BLACK MOON - Black Magic War Beginning with Jailbreak - [Full story illustration available]

"Why... why are you here? ⁉ And why should Mr. Jake be sacrificed?"

As soon as he saw Belzebub, Bell lost his cool. Now that Bell has forgotten that he can be Leon, he is behaving as usual. Naturally, Leon can't call his brother “Mr. Jake."

"Whoa, Faust. Can I talk like that here?

"⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉\82

And Bell finally realized his demerit after Belzebub pointed him out. With what I have just said, this undercover operation has become a blister of water. That's what I thought. Bell leans down and, regrettably, slaps a quantity of fist on his desk.

"Don't worry. All the great Knights here know you're not Leon Hausent. I mean, all of your manoeuvres were lost."

"The Knights have eyes everywhere and ears. It's pointless to make foolish plans with Kosovo."

Following Belzebub, Gregorio revealed the truth. Before Bell entered the conference room, he found out that Bell was the one who looked like Leon. If what Gregorio says is true, is it to say that the Vinter Chamber of Commerce was already part of the Knights' umbrella? I'm not sure about its authenticity, but I can't conclude if I think about it here.

"Then why were you pretending you'd never noticed?

"That's Faust, because you needed to be here."

"What do you mean?

There was something Bell couldn't solve. If you knew it was Bell who was transforming into Leon's appearance, why was everyone acting like they didn't even know it before? Bell couldn't come up with the answer.

"hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha"

"What's wrong ⁉ə"

"'Cause it's crazy. Uh-huh! You're desperately pretending to be Doctor Hausent, it was super funny ~!

Then suddenly Beatrice April laughs out loud. She stopped having to act and laughed emotionally. For her, Belle's appearance as he tried to become Leon was hilarious.

"Well, let's get back to it. Jake Hausent is just one relative to Leon Hausent. If I knew my brother was being targeted, Doctor Hausent would follow us too."

"I owe him one, too. I can't help but want to kill you, but I'll just hurt you and I'll put up with you."

The Knights had no intention of killing Jake. By hurting Jake, Gregorio was trying to force Leon into holding an organization called the Knights. Belzebub, who holds a grudge against Jake, was just the executioner to hit and follow for the Knights.

I'm not gonna let that happen. I'm gonna kill you right here.

"Whoa, Faust. How much Black Sarteen do you know what happens if you disobey the Knights' intentions?

When Belzebub put his hand on the prestigiously barking bell, the magic of transformation happened to be solved. Here I am now was Belle Quill Faust, wearing Leon's Knights ID.

"... why are you taking sides with humans in the first place?

"I told you. He said it was a match of interest. It would be more convenient to be like this in order to achieve a great purpose."

"I have no idea... I don't know what that means..."

Belzebub has often used the term "great purpose” since he first confronted Bell. In such vague terms, Bell could not have been convinced either.

"Let me tell you the truth just a little bit. The demon Belzebub had a cooperative relationship with the Knights for a long time. It's all for a great purpose… to keep the Black Sarteen in your hands"

"Captain Maris 8265;"

The words were then uttered by Captain Maris, who appeared out of the dark. Apparently, the identity of the man next to Gregorio was Maris.

"My name is Maris January. This is still part of the M-12. And Faust... you were led from the beginning to reach the Knights."

"What?"

Maris January was a member of the M-12.

"You were imprisoned in Verito Prison and escaped with the help of Belzebab. And when you broke out, you quickly reached Wallace's house, which was nearby."

"Wallace? Why is Lili's name coming up? ⁉ ●"

If what Maris says is true, Belzebub will say that he has had a cooperative relationship with the Knights since he was in Verito prison.

"It was this me who hung the“ curse of sleep ”on her mother, Stella Wallace. I deliberately left a fragment of the Black Magic Book (Grimoire) at her house. This is also for collecting Black Sartain."

"Eventually, you and Wallace will be reunited. By that reunion, you knew nothing about black magicians (grigories) and black magic books (grimoires).

As you were led, you reached the Knights. You weren't running from the chase, you were just drawn to you by the Knights. We've come a long way, but you say you fit right in the hands of the Knights, as we thought. "

Finally, the truth of the shock was revealed. The Knights had been taking various measures to attract Bell for quite some time.

Part of it was to hang a "sleeping curse” on Lili's mother, Stella. It was a little roundabout, but by doing so, Bell was drawn to the Knights without questioning them.

"I mean, you're the one who hung Lili's mother on the curse of sleep, right?

"Oh... I told you so"

"Temee... for that matter..."

"Did I say something?

"For that matter... did you have to suffer Lili? You had to torment Lili's mother. ⁉"

Bell, who found out that Maris in front of him was the real culprit who cursed Stella, could no longer contain her anger emotions. Having spent a long time together, Belle knows very well that Lili has worked hard to break the curse of sleep.

