Episode 116
“Director… … ?”
Gail, with wounds all over her body, was crawling towards Eileen.
“Eileen! Eileen! All the children are dead. They are all dead.”
Behind Gale, I could see the children from the daycare lying down. They were all completely devoid of any trace, as if a giant monster had swept through.
“Ugh.”
Eileen covered her mouth and sat down.
‘This is a hallucination. Yes, I had a nightmare. It was definitely a trap… … .’
Her head was telling her that the situation before her was a trap, but she could smell blood faintly at the tip of her nose. When Eileen raised her head with difficulty, this time she saw a plain that had been completely reduced to ruins.
There were corpses strewn everywhere, as if the subjugation had failed. Orgen, Rosalia, the Duke, Neumann, Cordelia, Lucian, Felix. The sight of people so familiar lying limply and lifelessly was so horrifying that Eileen sat down.
‘This is fake. It’s fake.’
I knew it, but I was afraid. I could hear screams and groans of pain intermittently. Even if I covered my ears and lowered my head, the sound would not stop.
“Eileen, Eileen, are you okay?”
‘Rakerta?’
Eileen raised her head without realizing it at the familiar voice. There before her eyes was Lakerta with a worried expression.
“ah.”
Eileen’s gaze moved down Lakerta’s face to his chest. The place where his heart should have been was empty. As soon as Lakerta noticed this, he vomited blood on Eileen’s face and collapsed.
“iced coffee.”
I couldn’t stand it anymore. As Eileen’s emotions surged, Star began to cry, stomping her feet anxiously. A small laugh seemed to be heard from somewhere.
***
Felix was in the dark.
I don’t know where it was, but there was a familiar musty smell.
“Don’t come out of there until you die. That’s the rule.”
A harsh word came from somewhere. Now, the game that I thought I had forgotten came back to me vividly. There are games that never end. If death was the rule, Felix could not betray it.
‘If you break the rules, you’re a bad kid. You should never leave. You’ll die here.’
Felix, who had turned into a small child, groped his way against the wall in the darkness, unable to see even an inch ahead of him, and leaned back against it. He put his head between his knees and curled his body up, counting in his head.
’99, 100, 101, 102… … 14032.’
After doing that for a while, a thought suddenly occurred to me.
‘When will I die?’
How many numbers should I count to finish the game? How many have I counted so far? Suddenly, my heart sank. The rule that it ends only when I die was ambiguous. If I stay still, will I die?
It felt like I was in a distant dream, and all the thoughts that came to my mind were hazy and unscrewed.
Felix raised his head and glared into the darkness.
‘I think I forgot something.’
The frustration in his heart spilled over into another direction. Before he knew it, all thoughts of play had disappeared and Felix began to immerse himself in something he had forgotten.
“Felix! Are you ignoring me?! Don’t do anything and just die there! That’s the rule!”
The voice outside the darkness was full of anger. Felix, who had been crouching reflexively, tilted his head.
‘It’s not scary.’
It was strange. My second brother’s voice was so scary that I would burst into tears even in my sleep, but now it just felt noisy.
When I think about it, darkness was the same. The darkness that I had always been afraid of didn’t seem unpleasant today.
‘Why?’
‘I’ll bloom again! I’ll show you many more flowers next time we meet!’
It was then that a soft but firm voice rose gently in his head like a flower blooming. Felix’s eyes opened wide. White flowers glowing in the darkness were blooming.
“Felix!! Are you ignoring what I say?! Something like you?!”
There were still people outside the walls making noise, but it didn’t matter anymore, because as soon as Felix saw the glowing flower, his mind was completely focused on it.
‘Oh, that’s right. Thanks to that kid, I’m no longer afraid of the dark.’
Eileen.
As he thought of a girl smiling brightly, Felix’s body began to grow in an instant. The dark space felt cramped for Felix as he grew larger. As he gathered his magic power, cracks began to appear in the darkness.
“FELIX!!!!!”

