Chapter 221
My Villains Episode 221
47. nightmare(3)
I feel like my head will explode.
Waking up in a modern mansion was confusing enough, but not only Kol, but Ellen, Utequoi, Munchi, and Hayla followed him here.?
“I'm going to turn away. What on earth were you thinking, everyone??”
“It was an urgent situation. I was trying to stop Phoenix from getting sucked into the black disk.,”
“Even you guys were sucked in like that.?”
“yes, that's right.”
Cole, wearing a white straitjacket, had his sleeves rolled up, and it didn't look like it was going to be easy..
“I even remember being sucked into some kind of pitch-black cave. Finally, right after the princess came in,
My mouth was blocked, and I groaned.-”
The sleeves of the straitjacket were uncomfortably long and the fabric was tough and thick. So no matter how neatly you fold it, it ends up bunching up like a thick bracelet near your wrist..
Cole glanced around the room for a moment and then looked at my behavior..
“Do you have a knife??”
“Does this seem like a good place for something like that??”
“……do you know where this is?”
Cole, who was asking a question with a surprised face, said 'Ah!' I exclaimed..
“When Phoenix was sitting on the throne and losing consciousness, the vampire said something strange..”
“what to say?”
“I was astonished to hear that Poynix was building a dream territory. When I looked at it, it seemed like something unexpected had happened..”
Cole swallowed dryly as he looked at the unfamiliar objects around him..
“Well then, here is what Poinix made… … “Is this a dream territory?” "well?" He wrapped the stainless steel rod around the blanket on the bed where Cole was lying and twisted it with force. The bong, which had been swinging around like a taffy stick, broke as if torn apart with a blunt sound..
“I'm not sure because it's too unfamiliar a place to be in my dreams. And because it's so quiet, it feels ominous..”
“Is that so??”
“uh. Give me your hand.”
Cole held out his sagging sleeves. After making a hole in an appropriate location with the sharp cross section of a stainless steel rod, I inserted my finger and hung it..
“But, well, dreams are arbitrary. I'm not sure either..”
As I pulled on the sleeve, the dense fabric tore with a 'clack' sound..
“Anyway, I'm pretty sure this isn't real..”
“Why do you think so??”
“Isn't it full of things you've never seen before?.”
With both hands free, Cole cracked his knuckles and slowly stood up. Then, while looking around the room, he found a small light window, stood in front of it, and let out a low exclamation..
“This is also the same. Even the cathedral in Lemeric didn't have transparent glass like this.……
“Is now the time to be amazed? Quickly grab whatever you need. Get out.”
“do you have a plan?”
“First, I have to look for other colleagues. Because I might be tied up nearby like you..”
“Um, okay.”
While Cole searched the room, I looked at the wall through the skylight.,
“……Wow?”
I see the gate?
Perhaps because I turned a corner in the hallway, I could see the direction of the entrance to the mansion from this room..
A small, gently rippling pond and a stone-paved path were visible between well-groomed trees. And at the end of the road stood a large, shiny black door that could not be determined whether it was made of iron or wood..
……A black gate on a gray wall. It's a normal combination, but somehow I feel a sense of incongruity..
Meanwhile, Cole looked as calm as usual..
Now that the residents of Middle World have come to the modern room, everything must be unfamiliar and strange, but they seem to have suppressed their curiosity for a while as if they understood the strangeness of the situation..
However, despite his calmness, he could not find anything particularly useful. There were things like an unresponsive intercom and plastic clothes hangers, but those items couldn't be used as weapons..
“……Let’s take a look from the inside.?”
Cole, who followed me to the door, opened his mouth slightly when he saw the cozy light emitted by the acrylic lighting. Then I came back to my senses 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 say anything, we kept our voices very low. I walked first, and Kol followed me, making no sound..
at that time.
Suddenly a strange feeling arose..
-Are you going to go back to that horrible place? self? How could you do something so stupid??
“eww ”
Oh, why are you doing this all of a sudden? Just like when I first woke up here, my head hurts and my chest feels tight.…….
“Poinix?”
“……Um, nothing..”
I waved my hand roughly and forced my leg to move..
Headaches and frustration increase in intensity with every step.
It added up, but I couldn't just sit down and whine. It was partly because I was worried about my colleagues who might be trapped somewhere, but I also didn't want to seem embarrassed to Cole..
As I walked around, half out of my mind, I reached my room..
The sound of a grand piano can be heard beyond the maroon door. A familiar melody. Tempest 3rd movement.
……uh? Even if the melody is okay, how do you know the name of the song? I'm completely ignorant of music..
No, let's leave the question aside for a moment..
