Just going to the city gate, a carriage was built on the side of the road, just waiting for her to be there to start the journey. But when she glanced at it, her nerves reacted fiercely, followed by a hair that shook her whole body. A drop of sweat rolled down her forehead, making Leo feel tickled, she bit her lip while walking while trying to avoid the driver's sight. -"Miss Leo, right? Please stop" A sudden call sounded, making Leo even more panicked. Her legs were still walking and her head turned to see what the driver was doing. Then a scene made Leo dumbfounded. The call was still even but closer, she slammed her face and turned her head, the faster she walked. However, when compared to a horse's foot, her speed is like a crawling ant. As she passed the Leo, the driver controlled the horse to stop, the whole carriage had now blocked the way, making her unable to continue. -"Where did Miss Leo go, did I set up the car, why didn't you get up and have to walk" His uncle steered with narrow eyes as if he was smiling, his mouth spoke continuously revealing a look of anxiety and surprise. -"N- No, I'll go home by myself, thank you for waiting" -"Wait, wait" Seeing Leo leaving, he called back. -"If you go like that, I know what to say to Mr. Capricorn" His uncle burst into tears, his moaning voice looked very pitiful, making Leo a little moved. But the thing she thought about just now made her feel afraid, this time she told her not to be alert, so she had to temporarily talk to help her to go. -"You just need to tell him that you have passed me home. So he just finished the work and had time to solve..." -"I can't deceive him like that. Please, Miss Leo, get in the car quickly. Even if you can walk, it will take all three days to get there, if you just get on the carriage I drive back, it will be faster" -"..." -"Go, let's go" -"..." -"Miss Leo, go" Leo for a moment did not know what to say after a few begging words from the driver. Looking at his sparkling eyes, she sighed. Part of it was also afraid that he kept begging for the rest of the session, she had to climb into the car and sit quietly as if she had temporarily passed this time. Seeing Leo's act of obeying, the uncle was excited again, happily controlling the horse to follow the road down the street of the kingdom. * The ice cart on the road has also been half a day, stopping for a long time to rest and eat a few times. However, because of the high speed from the horse plus the deserted terrain that is not rough, it will be easy and timely to get to the forbidden forest in the North until it gets dark. Leo leaned against the wooden wall of the car, next to it is a glassless window frame, so when a strong wind blows in, it will feel very cool. She turned her gaze through the window, watching the scenery all the way, and in her free time glanced at the strange companion sitting opposite her. The mysterious soldier with his shiny iron armor as a uniform, both with a mask on his head and a very discreet face. Since then, that guy has only sat in one place, his head collapsed and looked like he was sleeping, probably anesthetized by Scorpio before getting in the car. She really wanted to know whose face would be behind that iron mask. If she was an acquaintance, she wouldn't think of it, even Taurus was listed because the other person had a lot of height difference with him, something like this person looked smaller than him and her. So if it's an outsider she's never met, then you have to explain why that stranger came to save her. Is a plan? But if so, why is this person here. Leo immersed himself in thoughts without knowing that it was night, also when the carriage stopped in front of a small path towards the northern forbidden forest. -"We're here, Miss Leo" His uncle turned his head back and happily said loudly. Fortunately, it also made her wake up thanks to that voice. -"Yes" Leo slowly jumped out of the car. As soon as she landed, she turned her head and looked inside. The soldier was still in a deep sleep, perhaps because Scorpio's anesthesia was so strong that he slept from morning until late at night. Leo was careless and didn't know if he should carry him down with him. -"And the soldier is with you. You take him down too" His uncle turned to look at her bewilderedly. Leo was a little confused, and finally reluctantly helped the soldier on his shoulder and pulled it to the side of the road. -"Goodbye Miss Leo, see you next time" The uncle turned the car and left, not forgetting to shout and wave goodbye. Leo stood still like a statue looking at him gradually disappearing, but his whole body felt heavy. Looking to the shoulder, this boy used it to make a good sleep pillow. Leo sighed, finally carrying his arms on his shoulders and going on his way. Although this person looks so small, he is so heavy with terror, it's also because of the armor he's wearing. Thinking so, she paused to remove all the armor on his legs and arms but continued to go. However, both her legs and arms trembled more