An art museum located in the heart of Eldelius. The building looks majestic even though it is seen from a distance. In an exhibition room that was being opened to the public, a lot of people came there. On one hand Gabriel was looking with his eyes while holding a flyer that a gallery staff had given him one week earlier. Several people came to see the paintings exhibited by this art museum. Allegedly the painting comes from 100 years ago. When viewed from a distance it looks like a picture of an ordinary young woman with a very beautiful gaze. However, when he looked at it closely, another expression appeared on the painting's face. Gabriel who realized that before long took a step back. His feet seemed heavy. As he retreated more and more, he finally collided with an old man behind him.
TWO.
“Oh, sorry,” Gabriel said politely to the old man. And that person just walked away.
Gabriel then took a breath. It was a relief to him. There was so much crowd in this place that he felt exhausted and decided to get some fresh air. When he was about to leave the art gallery, Gabriel then saw someone he knew. That person's stature was not very tall with white skin. Out of curiosity, Gabriel approached the person.
"Excuse me, are you..."
"Excuse me sir, what are you doing?" said that person to Gabriel and was confused by his behavior
"Oh, sorry. I'm the wrong person."
Gabriel immediately left the person with shame on his face. The exhibition has finally reached its climax. People are getting more and more enthusiastic about the event. In the midst of the crowd that occurred in the art gallery, Gabriel felt strange again. He seemed to be able to feel someone's presence. This time he tried to focus and it was true. In the midst of the crowd appeared someone dressed in black and then made people panic, the panic was caused by the many victims who were killed in that place. The sound of a melody straining similar to the melody in his pocket watch made Gabriel pause for a moment. Once he was hypnotized in a daydream, he didn't expect someone to drag him from the dead.
"Hey, are you okay? why daydreaming? You should have gone to save yourself," said the voice in front of him
Gabriel then realized what had just happened. Shaking his head he tried to digest the situation. This time everyone in the crowd died on the spot. Corpses were scattered with blood splatter everywhere. Gabriel was just silent because he was surprised by the incident and then he suddenly became short of breath when he looked around.
"Ahhh,"
"Hey you? It's bad," said the person
"What happened? Why did they all die?” Gabriel asked in a low tone
"I do not know. Come on, you have to be taken to the hospital."
Gabriel, who was saved by the stranger, is now in a hospital. He was sitting on a hospital bed looking at a pocket watch. His sad look made him sad. The doctor came to him and then asked him some questions about his condition.
“Gabriel, what now? Is it still tight?” said the Doctor to Gabriel
"There is no."
"Does your head hurt?"
"Not really."
“Hmmm…… then you should just rest.”
"Yes."
"I'm sorry."
The doctor left him alone in the treatment room. Gabriel was still pensive as if experiencing deep sadness. In his hand, the pocket watch is then opened and shows the time 12 noon. The sound of melodies fills the quiet room. The rhythm that sounded filled with emotion made Gabriel temporarily experience hallucinations. however, he tries to stay conscious and begins to remember what happened earlier in an art gallery. He then closed the pocket watch again and miraculously in his memory he saw the figure of the girl and brought a camellia flower. Gabriel who felt shocked immediately dropped his pocket watch.
"What did I just see?" Gabriel muttered
Two hours earlier, at Antoni's residence to be exact. Gabriel was checking something in his pocket and it was an art exhibition flyer. Not long after, Leo saw it and just let it go. Antoni, who was busy with his work, didn't care. His gaze focused on the computer monitor. After Leo finished with his research on the ancient historical manuscripts in the documents he had gathered, Gabriel walked over to him and took a moment to look. However, he immediately went outside and planned to come to an art exhibition. The goal is not only to seek information, but to find a new atmosphere.
"Where are you going?" Leo said
"Looking for the wind. Why?"
“Are you going to an art exhibition?”
"Oh, shit. How did you know that?”
"You stupid. I see it. You have the brochure.”
“Oh, that's right. So what? After all, this won't affect the plan."
