The Righteous Player(s)

Chapter 568 The gap between dreams
...still tried it out.

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

Then Ingrid seemed to die because of something later.

And Justus still has a crush on her?
...So this is not the seventh class, but the Minato class?
——Ye is Brother Obituary?
But it seems that depending on the situation, at least "Lin" was not killed by "Kakashi".Otherwise, Justus probably wouldn't be so polite to Frederick...

Why, though, Secret Lover?

Annan frowned slightly.

Is it because of... the Melvins?

As a member of the Melvin family—especially a well-known gifted boy, he is second only to Eugene Melvin's direct bloodline in terms of succession to the "God of the World".

Frederick's marriage was probably not for himself.

According to Annan's understanding, the Melvin family is pure-blooded wizard blood - all clansmen with the surname Melvin will take a talent check before they are born.If there is no wizard talent, it will be killed before birth.And the Melvin family will only marry other wizards and continue to purify their blood.

Like those girls who marry out and teenagers who get married, their next generation is almost bound to be a wizard.With just a little education, if you don't fall from a nightmare or have too much erosion to disrupt your promotion evolution, you will definitely be able to advance to the silver rank.

Annan saw the most outstanding achievement of the Melvin family in Nightmare: The White Tower.

Eugene Melvin.

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

And Michelangelo even had to communicate with Eugene Melvin in advance to allow him to enter the ceremony... At that time Annan thought that it was because Michelangelo was afraid of him that he killed him.The purpose is to prevent one's sublimation ceremony from being disturbed.

Yes.Eugene Melvin of the Silver Order is capable of interfering with this ritual that has spanned several years.

But looking back now...

...I am afraid that Eugene cooperated with the man in the mirror voluntarily.

Because Michelangelo can't really kill him without magic.This is undoubtedly an extremely risky and low-return action...but Eugene Melvin is indeed dead.

But as the next head of the Melvin family, this didn't arouse the anger of the Melvin family?
How can this be?

Now add the strange example of Frederick... Whether it is from the mission introduction or from Justus's words, Annan can analyze that he knows nothing about tragedies and is not interested.

How could such a person become the "Professor Wolf" who troubled the Duchy of Winter?
In this nightmare, there is a sense of incongruity.

It's like I forgot something important.

But Annan couldn't remember...

"……Wait a moment."

Annan said softly.

At this moment, Annan's footsteps suddenly stopped.

Because the surrounding gradually fogged up.

Justus also stopped immediately, and raised his right arm to signal Annan to hide behind him.

... This fog is outrageous.

Annan thought.

——I'm afraid there will be a boss.

Annan raised his hand, patted Justus's back lightly, and hid his figure slightly behind him.

Or to be more precise...Because of the obvious height difference between the two, Annan took a picture close to Justus's midfielder.

"... anyone?"

"The Unfalling Shield" Justus asked softly.

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

"Be careful."

Annan said in a low voice.

He saw a red figure appearing at a distance of about 80 meters in front of him.

Yes, red, and bright—

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 about to betray you, in your field of vision, he will be highlighted immediately and displayed through obstacles (so this effect can be used without opening the left eye)]

Annan whispered, "Protect me well."

Fortunately, the hood covered his expression, so Annan's extremely complicated expression was not seen by Justes.

Because Annan saw it very clearly——

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

His figure was exactly the same as Justus standing beside him.

next moment.

A scorching red spinning ax tilted at a 45-degree angle in the air and roared toward——

Like lightning, the ax bypassed Justus in front, and approached Annan's head in the blink of an eye.

——Sure enough, the boss is Justus, I guessed right.

This was the first thought that came to Annan's mind.

——This MT is trash.

This was the thought that came to Annan's mind when he saw that Justus hadn't reacted at all—or, in other words, it was as if he hadn't seen the ax at all.

——This ax smells like wine.

This was the last thought in Annan's mind when the flying ax was extremely close.

without any pain.

But when it got close to his eyes, Annan's eyes suddenly went dark.

"……Um?"

Annan let out a sigh, 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 just like when I was in school... With my arms folded on the table, I fell asleep lying on my arms.

He could even see red marks printed on his arms.

This slender arm looks like a minor...

Annan raised his head and looked around.

It's like a library, but it's not that big... at least not as big as Zedi Black Tower.There are also some people around, all young people in their teens.

And behind him was a girl with long dark blue hair who hurried over.

Noticing that she woke up, she asked in a clear and joyful voice in disbelief:

"...Freyer? You're awake!"

The girl looked no more than 14 years old.

He looked at Annan with a very concerned expression, even a little...worship?
This is Ingrid?

"Ingrid?"

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

"That's great, Freire!"

Ingrid did not do anything strange about 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 find the professor for help, and the professor will come over in a while... You have to explain to him, you really fell into 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 young man with a hedgehog head who was 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!"

"Fuck..."

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

That very familiar position made Annan immediately recognize his identity.

This is...Justus?
"Justus, what are you doing!"

Seeing Annan's sudden cry of pain, Ingrid looked at Justus with dissatisfaction: "The attack is not serious!"

"Ah sorry sorry Frey! As soon as I'm happy..."

The young Justus touched the back of his head shyly and embarrassingly, and then his eyes lit up: "Let me treat you to barbecue, Frey!
"I heard that a batch of high-quality beef from the Church has been imported recently. I have wanted to eat it for a long time! Let's go together, the three of us!"

"Ah, then go and eat..."

Hearing about eating meat, Ingrid was moved but resisted: "I don't like eating meat very much."

- This is a lie.

Annan keenly captured her thoughts.

Are you afraid of getting fat?
He took a deep breath and looked down at the books in front of him.

Dark golden characters are engraved on the black as stone classics.

The title of the book is... The Law of Similarity and Precognitive Dreams.

……Dream?

A noun suddenly appeared in Annan's mind:
——The gap between dreams!
