Moonlight After Sunset's
[S2E45] Who are you

"Pacify yourself so you can see what's really going on."

*****************#####*****************

Long Dusk dives into his dreams until he is finally reunited with the monster. The monster now looked even more excited than before. He looked pleased with the arrival of Dusk, he smiled as he showed his sharp canines.

"You look so happy" said the twilight annoyed.

"Hahaha, look at the arrogant face of this boy. Wasn't the last time you screamed lazily to come to this place again but now...!"

"Cih," Dusk was lazy to argue long with the monster this time.

"What made you look for me so far?"

"It's not clear." The twilight showed its mischievous grin this time.

"I came to question this strange place." he continued indifferently.

"How dare this boy now." Although his speech was very arrogant but his tone sounded warm and comfortable.

"First, who are you? Why are you here and what is this place?"

"Hahaha, what kind of stupid question is that?"

"You, I'm asking you seriously you know."

"Hahaha, fine."

The monster was silent for a moment, he watched Dusk from head to toe. He looked at Dusk as if he was stripping it with a gaze that even Dusk himself did not know the meaning behind.

"But before that...,"

The monster tried to touch Dusk but swiftly Dusk managed to retreat so that only empty space was touched.

"You, what are you trying to do?"

"Haha."

The monster laughed again, he groaned in annoyance while pulling back his hand.

"This boy has grown up apparently."

Dusk turned his face indifferently. He was angry and scared at the same time, even so he tried to stay upright standing in his place.

"Don't try playing with me!" squeal at dusk while kicking the floor.

"Don't worry this time I'll just check your body."

"..."

Dusk stared in wonder at the monster as if he was asking 'are you sane.'

"Come here, I won't say it twice."

"Don't try to fool me."

"I didn't cheat you. Didn't you come here to know about your health?"

Silent twilight, he thought for a moment before deciding to step forward towards the monster.

"If this monster tries to deceive me then," Dusk has prepared a sharp dagger behind his clothing pocket. If something unwanted happens, he will attack her immediately.

A few steps later Dusk was already right in front of the monster. With one move the monster touched the forehead of Dusk. Unlike before this time Dusk only felt a warm feeling flowing throughout his body.

It felt like something broken was being repaired. He felt healthier and fitter even the drowsiness he had previously felt now disappeared.

"My name is Sera. I'm a guard in this room. I'm guarding this place for his noble successor."

The twilight was a little shocked, he did not even know what he was now seeing. The monster that had previously attacked her had now turned into a cute little girl.

"Who are you?" tanya Dusk after she managed to take over her mind.

Before the monster turned into a beautiful fairy, there was a bright light covering her eyesight. The light came from the monster earlier and after the light disappeared, Sera appeared.

"I, is what you wanted to find out beforehand."

"..."

Dusk frowned confusedly. What he was looking for was not a sweet child but the truth of this place.

"What are you looking for?" sera asked as Dusk looked panicked while glancing right and left.

"Where is that creepy monster?" Dusk did not answer, he asked back which made Sera laugh.

"That's me," Sera replied with a wide grin on her lips.

Dusk was surprised, his expression was like saying how could an ugly monster turn into a sweet girl like this.

"What you saw before was my astral form."

"Huh, what?" Dusk looks incredulous.

"I'm telling you the truth, whether you want to believe it or not."

"Alright." Dusk shook his head indifferently.

"Then can you explain all these phenomena about me?"

"certain."

"Wow, what is this place?" dusk was amazed by what he saw.

How can a dark room now turn into a room that looks so luxurious. There is a lot of beautiful and expensive furniture, and more important than that all is the architecture of this very beautiful room.

Old architecture made with beautiful sculptures from the hands of experts. Even in the world that is now rare there are buildings with classical architecture like this.

"Sit down." Sera invited Dusk to sit on one of her sofas. He then handed over some herbal drinks to Dusk.

"It's..."

"That's an herbal drink that can make your body become healthier." cut Sera when she saw the radiant face of Dusk.

"Thank you, wait a minute." Dusk again remembered with his main purpose to meet Sera.

"You haven't answered all my questions?"

"You're smart, but before that drink first. I'll tell you..."

"No, I need it now."

"Alright."

Sera then sat casually in front of Dusk. Before he started the story, Sera drank the herbal water in front of him first.

"I'm just going to tell you about your condition, and about this place..." Sera was silent while watching Dusk.

"You can find out for yourself, that's if you're lucky to find out." continued Sera after being quiet for a while.

"You mean?" Dusk frowned not understanding.

"I'll only say this once. Actually there are many doors to enter this place just not all can be opened easily. You're lucky that this place was opened by someone before and that person inherited his blood on you."

"..."

"That woman's blood flowing to you has made this place aware of its master so that the door opens automatically. But if you don't inherit his blood, even if you're part of his life you won't be able to get into this place."

"Wait a minute, you mean only people who have been recognized by this place can enter it, right?"

"More or less like that."

"It's kind of weird, if that's why my magic animal can get in here too?"

"That's because they also share blood with you. They are bound by a life and death contract with their master so that they can also enter this place just like you."

"..."

I thought for a moment about this place. If it was true that Sera said about this place then it was only natural that Duke and his subordinates could not find this place even though they had been on it for a long time.

"That's all I can say about this place."

"All right, I get it."

"Then I'll tell you a little bit about the condition of your body."

Dusk looks enthusiastic when Sera starts to tell about her physical condition. He had to think hard why his physical condition is so bad while his mental health is really healthy.

****

"Your meridians are being disturbed, you need to fix them immediately."

Sera's words continued to ring in the ears of Dusk. He could not understand what a true Meridian was.

"Miss," call Vanilla when Dusk looks gloomy since his return from the hill.

Honestly, neither Kun nor Vanilla knew where Dusk had gone since. They had also been watching Dusk since he had fallen asleep on the hill.

At first it looked fine until they became panicked as Dusk yelled while delirious with a strange language that they did not even understand at all.

"In my old life, I've never heard anyone speak that language at all." Kun's mind was disturbed.

"What's going on?" asked Kun when Dusk had regained consciousness.

"Nothing, I just need more rest." replied the twilight indifferently.

After coming out of Sera's house, Dusk looks lifeless. Not because Sera attacked him but because of the fact that his Meridians were damaged due to the energy that was too large in his body.

"Repairing Meridians," murmured Dusk quietly.

Sera said to immediately refine her Meridians as quickly as possible. Only then will his physical condition return to what it used to be. But the condition is that he must continue to be in this place.

"You lied." Kun again made Dusk aware of his daydream.

"You look weird when you wake up from your sleep. What exactly is going on with you right now?"

"I just need a break, isn't this what you and the boy want?"

"Surprisingly, you're so weird."

"Whatever."

Dusk then leaves Kun and Vanilla. He headed for the river that was not far from their current position.

"What the hell is going on?" vanilla did not understand.

"Nothing." Kun replied indifferently while still paying attention to the movements of his Miss.