"That's what you're saying? Don't make me laugh! You don't know anything. Wallace was a necessary sacrifice. From now on, the Knights create the ideal world. Think about it, there's no such thing as... tiny sacrifices."

"... that it's a tiny sacrifice? There's no way you can accomplish anything without sacrificing it."

Bell gradually sends his anger to Maris, who said it was a tiny sacrifice about Lili and Stella. Bell naturally doesn't know what the Knights are thinking.

However, some of what the Knights were trying to do and what they had done so far included a few incorrect deeds.

"One way or the other, because we don't care about what we sacrifice, we can accomplish a great purpose. You just got out of the world, you don't know anything."

No matter how much we argued, there was no agreement between Bell and Maris; there was too much difference between the two ways of thinking. Sure, Bell still doesn't know much about this world, but he couldn't convince himself of the Knights way.

"It's Faust. Why do you think we revealed our secrets ourselves?

"... why?

"It also has to do with Belzebub saying," You needed to be here. "You're here to be disposed of, just like Doctor Hausent."

⁉ ︎

Gregorio, watching it, opened his mouth as Bell and Maris continued their endless invisible argument. Knights Commander Gregorio and M-12 pretend they don't realize who False Leon is.

And the fact that the Knights have been keeping it a secret here has been revealed.

It showed that Bell would be executed just like Leon.

"You conspired with Doctor Hausent to keep your teeth to the Knights, and you thought you'd be safe? You can't overlook a traitor so much as say Black Sarteen. But you can't lose Black Sarteen."

"What do you mean?

The sin of treason is heavy. But if you kill Bell, the Knights will lose valuable human resources called Black Sarteen. Just like Leon, can he hurt those who are near? That's what Bell thought, he was sweating cold.

"You have to lose your memory. I'll erase any memories that are not convenient to be known from your head. I mean, everything that Doctor Hausent tells us, everything that Captain Maris tells us, everything that's happened here will be forgotten."

"You can't forget."

However, the disposition placed on Bell was unexpected. Sure, that was a convenient way to dispose of it for the Knights.

With the memory of Leon disappearing after Snow Cliff showed up, Bell will continue to work as a Knights member as before. But Bell is not the kind of man who gets his memories erased in silence.

"No, you forget everything beautifully. Captain Dissenber, just erase his memory."

"... Yes"

If Jake's executioner was Belzebub, Bell's executioner was Knight. Indeed, using the power of Knight's dreamer should not be difficult to erase human memory.

"Let go of me, Mr. Knight. I don't think you're convinced of this."

"How much, Belle, is it because you can't miss this treason?"

Bell, who was taken by Knight to leave the conference room, desperately appealed to him to do so. Leon, who has only ever shown a gentle face, has now caught Belle with a cold look.

Are you saying that all M-12s under the command of the Knights are enemies?

Bell desperately tried to unravel Knight's hand, but somehow his body was powerless. Is this also the work of Knight? Bell was being moved through an unfamiliar upstairs aisle while his consciousness was obscured.

The second floor, as far as I can see, is covered in red. Bell and Knight stood in front of a black door as the irreplaceable view continued. In his fading consciousness, Bell was painfully aware of its black door.

"This place..."

As he stepped at the end of the black door, Bell's consciousness was abruptly clear. I guess Knight has been hanging some kind of magic before to keep Bell from resisting.

At the end of the black door, there was a black space. The space resembled the atmosphere of the captain's office and the colloquial room. However, unlike those two, this room was a killing landscape. I don't see any furniture or tools. That's just a space covered with black walls.

"This is the execution room. It's a space to punish the Cavaliers for their enemies."

"Wait a minute. This is wrong."

Knight said so in a cold voice with no discouragement. There are two of them now: the execution room to execute the rebels. The reason this space is a killing landscape is because this is not the place for members to relax or unwind.

"Wrong? Are you saying you know what's right and what's wrong? Whatever it is, you entered the second floor of the no-go. And I even knew a secret I shouldn't have known, so I just had to get punished."

"Is Mr. Knight really going to execute me?"

There's nowhere to look like Knight, who was already sweet. M-12 is a faithful pawn who obeys the will of the Knights Commander, and Knight is the one who binds that M-12. He mercilessly punishes Bell in the interests of the Knights.

"... let me get some sleep"

When Knight gently touched Bell's forehead with his index finger, Bell's consciousness was instantly lost. Lost his mind, Bell falls into the spot and sleeps with a restful expression. If Knight lets you sleep, it's the dream world he rules that awaits.

…………

Expanding in front of the bell, which opened its eyes again, was a black space not very different from the execution chamber earlier. Only one thing that was different was the fact that there was a moisturizing substance pouring in there. Mowdy things like the nebula that make up the galaxy go up over time.

