Baek Hyun looks at the Dragon King and turns his head. He didn't stop the Dragon King at the end. ‘’ Fortunately, King Dragon decided to do me a favor, but I couldn't trust him.

I don't know what Pure St sent Drave out for. No, I didn't even know how Drave was alive. At that time, Baek Hyun apparently ‘killed Drave. ’

I don't know how to use the Dead and Resurrected Drave, but once you leave it to the Dragon King. Baek Hyun approached Sarah who was waiting a long time ago.

As soon as Baek Hyun approaches, Sarah leans forward and sniffs her nose and smells Baek Hyun. Baek Hyun looks at Sarah with a trembling face. Then I lifted up my arm and smelled myself. I didn't feel the smell of stars because I became accustomed to my own body.

“... do I smell? ”

“I don't. ”

Sarah frowns and stares at Baek Hyun once, then snaps and turns. Baek Hyun hurriedly followed Sarah's back.

“I'm not pinched. ”

I didn't even ask, but Sarah said that first.

“Really?”

“I'm not pinched. I don't know if you ever kissed that dragon girl again, but you didn't. If you want to make a decision, you have to tell me. Do you understand?”

“What if I get hit suddenly? ”

“You say it like you're expecting it? ”

“That's not it, you don't know it's the world anymore. ”

As she pretends not to know, Sarah turns her head and stares at Baek Hyun for a moment. She shook her fist and said,

“Then we should report it. All of a sudden, it's sexual harassment. Isn't it?”

“Call the police? ”

Baek Hyun once imagined that King Dragon was handcuffed and in a police car. Sarah grabs the white man's wrist as she turns into a humping fart.

“If you think you're a molester. I don't think so. ”

“Hmmm.”

“You don't even have a jijo? ”

“You're lucky enough to get to Jizzo...? ”

“Okay, I'm an idiot for saying this to you. ”

Sarah snatches Baek Hyun, grumbling as if she wanted to hear it. The two entered an area where the sanctuaries were mixed. The closest one was the Iron Blood Bow. Baek Hyun recalls Rai Lung, who was entrusted with the protection of the armed forces. Rye Lung would have known that Yong-seong's army was dead. Then there is no reason for the armed forces to protect Ryu Lung, but Ryu Lung is still not coming out of the Iron Blood Palace.

Sanctuaries have been mixed up in this world, but it has not yet been quiet. The spirits who ‘eroded’ the world with the sanctuary remained equally silent without releasing authority outside the sanctuary. They also need time to understand this sudden situation.

But silence will not last long. 'It felt like no one had to explain it,‘ he said. ’Every time I go through the sanctuary, my senses tingle. The world seen through the heart was dizzying and violent with all sorts of flows, and the owners of the explosive gaze could see this way in the sanctuary.

It's getting worse.

Baek Hyun's steps slowed down. Sarah, who grabbed him in front of her, turns her head, frowning at the slow pace of Whitehorn.

But I couldn't rush it. Sarah kept her mouth shut when she opened it.

It was like a child coming to the park for the first time. Baek Hyun looked around and smiled. He was genuinely enjoying the explosive gazes that were focused on him. All the rapids beyond the sanctuary are watching 'Baek Hyun.’ It was the first time since I first came to Abyss that I felt the attention of so many monarchs.

But the nature of the gaze is different from then. The first time I went into Abyss, when I passed the tutorial that everybody was doing. All the monarchs of Abyss took note of Baek Hyun. The various reactions that they saw at the time. Curiosity about being first encountered, vigilance about unknown forces, greed that you want to have in your hands to be a part of the family.

‘That was all. ’

The boundary they lit was far from the boundary of Baek Hyun being 'dangerous’. That was natural. Baek Hyun was significantly weaker compared to the rapids at the time. Even though he was the weakest of them, it would not have been possible for Baek Hyun to defeat him had he not lost his rapidity.

‘I was arrogant.’

I was crazy.

Whether it's because it's already been done or because it's now ‘changed’. Baek Hyun knew how reckless and foolish he was then. Lucky for me. It was worth it. If the spirit had been holding fast, Baek Hyun's life would have ended there.

