I knew something had happened to the statue of the Black Rose Queen, but I didn't think it would be this serious. I can't even move in my bedroom! The stitched doll, who was whispering in a melancholy mood, quickly corrected his body.

[Guide me.]

“Yes.”

The dog tightens its head deeply in a rush. Then, when he raised his head again, the dog's eyes stared at Baek Hyun. He bows his head to Baek Hyun once again and turns around.

‘What exactly happened? ’

Following the dog's back, I asked the sewing doll. The sewing doll that flew with its shoulders extended and descended to the height of Baek Hyun's eyes.

[...] I don't know much either. I just heard that there's been a serious problem with her kidneys, and I've been working on it for the last few years.]

You don't know what the problem is? ’

[Yes. Even the Black Rose did not tell me about it. Remember when I first told you about the Black Rose Queen?]

I remember when Shanak first came to Korea, and I heard from a nightmare maker, Chaos Apostle.

When he was asked to go to the territory of the Black Rose Queen together, Baek Hyun asked several questions to the sewing doll. The decision maker of nightmares was an old friend of the Black Rose Queen and not a relationship used by the Black Rose Queen. I can't tell you what happened to the Black Rose Queen, and I can't tell you the reason for her silence, perhaps because of an oath made by the Nightmare Decider himself.

[Now that you're here, I can tell. Yeah, I swore I wouldn't tell anyone about her condition for the Black Rose. But I didn't even know what exactly happened to the Black Rose Queen.]

Listen to the sewing doll and look around. The gardens beyond the gates were all dead. I wondered if the flowers were once beautifully blooming, but now I enjoy death without a blooming flower.

[I've been here before.]

The sewing doll sitting on Baek Hyun's shoulder murmured.

[This castle, Rose Dum, is the most beautiful castle in the horse-drawn world. The owner's name is the Black Rose Queen, but Rose Dum's garden was beautiful with a variety of roses.]

‘I can't say that even empty words are beautiful right now. ’

[... yes, it is. I don't know why this happened. I wouldn't have let them, not even the castle. I came to Rossdam in Abyss, but the gardens and castles were still beautiful.]

It has turned into such a misery in recent years. Following the instructions of the dog, he crossed the garden and paused in front of the entrance to the castle. The door was not smashed like a glottis, but as shabby as it was easily broken, so was the appearance of a castle.

“That's all I got. ”

The dog bowed its head and said, The guide who will take his place opens the gate. Baek Hyun's reign in the memory of the armed forces was but a new guide was revealing who he was in the first place.

“Thank you for your visit. ”

'Knight‘, one of the three titles of the Black Rose Queen. ’He wrapped his whole body in black armor according to his name. Even the face did not appear to be covered with a helmet, but the glare gleaming from the inside of the eyehole of the facial covering did not seem normal.

‘It's going to be pretty strong. ’

Among the monarchs, Yeon-ryun was said to be the strongest. An opponent whose soft luck was not easy to power. In other words, Baek Hyun is as strong as he was when he first fought with the old Yeon-ryun.

Not now, of course. Even though it had not flowed for a year, Baek Hyun's power was several times more advanced than when he fought Yeonyun. The knight who greeted the sewing doll looked at Baek Hyun. He bows his head deeply on one knee.

“I know it was rude not to ask you to come here. Thank you so much for coming. ”

It was full of courtesy, not because I was with the sewing doll, but because I truly appreciated the visit of Baek Hyun. Baek Hyun shakes his head in excess of politeness.

“I didn't come right away, but you don't have to do that. ”

“No, you didn't come very late, that's enough. ”

I was worried that being a famous cannabis king might be something of a black trick, but the attitude of the ruling people contained an unmistakable eagerness.

That's when I get curious. What the hell happened to the Black Rose Queen, and why did she want to meet with Baek Hyun? The inside of the castle was not as bad as the outside, but it was miserable. Fragmented walls, broken pieces and torn drawings. I guess I couldn't do the repairs on my own.

[The appearance of sanctuary is a mirror that shines the power of rapidity.]

The nightmare maker murmured.

[It's not irreparable, it's irreparable. Fixing the sanctuary is pointless if the rapids are weakened. I'm going to ruin it.]

After climbing the high stairs, I arrived in the hallway of the top floor of the castle. Every time I walk in a shabby corridor, I hear a squeak. The sound was mixed with the sound of the knight's armor choking. The only lights, the candles, were not blowing, but the wind was shaking and even the sound, so I felt the sound that something was going to happen.

- Hook.

Something happened, but it wasn't surprising. At the end of the corridor, where no one was, someone appeared in the shadow of the wall. The last remaining slave, the 'maid'. ’A maid in a user's outfit had a keyring on her wrist. The maid walks out of the shadows, sticks her hands to her belly, and bows her head.

