Linda's actions became worse when she was about to reach for the mask that covered Adam's face.
As a reflex, Adam instantly caught Linda's wrist before he finally lightly tapped the back of the woman's neck. He looked straight at Thomas.
“What do you see, Mr Thomas? Can't you take your wife back to her room? There's no way I did it, right?”
Hearing Adam's words, Thomas awakens from his daydream.
“M-Sorry has made you a hassle. Mr. Owl.”
“Same is not a problem.”
After Adam saw Thomas taking his wife away, the young man finally heaved a sigh of relief. He did not expect that his brain could think of such a bad thing.
“Are you okay, Uncle Owl?”
The boy's voice resuscitated Adam. The young man then stroked his head and ruffled Kevin's hair.
“I'm fine.”
“Is Mom okay too, Uncle Owl?”
“Yes. He just fainted. It's better that way because your mom's sleep deprived. He needs time to rest.”
“Good then!” kevin exclaimed with a plain smile on his face.
Seeing the world in such a simple way, I sometimes envy the innocence of children.
Adam thought with a gentle smile behind his mask.
Children will be angry if they do not like and laugh if they like. They do it according to how they feel. There is not much deceit, there is not much cunning, there is not much desire hidden behind a smile.
“Did something change, or maybe something strange happen when I left, Kevin?”
Hearing Adam's question, Kevin tilted his head with disheveled hair. His somewhat confused appearance seemed somewhat comical, making Adam want to laugh.
“Agot much?” kevin said confusedly.
“Really?” Adam was a little surprised.
“Really, Uncle! I'm not lying at all! Everyone in the house seemed to be frightened and depressed. Especially mom ... somehow she is often restless.”
“...”
Hearing that, Adam nodded.
“It looks like ‘Dia’ really scares people.”
“En.” Kevin nodded innocently.
“By the way ... why aren't you scared when talking about ‘Dia’ with me, Kevin?”
“Why should I be afraid, Uncle?” ask Kevin.
“Isn't ‘Dia’ scary? By the way ... can you tell me? I'm very curious.”
“You're funny, Uncle!” Kevin laughs. “Of course ‘Dia’ is not at all scary. After all, ‘Dia’ has the appearance-”
Before he finished saying everything, Kevin's little figure suddenly collapsed. Adam who caught him looked surprised by the sudden incident. Looking at Kevin's nosebleed and the pale expression on the boy's face, he cursed inwardly.
How could I forget it! The creature was too cunning, impossible to leave a gap like allowing children to describe its appearance.
Adam gritted his teeth. Despite not knowing the full form of the creature, which the young man believed in .. ‘Dia’ does not seem scary. Can't even scare the kids.
Could ‘Dia’ be a gray bunny?
Adam immediately moved Kevin to the sofa. He then took out a P3K box that happened to be seen there. He cleared the rest of the blood in Kevin's nose.
“Are you okay, Kevin?” ask Adam softly.
“I'm fine, Uncle Owl. Sorry Uncle, I forgot that I shouldn't talk about his appearance.”
“Samely no problem.”
Adam said in a very relaxed tone. He didn't think it was all a problem. The young man had similarly already heard some clues. He had also guessed some parts of the puzzle. The rest ... wait for the game to start.

Her night.
Opening her eyes, Linda looked at the ceiling of her room.
“You're finally sober, Linda. You should know what mistakes you have made.”
Hearing Thomas's words, the somewhat absentminded Linda suddenly recalled what she had done earlier.
Recalling how he attacked Owl's figure without the slightest guilt, he turned pale. In the depths of the woman's heart, she actually knew that only the figure of Owl could now rely on.
By the time Thomas goes to the Department of Mysteries, Linda finds out that her husband is bringing bad news. According to what the man said, the other members of the Mystery Department could not deal with the problems related to evil spirits or such creatures at all.
The other members of the Mystery Department said that they were only a few people with special abilities. Their job is actually to take care of the evil deeds done by people who have other special abilities.
If that was said before, Linda would not believe such a thing. But after experiencing such a strange thing, he inevitably ended up believing the news.
Linda and her husband felt depressed because the only person they could rely on suddenly disappeared. Thomas himself had also contacted some business acquaintances and tried to hire people claiming to be taoist or exorcist priests, but they were nothing but con artists.
On the first day Owl disappeared, they became more and more panicked. Not to mention on the second and third day .. heavy pressure makes Linda more and more unwary. Not only that pressure, he also felt depressed because he wanted to vent himself but could not.
For two years he has satisfied himself. She does not want to betray a husband who has loved her and their son, Kevin.
Linda herself hopes that Thomas can be healed and start a harmonious relationship as ever. Although fully endowed materially, women still want to be nourished inwardly.
At that moment, Linda who was sitting on her bed lowered her head while looking at her two hands. The woman suddenly recalled hitting and touching Adam.
Such a well-trained body .. a scent reminiscent of that soothing forest …
Recalling that sensation, Linda unconsciously swallowed the saliva. His view became a bit blurry.

Meanwhile, Adam was accompanying Kevin in his repaired room.
The young man suddenly shivered. He then turned his head left and right with a suspicious expression.
“What feeling is this? Is ‘Dia’ finally coming?” murmured Adam.
The young man looked at Kevin who had fallen asleep then at the wall clock which indicated 23:56. It should not have been the time, but strangely enough, he suddenly goosebumps just like that.
After waiting for some time but no change at all, the young man let out a long sigh. He looked somewhat confused, but also relieved.
Staring at the clock on the wall that shows at 00:00 makes Adam a little nervous. At the time of the needle indicating the minute moved, at 00.01 .. The electricity suddenly went out.
At that very instant, Adam instantly looked very serious. With cold eyes observing the darkness that enveloped him, he whispered softly.
“Then ... we start the game.”