I didn't know him at the time. I knew it well. Even though it was compulsory to enter the Iron Blood Palace, it was Baek Hyun's will to attack indefinitely. Knowing he could die, but knowing he was weaker than a ghost, it was not a surprise.

I just want to fight.

Baek Hyun felt a palpitation of his chest. It took me two years to turn the boundaries of the Abyss rapids into an enemy. They know who Baek Hyun is now. I know what he's been doing for two years, and I know that Baek Hyun is not lacking as an enemy.

"Ah."

Baek Hyun slowly curled his fist.

‘I love it. ’

This place was the best. It was narrower than the vast Abyss, but for Baek Hyun, the jungle was much wider than the Abyss. The size of the earth mass is important. It is important to know what is.

Baek Hyun was grateful to Reverend Heaven.

Thanks to this madness, he came to this wonderful world. Baek Hyun licks his lips while feeling a tingling heat. This contiguous world, mixed with sanctuaries, seemed like a gunpowder that never exploded. Baek Hyun enjoyed the expectation of when this gunpowder would explode.

‘I like it that way, but I can't ask you to go. ’

Sarah clasped her hands. She was quite fond of fighting, but not as much as the pure madness that Baek Hyun felt. What she wanted was for the wild bird to walk along the wooded path with the whitefish, not the creepy jungle.

But, uh...

I wasn't stubborn. I didn't even hug him. Sarah did not let go of her hand, but walked in line with her. That was enough. Walking together, not to be missed. I didn't care if I got ahead, fell behind, hit... Just holding hands, walking together was enough to satisfy Sarah.

‘You're not like me. ’

Leaving strength or character, the essence itself is different. Struggle? It is a common trait for dancers. Madness? So is that. But Baek Hyun's madness is different. If fighting and longing for victory is a struggle, Baek Hyun's madness even swallows up the struggle.

‘It's so different. ’

I'm not fighting someone right now. The monarchs beyond the sanctuary were just watching this side. But Baek Hyun is now in a state of fanaticism that is no different from the time of the real fight. He was now growing into the 'walking' of this mythical world. Seeing the sanctuary for the first time, taking up the enemy of the rapids, and facing it without avoiding him, Baek Hyun's moot was moving forward with his steps. For Baek Hyun now, it was pointless to train the flesh. More experience, a spirit that embraces him.

If his body had progressed significantly compared to two years ago, his mind would have become completely different from two years ago.

“Ah.”

A brighter mind. A more pronounced sense. Baek Hyun turns his head and looks at Sarah in the heat of completion. He chuckles as he feels Sarah's fingers.

“I'm sorry. I thought about it for a second. Are you thirsty?”

“... you know you're secretly audacious? ”

Sarah squeezes her lips out.

I know it's different. I also know I can't do anything about that madness. That may be scary, but it didn't feel weird.

It was just good.

"The beans are on. ’

Sarah and Chimi swallowed sighs.

The Iron Bow of the Ghost, the Cave of the Serpent of Regeneration, the Rose Dum of the Black Rose, the Heaven of Pure Saint, the Infinity of the Blood Lion, and the Dark Tabernacle of the Master.

After Iron Maid's Silver Volcano, Tempest's Death, Pandora at Witend, and Horizon at Highroad.

The angle of the arm of the inverted puncture. In front of him, Baek Hyun paused. In the meantime, all sanctuaries were able to glimpse a little with peace of mind, but it was impossible to even glimpse the angle of arms. Baek Hyun shook his hand at the corner of his arm with a fluffy smile. And in front of it.

There is Pandemic, the sanctuary of the nightmare maker.

I have been formally invited. As Baek Hyun and Sarah approach, the door of Pandemic, which was firmly closed, opens wide. I have been in a relationship with the Nightmare Decider and Shanak for a long time, but this is the first time I have ever met her in person, not her body, before entering the sanctuary of the Nightmare Decider.

The moment I walked into Pandemic.

The darkness has fallen on all sides. Baek Hyun turns his head and looks back. I didn't see the ‘back’ that I just had. I don't feel hostile to the darkness covered. Baek Hyun walks out of the darkness holding Sarah's hand.

