The mimic told him that she was trying to climb up where she saw him and that light before.While doing so,She thought she had managed to escape from that place,however,"When I open my eyes... the darkness surrounding me... I try to crawl out from that darkness but..."She was tired and fall asleep.And when she wakes up,she smells something nice,"it must be the smell of the blood, huh??""yes...that's why... i try to go there... but... I get caught by you..."Claimed her with her head down.Leon ponders for a moment.'hmm... i guess... because she was alive... she could climb out...'Leon shakes off his thought."Alright... so for your question..."Leon pause.The mimic stare at him waiting.He says,"It's simple... the reason why you're here is that...I save you... after you almost die.. though your situation at the time was also my fault so... you can say... I'm just fixing my wrongdoing..""but... you didn't do anything wrong you know, human...""i didn't???"Leon doesn't und
Leon and Kelt left their inn. They left for the slums.From today until the day of Pahan Kingdom birth, they will be quite busy.Leon had instructed each of his crew on a mission to fulfil his four-goal in this capital.To Roxin, he asks him to find a good shop that sells equipment.Noxin on the other hand will find the store that sells books or any sort of it and also, he asked him to find a store with a mask in it.'i didn't tell him what mask I'm looking for...or what kind of appearance it had except the fact that it must be unique...'Thought Leon as he enters this messy part of the capital which is the slums or also known as an uncivilized area.'that mask... I hope I can find it for my future....'A mask known as the Mask of Prejudice.It's an ancient artefact that is famous as a cursed item among readers. A useless mask that is out of this world and could kill someone the instant they wear it.That's why it
Leon or rather Mikhail had thought a lot about this side character Leon.As he remembers Luis's flashback from before, he decides to ignore it at first. Because no matter what he thinks,everything just leads him to a piece of bad news.But even so, he still thought, what if, what he decides not to care about ends up as a stumbling stone to his life in the future ??Because of that, he seriously thought about it again. And from that one thought, he got a horrible answer for himself. No... perhaps, he already knows this answer but ignores it.The fact that maybe ... in the novel, Leon had already died on the day Mikhail entered into his body.'and if my guess is correct ... to make sure this novel goes as it should ... I have no choice but to 'die' soon..'Haa*He sigh.Sometimes he regrets and wonders,Why would he fall into a human body that was supposed to die like Leon?No, even if he falls into a dead per
The bartender stared at Leon who was still on the piano stage.His mind lingers somewhere else,'In this bar, there's a few types of customer...'Some come for fun.Some come to be alone.Some come for the bar 'speciality'.And this 'speciality' is unknown to most people.However, those who know about this usually will be confirmed through a double-secret code.'the first code to use our 'speciality' was related to the piano...'The piano was located on the left side of the entrance, he as a bartender needs to take care of it to avoid any unreached 'speciality' customers.And the reason he works at the bar counter is also to make sure he can act as a middleman for it efficiently.'that's why... when that dude asks my permission about that piano thing... I'm quite interested..'He felt anticipation regarding it.He thought, finally, someone was here for the 'speciality'.After all, his l
Leon walked in the darkness towards somewhere. His eyes could actually see in the dark but he chose not to see it.At the end of his journey, he could see a curtain that radiated light around it.And at the tip of his ear, he could hear the echoes of someone's voice coming from it.His body then stopped in front of it.'Should I come in ???'He thought a little, hesitantly.He then looked back to ask the bartender guy, however.The man was already out of sight behind him.'He disappeared ?? Or did I walk here alone since the beginning ?? 'He was amazed.From his trip earlier, he could feel that man's presence behind him. However, suddenly the man disappeared.It's truly surprising him a little.Swoosh*The curtain behind him suddenly opened,He looked back with narrowed eyes.The figure of a large man can be seen between the curtain just now.The man looked at him with a
Leon came out of the door he first entered. From there, he saw Kelt nearthe bar counter.Kelt who then noticed his presence got up from his seat and approached him slowly.Leon also did the same.“is it over???”That is what Kelt ask him. But Leon didn't reply at length and just nodded his head.His face was covered back by his hoodies since from inside the path before. Due to that, his expression could not be seen by Kelt.Therefore, Kelt then immediately stated another question to him,“Should we leave then??”But the question was not answered.Leon just turned to the bartender guy.He then tells him a rather confusing statement,“I think you should go to your boss…”“....”After hearing him, the bartender guy's expression then instantly changes.He could guess from what Leon was saying that something must have happened in h
