Chapter 20 Dreams and Reality! The Time Robber Lurking in the Dark!
"Then?"

Aguilera asked curiously.

It has been a year since she came into this world.

We have conducted certain investigations on the surrounding forces.

Because the God of War is here.

There has not been any monster organization in the area under the jurisdiction of Chongyue City.

And this [God of War] appeared exactly five years ago.

She had never heard of the knight war that the girl described.

at least
The information from the investigation of the exiles.
No one has ever mentioned the fact that Chongyue City became a "forbidden zone" five years ago.

If it wasn't the squid that deceived her, then it was the girl who was lying.

Knights Battle!

S+ level restricted area!
The knights are killing each other!

There is also a weird mirror world!
Everything the girl said seemed to be made up.

After all, it is impossible that such a big thing has no records.

Could it be that someone erased this history?
If that's really the case.
Then why does the girl in front of me still retain her memories?
Don't understand!
My head itches, as if something is going to grow!
Aguilera scratched her head subconsciously and adjusted the maid's headdress on her head.

She looked at the girl with a questioning look, waiting for her to continue making up a story.

"Let's go back inside and talk."

"Aguilera, give her a glass of hot milk."

"Have you had breakfast? If not, let's go together."

Sougo asked the girl with a smile and extended a friendly invitation to her.

The girl's face was very pale and her body was shaking from the beginning.

Conceivable
What happened five years ago was deeply engraved in her mind.

"Thanks."

"Can I have two more candies if possible?"

The girl raised two trembling fingers and asked embarrassedly.

The doctor told her.
The right amount of sugar can effectively relieve her tense nerves.

It can also appease the [devil] imprisoned in her body.

"Aguilera."

Sougo smiled faintly and called out the name of his little maid.

“I know.”

Aguilera drawled weakly, turning and heading towards the kitchen.

restaurant.

"That"

“I just kept talking.”

The girl drank the warm sweet milk in small sips.

The originally tense mood was effectively relieved.

Sougo was enjoying his breakfast with Akilela serving him.

After Woz took his seat, he concentrated on recording the story the girl told.

"After the Knight War begins."

"Zhongyue City is completely out of control."

“First there was a power outage.”

“Then there was a water outage.”

"Finally, even the radio stopped broadcasting the news."

"The whole city is burning in a sea of ​​fire."

"The food at home can only last less than two days."

"But I didn't dare go out because those monsters were wandering around in the apartment."

"The smoke covered the sky and blocked out the sun, making it impossible to distinguish between day and night."

"I fainted from hunger again and again, and woke up from thirst again and again."

“I don’t know how long it has been.”

"The house shook violently, accompanied by piercing noises and screams."

"The whole building was tilting and I was huddled in the corner, watching the roof collapse."

"I survived by chance, but was buried in the rubble"

"The pain in my body makes screaming a luxury."

"Every breath I take feels like I am being tortured by slow slicing."

"I thought what was waiting for me was death in agony and despair."

“But a miracle happened.”

"The ruins of the building above were dug up by a knight."

“He reached out to me and held me tenderly in his arms.”

"My blood stained his armor, but he didn't care."

“He told me.”

"It's okay now, it was just a nightmare."

"Everything will be alright when I wake up."

When the girl said this, she could no longer hold back her tears.

She covered her mouth with her hands, trying to stop herself from crying out loud.

A girl's tears are the most powerful weapon that can touch people's hearts.

It's not just Sougo.
Even Aguilera was touched and her attitude became noticeably better.

"Take your time and talk. There's no need to rush." ​​Aguilera changed her previous attitude and gently comforted the girl.

"I slept peacefully in that knight's arms."

"When I woke up again"

“Everything has changed”

"I woke up in a hospital bed that smelled like disinfectant."

“My dead parents also reappeared before my eyes.”

"My mother cried and told me that I was unconscious due to a high fever."

"I slept for three whole days, and she was worried sick."

"My father, who was crying with joy, wanted to take me to the amusement park."

"I looked out the window of the ward at the outside world."

"Flowers, trees, sky, breeze, and clouds."

"Everything is so beautiful, there is no sign of damage."

"It's another beautiful day in Chongyue City, people are celebrating in the streets."

"Because during the few days I was in a coma, Chongyue City welcomed the God of War."

"Fantasy."

"He is the future president of [Fantasy Dream Group]."

"And that knight named Zi-O was the hero who saved Shigetake City."

"But it's as if he never existed. No one has even heard of his name."

"I asked my parents, and the doctors."

"But they said I had a burnt brain."

"later."

"I was sent to a mental hospital for psychiatric treatment."

“My parents love me very much and come to visit me every day.”

"only."

"The way they looked at me revealed deep fear."

“It’s like looking the devil in the face, looking into the eyes of a monster.”

"after that"

"I was discharged from the hospital and I walked around the city."

"Looking for the traces left by that knight."

"Until yesterday, I saw him again on the Internet."

"I know. He is the hero who saved me five years ago."

The girl's story ended with a relieved smile.

The atmosphere in the restaurant is surprisingly quiet.

There was only the rustling sound when writing.

finally.
Sougo broke the silence.
"I have a question"

Sougo looked at the girl and asked the question in his mind.

"please say."

The girl sat down gracefully, her expression extremely serious.

She knew that Sougo was the person she had been looking for.

Years of longing had already made her confused.

Even the [devil] imprisoned in the heart has become restless.

"You said you were unconscious."

"And how do you explain that pencil drawing?"

Sougo looked at the girl deeply, waiting for her to answer the question.

If nothing unexpected
That was Sougo's transformation when he obtained the second-level dial during the battle.

Based on the story told by the girl, we conduct a step-by-step analysis.

She should have been unconscious at that time.

Ask
How could the girl see this scene while she was unconscious?

Sougo's question also made Akilela come to her senses immediately.

Even Wozniacki, who was writing, stopped writing.

They need an explanation.

To this
“I originally thought it was a nightmare.”

"Until one day, time in the hospital suddenly stopped."

“Everyone in the hospital is stuck where they are.”

"A sister in a silver-gray dress appeared in my ward."

"She showed me the video. It was the scene when the knight transformed."

“She told me it was all true.”

"As long as I believe in the existence of Zi-O, we will meet again one day."

"correct."

“I even drew a picture for her.”

The girl said as she picked up her phone and pulled up another pencil drawing.

She was a pretty girl wearing silver-gray clothes and with a smile on her face.

See this picture.
Sougo's face turned extremely ugly.
Because the girl in the picture is exactly the group of people that Sougo least wants to meet!

Time robber.
