The Prince Charming System

(Season 2) tree dimensions

Taps! Taps! Taps!

the atmosphere was so silent that only the sound of footsteps filled the room. While all residents choose to sleep coiled comfortably in a blanket different from Ezra who still roam around the dormitory. After the incident with Victor he could not sleep because the words of Justin's twin were still jutting in his mind.

As a result Ezra chose to leave the room for fresh air, he decided to go to Rooftop. But just climbing the stairs he faintly heard the voices of some people from above.

Ezra's reflexes slowed his footsteps to avoid making too loud a sound. The closer he is to the source of the sound, the clearer the sound is.

Faintly from far away his netra caught the figure of two shadows sitting on Rooftop, I don't know what they were doing.

"What are they both doing? The clock is still not sleeping" thought Ezra noticed the two shadowy figures from far away, He decided to hear the conversation of the two figures.

On the other hand, it turns out that the two figures sitting in the Rooftop are Ian and Chloe, They both look to be relaxing while sipping hot chocolate while staring at the stars of a bright shining night.

Suddenly Chloe pointed to one of the biggest stars and shone more than any other star. He exclaimed with pleasure. "Look at that star!"

"What happened to that star?" Ian stared at the star Chloe pointed to as he sipped his hot chocolate.

"see the line of the most massive star, If it is connected it will form a fish,"

"I know, I've seen him since. It's an old game, you still like this game,"

"Of course I like it, when I look at the stars I remember my sisters in the real world. They like to play charades with stars," Chloe smiled wryly, Remembering her sisters. "How are they all doing now?"

"You still have parents. So I'm sure they'll be fine. Not like me who already has no one else," Reply Ian cuek as if saying it without burden.

Chloe was silent for a moment to remember her dream, Compared to her life Ian suffered much more. The young man in red has lost his family in the real world and now in this world he also lost his family. Ian Maxwell and Ian Salvatore both have the same pain and fate.

"I heard from the Holy One, He deliberately drew your soul in the real world here in order to accompany me in this world," explained Chloe by grabbing the blanket he was wearing.

"If that's true, I'm grateful to be able to see you again and not be alone in the real world" Ian looked down for a moment. "Btw who's Holy?"

"She's my system in this world, but it turns out she's the real Chloe Amberly. And right now he's asking me to find his real family,"

"Why didn't he look for it himself?"

"He can't say he's dead in this world and his soul can't get out of that place, so he says now he can only help me from there. The rest I try to do alone,"

"His body is stuck there?"

"You could say that, he only gave me some strength so I could use it later if I was desperate,"

"That's the reason why he drew your soul into this world, just to find his family?" Ian furrowed his brows feeling somewhat shocked yet invisible in his flat expression.

"True, I still haven't found her family. I don't know when this is all over" Chloe let out a small sigh, Back to sipping her hot chocolate.

"I understand now the reason for your existence here, Justin must know your purpose so he invited you to be a member of this dorm. I'm right, aren't I?"

"Yes right, but I'm surprised to know where he is when I'm looking for the Holy Family?"

"That's easy for him, just looking for information about you, then he'll get what he wants. It's as easy as flicking a finger,"

"Uh...Somehow it sounded like a stalker, "Chloe grumbled quietly.

Ian just kept quiet no more, he was busy looking at the stars above them. For a moment the atmosphere became silent only the sounds of night animals accompanied by the roar of a gentle wind.

"Chloe Watson," Hearing her full name being called made Chloe reflexively look at Ian who was still staring at the stars.

"Yes?"

"I feel like I want to get out of this world right away,"

"You're starting to not feel at home, Ian?"

"Maybe, I miss our original world. I want us to get out of here together and hope that everything we've been through here is just a dream" Ian slowly clasped Chloe's hand beside him.

Chloe simply smiled blandly at Ian's expectation, Her cold hand slowly warmed up as Ian grasped it.

"You might get out of here but unfortunately I can't because my mission isn't done yet,"

"Don't I tell you we're going out together from this place, which means I'm gonna help you until your mission is over,"

"You're not leaving me, are you?"

