◈ Episode 571: The truth covered in wrapping cloth (1)
Noksanna bestowed grace on Franz.
Although it was not the power of an apostle, its value was inestimable as it was a power given directly by the Goddess of Dreams.
Franz felt complex emotions as the power welled up inside him.
I was deluded that if I had had this power from the beginning, the outcome might have been different.
Franz tried to shake off those thoughts and spoke to Noksanna.
“thank you.”
What I hate is what I hate, and yet I was grateful to have received this power.
“I’m glad that’s the case.”
Noksanna smiled with relief, her gaze turned towards Ludger.
“I’d like to give you some presents too, but that probably won’t work, right?”
Noksanna saw Ludger’s position right away.
Ludger was intentionally maintaining the sealing technique to block the intervention of other gods.
It was invisible to others, but it was visible to Noksanna.
A complex barrier made up of three layers was floating like a halo above Ludger’s head.
Should I say that it feels like a complex barcode made of light, triple-layered?
Seeing how it fit perfectly together made Ludger feel even more amazing.
As long as that exists, the voices of the gods will not reach Ludger.
At the same time, thanks to that, Lumensis has been unable to identify Ludger until now.
In such a situation, if Noksanna grants grace here, Lumensis might notice.
“To be honest, I feel greedy. “Even though I know I shouldn’t, I want to give you my grace as a gift.”
Ludger had a very unusual constitution.
Noksanna loves and embraces all humans as if they were her children, but Ludger felt even more special.
They say there isn’t a finger that doesn’t hurt when bitten, but Ludger is by far the most skilled in martial arts.
“But that’s probably not what you want. So don’t do it.”
“Thank you for your kindness.”
“Hehe. You must be so special to be thankful for something like this. In the end, all I can say to you here is to wish you luck in the future.”
“If it is the goddess’s support, it is more reassuring than anything else.”
“That’s good to hear. Yes, you who have collected all the fragments will not need my power. “Because you have walked this entire path on your own.”
Noksanna smiled softly and waved at Ludger.
“It’s time to say goodbye. I’m going to fall asleep again. I will have a very long dream again. “A dream where you don’t know when you will wake up, or you may not wake up at all.”
Noksanna looked up at the sky.
Now that the entrance to the real world was closed, only the deep sky was visible, but her gaze could see beyond the sky of the real world.
I feel it.
The enormous malice that exists there.
He probably realized that he had woken up.
On the outside, it proclaims justice and kindness, but on the inside, the lumensis is narrower than you might think.
Soon the continent will be swept up in all kinds of strange things.
‘Is this just because I woke up? I feel truly sorry for the children on earth.’
Moreover, the reason he woke up was because Nirva, who had been twisted for a long time, sacrificed countless human lives.
If I dug deeper than that, I could also see that someone else’s subtle will was involved.
The fact that I woke up was because it was not of my own volition.
But Noksanna did not bother to point out that part.
There was no anger or shame in her.
Because it was such a transcendent being, Noksanna felt only a sense of detachment.
‘What lies ahead must be dealt with by those left behind. ‘Nothing good will come of my involvement.’
But still, I felt like I didn’t want to see Lumensis acting as he wanted.
So Noksanna aroused her energy and launched it beyond the deep sky.
She doesn’t know when, where, or how this power will come into play.
If there is destiny in this world, or if someone inevitably wants to achieve something.
This arranged power will surely bloom into the most splendid flower.
Noksanna, who had installed the minimum safety measures, slowly closed her eyes.
“Sleep well. every. “I hope you have nice dreams.”
The body of Noksanna, who had descended as an incarnation, dispersed like a haze.
At the same time, [Nurse Lime] completely disappeared, and Noksanna’s main body curled up again and fell into sleep.
Still, the difference from before was that Noksanna’s current body took the shape of a beautiful woman sleeping soundly.
* * *
“finished.”
“The leader is successful.”
