I hurried to change into the clothes Emily gave me, and left the room after checking one more time the things I was taking with me.

It was strangely quiet inside and outside the mansion, either because of Yvonne’s spell, or because it was not yet over.

I, wearing the magic bracelet that Derrick gave me, quickly and easily passed through the hole, and immediately caught the carriage.

“We’ve reached the upper street, sir.”

While I was nervously watching through the window if there were any people chasing me, the horseman announced our arrival.

I quickly rushed into the alley after paying. I had only been transported by the system to the top and it was my first time riding in a carriage here, so I felt strange.

Soon after, at the end of the road, an old door with a familiar rabbit pattern appeared. I rushed up the stairs and knocked on the door, hoping someone would come after me.

Thump thump thump-.

But with a hard knock, the door showed no sign of moving. ‘Is he working? Do I have to wait until he gets here?’

I was looking around the empty alley, and grabbed the door handle. If it was locked, I would go directly to the north after Verdandi.

Click, click-.

But the doorknob opened too easily. “What…”

I burst the door open without delay. And I ran into the rabbit mask in front of the door that was coming out of the wall.

“Ah, you…ugh!”

Perhaps because I was surprised, the wall suddenly began to close.

He was flustered with a strange figure half-wrapped in the wall. I was so impatient that I didn’t feel so funny. But I closed the top door and quickly approached him and whispered.

“Give me some money.” “…Yes?”

“I’m here to pick up some of my money I’ve left over here.” “What…please wait a moment, damn it.”

Vinter muttered, with a low curse.

After a while the door opened again and he finally escaped the grotesque position of being stuck in the wall.

“What are you talking about, young lady?”

He let out a sigh as he shake off his clothes covered with brick dust.

I was full of thoughts about money and plans to leave the capital, so I bit my lower lip and uttered it. “All you have to do is give me my money.”

“Please sit down for now. We can sit down and talk.” “No, I don’t have time”

“Your hand.”

Vinter cut me off and pointed to my hand holding the doorknob. “You’re trembling like last time.”

My head went down slowly at his.

I could see the tips of my fingers, all white and trembling enough to be pitiful. ‘I’m so terrified.’

When I realized it, I noticed that my neck was damp with cold sweat. Fear rose again replacing the anger that died down.

“I’ll lock the door. Please have a seat.”

At Vinter’s words, which once again offered me a seat, I shifted my steps and walked towards the sofa. Vinter sitting opposite of me, waved a couple of times.

Chek, chek-.

Somewhere I heard the sound of a lock on the edge of the room and a series of refreshments flew in. I wasn’t surprised because it happened every time.