Something like that nebula seemed beautiful, but it also had more and more pressure that made me nauseous when I watched it all the time. This space is starving, and the more its moist, the more distorted the scenery goes.

"Looks like you're awake. This space is not the same as it was during the trial of the door. What drifts there is a“ lump of dreams. "A lump of dreams is a lump of consciousness, memory, and emotion for people all over the world. With the power of black magic, I can connect dreams to human consciousness and memories around the world."

"... what are you going to do?

Looking around for a while, I saw Knight in Bell's sight. He pales and begins to explain his abilities.

Maybe the phrase “the Knights have eyes and ears everywhere” has something to do with Knight's ability.

"And if you're swallowed up by a chunk of your dreams, your memory and spirit will collapse. I'll be left in my dreams forever, and I'll never wake up."

"… ⁉ That's how you're going to keep me from teething to the Knights again..."

Bell couldn't hide his impatience when he found out about the action of the "Dream Block”. If you are swallowed up by a "dream mass” that gradually covers your surroundings, Bell will never wake up again. Exactly, Knight is the strongest executioner.

"But don't worry. I can apply my own rules to this space. Only erase and awaken the memory of your conversation with Leon about the secrets of the Knights, and the memory until you get here. You wake up, you forget everything you just found out, and you live as you always have."

"I don't like that! I have to tell Lili everything I know in the conference room."

After waking up, Bell becomes just a pawn for the Knights with all his important memories lost. Belle really wanted to tell Lili who hung the "sleeping curse” she had just learned about.

"I'll make you feel better."

Bell didn't mind. If we don't get out of this space, they'll definitely erase our memories.

But it was also true that there was no way out of here. Knight rules the space of his dreams. When you're in a dream, it's impossible to go beyond the night first.

⁉ ︎

At the next moment, Bell's body suddenly lost its freedom. The chain, which came from nowhere, wrapped around Bell's arms and legs and wouldn't let go. At the heart of the looming space of the "lump of dreams," Bell was restrained.

Bell desperately tries to escape that restraint, but the more he leaves, the more chains eat into his body. The more raging the rumble, the newer the chains came and Bell's body stopped being slight.

"Forget the futile resistance. The truth is, I don't want to do this either."

"What do you mean...?

Seeing Knight with a suddenly sad look on his face, Bell couldn't hide his upset. Is it to say that Knight is also questioning the way the Knights do it? Whatever (wasn't) there, that statement was confusing Bell.

"Sorry, Mr. Bell. Even I want to help you... but I can't right now."

"I can't do it now?

Is it because it's in a dream where no one's around, Knight had the gentle face back the way it's always been.

That's why Knight will never untie Bell. Bell could only be confused by Knight's words, which contradicted his actions.

"When the time comes, I will always lend my strength. So go to sleep now."

Leaving that behind, Knight disappeared from before Bell. He left the world of dreams.

Only nights that use “Dreamer” can travel freely through the world of dreams. It's only a privilege for Knight, and no black magician (Grigori) can do that except him.

"You're either an enemy or an ally..."

Bell, who saw Knight disappear, had already begun to be swallowed up by the “lump of dreams”. Bell loses all his memories of the Knights' secrets when the cloud of his precipitated dreams covers his entire body.

And when he wakes up, Bell does his duty without questioning the Knights, as always.

Less than a few minutes later, the lump of dreams covered Bell's entire body, and he lost consciousness. Then, for a while, Bell was never freed from the world of dreams.

The chandelier lights are dazzling. Bell meditated his eyes unexpectedly. Having regained consciousness, Bell had no recollection of what he had been doing. I remember being in Rottervania, but Bell didn't remember a single thing since he came back to Knights headquarters.

How long has it been since then? The image of the awakened bell was in the colloquial room on the ground floor of the Knights headquarters. He was on a black sofa and was beginning to open his vain eyes. Around, the view is unchanged from the usual discourse room.

"Hey, Mr. Bell. You slept well."

"I was asleep...?

I woke up. The first face Bell saw was that of Night Dissenber. He took away Bell's memory, Teng himself.

But Bell has forgotten any of that fact. How did you get here and why have you slept like this before? Bell can't remember it at all.

"You must have been tired on a snowman's crusade mission."

"Yes... exorcise the snowman (Yeti) and get the flowers of the moon... then what happened"

Bell was desperately trying to remember what had happened before, but something was covered in his head, and he couldn't remember anything.

Bell had been attacked by a very disgusting sensation. I remember saying I did something after my mission in Rottervania, but I can't recall anything about it.

As Knights Chief Gregorio thought, Bell has completely forgotten the inconvenient memories for the Knights. Will Bell continue to fight and go for the Knights as a Knights member again?
