Although he won the first game, Thirteen Xiang's heart sank instead.

…… It always felt like something was wrong.

If it was said that the rotten man deliberately put water on him, but his strange smile made Thirteen Xiang feel strongly uneasy.

Is it because after the victory of the thirteen incense, the rotten man can get more benefits?

Or did He find some clue in His choice?

Sharing a room with the rotten man, Thirteen Xiang felt a growing sense of anxiety and fear.

…… He's obviously not the kind of person who can't calm down.

Just by perceiving the rotten man around, the thirteen incense could vaguely smell the very special aroma. But it would have been there under the tavern, but there were only stones, and he and the rotten man were just vague phantoms. There was no aroma at all, and it was theoretically impossible for him to smell it.

However, the fact is that Thirteen Incense occasionally smells the fragrance that remains in the world for a moment...... However, the fragrance is also fleeting, like an illusion.

Every time she noticed that fragrance, Thirteen Spices would feel a wave of anxiety in her heart.

"Your Highness, then, Dmitry."

The figure of the rotten man disappeared from the opposite side like a phantom, and appeared from behind Thirteen Incense, chuckling and whispering, "Although I didn't say it before...... But I hope you'd better not tell His Highness Annan the details of this game.

"Of course, since I said so. Then you will definitely tell it to His Highness Annan. But the problem is ......"

When the rotten man said this, he suddenly stopped talking.

However, Thirteen Incense already understood what the other party meant.

What He meant...... How can Thirteen Incense be sure that "telling Annan everything here" will not mislead Annan instead?

After all, Thirteen Incense really hadn't thought about it.

And this is what the rotten man specially came up to mention.

But if this possibility was considered, Thirteen Incense began to wonder again - did he already know that "His Highness Dmitry" was a suspicious person, so he was suspicious?

“…… You've got a bad personality. ”

Thirteen incense couldn't help but complain.

Observing his reaction, the rotten man just smiled and said nothing.

The next moment, it's like entering this mysterious space.

Thirteen Xiang suddenly felt a feeling of dizziness...... It was as if I had suddenly suffered from low blood pressure, accompanied by a slight urge to vomit.

He was kicked out of the space.

And his body shook for a moment, and he was immediately held by the hand of winter.

"His Highness Dmitry? How are you? ”

"Where did I just go?"

And Thirteen Incense didn't answer, but asked the people around him for the first time: "Did I disappear here, or did only my consciousness disappear and I fainted in place?" ”

"Actually, you've just been turned into a wax figure."

The husky replied, "And the rotten man is gone." He disappeared later than you did, and he specifically told us not to move your body. ”

"I see......"

Thirteen Incense whispered.

After leaving there, he became more and more sure.

- There's definitely something wrong with that space.

After he left there, when he breathed in the thick scent of the basement again, there was no longer the anxiety that haunted him all the time. The mind also became calm again.

He pulled the husky over and whispered to her, "Be careful...... Always pay attention to your emotions and don't be disturbed by him. In the event of abnormal emotions, the match is terminated. ”

"I understand."

The husky answered with confidence.

But looking at her stupid look, Thirteen Incense became unsure again......

Every time he saw Annan, he was calm and calm, or he looked gentle and steady. can use the body of "Annan" to show such an innocent smile, and Thirteen Fragrance is almost about to sigh "It's worthy of you".

"Well, it's you in the second game...... His Highness Annan. ”

The rotten man looked at the husky with a smile.

"Still that question...... Although I ask you, most of it is useless.

"—What are the three most important elements of being a king?"

The same question as when asking "Dmitry".

Even Thirteen Incense couldn't help but prick up her ears, wanting to listen to the husky's high opinion.

As a result, the husky puffed out his chest with confidence.

"His Royal Highness Annan" said without hesitation:

"—I don't know, I don't want to know, I refuse to answer your question. That's my triad.

"You're not going to force me to answer, are you? Wouldn't it, wouldn't it? ”

Stop, you stupid dog!

Big Boss Annan is watching us from the outside right now!

At this moment, Thirteen Incense's mood was broken.

But the husky's answer made the rotten man visibly stunned for a moment.

From his reaction, it was clear that he really didn't expect such an answer.

- Oh, even I didn't expect that.

Thirteen Xiang whispered in her heart.

"Aha......ha

Immediately, the rotten man laughed.

He laughed so happily that he almost burst into tears. He leaned on the table and laughed until he couldn't breathe, barely straightening up.

"Really, really...... I haven't been happier in a long time. Indeed, it is the appearance of a king, His Highness Annan. I don't know what kind of gift I'll give you in the future. ”

The rotten man said with a smile.

And outside the nightmare, Annan took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.

Annan opened his eyes and smiled helplessly.

In a sense, huskies are really human as they sound......

And in the center of the ceremonial arena, Maria, who was sitting on the sofa chair, also opened her eyes and looked over.

Maria can't directly spy on the progress of their nightmares from the player's point of view, like Annan. But this world has a ritual of forced intervention in nightmares, so it will not be difficult for Maria to "watch the game" with Annan.

If needed, she can even use the "Voice of Heaven" to give tips to the purifiers.

But this is just a matter of snooping into the past, seeing what has happened in the past, and satisfying the curiosity of Annan and Maria. So I don't need it.

"Can they find out anything like this?"

Maria couldn't help but ask.

Annan replied meaningfully: "Maybe they can find out more like this." ”

"I'm just a little worried that the rotten man won't recognize it as a nightmare."

"He already recognized it."

Annan replied.

Hearing this, Mary looked over in astonishment.

She quickly frowned and nodded in agreement.

“…… It's a lot like that, indeed. By the time he said, 'It's probably useless to ask you,' he probably already knew it. But...... When, exactly? ”

"At the earliest, it was when Thirteen Incense chose 3."

Annan replied: "Because Dmitry is a very stubborn man. He had a strong desire to dedicate himself, and it was impossible for him to retreat from that kind of place. It is better to say that the more frightened he is, the less likely he is to retreat.

"In this respect, Dmitry did possess the 'talents of a king', as recognized by the rotpers. After all, only the king has no way back...... As the saying goes, 'Why did Your Majesty descend first?'" This is indeed a kind of royal way. ”

“…… Truly. ”

Maria nodded, "Dmitry is indeed that kind of person. Obstinate. Wooden heads. I also learned not to give up and retreat. ”

And the rotten man confirmed that Thirteen Incense was not Dmitry...... It is based on the last sentence of the doubtful array. It was precisely because the rotten man suspected that it might be a nightmare that he would say such words to test Thirteen Incense......"

Annan said slowly.

Thirteen Xiang may know Annan better, but he is certainly not familiar with Dmitry.

Because Dmitry is not a suspicious person at all.

He wasn't suspicious—his mind was monocore, and once he had made up his mind, it was impossible to doubt himself. And his trust in Annan is absolute.

When Thirteen Incense hesitated, whether to tell "Annan...... It has already been stated that he is definitely not Dmitry.

The real Dmitry simply has no way out.

He risked so much that he ran out with his younger brother Annan to perform this ceremony without even telling his father Ivan. Since he will have such a move, it already shows that he has almost unconditional trust in Annan.

Dmitry will definitely tell Annan everything.

Because he believed that even if there was a trap here, Annan would find out.

If the Husky had played Dmitry, she might have done something similar...... But Thirteen Spices can't trust huskies absolutely. Because he is the one who takes ideas and thinks.

It is this difference that makes the rotten man keenly aware of the "loophole".
