The interior of the mansion was filled with moderately glamorous and understated decorations to create an original and balanced atmosphere.

It's a pretty good interior for Kim Sung-cheol's eyes, which has little artistic expertise.

When I walked down the hallway to the lobby, there was one thing that caught Kim Sung-cheol's eye.

A wooden sword decorated on the walls of the lobby facing the front door.

It looks like a crude wooden sword made of Ash Trees, but it is meaningful to Kim Sung-cheol.

The swords of the wooden sword contain ancient words that are poorly engraved. It means rare courage.

The only third path allowed at the Rutheginia Arena where you can enter and either kill your enemies or die. In other words, it is a token of forgiveness.

As a reward for the terrible battle I fought with Sung-cheol Kim for half a day.

Of course, I received a wooden sword like Kim Sung-cheol.

I lost everything while fleeing from the enemies of the world.

‘I thought I'd never see you again. ’

Rumor has it that even the wooden sword at the head of Crickfried family was burned down during the war at the Auction House after the fall.

Kim Sung-cheol stood in front of the wooden sword on the middle of two opposing steps and watched for a long time.

“Hmm... Maybe it's too weak for you to use? ”

Vertelgia, who did not know that, said bluntly.

“Maybe so. ”

Kim Sung-cheol took his eyes off the wooden sword and climbed the stairs.

After climbing all the stairs with a shiny rail like a mirror, you saw a lot of visits around the hallway with a red carpet.

‘Now what to do. ’

After Kim Sung-cheol hesitated for a moment, Bertelgia grabbed Kim Sung-cheol's sleeve and said.

“Why don't we find a room for the kid? ”

Kim Sung-cheol followed Bertelkia's opinions and went to a room that Krea could use.

While opening numerous visits one by one, Bertelkia opens her mouth.

“That little kid, Kria. What kid?”

“Why do you ask? ”

Kim Sung-cheol asked again, closing the door of an empty visit with nothing.

“Just curious. No wonder you don't want to know who's trying to save your life like a drop of blood with a needle. ”

“Curiosity kills cats. ”

Kim Sung-cheol didn't want to say much.

“I'm not a cat. ”

Bertelkia lays her hands at the sides of her head with the palms of a noble animal wide open.

“Carbunkles.”

“ ……. ”

Kim Sung-cheol's face became stiff.

He was bludgeoned by Bertelgia's sudden flirtation from an unexpected point.

After a while, Kim Sung-cheol who was released from stiffness muttered with a bitter smile.

“... I hate carbunkles. Sky squirrels are a hundred times better. ”

“Shhh! What do the carbunkles want to hear? You can't even get your favorite Fairylight show. ”

Kim Sung-cheol suppressed his lips, thinking it was best to keep his mouth shut in this section because of Bertelgia's restless blindness.

‘He's usually a talker, but he seems to be talking more in the dream world. ’

Kim Sung-cheol hurriedly walked down the hallway. However, Bertelgia is not tolerant of such attitudes.

“I don't think you've heard of Krea yet. Carbun?”

“ ……. ”

If you don't tell me a story, I will continue to follow you and harass you.

Kim Sung-cheol sighed and opened his mouth.

“He was a quiet, quiet boy. ”

“Oh, yeah? ”

Bertelkia straightens her waist, loosening the hand on the side of her head.

“That's all? ”

“You heard the man. It was a different dimension than yours. ”

“What am I? Can you do that to me if I don't have to feed you? ”

“ ……. ”

You can't win with words.

Kim Sung-cheol clammed his mouth and opened his next visit.

It was a beautiful room that looked like a playroom.

Miscellaneous toys, dolls, and a small dog were making eye contact in the animal bed.

Kim Sung-cheol entered the room and gazed carelessly at the toys that were broken on the floor.

Bertelkiah walked in front of Kim Sung-cheol and sat down to touch the toys lying on the floor.

“Hmm. Rich kids are different. Look at all the toys. We played chicken feet. ”

“Chicken feet?”

When Kim Sung-cheol curiously asked, Bertelkia said, holding something in her hand and pulling it.

“You've got the chicken feet left. You're pulling it like this. You're holding a tight ligament. Haven't you tried it? ”

“ ……. ”

Kim Sung-cheol had a bad childhood, but I don't remember playing with it. No, I've never even heard of it.

“Huh? Nothing? ”

Bertelkiah asked again, looking at Kim Sung-cheol's embarrassed face.

“... Is there really nothing? ”

“Nothing.”

“Then what were you playing with? ”

“You're on your own. ”

Kim Sung-cheol headed to the next room.