The Owens members who were fighting to the death with [Nursely Lime] smiled brightly as they watched the new and old disappearing.
“for a moment. Even the goddess has fallen asleep, and if it’s all over, what will we do now?”
Alex suddenly expressed this opinion.
Didn’t they say that once you enter the depths of Dreamland, it’s difficult to get out again?
To put those thoughts in vain, the sky of Dreamland began to rumble loudly.
Rather than just ringing, the entire depths of Dreamland were engulfed in a huge light.
At the moment when they wondered what was going to happen again, people were drawn by a huge, unknown force.
As if it had been submerged in deep water and someone was hastily pulling it out with a rope.
There were no exceptions to that.

Ludger, Franz, Owens, the people on the battleship, and even the citizens and students who were rejoicing in the victory of the battle from afar.
The moment when the light fades and the body that was being attracted by something comes to a shaky stop.
Everyone opens their eyes at the same time.
woke up from a dream
“here is.”
Alex belatedly realized the situation while looking at the sight of the underground waterway.
“This is an emergency exit. Could it be that he came back again?”
Pantos, Violetta, Arfa, and Bella Luna were also around Alex.
Such a phenomenon occurred simultaneously throughout Lederbelk city.
People who fell into sleeping sickness woke up one by one and realized that they had returned to reality.
“oh my god.”
Tacie stood up in the classroom and pinched her cheek.
I felt a faint pain, but it didn’t feel like it was real.
Because the pain felt the same in Dreamland.
“This is reality, right?”
“Then I woke up from a dream. Is it still a dream?”
Despite Leo’s scolding, Teishi still had a blank expression on her face.
Normally, she would have gotten angry and started a fight with Leo, but after going through so much, she didn’t even have the strength left to get angry.
“Everyone, you’ve returned to reality.”
“That’s right. To be honest, we were just dreaming.”
“I was dreaming.”
That was a funny thing to say.
Until now, I thought dreams were just illusions.
Considering what I experienced in Dreamland, can I just dismiss it as a dream?
No, perhaps they had treated dreams too trivially until now.
Dreams are another world.
Even if I returned to reality and woke up, the moment I dreamed would not have been worthless.
Tacie’s eyes turned to Aidan.
“Aidan. Why aren’t you saying anything? “I finally got back. Aren’t you happy?”
“It’s not that I’m not happy.”
Aidan stared out the window with a wry smile.
“There are some people who never came back.”
“ah.”
It was only then that Tacie realized.
In this Dreamland incident, there are quite a few people who did not return.
An event that went beyond any natural disaster occurred.
Naturally, the number of deaths would be difficult to calculate.
The expressions of Teishi, Leo, and Iona also became serious.
At that time, the back door of the classroom swung open and someone ran out.
Everyone looked at the back door at the sudden action.
What was reflected in the field of view of the students, who were still dumbfounded and unable to realize the reality, was ash gray hair.
“Rine?”
Erendir belatedly called out to Linne, but there was no answer.
Line ran out of the classroom and ran through the school at high speed.
All over the hallway, people who had just woken up were confused and couldn’t tell whether it was a dream or reality.
Naturally, they didn’t even pay attention to Rine, who was desperately running.
As Line continued to run, she left the campus and eventually reached a forest.
I don’t know why.
However, I instinctively knew that he was there.
Did you have the same thoughts as Rine?
At the entrance to the forest, I made eye contact with a man who was coming out just in time.
Liné stopped and stood still, staring at him.
A man with the beauty of a painting, as if carved from marble.
Blue eyes like a calm lake and long black hair.
I don’t know how excited I was when I saw that.
But not now.
At least for now, Rine’s heart was colder than anything else in the world.
“Really?”
Line asked Ludger.
“Did you really kill me, teacher?”
Actually, asking itself was useless.
Because she also came to mind, albeit faintly.
When Noksanna woke up and rang [Nursery Rhyme] once.
When that wave swept through everyone and threw people into nightmares.
