49：Village of Demons of Dreams
Chapter 49: Village of Demons of Dreams
Some time later, the group finally arrives in the main capital of the territory, the Magmelia Village. They are surprised by the place itself, because rather than a village, it looks more like an amusement park. Regardless, they can finally relax in the park, after having endured so many hardships.

 Add: (Debrian... Debrian...) Elesis: ... Wait, I think the village Baryon mentioned is just up ahead. Rena: They're active at night, right? It looks bright and loud. How should we head in? Chung: (I knew it... I wasn't just seeing things. It's slightly different from the direction that the needle is pointing.) Rose: A village of Dream Demons... Lu, is there anything we should watch out for?- Chung: I'm curious, too. We did fight against them, but we don't know much beyond that. Other than the description Asella gave us.
 Lu: I suppose that's quite true for you. Let's see... They're quite straight-forward. They like to play.- Add: Who doesn't?
- Lu: Don't interrupt me! You can say they are truly an incarnation of fun. They will spend their lives chasing their interests.
- Lu: Since they already experienced death, they will charge like moths to a flame as long as it looks fun for them.
- Chung: They experienced death...? Do you mean they were brought back from the dead?
 Aisha: Eeek, then are th... th, they Undead? Like skeletons? We fought with dead beings...? Ciel: Is that how it works? By that definition, I'm an Undead too, aren't I? Ain: Mr. Half-Dead... Eve: When will you call us by name, Ain?- Lu: Hmhm, it's not that simple. Anyway, they stir up your emotion in various ways and take your life force.
 Noah: What happens... when they take your life force? Don't tell me you end up dead...- Lu: I'm not certain. I don't think there was a case like that. They are usually mild-natured, so they might bother you one moment, but are also quick to lose interest.
 Ara: They sound almost like dokkaebies. Or... cats?- Lu: Oh, that reminds me of one story.
- Lu: One day, an adventurer met someone they got along with swimmingly, so he danced and sang all night long.
- Lu: But when dawn came, a passerby who saw them took the adventurer by arm and dragged him, seething with anger.
- Lu: Irritated, the adventurer snatched away and asked him what was his deal, in which the passerby answered.
- Lu: 'Don't you understand? Look at your wrist!'
- Rena: What was on his wrist...?
- Lu: When he looked at his wrist, he noticed... that his wrist became so thin, that it was skeletal!
- Aisha: Gyaaa! Did he die?! Did he become an Undead, too?
- Lu: Hohoho, no, that wasn't the case. But if it weren't for that random passerby, perhaps?
 Raven: That's an interesting story, but some of us may become scared, so perhaps you should stop the teasing. Laby: But if they played all night long, it must be real fun, right? Maybe they're nice. Do you think we can become friends?- Lu: Since they even lost their Queen in Elrios, they will probably be low in numbers. They might not be so threatening.
- Lu: IF they show no desire to fight, I believe we can pass through peacefully, even if they're tiresome.
- Rena: Then let's act like visitors. Everyone take this.
 Elsword: Huh? What is this? It's heavier than it looks.- Raven: They're gold coins. This is the first time I saw ones like these. Are they currencies of the Demon Realm? Where did you get them?
- Rena: Haha, I received some as reward for work at the White-Ghost Land. Let's go around and use this up.
- Rena: We'll act like rich adventurers who've come to look for a place to rest after a big job at the ruins!

 Diana: Oh my, another guest? We have a lot of visitors lately. Eris: Maybe the word is out already! Hohoho, come, come, welcome! Iccus: We'll make sure you'll have the time of your life as long as you stay!- Elsword: Thanks! We're adventurers, and uh, we went to ruins and got jewels... I mean treasure! I mean...
- Add: Well, you get the gist. We have more than enough gold to spend, and we'd like to spend all of it before we leave. Why don't you lead us the way?
- Diana: Of course! Come, come this way!
- Laby: Whoa! Look! There's a floating train!
- Rose: The tracks look uneven and the speed keeps changing... to be considered an ordinary transportation. What is it for?
 Eris: Would you like to try riding it? It will give you a chilling thrill!- Chung: That sounds like fun! I'd like to try.
- Elesis: I'll pass. Why don't you go ahead and... Ugh, stop pushing...!
- Eris: Now, it's this way to the ride! If you don't hurry, you'll have to wait on line!
- Ciel: (Is this the start of the operation?)
- Aisha: (Alright... Everyone ready? Remember, act natural and play along!)
 Clamor: Noah? We should get going, too.- Noah: Mm... Is this fine? Aren't we letting down our guards too much? They are demons that invaded Elrios...
 Iccus: Here... Take this.- Noah: Ah! That scared me... Huh? Are you... Are you giving this to me?
- Iccus: (Nod)
- Noah: Thank you... Um, what is it...?
- (SPARK!)
- Noah: Uah! An explosion...
- Clamor: Oh, it's fireworks!
- Noah: Fireworks? You mean the things that explode in the sky?
- Clamor: Yup. These are much smaller than those. If you hold on to it, you can see pretty lights until it burns out.
- Clamor: Did you never see ones like these before?
- Noah: I've only seen them from afar. Wow... Amazing....

