The Blood Knight’s Villains - Chapter 225

My Villains Episode 225

47. Nightmare (7)

I couldn’t take my eyes off the palace in the distance while climbing the quiet trail.

‘Takanto’ is a palace that is not lacking compared to other royal palaces. It was a space where dozens of direct blood relatives of Zahakar and Baluin

, as well as the duke who ruled the whole of Ireland,

stayed.

smelled of

The architectural style is also unusual, reminding me of a palace I saw somewhere in southern Spain, but on the other hand, it gave the impression of a hedgehog or lizard crouching.

It may have been a disgusting sight to a 21-year-old Phoenix, but to a 30-year-old man, Kim Seung-soo, it was a new and

fascinating

landscape ……

It’s work.

Memories of Phoenix were also in my head, and the image of Dakanto Palace over there remained clear.

But now, looking at the palace as something called Gimpo Inix, which is a combination of Kim Seung-soo and Phoenix, a completely different impression from memory welled up.

The same was true of the road along Heila.

A secluded promenade that stretches like a winding snake in the shadow of the tall, pointed walls.

As a boy, he had memories of walking along with Ayla about four or five times, so he only remembered it, and it was a space that did not give Phoenix any inspiration.

It was different for Kim Seung-soo or Kim Po-Inix.

Because of the high walls, the sun only shines for two or two hours a day, so most of the things that grew around were low grass and moss.

However, even in this shady shade,

a few flowers were blooming.

Looking at the purple irises blooming like that, I felt awe or sadness.

Surprisingly, the next thing that came to mind was Ayla.

When the days got chilly, she would pluck irises with sad eyes and make a bouquet of them. He must have wanted to show off this beautiful and wonderful landscape to his family.

“……Whoa.” Suddenly, I fully understood Phoenix’s mind.

The boy loved Ayla.

It would have been close to impossible not to love her as she handed over a bouquet of flowers and gave her a pure smile.

Around the time when you savor something that is sweet yet bitter, warm yet thrilling.

Heila stopped in front of the short steps.

“…what’s the matter?”

“I’m going to take a break and then go.”

“Are you going to rest?”

The corner where the walls of Tow’s Den and the stairs leading to Takanto Palace meet. There was a long bench made of black wood.

…Was there a bench like this here? I don’t remember Phoenix.

While I tilted my head, Haila sat quietly on the bench.

“You should get some rest too.”

“I don’t think I have time to relax.”

“I still can’t help it.”

“Can’t help it?”

“huh. I’m weak on stairs.”

what is he saying

Neither the experienced uncle Kim Seung-soo nor his cousin Phoenix could guess what Heila was thinking

.

“Let’s take a break for a while. You were already a bit tired.”

“All right.”

I put my butt next to Heila and opened my mouth.

“Can you guess what the situation is?”

“Roughly.”

” Roughly?”

“huh. You have entered the dream territory you built.”

She blinked a couple of times as if she felt a stare demanding an explanation before continuing.

“Originally, this world should only consist of your dreams. However, this strange dream must have been realized because other people were caught up in it while the Dream Mansion was not completed.”

“…okay? So what happened to Cole?”

” call?”

“huh. Cole came straight into my dreams.”

Cole, who caught the gaze of me and Heila, opened his mouth with his characteristic calm face.

“Right after I was swallowed by the black disc, I came to my senses in a strange room. Unless my memory is wrong.”

“A strange room?”

“yes. It was a mysterious room full of things I hadn’t seen before… Cole looked back at me and shrugged.

“that’s right. It was my dream.”

Heila blinked slowly, thoughtfully.

“I wonder if Cole didn’t have dreams worth writing about?”

“…Is there something that is useful for dreams and not useful for dreams?”

“I don’t know. It’s just speculation.”

They talked more about the Dream Mansion, but nothing came of it. This is because there was too little information in the first place.

“Well, I’m glad.”

As I said that, I let out a deep sigh, and Heila’s black eyes turned to me.

To someone who doesn’t know, it’s like a meaningless gaze. As I got used to her, when I saw her, her gaze was permeated with interest or curiosity.

…what the. If you’re curious, you’ll open your mouth and ask a question. Is it okay if your eyes are twinkling like that?

While grumbling inwardly, he responded to Heila’s gaze.

“Here it is. I’m glad it wasn’t a bad dream.”

“Bad dreams?” “Yeah, the place I passed before was… a complete nightmare.”

My heart was pounding for some reason, but I tried my best to pretend to be calm.

“Some monsters came out and the ground cracked and it was very chaotic.”

Instead of answering, Heila just blinked quietly.

what is this reaction

“…why? What do you have?”

“Uh huh”

I fell into confusion for a moment at the usual calm reply.

“Do you have any problems?”

“It’s not a good dream.”

“This world?”

“huh.”

“No, what is that… so peaceful?”

Cole, who had been sitting silently, opened his mouth cautiously.

“Phoenix’s dream was similar. The quietness of the surroundings gives you goosebumps.”

“The atmosphere is different.”

“You mean the atmosphere? Uhm”

Cole looked around quietly.

“…I don’t know.”

The Takanto Palace was obviously a magnificent and wonderful building, but the castle and barracks surrounding it were gloomy, as if a ghost were about to come out.

