Armand jolts up from his dream. He sits on his bedside soaking in sweat, panting with his head lowered to finally pull himself out of that nightmare.

Or in other words, pull himself out of that nightmarish reality.

Armand grabs his hand drenched with cold sweat, the last scene he sees is himself bleeding out on the ground, and Mu Sicheng with dilated pupils.

His blood spread across the floor, mixing with his own blood that was under him.

Armand sits on the edge of his bed dumbfoundedly to recall his dream, or should he say his last life.

His brother Georgia is the captain of Area 3 of the Anomaly Authorities. As far as Arman could remember, Georgia has always been busy since his job was extremely dangerous, which is what made him very protective of Arman--Georgia has Armand's every action strictly monitored.

Such as Georgia not permitting Armand from entering the Anomaly Authorities or doing anything related to the anomalies.

Though Armand was unwilling to submit, the more that Georgia didn't let him, the more he wanted to work at the Anomaly Authorities that greatly interested him--this is his dream job where he could save the world!

This caused Armand and Georgia to have their first argument. Armand. Armand refused to back down, but he didn't have a choice but to do as Georgia wished at last.

Georgia told him coldly, Armand, you are too emotional and weak, you won't be able to face the cruelty of your enemies, and you will be punished by fate if you stay this way.

Now that he think about it, Georgia was right. Georgia is always right.

Armand hadn't been punished by fate before, he would hold childish fantasies about being in fate's mercy.

Armand took his nativity which was like a ticking bomb with him to the Anomaly Authorities, then he was placed under the safest anomaly regulatory authorities, which is doing paperwork.

Being bored out of his mind for constantly calculating all kinds of different anomalies, Armand took every chance to run toward the frontline. Though he would be caught by Georgia immediately, he would be under stricter control in Area Three.

Armand couldn't help but feel a dreadful sense of loneliness.

From the moment Armand started growing up, he was surrounded by a wall built by Georgia in order to protect him. There was nothing within the walls, only himself. Even Georgia has to stay outside the walls, eating meals with a plastic barrier in order to not corrupt him.

And when Armand was already all grown up, he still had to stay inside the walls, there wasn't even anyone to talk to.

And this person appeared not long after.

The area that Georgia supervises is an extremely dangerous storage area, the anomaly that was kept there are the most dangerous and the most valuable anomalies. Area Three's location is usually in the most secretive spot, very few people are able to find it. Though this to Area Three's archenemy--Mu Sicheng, was an exclusion.

Mu Sicheng was Area Three's biggest enemy. This cocky thief would always make a mess whenever he comes to Area Three, the members of Area Three almost sacrificed the entirety of their brains to figure out the weaknesses of this cunning thief.

As they investigated, they found something useful.

As Armand shoved bread into his mouth, he heard his teammates bring up Mu Sicheng's background for the thousandth time, and he couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Mu Sicheng...His best friend died...He can't work with anyone, always lonely, working on his own..."

"He seems to mind that a lot, losing his cool whenever he heard that...we could use that..."

With pieces of bread in his mouth, Armand interrupted with his muffled voice, "How's a dead friend a weakness?"

He patted his cheat cheekily and suggested, "Unless you make him a friend that's alive, that can truly be called a weakness. I think I'd be a great option, I can help you spy on this thief by being his friend." ℟Å𐌽ȫᛒƐš

Knowing that Armand is their captain's little brother, he smiled as he entertained him, "Do you know how this thief's friend died?"

Armand shook his head truthfully.

His teammate frightened him, "He's killed by Mu Sicheng himself! If you became his friend, you might be killed by him!"

Armand paused, choking on the bread he was about to swallow.

That night, the alarms in Area Three rang.

Armand awoke from his dreams groggily, immediately hearing Georgia's stern voice ringing from the alarms, "Everyone stay on guard! Mu Sicheng stole three grade two class red anomalies and got shot by me in the waist! He is slowly losing his movement speed as he's running through the administration! Everyone member is required to do a blanket search right now!"

"--If necessary, shoot him dead on the spot!"

The members searched for the thief room by room, each of them had joy on their faces that they couldn't hide. The joy from the auspicious feeling caused them to not bat an eye at Armand who sneakily joined their hunt.

Armand searched with them with excitement. Not too long after he was caught by Georgia, he listened to Georgia's scolds bitterly before heading back to his room in defeat.

However, the moment that he returned to his room, he noticed that someone was off. Something went into his room.

Armand didn't shut his door when he left his room. Even though the person who broke in was cautious, and it looked like nothing had been touched, they couldn't hide their scent--the smell of blood.