As I stopped and adjusted my grip on the stainless steel rod, Cole, who was following me, asked a question..
“why are you like this?”
When I looked back, there was a puzzlement in his eyes..
“……I can't hear this?”
“What do you mean??”
“piano sound.”
“What is piano??”
I made blank eye contact with Cole, who narrowed his eyes, and the sound of the piano grew louder. Even the sound of gently touching the keyboard pierces the eardrums like the sound of thunder. Cole still looked like he didn't know what was going on..
“……Ha, I'm going crazy.”
I couldn't bear the frustration and threw open the door..
Suddenly, the piano sound stopped..
“Whoo, whoo-”
I looked around the room, holding the stainless steel rod with trembling hands..
There was no one in the room.
After the piano sound that had been piercing my ears stopped, the headache and chest pain disappeared as if they had been washed away..
Although my son-in-law was still quiet, I suppressed the ominous feeling and searched each room with Cole..
“There is no one in such a large mansion... … . What on earth are you doing here??”
‘There were a total of thirty-six doors lined up in the 己-shaped hallway, and every one of them was wide open. It was a trace of our search left behind..
“……Probably, it was a facility to confine people..”
“Tracing people? Do you mean prison??”
“It's somewhat similar.”
“But how do you know that??”
“You were tied up like a prisoner, and all the windows were locked. No, it wasn’t just locked, it was so structured that it couldn’t be opened from the beginning.” “Isn’t it strange to have windows in a prison? If you want, you can break the glass window and escape..”
Without even realizing it, I started laughing..
“It's probably not glass that breaks that easily.?”
“……Are you saying it's a magical object??”
“It's similar. And no matter how I wake up and leave, I don't think the yard will be empty..”
“ O ugh”
—HB".
Cole, who was possessed by the silence, looked back while adjusting the handle of the rolling pin he had obtained from a certain room..
“So do you want to go downstairs??”
“That's how it should be. Shouldn’t we search through everything?‘?”
“you're right.”
Cole licked his dry lips as if he felt uncomfortable and muttered, 'It would be nice if bugs cried.'.
Cole is as master of the poker face as Heyla. When that guy ■ shows signs of being nervous, instead of making me anxious, I somehow feel relieved. Should I say that I feel reassured that I am not the only one who is scared?.
We walked down the stairs slowly..
Unlike the cozy hallway reminiscent of a hotel, the stairs with thick fire doors had a very desolate atmosphere, perhaps due to the pale lighting. The floor was made of cold rubber, so there was a 'snap' sound every time my bare feet fell..
Even that small sound echoed in the sealed staircase and was amplified several times, irritating my nerves..
All that was visible beyond the iron railing without any handprints was the stairs leading downward. I would have been a little worried if there had been stairs leading to the upper floor or the rooftop, but luckily the floor we were on seemed to be the highest floor..
As I passed the landing and came downstairs, I saw a fire door like the one seen above blocking my path. I looked down the stairs leading to the lower floor for a moment and placed my hand on the long button-type door with the word 'Push' written in yellow letters on a red background..
It was at that moment that something strange happened..
I hadn't even pressed the button yet, but there was a 'clunk' sound coming from the room door..
I unconsciously took a step back, holding my breath, and Cole also took a step back, aiming the gunny sack toward the fire door..
What appeared before us in confusion was,
She was a lady with a warm appearance..
“oh?”
The woman, wearing a light green nursing uniform that would be worn at an oriental medicine clinic and holding a black hardcover file on her chest, widened her eyes when she saw me..
“Now is not the time for a walk?”
“……What, yo?”
“And that patient.”
The middle-aged nurse opened the file and quickly flipped through the plastic pages. As I swiped through the large keys of Poynix, all the papers stuck in the plastic were blank and white.…….
At some point, the plastic pages that were busy turning came to a halt. The nurse looked at the file, then looked at Cole and frowned..
“That's right. You don't have permission to walk. How did you get out??”
After receiving the question, Cole blinked and looked back at me..
“……It seems like an eastern language..”
Looks like he doesn't understand what I'm saying.
I put the call behind me, licked my lips for a moment, and then asked the nurse a question in familiar Korean..
“Where is this place??”
“yes?”
The nurse who was frowning let out a quick laugh and waved her hand..
“Do you think this is a joke? Please go back to your room before Chief Heo calls you. That patient too, come on..”
She was giving off a hint of boredom. Me and Cole talking as if we were very familiar, it was like we were in a play..
“……First of all, please tell me where this is..”
“I'll tell you when I get back to my room..”
The nurse answered harshly, closed the file and sighed deeply..
“And, you know that the lady is coming in the afternoon, right? I will definitely report this to you, so please know that..”