This was because Line also saw the scene of that day as a dream.
Due to the memory seal applied by Ludger, the sight was seen only in fragments, but there was still a scene that I remembered clearly.
In the forest under the moonlight.
The sight of Ludger stabbing his mother’s heart with a dagger.
Even though I knew, asking questions was just an escape from reality.
I hoped it was just a made up story.
He said that he actually had no family, that his old memories were erased in some kind of accident, and that Ludger was a good teacher.
In her heart, Line desperately hoped so.
but.
“okay.”
The words that came out of Ludger’s mouth were completely different from Linne’s expectations.
Not a sweet lie, but a clear and cruel truth.
That flowed from Ludger’s mouth.
“I killed your mother. There is no lie in that fact.”
Line’s body stumbled.
The moment Ludger saw that and tried to approach her, Liné screamed in a fit of rage.
“Don’t come closer!”
Ludger paused.
Liné’s expression was not visible as she lowered her head.
However, I could tell that she was sad, angry, and suffering.
The feeling of betrayal that the person you trusted until now has been deceiving you, and the cruel truth you suddenly realize.
No matter how strong of a spirit Linne was, this was not something she could endure.
“Rine, I… … .”
“stop! “I don’t want to hear any excuses!”
The more Rinne heard Ludger’s voice, the more distressed she felt.
A voice that made even boring classes sound sweet.
Even though I was worried about myself now, I was horribly afraid.
Ludger felt that if he left Line like this, she might be ruined.
It wasn’t just a fuss, it was an instinctive intuition.
“I have something to tell you.”
Ludger tried to talk about what happened that day.
At that time, someone ran out of breath to where the two people were.
“Rine!”
Freuden Ulburg.
When he woke up, he came all the way here to find Rine.
“senior.”
Line’s empty gaze turned to Freuden.
When Freuden saw those eyes, he felt his heart drop.
“you… … The eyes… … .”
“Senior, you knew too, right?”
“… … .”
Freuden did not ask what the hell was going on.
Starting with Line’s current state, the eyes looking at her and Ludger’s somber expression said it all.
“I wanted to tell you.”
Freuden almost forgot to say anything.
I wanted to tell someone who knows everything.
Wasn’t it he who chose to remain silent even though he had several opportunities to do so?
I should have said that what I just said was a mistake, but it was already too late.
Feeling betrayed even by Freuden, whom she trusted, who can she trust?
Passsss.
Magical energy fluctuated around Liné’s body.
The intense anger she was experiencing was causing her to run wild, unable to control her magical power.
At the same time, a figure appeared above Line’s head.
‘That’s it.’
Ludger’s eyes widened.
It was Line’s magic number that looked like a cube.
As if resonating with the owner’s will, the magic beast spread vicious magical power around.
At the same time, brilliant light began to flow from its body.
something happens
Ludger, realizing this, kicked off the ground without realizing it and ran towards Linne.
Tooung!
The intense wave of magical power emitted by Line’s magic water tried to push Ludger’s body away.
Ludger’s eyes widened as he tried to resist the power by generating magic power.
‘My magical power is being pushed back?’
It’s not because the magic beast’s magical power is enormous.
Rather, it is the opposite. The power itself was greater on this side, but there was something else on that side that surpassed the power gap.
“I don’t like it anymore.”
Ugh.
The magic beast cried harshly as Line lowered her head and muttered the words.
“I’d rather go somewhere.”
“Rine!”
[Ather Nocturnus]
Ludger, whose entire body was covered in shadow, ignored the magic beast’s resistance and stretched out his arms towards Linne.
Immediately after that, the surrounding area was engulfed in an intense flash of light.
Freuden, who saw the light disappearing and what was left, muttered involuntarily.
“This is… … .”
Line and Ludger had already disappeared.
As if that wasn’t enough, the ground the two people were on was neatly cut as if it had been dug up with something sharp.
“Where on earth have you two gone now?”
