The dark-haired boy whispered.

"But, my biological father was Sparta.

"My venerable father is Leonidas.

"Sparta is the land where I was born and raised.

"Leonidas, the elder who taught me and gave me fatherly warmth and love.

"In my heart, there is no father's place, which can be left to others.

"No matter how powerful, noble, or revered the possible biological father is.

"Neither will I admit that he deserves to be my father."

silence.

Under the stagnant night, everything is silent.

Only the gray-haired old man, with his drowsy and muddy eyes lowered, shoveled and shoveled the ground, piling up graves for the graves of the dead.

"Thank you for coming and building a resting place for everyone."

with my brother.

Su Shu bowed deeply to the old man.

In front of the tombstone in the mausoleum.

He gently put down the ranunculus flower in his hand and turned around.

"People in this city-state should prefer olive branches, Your Highness."

Under the lonely night.

The old man's tired voice came faintly from behind him.

"How about I send you a bunch of olives?"

"Everyone"

Su Shu stopped in his tracks, but didn't look back.

"—do you all like olives?"

"Yes, because of the olive branch, which symbolizes peace."

The old man sighed with vicissitudes of life,

"People are looking forward to peace."

"That's it"

Su Shu muttered softly.

"Sorry but I personally don't like it much."

In the old man's cloudy pupils.

The back of the black-haired boy gradually disappeared into a dot under the night, and finally disappeared.

"The new palace was quickly built on the original ruins."

"In name, although you are only the regent, everyone knows that you are the uncrowned king of Sparta."

"You efficiently handled various affairs in the city-state of Sparta. Soon, half a year passed. The entire city-state was governed by you in an orderly manner, and quickly recovered its vitality before the war."

"In order to prevent the tragedy of half a year ago from happening again, you began to gather the priests to discuss the matter of building a repelling circle."

"You hope that through the influence of magic, the rifts of hell will no longer open inside the city-state. At least in this way, you can leave a wide battlefield to fight against demons, so as to avoid the casualties of innocent residents."

"However, for such a conception, you get disappointing answers."

"The more people there are, the more densely they gather, the more likely demons will appear. This has been an unchanging truth for more than 100 years."

"However, in those sparsely populated fields, apart from the strong fighters themselves, civilians are also vulnerable to attacks by monsters."

"Both harm each other, whichever is lesser."

"That's why the settlement structure in the form of a city-state with wide streets has been widely adopted in this piece of Greek land."

"You discussed with the Aatrox in your heart, and you didn't give up the idea of ​​expelling the demon."

"Only these days."

"The nightmare that came from the turmoil made you feel more and more uncomfortable."

In the confusion of thoughts.

There seemed to be cheers from the crowd.

Su Shu lowered his gaze in a daze, then slowly opened his eyes.

Sunlight, bright and clear.

Everything is so serene and peaceful.

On the Sparta Square where the petals are flying and the lights are festooned.

He was holding the hand of the red-haired girl, and in the smile of Leonidas, they were making conjugal salutes to each other.

The girl was wearing a red tulle, with a blushing soft face, shy but shy.

The eyes that stared at this side all the time seemed fiery and bold.

"Myrrine?"

Su Shu called out her name in a daze.

He looks away.

Leonidas, smiling and nodding at himself.

"Today is your coming of age ceremony, Kratos."

Just like in memory.

The red-haired man sighed with emotion while smiling.

"For my father, officiate the wedding for you"

Among the colorful and dazzling flower petals flying all over the sky.

Su Shu stared blankly at the red-haired girl's hand gently caressing his face.

The fingertips of childhood sweethearts.

With a soft, reassuring temperature.

She reached out her hand and gave it a gentle push.

In a trance spinning around.

The back of Su Shu's head touched the soft pillow cover filled with light feathers.

In the bedroom of the royal palace with candlelight floating.

Su Shu watched the red-haired girl with a blushing face riding on him.

In those amber eyes, a trance-like light poured out.

"Kratos"

Calling her husband's name so intimately.

Her soft and red lips slowly bent down, as if she wanted to kiss herself.

"Myrrine."

With a somewhat dazed expression.

Su Shu raised his hand and gently touched her lips.

"What's wrong Kratos."

"Did we have a wedding?"

"Yes."

The red-haired girl smiled like a flower.

As in the past years, her smile is shining brightly among the flowers.

"Are you too tired, Kratos? It's been a day since the wedding, you"

"I'm dreaming."

Su Shu said softly.

"You are already dead."

Her smile froze on her face.

The touch of the girl's body suddenly became cold and dead.

Red-haired childhood sweetheart.

Thick blood slowly oozes from the delicate facial features.

"Because you didn't save me, Kratos."

"sorry."

Her figure seemed to be destroyed.

The intoxicating beauty dissipated and turned into dead bones.

He held his forehead.

In the dark bedroom of the royal palace, Su Shu slowly sat up.

The moonlight pouring in from the window is quiet and bright.

He rubbed his forehead wearily.

"This Dream Again"

Leonidas, Myrrine, none of them died.

In Su Shu's dream every night.

Everything passed smoothly and peacefully.

The timeline becomes longer and longer and more real.

At first, when Kratos was only 13 years old, the dream came to an abrupt end.

However, half a year has passed.

In today's dream, Kratos has grown to 15 years old and married Myrrine.

It can't go on like this.

Yes, this constant nightmare

"—someone is up to something, Aatrox."

In my heart, I asked silently.

However, Aatrox did not get an answer.

Ok?

As if aware of something.

Su Shu looked away in a daze.

Breathing stopped suddenly.

A heart that missed a beat.

The moment he realized something was wrong, it was like being hit by a heavy hammer on a string that was tense in his mind.