His heart started pounding.

Armand knew that he had no way that he could overpower that person, so he acted like he didn't notice anything, turning back in hopes of notifying the others.

Though the moment he turned his head, sharp claws were placed against his throat. A tall person panted as he pinned him down, grinning mischievously, "You're pretty sharp. Your nose is as sensitive as mine, you smelled the scent of blood on me didn't you?"

Armand's heart was about to jump out of his throat. He raised his hand to show that he admitted defeat, but before he could say anything, the person pinning him down slowly slid off of him.

Armand turned around dumbfoundedly.

He saw a young man that was around his age lying in his own blood limply, he even had a pair of monkey-shaped headphones on, heaving rapidly on the floor.

Armand immediately came to a realisation that he was about to go into shock from his blood loss. He stared at Mu Sicheng who fainted hazily, his brain started recalling all the information he had heard about this cruel thief's background.

【...No friends...always by himself...it seemed lonely...he could only talk to the person controlling him...】

【Every time he steals things, everything he does is to please the person controlling him, to win his acceptance...】

【I think this person behind him is going to expand his route for his black market, that's why Mu Sicheng visits Area Three so often...】

Armand thought he would be an old man that is around forty or fifty years old, he never thought that...he would be this young.

The blood that was leaking out of him made a puddle of blood, he looked like he was in a daze as he curled up. He didn't try to stop the blood, instead, he used his injured abdomen to protect the three boxes of anomalies that he stole.

Armand's lips pressed into a flat line. He gripped the handgun he had on him, gritting his teeth as he aimed at Mu Sicheng's head.

However, no matter how hard he tried to force himself, he couldn't bring himself to kill him--his brother was right.

There was no way that he could shoot a living person. Despite knowing that this person is an unforgivable bastard, he could see the same desire that he had in Mu Sicheng's eyes--the same tiny desire and wish to be understood, and be accepted.

At that moment, someone knocked on Armand's door.

Armand jolted up, his body moved on its own to lift Mu Sicheng up and hid him under his bed. Then he quickly got changed, spraying a huge amount of air freshener then lying on his bed to pretend that he was asleep.

The person that came was just a regular teammate. He asked Armand, "Have you seen anyone suspicious?"

Armand who was on the bed anxiously replied quickly, "No! The air freshener is because I took a massive stinky crap!"

The person, "...You didn't have to tell me that."

Fortunately for him, no one suspected the little brother of Georgia, so he quickly left the room filled with the scent of air freshener as he pinched his nose.

Armand lay on the bed limply. After hesitating for a long time, he placed some medicine and a roll of bandages under his bed.

Perhaps a long time passed, a pair of money claws snatched the items with a woosh.

Armand hugged his knees as he sat on his bed in a daze as he tried to make sense of why he just did that.

Before he could come up with an answer, a fully energized voice rang from under his bed, a voice that was a little hoarse, "Hey, what's your name?"

Armand responded with honesty, "Armand."

A scoff came from under his bed, "Sounds awful. You look like the guy that shot me, who are you to him?"

"...His little brother." Armand grew more depressed after hearing that.

Why would he save the enemy that his brother just shot?

After a long pause from under his bed, he finally asked the same question that Armand was thinking inside his head, "You...why did you save me?"

Armand let out a melancholic sigh, "I don't know, I just can't help myself."

A string of mocking laughter and choking noises rang from under his bed, then he snickered and insulted, "Dumbass."

Armand, "..."

Even though I know I'm pretty much a dumbass, but shouldn't you not be saying that?

When Armand woke up the next day, Mu Sicheng was already gone. While Armand felt relieved by it, he also thought that maybe he went crazy for trying to do something useful, which is why he dreamt of capturing Mu Sicheng?

But why did he save him and let him go in the dream?

Armand couldn't figure that out, so he just let it be.

But not long after, this infamous thief visited the Anomaly Authorities again. This time Mu Sicheng didn't take anything away, only leaving a calling card behind.

【--Coming to steal stuff on Wednesday! Dunno what to steal yet, I'll see what's there to steal. Make your captain's little brother, the one that has a really awful name, wait for me at the gate!】

Georgia lifted his eyes, flinging the calling card toward Armand who was still dumbfounded, "Explain, why is Mu Sicheng targeting you?"

"...I don't know either..." Armand wanted to cry, he really regretted everything.

Georgia took a deep breath, staring at Armand for a long time before making his final judgement, "Whatever happened between you and Mu Sicheng, Armand, you must remember that this man is a demon, you will be hurt by him."

