Ran simply confessed her short dream. In the dark, she talked softly as if she were talking about the old days, and Eustaf listened to the story and said.
"That's a strange dream."
"Right? If you're going to dream about it anyway, it would be nice if there was something that could defeat the darkness more in earnest."
"It can't be that easy."
Ran grinned at Eustaf's words. With a boy-like smile, Eustaf naturally smiled face to face.
"But I'm glad, Because there's Eus."
"I'm glad, too. Cause there's Ran."
Ran hesitated for a moment and spoke in a smaller voice.
"Eus."
"Yes."
Her voice got smaller as well.
"I think I'll be fine if I don't move my thighs a lot...."
When I looked at him with a blur of the end of my word, Eustaf stood half-up without a sound. However, there was still hesitation, so Ran stretched out her arms and said,
"Be gentle and sweet."
Eustaf hugged her with a smile. His hand slides up her chemise.
"I'll be sweet and gentle to you."
*******
On the second day, Eustaf opened his eyes at dawn. It was almost dawn. It's an early wake-up call from a habit.
He had no intention of waking Ran up at this time, so he kissed her sleeping white shoulder and got out of bed.
Ran was asleep without knowing the world.
Eustaf went back to his room, changed his clothes, and got ready.
As dawn began, Soda coughed and opened the curtains and said.
"Madam, it's time for you to get up."
I'd like to let her sleep more normally, but she's in battle now.
Ran's life was also going with her soldiers.
"Madam, wake up."
Or are you going to open the window? That's what Dimodia called Ran cheerfully.
However, there was no response in bed, so the two women mumbled head to head.
"She's not waking up."
"The duke might have bothered her too much last night."
"Oh my? Madam is injured!"
"Shameless!"
I glanced at the bed after exchanging so much, but it still didn't respond. Kara, who came inside, asked with a curious look.
"Didn't she wake up yet?"
"Yes, she's sleeping well."
As Soda blushed, Kara coughed in vain and approached the bed.
"Madam, it's time to wake up."
But there was no response. Kara said, "Excuse me," and gently shook Ran over the blanket.
"Madam, madam."
The faces of Soda and Dimodia hardened. Kara was also surprised and shook her hard.
"Mrs. Ran?"
It's strange that it doesn't happen even if you shake it like this. Kara said as she stepped back.
"Call the doctor. Soda, with me and Madam ······."
"Yes, yes."
Dimodia quickly withdrew, and Soda helped Kara to refine Ran's clothing. There was nothing wrong on the surface. It just looked like she fell asleep.
The only problem was not waking up.
The therapist ran over and looked around and made the same conclusion.
He wiped the sweat off his forehead embarrassingly. He then fed and smelled stimulants to Ran, but Ran did not budge.
After hearing the news, Eustaf also ran into the shade of a tree, the Duchess's bedroom.
"Ran?"
Looking at Ran sleeping with such a peaceful face, Eustaf called her low.
"Ran, Ran? Ran!"
He shook her shoulder and let it go. His blue eyes were filled with emotionless light, and the healer swallowed his breath and lowered his gaze.
"What happened?"
"I don't know. From the examination board, she don't have any other pain...."
Then Eustaf turned and strode to him, and the healer groaned and shrank. However, Eustaf passed through him and opened the terrace door.
"Haresh."
When he called, Haresh appeared on the terrace like a lie. He said with a frown.
"Did you know I'd come?"
"Ran won't open her eyes."
At his words, Haresh opened his eyes wide and walked quickly inside. Shareia followed in like a shadow.
Haresh looked around at Ran's sleeping body and frowned.
"She's sleeping. That's true - usually these symptoms are....."
"It's magic."
Speaking as if singing, Shareia took a step forward.
Her mirror-like silver eyes looked at Ran. She whispered.
"I think she's dreaming. That's an old dream."
At the words, Eustaf bit his teeth.
"The Viridescent Crown."
He picked up the crown on her table. Kara screamed and prevented him from trying to break it by throwing it.
