"Damn! You're a raven! Are you a spy from Akaiakuma!?" Tsuha immediately guessed.
"Rather than spies, I'm just a guard" the crow spoke.
Tsuha and Arthur immediately widened their eyes.
"DANGERS!!! SHOOOOOOK! BWOSH!"
Tsuha immediately threw the crow away loudly. A white light enveloped the crow, followed by a wind that ravaged the room of Tsuha and Arthur.
White hair in a mule style is seen in the eyes of Tsuha and Arthur.
"Eh! Judge Shinrin!?" Tsuha and Arthur let out their voices together.
"Yo" Ha nashi greeted the two by raising his right palm.
...****************...
Arthur and Tsuha are shocked to see Shinrin's top brass turn themselves into ravens.
Tsuha immediately stood up and pointed at Ha nashi.
"You! What nation?!"
Tsuha was already preparing to pull out her mana sword. So too with Arthur. He had already taken out his mana sword and was in a standby pose.
Ha Nashi raised both of his hands as high as his shoulders.
"Of course the Human Nation. It's just a privilege I get. Just relax, son, I'm not from the Demon or Elf group" Singung Ha Nashi smiled.
Tsuha and Arthur can't just believe it.
"Arthurian. He is indeed of the Human Nation. He is, the right hand of King Akaiakuma. I know him. He's Mr. Ha nashi and he's a good guy" Archie opened his mouth after a day of silence.
"You're not lying?"
"Of course not stupid! What's in it for me to lie to you" Archie said.
Arthur instantly removed his mana sword and patted Tsuha's right shoulder.
"Tsuha. Archie. He is indeed from the Human Nation" Arthur did not say that Ha nashi was from Akaiakuma.
Tsuha glanced at Arthur a glance later, she removed her green mana sword.
Ha Nashi showed his smile and walked towards Arthur. Tsuha is uncomfortable with Ha nashi's existence. He stood in front of Arthur to stop him.
Ha nashi, put his right palm on his left chest and bowed slowly.
"Sorry for his impoliteness, Prince Aosora Arthur" Ha nashi bowed in salute to Arthur.
Arthur patted Tsuha's right shoulder to get out of the way.
"Curtain!" Tsuha screeched after getting the code. He walked up to his bed and looked at Ha nashi with a sharp look.
Ha nashi lifted his gaze.
"Sir, are you here to meet Archie?" Arthur pulls up his study chair and lets Ha nashi sit there.
Ha Nashi sits down after getting permission from Arthur.
"Actually, I'm here because I need your help to release the seal that locked King De luce Archie" Ha nashi directly spoke to the point and avoided pleasantries.
Arthur scratched his nape and chuckled lightly while sitting on his bed.
"Yes. I already have such a plan. In four days, I will return to Aosora. There, I'll try to free Archie's body. You don't have to rush" Arthur explained, nodding softly.
Ha Nashi, folded his fingers over his knees.
"Look Prince, His Majesty Archie has made a pact with His Majesty Mizel. I came here to remind you and His Majesty Archie" Ha Nashi explained.
"Yes, I didn't forget about it and Archie didn't forget either. Please wait a minute"
In the position of Tsuha who heard the conversation of two people - Eh! three creatures. He slammed in throughout the conversation.
"What agreement did the two of them make with King Akaiakuma? Why is this fool, so fond of dealing with the devil nation? Goddamnit! This is what makes you, targeted by dangerous demons!"
Tsuha doesn't know what Arthur's thinking. He was upset with every act of Arthur that always endanger his life.
Shortly after, Ha Nashi says goodbye to Arthur and Tsuha. Ha Nashi trusted the two teenagers. He was sure that both would keep his secret.
Tsuha looks at Arthur in front of her while reading Marsyal's novel.
"Prince. Go sleep. It's too late for you to sleep" Tsuha looked at the wall clock at 03.20.
"It's time for my waking hours. So, let me read my book Tsuha" Arthur said with a laugh.
Actually, Arthur was afraid to sleep. He met the same person he dreamed of. Not the Ruri I meant. This was another figure that had threatened Arthur in his subconscious.
......●DREAM TIME ARTHUR HAYE●......
The sky surrounded by clouds stretched wide in front of Arthur who sat on a swing under a tree with a large trunk and patterned in the form of twists.
He swung the swing slowly while looking at the knee-high green grass of an adult swept away by the wind.
The seedlings of the dameelion flowers flew into the air.
Arthur enjoyed the view.
Seen from a distance, something sparkling made Arthur's eyes interested in the object in the middle of the expanse of grass.
Arthur's coming.
In the middle of the expanse of grass, there was a puddle of water surrounding a blue-colored sword that was stuck to the ground.
