Me! Cleaner!

Chapter 409 Leon’s thank you gift

See what I'm most afraid of?

After hearing the words of the Nightmare King and looking at his face reflected in the mirror crown on its head, Leon's pupils could not help but expand slightly.

You cannot show your memories to others under any circumstances! Whether it's the existence of the badge system or the fact that he is a time traveler, it is the kind of secret that must not be leaked!

Especially the latter!

Once this secret was leaked out and people from the General Administration took notice, after thinking about the "soul from the unknown world" in the warning given by the Watch Palace, even if Director Scorpio could arrive within five minutes, his career as a cleaner would probably be ruined. It’s coming to an end too!

Faced with the sudden emergency, Leon, who originally wanted to wait until [Wine Fairy] expired and then use the Archer's Mark and [Dream Invader] to struggle, suddenly did not care about leaving any trump cards and directly activated [Dream Invasion] Those who are prepared to fight to the death.

However, although the [Dream Invader] is an abnormal object made with the weapon of the Lord of Dreams, and its status is not low, it is still not enough to face the Nightmare King who has come in person.

Even though Leon relied on the enhancement of the shooter's mark to barely lock onto the Nightmare King's consciousness, before he could drag the Nightmare King into the dreamland, the Nightmare King's skinny head strangely split horizontally from the middle, neatly. Divided into two.

"hehe."

Accompanied by a sneer with a hint of contempt, the countless nightmares that made up the body of the Nightmare King flowed rapidly, and like a crab shedding its shell, it directly shed a new self from the old body along the cracked part.

"You don't think you can use the same method on me a second time, do you?"

After playing with the old body that was captured by the [Dream Invader], and his eyes gradually became confused, he looked at Leon, who looked a little annoyed in front of him, and the Nightmare King, who looked slightly happy, and said mockingly:

"The secret technique of Sagittarius Palace is really amazing. It can even make you, a third-level cleaner, perform at a level comparable to that of a director for a short period of time. I was caught off guard and almost let you escape from my hands.

It's a pity that no matter how good the thing is, it ultimately depends on who is using it. If the person using this thing is the Sagittarius Director himself, it will be useless no matter how hard I struggle, I will be dragged directly into the dream.

But with the strength of your soul, you cannot lock my main consciousness at all. You can only capture hundreds of irrelevant nightmares at most. There are as many scattered nightmares as there are in the river, so what can I do to you? "

“…”

…

"Okay, after struggling like this, you should give up."

He took off the mirror crown from his old empty body and put it on his head again. The gray fog giant stretched out his bluish-gray skinny fingers and wiped the mirror surface of the crown with his fingertips. He made a hoarse and malicious voice. , broke into Leon's eardrums unreasonably.

"Come on! In the name of the Lord of Nightmares, I command you to open your heart and show me your deepest fears!"

Following the shouts of the Nightmare King, the scorching sun hanging high above the head flickered several times, and then seemed to be moved from midsummer to late autumn, from the blazing white that burned the eyes to the orange and weak at the turn of autumn and winter. The ground was sprinkled with light that was not very warm.

Immediately afterwards, the surrounding yellow sand quietly faded away, and with Lyon standing motionless as the center, the endless sea of ​​sand quickly dissipated, turning into a dilapidated ward filled with coughs and the pungent smell of medicine.

On the somewhat dirty bed at the edge of the ward, a sickly girl with a pale face that was almost bloodless, turned her head slightly and said in a soft but slightly stubborn voice:

"Brother, how about...just leave me alone?"

“…”

So what he fears most is just the death of his family?

After looking at the thin **** the hospital bed, and then at the distorted face of Leon in front of the hospital bed, the Nightmare King, who had been a little excited just now, suddenly flashed a strong look of disappointment in his eyes.

Although the sense of fear is very strong, and the strong unwillingness and resentment are also very interesting, but this level of fear and nightmares, I simply don't want to see too much, and I can't arouse the slightest interest at all.

boring.

Looking at the nothing new nightmare in front of him, the Nightmare King, who had replaced part of the boundless desert with the deepest fear in Leon's heart, couldn't help but clicked his tongue in displeasure.

It seems that his ability to face eternal torture indifferently is not really fearless, but it is probably the effect of some kind of abnormality.