"But if you really need a chance to snap back into reality, I'll give you that chance."

Georgia continued to stare at the guilty Armand, "Take your gun and come with us on the front line on Wednesday."

On Wednesday, Armand took his gun and shakily stood at the very front. Promptly, the third arrived.

This is the first time Armand saw Mu Sicheng sprinting as a third.

Mu Sicheng was as fast as the wind, and as free as the breeze. He rushed toward Armand with a speed that couldn't be caught with the naked eye with a smile, grabbing Armand who was still spacing out by the wrist and dragged him along.

Within gunfire and gunshots, and all the screaming of the members of the Anomaly Authorities, the thief Mu Sicheng and Armand were as if children that are caught pulling pranks, they sprinted off swiftly.

Armand was dumbfounded, he wanted to retract his hand, but Mu Sicheng shot him a sly grin as he turned around to face him in the wind, "Look at how they can't catch us, it's fun right?"

Armand paused, and then he turned around. Behind him were his teammates running after them desperately. With Mu Sicheng's speed, the ferocious expressions on their faces looked kind of silly--it is pretty fun. Armand couldn't help but giggle.

Mu Sicheng was really fast, and Armand who was holding hands with him was also running speedily.

The dangerous anomalies are all stored and fixed and were toyed with casually in Mu Sicheng's hands. It was as if they weren't any anomalies and just Mu Sicheng's toys, and he wasn't stealing or doing crimes to harm anyone, this was just a game that the thief suddenly thought of.

Mu Sicheng threw a random anomaly at Armand and smirked, "Do you know what this is for?"

"Number 8035..." Armand tried his best to recall the statistics he worked on, "This looked like...wind..." ...butterfly.

He remembered that it could create a hurricane.

Mu Sicheng cut him off impatiently, reaching his hand out to open it directly, "Wouldn't opening it be easier?"

An iridescent, strange butterfly flew out from the box, wind was generated from their colourful wings. The strong wind spun within the closed space, it was so strong that it could move a person's hairline backwards by a centimetre.

Armand wasn't prepared for it, so he immediately got blown into the air.

Mu Sicheng grabbed Armand's ankle to prevent him from being carried away by the wind, he laughed loudly in a taunting way, "Have your brother never let you play with this even though you've been where for so long?"

"Is this for playing?!" Armand cried out frantically, "Stop it! This will cause severe climate change."

"Nope." Mu Sicheng stabled himself in the wind, floating right above Armand, After steadying Armand, he chuckled and explained, "You're really stupid, what did your brother even teach you? Look closely, every anomaly has its weakness--"

Mu Sicheng led Armand's fingers to grab the wing of the butterfly that was dancing in the wind, whispering next to Armand's ear, "--As long as you get a hold of its weakness, this anomaly is your toy."

Armand looked at the butterfly in disbelief as it stopped flapping its wings, stopping upon his fingers meekly.

Mu Sicheng let out a proud snort, "Yeah?"

But the next moment, Mu Sicheng let go of the butterfly and even flicked its wing, and the wind immediately rose again.

Mu Sicheng grabbed the collar of the petrified Armand, retreating rapidly within the hurricane that the butterfly created. He laughed boisterously at the members who were trying to catch up, making a salute gesture with two fingers,

"I'm stealing your captain's little bro to have some fun!"

They both disappeared within the hurricane, there wasn't even a trace of them left.

In reality, the wind didn't carry them for too long before Mu Sicheng decided to stop.

He picked up a call from an unknown person, the playful expression he had immediately calmed down, and his joking tone turned into a more stern voice, "...Understood, I'll bring back the things, it's safe here, no problem at all."

After he hung up, he turned around to look at Armand and instantly burst out in laughter.

Armand has a face that is ninety per cent similar to Georgia's features. At this moment, Armand who had never been through such a thrill had his brown hair been brown into a chicken next, a few strands of grass were mixed in it, and his expression was incredibly stupid and dumbfounded.

He was lying down with his four limbs spread out on the ground--It's not that he didn't want to stand up, it's just because he had never been on a transportation which was the hurricane. Armand had a bit of 'wind-sickness'.

Mu Sicheng bent down in front of Armand, a faint smile appearing on his face, "I thought that big boring guy's little brother would be a small boring guy, didn't expect him to be a dumbass."

Armand leered at Mu Sicheng, "Go on."

Mu Sicheng tried to not laugh, he shoved his hands into his pockets and threw a few anomaly boxes at Armand, "Alright, I've had my fun today. I'll come back for you again when I have the chance to, bye bye."