step step step*The sound of someone's footsteps running from the direction of the door covered with the curtain could be heard.That sound is still far away and it's getting closer.'is that Ares??'The occupants of the office each thought that very same thing,They were hoping that the sound of that footsteps did indeed belong to Ares, one of their crew. If that were the case, they would be able to break free from this threatening aura.'Please be him !!!'zripp*the curtains opened swiftly."boss!!!""eupp-!!"Ares's shout then echoed inside the office.At that moment, their bodies, which were still stiff and shaking in the meant time, finally,plop*Loosening by themselves.Eddy's body fall on his seat, while the others staggered, almost falling on the floor.haa*They all sighed heavily and expressed gratitude for their current freedom.Eddy was particul

The pair fell into a brief silence upon hearing Leon's words.Indeed, their visit here wasn't solely for this investigation.As narrated in the novel, at this point, the duo should have been progressing on their journey somewhere in the eastern lands. Upon discovering clues regarding the dragon's presence there, they set out to investigate.Yet, somehow, they find themselves here instead.This unforeseen circumstance likely stems from the butterfly effect of Leon's attendance at the banquet, causing the issue to escalate to a point where they couldn't ignore it.It's not that Leon failed to grasp their perspective; rather,'They ought not to divert their attention this way. They should continue their journey. Otherwise, the narrative would veer off course.'That's why Leon gently reminds them, despite the risk of raising suspicion."...It's true that we had other matters to attend to, but... how did you become aware of that, Your Majesty? I don't recall mentioning it, do you, Josh?""
Joshua and Luis exchanged glances. Having heard the recounted story, they now identified the culprit responsible for everything that had occurred. However, this revelation didn't automatically translate into complete trust in the witch's narrative, even considering her close association with the duchess and duke. They were well aware of the witches' notorious reputation. Furthermore, recognizing that only one side of the story didn't guarantee authenticity, Joshua stated, "We need to delve deeper into our investigation if we want to find the truth."Luis agreed, saying, "I agree. For now, let's return to your majesty and hear his side of the story before drawing any more conclusions." Subsequently, they expressed their gratitude and took their leave.Julia and the witches were once again left alone in the cabin. The place then lapsed into silence for a moment. Contemplating something, Julia finally made up her mind and spoke, "Ellen... could you assist me with something?""Me?"******
Meanwhile, in another cabin."I apologize, Juli. I couldn't arrange a better place for you in advance.""Hey, what are you saying? Don't act like I'm a stranger. We're friends.""Hahaha, right, we're friends. But still, you must be shocked to see me like this.""...I'm more surprised to see you suddenly change like that. Did the curse break?"Julia inquired, a bit curious after witnessing Ellen, the witch, transform her appearance into her past beautiful self right before her eyes."Ah, that... it's thanks to Daniel.""Hmm? Why thanks to him?""Well, I don't know yet, but you know about my weaknesses, right?""Your core, yes, I know. So?""I don't know why, but whenever that guy touches me or my core, my appearance reverts back to the old me. It's quite a miracle, though I still don't know why.""..."Julia fell into contemplation, absorbing her friend's words as her mind worked to pinpoint the truth. She spoke cautiously,"Ellen, who cursed you? My husband won't tell me much. Did you
The dragon known to Leon as Tania had a past when she was called Tania Ermir. This was the name she bore before marrying her late husband, Daniel Arwin. As an egg, she was discovered by the royalty of the Cloud's Kingdom, who took care of her since her mother passed away shortly after laying the egg. Despite their care, Tania had to fend for herself during the crucial moments of her egg's survival. After centuries in her egg form, Tania emerged as a beautiful snake dragon. The Cloud's Kingdom royalty treated her as their own, giving her the name Tania and adopting their family name, Ermir. However, driven by adult dragon instincts, Tania eventually left the kingdom to journey on her own, only to return and find her hometown no longer existing. 'She had a challenging journey,' Leon thought before continuing, "in any case, now you comprehend the ties I have to that forest and the clouds, and you've discovered my identity. Thus, that concludes the first question, doesn't it?" Luis no
