Because the nightmare was purified, the ritual of peering into the nightmare also ceased.
At the same time that the three players woke up, Maria was also kicked out of the ritual.
"...What just happened?"
She opened her eyes in confusion.
Why did the nightmare end suddenly before Ah Dian took any action?
Maria had never seen such a strange nightmare.
and……
It seems that Bella's relationship with Dmitri is different from what she first knew.
Her expression was a little complicated.
According to Maria's previous understanding of Bella, she should be the type of emotional liar. With Dmitry's strong and calm character, he clearly said that he "never wants to see her again", and since then
, he was originally the friendliest to werewolves, but he was also full of prejudice against werewolves as a race.
Because Maria knew nothing about the first half of this relationship.
By the time she knew it, the two of them had turned against each other.
Maria subconsciously thought... Bella should have been cheating on Dmitri from the very beginning. She was a bad woman through and through.
That's why Dmitri is so angry.
It was precisely because of this resonance with her relatives that Maria became full of hostility towards Bella and killed her without hesitation, even breaking her into pieces.
But judging from the scene in the nightmare in the second half.
Bella's feelings for Dmitri... do seem to be real.
As a woman, Maria could clearly feel the strong love in Bella's heart.
It is by no means a false thing, unless she can even deceive her own heart.
...It sounds right now that I think about it.

Although Dmitry is not as talented as his younger brothers and sisters, he is by no means stupid. He has been able to assist his father in handling state affairs since he was in his twenties, and he handles everything in an orderly manner.
There is absolutely no shortage of wisdom in looking at people.
If Bella was a bad woman with ulterior motives from the beginning, she would never be able to defeat Dmitry.
——Only love can be exchanged for love.
At least at that time, Dmitri and Bella were indeed in love.
But later...
When did it change?
Maria frowned, lost in thought.
"I think it's because Shisanxiang's side failed to enter the third round, so there is no follow-up content for Ahden's side."
Unlike Maria.
Annan did not think about the relationship between Dmitri and Bella, but immediately asked Shisanxiang in a low voice who was sitting on the bed and checking the rewards for completing the level: "How long did you stay in the void after you ended the nightmare?
"
"……What?"
Shi Sanxiang was at a loss: "What void? The settlement stage? It doesn't seem to take long."
Annan nodded thoughtfully, then turned to the girl who was rubbing her eyes in confusion and getting up slowly and asked: "So Ah Dian - in terms of your time perception, before you entered the nightmare,
How long have you been waiting?"
"……wait?"
Ah Dian also had a confused look on his face: "It doesn't seem like that... In my impression, it seems to start directly after lying down."
"So, that's the problem."
Annan commented: "Although this nightmare is objectively sequential, from their point of view it is actually synchronized.
"If you think about it carefully, in fact, the time when Shisanxiang and Husky entered the nightmare were not completely synchronized. Husky was a little earlier than Shisanxiang, but this can be regarded as a reasonable error... because it is true that Husky appeared before Shisanxiang.
Earlier. They were in the same scene and on the same timeline."
Just like the nightmare of the great hunt that Annan participated in before.
Kafni entered that nightmare earlier than Annan. But they were indeed on the same timeline... Annan saw Kafni in the garden some time after she entered the nightmare.
But it was different at Ah Dian.
Her timeline is obviously completely different from the "main drama". It's much earlier... It doesn't even have anything to do with the other protagonist of this nightmare, the "rotten husband".
Annan realized that the players who had entered the nightmare seemed to have not yet reacted - after all, they had only seen half of the nightmare.
So Annan explained to them thoughtfully: "After Shi Sanxiang and Husky entered this nightmare, Ah Dian has not yet entered the nightmare. She seemed to have fallen into a real sleep.
"After you actors Dmitry and I ended the nightmare of gambling with Fufu, you two also fell into that state, but Ah Dian woke up. At that time, she had just begun to enter
Nightmare."
"...and I ended up after a very long opening CG. And it was holographic."
When Ah Dian said this, his face turned slightly red, and he coughed slightly to interrupt the topic.
She said dissatisfiedly: "It feels like I'm playing Quantum Break. At least I can move in Quantum Break. If this is a galgame, it's the type where you can directly view the staff list by holding down Ctrl..."
"The first one to enter plays Annan, the second one plays Dmitry, and the third one is the werewolf..."
Maria concluded in a low voice.
Annan nodded: "As for the plot of the third person, it should be related to the results of the first two people. If the third game cannot be entered, then the werewolf actor will not be able to act.
"Then this nightmare will have at least two endings. It is still unknown whether 'two consecutive wins' and 'two consecutive losses' will lead to the same ending. Even if they both obtain two consecutive victories, the third person will
Whether we will see the same scene leading to the ending of 'sugar and wine' is still uncertain..."
"But these are repeatable tests."
Maria added: "If you can't defeat Fufu directly, you can at least test what will happen if you lose both games."
What she meant was that she didn't expect the Huskies to beat Fufu at all.
"Indeed."
Annan nodded: "Then before going to Noah, I will pay attention to their purification progress. Especially, I will pay attention to the nightmare in the second half."
He looked at Shisanxiang and the others, and said seriously: "Then I will work hard on you during this period... The goal will be slightly changed. In addition to entering the third game, try to play different 'memories about Bella'
."
After that, he directly gave each of the three people a favorability score of 150.
This is about the extent to which three death exemptions can be redeemed from Annan.
"It's not hard, it's not hard."
Shisanxiang was immediately overjoyed.
At the same time, Annan spoke softly and said with a smile: "In addition, I recently plan to expand the team of Hand of Winter. In addition to the incapacitation school, the first batch is also prepared to accept wizards from other schools... Probably after Noah comes back, I
We will deal with this issue immediately.”
"clear."
Shi Sanxiang nodded seriously.
Husky blinked, looked at Anan and Shisanxiang, but said nothing.
And after Annan and Maria left their room.
Maria asked Annan in a low voice: "What did you think of?"
"what you mean?"
"When the nightmare just ended, I saw you frown."
Maria asked seriously: "Did you think of something? Otherwise, it would only be the part just now, and you should not be able to show that expression."
"I did think of something...but there is no evidence yet, so let's not mention it for now."
Annan said softly.
When he heard Bella say "This candy is very sweet".
There is no evidence or any logic.
——Annan's [intuition] suddenly reminded him of Prince Philip who was far away in Noah.
I hope it's an illusion. Rather... it's better to be an illusion.