After that, he turned around and left.

Armand snapped from his daze. He looked at the boxes in front of him and suddenly paused--

--These boxes are not just the ones that Mu Sicheng stole, parts of them were the three boxes that he stole that day he saved Mu Sicheng.

"Mu Sicheng--" He thought for a moment, he couldn't help but call out for Mu Sicheng, "You returned the ones you stole last time."

Mu Sicheng turned his head and raised a brow, "What? You don't want it?"

Armand responded sincerely, "You're probably here to play today, the ones you took are all just grade-one class red anomalies. But these three are all grade-three class red, they are probably your target. It's good that you returned them to me, I'm just scared that you'll take them away again next time."

"They're my target yeah." The corner of Mu Sicheng's lips tugged up, "But you caught me last time, so I failed, this isn't mine to claim."

Mu Sicheng waved his hand, leaving without turning his head back again, a hint of a smile was in his voice, "I'll come back again for sure. If you don't want to lose anything again, try harder to catch me, Armand."

Armand fell silent for a long period of time as he stared at the three boxes.

Armand finally had the right to join the frontline after he successfully brought back the stolen boxes.

After that, Mu Sicheng would occasionally send a calling card to Armand. Armand seemed to have matured within one night, becoming more serious and trying his best to capture Mu Sicheng.

Whenever Mu Sicheng visited, Armand was always the one who ran the fastest, almost as fast as Mu Sicheng, yet he never fired at Mu Sicheng.

Gradually, Armand became the person who had the most success in taking back things that were stolen by Mu Sicheng.

Armand grew more mature in the process of chasing Mu Sicheng, he was more stern, and more responsible, and his abilities got more capable as well. He became Georgia's helper, also known as the vice-captain.

One day after Armand finished his dinner and recorded the data of an anomaly, he returned to his room and found a calling card next to his bed. It read--【Vice-captain, not playing tag, wanna drink?】

Armand's lips curved up. After making sure that his brother was not here cautiously, he sneaked out from the backdoor of the Anomaly Authorities.

Armand went to the spot where he was first taken away by Mu Sicheng's hurricane--they would often meet up here. Even though they had no idea why they did that even though they were enemies, it started as an unconscious thing, slowly it became a silent promise between the two.

The open field was empty, but a glistening starry sky could be seen above them. When Armand arrived, Mu Sicheng sat with his legs crossed on a small hill with his head raised to look at the starry sky.

"You're here." Mu Sicheng lazily greeted Armand, tossing a bottle of alcohol toward him.

Armand caught it like he usually does and looked at him, then he paused.

He realised that something was off about Mu Sicheng tonight, his emotions were not quite right.

"What is it?" Armand sat next to him and asked.

Mu Sicheng lifted his head up high to take a gulp, then he breathed out, "That guy gave me the full right to the smuggling route, I won't come here to steal anymore."

He fell silent for a moment, but he continued as if nothing happened, "The next time we see each other we'll be firing at each other, switch out the fake empty gun you have."

As Mu Sicheng finished his sentence, Armand fell silent as well.

--If it's just stealing, it could be considered a game. But when it's upgraded into smuggling that could put everyone in danger, it can't be called a game anymore.

It's about life or death.

Armand rarely drinks, but he took a huge gulp and wiped his mouth, "I will."

"I've played a lot of games before. There are cruel ones, scary ones, and one that's..." Mu Sicheng stared at the starry sky and mumbled, "--unforgettable."

"But during this time, I've had the most fun." Mu Sicheng lowered his head, he didn't look at Armand, but he reached out his hand toward him, "Thanks, whether it be you letting me go, or accompanying me."

Armand grabbed his hand, speaking back genuinely, "It's alright, we're friends."

Mu Sicheng paused, he quieted down for a short moment before letting out a sneer, "Do you know how my last friend died?"

"You killed him." Armand gripped Mu Sicheng's hand tighter, an unmovable determination sparkled in his brown eyes, "But I believe that you won't kill me, or in other words, I'll do my best to become stronger, so strong that I can't be killed by you or kill you!"

Armand gripped his hand into a fist, "I will be strong enough to stop what you have to do!"

Mu Sicheng retracted his hand, turning his head to a side with a huff, but he couldn't control the smile tugging up on his face, "...Stupid brat, don't get so smug about being able to catch me for a few times."

However, Armand and Mu Sicheng never thought that this would be the last time they greet each other with a smile.