Yeah, in terms of the atmosphere, it seems more dangerous here. But somehow, I feel an unknown peace here.

I scratched my eyebrows and turned to Heyla.

“What kind of dream is this?”

She was silent for a moment, then slowly opened her mouth.

“It’s hard to explain.”

“Well then, at least roughly-”

“Let’s move. You will find out when you climb up.”

It’s kind of like avoiding my eyes.

Heila rose from the bench and led the way up the stairs, and I followed her with Hrunting drawn. Cole, who set the string on his bow, followed the furthest behind and looked behind the extension.

Heila, who had been walking quietly, opened her mouth abruptly as she passed the corner where the stairs came into contact with the castle wall.

“I liked Ayla too.”

“…uh?”

“Because I was an older sister and not a person like Balouin.”

What are you talking about all of a sudden?

“When I was young, I used to blindly copy Ayla’s actions.”

“Like what?”

“I’ve cooked before, and I’ve made furniture before.”

“Aside from cooking, you made furniture?”

“huh. I also made the bench down there.”

“what?”

I quickly glanced through Phoenix’s memory, but

“…I didn’t know at all.”

“Because the adults didn’t like it, so I secretly made it.”

After a moment’s pause, Heila added softly.

“…you’ve never seen it before. It broke after four days of making it.”

“In four days? Could it be that adults are like that?”

“no.”

“then?”

“The soldiers sat down for a while during patrol and it broke.”

“uh?”

“…I don’t have any talent for that.” but. How strong can a bench made by a child be…

After a moment of silence, Heila added:

“No one was hurt.”

“…Even if you get hurt, you should keep your mouth shut. I can’t hold you accountable.”

“It’s not like that. No one really got hurt.”

“I see.”

When Heila kept her mouth shut, I smiled and asked a question.

“But why did you suddenly bring up Ayla?”

“…just like cooking and furniture, I followed her for walks.”

“walk?”

“huh.”

Heila climbed the last step.

I glanced at her and saw that she was quietly swallowing dry saliva.

“This was my last walk.”

“Last walk?”

Climbing the stairs, we arrived at a small empty lot. There was a steep drainage canal under the wall on the left, a large palace tower in front, and a wide road leading to the Takanto Palace on the right.

“…wait here.”

Heila moved slowly towards the gutter.

A few withered flowers had fallen near the drainage ditch. Since most of them are over the edge, it seems that they fell into the drainage ditch and got caught in the chin.

Heila’s slow steps trampled the wilted irises. The dry petals and leaves are partly cracked.

At the same time, a Wen In Young came out from behind the palace tower.

“Oh.”

Surprised Cole aimed an arrow at him, so he quickly raised his hand to dissuade him. It was because the face of In-yeong protruding from the palace tower was very familiar.

Cole looked at In-young again belatedly and opened his mouth halfway.

“…that’s not possible”

The one who jumped out from behind the palace tower was a beautiful-looking boy. A boy holding a bunch of withered flowers and old paper on his chest.

“…Are you Phoenix?”

“that’s right. I think I’m about thirteen.”

“oh my god.”

Cole was astonished.

Young Phoenix looked to be about 170 tall. He was as big as any young man, but his tanned brown face was full of downy hair, giving him a cute and youthful look.

Her features were also pretty enough to be mistaken for a girl, but they were as hard as a doll or statue.

Cole’s eyes were full of disbelief as he looked back and forth between the young Phoenix and me.

“Um, how is this?”

“…What does that mean?”

“No, no.”

“No, what’s wrong, you bastard. ‘Why did you change so reversely?’ It is written.”

While Cole was sweating at my growl, a young Phoenix appeared from behind the tower and stopped at Heyla.

Heyla, or rather, the boy’s eyes

narrowed coldly when he noticed the withered flower she was stepping on.

The boy said nothing.

He strode over and stood in front of Heila, staring her in the eyes.

Hayla didn’t even open her mouth.

She bit the inside of her lip and cautiously took a step back.

Little Phoenix got down on one knee and began picking up the flower Heila was stepping on and the flowers scattered around her. Heila just stared blankly at him.

Soon after, the boy got up and turned around in the direction of the tower where he had appeared.

“wait for a sec.”

The boy turned to Heyla at the low, barely audible voice.

“…oh my.”

Standing behind Heila, I met the boy’s eyes squarely and let out a sigh.

Thanks to the expressionless face, the boy’s black eyes shone even more vividly. What was contained in that sparkle was all sorts of negative emotions, such as resentment, hatred, anger, contempt, and

disgust. No matter how angry I am, is that the look you would give to your cousin and fiancée?

No matter what I thought in my heart, Heila, who faced the boy’s eyes and emotions, couldn’t continue and kept her mouth shut. The boy who glared at her soon disappeared behind the palace tower.

Heila, who was watching the young Phoenix from afar, slowly turned around. It also seemed to be slightly twisted.

She returned to me and Cole, who had been silent, and opened her mouth.

“let’s go.”

“…Where?”

“To the palace. If you walk along the road and see it all, it will be over.”

“Is that the end?”

“O” Heh.

For some reason, Heila’s face was a little more dry than before. Her eyes were also calmer than usual.

Thanks to you, I was sure.

It was none other than Phoenix that gave Heila an unforgettable nightmare.