However, I heard a loud voice as I stood in front of the visit.

Kim Sung-cheol's body was slightly stiff, and he turned around and covered his mouth with his fingers.

The voice that comes from beyond the visit belongs to the Krea family.

I have to be careful.

Later, Chan Bertelgia caught the door hook, knowing why Kim Sung-cheol stopped.

After Kim Sung-cheol had recovered, Bertelkia said in a joyful way.

“Whatever. I don't care if you open the door. This is the third dream. ”

At the end of the sentence, Bertelgia opened the door, and the landscape that was hidden behind the door opened in front of Kim Sung-cheol's eyes.

It was Krea's room.

Next to a small but sunny bed with a mosquito net made of princessy silk, the Kria family gathered for a happy time.

“What are you reading this for? I can't hear you. Can you say that a little louder? ”

Cricket Fried and Liz were next to Krieg, sitting at a small desk, teaching.

Krea grunts and reads a book in front of her desk. She falls back and reaches for the big godson.

“I can't!”

Ryze said in a playful tone, leaning against Kriegfried's shoulders, pulling his tongue.

“My daughter. Your hair looks bad. If she looked like me, she'd read an easy book like this in one day! ”

“If a little girl is too smart, isn't she cute? ”

Kriegfrid holds Krieg lying flat on the floor, smiling furiously and raises him high.

“ ……. ”

It was a very happy family, but it was a heavy sight for Kim Sung-cheol.

He steps back and soon turns around.

Bertelgia was watching all of Kim Sung-cheol's weak expressions with big blue eyes.

But it was time for Kim Sung-cheol to leave the room.

Kriegfrid looks over here, smiling vigorously in his arms.

Kim Sung-cheol didn't see it, but Bertelkia could see it clearly.

When I saw Kim Sung-cheol's side, I could see the smile on Krea's face.

Suddenly, the landscape of the mansion changed.

After leaving the room, Kim Sung-cheol suddenly found that the house was filled with things like smoke that burned something rather than mist.

“ ……. ”

The atmosphere is unusual.

“The world of dreams seems to be shaking. ”

He said as he watched the changing landscape.

“Can we just get out of here today? ”

At Kim Sung-cheol's words, Bertelkia nodded.

It's because I know that Kim Sung-cheol is not in a good mood.

They return on their way to the entrance of the mansion.

“The kid. ”

Bertelkia opens her mouth suddenly.

“Sounds pretty lively to me. I don't know if it's just for my family, but I don't think it's very reserved. ”

“You know, there's no such thing. ”

Kim Sung-cheol felt another fatigue coming.

‘I need to get out of here and get some sleep. ’

But I was walking down the hall.

Kim Sung-cheol and Bertelkia heard a sobbing sound.

The cries of Krea.

It was coming out of a room right next to a staircase going down to the first floor. The door that was closed when I first passed was open.

In a room where a faint sunset gradually turned to darkness between the curtains, the two mothers remained hollow in a lonely silence.

The first dark side found in Krea's dreams.

Bertelkia grabbed Kim Sung-cheol's sleeve.

“Look over there! ”

Kim Sung-cheol tried to skip it because of the overwhelming fatigue.

However, the landscape of Bertelkia's vision of the room seemed to be an opportunity.

Even in the eyes of Bertelgia, a third party, the appearance of the Kria family was impeccable enough to appear to have shaped and transferred happiness as it is.

It is a world of dreams that can come back at any time, but there is no guarantee that this will happen again.

‘Now's your chance. ’

Bertelkia closed his arms in front of Kim Sung-cheol this time.

“Look at that. Sleep later! ”

Bertelgia had an idea.

She knew that Kim Sung-cheol was suffering from the happy life of the Kria family.

I also knew that Kim Sung-cheol was tired now.

But it might be wise to get beaten by a hawk and end it all at once.

“Let's just take a look around and get out of here. Huh?”

Kim Sung-cheol gazed indifferently at Bertelgia in front of him, then vomited a shallow sigh and headed to his room.

In fact, until now, a strange dark atmosphere has spread.

“Maybe this is the doorway to bringing the boy back to life! ”

Kim Sung-cheol was encouraged by the voice of Bertelkia.

In the heavy fatigue, Kim Sung-cheol slowly walked into the room.

The dreadful sobbing sound grew louder and louder.

“Dad... where are you? ”

Kim Sung-cheol knows Crikfried's end.

He was not meant to be, but one of the icons symbolizing Ruettignia was attacked internally and externally and was engulfed in a fierce plot.

As numerous songs rose like bees and lost one or two of his vast fortunes, he disappeared without a whisper.

