The Blood Knight’s Villains

My Villains Episode 221

47. Nightmare (3)

My head feels like it will break.

Waking up in a modern mansion is confusing enough, but not only Cole, but also Ellen Utequai Mungchi Heila came along here?

“I will turn around. What were you thinking, everyone?”

“It was an urgent situation. Phoenix-nim was sucked into the black disk, so I was trying to stop it.”

“You guys were sucked in as well?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

Cole, who was wearing a white straitjacket, rolled up his sleeves and rolled them up, but that didn’t look easy.

“I even remember being sucked into some kind of black hole. Finally, right after the princess came in, the entrance

was blocked and groan-”

The sleeves of the straitjacket were cumbersome, and the fabric was tough and thick. So, no matter how neatly you fold it, it ends up like a thick bracelet near your wrist.

Cole glanced around the room for a moment, tracking my whereabouts.

“Don’t you have a knife?”

“Does this look like a good place for such a thing?”

“…Do you know where this is?”

Cole, who was asking a question with a surprised face, said, ‘Ah!’ and exclaimed.

“When Phoenix-sama passed out while sitting on the throne, the vampire said something strange.”

“What do you mean?”

“I was astonished that Phoenix-nim was building a dream estate. When I noticed, it seemed that something unexpected had happened.”

Cole swallowed dryly as he scanned the unfamiliar objects around him.

“Then, is this the… dream territory created by Phoenix-sama?” “well?” After wrapping a stainless steel rod around the duvet cover on the bed Cole was lying on, he applied force and twisted it. The rod, which had been bent back and forth like a tong, broke with a blunt sound.

“I don’t know because it’s a place too unfamiliar to be in my dreams. And because it’s so quiet, it feels ominous.”

“Is that so?”

“uh. Give me your hand.”

Cole pushed out his saggy sleeves. After making a hole at an appropriate location with the sharp end of a stainless rod, I put my finger in and hung it.

“But, in the first place, dreams are arbitrary. I’m not even sure.”

As he pulled the sleeve, the dense fabric was ripped open with a ‘tud deuk’ sound.

“Anyway, it seems certain that this place is not real.”

“Why do you think so?”

“Isn’t it full of things you’ve never seen before?”

With both hands free, Cole bent his knuckles and slowly raised himself. Then, while examining the room, he found a small light-window and stood in front of it, giving a low exclamation.

“It is the same. There was no transparent glass like this in Remeric’s cathedral…

“Is this the time to admire? Get what you need quickly. go out.”

“Do you have any plans?”

“First of all, I have to find other colleagues. It might be tied up like you nearby.”

“I see.”

So while Cole searched the room, I looked through the skylight at the fence and said,

“…what?”

Can you see the gate?

I turned the corner in the hallway, so I could see the entrance of the mansion from this room.

A small pond with gently rippling water and a plowed stone pathway were visible through the well-groomed trees. And at the end of the road, there stood a tall gate, the material of which could not be determined whether it was iron or wood with a black luster.

…a black gate in a gray wall. It’s an unusual combination, but somehow I feel a sense of incongruity.

On the other hand, Cole was as calm as usual.

Since a resident of the Middle World came to Hyundai’s room, everything must have been unfamiliar and surprising, but it seemed that he understood the bizarreness of the situation and suppressed his curiosity for a while.

But aside from his composure, he couldn’t find anything useful. There were unresponsive interphones and plastic hangers, but you couldn’t use them as weapons.

“…Shall we look around from the inside?”

Cole, who followed me to the visit, opened his mouth slightly as he saw the cozy light emitted by the acrylic lights. After that, he regained his composure and quickly nodded.

“…that would be nice. Do you know which side is inside?”

“I woke up there. Follow me.”

Even though we didn’t speak separately, we kept our voices low. I took the first step, and Cole followed me silently.

at that time.

Suddenly, a strange sensation welled up in me.

– You said you would go back to that terrible place? self? How could you do such a stupid thing?

“Ugh”

Why are you doing this all of a sudden? Just like when I first woke up here, my head is pounding and my heart is stuffy…

“Phoenix-sama?”

“…umm nothing.”

He shook his hand roughly and forced his legs to move.

The headache and stuffiness

increased with each step, but I couldn’t squat down and wince. It was partly because he was worried about his colleagues who might be trapped somewhere, but he also didn’t want to embarrass Cole.

Half-conscious, I walked and reached my room.

A majestic piano sound is heard beyond the maroon door. familiar melody. Tempest 3 movement.

