"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, are you alright?" The royal squire pushed the door open.

"It's far from okay...... Headache ...... It's about to explode......"

Konstanz Midknight kneaded his temples hard, trying to relieve the headache, but it was completely useless, and he felt like his brain was jumping and his face was in sharp pain.

He froze and looked down at the clothes on his body, which turned out to be blue and white cotton hospital gowns, and light and soft sheepskin indoor shoes on his feet.

"What's the matter with this dress?"

"When you're sick, you need to wear loose and comfortable clothing, you don't have to worry about hygiene, and the nurses give you a new one."

"This house is full of strange furniture, this is not the prince's bedroom, I ...... Where am I? ”

"Huh? What's wrong with you? ”

The royal chamberlain's eyes widened, he was a little unaccustomed to the way Prince Constance asked questions, after all, the prince had been crazy for several days.

Every now and then, the crown prince should shout madly, announcing that he has woken up for a nap,

Then he stretched, babbled some witchcraft incantations that no one else understood, and plunged headlong into the laboratory to continue his crazy research, not caring where he was, or what he was wearing.

"Have you forgotten, Your Highness, you are in the palace on the outskirts of the imperial capital."

"Oh? Which palace? Hermitage or Summer Palace? Also welcome... How is it that there are watchtowers and bunkers everywhere around? ”

"New, unnamed,

In order to prevent Voodoo assassins from visiting, the location has become a state secret, and the heavily armed guards are on duty 24 hours a day, and even suspicious birds are shot indiscriminately as witchcraft props.

Anyone who dares to climb over the guardrail or approach without permission in defiance of the warning sign will be arrested. ”

"Now, is this a palace or a prison?" Konstanz felt very uneasy: "Squire...... How do you look at me with such fearful eyes? I...... I guess I've been doing something bad lately......"

"Uh...... Actually, it's not too much.

That's when you're doing the experiment...... There will be an eerie sneer, and the nurses will choke on the scare. ”

"Now, friend, I swear I really haven't done that!

If so, I did it unconsciously like sleepwalking, so please apologize to the nurses on my behalf. ”

"You are the crown prince of the Imperial Empire, there is no need to apologize for anything, we are all proud to serve you."

"Your son...... What a beautiful thing! I ask you, what's the matter with the iron bars on this window? ”

"Prevent you from escaping, or prevent you from thinking about ......"

"So...... During the time I was dreaming, I was placed under house arrest as a mental patient? Konstanz was quick to realize what was happening:

"Damn...... This time must be a loss of death! I was already treated like a nerd, and now I'm definitely a laughing stock!

What a sleep...... It's been so long that I feel like I've been asleep for ten years. ”

"That can't be." The attendant took out his pocket watch and looked at it: "You just take a nap and take a nap, and it will only be twenty minutes at most." ”

"Ah...... I'm so sleepy......" Konstanz covered his mouth and yawned, thinking:

(I'm well aware of what happened before I lost consciousness,

At the time, Brother William and I were performing a witchcraft ritual in my sister's hospital room to save her.

Then the ritual failed, and I saw something terrible—

A demonic creature resembling the mural of the Templar Church was drooling and approaching me.

The guy had no eyes, only a large oval mouth on his head, covered with layers of fine fangs, a bit like a lamprey caught by an ocean-going fishing boat.

The pink tongue split like a viper, and the hoarse throat let out a moaning and growling like choking.

The creature was not a creature of this world, but came from some distant otherworld,

It should have been at that time...... I fell into a long dream, and the sleep in the dream gave birth to a dream within a dream, do you know how many nightmares I have experienced? What if you can't wake up?

It is terrible to think about it now that the spirit will live in a nightmare and suffer for the rest of its life, and the body will rot and die on the sickbed...... ）

Seeing that the prince was lost in thought, the attendant quietly walked out of the room, and after a while pushed the door again and entered, pushing a luxurious dining cart in his hand.

"Are you alright...... Your Highness, the Head Chef has prepared an afternoon tea with chocolate crepes, vintage black tea, and vanilla pudding. ”

"It's hearty, but I'm sorry, I'm in my stomach right now, and I have no appetite, so you can eat it."

Konstanz was interrupted from his thoughts, just as there was a strange noise outside the window, and he looked up;

A meteor streaked by, burning so violently that it stained the air around it red, and it was still clearly visible in the great white.

The meteor crossed the clouds and crossed the blue sky, dragging a long orange tail behind it, and it fell diagonally at a frightening speed, finally landing in the forest Zheng in the southeast

A servant and a master stood in front of the window and witnessed this spectacle, and the young red-clothed attendant, who believed in the Templar Church, drew a cross on his chest and said:

"Bad omen! I have heard from the pastor that red meteors are prone to disasters, but I hope that this year's harvest will not be affected and that my family will be safe......"

"My lord!" Konstanz was so shocked that his mouth opened wide: "Meteor...... The man's flying machine......

A dream within a dream...... That mysterious man who radiates light all over his body, his is real! ”

"What are you talking to yourself? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. ”

"That man told me to find him in the place where the meteorite fell, I must go and find out!" The intense desire to learn excited Constance and relieved his headache a lot.

"Uh...... What do you mean, please forgive me for not being able to understand it. ”

The royal attendants looked a little worried, fearing that the crown prince's madness had worsened again, and he began to talk nonsense again, and even fabricated a person who did not exist out of thin air.

Konstanz was a little anxious, and spat and shouted:

"Of course you don't understand, that's a dream within a dream! The visitor was a great benefactor, and thanks to him he had awakened me, I would have been trapped in a nightmare and suffered!

Simply put, an important person has come to me, and I have to meet him! ”

(What kind of mess is this...... The royal attendant frowned, and said in his heart:

(Should I report this to Dr. Freud and tell him that the prince is getting sicker?) But looking at the tone of his words, I feel that he is very sober......

Maybe I should believe him once, after all, this master is very gentlemanly,

Before he went crazy, he was extremely kind to us ordinary people, without the slightest bit of royal aristocrats, and he was not as difficult to serve as those nouveau riche in the countryside. ）