"No! It will never! I will not leave the woman I love" Ian exclaimed firmly, Her red Netra staring deep at Chloe's blue netra.

For a moment the girl felt her cheeks faintly blush as Ian's gaze fell on her. It was then that Chloe realized Ian was so sincere in love with her and patiently waiting for her.

Chloe clasped Ian's hand back, smiling cheerfully. "Later after we get back to the real world, I promise I'll give my answer back to how you feel, Ian,"

"You're serious?! Promise?" Ian shows his little finger asking for a promise bond from Chloe.

"Yes, I promise," Chloe was still smiling, hooking up her little finger with Ian's little finger. Binding promises is just like when they were little.

Before long Chloe put her hand away and put her hand on Ian's cheek made the red-faced young man slightly flinch.

"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

"No, it's just that your cheeks are getting cold" Chloe put her hands away. "You didn't bring a blanket anyway,"

"It's cold, I'm lazy to bring a blanket anyway" replied Ian indifferently.

"Huh! Basic," grumbled Chloe quietly as she picked up something beside her. He opened a small box and took it. There is a gray scarf with the symbol 'i.S' at the end.

Chloe put the scarf on Ian's neck without warning, while Ian just silently watched Chloe's face from close range. After putting on the scarf, Chloe smiled with satisfaction.

"It's a good fit, don't feel cold anymore, right?"

"Hm, did you do it yourself?" Ian noticed the grey scarf he was wearing, admitting he felt comfortable and warm as he put on the scarf as if Chloe continued to be nearby.

"I love this scarf," Ian thought with a faint smile.

"Yes, I tried to make my own scarf and you were the first to wear it Ian. I learned to knit self-taught, so there might still be some loose threads,"

"No problem, it's also comfortable to wear. Thank you,"

"Thank God you look like Ian's scarf. Equally," Chloe replied with a cheerful smile.

Ezra who had since noticed and listened to Ian and Chloe's chatter was just silent, her green Netra momentarily stared flat. Without saying a word Ezra stepped away leaving the Rooftop area.

Returning to Chloe's side, the girl stared at her watch clock which showed at 10pm a moment ago and looked back at Ian.

"Good night,"

The girl immediately climbed out of her place while hugging her blanket to the room.

****************

Taps! Taps! Taps!

"Oh, Mr. Ezra. What are you doing here?" Just as she was coming down the stairs a few steps, Chloe was startled by the figure of Ezra leaning against the wall as if the young man was waiting for something.

Ezra's gaze turned to look at Chloe after hearing her name called, No Expression on her face. Ezra straightened his body to face the girl.

"I didn't overhear all your chatter with Ian. I heard you two are not actually from this world. And the reason you're here is to find Chloe Amberly's real family,"

"If you meet the real Chloe Amberly," Ezra looked coldly at the girl in front of him, His gaze so solemn. "Then who are you, if you're not from this world?!"

Chloe flinched unexpectedly Ezra apparently heard his chatter with Ian, As soon as his mouth was locked tightly and he unconsciously hugged the blanket tightly so he was a bit nervous.

For a moment Chloe looked down small avoiding Ezra's gaze. "What if I told you the truth, Mr. Ezra would believe me? Hasn't Mr. Ezra never met me before,"

Ezra breathed out softly, and without warning, he grabbed Chloe's hand somewhere.

"We'll prove it if you're really not of this world,"

"Eh? Ki-Where are we going?" Chloe was surprised by Ezra's sudden act of pulling his hand, Reflexes he followed in the footsteps of the black-blasted young man.

But Ezra did not answer that he was silent all the way, as well as Chloe who did not get an answer from Ezra.

Chloe broke the silence again after they were only a few minutes silent, she exclaimed softly. "My real name is Chloe Watson, if you want to know,"

"....."

There was no response from Ezra that he thought was just immediately wanting to get to his destination. The sound of their footsteps echoed throughout the journey.