- (SMASH!)
- (BEBEBEE BEBEBEE...)
- (POOF! BAM BABABAM!)
- Lu: 762 points? Oho! Not bad, Ciel!
- Ciel: Hm, no matter how many times I try, I can't get it higher than Raven's score earlier. I think I can get it if I try just one more time...
- Lu: I don't think so. There's more than a 100 points difference to overcome.
- Lu: Everyone has different talents? You're just as fine as you are, with scores as 700s and all!
- Ciel: Thanks for accentuating the score, while seemingly cheering me up.
- Lu: Ohoho! But, I must admit, it looks fun watching from the side!
- Ciel: Are you interested? Here.
- Lu: Alright! Let's see...
- (CRASH!!)
- (BEBE... BEE... B... EBEBEE...)
- (POOF! BAM BABA... BAM!)
- Lu: 927 points! Ohoho! A new record! I have the highest score!
- Ciel: Lu... It's not fair to use the claws.
- [Shooting Game]
- (BANG! BANG! BANG!)
- Rose: Haa! Now, where's the next target?
- Elesis: There, in the corner!
- (BANG BANG!)
- Elesis: Oh! Bullseye! It was in a difficult location, but you got it just fine.
- Rose: That wasn't me.
- Chung: Haha, I was a bit faster.
- Rose: You're quite talented in handling guns, Chung.
- Chung: It's probably different from actual guns, but it's not bad!
- Elesis: Great job, everyone! Now, let me...
- (PEW! ... PEW, PEW!)
- Rose: Ah, that was close! It managed to graze the target.
- Elesis: Aww! I was the only one that missed everything!
- Chung: Interesting. I didn't think there was anything you couldn't do, Elesis.
- Elesis: Tsk, give me another one! I'm going to try until I get one!
- Chung: Maybe you still have motion sickness from the train earlier. You'll get it in no time!
- Rose: Hm... Try standing a bit to the side. Put your left leg forward, shoulder-distance.
- Elesis: Oh, like this?
- Chung: Looks good. You can do it!

- [Souvenir Shop]
- Laby: Ooh? What's this? It looks like a conch shell, but something's splashing inside!
- Eris: It's a toy that makes pretty bubbles when you pull the trigger! Here, take a look!
- (POP POP POP!)
- Laby: Whoa! So pretty!
- Noah: .......
- Clamor: ... You should go and have fun. You've been standing stiff until now.
- Noah: It's not as easy as you say. Who knows what the Order would be up to while we're like this. I should stay on guard at the very least.
- Clamor: It's not that I don't understand...
- Clamor: Hey, Noah, most skilled magicians can use magic without having to say the spells.
- Clamor: But when they use offensive magic, they still call out the spells. Do you know why?
- Noah: Why is that?
- Clamor: There are two main reasons. One is the let your allies know you are using magic.
- Noah: That... makes sense. They might be startled if you suddenly use magic without saying anything.
- Clamor: Another reason is because staying silent messes with the magician's concentration. It's loud on the battlefield, right? When it's like that, it's harder to keep silent.
- Clamor: Focusing on your own emotion withou getting along with the surroundings drain you more than you realize.
- Noah: Are you saying... I'm like that right now?
- Clamor: Yes. So, relax and enjoy the ambiance. And respond to others.
- Laby: Noah! Are you listening?
- Noah: Oh, sorry. I didn't hear you. Could you repeat what you said?
- Laby: The thing you are holding... It looks like a stick. Have you been carrying it all along?
- Noah: Oh... It's a stick that creates fireworks when you light it. You can't use it anymore since it's all burnt out... But I guess I was just holding on to it.
- Laby: Oooh! You must have really liked it! Laby didn't see it, but it must have made pretty fireworks!
- Laby: Oh, Laby's got an idea! Can you hold it out like this?
- Noah: Huh? Like... this?
- Laby: Yup! Now, if Laby does this, and that, with Nisha!
- (PONG!)
- Noah: Wha! What was that!
- Laby: Tada! Cotton Candy Gurumi!
- Noah: Wow...! It really looks like a cloud. I've never seen them up close like this before.
- Laby: Laby can make more! Gurumi, Gurumi, come out!
- Clamor: .......