One or two lights are on. Yoax lights float around Baek Hyun as it flies. Then the lights aligned and illuminated the way for Baek Hyun to go.

It was the cemetery that the lights led. There were no names on the soaring tombstones. Beyond that, there was the Seaman Castle. Unlike Queen Rose of the Black Roses, it was a castle that would appear in an old horror movie.

“It's coming fast. ”

The grumbling voice draws closer. The light that was hovering around changed shape. Fong, what appeared was an ugly sewing doll I've seen many times. The sewing doll approaches Por 'r and stops in front of Baek Hyun's nose.

“I told you to come right away! What are you doing so late? ”

“Send the wild flowers. ”

“Don't lie. You don't think I've seen it? You were out there enjoying the eyes of other rapids, you interested seed. ”

The sewing doll shoots like that and hits the nose of the white man. Baek Hyun nods while smiling bitterly.

“You're a lunatic, too. Well, I'll compliment you on not rushing into another sanctuary. ”

“It wasn't that crazy. ”

“That's a good thing. If you really rushed in, you'd be dead. ”

The sewing doll whimpers and turns around.

“Come along. I'll show you to me. ”

“Do you really need to see it for yourself? We still have enough conversation. ”

“Hm, I didn't even ask you to come here if you would. You didn't forget, did you? You know, talking to you is usually part of who I am. ”

“That was enough. ”

“No, it's not enough. You have to meet the real me to explain what I saw. I can't stand to be a part of myself without it. ”

“... what did you see? ”

Baek Hyun raises his head toward the sewing doll.

“Ghost water.”

The sewing doll murmured.

“It's also for you. To understand, you have to see for yourself, and if I don't take real care of you, your insane mind will go completely insane. ”

The gates of the castle are open.

All over the castle, the spirits have turned into light, and the shabby undead is floating. They were the servants and stewards of this vast castle. They respectfully bowed their heads toward the Por 'r sewing doll, and did not speak much to Baek Hyun and Sarah. Their will was all under control by the nightmare makers. The decision maker of the nightmare was the most loyal and devoted of all the monarchs of Abyss.

The place where the sewing doll led was the top floor of the castle. The tightly closed door opens wide just by approaching.

“You're here.”

Inside, there was a tired, faced shanac. He was sitting in one corner with a big lobe upside down. A smell similar to an unknown, bloody... smell floats in the room. Baek Hyun saw a magical enclosure full of floors.

“What is that? ”

“A shield to protect your mind. ”

The sewing doll stood at the center of the shield while saying so. She turns around and looks at Baek Hyun. The face of the sewing doll, which should not have a face, moved. The sewing doll smiles like a grin and shoots Baek Hyun and especially Sarah.

“Let us be honored to know that we face a great and fearful being. ”

Bloop!

The body of the sewing doll burns. Shanak turns his head as if he doesn't want to see it. Quarrr! The whole Pandemic vibrated. The spirits who wandered the entire sanctuary bowed their heads.

Baek Hyun went ‘forward’ without even knowing about the massive presence he was attacking. Curiosity, not fear, led his feet forward. Numerous self and soul fragments gather in one place. A ferocious and varied form of death was passed on to Baek Hyun. In a short while, Baek Hyun experienced numerous deaths. It was not a 'killing' feeling, but the death that had already been done a long time ago and the black magic memories that blossomed there.

The Origin of the Decider of Nightmares,

It looked like a huge ‘flame’. So magnificent a soul burns like a flame. The Nightmare Decider trims the roaring soul. Huge souls condense. The flame that was blazing without a clear shape took shape as a 'presence’.

“Self.”

The gaze of Baek Hyun, who looked up to the size of the flame, slowly descended.

“Am I scared? ”

But Baek Hyun stared at the nightmare maker with a trembling face. His eye height was much lower than before, so he was looking down more than usual.

“Well... ”

Baek Hyun pondered for a moment and replied.

“There's a lot of gaps between you and me. ”

The decision maker of the nightmare was looking like a little girl.