…uh? Even if the melody is the same, how do you know the name of the song? I’m completely new to music.

No, let’s put the question aside for a moment.

While I was still holding the stainless rod, Cole, who was following me, asked me a question.

“Why is that?”

Looking back, there was a look of wonder in his eyes.

“…can’t you hear this?”

“What do you mean?”

“The sound of the piano.”

“What is a piano?”

Cole, who narrowed his eyes, met his eyes blankly, but the sound of the piano grew louder and louder. Even the soft touch of the keys pierces the eardrum like thunder. Cole still had a face that he didn’t understand.

“…Haha, I’m going crazy.”

I couldn’t stand the frustration and threw the door open.

The sound of the piano cut off.

“Whoa whoa-”

He surveyed the room holding the stainless rod with trembling hands.

There was no one in the room.

After the piano sound that had been stinging my ears stopped, the headache and chest pain disappeared as if they were washed.

The son-in-law was still silent, but I forcibly suppressed the ominous feeling and searched each room with Cole.

“To think that there are no people in such a large mansion… What the hell are you doing here?”

There were a total of thirty-six doors lined up in the hallway curved in the shape of a letter ‘己’, and all of them were wide open. It was a trace of our search.

“…probably a facility to confine people.”

“Lock up people? You mean prison?”

“It’s pretty much the same.”

“But how do you know?”

“You were chained up like a prisoner and all the windows were locked. No, it wasn’t just locked, it was a structure that couldn’t be opened from the start.” “Isn’t it strange to have windows in a prison? If you put your mind to it, you can break the window and escape.”

A chuckle of laughter came out without my knowledge.

“Wouldn’t that be glass that breaks so easily?”

“…Are you saying it’s a magical item?”

“Not similar. And no matter how I break out, I don’t think the yard will be empty.”

“O uh”

—HB.

Cole, mesmerized by the silence, looked back while fixing the sack of a rolling pin he had obtained in a certain room.

“Then are you thinking of going downstairs?”

“It should be. Shouldn’t you look all over’?”

“you’re right.”

Cole licked his dry lips as if he was uncomfortable with something and muttered, ‘It would be nice if even a bug cried’.

Cole is just as master of a poker face as Heila. When a guy like that shows off his nervousness, instead of feeling anxious, he somehow puts his mind at ease. I guess I’m relieved that I’m not the only one who’s scared.

We slowly descended the stairs.

Unlike the cozy corridor that reminded me of a hotel, the stairs with thick fire doors had a very desolate atmosphere, perhaps because of the pale lighting. The floor was made of cold rubber, so every time the bottom of my bare feet fell, it made a ‘pop’ sound.

Even that small sound echoed inside the sealed stairwell and was amplified many times over, scratching my nerves.

All that could be seen beyond the handprint-free iron railing was the stairs leading down. If there were stairs leading to the upper floor or the rooftop, I would have been a little worried, but fortunately, it seems that the floor we were on was the highest floor.

After passing the stair landing and coming downstairs, I saw a fire door like the one I saw above blocking my way. After looking down the stairs to the lower floor for a while, I put my hand on the long button door with the words ‘press’ written in yellow on a red background.

It was at that moment that the strange thing happened.

I hadn’t even pressed the button yet, but a ‘clack’ sound came from the door.

Involuntarily, I took a deep breath and stepped back, and Cole also took a step back, aiming the sack at the fire door.

The one who appeared in front of us in bewilderment

was a warm-hearted lady.

“oh?”

Wearing a light-green nurse’s uniform, similar to what she would wear at an oriental clinic, and holding a black hardcover file on her chest, the lady looked at me and opened her eyes wide.

“Isn’t it time for a walk now?”

“…I beg your pardon?”

“And your patient.”

The middle-aged nurse opened the file and quickly flipped through the plastic pages. When I flipped through it using the large key of Phoenix, the papers stuck in the vinyl were all empty blank pages

. The nurse looked through the files and looked at Cole, frowning.

“Right. You don’t have permission to walk. How did you come out?”

After receiving the question, Cole turned to me with a wink in his eyes.

“…It seems to be the language of the East.”

It’s a sight that doesn’t understand words.

I left the call behind and parted my lips for a while before asking the nurse a question in familiar Korean.

“Where is this place?”

“yes?”

The nurse, who was frowning, burst out laughing and waved her hand.

“You look like you’re in a joke situation? Go back to your room before Chief Heo calls. Your patient is welcome too.”

She gave off the nuance of being fed up. Talking as if me and Cole were very familiar was like a play.

“…First, tell me where we are.”

