The garden slowly fell silent again.
The night wind moved gently through the black and purple lilies.
Eisteth was still standing in front of the broken system window.
In the air—
Red cracks continued to pulse.
[WARNING]
[SOUL RESONANCE DETECTED]
[ABNORMALITY MATCH FOUND]
Eisteth narrowed her eyes.
"This isn't a normal bug…"
She tapped the transparent screen.
The display flickered.
As if it was trying to show something.
But the data kept collapsing.
[ERROR]
[ERROR]
[ERROR]
Eisteth clicked her tongue in annoyance.
"If this is some kind of event…"
"At least give me the reward first."
She tapped the screen again.
Suddenly—
A shadow of a face appeared for a split second.
Hair.
Pink.
But the image shattered instantly like broken glass.
Eisteth froze.
"…Huh?"
She scratched her head.
"Why is my BL character appearing in my system?"
She shrugged.
"Such a weird bug."
Then she casually sat back down on the sofa.
Completely unaware—
That it wasn't a bug at all.
Somewhere Else — Human World
The hospital lights were dim.
A monitor beeped quietly.
1.21%
1.27%
1.35%
The number slowly increased.
Beside the hospital bed—
A man with pink hair stood silently.
His eyes looked tired.
But he never left.
On the bed—
A woman was sleeping.
Her body didn't move.
But her fingers twitched slightly.
The man held her hand.
His voice was soft.
"You look more stable today…"
He lowered his head.
"Eisteth…"
The name slipped out unconsciously.
But in this world—
The woman's name was Cecilia.
He closed his eyes.
Old memories surfaced.
Laughter.
A garden.
Flowers.
And someone who always smiled lazily.
He whispered softly.
"…I will wait for you."
The monitor beeped faster.
1.41%
Hell — Lower City
Meanwhile—
In a distant part of Hell, far from the palace.
A narrow alley.
Dim red lights.
A group wearing white robes walked silently.
They were Purifiers.
Followers of Amon.
One of them stopped.
"The resonance has begun."
Another replied.
"In the human world?"
He nodded.
"Yes."
Behind them—
Someone sat on a stone chair.
Laughing quietly.
Amon.
The former King of Hell.
"Ah… finally."
His eyes glowed coldly.
"The seed of sin is beginning to awaken."
He looked at the red crystal in his hand.
Inside the crystal—
A light pulsed slowly.
"Find him."
"That child."
One follower asked.
"The one with pink hair?"
Amon smiled.
"Yes."
"He is the key."
He laughed softly.
"If he awakens…"
His gaze turned toward Palace 666.
"Then war will be inevitable."
Memory Garden — Palace 666
Eisteth yawned.
She was still relaxing on the garden sofa.
Her tea was almost finished.
The system was still glitching.
[WARNING]
[SOUL RESONANCE DETECTED]
Eisteth stared lazily at the screen.
"If this is a bug…"
She muttered.
"I'll fix it tomorrow."
She stood up.
But as she walked past the stone monument in the garden—
Something happened.
The pink lily beside the monument—
Trembled.
For the first time in thousands of years—
One petal fell.
Eisteth stopped walking.
She turned her head.
"…Eh?"
She picked up the petal.
Strange.
It was warm.
As if it contained something.
But before she could think further—
The system suddenly screamed again.
[CRITICAL WARNING]
[SOUL RESONANCE INCREASING]
Eisteth frowned.
"Why does it feel…"
She held her chest.
"…weird?"
Far away in the human world—
The pink-haired man suddenly held his breath.
As if something was calling him.
Two worlds.
Two souls.
Beginning to reconnect.
And without them realizing—
In the shadows of Hell,War was slowly beginning to move.