Three months later, Bai Liù came to ship off a cargo of goods, Georgia spotted a few hints of it when he saw Mu Sicheng as he was patrolling.

After confirming that it was a batch of high-risk anomalies that they smuggled, and would cause irreversible damage to the market, he didn't hesitate to attack ferociously. Mu Sicheng was already having a hard time guarding the place, though Bai Liù who already left after sending off the batch suddenly turned back and returned to the docks.

With Bai Liù's help, Mu Sicheng captured the famous captain of Area Three.

When he saw Georgia being the person who came forward, Mu Sicheng's pupils contracted for a split second.

Bai Liù didn't miss the minuscule change of expression on his face as he was seated. Bai Liù turned to Georgia who kneeled down in front of him with a blank expression and raised his eyebrow.

"You know this captain?"

Mu Sicheng answered with difficulty, "I always steal things from the Area that he supervises..."

Bai Liù tilted his face to glance at Mu Sicheng plainly, "I don't like people lying to me, you know what I meant when I said that--do you have feelings for him?"

"No!" Mu Sicheng disagreed promptly.

Bai Liù looked back at Georgia thoughtfully, "But your reaction when seeing his face wasn't fake. If it's not him, it's probably someone that looks like him."

He leaned forward to lift up Georgia's face, inspecting his features with a lowered gaze, "It can't be a female since the body type is so drastically different, so this person is most likely a male, and someone that is close to his age, or you won't be unable to tell the different at first glance."

Mu Sicheng almost stopped breathing, his hands were gripped into a fist.

"--It's his little brother, isn't it?" Bai Liù calmly announced his answer, "He's around your age, perhaps has a similar past as yours, building a relationship when you're in this position--"

Bai Liù lifted his eyes to look at the silent Mu Sicheng, he folded his hands on his lap, "--is fun, right?"

Mu Sicheng's eyes were red. Letting out a deep breath, he didn't try to explain for himself, kneeling down with a lowered head.

"I'm begging you...let Georgia go." He said it word by word, "I was being too frisky, I'll behave myself next time. Killing him now will cause Area Three to have a new captain, changing the entire layout, it's inconvenient for us to investigate..."

Mu Sicheng tried to continue, but he seemed to grow helpless from trying to make this unreasonable request of letting Georgia go. After not receiving any answers from Bai Liù, Mu Sicheng quieted down, kneeling in front of Bai Liù without moving.

Bai Liù lowered his gaze, "To respect your serious attitude toward your job at this period of time, I can let him go."

Mu Sicheng's head snapped up in shock.

"This will not happen again." Bai Liù's gaze brushed over Georgia, "But before this, to prevent the captain of Area Three from remembering our smuggling route, I need to shop him something."

Mu Sicheng let out a breath of relief, "--Is it an item to erase his memories?"

"No." Bai Liù said softly, "I'm going to let him try to item that I just obtained, 【The Future】."

After Georgia looked at that item, he looked like his soul had been sucked away, just like a corpse. He was abandoned in an open field by Bai Liù--the secret spot where Mu Sicheng and Armand often drink together.

Mu Sicheng informed Armand in secret so he could take his brother back.

Armand Frantically carried his brother who had an empty look back.

--That marked the start of a nightmare.

After Georgia stopped talking for an entire month, and frequently tried to commit suicide and hurt himself, Armand's despair exploded, so he logged into the game.

After floundering to pass the games, Armand shakily saw the thief named Mu Sicheng's other face on the big screen.

This person laughed cruelly as he killed, a person's life was as valuable as a toy to him. He followed behind another person, turning from a thief to a razor-sharp weapon. There was blood whenever he made a move.

Armand stared blankly as Mu Sicheng crushed his opponent's throat, accompanied by the cheers of the audience. His head was lifted as he looked at the screen that showed the friend that he didn't recognise, nothing went through his head.

So this is what Mu Sicheng was talking about...when he talked about those games...

So this is what he talked about...

After winning another competition, Mu Sicheng wiped the sweat and blood on his chin casually with his shirt, waving impatiently toward the roaring crowd and was about to step away.

As if just for fun, Bai Liù turned around and asked him, "Comparing this game with the game you had between that friend that is vice-captain of Area Three, which one of more fun?"

With his sanity low, the desire to steal and kill made Mu Sicheng's pupils contract in excitement. A vicious smile curved up, and his fangs showed in the corner of his lips as if he was a demon that showed his true nature after bathing in blood, "What kind of question is that?"

"--It's the games here without a doubt."