Until finally they stopped right in front of a door, Ezra opened the door a little tight and approached the owner of the room who was getting ready to sleep.

"Aiden, can you take us to the tree?" Ezra asked to the point, Noticing Aiden who was setting up the morning alarm.

Aiden's activity halted for a moment when his purple netra glanced at Chloe right next to Ezra, then looked back at the young man.

"For what?" Cold reply.

"It's very important, and I want to prove it now,"

"It's late, you can't go out. Go back to your rooms!" Aiden looked seriously but Ezra also did not give up on his intentions.

"I need Aiden's proof,"

"What do you really want to prove?"

Ezra's gaze turned to look at Chloe who looked nervous, He released his hand.

"I want to prove if this girl and Ian aren't from this world. I won't give up until I know the truth,"

His eyebrows furrowed unhappily Aiden looked at Chloe sharply with her dark purple netra, making the girl even more nervous and tightening her arms at the blanket she was carrying.

"Sorry," Chloe's great-granddaughter quietly regardless of Aiden or Ezra.

Aiden gave a small snort and then he put his palm on the wall to open a black portal without foundation on the wall.

"Come in, I'm lazy to use teleportation. So we'll be quick to use this portal. And Chloe.;" Aiden glanced slowly at the girl behind him. "Put the blanket there, you'll have trouble walking later if you keep the blanket,"

"Well," Chloe immediately put down the blanket as ordered by Aiden and he immediately followed Ezra who had entered first followed by Aiden until the portal closed by itself.

**************

The towering trees covered the night sky, The cold air accompanied by the gusts of night wind added to the sinister impression of the forest.

Their footsteps continued to tread the path accompanied by the light from the flashlight they brought, The sounds of night animals accompanied their journey.

Cracks!

Chloe ignored the sound of a twig being accidentally stepped on by her, her gaze continued to focus on following Aiden's steps in front of her as a guide. A few times Chloe pointed her flashlight in all directions just in case.

Until the blue netra of the sea glanced at Ezra who was not far behind him, he slowed his steps to align with Ezra. Then looking back at the young man, I wondered why Ezra insisted on going to the tree.

Feeling uncomfortable continues to be noticed Ezra glances sharply while saying softly. "What wiry?!"

Suddenly the girl shifted her gaze while shaking her head slowly. "It's nothing, it's just that I've admitted that I'm not from this world and have told my real name as well. But why do you insist on staying in that tree?"

"As far as you know, I'm not a believer before I see him directly with my own eyes,"

"Hah~, I expected it. Not as long as I can keep this secret, sooner or later some of you will know it," Chloe exhaled a small breath, resigned to her fate later.

"I'm more curious how you can meet Mr. Justin and end up here" Aiden replied without turning his head which turned out to be him listening to Chloe and Ezra's chat.

"Over the story, for sure our meeting wasn't a good meeting. It took a lot of effort until I got to this point. At least before I met Mr. Justin I continued to be accompanied by Holy,"

"I believe that your struggle will not be in vain later," replied Aiden who was only listened to by Chloe and Ezra.

After a fairly exhausting journey they arrived at a fairly large tree with so dense foliage. Some fireflies circling the tree add beauty to it.

A tired Chloe sat herself down under a tree to rest her tired legs, while Ezra sat down on the grass.

And Aiden, the man with the blackish-purple skeleton plucked some petals and thrust them in front of Ezra and Chloe.

"Lay it in your hands, the flower will have its after-effect,"

"I feel like I've been taking sleeping pills after holding this flower" grumbled Chloe as she placed the flower petals in her hand.

"That's different again, this flower will give the effect of sleep while inserting our soul into the dimensions we want. While the sleeping pills only had a sleeping effect, that's all you don't know" Ezra snorted sarcastically as she put the flower petals in her hands.

"I don't know" Chloe pouted a little Ezra's explanation.

Aiden chose silence not to interfere with the conversation, He put the flower petals in his hand until soon a small wind gust appeared suddenly making the three of them who felt the wind gust feel sleepy and finally fall asleep entering the dimensional realm.