After the same greetings as the dog and the knight did, the knight returned to the hallway where he had come. The maid became the new guide and guided the group. The maid picks a black key from the keyring on her wrist. There was no door on the wall that blocked the end of the hallway, but she pushed the key into the wall without hesitating.

“Your Majesty.”

A door appeared on the stone wall as the key was half-wheeled.

“Your guests are here. ”

The door slowly opened. The maid who went in first told him in a quiet voice.

The landscape in the room was very different from the one I had seen before. In this shabby and savage castle, it was this room that had at least a normal appearance.

Bedroom.

Ten people were covered in thin tents with huge beds that seemed like they could be reclining. There was no flower in the bedroom, but there was a subtle rose scent. I wanted to spray a perfume, but I didn't feel that artificial.

I see someone beyond the tent. The woman who was lying in bed until just before was slowly raising herself. Slow movements were not due to spare time. Just, it seemed like it was hard to even raise a body.

“Don't be rude. ”

It was a powerless voice. The Black Rose Queen, who is still invisible, scratches her hand at the maid. The maid hesitated for a moment, but reached out to the call of the Black Rose Queen. The maid approaching the bed reaped the curtain.

[Ah...]

The sewing doll sighed.

Sitting powerlessly in the middle of a large bed, the Black Rose looked like a dying sick woman. A cannabis king who once ruled the horse-drawn world.

I couldn't recall that splendid past, but I was so weak. Seen from the memory of the spirit, she was wearing a rich fur garment, but now the black rose queen was wearing a thin lingerie cape on her shoulder. The spiny vine that bent its limbs was rebuilt, but it did not feel very threatening.

The Black Rose Queen seems to be the weakest monarch Baek Hyun has ever seen.

“It's time to meet. ”

The Black Rose stares at Baek Hyun with a blink of an eye. The dark circles beneath her eyes were making her look more vulnerable.

“Sure. I'm not too late, am I? ”

“No, it's neither late nor fast. ”

The Black Rose said with a calm smile.

“When I first asked you to come to this castle. I was too impatient. If you had come to this castle at my request, it would have been very difficult. ”

“Why?”

“I would have shown you what I didn't want to show you. ”

I couldn't understand it. Don't you want to show enough now? On behalf of the humming Baek Hyun, the nightmare maker moves forward.

[Queen.]

“Eel. You're looking very cute. ”

Looking at the upcoming sewing doll, the Black Rose opens her arms with a smiling face. ‘Eel.’ It is the name of the enemy who was human before the decision of the nightmare became swift. After hearing that name for a long time, the body of the sewing doll trembled. After hundreds of years of human transcendence, it was only the Black Rose Queen who called her by that name.

[... I can't help it. I can't come here on my own. More than that, Queen.]

“I thought we weren't that distant from each other. Was it my illusion?”

Jim said he was cold, but he didn't look like he meant it. Even so, hundreds of years would be a foolish relationship if the nightmare maker knew he was human.

[...] Serras.]

The sewing doll sighs for a long time.

[What the hell happened? In just a few years, why did Rossdam, no, you go like this?]

The shoulders of the maid who was bowing to the question trembled. It was an inevitable question. As long as I came here to meet you, I had to hear the answer to that question.

Since it was a question I expected, the Black Rose was not embarrassed. The smile I was just building changed a little. It was a smile mixed with the repentance of the past that had already been committed.

“Because I coveted the power that didn't fit in the bowl. ”

The Black Rose said slowly. She twists her shoulders slowly. It was a tempting gesture, but it was not intended to be tempting. It's just that even doing that little gesture is full. The Cape that covered the Black Rose Queen's shoulders flows. The maid who saw it swallowed her breath and went forward, but the Black Rose shook her head and stretched out her hand.

“Your Majesty.”

“It's okay. You have to show it to make sense. ”

The maid chewed her lower lip. The stitched doll standing on the bed watches the black rose queen without a word. Baek Hyun also focused on the Black Rose Queen.

All the way back there.

Ever since I confronted the Black Rose Queen. Baek Hyun was feeling strange. A reluctant and obnoxious... something unfamiliar about such a subject. I feel like I've been through it once or twice. Sometimes it is. I know for sure, buried in a lot of memories over time. When I accidentally encounter something like that, I feel like I'm not unfamiliar and not clear.

It was the Black Rose Queen who was giving the feeling to Baek Hyun. I can't tell with my eyes. I feel reassured. However, as soon as I tried to look reassured, Baek Hyun stepped back a few steps without even knowing himself. My insides are shaky and disgusting. My head flutters and my heart grows. Hotly dampen lips with a flowing nose of zucchini

I tried to see it, but I can't. There was a terrible coexistence with the Black Rose Queen.

