But another week later, in the special isolation ward where the comatose were placed, there was a singing voice that sounded like a man and a woman, like a child and an old man, like a love song and a nostalgic song, and it was every night. Such an unidentified voice sounded.

After sending people to investigate, it was soon found that the patients who were dragged into the dream and fell asleep were singing. They were using this nostalgic and heart-wrenching melody to drag the people around them into the same dream. The evidence is that the guarding soldiers also fell asleep one after another.

Therefore, Yongye boldly used the Silver Eyes who were defeated in the Northern War, and ordered them to become the new guards of the separation wall by relying on the identity of the patriarch that was forcibly captured.

Silver-eyed people are like fallen ghosts, cannibals are very similar to humans, but they are not human, so there is no danger of turning into beasts, so they can be used with confidence. As for the issue of loyalty... On the human site, he has no It is necessary to worry that the Silver Eyes dare to mess around.

It's just that the quarantine area has just been resolved, but Lilia's situation has become more serious. After Yong Ye learned the news, he immediately pulled out of the plan and rushed home.

"—Lilia! What's the matter with you??"

"No, nothing."

"…Aha??"

"I just miss you a little. After all, Yong Ye has been busy with "Underground Ark" recently. I am a little lonely."

The girl lying on the bed returned a bright smile to Yong Ye, who hurriedly rushed into the door. It seemed that there was no major problem. Yong Ye, who was busy at first, wanted to be angry, but there was no way to be angry.

Now is Lilia's vulnerable time, and he needs to be busy with the "Ark Underground", regardless of whether the plan is successful or not, Yongye will be separated from her for a long time, whether it is to leave when the world is destroyed, or Time freeze successfully and everyone falls asleep.

"...You kid, really..."

Not knowing how to get angry, Yong Ye could only sit by the bed with a wry smile.

"Actually, it's not that there is nothing at all, um... I have been dreaming continuously recently, and I have a hunch that I may not be able to wake up after falling asleep."

"…real?"

Suddenly being told of the bad situation, Yong Ye couldn't keep calm for a while.

"Well, so... I think I might never wake up again, and I'm a little scared. I've never been scared of the Star God, but now I'm scared to sleep, haha~ It's funny, right?"

Yong Ye could notice that although the girl was laughing, her hands were trembling slightly. Obviously, she was really afraid of falling asleep.

Those who dream of that situation repeatedly will sooner or later be included in the dream and become unable to wake up. Lilia also knows this, so she is afraid.

But in this situation, Yong Ye is completely powerless, there is nothing he can do, he is helpless against dreams and drowsiness.

"...Don't be afraid, I'll be by your side. Even if you fall asleep, I will definitely wake you up."

It was a lie without a doubt.

"Really?"

"Of course."

"Um~ what's the guarantee?"

"This... I promise you."

For things that are not certain, Yongye will not easily guarantee, especially those who value him, but now he is still lying, and Lilia knows that the agreement itself is not reliable at all, but she still feels at ease. He grabbed Yong Ye's hand and put it on his face.

"I trust my father."

"...Don't call me father at this time?"

"Well, I believe in Yong Ye, but ~ at this time, it should be a good night kiss, right? Ordinary people will do it, so... I want to try it once."

Lilia rarely did not refute, but nodded obediently, and then looked at him like a spoiled child.

"...if the forehead is okay."

"I want to be here."

The girl pointed to her pink lips.

"That's a little bit later, isn't it?"

"Really? I feel quite ordinary. Many parents will kiss here."

"But I'm not your real parents, and the actual age difference isn't too big... At least that's what it looks like."

"Okay okay~ I know Yong Ye is a shy person, if that's the case... Then here it is?"

Unexpectedly, Lilia slipped her index finger to her cheek.

"In that case...it's nothing."

After hesitating for a while, Yong Ye felt that it was normal for just the face, so he simply leaned down, with a sense of guilt for the unsure agreement, closed his eyes and kissed the girl's pale face because of prostration. down.

But... at the last moment, the girl suddenly turned her head.

The cold and soft lips made Yong Ye realize that something was wrong and opened his eyes for the first time. What he saw was not the side face but the girl's closed eyes, and her face that turned red in a moment.

Now he knew what he was kissing.

"Hey you……"

"Haha, I succeeded~ Yong Ye was taken aback, right?"

"…what?"

I don't know what to say, Yong Ye was a little dumbfounded, but the girl closed her eyes and made an appearance of going to sleep. She held Yong Ye's hand and slowly released it, revealing the careless relationship with her. Personality a bit inconsistent, cute smile.

"Be sure to wake me up tomorrow, I'll be sure to wait--how long,"

"Well...tomorrow, I will definitely call you."

On this day, Yong Ye stayed by the side, chatting with the girl who had not fallen asleep, accompany her to look forward to the future without purpose, and said that she would go to the famous tourist city of the empire until she fell asleep with a peaceful smile on her face. go.

This night, Yong Ye didn't close his eyes, just stood by, until the next day when the girl woke up at dusk, but she didn't wait for the girl to wake up.

The sleepy girl, no matter how she called her, how she shook her, how she called her name, her eyes would not open.

In the end there is no way to wake the sleeper, Yong Ye does not know, he hates his own weakness, curses his weakness, has nowhere to vent his irritability, and his powerless anger, let him punch the wall like a vent.

If it was the wall that was broken in the past, it would only be the wall, but now it was his fist that was broken, and the wall was just cracked. The maids and doctors serving on the side exclaimed and hurriedly helped him bandage the wound, and wanted to find a magician. treat.

However, Yong Ye stopped them and just sat by the bed in a daze until the sun went down.

Promises are often beautiful, but reality is always cruel.

In the middle of the night, Yong Ye walked along the promenade near his home, and kept going forward aimlessly. Finally, he sat on the bench by the river bank and looked up at the moon, and kept pouring wine into his mouth.

In the daytime, this road is one of the places where the residents of the imperial capital rest. Some people are walking, some jogging, some people take a boat to visit the river, and some wandering entertainers play and jump for money. There are many kinds of people here, of course... Now The current situation is turbulent, and many people are afraid to go out at night.

So as soon as the sun goes down, those people will go home with nothing left.