A voice that sounded like his second brother shouted, but Felix just snorted. He spoke in a sharp voice.
“You know what? That guy never calls me by my name when we’re alone. He calls me a bastard.”
Then the screaming on the other side of the wall suddenly stopped. At the same time, the cracked wall collapsed and Felix was swept away by waves of dreams.
‘It was just an illusion created by Mongma.’
As he drifted through the dream and looked around, he saw that there were quite a few people who had been captured, and the nightmares people were having looked just like the screens of a video game. Felix found a familiar dream among them.
Eileen sat helplessly before the Duke’s body.
***
How many people, how many times, did they die? For a long time, Eileen had to helplessly watch her loved ones die in various ways.
When I tried to stop it, the scene changed as if nothing had happened, and in that scene, the disasters of different characters were repeated.
Even with her eyes closed, she could hear screams and desperate calls for herself. Eileen’s eyes half-opened as her nerves felt like they were being torn apart. She could hear Star crying desperately. It was dangerous. She knew very well what kind of disaster would occur if the spirit master’s mind collapsed. But even so, it was not easy to calm her feeble heart.
Eileen covered her eyes with her hand as she had another hallucination of losing the Duke. Her stomach lurched and her fingertips felt cold.
‘How long are you going to do this?’
It was a time when despair, resembling anger, tore at my heart.
“Eileen! Eileen, open your eyes!”
Felix’s voice was heard. But Eileen could not easily open her eyes. It was likely a hallucination, cleverly using people’s minds like when Lakerta happened.
As I was thinking that, I was about to turn around.
Suddenly, Eileen opened her eyes reflexively at the sensation of her body being lifted. Felix, who had picked her up, had purple eyes looking down at Eileen with concern. Eileen examined Felix’s body. He was fine.
“Are you really Felix?”
“Yeah. Check it out.”
Felix lowered his head and placed his head over Eileen’s. He could hear her heart pounding as they got closer and closer together.
Eileen bit her lip at the sound that was exactly the same as on the day of the ball.
This time it was Felix again. The person who always came to me when I wanted him the most, when I longed for him the most.
When Eileen hugged Felix’s neck, Felix flinched in surprise and then hugged her back. When Eileen raised her head again, Felix’s blank expression turned into a bashful smile.
Eileen, who was looking at that familiar smile again, suddenly realized something.
‘I can’t live without this smile anymore.’
“Felix.”
“huh?”
“Once this is over, I’ll give you the answers you couldn’t give me then.”
Felix’s eyes opened wide and then closed softly. Eileen got down from Felix’s arms and gathered her strength. It was a very high-concentration energy, enough to shatter the dream world created by the dreamer.
***
“Ugh.”
Eileen woke up clutching her pounding head. Looking around, she saw that there were many others waking up from nightmares besides Eileen and Felix.
“Eileen! You’re awake.”
Lucian helped Eileen to her feet. From what he could tell, some of those exposed to the black curtain seemed to be in a state of dreamlike hallucination.
“There’s a dreamcatcher here!”
Someone screamed. The nightmare was thrown out along with Eileen’s forced passage through the hallucination, and she was rolling around on the floor, spitting up blood.
“Damn it! Damn it!! It’s you again!”
It was when the dreamer, shedding tears of blood, screamed in pain.
“Now is the time!”
The priest Gavil, who was hiding behind the dream horse, and Russo and Hanna, the magic and demonology teachers of Verotanis, quickly caught the dream horse.
“You will not escape from that body!”
When Gabil trapped the demon with his divine power, Rousseau sealed the demon so that it could not leave his body. It was a technique they had prepared for a long time in order to deal with the demon that had escaped in the past by abandoning its body.
“You stupid humans!! Do you think I’ll run away again!”
Mongma let out a roar of anger. The whites and blacks of his eyes reversed, and a rippling darkness flowed out from the nape of his neck.
As the people around them became tense and on alert, one person quickly headed towards Mongma.
“you……”
Albert, with a tired face, stood in front of Mongma while wrapped in electricity.