Armand stood there like a wooden statue within the hyped-up crowd, the enormous screen emitting a bright white light from behind him. Bai Liu led his team to walk through the path that the cheering audience created, brushing past Armand,

The most valued player in this game, the one that killed the most, which was Mu Sicheng, strutted behind Bai Liu. He walked past Armand, his annoyed steps made him bump into Armand and caused him to fall over.

Mu Sicheng didn't pay any attention to the weak player that he just bumped into.

Being in some sort of emotions, Mu Sicheng only glanced at the person that he bumped into haughtily, only to see a player looking at him dumbfoundedly, and his face had dirt all over. He sneered 'dumbass', then he walked away without turning around again.

Armand finally lifted his head from his daze, then he met Bai Liù's gaze as he turned around. A small smile appeared on his face as if he was pitying him.

He saw Bai Liù smiling as he mouthed him, "This is just a game."

--All of this, everything, is just a game.

Armand forgot how he logged out of the game as he was still in a daze. He stumbled his way into his room in the Anomaly Authorities, digging out the letters he kept, the calling card that Mu Sicheng sent him, and he ripped them into pieces madly, setting them all on fire.

From the alcohol that he drank with Mu Sicheng, the anomaly that they toyed with, and the empty bullets that he used, he threw them all away, puked them all out, and forgot everything that he could forget.

Armand lay on his bed for a long time. He shut his eyes, he could almost smell the scent of blood from under his bed, hear that guy snickering as he called him a dumbass, and see the stars sparkling freely above the endless field.

But when he opened his eyes, Armand's gaze filled was filled with emptiness. There was nothing.

He got up like a puppet, changing the fake bullets in his gun into real bullets, and he contacted Mu Sicheng--he didn't know if Mu Sicheng would come, he only hoped that Mu Sicheng would play this long friend game until the end.

Armand will be there until the end.

Mu Sicheng showed up.

So Armand put an end to this game he called being friends. Tears rolled down his face, he gritted his teeth, and he shot this bad guy who was full of lies for the first time, and this bad guy also clawed a huge gap in his throat.

The moment before Mu Sicheng's body met the ground, he stared at Armand with disbelief. It seemed like he couldn't believe that Armand would do such a thing to him.

Mu Sicheng's features twisted in pain. His hands transformed into monkey claws difficultly as he crawled towards Armand.

Armand thought he was about to attack, so he used his last breath, shooting him once again.

He shot his temples this time. Mu Sicheng took Armand's hand into his with his monkey claws, saying with his hoarse voice, "--Sorry that I caught your brother."

Mu Sicheng's hand was on top of Armand's hand, he seemed to want to just grip it for a bit. He stared at Armand with his hazy eyes, the usual mischievous smile was not there, there was only a pair of dim eyes.

This guy was just shot dead by him, but the lost words to him were sorry that I caught your brother.

Armand's tears slowly filled his eyes.

He wanted to talk to this bad guy who just died, but he found that he couldn't make a noise. Armand realised that Mu Sicheng used his monkey claws to tear a big hole in his throat. His voice was probably gone, and he couldn't speak anymore.

Armand felt his body turning cold, his heartbeat slowed down gradually.

The last thing he saw was a pair of black leather shoes making their way towards him, the same colour as the black whip that was being dragged across the ground.

Armand saw that person kneeling down with one knee, turning over the head of Mu Sicheng whom he just shot dead. He embraced it gently, closing Mu Sicheng's widened eyes with his gloved hands respectfully.

Armand heard this person leaning down, whispering softly to Mu Sicheng who was already dead, "--If this is the game that you choose, then this is your 【ending】."

"But death is just a long slumber to you, your soul is my eternal property. When you wake up, we'll be together again."

"Sleep well."

His tone was as soft as a feather, resembling a father trying to coo a child to sleep patiently, telling them a beautiful take about death.

Armand used all of his strength to lift his head, wanting to take a good look at the person who had come to collect Mu Sicheng's corpse.

But no matter how hard Armand tried to open to look at that person's face, under the soft, alluring tone of that person, he felt his eyelids growing heavier and his breath growing fainter.

Before Armand completely shut his eyes, he thought, if his brother was here, he would definitely scold him for attacking despite knowing that he's not strong enough, he would also make him write a three thousand words essay on why he wouldn't develop a relationship between his enemy Mu Sicheng, and make him hand it in before the next day comes...

A tear trailed down the corner of Armand's eyes. Just like a butterfly in the wind, his soul fluttered into a long slumber that was named death.

The hurricane within the walls finally came to a stop.
