Seeing the countless data streams flowing rapidly downward in front of him, Annan clearly felt the familiar feeling of weightless falling gradually returning.
It was as if the stagnant air around him was gradually melting.
Annan, who was hanging in the void, also began to gradually fall...
"...Dear, I hope you know: some cursed people really don't deserve this suffering, but some people deserve to be cursed."
Annan heard a somewhat familiar voice ringing in his ears.
He was a little surprised.
Because of that voice...
It seems to belong to His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince Albert?
The next moment, Annan's consciousness completely fell into darkness.
"...Your Highness? Your Highness Annan?"
He heard a cautious voice ringing in his ear.
At that moment, Annan even thought that he had not successfully entered the nightmare...
But he reacted quickly.
He noticed that he seemed to be sitting on a chair - and the world in front of him became much larger.
No, that's not the case.
——He has become smaller.
"...Sorry, I just fell asleep."
Annan subconsciously showed a tired expression and made a childish voice.
He noticed that he seemed to be staying in an extremely luxurious palace.
He was wearing fur that was shaped like a mink coat. This strange fur showed an extremely pure white color and was embroidered with complex silver patterns.
But the strange thing is that even though he is wearing such heavy clothes... Annan doesn't feel hot at all.
Annan could clearly feel that the room temperature was about 27 or 8 degrees Celsius. Seeing the thin clothes of the maids walking around in the palace, Annan could immediately tell that it was summer.
He seemed to have noticed the movement on Annan's side.
The two people chatting not far away looked over.
One of them is a woman with long black hair and dark red pupils. She can't tell her specific age. It would make sense to say she is in her twenties, thirties or forties. She is wearing a casual dress.
The dark yellow gauze with black spots reminds people of moth wings, with a calm expression, bright eyes, and a natural demeanor.
The person chatting with her was a young man who looked to be in his twenties.
He is nearly 1.8 meters tall, with deep blue pupils, a slim and well-proportioned figure, and a straight back. His pure black long hair hangs down to his waist, and is styled extremely smooth and smooth, without any sticking up hair.
The young man's skin is as cold as jade and bloodless pure white. He wears clothes with the same style as Annan, but what is different from Annan is that even the wolf hair on his collar is not messy, and his body is clean
It's so clean that there's not even a trace of dirt between the nails.
But what didn't match that handsome and flawless appearance was that he was always frowning, looking very serious. Maybe because he often frowned, you could faintly see shallow wrinkles on his forehead.
"What's wrong, Annan?"
He frowned, walked over and asked flatly: "Are you tired?"
They were obviously words of concern.
But there was no trace of twists and turns in his tone, and he was calm to the point of being almost indifferent.
"Your Highness Dmitry."
The attendant behind Annan leaned forward slightly with his upper body, put his hand on his chest, and respectfully saluted the young man in front of Annan.
...Is this Dmitry Winter?
So what he is using now...is the body of Annan Winter when he was a child?
Annan immediately realized the historical background of this copy.
Taking Annan's height as a fourteen-year-old as an estimate...this body is currently about nine or ten years old.
So the timeline should be four or five years ago...
Could it be what happened when Prince Albert and Kafni met Annan?
So this...
Annan's eyes moved to the lady who gave people a calm and reliable impression.
This should be the eldest princess of the Kingdom of Noah, Elizabeth Noah.
...It's really hard to tell that she is already over fifty years old.
"Yes, I'm a little tired."
But while Annan's mind was spinning, he just stood up and lowered his head apologetically: "I'm sorry..."
"Go and rest when you are tired."
Dmitri replied calmly.
There was no emotion in his pupils or words. It was as if his whole person was made of ice.
He turned back and asked Elizabeth calmly: "Your Highness, Princess, is there somewhere I can let Annan take a break? There are too many people here, and Annan's health has never been very good."
"some."
The eldest princess chuckled and nodded gently to Annan.
Her voice was calm and generous, giving people a strong sense of comfort, which was in sharp contrast to Dmitry: "You can let little Annan go from the side hall to the garden to have a rest. That was personally blessed by the Pope of Silver Jue
The flower fields have a very nourishing effect on the body and spirit."
After she said that, she turned back to look at a young maid wearing a white short-sleeved maid uniform with her hands crossed in front of her.
"Marian, I'm sorry."
She said gently.
But the maid bowed seriously and responded: "Yes, Your Highness."
At this moment, an old man not far away stood up silently.
He has a skinny figure... sunken cheeks and deep eye sockets. Even his hair is a little sparse. He wears pure black clothes like mourning clothes, without any color.
He stood silently behind Annan, slowly bent down respectfully and politely, and silently bowed to the eldest princess.
Annan immediately recognized his identity.
——It was Merlin Manning whom he had been talking about last night.
The maid glanced at the silent old man with some fear, walked up to Annan, and couldn't help but smile when she looked at his young face.
She bowed and stretched out her hand to Annan, coaxing softly: "Please come with me, okay? Your Highness Annan..."
Annan did not hesitate and handed his hand to the maid. He followed her towards the side door where there were few people, while the old man followed quietly.
At this moment, the introduction task of this copy finally appeared in front of Annan's eyes:
"1498, August 8.
"As Annan Rindong, the youngest son of Grand Duke Winter, you follow your elder brother Dmitri to replace Grand Duke Ivan Rindong and go to the Kingdom of Noah to attend the old king's eightieth birthday.
"This is the first friendly diplomatic action between the two countries since the Principality of Winter and the Kingdom of Noah entered a period of peace. It marks that the two countries will re-open formal business exchanges...
"--if everything goes well.
"It is very unfortunate, and justifiably so, that there are people who want to destroy this hard-won peace.
"And it's very simple.
"Whether it's Annan, Dmitry, Elizabeth... or anyone else, as long as one person dies, this birthday party will turn into a grand funeral.
"And, the trigger for the next war.
"What's more, they don't want to kill just one person.
"This will be a great hunting ceremony -
"Perhaps it is too difficult for you who are only nine years old to stop this. But only you can do it...because at this birthday party, only you, the young one, can move freely.
"Live. Destroy the conspiracy. Let more people live——"