"Master Duke!"
Shareia also sounded surprised.
"She may not be able to come back when wake up."
Eustaf looked at the crown with a scratch. He bit his lips.
It was something I could think about enough, but I couldn't think of it properly because the string was broken in my head.
He held out the crown to Shareia.
Shareia carefully received the crown with both hands.
Blink.
A small spark occurred, and Shareia and Eustaf flinched. Eustaf looked around the Ran, but Ran was still asleep.
Shareia looked at the emerald Crown and said.
"Mrs. Ran will be fine. She just fell asleep."
"If she don't wake up like this?"
At Eustaf's words, Shariah looked at Ran and said after looking at the crown again.
"I don't think so. It's would have drawn her to sleep because it's had something It's wanted to say."
Then the person who hears the story must wake up. Eustaf saw Shareia. He turned his eyes away when he saw she reflected in her eyes of him.
"Okay, then I'll ask for Ran."
At Eustaf's words, Shareia knock the floor with her right heel. Haresh added from the side.
"Let's leave it up to you."
"Human beings don't do this?"
Shareiah looked back at Haresh and asked, and he nodded. Eustaf was relieved that the two didn't look serious.
Then, by tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, they might yawn calmly and say, "I had a dream." Like last night. No, it will.
Eustaf nodded and left the room. There was nothing more he could do. As the Duke of Lazia, as a gatekeeper, all he has to do is outside.
'It's okay, Ran's gonna be okay.'
He swallowed the word several times in his mind. If he knew Ran, he would win any adversity and come back.
Eustaf headed for the snow wall, soothing his mind.
Masu and Dragons have been quiet since the shocking incident last night. It was a short break for a long time. The soldiers saluted Eustaf.
"What about Master?"
Lumiere, who was standing on the wall, asked. He had just heard the news, too. Eustaf also briefly explained the situation to Lumiere, and he groaned and said.
"Really, why does something disturbing happen when she closed her eyes?"
Eustaf smirked at the words. Lumiere felt strange at the sight of the smile. I've never imagined myself and him talking so nonchalantly.
Lumiere suddenly curious and asked.
"Duke, can I try one?"
Eustaf glanced at him. Lumie asked without hesitation because it was permission to have no answer.
"What if I took my master and ran away from Lazia?"
There was a smile on Eustaf's lips.
It was a cold, raw, sweet smile. Eustaf spoke smoothly.
"Are you really curious?"
"No, I'm sure now."
With a grin, Lumiere replied, Eustaf turned his eyes squarely.
'This must have been followed to the end of the earth.'
I guessed so. And Lumiere himself will be crucified, and the master will be....
Lumiere stopped thinking quickly.
He still liked Ran. But it was another affection, and I like Sina
It was different from liking Ran.
If his affection for Ran was religious and blind, his affection with Sina was sweeter, softer, and he wanted to get to know her endlessly.
'Thinking about it, I miss her.'
Lumiere thought so and looked ahead just like Eustaf. Who could have imagined that he was a knight of the Lazian duke?
Lumiere honestly thought there would be a deserter. Or the servant of the Sky mansion or maid could run away.
But not a single person ran away.
Even in this situation, everyone was wearing uniforms, armor, and united with loyalty to Lazia.
"Will he come today?"
When Lumiere asked so, Eustaf replied briefly, "Well." Then Passen approached from over there. Dwarf, with an ax on his shoulder, grumbled.
"You said the Elves are here, right?"
"Yes."
Eustaf nodded.
"What a bunch of bunny ears. I'm drawing attention with something that's flashy. Well, don't forget we fought together longer."
"Of course."
Eustaf nodded.
"Rabbit ears, that's too much."
In a sudden voice, Passen looked back and said, "Tuca!" and stepped back, spouting a word that seemed to be a dwarf curse. Shareia was standing.
Shareia smiled.
"Long time no see, race in the underground."
"Underrgound! It's the most beautiful underground city in the world! You uncivilized grassman who can't even build buildings."
"A grassman....."
