Elaine thought she would have to walk a long way to reach Titania's palace, but in fact, it only took a moment.

When the magnificent light and shadow reunited in the chaotic colors, the fairy palace surrounded by forests and mountains came into view. But it was not as beautiful as Elaine imagined. In fact, the colors began to fade under the diffuse shadows, the vines withered and withered, and the fragile dead leaves were quietly waiting for the moment to be crushed in the courtyard and walkways. The entire majestic building seemed to be strangled by darkness and loneliness.

The sounds of birds and animals disappeared, and the forest and flower buds lost their vitality. It was as if the magic also disappeared, leaving only the ruins of late autumn. Under the chill, Elaine felt a deep melancholy, just like her I have been here before, but now everything is different.

Titania walked gracefully along the walkway step by step, heading towards her fairy palace, "This place is on the edge of hell. We use magic to bring life back to this place..."

"That's just a disguise, Titania." Michael walked behind Titania. There was no trace of emotion on his lonely and calm face. He just said a fact lightly, "All good things are just In order to keep the fairies from leaving the lie of fairyland, hell is hell, there is the underworld, there is the place of sin, there is no beauty and hope there."

"Do you really think so?" Titania turned her head. She did not feel angry because of Michael's cold words. Instead, she smiled slightly, "Nothing is eternal, Lord Michael. Gods and angels are So, do you think there will be no change in hell? Is there really no hope in hell?"

Michael was silent, and he shook his head very honestly, "That is a part of his father's great plan, a precision part and gear. It should not have flaws, but... you are right, Ms. Titania, When Lucifer became king in hell, maybe changes had already occurred."

Michael said and looked down at Elaine again. The moment Elaine and Michael's eyes met, she seemed to see a trace of confusion and uneasiness in her father's eyes.

"Or maybe those are the answers we don't know, Lord Michael. For mortals, the world they live in is real. Magic, fairyland, angels and demons are just fictitious elements in legends. We are all just They are creatures in a world that does not exist." Titania walked into the fairy palace door that opened automatically. "They call it fantasy. They use it to escape the troubles of the world. They seek courage and hope here. They are here. Get shelter, or create pain... No matter what, even lies have some meaning here, and these meanings define reality. In this case... Is all this really just an illusion? Is it really just a fantasy? An empty dream?"

Elaine listened carefully to Titania's words. She couldn't understand the full meaning of these words at all, but she seemed to understand, as if she still didn't want to admit that she was far away from the earth and reached a place that a mortal might never reach in her lifetime. The distant realm.

But this is obviously not a legend or fairy tale, even though there are elves, monsters, talking animals and giants, and even flying dragons.

Elaine wanted to deny all of this, but she knew she couldn't. They seemed to have become a part of Elaine. Just like Titania said, her subconscious accepted them, and in the moment of acceptance, They become reality, and through this reality they are closely connected to the outside world.

"Doesn't this deny the existence of the self?" Michael asked confusedly, "In this case, doesn't it mean that we will never be able to touch freedom?"

Titania stood in the center of the crystal palace. She turned around and faced the extremely confused and distressed Archangel, "I thought it would be you who would guide us to find an answer."

"No." Michael shook his head, "I heard my father's voice and I got a revelation, but that was not the answer I wanted. I only saw a truth that shocked me extremely. If mortals can be above Above us, so why did we create them? Why do we need their beliefs? Why can’t we define our own existence?”

"Is all this really that important?" Elaine suddenly said, "I can see you. To me, to Mona, you are real, and there is not much difference between you and us. , except... well, more beautiful and taller. Am I crazy? Are we all fictitious in your eyes?"

Michael was stunned.

"She is very smart, Lord Michael." Titania smiled, and the gauze-like curtain slowly opened from behind the Fairy Queen. As the ground cracked and the stone bed slowly rose, Titania She stopped smiling, looked at Michael and said seriously, "Are you really going to make this trip?"

Michael nodded, "Life should not wither because of this. If Lucifer has his own struggle, then I also have my own struggle. I have abandoned the City of Silver, I am no longer an archangel, I am just myself .”

"You see, changes are always happening." Titania's wise and mysterious gaze turned to Elaine. She seemed to have thought of something, and her eyes became gentle. "Believe me, you will not fight alone. There is another child who is touching the magic. ’s origin, he may become part of the hope before the end.”

Michael nodded, he knew that what Titania was talking about was her son Tim Hunter, who merged into the torrent of life and touched the hub of magic, the Rock of Eternity.

"Let's get started." Michael walked to the stone bed, and then looked at Elaine from the edge.

"Do you really want to..." Mona was worried, she looked at Elaine and didn't say anything.

"Don't worry, Mona, you have also seen that my... father is very powerful! To be honest, this is just a dream. Can you think that looking for the bastard who killed you will bring us here?" Elaine smiled Get up, "That's actually kind of cool, right?"

"I, I'm still scared." Mona frowned, "Maybe it's all my fault. I shouldn't have gone to find you. I should have just disappeared..."

"No! I need you, Mona!" Elaine yelled with reproachful hands on her hips, "We swore an oath! Moreover, my grandmothers are by my side every day, and I have long been abnormal, so, You see? Maybe for me, this is normal. So... wait until I come back, okay?"

Mona nodded.

Only then did Elaine make up her mind and walked towards Michael. She looked at her strange yet familiar father, "What should I do? Find a rope and strangle myself?"

"No, child." Michael looked at Elaine and said, "In fact, we have left Wonderland."

The heat wave began to burn Elaine's cheeks. She looked around in surprise, and then found that she was standing in the vast sea of ​​sand. There was no sign at all. She couldn't even remember how she escaped from the body.

"Oh my god... didn't you even give me any notice?" Elaine said, staring at the round graves made of rubble in the distance.

"Let's go, Elaine." Michael stepped on the hot sand sea, "Don't stop, don't look back, we must move forward, and... we have to find a ghost, we need their blood To confuse Izanami’s attention.”

"Uh... blood?" Elaine squinted her eyes and looked at the mist under the heat wave.

"Yes, we must kill them and then cover our bodies with their blood." Michael said lightly.

"Great!" Elaine struggled to keep up with Michael, "I hope we don't have to go to jail!"

"I hope so too." Michael looked firmly and proudly at the endless sand sea cemetery in front of him.
