As he was wondering to himself and calling himself pity, something seemed to be crumbling under his nose.While he was thinking about how to convince that voice to take him back to his original world, something was being churned up in that illusionary dungeon.As he was still thinking about how to deal with the whole situation, he saw something unexpected in the sky, something was cracking.The sky felt like it was falling down, a thin shield was melting in the hot weather while its melting liquid and solid chunks were falling on the flat surface from that great height.Jiro was confused about what was going on right now, and couldn't gather anything in his mind. "Err! What's going on? Why is the sky melting? Is this some kind of dream?" He thought aloud."Sorry to interrupt you but it's not a dream. It's not that the sky is falling or melting. It's a sign that we do not have much time and that this world is about to disappear."Someone interrupted him.Jiro turned around and saw a hu
With this, Jiro realised that they were seeing two different horizons and worlds as if they were in the same spot but their vision was different."Big brother, Can you...can you see this dead body floating in this muddy water? It's here, just before my eyes on the 90-degree angle", Jiro pointed his hand towards his dead body which was visible to him.Piano's pupil dialect where Jiro's hand was navigating, but Piano gave out no reaction as there was nothing on the floor. What's worse, to him, Jiro was standing where the snake had made his nest."Kiddo! You are stepping on the snake's nest, come here".Just when Piano said it, he recalled that he just got Jiro out of that next a moment ago. Things are becoming clear now."Kiddo! What more do you see? What are your surroundings?", He asked Jiro in a serious tone."It's wet and muddy on the ground, more like we are standing in the muddy water but is not sinking. It's a forest around us with the trees having unique red and yellow color lea
The time was running out. They were trapped in an illusionary world. And no one knew the way to crack that illusion.Piano wrapped his hands around the small body of Jiro and placed him very close to his chest. Even though Jiro was an adult, his body was that of a child who was merely nine or ten years old.So when Piano cuddled him and glued him to his chest, like a kid, Jiro was nonexistent to the outsiders and the whole world as he was mixed to Piano's body and flesh, as if they were one and not two.Roug was originally twenty-seven and was now in an adult's body which was no more than any child. It's been more than twenty years since someone carried him like this into their arms.He still remembers how his mom used to arrive early and wait outside of the junior school when he was a kid. She used to wait for him and when he would walk out of the school gate, his mother used to welcome him with a wide smile filled with affection on her face.She would carry him on her back on the w
In desperation, Jiro jumped in.His heartbeat was literally screaming out in fear at the moment, he dared not to see any death just after coming into his world, if that is to happen, it would be cruel...very cruel.Just as he was about to jump inside the fight, he froze on the spot. Fortunately, that wasn't his blood. Jiro was nearly shocked to death when he felt his soul flying right away from his body. The blood wasn't Piano's, it was actually from those wolves. When those wolves targeted him and attacked him, they nearly surrounded him leaving him no space to move or save his own life.However, Piano had experienced such situations in his life before. So such a small matter was nothing to him. Just when those wolves attacked him, he raised his sword and sliced their heads off from their body.No animal got away from him. He slashed their heads off like a predator who was mainly here to take their lives and heads especially. He ruthlessly exploited all of the wolves and took the
The laughter escaped Piano's mouth as if Jiro made a joke. "Why are you laughing?", Jiro asked.And right now, Jiro was confused. Because the affection bar has reached the bar of 75 percent. It was a scary thing to Jiro to see that affection bar rising so suddenly."Did I joke about something?", He asked in confusion as Piano couldn't stop laughing."No! You did not. I am just surprised. It's the first time a kid isn't scared of me and is asking me if I have kids of my own", Piano was feeling lighthearted now.It was the first time someone had felt that he can have kids around him like a normal person.Kids get easily scared of him since he is someone who wields swords and kills others. So when that scary side of him shows up to them, they can't help but maintain a safe distance from him. Right now he was glad that a kid was acting normal around him and not scared of him at all, it was a good experience for him.Jiro tilted his head in confusion as he even tried to rack his brain to
Is it said that this place was the hotspot of demons who were doing evil in the world, they are caged here by that Mage thousand years ago.After he caged those demons, he sealed this place with highly proficient magic, it was...Illusion.From the outside, this place was nothing like a dungeon, with no darkness, no caves, no holes, and no monsters. But this place on its own was more dangerous than anything that was mentioned above.A place that looked no more than any normal forest from the outside, like a perfect place or a shelter for animals. But once you enter inside, you will see the illusion. As Piano was telling him about this place, Jiro was getting chills. His body was reacting to something strange, the hairs on his body were standing as if a ghost was watching him from around somewhere. "My dear! You look appetizing, I wanna have a taste of you", Something whispered.Jiro's ears stood straight in warning, he looked around like a scaredy cat. "What was that noise? Who spok
Piano extended his hand in front of him, expecting Jiro to hold his hand and say yes to him. Even though Jiro had a sweet smile on his face, for some reason Piano could see that he was not smiling because he was willing to, more like he was forced to.Just as he expected, Jiro pulled out his hand and placed it amongst the large palm of Piano which was standing out the most and the only one right now.He didn't hesitate, his agreement was enough for Piano. And the next moment, Piano lifted him in the air and then placed him gently on his shoulders. Right now, Jiro was viewing the higher view from that height while sitting on his shoulder. This sure was enough to make him recall those heartwarming moments during his childhood.His dad used to play with him in the evening and then on the way back he used to put Roug on his shoulder and carry him home like that.As much as it was heartwarming and made him recall all those old forgotten memories. He sure was disturbed by something else.T
She couldn't believe this little monster kid had a way to set themselves free from this illusionary dungeon. "Impossible! Monster Kiddo! Don't get ahead of yourself just because you have a brain installed in your head".She was pissed at him for the thought of even thinking about leaving this place when she was all tied up there. It was unfair.Of course, Jiro could hear all the anger and frustration in her voice. She was extremely curious yet furious at Jiro for saying he has a way out.Jiro took one pair of earbuds from Piano. "Big brother! Since this is illusionary Dungeons, it means everything here counts as a mirage or our imagination which is hidden in our subconscious mind", He said as he started putting earbuds in his ears.He gently put one after another in both ears with great care. And then covered his ears with another pair of earbuds too.As they both covered their ears, the extra sound and noises in the background became non-existent to them.Piano still didn't was conf