Shareia opened her eyes wide. She laughed several times in her mouth, expressing interesting whether the word was fresh. It was a cheerful laugh like a bell.
"The cavemen are pleasant."
"The cavemen!"
Passen jumped and grabbed the back of his neck, and Lumie swallowed a smile. Shareia gently looked at the sky and looked straight ahead.
"I won't be here for a couple of days. The darkness must have taken a heavy toll. But I have something important to tell you."
Eustaf's mouth is slightly stiff.
"Is it about Ran?"
"No, it's not."
Shareia lowered her voice.
"I have something to tell you about the crystal around here."
Eustaf nodded and said.
"Let's go to the conference room."
*******
Ran looked down at her hand.
'Transparent.'
She looked up and looked around.
'Is it because it was a thousand years ago, or what a dresser is.'
Compared to what they're wearing now, they were armed in a real beggarly fashion.
The weapons were so crude that I wondered how to fight monsters with such weapons.
However, it was interesting to see humans, elves, and dwarfs armed and mixed.
'I know it's a dream again....'
Ran walked slowly through the crowd into the barracks. At first, there was a little resistance to just passing through the cloth, but after passing it once, it was surprisingly comfortable.
The tent was noisy.
The elf, who tied his platinum hair tightly, shouted loudly.
"So we're not the only ones consuming!"
"Don't waste it! How many times do you think our dwarves have died?"
"Aren't you both just emphasizing self-sacrifice?"
"A weak man who can't help is out."
"What?"
With the operation table in front, people who seemed to be representatives of each race gathered and were clamoring.
All of them were full of nervousness on their faces with accumulated fatigue. The same was true for Iveria the Great Sage.
Iveria, who was listening, rubbed her temples to see if she had a headache, said low.
"Everyone, stop it."
Then three people shouted at the same time.
"But!"
Ran laughed unknowingly and quickly closed her mouth. Iveria looked at the board on the table for a moment and said, "Then I'll take this field on my own."
"Eve!"
Delphanto, standing behind her, shouted. Iveria grinned.
"It's all right."
Dwarf, Elf, and the human representatives exchanged views. The red-headed woman, the human representative, spoke politely.
"You can't be the only one to let go alone."
"That's right."
The head of the Elf also nodded. Dwarf sighed, too.
Iveria laughed.
"No, I think I'd be better off alone. Rather than going with people who fight like this."
At the pinch, the three of them coughed in vain and turned their eyes. Iveria shook her hand.
"That's what happened, so get out."
The three hesitated and exchanged glances.
Ran frowned at the sight.
'Is this how it works?'
As if to match her heart, Delphanto grabbed Iveria by the shoulder.
"Are you crazy?"
"I'm not crazy. Look, the east mountain range is narrow, so I can do it alone. And now the darkness is small. This is the last one."
"Are you going to be the last?"
"I'm not."
Iveria frowned, opening the tent wide and Lazia came in.
The young man with black hair was using his impression as he could.
"Are you out of your mind? Is it true that you said you'd handle the eastern mountain range alone?"
"Yes."
As she nodded, Lazia shouted, "Ms Iveria!" and looked back at Delphanto.
"Stop her."
"Does she listen to me?"
Delphanto said so and looked at Lazia. Sneaking away from the dragon's eyes, Lazia said.
"Then me and my unit will go together."
"You can't do that. Why concentrate on firepower? Besides, Lazia is an elite unit. But if you don't-"
"My loyalty isn't to the Flies anyway. I will go with Iveria. If we die, we die together."
At Lazia's words, Iveria frowned and Delphanto laughed.
"I love Lazia, too."
"That's a thank you."
Lazia said so and sighed.
Ran nodded her head.
'For no reason, Lazia didn't become a gatekeeper. Come to think of it, the first Lazian document said, 'You liked Delphanto, too. And there was a scene where Iveria talked.'
The three of them looked good, so my heart ached
How did Delphanto end up like that?
I thought so, but the scene went by as quickly as if I had caught a cold.