Regarding this guy who almost got himself into trouble, he originally thought that his deepest fear would be something interesting, but was that all it turned out to be? This is really...

Um? What is he going to do?

Seeing Leon rushing out of the ward with a distorted face, clutching the knife he picked up, as if he wanted to do something, the Nightmare King finally regained his interest and took the initiative to change his body to a height similar to that of an ordinary person. Followed all the way.

Then, everything that happened two months ago was repeated without much change.

"Is anyone here? I'm here to apply!"

"What are you looking at? Have you never seen a demon?"

"Didn't I make it clear to you? A normal person like you is not suitable to join the Cleanup Bureau." "Please wait a moment!"

"My powers of observation are very special! I can distinguish some special things. If I have direct contact, I can also get some relevant information immediately!"

"Well, that sheep is a 'special thing', so let's start talking about it now."

After the red-haired director asked the "examination questions", faced with the last life-saving straw in front of him, Leon, who had already risked everything, took a deep breath, touched the black goat with a slightly trembling arm, but...

"?!!"

No? Why not?

Realizing that the situation was different from what he thought, a look of deep panic suddenly appeared on Leon's face, and an unparalleled panic spread, as if a big, cold hand was clutching his heart.

It should be there! It should obviously be there!

As long as I touch it with my hand, something will pop up and tell me the relevant information about the abnormal object. Why is there nothing now? !

"Oh, it turns out he is a madman."

After shaking her head in disappointment, the red-haired woman with a somewhat blurry face said coldly:

"Go away! This is not where you should be!"

"But...but I obviously..."

"Go away! I only say this once! Humph! What a waste of time!"

“…”

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

As the Nightmare King watched with interest, Leon was kicked out of the Cleanup Bureau in despair, his head hanging with blank eyes, and he moved back to the hospital step by step like a zombie.

After spending all his money and trying his best for more than a week, but still unable to raise enough money for the medicine, Leon had to cough all night long at the insistence of the sickly girl, unable to even fall asleep. She carried it back home.

Immediately afterwards, everything was just like what the sickly girl had originally suggested. When the coughing all night long stopped, in order to continue to receive the girl's pension, Leon had to throw her body into the sewage river at night and pretend that She is still alive to defraud her pension.

But less than a month later, this little scheme was discovered by the military officers who came to verify, and more fines were imposed. The family's life became worse, and the family became more and more sallow and thin.

The following year, a fever epidemic broke out in the royal capital. The two children, who had been malnourished for a long time and were physically weak, were unable to survive the lack of medical treatment. The small home that was once even a little crowded finally became completely Empty...

…

I see.

Seeing Leon sitting on the edge of the small bed with his back hunched, reaching out to touch an old photo album, his eyes full of numbness, the Nightmare King raised his eyebrows slightly, and finally understood what he feared most.

If he does not have the qualifications to become a liquidator and fails to join the liquidation bureau, he can only be like this nightmare, losing everything bit by bit and inevitably.

So if you want to torture him, you don't need to physically torture him. It's enough to block his original memory and let him relive it infinitely.

Haha, I didn’t expect it to be so simple.

He waved away the dream that he had used [Mirror Crown of Fear] to reflect from the deepest part of Leon's heart, switching everything around him back to the boundless desert.

Looking at the real Leon, who had been silent since the dream Leon rushed out of the hospital, and seemed to have suffered a huge blow, the Nightmare King couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and commented happily:

"Although your fear is a bit ordinary, it is quite interesting overall... Haha, I have already thought of how to punish you for your offense against me.

Listen up, I declare, you are going to be… What are you going to do? "

"I want to give you a big gift."

He crushed the bottle containing [Dream Eater Armor] and stuffed all the remaining beetles behind the empty body of the Nightmare King that he had shed earlier.

In the confused look of the Nightmare King, Leon expressionlessly took out the [Unfair Snake Contract] and exchanged it for a bright red hair from the red-haired director outside.

Immediately afterwards, the empty shell body filled with the eating [Dream Eater Armor] disappeared from his hands as a matter of course, and appeared in the night sky of the capital filled with countless nightmares.

"From now on, no one can **** dream!!"