“miss? What kind of girl are you??”
“The patient over there will also tell Choi Gan, so you know that. Come on, come on, come on.!”
The nurse said and pushed my arm..
But there was no way I would back down from the touch of an ordinary lady, and she suddenly got annoyed..
“Ah, why are you so disobedient! “Go back before you get angry!” “I don’t know what you’re talking about, but where are the others??”
“This is your final warning. I'm calling Director Heo, really.?”
She took out her cell phone from her pocket with a stern look on her face. Cole leaned in close to the light emitting from an old-fashioned smartphone..
“Poinix, do you see that? It's a magic tool..”
“It's not dangerous, so stay still..”
“What is that woman saying now? Are you making sense??”
When Cole asked me, looking sideways at me, the nurse shouted loudly with her face turning red..
“What are you doing if you don't move quickly? I need to prepare dinner soon.!”
“Poinix, something is strange.-”
“Stay still, both of you.!”
He grabbed his head and screamed, but Cole, who was very nervous and fidgeting with the push pin, and the nurse, who was screaming loudly, were glaring at each other, deepening the misunderstanding..
“Ugh, uh, really-!” The nurse, who was shaking her fist, suddenly threw away the cell phone and file she was holding..
“I barely escaped from the poop that I was cleaning after my old friends, but now I have to deal with these crazy bastards? why do i?”
The nurse, who had a calm expression just a moment ago, not only turned red in the face, but even her blood vessels began to bulge..
“What kind of crime have I committed that I was chased all the way to this place? Was taking a few painkillers such a big mistake? Those bastards!”
Cole kicked the cell phone that had fallen on the floor down the stairs and aimed the push pin at the nurse, whose face was contorted like a murderer..
“Poynix, what is this woman saying??”
Just before I could answer, the nurse turned her head..
No, I wasn't turning my head. My neck began to twist 360 degrees..
“You fucking bastard-”
The twisted neck stretched so long that the head rose as if it was touching the ceiling, and a thick injection needle sprouted from where the fingernail had been..
“It's time to take medicine-!”
In front of the strange-looking nurse, whose entire body was dyed red and blue and whose neck was elongated, I froze for a moment..
I was scared, having attacked without hesitation even a troll several times larger than the nurse in front of me or a ghoul dozens of times more terrifying..
At that moment, I realized what I had lost before arriving in this world..
Fighting spirit, anger, hatred, revenge.
A broken sense of superiority that can only be relieved by defeating an opponent with force, a twisted aesthetic intoxicated by the trajectory of a sword, a thirst for blood, an impulse to kill, and a desire to tear apart and destroy something beautiful and whole..
A cruel and dirty ego created by mixing the darkness of Kim Seung-soo and Poynix..
That ego, the darkness that made me an undefeated warrior, was completely torn away..
“••••••Uh, uh.” While I was foolishly backing away, Cole launched himself and attacked the nurse, no, the monster..
“Inhale-!”
Cole, who had a body that surpassed the average level thanks to his diligent training, lashed out with the force of a wild beast..
As the sharp end of the push pin stuck in the twisted neck, the monster screamed at a high pitch that made my ears explode..
“Kyaaaah, you bastard-!”
With that, the monster stretched both arms and inserted the needle into Cole's body..
“Ugh,”
The thing in the monster's hand was a thick needle, almost like an iron needle, but it didn't seem to cause any serious damage because it didn't hit the vital area..
Cole groaned and kicked the ground again.,
“••••••Ugh.”
He let out a suppressed voice and lost his balance and fell down the stairs..
“nose, call!”
Until then, I was trembling miserably, but I forced myself to take a step..
“X arm,”
With the thought that no matter how scared I was, I couldn't watch my subordinate die right in front of me, surprisingly, my body performed a movement that was close to instinct..
He threw a spear, or rather a stainless steel rod, and pierced the monster's stomach, then grabbed its legs and knocked it down in one fell swoop. And he broke all his arms so easily, as if he was touching a toy doll..
“……uh?" I once again felt the strength of my body, but at the same time, a glimmer of courage rose up amidst the fear filling my heart..
With that courage, I grabbed the screaming monster by the neck. And right before I apply force to the anglerfish and rip off the neck that hangs down like a sundae.,
“Ugh, huh, manager! Director Heo-!”
The monster, which was screaming loudly, soon died with a crunching sound..
“Ha, ha, Mr.—”
Before I could sigh in relief, I heard a pounding sound from far away..
It was a roar similar to the one I saw a while ago when Drake attacked.…….
I felt the handful of courage I had welling up quickly subside, so I quickly took the call and headed upstairs..