“I’ll tell you when I get back to my room.”

The nurse who gave a picky answer closed the file and sighed heavily.

“And you know that the lady is coming in the afternoon, right? I will definitely report this, so you know that.”

“miss? What kind of girl are you?”

“You know that patient because he will tell Choi Gan. Come on, come on!”

The nurse said that and shoved my arm.

However, there was no way I would back down from the touch of an ordinary woman, and she burst into annoyance.

“Oh, why don’t you listen! Go back before you get angry!” “I don’t know what you are talking about, but where are the others?”

“This is my final warning. Are you calling Manager Heo?”

She took her phone out of her pocket with a stern expression on her face. Cole pressed himself closely to the light from his old-fashioned smartphone.

“Do you see that Phoenix-sama? It is a magic tool.”

“It’s not dangerous, so stay still.”

“What is that woman saying now? Are you able to speak?”

Cole looked sideways at me and asked, and the nurse screamed, her face flushed red.

“What are you doing without moving fast! I have to prepare dinner soon!”

“Phoenix-sama, something is strange-”

“Stay still, both of you!”

Cole clutched his head and screamed, but Cole, who flinched nervously with the rolling pin, and the nurse, who screamed loudly, glared at each other, building a misunderstanding.

“Ughh really-!” The nurse, who was shaking her fists, suddenly threw down the phone and file she was holding.

“I barely escaped the poop I used to wipe the backs of my old friends, but do I have to deal with these crazy bastards? why me?”

The nurse, who had had a warm impression until just a moment ago, had red blood on her face, and even her blood vessels began to bulge out.

“I was kicked out to such a place because I committed such a big sin? Is taking a few painkillers such a big mistake? C-X bastards!”

Cole, who had kicked his mobile phone down the stairs, aimed a rolling pin at the nurse who distorted her face.

“Phoenix-sama, what is this woman saying?”

Before I could answer, the nurse turned her head.

No, I wasn’t turning my head. His neck started twisting around 360 degrees.

“You fucking bastard-”

His long twisted neck made his head almost touch the ceiling, and thick needles sprouted from where his nails used to be.

“It’s time to take your medicine!”

I froze for a moment in front of the bizarre-looking nurse whose whole body was dyed red and blue and only her neck protruded.

I, who had attacked without hesitation even a troll several times bigger than the nurse in front of me or a ghoul dozens of times more terrible, was frightened.

At that moment, I realized what I had lost just before arriving in this world.

Fighting spirit, anger, hatred, vengeance.

A broken sense of superiority that can only be undone by defeating an opponent by force.

A cruel and filthy ego created by mixing the darkness of Kim Seung-soo and Phoenix.

The darkness that made me an undefeated warrior with that ego was completely ripped away.

“……Uh uh.” While I stupidly backed away, Cole threw himself at the nurse, or even the monster.

“Suck-!”

Thanks to not neglecting training, Cole, who has a body that exceeds the level of an ordinary person, threw a push rod with the vigor of a beast.

The sharp edge of the rolling pin lodged itself in the twisted neck, and the monster let out a deafening high-pitched scream.

“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!”

At the same time, the monster stretched out both arms and inserted a needle into Cole’s body.

“Keuw”

The thing on the monster’s hand was a thick needle, almost like a steel needle, but it didn’t seem to be seriously injured because it didn’t touch the vital part.

Cole let out a groan and kicked the ground again, but

“… Ugh.”

With a suppressed voice, he lost his balance and fell face down on the stairs.

“Co Cole!”

Until then, I had been trembling pathetically, and then I forced myself to take a step.

“X arm”

I thought, no matter how scared I was, I couldn’t watch my subordinate die right in front of my nose, and to my surprise, my body performed movements close to instinct.

He threw a spear or a stainless rod to pierce the monster’s stomach, then grabbed the monster’s leg and knocked it over at once. And he broke all of his arms so easily, as if he were touching a toy doll.

“…uh?” I felt the powerful body again, but on the other hand, a handful of courage rose from the fear that filled my chest.

Based on that courage, I grabbed the monster’s neck as it screamed. And just before tearing off the neck that stretched like a sundae with force in the mouth,

“Keep it off, Chief Heo! Chief Heo-!”

The monster, which had been screaming loudly, soon died with a thumping sound.

“Ha-ha-san—”

Before I could breathe a sigh of relief, I heard a distant thud.

It was a roar, similar to the one Drake had made as he rushed in.

I quickly grabbed the call and headed upstairs, feeling a handful of courage quickly sinking.
