Chapter 111 The Gap Between Dreams and Dreams
...still tried it.
In the ritual segment of "Three Secrets", the bearer of the name "Ingrid" has a relationship with "Frederick" who is a secret lover.
Then Ingrid seems to have died from something behind.
And Justus still has a crush on her?
...So this isn't the seventh class, it's the Watergate class?
——Is that you take the soil brother?
But it seems that depending on the situation, at least "Lin" was not killed by "Kakashi". Otherwise, Justus probably wouldn't be so polite to Frederick...
But why a secret lover?
Annan frowned slightly.
Is it because of... the Melvins?
As a member of the Melvin family—especially a well-known genius boy, he is second only to Eugene Melvin's direct bloodline in the priority of succeeding the "God on Earth".
Frederick's marriage problems, I am afraid that he can not decide.
According to Annan's knowledge, the Melvin family is a pure-blooded wizard bloodline - all people surnamed Melvin will take a talent check before birth. If there is no wizard talent, it will be knocked out before birth. And the Melvin family will only marry other wizards and continue to purify their blood.
Like those girls who marry outside and the teenagers who are married, their next generation is almost bound to be a wizard. With just a little education, if you don't fall from a nightmare or disrupt your promotion and evolution due to too much erosion, you will definitely be able to advance to the silver rank.
Annan has seen the most outstanding achievement of the Melvin family in Nightmare: The White Tower.
Eugene Melvin.
He was the first to think that "Master Michelangelo may not have died in the White Tower". He even knew from the very beginning that Michelangelo, as the master of the tower, could actually leave the wizard tower.
And Michelangelo even had to communicate with Eugene Melvin in advance to let him enter this ceremony... At that time, Annan thought that Michelangelo was afraid of him and killed him. The purpose is to prevent their own sublimation ritual from being disturbed.
Yes. Eugene Melvin of the Silver Rank is capable of interfering with this ritual spanning several years.
But looking back now...
...I'm afraid, Eugene volunteered to cooperate with the Man in the Mirror.
Because Michelangelo can't really kill him without magic. It was undoubtedly an extremely risky and low-reward action... but Eugene Melvin was indeed dead again.
But as the next generation head of the Melvin family, this did not arouse the anger of the Melvin family?
how can that be?
Now add this strange example of Frederick... Whether from the mission introduction or from Justus' words, Annan can analyze that he knows nothing about tragedies and is not interested in them.
How could such a person become the "Professor Wolf" of the troubled Winter Principality?
In this nightmare, there is a sense of incongruity that is not right.
It's like you forgot something important.
But Annan can't remember life and death...
"……Wait a moment."
Annan said softly.
At this moment, Annan's footsteps suddenly stopped.
Because the surrounding is gradually foggy.
Justus stopped immediately and raised his right arm to signal Annan to hide behind him.
...the fog is outrageous.
Annan thought.
——I'm afraid it's not about to have a BOSS.
Annan raised his hand, patted Justus on the back lightly, and hid his figure slightly behind him.
Or to be more precise...because the two have a relatively obvious height difference, Annan's shot is close to the position of Justus' lower back.
"... someone?"
"The Shield of Unfallen" Justus asked softly.
His left hand silently held the flying axe around his waist—yes, his weapon was not a shield, but an axe.
"Be careful."
Annan said in a low voice.
He saw a red figure appearing at a distance of about 80 meters ahead.
Yes, red and highlighted—
Marked by his spell "The Angel's Left Eye",
A tall red figure:
[Angel's Left Eye: Attached to the left eye, no maintenance cost, cannot be removed]
[When someone is about to betray you, in your field of vision, he will be highlighted immediately and displayed through obstacles (so this effect can be used without opening your left eye)]
Annan whispered: "Protect me."
Fortunately, the hood covered his expression, so that An Nanjie's complicated expression was not seen by Justus.
Because Annan saw it very clearly—
Opposite him, the enemy who triggered the curse "Angel's Left Eye".
His stature and outline are exactly the same as Justus standing beside him.
next moment.
A scorching red rotating axe, tilted at a forty-five-degree angle in the air, whistled toward—
Like lightning, the axe bypassed Justus in front of him, and in the blink of an eye it approached Annan's head.
——Sure enough, the boss is Justus, I guessed right.
This was the first thought that popped into Annan's mind.
——This MT is trash.
This is the thought that popped into Annan's mind when he saw that Justus didn't react at all - or, as if he didn't see the axe at all.
——This axe smells of alcohol.
This was the last thought that popped into his mind when the flying axe was extremely close to Annan.
without any pain.
Only when it was close to his eyes, Annan's eyes suddenly darkened.
"……Um?"
An Nan let out a small yawn and slowly opened his eyes.
He didn't die.
The moment he opened his eyes, he noticed that he was sitting at the table. Just like when she was in school... She folded her arms on the table and fell asleep on her own.
He could even see red marks printed on his arms.
This slender arm looks like a minor...
Annan raised his head and looked around.
It's like a library, but it's not big... at least not as big as the Black Tower of Zedi. There were also some people around, all of them teenagers.
And behind him, was a girl with dark blue long hair who came in a hurry.
She noticed that she had woken up, and she asked in a clear and joyful voice in disbelief:
"...Frel? You're awake!"
The girl looked at most fourteen years old.
Looking at Annan's expression is very concerned, even a little... worship?
Is this Ingrid?
"Ingrid?"
Annan pretended to be a little sleepy, rubbed his eyes, and asked unconsciously.
"That's amazing, Frel!"
Ingrid didn't do anything strange about Annan's test.
She just lowered her voice and exclaimed, "You actually woke up from a nightmare yourself!"
"Ah, it's okay..."
Annan muttered.
His heart moved.
Nightmare... what nightmare?
"I've helped you find the professor for help. The professor will come over in a while... You have to explain to him that you've really fallen into a nightmare."
Ingrid said bitterly to Annan.
Before "Frederick" could respond, he heard a very energetic voice:
"—Frey!"
Annan followed his gaze and found that it was a spiky-haired boy about sixteen or seventeen years old with a somewhat unyielding hairstyle.
He stepped forward and patted Annan on the shoulder happily: "I knew you bastard was fine!"
"Fuck..."
At this moment, Annan suddenly felt a slight pain in his shoulder - this was a slight pain filtered by Annan's curse.
The extremely familiar location made Annan immediately recognize his identity.
Is this... Justus?
"Justus, what are you doing!"
Seeing that Annan suddenly let out a burst of pain, Ingrid looked at Justus dissatisfiedly: "It's not light or heavy!"
"Ah sorry sorry Frey! As soon as I'm happy..."
The young Justus touched the back of his head a little shyly and embarrassedly, and then his eyes lit up: "I'll treat you to barbecue, Frey!
"I heard that a batch of high-quality beef from the Church has recently entered the country. I've been wanting to eat it for a long time! Let's go with the three of us!"
"Ah, then let's go eat..."
Hearing eating meat, Ingrid was moved but resisted: "I don't like eating meat very much."
- This is a lie.
Annan keenly captured her thoughts.
Are you afraid of getting fat?
He took a deep breath and looked down at the book in front of him.
Dark-golden texts are engraved on the books that are as black as stones.
The title of the book is... "Law of Similarity and Precognition Dreams".
……Dream?
In Annan's mind, a noun suddenly appeared:
——The gap between dreams and dreams!