People assumed he would have killed himself. Following the ancient traditions of lutegineans and old nobles who confess in places no one knows like dragons.

“Now's your chance. Why don't you talk to her? ”

Bertelkia waves Kim Sung-cheol's arm, standing still.

Kim Sung-cheol nodded his head and walked forward.

At that moment, the sinking voice of the woman hugging Kria creak echoes through the room.

“He went to keep his promise. ”

“Promise...? ”

“It's an old promise. So don't worry too much. He's with God. ”

The voice of Raise Heimer.

Kim Sung-cheol stopped.

Subsequently, a cold sinking voice rang out in the room like a night mist.

“My dear Kria. You have work to do. If you were my good daughter, would you do me one last favor? ”

“Please...? ”

Krea asks, stealing tears.

Liz Hymer's mouth opens slightly.

Kim Sung-cheol focused his mind as he felt the fatigue that was holding him back for a moment.

The landscape changed the next moment.

Kim Sung-cheol's group is in a garden with white marble tiles instead of a dark room.

“Huh? Where am I? What's going on? ”

Bertelkia looks around and shakes his head.

“At the right time! ”

However, Kim Sung-cheol's reaction was the opposite of Bertelkia's.

His eyes were full of surprises.

‘This place...? ’

How could I forget?

Home for over a decade.

Although it was surrounded by a dark mist near the smoke, Sung-cheol Kim recognized that it was his house in the first district of Lagranze where he lived.

“Hey! That kid! ”

Bertelkiah points his finger beyond the fog.

Indeed, beyond that, Krea is walking along a marble tile alone.

“Let's follow!”

Bertelkia grabbed Kim Sung-cheol's hand and dragged him forward.

Kim Sung-cheol was drawn to Bertelkia and chased after Krea.

Beyond the fog, Kim Sung-cheol's old mansion stood out.

But it was definitely Kim Sung-cheol's house, but the atmosphere was contradictory to that of Crikfried's house.

If the former felt like a light-filled flower, the latter would have a dark and deafening atmosphere.

Kim Sung-cheol felt an unknown aura echoing deep in his heart, and approached the little girl who was showing more and more lights.

The door to the mansion opened as I approached it.

Kim Sung-cheol saw a man with a strong figure in the open door.

Is that it? ’

A understated elegant suit made from dark blue fabric. Sleek crumbs on the back.

That must be the old look of Kim Sung-cheol.

When I missed being called the enemy of the Empire.

Kim Sung-cheol lifted his gaze upward, feeling a gentle sense of discipline resonating deep in his heart.

I was curious.

His old self reflected in Krea's eyes.

But when he looked up to his face, he faced a scene he didn't want.

The face of a terrifying stone statue rests on the spot where the Imperial officer's face should be.

The moment I saw the face of the statue, which neither laughs nor talks, nor says anything, Kim Sung-cheol stopped moving.

Vertelgia's hands twist the scream without her even knowing it, and she shocks herself.

"Oh my God… how could I…"

There was a reason why Kria didn't wake up, in a place I had no idea of.

The truth is this:

Kria didn't like Kim Sung-cheol.

As I felt tears gushing out from my eyes, Bertelgia grabbed Kim Sung-cheol.

“What are you doing? Let's go. Come on. ”

Kim Sung-cheol was stiff-necked for a moment, but it was not a big deal.

I'm not trying to hide my weaknesses.

I didn't actually feel anything.

I did not feel any sensation, even though I should be sad.

Is it because the child who was trying to save his life after suffering death was the one who hated him the most?

I know that's not the only reason.

Kim Sung-cheol is not that narrow.

Kim Sung-cheol recognized that something important was fading.

‘I'm sleepy.’

The drowsiness that had subsided for a while returned.

*

The Tower of the Hidden.

In front of the book of disasters, there were numerous envoys dispatched from different countries.

There's only one reason they're together.

to confirm the unusual signs and the consequences of appearing in the book of disasters.

It is a landscape that can be seen since the third disaster, which implies the disaster of war, was changed into an uncertain phrase that constantly changes.

A finger popped up from the crowd, as usual, pointing to the Book of Catastrophes.

“Look! The writing has changed!”

Immediately after the scream of the unknown man rang, all the envoys gathered to focus on the Book of Catastrophe.

Under the phrase of the second disaster that had been burned up, the phrase of the third disaster that had changed was fixed one by one.

In silence, people watched closely for a new form of the third disaster that had changed completely.

[There must be only one crown on the continent before the yellow death from the eastern sea touches the ancient pillar. Otherwise, the living will see. The wrath of the true god descends on this earth.]