Leon's eyes briefly swept across the three figures, offering them a slight bow before returning his attention to Ellen. He felt no compulsion to extend excessive greetings to them. His focus shifted, driven by a more pressing matter."Anyway, how did this happen?" His question aimed to unravel the current situation before him. Ellen had been in this condition for an extended period, making her sudden ability to contact her friends a dubious development.The notion of her meeting his mother seemed implausible, given the duchess's infrequent outings. As for forming acquaintanceship with the boys, especially Joshua, it appeared highly unlikely. Joshua, with his temperament, would unquestionably eliminate her, just as he had done to Tania. After all, the witch was notorious for her atrocities.And what about the duke, Carl? Carl possessed the ability to travel great distances, using methods unknown to Leon. If he intended to return home without utilizing his unique abilities, Leon was con
"Anyway, Gray... I'll be departing from this place tomorrow."CrackThe glass in Gray's hand cracked the moment Leon finished his sentence. Gray swiftly shifted his attention to Leon, his other hand still gripping a jug of water, as he inquired, "I will follow you, right? Your Majesty?""Hmm?" Leon took a bite of the bread he had soaked in mushroom soup."I will be leaving alone, though," he casually stated."What!? Then... then, what about me?""You'll stay here.""But why? Your Majesty... is there something you don't like about me? I'll fix it—""Fix your way of calling me first," Leon muttered sternly, though his demeanor remained casual."Alright... Milord. I will call you that... is that okay?""Hmm, much better. Even so, you won't follow me.""What? Why?"Gray's question made him look like an abandoned puppy, but Leon wasn't moved in the slightest."You still have things to do here for me. So, stay. I will go home alone."In the end, Gray had to give up."...Haa, I will do as yo
Anyway, that's what transpired. However, when it came to the conversation between Daniel and the cloud people, Gray remained unaware. He was preoccupied being given a tour by the Cloud's inhabitants.Upon leaving the location, Daniel handed him a piece of canvas and explained that he had used it to secure their entry to the palace.Confusion clouded Gray's mind about how it happened. Nevertheless, witnessing Daniel's familiarity with the cloud people and hearing them address him as "Milord," Gray had no doubt about the truth of his current master's words.Furthermore,'Even though he said he would just pretend to be the royalty of the Cloud's Kingdom... I'm pretty sure that this man— he was indeed the king of these people!'There was a misunderstanding in Gray's mind that Daniel was, in fact, a royal figure.From that moment onward, the way Gray treated Leon changed. Instead of addressing him as sir or milord, he now referred to him as his majesty, fitting of his lord's status. Althou
Despite Gray's incredulity at what he was witnessing, both he and Leon found themselves on the cloud. People who appeared engrossed in their own activities halted their work and approached the duo, forming a crowd. Leading them was an elderly man who greeted Daniel as if they were familiar. "Milord, we have come as you called. Is there something the matter?" "Hey Anan, sorry to call you suddenly, but... I just wanted to ask you something. Can we talk for a moment?" "Sure. But that man..." "Ah, he's my servant. I'll leave him in the care of others for a moment. Can you guys show him around, perhaps?" "Sure, it's my joy to do so!" "We will do it for you, milord!" "Yeah, young man, please follow us!" While Gray was being led around by the cloud's inhabitants, Leon ventured to a secluded spot with Anan. "By the way, Anan... I don't recall you ever calling me 'milord' before. Why now?" "...That's right. At first, we didn't think we could use that title, as it's reserved for our ma
"Arghhh* RAN!!! Please help us!! De-demon!! A child watches as his village burns down. All around him, the air is filled with screams from the villagers. His hands clench tightly onto the body of his mother, who carries him while running. His father was left behind to protect them both. Although at first, his mother hesitated, for him, she ran. How long has it been? He didn't know. However, the only time his mother stops is when they no longer see the village in their sight. His mother leans down behind a tree, still tightly hugging him and patting him, telling him everything will be fine, that she will protect him. "Mother..." The small child utters those words unconsciously, trying to look up to see his mother's face. Thud* Suddenly, at that moment, his ears hear the sound of something falling near him. His eyes stop turning at his mother; instead, his head instinctively turns to look at what had fallen. 'What is that?' His head questions, looking at an unknown object l
