Chapter 3 - Chapter 2

"--He did it all for merely a revenge"

Draven was silent for a moment before he asked [How do you say so?]

Pointing her index finger she said "The police said that they found that the killer's purpose is neither the items of the shop nor the money so greed is most likely not it"

Draven [Then are you saying the killer James William wanted revenge on his friend?]

"No, not on his friends but on the aristocrats"

Draven [Aristocrats?]

The woman smiled and nodded as she said "Yes, aristocrats. Remember, the boutique they own are the only boutique in the entire Eden and the boutique they own are connected to aristocrats such as the jewellery, shoes, and clothes. So if the owners are gone then where will they buy those items?"

Draven [I see, I get it now what your point is but why did James want revenge on his own aristocrat kind?]

The woman closed her eyes as she had nostalgia about the past

Back then she bypassed an aristocrat who bullied the commoner kid who was just asking for bread and no one else but her helped that kid no matter how many people were on the side

She suddenly felt her heart aching as she heaved a sigh and opened her eyes and said "Maybe because just like me he hated the fact that while the aristocrat enjoys the wealth they bully the commoners for their poor"

Draven fell into silence as he heard this and didn't speak anymore.

[Time Limit: 00:42:12]

Sighing the woman stood up and placed her hand on her coat pocket as she said "For answer number one 'James William killed his friends for revenge on the aristocrat'"

- Aswer for question number one is correct!

As she heard the sound she closed her eyes and laid down on the sofa.

Opening her heavy eyelids she noticed that she was back to reality and sat up from the bed. Touching the soft familiar mattress she heaved a sigh of relief

Seeing these Eleri was quite satisfied and turned her head towards the time and saw that it was 9 am in the morning

Picking up her phone she saw that she had missed calls and was annoyed when she saw who the caller was but reluctantly called the person back

Beep--

-- Hello?

"It's me, why did you call earlier?"

-- Ah it's you detective L, uhm about that I need your help

"For what?"

-- It's about a missing case of a child, female, seven years old, she was just playing in the playground when her mother was suddenly called by someone and the moment she looked back her daughter was already missing and hadn't come home yet for three days

Hearing this she said "Alright, send me the location and I'll be there in an hour"

-- Really? Thank you so much detective L and sorry for bothering you

Eleri waved her hand as she said "It's fine Caelab, in return buy me a drink will you?"

-- Yes ofcourse!

"Alright see you in an hour"

Beep--

Hanging up the call Eleri sighed before she packed up her things. That's right, she is a detective code named "L" and the one she called named Caelab was her colleague, a starter detective

About the mystery problem she just solved that was a game, to be more precise a life and death game. That was her first game of the 'Dream Tower' and whenever she sleeps she will be playing different life and death games based on the floors

And she is not alone when playing this game, currently there are also other people playing the game as her but it was still a secret to the world

After packing up her things carrying a small black backpack she left her apartment and went to the location sent by Caelab

Chu-Chu-

Entering the train Eleri sat beside the door and opened her phone

But suddenly just as the train started Eleri suddenly heard a familiar mechanical voice which made her eyes shook

-Ding!

- Game Loading

- Dream Tower is about to begin

"What?!" Eleri was startled and immediately looked around and just as she thought the people around also heard it

"What was that?""Is it a new program on the train?"

Eleri frowned and thought 'Why? How? Isn't is supposed to be a game whenever we sleep? So how?'

'Unless…'

She suddenly felt a chill down her spine and looked out the window

Outside there was a gigantic blue screen that covered the whole sky as it said [Welcome to the Game of the Dream Tower dear players!]

Boom!

Suddenly from the ocean a white tower suddenly emerged from it as the blue screen said [Climb up the tower and you shall have any desire granted]

'No way…is it really-! The meaning of the dream tower is not about dreams the whole time but instead it was-!'

[The Dream Tower gives the people any of their dreams or more fitting desire they've always wanted!]

Only at this time did I realize that the catastrophe--

-- Had just begun
