I'll kill you after I finish this game!

This thought arises in both of their minds: they feel familiar with each other, yet they truly do not recognize one another.

Countless viewers, seeing the three people staring at each other in disbelief, felt a sense of destiny meeting.

Yes, it was indeed their first time meeting, but the causal connection between them was very profound.

"...Hey~ Lieutenant, I'm feeling that way again now."

"This face...it feels like I've seen it somewhere before..."

Beatrice scratched the back of her head, smiled at Rhodes with a friendly smile, and then whispered to Eluneore.

Elunere frowned as she looked at the handsome man in front of her, who seemed a little embarrassed, and stared at his face carefully without any attempt to hide her feelings.

At the same time, he was thinking, searching his memory, wondering if he had really seen this person somewhere before.

After all, that feeling of familiarity was just too strong.

"Nice to meet you...?"

Rhodes was also seeing these two women for the first time. Although they were colleagues, they were indeed strangers.

But... what's with this inexplicable sense of familiarity I feel?

"I am Elunere von Wittenberg, Lieutenant of the Guard, Soldier. What is your name?"

Feeling an overwhelming sense of familiarity, Elunere directly asked the man in front of her his name.

“Rhodes Reichhardt, an employee of the Heritage Administration.”

Rhodes didn't hide anything and directly revealed his name and where he worked.

The Heritage Administration, perhaps...?

Both Beatrice and Elunere were slightly surprised, not expecting that the man in front of them was from the most mysterious heritage administration in Germany.

"I never expected it to be such a place, but... Reishhart, what a nice name."

"Hey, you were stunned when you saw us too, weren't you? We both had a feeling of déjà vu when we saw you. Did you feel the same way about us?"

Elunere complimented the man's name, while Beatrice, with a smile on her face, teased Rhodes in a very familiar tone.

"Indeed, I feel like I've seen you two somewhere before, even though it's our first time meeting."

Rhodes was slightly surprised that Beatrice didn't hide her feelings for him at all, but when he heard her question, he scratched the back of his head in confusion.

Because he felt the same way as the two women in front of him, as if they had met before, and he didn't expect that the two women in front of him felt the same way about him.

Could this be called fate?

Chapter Seventy-Four: The Birth of the Golden Beast, the Prelude to a Horror Drama

Humans cannot define themselves solely by their own actions; everyone encounters a wide variety of different people throughout their lives.

First, you meet your parents at birth, and then you meet many more people.

In this process, one determines one's desires and one's own shape by interacting with others.

I think, therefore I am; I am this way, I am that way, I must be this way. Everyone living in this world has their own way of living.

Some people never find it, but they will not give up searching. If they find it and are certain of it, they will risk their lives to carry it out.

Elunere met Beatrice, Wilhelm met Schreiber, Rhodes met Michel... Their encounters shaped each other, and many more encounters will follow.

Now that Rhodes, Eluneore, and Beatrice have met, the familiar feeling they feel makes them subconsciously understand something.

You and the other person are entangled by cause and effect, and even if you are separated, you will meet again.

Human beings have history and drama; everyone is the protagonist in their own life story.

In their own lives, the protagonists naturally include other people, so the three protagonists were certain that each of them had a place in their lives.

Even after Rhodes parted ways with the two women, he kept thinking about them.

The overwhelming sense of familiarity compelled him to try and sort through his memories, attempting to find out if he had ever met the other person before.

"I have a feeling...we'll meet again someday..."

Having confirmed that he had never seen those two people before, and that this was the first time he had met them, Rhodes recalled the strange feeling he had experienced earlier and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"Who will I meet again?"

"It's...Anna!?"

Rhodes, who was muttering to himself, suddenly heard a laughing voice behind him. He responded instinctively and turned around to see a familiar face.

The other person was wearing a scarlet evening dress that was completely out of place with the environment, and was also carrying a parasol. Moreover, the other person's attire was extremely flamboyant.

The evening gown she wore was simply two pieces of fabric sewn together with ropes to her curvaceous and sexy body, exposing large areas of fair skin on both sides of her body.

Most people would feel their mouths go dry or their faces flush when they see a woman dressed like this.

Aside from his initial surprise at seeing an acquaintance, Rhodes' expression was one of complete indifference.

"I was so distracted while walking that we met... Did I have a romantic encounter along the way, Rhodes?"

Rusalka Schweiglin—no, now Anna Schweiglin, the alluring older woman—smiled and playfully poked the man's leg with her parasol, teasing him in a seductive tone.

Many viewers were stunned when they saw the woman, but upon hearing the familiar voice, they recognized her in surprise.

I never expected it to be that witch.

This glamorous older sister look was something the audience was seeing for the first time, so they didn't recognize her immediately.

However, her appearance and demeanor make her far more likely to be called a witch than Rusalka was when she was a young girl.

Her long, wine-red hair almost touched the ground, her slender, fair hands were covered with long gloves that resembled sleeves, and she wore a monocle.