- [Park Table]
- Aisha: You went to Elrios? You were all soldiers then?
- Diana: Huhuhu, it's all in the past. Once we met our new Queen, we decided to settle here.
- Diana: We tried very hard to create and decorate this place! I hope you like it!
- Elsword: We like it. Thank you.
- Eve: (Elsword. We must hear a definite answer on the invasion.)
- Elsword: You were part of the Red Demon King faction, right? Do you know anything about the other factions? Like what they're doing now...
- Diana: Mm... Mm... No? There's nothing I can tell you about the other factions. I don't think I've met them, even.
- Add: It seems... you didn't have a close alliance with the other factions.
- Elsword: Then why did you invade Elrios? Do you know?
- Aisha: (You're being too direct! Are you trying to get caught?!)
- Elsword: (Ugh, no, I...!)
- Diana: I don't know, maybe Karis had a reason? We just followed our Queen's orders. Plus, it looked fun to go to a foreign land.
- Diana: Did you come to join an army or something? Sorry to say, but the Red Demon Army dissolved, and I don't think any of us know anything.
- Elsword: Yeah... It seems like it.
- Add: (Are you even trying to hide?)
- Elsword: (Ow, what do you want! Why don't you ask, then!)
- Eve: I suppose you wouldn't know why Ran decided to dissolved the army, then?
- Diana: Nope. But if I had to guess, you know, when we were in Elrios, Ran got really angry when things didn't turn out well at the burning village.
- Diana: Then all of a sudden, he said we're returning to the Demon Realm. So? We decided to return just like that.
- Add: (Burning village... She means Lanox.)
- Aisha: (Once the Large El was restored, the demons were set back. I thought that was the main reason for their retreat, but I guess the Red Demon Army decided to retreat for a different reason.)
- Add: (He broke his word...? It must be related to the Priestesses and the prophecy. Since Scar's main purpose was to summon the Demon God.)
- Diana: Anyway, why do you ask? You're asking like you've all planned together.
- Add: None of your business.
- Aisha: Hey! Don't say it like that! Ahahaha, you see you need a lot of information when you're traveling! So we were just wondering.
- Elsword: Yeah, it's just a habit of ours! Anyway, this place is so nice and fun, that I don't want to leave.
- Diana: That's great! You should enjoy and stay as long as you want! There's not much, since it's a new village...
- Eve: No, it's astounding. I wouldn't have noticed it's new if you didn't tell us.
- Add: (How long do we have to do this?)
- Aisha: (... For a while.)

- [Rose Garden]
 Vasili: Suspicious activity...? After returning to the Demon Realm, Commander Ran began searching for something.- Vasili: Afterwards, the Red Demon Army was put on standby until the next order. It was quite a long time. We had quite a few deserters.
- Rena: Deserters from the army? I guess the army wasn't being maintained properly.
- Vasili: Yes. When they all left and the remaining army finally created what could be called a base... Earl Ran ordered our dissolvement.
- Vasili: We were going to leave as well... But the new Queen negotiated with Ran and received this land to build a village for Dream Demons. After that, we settled here.
- Ain: ... From the story, there's no way to tell what the Shadow Earl was thinking, doing all of this.
- Raven: It was a mistake to determine that Berthe's death was what caused the disturbance with the Red Demon Army.
- Rena: I'm sorry to be so inquisitive, but can I ask another question? What happened to Ran after that?
- Vasili: The only one who met with the Earl after the dissolvement order is out Queen. I cannot tell you anything, whether if he's still at the manor, or if he left... because I do not know.
- Ara: ... Ah, excuse me. I'm getting tired...
- Rena: Will you be alright by yourself?
- Ain: I'll go with her. I'd like to get away from dem... I mean crowds and rest for a while.
- Rena: Will you? We'll gather more information here. You two can go out for a breath of fresh air.
- Ara: Thank you, Rena.
- Ara: .......
- Ara: ... Ain. May I ask you something?
- Ain: What is it?
- Ara: If you have something you want desperately, but do not have the conviction, what would you do?
- Ara: Have you experienced just being on edge because you don't have the conviction, until your wish itself begins to waver?
- Ain: .......
- Ara: I... That's what I'm feeling right now.
- Ara: I've traveled for a long time to save my brother. While I was on my journey, I met good people like you, and I thought I finally was able to set the standard for my path and justice.
- Ara: But even as I've accomplished all of that, I... I still came here with no understanding of my brother's thoughts.
- Ara: If he decided to use the power of demons because of hatred... and if he still harbors that hatred within him...
- Ara: What should I do?
- Ain: .......
- Ara: ... I'm sorry. This isn't something anyone else could answer for me.
- Ain: Regardless of your emotion... Your choice itself could be a mistake, since a mistake can sometimes be a choice. I don't think that's important.
- Ain: You're just you, Ms. Fox, no one else. You can only take a guess at what other's might think.
- Ain: So, how about thinking it from your perspective, Ms. Fox? Don't think about others. Think about what you would do.
- Ara: My choice...
- Ain: I... have made a choice too, something I cannot tell you about. I was also troubled by my thoughts, just like you.
- Ain: What I must do, but do not wish to and what I shouldn't want, yet still do... It wasn't easy, but I've made my choice.
- Ara: ... It's you. I trust you've made the right decision.
- Ain: You do? Well, I don't know about that.
- Ara: Huh?
- Ain: I do not know whether or not it was the right choice. It's no longer important to me. I just... made up my mind.
- Ain: Perhaps that's what you need, Ms. Fox.