Looking at a pattern similar to the roots and lotus flower, it was a Hinoken.
"Hinokens? Why is it here?"
Arthur looked around to confirm the whereabouts of others.
He started touching Hinoken to hide it and he returned it to Aosora. However, Arthur's hand touched something delicate.
The little haired child who was paler than the color of the daytime sky sat down while bowing his head there.
The water is gone.
"Ah, sorry. Anu, are you okay?" Arthur began to notice the strange.
The little boy stood up and hugged Arthur.
Arthur was confused.
"Ah, are you all right"
"Are you happy?" The little boy spoke.
Arthur immediately widened his eyes and looked at the little boy. Arthur's eyes and the boy's eyes were in contact.
"Are you happy?" The boy, let go of his embrace.
The boy's eyes, dark blue. Arthur looks like he's seen a picture of his own childhood alive.
"Yes, I'm happy. How's yours?" Arthur closed his eyes and grimaced.
"Are you really happy?" The voice of the little boy, instantly turned into the voice of an adult man.
Arthur was surprised. He opened his eyes immediately.
The man who was about 180s tall with two elf ears, one horn that was coiled from behind his right ear to his left ear, lentic eyelashes, and the other, his eyes were the same as those of the little boy, and wearing a red robe on his knees was looking at Arthur while slightly tilting his head to the right.
"CRUMBLE!"
Arthur was surprised. He fell down immediately when he lifted his head.
"YOU! Why are you imitating me!!?" Arthur retreated by using his butt and using his legs as a booster.
The man stomped on Arthur's chest and bent his body until his face was close to Arthur's.
"Who's the copycat?" Ask the man.
"You!" Arthur tried to lift the man's leg. However, Arthur was not powerful.
"I? You're accusing me of being your impersonator? Then, what about you getting into my subconscious without my permission?"
DEGH!
Arthur doesn't understand what that means. He pushed the man's leg.
"Are you trying to control this body? Is living 17 years for you not enough? Are you unhappy with your life? Do you want to ask me for help again? What do you want to ask of me?" The man intimidated Arthur by throwing questions simultaneously.
"Damn it! I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN! GREPS! Whoa!!!"
Arthur immediately wrapped his legs on one of the man's legs which stood upright then made the man's legs fold backward until Arthur managed to make the man almost fall and teleport next to him.
"Eh? DAGHS! !!!!" Arthur glanced at the man next to him and the man immediately threw a kick of his right foot on the side of Arthur's left side until Arthur was thrown right.
Arthur's body hit something hard.
PRACKKK
Arthur stood up while holding his sore left rib. "It's impossible that this is a dream". Arthur looked behind him with a large tube with a series of numbers 2-27 from the glass that began to crack. The water from the tube seeped into Arthur's feet.
The place Arthur was standing right now, was in a half-destroyed building.
A BRUAKKKK!!!
The man hit the cracked wall of the building with his left hand until it was crushed.
The form of the man, turned into a form of a teenager with shabby clothes and horns that cross over his left eyebrow.
He looks like Arthur 100%
A long sigh rang out in Arthur's ear from the man who had turned into a teenager.
"Who is this?" Arthur's inner being can't pull out a sword that belongs to him.
"KHIKHIKKHIK, ARE YOU TESTING MY PATIENCE AOSORA!? WOSH! SHOUT!!! PRAKKKK!!!!!"
The teenager chuckled crisply. He was like a crazy person and immediately teleported towards Arthur then he released his hand punch. Arthur used the old way. He immediately crouched and rolled. Then the teenager's hand hit the fluid-filled canister behind Arthur until it broke and the water hit the teenager.
Arthur decided to run away and hide.
Arthur's heart was racing. He started sweating cold.
HHHHH......
Arthur's hiding place changed.
Arthur felt the cold around him. He saw the ground that he was bending turned into ice.
"Damn it! Am I exposed to genjutsu just like in the comics I read!? Should I tell Kai or hurt myself to wake up?!"
Arthur tried to injure himself with a chunk of ice next to him. Arthur's hand was hurt. He felt pain. However, his hands did not bleed.
Taps! Taps! Taps!
The sound of footsteps rang out in Arthur's ears.
KRAKKKK!!!
The ice-covered floor began to crack under Arthur's feet. The teenager, back in his adult form. He extended his hand to Arthur.
!!!!
Arthur suddenly shot towards the man and he suffocated.
"So, who's the copycat here?" Arthur saw his shadow on the ice behind the man.
Arthur sees a dark blue-haired teenager suffocating.
"Look, when you fall asleep. I'm gonna make you feel hard to wake up and I'm gonna show you how to copy the right one"