While speaking to Rhodes, she gracefully twirled a stray strand of hair behind her ear with her other hand, her blue-green eyes looking at him with a smile.

"Please don't tease me. Women who know my family background are too busy avoiding me to have any romantic encounters."

Rhodes wore a wry smile and took a slight step back to avoid the teasing of his superior from the Ancient Heritage Bureau.

The Office for the Preservation of the Ancient German Heritage was originally a private research institution founded by Himmler in 1935, but was later absorbed by the SS and formally became a military-affiliated research institution.

The alluring woman before them was a confidante of the Director of the Ancient Heritage Bureau, who had been specially invited to serve as an advisor in this department.

Although his position wasn't high, he was second only to the bureau chief within the bureau.

"Sigh! Big sister, am I not your romantic encounter? So what if I have executioner blood? And I'm a demon... cough cough, anyway, you've already run away from home, don't worry about those things."

Rusalka was quite displeased with Rhodes' self-deprecating remarks about his bloodline, but he stopped himself from saying anything he shouldn't have.

The man in front of me wasn't a bad person, but just an ordinary person without any outstanding abilities.

However, Rusalka herself quite liked and admired this man, and in some ways he suited her tastes.

Rhodes just stated that women who know about their family generally don't want to get close to them, and that's actually true.

After all, this is a family that has continued to this day, and most women would not really like such a background.

But Rusalka wouldn't mind at all. So what if she had executioner blood? She still had genuine witch blood.

Rhodes himself didn't particularly like what his family had inherited, so he ran away from home.

Currently, he works at the Berlin Heritage Office and met Rusalka as a colleague. They have a very close relationship and can be described as good friends.

“I didn’t really care to begin with, and if the war gets really intense, I plan to go to the front lines with Michelle. As a soldier who considers dying in battle my destiny, I don’t really care about romance.”

Rhodes smiled and waved his hand at his friend's words of comfort, indicating that he didn't care at all, and then casually mentioned his future plans.

Rhodes quite likes his current job, and he defines the legacies, or relics, that he encounters during his work as something that has been permanently stopped in his daily life.

Rhodes, who longed for and yearned for the fleeting moments of eternity, naturally loved these relics very much.

But despite his passion, Rhodes had long planned to go to the front lines with Michelle when the country needed him.

"...Is that so? You went to the battlefield willingly, even though you clearly enjoyed staying at the Bureau of Ancient Heritage..."

“I don’t want to be looked down upon by Michelle. Although I enjoy my time at the heritage office, I don’t want to be seen as a coward hiding in the back.”

Rhodes didn't understand why the woman in front of him was hesitating, so he directly stated his thoughts.

Although he disliked war, he was not afraid of it.

He didn't want to stay in the rear. If he were to hear the news of his friend Michel's death and be saddened, he would rather die with his comrades.

In summary... he hates it when the people he cares about 'walk' ahead of him.

I cherish every moment I love, and in that moment there are people I care about. In order to pursue the moment I love, I can't let it slip away.

The video then shifts to the other side, showing a man in military uniform walking along a dark road leading to the prison.

A few days ago, the German leader was assassinated by an unexplained bomb, and two people present at the scene predicted the event before the explosion.

Karl Craft, Gray Nclough, a combination of magician and sorcerer is both strange and wonderful.

But these two people predicted everything in advance. Based on previous information, it can be inferred that these two people do indeed possess extraordinary skills unknown to ordinary people.

Reinhardt was ordered to interrogate them, or perhaps to recruit those two talents.

Reinhardt, who had been expressionless, initially thought the two men were con artists, but the moment he saw them through the cell, he involuntarily discarded his contemptuous thoughts.

In a single instant, in that one fleeting moment, Reinhardt, suppressing the desires in his heart, once again connected with the boundary line of the unreal world through cause and effect.

Reinhardt at this time was also very rare, completely lacking the majestic aura he once possessed when he reigned supreme.

Instead, he seemed like a talented person filled with a misanthropic attitude, because in Reinhardt's eyes today, the world looked so bleak and boring that he was never enthusiastic about anything.

It is precisely because of this spirit and attitude that he is the most suitable candidate to be the Gestapo commander to carry out sanctions, since the other party can make a judgment equally and without any personal feelings.

Reinhardt's current identity is lieutenant general, head of the state secret police and the Gestapo, a famous nobleman of the German Empire, known as the Black Prince, the executioner.

Speaking to Carl and Gray from this perspective, countless viewers realized that this man had not yet become the "Beast."

Reinhardt first spoke with the two men imprisoned in the cell, intending to interrogate them, but the two men took over the lead and control of the conversation.

Originally, I wanted to ask about the two of them, but I ended up bringing up Reinhardt himself.

And it was because of this that Reinhardt was gradually guided by these two people, and his life trajectory began to veer towards the unrealistic path of magic.

As Karl and Gray displayed their extraordinary abilities, countless viewers witnessed a divine gold appear in Reinhardt's calm blue eyes.

【Pink Fairy】: At this time, Reinhardt seemed quite normal in other aspects, except for being world-weary and bored.