Someone unknown appears in front of Ara and Ain as they were talking.

- Ara: Make up my mind...
- Ara: .......
 ???: Future is uncertain. It's only natural to hesitate before making the choice.- ???: Only humans understand the gem of hope buried in the sea of unknown. You move away from fear, yet find yourself drawn again.
- Ara: Who are you? You don't... look like a Dream Demon...
- Roamer: Hello! I'm a Roamer who's also here as a visitor. Haha, now that I'm old, I find their welcome to be a touch overwhelming, so I was finding somewhere to escape their attention.
- Roamer: You look like adventurers. Do you mind if I ask you something?
- Ain: ...... What is it?
- Roamer: I'm headed to the White-Ghost Land. It's rumored to be turbulent, so as a wanderer without a home, I have not stepped foot in that direction...
- Roamer: But I heard it's become quite habitable these days, so I've come all the way to Red Demon territory in hopes of visiting there.
- Roamer: But now that I'm actually close to the White-Ghost Land, it's a bit terrifying. I was trying to figure out if the rumors were true or not, but my mischievous friends here said they've never been, so they don't know.
- Ain: What are the rumors?
- Roamer: There's a rumor that the burning tower fell, and the snow king of old has been resurrected.
- Ara: It's very detailed... We've been there It should be safe to visit now.
- Roamer: My, that's wonderful news. Now I have one less thing to worry about.
- Roamer: Here, let me give you a reward.
- Ara: Oh no, it's fine...
- Ara: Oh! My pouch!
- Ara: Did you talk to us to give me this?
- Roamer: It was just part of the reason. Haha, you should make a habit of checking your surroundings before you leave.
- Roamer: Now, I've stayed here long enough. I shall take my leave.
- Ain: .......
- Ain: He's gone like the wind.
- Ara: Yes. He was a strange man.
 Eun: ... Ara, check the pouch. Do you notice anything different?- Ara: Huh? Um... ... Not really. Everything's in place. What's wrong, Eun?
- Eun: ... It's nothing. I guess I'm just paranoid.
- Eun: But next time, be wary when someone hands you somethin. Even if it's yours.
- Ara: Huh? Alright....
- Ain: (Humans understand the existence of hope...)
- Ain: (Human... Human...? In the Demon Realm?)
- Diana: What is it! I was talking to our customers!
- Vasili: I told you to tell me when we have guests, Yana!
- Vasili: And what it that! They're... They're the humans we encountered in Elrios!
- Diana: Oh, so you noticed as well? That's right I didn't recognize them at first. It's quite fascinating. I did hear humans grow up fast, but they changed a lot since last time!
- Vasili: This is not the time to remanence! Really... I thought my heart was going to stop when they grabbed me to ask questions.
- Diana: It already stopped once, what's the big deal... What do you want?
- Vasili: I'm really not in the mood to joke around. Sigh... Thankfully, from our conversation, they're pretending like they don't know us.
- Diana: Mmhm.
- Vasili: And they're here looking for Earl Ran.
- Diana: So, so?
- Vasili: Now is our chance to strike! We should tell our Queen and revenge Karis!
- Diana: Revenge? I was wondering where you were going with this. Isn't it time you let go of your habits from when you were alive? So unsophisticated!
- Diana: Mourning, revenge, resentment, desire... You won't live long if you think about these things, Vasili.
- Vasili: Ugh... I know! But you can't deny they're dangerous.
- Diana: I know. We've finally settled. It would be a shame if a fight broke out here.
- Vasili: And we can't lose anymore of our people. You understand what I mean, right?
- Diana: Yeah, yeah. But you know? I think they are really good kids. They really liked it here! I was touched.
- Vasili: What?
- Diana: I felt a strong pull of emotion. Really! My hunch is never wrong!
- Vasili: ... I thought you said you won't live long if you think about those things.
- Diana: Huhu! This is a bit different. Now, I have a brilliant idea. We can become friends with them, have revenge, and increase our numbers all in one! Want to hear me out?
- Vasili: I already get the feeling that you're up to no good.
- Diana: My! You know me so well! That's exactly what I want. I'm sure our Queen would approve.
- Diana: But we need something to distract them for a while... Well, they're looking for Ran, aren't they? Huhuhu... Then let's lead them to our Mr. Know-it-All.
- Diana: Our Mr. Magician and Puppet will show them a good time.
- Diana: Now, Vasha. Let's prepare a grand welcoming.
