majesty's enemy sees Uncle Enjour in the way."

Maria turned her gaze to Setuna as she heard Cain strip the assassin of his figure just by the sound. He still had a smooth sleeping face, and she dropped her shoulder.

"I see... you mean that"

"Huh?"

"This is the servant of the Logner family. This means evidence of direct involvement of the Logner family in the assassination of the Negro."

Could the words Cain told only indicate that Gandhia's political situation would be rough?

Maria remembered the heartbeat.

It was at noon on October 11th that the Phalia and the others returned to Gandion.

The interception unit, which made its return to King's Capital, was praised and encouraged by Leongando at the Royal Palace and disbanded the unit. Each returned to his original department. Faria and the others participated more as "The Lion's Tail" than before, so they didn't have to dissolve it.

On the afternoon of the tenth, the Gandhian army deployed in the Karsera hills, starting combat with the Azark army. The battle ended in less than an hour, and when it came to skirmishes, there was only such a battle as not to be an exaggeration.

You can say that winning or losing has been decided in the first place.

Gandia, the two armies of Azark were forming on two hills, and everyone thought they would cross the night with a stare and welcome the morning. But when a unit of Azark suddenly showed movement and broke the equilibrium, the battle began.

In response to a unit of Azark were the Phalia and the Lion's Tail. The Lion's Tail, with Ruufa acting as captain, showed just how active the lion was. First, Miliu penetrated when he invited the upset of enemy troops with ranged attacks by Ruufa and Faria. Miliu, using his own summoning arm, succeeded in inflicting a great deal of blow on enemy forces, and the pursuit of Faria and Ruufa increased the damage inflicted on enemy forces.

The enemy troops instantly halved, where Gandia Squad bowshots dressed to stab the stomach. With the protruding troops crushed, the remaining two units of Azark floated. By the time The Lion's Tail ran up the hill, all Azark's troops had begun to withdraw.

Phalia and the others fought in pursuit at their own discretion. Successfully drove Azark's army away and, somewhat, cut off its power.

The Phalia and the others joined the main unit, making sure that the Azarks left the Kalsea hills completely. Reported victory. The interception unit then drove off the Calserua Hills and returned to the King's Capital.

The activation of the "Lion's Tail" in Setuna's absence seemed to give some relief to one of the kings capital. Even without Setuna, the Lion's Tail turned out to be a powerful force. Rest assured.

On the road to the royal palace, the Phalia received numerous cheers from one of the kings of the capital. A voice wishing Setsuna a speedy recovery, a voice wishing Setsuna a return, a voice congratulating Setsuna on becoming a collar uncle, a voice delighting in the work of the Phalia's - most of the cheering was all about Setsuna, but that's something I can't help. Speaking of The Lion's Tail, it was a unit captained by Setuna, and everyone in the people knows that Setuna is the trigger for the Gandhian leap. It was inevitable that many voices worried about Setuna, who was about to be assassinated.

"Setsuna, you're so popular..."

Miliu crushed it was on his way back to the battalion building after finishing his report to Leongand.

Faria nodded, but herself, there was something far from real. Because it was her routine to travel to and from the Royal Palace and the Crowd Street during normal times, and in times of war, she was out on the outskirts, unable to realize the high popularity from the people, etc. Setuna's grasping of the hearts of the people of the king's capital is only to the extent that he somehow understood.

The amount of solidarity with Setsuna during the triumph of the Wang du was second only to that of Leongando, where he recognized his high popularity.

The fact that he was stabbed like that and is still unconscious must be anxious for the people.

"You wanted to stop by the infirmary..."

To Miliu, disappointed, Faria opened her mouth remembering that there was.

Setsuna, they moved him out of the infirmary.

"Huh? Why? I mean, where?

I heard an assassin snuck into Setuna's hospital room last night.

"No!?

It is also impossible for Miliu to be stunned. The Royal Palace should have a strict security system. It is normal to assume that there can be no room for assassins to sneak in. When Faria heard about it, she was distracted by blood.

"It means Cain returned the favor, but His Majesty took the matter seriously. If the security system is so bad, it would be rather dangerous to leave it at the Royal Palace."

"Right... right. Yeah."

"So Setsuna was transferred to the Lion's Tail building."

"Er!? So you can always see Setuna!

"Whether we see each other or not, it means we have to protect them."

Faria cautioned as she was stunned by Miliu's premature point. I have trouble being floated and jumped into his bedroom.

"I don't trust Royal Palace Guard. In that regard, the armed summoners of The Lion's Tail deserve credit. Wouldn't you?

Faria could not forget the words Leongand whispered.

"I know!

Faria was relieved that she was naturally motivated or that Miliu's expression was brighter.