and more because of carrying heavy things, she staggered with the strange soldier and walked deep into the forest. The gasping sound grew louder and louder, the sweat on her forehead was also as long as a waterfall. Seeing that he was still tired, Leo tried his best to carry him on his back. After a long journey, seeing that the destination was still quite far away, she decided to sit and wait for the soldier to wake up, just to rest for herself. Sitting in the shadow of an old tree, Leo naturally felt extremely sleepy with his eyes closed. While she was still keeping a little alert, she thought of Aries' accidental words and then fell asleep. ... In the dark night covered with many layers of dense fog, I don't know whether it's dream or real. Leo just opened her eyes and frowned uncomfortably, she reached out her hand to brush off the mist away from her eyesight, and occasionally turned down to find that her feet were submerged in a puddle as high as her ankles. This place makes Leo feel familiar, it seems that she has passed by. As she advanced and brushed off, for a moment she stood in front of a scene full of solitary remnants. The broken water tank was full of water right in front of him, Leo stood and buried his feet with lethargic eyes just staring at it. This is a dream, but why is it so real. The sound of water falling, or every painful touch on the body, is all very honest. Leo took a few steps closer unconsciously, until he touched the foot of the tub to stop. It seems that she remembered that she had met a mysterious woman who brought her here. Tilting around the four directions, the woman's whereabouts are still unknown. Leo, who felt curious, was even more curious when she discovered a luminescent thing that was placed on the other side of the tub. It was that light again, the light that had covered the other woman. Without thinking, she walked step by step to the other side of the tub. Under the bright aura, Leo still did not realize what it was. Pressing her stomach to pick it up to see, which girl or when she was about to touch it, her voice was both high and quiet, her ears exclaimed right behind her back. "Don't touch" Leo turned around in surprise, no matter how fast she was, she couldn't catch that woman. She shouted bewilderedly, in response to just her own echo. "Who are you?" What is your purpose, please answer me" "..." "Why are you here?" Is this a dream or not? What is everything in front of me, where is this?" "..." "What should I do, you'll answer me" "..." The Lion screamed in vain, both hands tightened into fists that couldn't help but tremble. She frowned while shouting and looking around, hoping the woman would appear. But the next was just a quiet and creepy space, making her think that her own eardrum no longer exists. She remained still, waiting for a response in nowhere. "Lion" Finally, after a long wait in vain, the woman's voice also sounded. Leo was surprised and a little happy, so he wanted to turn around, as if he didn't want the woman to have a chance to escape. But the woman was a step faster, she went directly to gently hugging Leo from behind. Receiving a hug full of surprises, Leo is like a petrification that cannot continue to move his body. The scent of flowers and the aura on the woman surrounded by water took Leo, she didn't understand why it was so familiar.
"Look for me where you feel familiar, where we found each other" "Huh?" Leo's eyes were puzzled, his hand unconsciously raised and grabbed one of the woman's arms. "What do you mean?" Where we know each other... is where" "Find me, I'll answer you... and now, wake up, Leo" "Wait, wait for me a wa..." The woman's arms that are just loose are also when the intense light shines to brighten her eyes. Leo reflexively raised his hand to cover his eyes. Unexpectedly, everything went smoothly as it had been arranged, a quiet space followed immediately afterwards. One second, two seconds, three seconds, then four seconds, Leo slowly lowered his thin arm from his face. She was listless for a while, not thinking about everything that had happened to herself. "A dream, just a dream... right?" Leo wondered as well as tried to reconsider the very question he had asked. For some reason, everything about that dream became vague and unpredictable. It gradually disappeared from her head until she completely forgot, only the remnants of the mysterious woman remained in her long-term memory. Bewildered, worried, she finally realized the sudden absence when she accidentally turned to the side. Where is he. Leo did not stop suddenly trying to forge her body to get up, one hand she reached to the sides of her temples to massage. "He's awake" The person is still staggering, the Leo rests his hand against the trunk of the old tree. She glanced at the place where the soldier was now just empty space. "Where can he go?" "Shut, why does your head hurt like a hammer..." The pains kept coming continuously, making Leo unable to move on. She stomped her feet on the spot, her