Chereads / Dream Tower / Chapter 45 - Chapter 44

Chapter 45 - Chapter 44

Two days later

Inside the abandoned building Nouvel looked out and narrowed his eyes slightly

So far they've collected 8 crystals and fought five members of the seven deadly sins

Gluttony, wrath, greed, sloth, and lust, only two more are left which is envy and pride

Thinking of the word pride Nouvel had a headache, pride definitely doesn't sound good at all

Without Eleri and the others it's hopeless to fight them

'I should just regress back--'

Suddenly the hem of his clothes was pulled and Nouvel flinched, looked down to see the child

He totally forgot that this child- no, the destruction is still here

Suddenly the child spoke and said "When will we regress back to when she is still alive?" The child asked which was heard by Yuki and the others

They turned their heads towards Nouvel as if asking the same thing

Nouvel stared at them

It's the first time that he felt he needed to be with them aswell

Even though he will only regress and still be with them it's different when they already have experienced what was supposed to happen

After a long time of pondering he sighed and said "Alright, let's regress back everyone"

****

Waking up Eleri slowly opened her heavy eyelids and saw that she was back when she was still in the game with the sin of greed Mamon

'It worked' Eleri thought

She had a conclusion that the last time she regressed wasn't the last time and so tested it

Ofcourse she also did it because of the child who resembled her past

"Hey! L? What's wrong?"

Turning my head I saw Kaylus, Light, and Azrail

Seeing Azrail and Light who are still alive I couldn't help tearing up but held it back

Shaking my head I said "It's nothing"

I then turend serious as I said "Gather everyone except for Eru, he will handle the sin of greed"

Light and Azrail were surprised only Kaylus wasn't which already confirmed my theory that he knew about Eru's plan

Nodding their heads they searched for the others while I bit my finger in annoyance

Those demons…

My eyes shone with murderous intent as I thought 'I'll make them pay for killing my people'

Minutes later everyone finally gathered and just as I was about to say something I noticed that the way Novel, Caesar, Yuki, and Yukio looked at me are very strange

I couldn't tell what it is but I ignored it and said in a whisper "The next game…we might get separated"

"That's why, I need you, Light"

Nodding his head Light asked "What is it?"

Walking towards him I whispered in his ear and hearing this he widened his eyes before narrowing them as he grinned and said "No problem, I'll do it"

I smirked as I saw this and just then I heard the familiar voice

-- Ding!

--Congratulations for the dreamers in successfully killing the target Mammon the sin of greed!

"What?!""Someone has already killed the target?""So fast?"

Hearing the deja vu voices I snorted

That's Eru alright, though I wonder what happened to them after I died…

Thinking of this my eyes drooped as I hint of sadness flashed before it

Unbeknownst to me Nouvel who was staring at me the whole time, observing every bit of expression I'm making narrowed his eyes as he murmured "It's her"

-- Ding!

-- The hidden game is now ending, the game will now proceed to the next hidden game!

Taking a deep breath she said "This is it everyone, remember, avoid the danger while I'm not there understand?"

Everyone was confused Eleri was so obsessed in them avoiding danger so much but obediently nodded their heads

Suddenly our consciousness disappeared and before she knew it she opened her eyes to see the familiar mist

-- Ding!

-- This game is a bonus round and the dreamers will receive 4 crystals in total if completed

Hearing this Eleri slowly stood up

Looking around Eleri confirmed that there is no danger around and called out "Now"

Suddenly my shadows moved and deformed into eight silhouettes

Just like that Light and the others appeared before me

This is one of Light's power to attach each other's shadow and summon them

But it can only work if person he wants to attach the shadow is near him but because in my previous life we were already separated before he could attach it we weren't able to summon each other

Smiling Eleri sighed in relief as she thought 'I will change it, our fate'

Suddenly I heard a familiar growl sound and I grinned as I said "Alright now everyone, how about we do some training?"

"I thought you said to avoid danger?" Light asked with one eyebrow

Laughing Eleri said "I said when I'm not around but I'm here aren't I?"

"Well that's true but--"

"Just shut up and let's fight will ya?" Eleri growled

Just then the familiar giant cerberus appeared

Kaylus grinned as he said "Stand back everyone"

Seeing him come forward Eleri smiled as she said "As you wish"

Kaylus smirked and said "This one's my toy"

Releasing the strings Kaylus said with a smile "Game on"

Hearing this Eleri looked up at the starless sky and clenched her fist as she thought 'Indeed, game on. This time, I will not let any of you die'