“Don't try to overdo it. ”

The Black Rose, who was moving slowly, said to Baek Hyun. Baek Hyun, who stole the nosebleed nosebleed with his hand, looked up and saw the Black Rose Queen.

“Do you know what I see? ”

“This is the first time I've met you, but I know your eyes. It's the same eyes as gummy hee. I don't know if you and gummuhee call those eyes moor, but I've been through the same eyes before. ”

“Did you fight with gummuhee? ”

“No.”

The Black Rose shakes her head with a fluffy smile.

“The owner of the cannabis system had those eyes. He called his eyes" Agor. "With that almighty eye, the master of the cannabis machine was able to observe a vast horse-drawn rod. ”

The master of the cannabis system. I'm talking about drinking. The sewing doll looked surprised, and Baek Hyun was embarrassed. The peace that the Swordsman gave to Woo and Woo to Baek Hyun resembles that of Drinkin.

[Don't worry, I've never heard of Marcin's eyes like that.]

“Of course you will. Even I was challenging the drink, because I heard it directly from his mouth. ”

The protagonists we met on the lineage were a mixture of demons and humans. Seeing that he didn't say anything with Uza's peace of mind, he seemed to be hiding his Agor thoroughly.

“... is this the origin of the snow you drank? ”

“Well, I don't even know that. Masin's Agor was like the eyes you and gummuhee had, but that wasn't all. ”

Cape flows down. The shoulders of the Black Rose Queen, once ruled by the Magical Cannabis King, were so twisted that they could not recall her glorious past.

“Marcin didn't have Agor, he had a lot of Maan. It was not enough for all of them to rule with a single loser, and it was Agor who made it especially difficult for me. Because of this, when I first found out about the eyes of gummuhee, I wondered if she might be of Drinkin's family. But I felt that gummuhee had nothing to do with the drink. ”

Baek Hyun thought it was a good thing. Even if it is crossed, I am reluctant if the comfort I use is from the drinker.

“Your eyes, of course, are darker than those of Gummuhi. Don't try to penetrate me with those eyes. Not because I'm offended, but because I'm doing it for you. ”

Her shoulders move. The Black Rose takes a hard sigh and grabs Lingerie's shoulder strap. The maid closes her eyes and turns her head.

“I don't know about the drink, but even gummuhee with brighter eyes than yours shouldn't dare try to penetrate me. ”

The lingerie descends. Sarah blushes her red face at what will happen afterwards and covers her eyes. It's bare breasts that Sarah hasn't even shown herself yet. Sarah had no intention of letting Baek Hyun see the foreign woman's breasts while she was watching, unless her eyes were drawn or burst.

That was Sarah's situation everywhere. Baek Hyun avoids the blindfolded hand of Sarah and grabs her hand. I didn't know why Sarah did this, but Baek Hyun wanted to see what happened to Queen Black Rose's body.

“With that eye that keeps me looking at the invisible. ”

Even in the village in front of her eyes, the face of the Black Rose was not fluttering. She looks down at her body with her eyes full of regrets.

“You'll be swallowed before you even understand what it looks like. ”

I feel bad.

Shanak's eyebrows are twisted. He raises his hand and stops his mouth. Understanding and dealing with death is necromancer. Shanak was the apostle of the nightmare maker who reached the rapids with his black magic, but what Queen Black Rose showed him was more horrible and disgusting than all the deaths he knew he was going through.

It was Sarah who felt that way. Sarah stands there and looks at what the Black Rose Queen showed her. The reddish face turns pale as the blood sprouts. His lips slowly widen as his eyes shake as he loses focus. Baek Hyun hurriedly grabbed Sarah and held her in his arms. Sarah, who was awake in Baek Hyun's arms, was surprised.

It is swallowed before I even understand it.

It was as he said. It's just like watching, if you're relieved to see what you don't need to see without being seen. Seeing the deep without consciousness, it became apparent that it would be swallowed.

I think the Black Rose showed me.

Her body was black from underneath her clavicle. Very, very black. At first glance, the black ink was painted to the chest and stomach, but the darkness that covered the body was swallowed up to flexion. It was as if the space itself had become dark and was devouring her.

[... that's... what the hell?]

The decision maker of the nightmare asked in a groaning voice. One day, the main self of the nightmare maker came down. In response to her alarming gaze and questions, the Black Rose smiled bitterly.

“You already know, why do you ask so badly? ”

The Black Rose Queen's hand moved. She sweeps through the darkness that covers her body with her fingertips.

“This is the source fragment. ”