"I know. But, you still have to be careful.”
"Yeah-yes nagging."
After a small debate with Leo, Gabriel finally left Antoni's residence to head to the art exhibition. He had come before and of course there was something that made him curious. To get to his location, you only need to walk for a while, because coincidentally, the location is not far from Antoni's residence. Seeing the people who were also queuing there made Gabriel have to wait for a few minutes. And when it was his turn, he entered the art gallery.
“Welcome,” said a staffer
Gabriel ignored him and went inside. There, people were already filling the room with enthusiasm. Gabriel who also didn't want to lose came before a painting of a young woman. Previously he was also interested in the painting. And when he looked more closely, he seemed to have seen the person who modeled the painting. Gabriel's gaze was getting more and more focused there and sure enough. Suddenly a memory popped up in his head but it wasn't completely. Until finally the terrible incident happened there.
Gabriel, who was still in the hospital, was then visited by Leo. Antoni couldn't meet him because he had to go somewhere. When Leo entered Gabriel's room, his worried face was clearly visible. Gabriel who noticed Leo's arrival only let him in.
"What happened? You're okay right?" Leo asked Gabriel
"Yes. Nothing hurt me."
“What do you see there? What are they?”
"Not. I didn't see anyone suspicious. Only corpses and people brought me here.”
"Good grief. I told you not to act rashly!”
"You're blaming everything on me?"
"Not. Not like that."
"Then?"
"Just be honest. There's been something strange about you all this time. Did something happen?”
“That… is hard to explain.”
Currently Antoni is in a place that looks like an information center. There Antoni tries to find out about the whereabouts of the Abyss. The person who was now before him was none other than a professor of archeology in the city of Eldelius. The man had a simple appearance with gray hair. Although he looks like an old man who is 60 years old, it doesn't make it difficult for him to convey the information he knows. Antoni sat in front of him, the man continued to read the documents that Antoni brought with him with a pretty serious look and it made Antoni feel curious.
"How did you find all this?" said the old man as he placed his documents on the table.
“Of course from various old document forums. Does that have anything to do with all of this?”
"It's too early to ask such a question."
"What does it mean?"
"Instead you don't dig it too deep. This is beyond your expectation.”
"What else is it? I came here only to confirm whether this document is true or merely a literary work.”
“Hmm….. I see. It is just...."
"Just what?"
“Like I said before. This is beyond your expectation.”
"I do not care. One more time. does this have anything to do with all this professor?”
Antoni had left the place and now he was in the car thinking about what the old man had just said. Antoni took a deep breath before he drove his car. On the other hand, Gabriel and Leo who were in their hospital both looked serious. Gabriel held a pocket watch and told Leo everything that had happened to him. Leo who heard this could only be silent with a surprised face. All this time Leo didn't know anything about Gabriel. And now I know what made him that way. Silence enveloped the room and soon a nurse came to Gabriel's room.
"Excuse me, it's time to change the IV fluid," said the nurse
"Oh, yes."
Leo was still silent and tried to believe what Gabriel had just said. Just as Gabriel was about to fall asleep, Leo then said something to him.
"How can you be sure of that?"
"Who knows. I'm just following my instincts."
"If that's the case, it makes sense."
"What? don't tell you?"
"Currently Antoni is looking for the truth of the document. what the result will be I won't be surprised. I deserve to live."
"This is terrible."
“Hurry up and recover. We will go to that person.”
"Who?"
Leo didn't answer Gabriel's question and left the room Gabriel was being treated. His face turned serious in addition to holding back anger. The nurse who had previously taken care of Gabriel greeted Leo and left. Quite a confusing day, everything was out of control. The people who became victims of the incident at the art gallery made the whole city panic. Terror hit again. In a different place, someone was monitoring the city. In high places, its existence cannot be noticed. The smile on his face seemed to say a bad omen. crowds fill every corner of the city. The clock keeps ticking every second slowly getting faster and faster. Antoni has arrived somewhere. However, he must be faced with something.
