…… I still tried it out.

In the ritual part of the "Three Secrets", the bearer of the name "Ingrid" and "Frederick" are secret lovers.

And then Ingrid seems to have died of something later.

And Justes still has a crush on her?

…… It turns out that this is not the seventh class, but the Watergate class?

- Is it Brother Daitu?

But it seems that depending on the situation, "Rin" at least was not killed by "Kakashi". Otherwise, Justes would probably not have been so polite to Frederick......

But why a secret lover?

Annan frowned slightly.

It's because ...... Melvin's house?

As a member of the Melvin family, he is especially a notoriously gifted teenager, second only to Eugene Melvin's direct bloodline in the priority of succeeding to the "god of earth".

Frederick's marriage problem, I'm afraid he can't have the final say.

According to Annan's understanding, the Melvin family is a pure-blooded wizard bloodline - anyone with the surname Melvin will undergo a talent test before birth. If you don't have a wizard talent, you will be defeated before you are born. And the Melvin family will only marry other wizards and continue to purify the bloodline.

Like the girls who marry outside and the teenagers who are married, their next generation is almost certainly a wizard. With a little education, if you don't fall from a nightmare or erode too much and disrupt your promotion and evolution, you will definitely be able to advance to the silver level.

In Nightmare: The White Tower, Annan has seen the most outstanding achievements of the Melvins.

Eugene Melvin.

He was the first to think that "Master Michelangelo may not have died in the White Tower". He even knew from the beginning that Michelangelo, as the master of the tower, could actually leave the wizarding tower.

Michelangelo, on the other hand, had to communicate with Eugene Melvin in advance to allow him to enter the ceremony...... At that time, Annan thought that Michelangelo was jealous of him and killed him. The purpose is to prevent one's own ascension ritual from being disturbed.

Yes. Eugene Melvin, the silver-tiered man, has the ability to interfere with this ritual that spans several years.

But looking back now......

…… I'm afraid, Eugene volunteered to cooperate with the Man in the Mirror.

Because Michelangelo really can't really kill him without using spells. This is undoubtedly an extremely risky and low-return operation...... But Eugene Melvin did die.

But as the next generation of the head of the Melvin family, this didn't even arouse the anger of the Melvin family?

How is this possible?

Now add to this the strange example of Frederick...... Both from the introduction of the mission and from Justes's words, Annan could tell that he knew nothing about tragic writers and was not interested.

How could such a person become the "wolf professor" who caused chaos in the Duchy of Winter?

This nightmare is full of a sense of disobedience.

It's like you've forgotten something important.

But Annan couldn't remember it......

“…… Wait a minute. ”

Annan said softly.

At this moment, Annan's footsteps suddenly stopped.

Because the surroundings are gradually fogging.

Justes also immediately stopped, raised his right arm and motioned for Annan to hide behind him.

…… This fog is outrageous.

Annan thought to himself.

- I'm afraid it's not going to be a boss.

Annan raised his hand and patted Justes on the back, hiding his figure behind him slightly.

Or rather...... Because of the obvious height difference between the two, Annan photographed a position close to Justes' midfield.

“…… Someone? ”

"The shield that never falls," Justes asked softly.

His left hand silently gripped the throwing axe at his waist - yes, his weapon was not a shield, but an axe.

"Be careful."

Annan whispered.

He saw a red figure appear about eighty meters in front of him.

Yes, red, and highlighted—

Marked by his spell "Angel's Left Eye", a tall red humanoid:

[Angel's Left Eye: Attached to the left eye, no maintenance cost, cannot be removed]

[When someone is ready to betray you, they will be immediately highlighted in your field of vision and will be 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 Annan's extremely complicated expression was not seen by Justes.

Because Annan saw it very clearly-

Opposite him, the enemy who triggered the spell "Angel's Left Eye".

His silhouette was exactly the same as that of Justus standing beside him.

The next moment.

A scorching red spinning axe, tilted at a forty-five degree angle in the air, roared—

Like lightning, the axe bypassed Justes in front of him and approached Annan's head in the blink of an eye.

- Sure enough, the boss is Justes, I guessed right.

That was the first thought that crossed Annan's mind.

- This MT is a piece of shit.

It was the thought that popped into Annan's mind when he saw that Justes had not reacted at all—or rather, as if he had not seen the axe at all.

- There is a smell of wine on this axe.

It was the last thought that popped into his mind when the axe was extremely close to Annan.

There is no pain whatsoever.

It's just that when it was close to his eyes, Annan's eyes suddenly went dark.

“…… Well? ”

Annan sighed softly and slowly opened his eyes.

He didn't die.

The moment he opened his eyes, he noticed that he was sitting at the table. It's like what you look like when you were in school...... Lying on the table with his arms folded, he fell asleep on his arms.

He could even see red marks on his arms.

This slender arm looks like a minor......

Annan looked up and looked around.

It's like a library, but it's not big...... At least not as big as Zediheta. There were also some people around, all teenagers.

Behind him was a girl with long dark blue hair who had arrived in a hurry.

She noticed that she had woken up, and in some disbelief she made a crisp and joyful voice of inquiry:

“…… Frerell? You're awake! ”

The girl looked to be at most fourteen years old.

Looking at Annan, his expression was very concerned, and even a little ...... Adore?

Is this Ingrid?

"Ingrid?"

Annan pretended to be a little sleepy, rubbed his eyes, and asked unconsciously.

"That's amazing, Freel!"

Ingrid did not make any strange moves towards Annan's temptation.

She just lowered her voice and exclaimed, "You actually woke up from a nightmare by yourself!" ”

"Ah, it's okay......"

Annan muttered.

His heart moved.

Nightmare...... What nightmare?

"I'll help you go to the professor for help, and the professor will come over in a moment...... You'll have to explain to him that you're really in a nightmare. ”

Ingrid said bitterly to Annan.

Before "Frederick" could respond, he heard a rather energetic voice:

"-Frey!"

Annan followed his gaze and found that it was a hedgehog-headed boy about sixteen or seventeen years old with a somewhat unyielding hairstyle.

He stepped forward and happily patted Annan on the shoulder: "I knew you bastard was fine!" ”

"......"

At this moment, Annan suddenly felt a slight pain in his shoulder—a slight pain filtered by Annan's curse.

That incomparably familiar location made Annan immediately recognize his identity.

This is...... Justes?

"Justus, what are you doing!"

Seeing that Annan suddenly let out a cry of pain, Ingrid looked at Justes dissatisfied: "It's not light or heavy!" ”

"Ah, sorry, sorry, Frey! I'm happy ......"

Young Justes touched the back of his head a little shy and embarrassed, and then his eyes lit up: "I'll treat you to a barbecue, Frey!"

"I heard that I recently bought a batch of high-quality beef from the country, and I have wanted to eat it for a long time! Let's go together! ”

"Ah, then go eat it......"

Hearing about eating meat, Ingrid was a little moved but a little resistant: "I don't like meat very much. ”

- This is a lie.

Annan keenly captured her thoughts.

Are you afraid of fat?

He took a deep breath and looked down at the book in front of him.

The books are as dark as stone and engraved with dark gold texts.

The title of the book is ...... "The Law of Similarity and the Prophetic Dream".

…… Dream?

In Annan's mind, a term suddenly came to mind:

- The gap between dreams and dreams!
