His Mischievous Time-Traveler: How To Capture A Celebrity Husband? - Chapter 149
“You are late.” Do Sejin looks at the watch. He’s been waiting for more than 20 minutes.
“Little Hae slept late.” Kyuri lies. “Is she asleep?”
“I gave her the sleeping pill like you told me.” Do Sejin doesn’t feel good about this. But Kyuri has texted him that giving sleeping pills to Ahn Hana is best. He has also dropped his children at his parents’ house.
He doesn’t know what’s he’s doing either. He’s afraid. He knows Hana the best. But he saw something today that was too disturbing for him to handle. He can’t risk his children’s life.
If things don’t go well, he will even try sending her to the mental hospital. But he knows deep in his heart. That will never be easy. Ahn Hana is too smart. She can easily prove it that she’s not mentally sick.
“Let’s go inside.” Do Sejin notices the change in Kang Si An’s voice. Even his gaze has changed. It’s something similar to what he saw when he confronted Ahn Hana. “Nobody should disturb Kyuri when she’s in the dream realm. I will also go with her. So, Kang Si An and you must keep a watch over her and Ahn Hana.”
The timekeeper? Do Sejin purses his lips. He still finds it hard to believe.
The Keeper and Kyuri follow Do Sejin into the house. Ahn Hana has locked herself inside the bedroom before she went to sleep.
“We can’t go inside.” Do Sejin eyes them warily. He has seen what she did to the tree. Letting her touch Ahn Hana is out of the question. “If you can exorcise him, do it from here.”
“I am not a priest.” Kyuri clicks her tongue.
“Don’t hurt…her.” Do Sejin wonders if he should just kick them out. Then, she can do it from anywhere. At least, he can watch them now.
“I will do my best.” She sits on the couch and takes a deep breath. Talk about pressure!!! She’s afraid of facing that Hong Yi Hwan more than facing Ahn Hana. She doesn’t know what to expect.
She looks at Do Sejin. “Um… does Hong Yi Hwan has a strong personality?”
“What do you think?” Do Sejin frowns at her. “He murdered more than 40 people.”
The Keeper holds her hand and says, “Don’t be afraid. Be confident.”
“I will be there,” He adds. He knows how much she hates going to the dream realm. It’s not unusual. The dream realm is full of peculiar things. That’s he will be with her. He will ward off those things.
Kyuri looks at the Keeper. His words are touching. She’s a little less afraid. Though he said that he won’t directly help her, having a special entity behind her back is better than nothing. She closes her eyes and finds the door in her mind. This time, it’s a bright blue door. She touches the golden knob.
She used her abilities to hurt people so far. This time, she will use it to save someone. She turns the knob and walks into the dream realm.
Do Sejin looks at the man and the woman. Both of them are unconscious. Didn’t the timekeeper say that Kang Si An would wake up? Why is he guarding three people alone?
***
The hell!
Two Kang Si An. One is dressed in a simple traditional white robe. His hair is also white. She has seen this person before Without a doubt, he’s the Keeper.
The second one is dressed in the same clothes that he wore when he left Kyuri’s house. He has black hair and a smirk on his face. That’s her Kang Si An.
Kang Si An: “Do you think that I would let you come here alone? I was prepared to follow him out.”
Timekeeper: “Tsk!”
Kyuri: “But Kang Si An… you might get hurt.”
Kang Si An: “I can’t let you come here alone. We will face it together.”
The timekeeper watches them argue. This is the first time when three of them are facing each other like this.
“I have a question though.” Kang Si An eyes the keeper. “Why do you look like me even in this realm?”
Kyuri realizes that Kang Si An is right. Why does the keeper look like Kang Si An? Are they soul twins?
“If you see my real form, your souls would burst apart,” The timekeeper tells them with a dull voice. “I have this appearance because you are my host right now. It keeps things simple.”
“This is…” Kang Si An feels awkward. “What’s your real name?”
“No, we are good.” Kyuri smiles at him. “Can you send this guy back?”
“Kyuri, I won’t go.” Kang Si An creases his forehead. “I can’t let you face a psychopath alone.”
“I don’t think that it’s a bad idea either.” The timekeeper looks at Ahn Hana’s room. The layout of the house is the same, but everything else is different. The walls are bleeding red. There are not their bodies or Do Sejin. Surrounding Ahn Hana’s room, there’s a repelling dark miasma on the door. Kyuri notices that the miasma is getting thicker by the minute.
“What’s that?” Kyuri takes a step back. Does she have to go near that?
“Their darkness.” The timekeeper sighs. “It’s worse than I thought. Then, they wouldn’t make it easy for you. I can’t follow you inside there. I can only guide you.”
Kang Si An holds Kyuri’s back. “I will go. You stay here.”
“What can you do even if you go there?” Timekeeper glares at him. “Even if you can walk out of the body and access the dream realm, you don’t have her abilities. Only she can separate them.”
“What happens after I separate them?” Kyuri asks the timekeeper.
A loud cry interrupts the timekeeper.
