Suspicious
A few minutes of travel, Miryu had reached the edge of the cliff. Down there, there is indeed a river of blazing lava. It can be ascertained that if a human passing by on the river, it would immediately be roasted, exhausted.
This place was the same as the one Miryu read in the palace library back then, a book about places in this Underworld. In the palace library, there are various kinds of books of knowledge and books of magic. Miryu often secretly goes to the Underworld just to go to the library. Of course without the knowledge of Ryujin, his father.
Miryu looked at the snowy field across from the lava river.
"Is that the territory of the Gusoyn Clan, Uncle?" asked Miryu. He pointed forward.
Uncle Crow nodded in approval.
"Now you know, don't you, Master Mir? Now, let's just go back! I'm afraid Master Ryujin will find out."

(Joon_POV)
The ceiling of this palace seemed to be made of thin ice screens, letting the reddish moonlight penetrate the palace. And this whole palace seemed to float among the white lights of the snowy ground.
I told you I've never seen real snow before, didn't I? However, I have seen snowflakes many times in my dreams. And now, Miryu is also taking me to a familiar place, which I've seen in dreams lately.
Music is heard throughout the palace. I've seen this palace, in one of my dreams. But, that's when I saw it from the outside. I didn't think that this time I would actually enter it. Maybe I will also meet a strange man whose face is similar to mine at that time.
Right now I'm still following Miryu's footsteps, from behind. Previously, Miryu gave me a black robe to wear. Miryu said, this robe that makes other creatures will not realize, that I am only an ordinary human.
The palace maid's smile I could find along this dim corridor. I bowed too as they all bowed towards us. I don't know the purpose of Miryu bringing me to this place. And on what basis, he drew the spirit from my body. This time Miryu really looked suspicious.