mouth still lamenting, even though it was not over, from deep in the forest, a loud cry rushed straight into her ear, causing Leo to stand in the picture. "Owl?" It's long and echoing the whole forest. The Lion stood in poverty, looking forward to the distance waiting for the loud cry to end. Although she is quite curious about the appearance of owls in this forest - because she has not seen or heard of -, but the first priority is still to find people. Leo forced herself to enter the forest according to her memory, there was a time when she used to visit this forest with the gray wolf. The terrain is rough with many trees, the concave holes are difficult to recognize, always murky and poorly lit, plus this place is large and cannot be discovered. Leo only knows a few places, the rest are blind. So on the way, to ensure her safety from the trap holes, she found under the ground of an old tree a long wooden branch convenient for tracing the way. The rest is to find that monster soldier. Went quite far from the old rest. Leo still tries to find him even though he doesn't know where he went. Whether he fell into a hole, or accidentally encountered dangerous entities. Thinking that bad things would happen made Leo even more worried, she went while exhorting that he would soon appear in peace. But it seemed that through her persistent calls, he still didn't speak up as if he was no longer in the forest. Even so, she still thought that she should not leave him alone. Just like that, Leo's voice spread from place to place, even the traps that she didn't dare to ignore. Leo has overcome many obstacles, a long way to make her tired and finally has no positive results. At this time, when she was still resting, the sound of the owls and cats came from once again resounded. This time it no longer interrupted but cried out fiercely. Leo was stunned and a little confused, she didn't know what to do next, even the terrible cries of the cat's owl brought. Leo wants to go crazy, unconsciously raising his hand to close his ears from noisy things. Regardless of doing all kinds of things, the sound seems to penetrate through the hand and transmits to the eardrum. Leo fell to the ground, his eyes closed and tried to look around the oysters to find the area where the owl was staying. But before Leo could find out the owner of that shrill sound, something even more dangerous was lurking waiting for the opportunity to rush to capture her. Leo felt his back gradually cold, as if she could feel the killer's eyes right behind her. A motivation to motivate Leo to run away. At the majestic howl of the owl, she stood up with her knees, trying to rush her head forward. That thing after realizing that his prey had begun to run away, it let out a breath full of danger, bright red eyes appeared to lock a target. It rushed out of the darkness, revealing a huge monster with three heads of tigers, lions and wolves. The body is like a gorilla but is larger, making it easy to move in a tree-filled terrain. Leo ran for his life without knowing life and death, she tried to look back when she discovered that strange thing had chased him right behind her. The whole person trembled because of that, she no longer had the strength to play catch-up with that thing. She is done. A small human being who can't fight his running power, Leo still can't give up, but she doesn't stop thinking about the worst situations that will happen to herself. How desperate and scared she was, she took it as a solution to extend the time to put this monster in the trap. As expected, it was hit by a trick and fell into the hole before it could catch the piece of her outerwear. Leo breathed continuously, sweat on his forehead soaked his hair. Before the scene where the monster had collapsed, the Lion disintegrated and leaned against the oak tree next to him. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry when she was close to death. Perhaps in the future, if she still has not completed her task, she will face such dangerous things again. Vigilance urges Leo to act. She didn't think much and quickly left that barbaric place. After a while after she left, the sound coming from the cat's owl once again came. Leo was no longer standing still waiting to die, she walked while trying to hear its sound coming from which direction. Because she wanted to find that mysterious owl. The serious face was a little worried, Leo walked while thinking about possible abnormal cases. And one thing that can prove that anomaly is that the closer she wants to get to that sound, the more she feels far away from it. This gives her one more clue that the numb head for all is most likely it, the owl. Leo runs tirelessly, the goal is now wooden house and Taurus. Does he have any way to end these hellish things. His feet trampled on the branches and leaves, the Lions looked sideways and finally saw the wooden house in front of him. She rushed into the door and ran in, her mouth screaming repeatedly calling his name.
"Taurus, where are you" ...
