Chapter 593: The Truth Of Everything
“You mean… the real Frederick noticed that he was in a nightmare? Then, he told you the information?”
Thirteenth Fragrance, who had just woken up, listened to Husky’s narration. He gradually understood the flow of events through the bullet text.
He looked at Husky with some strange eyes.
“Not bad, Brother Husky.”
—You dog, are you so sought after?
Why are people still carrying you even if I’m not around?… It’s as if the whole world is preventing Husky from being self-reliant.
Could this be the legendary dog ??that everyone favors?
“Yeah, but I don’t get it at all. Do you have any clues?”
Husky said frankly.
As he spoke, he handed over a lamb chop.
“Give me some water first. My mouth is so dry.”
Thirteenth Fragrance grumbled, but he took the lamb chops anyway.
He leaned on the bed and thought for a while before slowly saying, “There are a few things that can be confirmed.”
“First of all, ‘Professor Wolf’ is Gray Professor from the beginning. According to outsiders, Frederick should have become Professor Wolf. But considering your main mission, there is a step to save Frederick. I can take it that Frederick Melvin is also dead.”
“Frederick is dead too?”
Husky was startled, “You mean… all three are dead?”
“…Three?” Thirteenth Fragrance froze momentarily, but he couldn’t understand where the three came from.
However, he soon realized something.
…Oh, it’s Ingrid.
So Thirteenth Fragrance nodded, “You’re right.”
“I think that’s what happened. It’s Gray Professor’s conspiracy. The Gray Professor showed Justice that if Ingrid hadn’t been killed, she might have endangered Frederick’s safety. The Gray Professor made Justice believe that possibility.
“That’s why he made Justice ‘travel through time and space’ back in time, killed Ingrid, and ‘changed’ the past. Are you aware of the problem?”
“That is to say…”
Huskies held the poker with a solemn expression.
The corner of Thirteenth Fragrance’s mouth twitched, and he reminded. “Don’t forget. Ingrid is dead in the [historical ending].”
Before entering the nightmare, they learned that “Ingrid” and “Justice” were dead.
Ingrid was a victim of the earthquake that year. The results determined that Justice had committed suicide with more than ten knives in his body.
“—Then, what kind of ‘destiny’ Justice has changed?”
Things were going in the direction he wanted.
In other words, history was originally like this.
He had nothing to change at all.
“The fundamental problem is that this is the third nightmare level.”
Thirteenth Fragrance replied.
At the same time, Annan outside the nightmare also explained this to Delicious Wind Goose beside him, “That’s why there are three levels of nightmares.”
Annan sighed slowly.
With a deep sigh, complex emotions visible to the naked eye were slowly pushed out of Annan’s lungs like gray smoke.
It was at that moment that Thirteenth Fragrance entered the shallowest nightmare.
Annan had already fully understood this nightmare.
“Its hidden mechanism is not difficult to understand. It is even simpler than the Gallery Nightmare.”
So much so that Annan could understand it after deciphering it for a while.
Of course, it might also be because Annan was outside the situation that he could grasp the big picture clearly.
Annan glanced at the still-confused Delicious Wind Goose and said, “If you’re puzzled by this, then it’s a good thing… because you care too much about what the ‘truth’ is, which is why you’re puzzled.”
“I don’t quite understand yet.”
Delicious Wind Goose paused but still lowered his head and answered.
Old Goose did not like to pretend to know what he did not know.
The core of the nightmare had always revolved around those three people.
“It’s a matter of [understanding].”
Annan—or “Ghirlandaio” tapped his temple with the middle finger of his right hand, “What you lack is understanding. Thinking beyond logic… thinking beyond what you see. “
The key to unlocking this nightmare was placed in the nightmare.
In other words…
“Please allow me to keep you in suspense. I will put the most important part at the end, just like putting a richly flavored main dish as the climax of a meal course.”
“Let me start from the beginning—”
Annan smiled.
In the nightmare, Thirteenth Fragrance also said similar words to Annan.
“After knowing the true identity of Professor Wolf, we will naturally have a question — who is Frederick who has been deprived of his surname?”
“Is it Gray Professor?”
Sitting obediently by the bed, Husky couldn’t help but ask, “Did he kill three people one after another and steal Frederick’s identity?”
“Yes, but also not quite right.”
Thirteenth Fragrance sighed, with a somewhat complicated expression, “It’s more accurate to say ‘Frederick Wolfheart’ is an identity of Gray Professor.
“We already knew that Ingrid was dead long ago. Justice had also been dead for some time, and the autopsy result was ‘suicide’.
“Here’s a typical narrative trick…”
Thirteenth Fragrance looked at Husky and said slowly, “At first, we thought that Frederick killed Justice because ‘Frederick’ became the believer of Tragedy Writer and gained power from it. The last person Justice saw was Frederick.”
“However, after learning more information, the relationship between Justice and Frederick is not that bad. Frederick may have been killed too.”
“From this moment on, we will decisively abandon the preconceived judgment that ‘Justice was murdered by Frederick and disguised as suicide’. That’s because our new information has already conflicted with the basis of the old speculation. “
Why was the Idol Wizard of the Silver Rank able to murder the Shield of Unfallen, who was more robust in defense and vitality and had a higher Rank than himself?
Why hadn’t anyone found out that the murderer of Shield of Unfallen was Frederick after all these years?
The answer was simple.
It wasn’t Frederick who killed Justice.
Did Gray Professor have the ability to make Justice go back in time and save Frederick?
Obviously, the Gray Professor didn’t. If it was the Man in the Mirror himself, with the mirror he set up in the [past], maybe he could barely do it.
However, Gray Professor must not be able to do this.
In other words, since that time… even before that, Justice had been in a dream.
He [sees] the “possibility” of Frederick dying because of Ingrid.
The so-called [Dream Eater].
Of course, what he devoured was not only [dreams].
“Let’s put it simply.”
Annan crossed his fingers. The black-haired, black-eyed middle-aged man spoke in a steady and reliable voice, “Frederick Melvin and Justice didn’t die at the same time.”
“Frederic Melvin died before Justice.”
“Justice saw the possibility of ‘if Ingrid hadn’t died’ and the future he would change.”
“In fact, this nightmare has always been Frederick’s nightmare.”
Yes.
“—The order of death is reversed.”
Thirteenth Fragrance added.
It was not “Frederick Following Justice to Cinder Barren”.
Justice went to Cinder Barren to collect the body of his only friend, Frederick Melvin, commissioned by Gray Professor.
That was the second nightmare of “Saving Ingrid” that he broke free from.
The maker of this nightmare was “Gray Professor”, more accurately known as “Dream Eater” Trisino Seti.