"Taurus, can you come out quickly"
Leo couldn't breathe, she waited forever without seeing a single response. Helplessly she rushed to each test room, but in the end it was still just a disappointed effort. The exhausted Leo sat down on the chair, her body was tired and gradually wanted to lose consciousness. Firmly grasping her hand into a punch, every time she patted her head non-stop. "Don't sleep, now is not the time" It was just as she was recovering from her own drowsiness, a huge murmur from afar landed close to this house. Leo heard that he immediately understood that the monster had escaped from the trap and sniffed here to find her. Unable to escape, she was cornered. Everything kept rushing to make Leo breathe, it successfully swept all the life force in her soul. Leo can't let herself sit still waiting for death to come, because she herself will confront it. Grabbing the sharpest iron in the kitchen, she quickly moved outside with her body about to exhaust. Looking at the greatness and agility of the other creature, the aggressive instinct in the Leo began to awaken. She didn't think she could destroy it, or that she could die here. Stopping it was the only way she could think of. Rushing to the monster in front of the monster, Leo stabbed one of his eyes with force. The injured monster roared in pain. Leo still did not stop but continued to attack the monster's back and heels, causing it to fall to the ground. He still couldn't adapt and was injured all over his body by Leo, this time he became angry. When she revealed the loophole, it grabbed her ankle and threw it hard on the ground. Leo roared in pain, she tried to hit the monster's hand with sharp blows. "Die, die, die..." Only with the wounds to the hand, it is more grounded to kill Leo. Once again lifted the Leo into the air so that she could no longer hurt it. It threw her like an ax, her back was able to land directly on the rough trunk full of pointed branches. Many beats continuously made her vomit blood. Leo cannot suppress the pain nor prevent himself from being unconscious. Her eyes were lethargic and could no longer be seen clearly, and was once again lifted into the air by the big monster. She couldn't resist in pain, she could only watch it gradually swallow her. "Hey, wake up quickly... wake up from that dream... All, just hallucinations... hear me say no, hey..." Leo didn't know why that voice came to his head. But it's very fanciful, making Leo feel his back. Her voice trembled, she still whispered. "Who is that" The other person tried his best to say, Leo is no less. The two replied that only Leo could hear, which made her feel very strange. Following that voice, a light appeared to cover Leo's body. Around her now is just a white. She painfully dragged her now disabled body to a wide open door, then gradually sank in a dazzling aura. ... -"Wake up yet?" The sun is hidden behind the dense forest, returning to the night the gloomy and gloomy atmosphere like many days. A little girl with a witch-like hat, wearing a striking black and white Lolita dress. Although it is no different from a pure and playful lady, it still cannot erase the strangeness of the little girl's face. The girl sat next to Leo, because of her curious machine, she looked close to Leo who was still sleeping. Stupid face looks childish, innocent and carefree. The girl grabbed Leo's hand to watch the blood vessels, then brought her ears close to her chest. -"It's okay, this method must work" The voice was excited to know that the heart was beating. The girl pressed her lips next to Leo's ear, but tried to push her voice and shout loudly. -"It's morning and let's wake up" At this time, one of Leo's fingers moved slightly, and his eyebrows furrowed to touch each other. Perhaps because it is so noisy that Leo's face while in a dream looks very unsightly. She slowly opened her eyes and took a look after all these hours of dreaming. But the peace has not passed, Leo suddenly startled and quickly jumped up and rushed away after seeing the appearance of a strange girl in front of him. -"How do you feel" -"Who are you? Why approach me" -"You've calmed down..." -"What's your purpose?" -"Well... I'm fine ha" -"Who are you?" -"..." The little girl's voice was stiff, now she doesn't know how to answer to Leo's eagerness. Looking at the way Leo was wary of strangers like her, she laughed unless she had to raise her hand to surrender. -"Okay, okay. Actually, you can call me a benefactor who saved your life. But partly because of me, you fell into such a situation" The little girl's voice was calm but her mouth was still smiling. -"What's wrong with me?" Leo asked again in confusion. -"What can I say?" The girl stroked her chin thinking. After a while of being serious, he nodded, but calmly stood up. -"I wonder if you remember the dream you just experienced?" -"Dream?" -"Yes, the pain you experienced in your dream" -"Dre-, what's the dream?" -"You try to remember" The little girl yelled. Because of the girl's impatience, Leo also began to recall the past. As real as a dream, dreaming like reality turned upside down without order, indeed she experienced a painful death. -"Why... why do you know" The little girl suddenly laughed. -"Let me show you this" -"Huh?" -"Roise, don't play anymore, come down here" Before waiting for Leo's insecure look to appear on his face, a owl from nowhere from nowhere flapped his wings and gently fell on the little girl's shoulder. To open the introduction, it raised the characteristic voice of the cat's species. Leo was immediately motionless, she glared after feeling that familiar melody. -"It's not..." -"Surprise, isn't it?" -"So... what is it, after all, who are you" Leo couldn't be patient, she braised her neck and shouted angrily. -"Well, having talked for so long, I forgot to introduce myself to you. My name is Sagittarius, and this is Roise, my companion. If you want to know who you're facing, we, both, are all demons"
