He didn't exactly calculate the time, nor did he have day or night as a reference, but Law probably estimated that he had been in the Inner World for more than a week.
The Inner World was Law's name for this world full of gray mist.
Before taking this name, Law also thought of another name, the Dark World.
But between the two, Law finally chose the name Inner World.
During this time, Law explored aimlessly in the Inner World, even if he kept moving in one direction, he didn't encounter any obstacles or dead ends.
The place he was in seemed to be a vast and boundless flat land.
On the way to explore the unknown, it was inevitable that he would encounter shadow people and white cocoons that suddenly burst out.
And as long as there is a white cocoon, there will inevitably be shadow people coming.
Because Law's perception was more inclined to the white cocoon, as long as he encountered a white cocoon, Law would help it break free from the shackles of the shadow people and the ground.
Then, Law would watch the white cocoon bloom like a flower, blooming all kinds of strange things.
From beginning to end, Law only had a vague guess, but could not determine the nature of the white cocoon and the shadow people.
On the way to explore, Law always believed that there would be other different existences in the Inner World besides the white cocoon and the shadow people.
However, along the way, Law did not encounter other existences that he believed in, but met a person, Melody, that he had never thought of before.
If Law was surprised when he saw Melody, then Melody was surprised when she saw Law.
"Help me!"
After the surprise, Melody, who was entangled by the black line and couldn't move, decisively asked Law for help.
"Melody? Why are you here? And, what do you look like? "
Law asked while waving his sword to cut the black line on Melody's body.
With a few flashes of white light, the black line wrapped around Melody was cut off.
Melody, who regained her freedom, suddenly fell to the ground, her face haggard and pale.
Finally out of danger, her body was obviously relaxed a lot.
She struggled to look up and meet Law's searching eyes, for a while she didn't know where to start.
"Law … I played the flute version of Dark Sonata, and when I came back to my senses, I was already here."
"Flute version of Dark Sonata? I remember that the price of the player is death. "
Law couldn't help but frown. It was difficult to connect the Dark Sonata with the melody appearing here.
Melody tried hard to recall what had happened at that time. Her face slowly revealed a look of horror as she whispered, "I, I don't know what happened either. At that time, I played it with the determination to die …"
"You played the entire score?"
"Yes."
Melody nodded with lingering fear. Her voice trembled slightly as she said, "When I finished the first movement, my body began to turn black, just like, just like my friend …"
"Alright, take a rest first."
Law could see that Melody's mental state was very bad and interrupted Melody's narration.
Melody was startled for a moment before replying in a mosquito-like voice.
"White dog, bring out some food and water."
Law turned to look at the white dog. One of the reasons he could explore here was the food stored in the white dog's space.
Hearing this, the white dog took out dried meat and water from the space and directly handed it to the pale Melody.
Judging from Melody's cracked lips, it was most likely that she had not drunk water for some time.
"Thank you." Melody took the dried meat and water from the white dog and couldn't wait to drink the water.
She hadn't drunk water or eaten for many days. If Law had come half a day later, she would have died of thirst even if she hadn't been strangled to death by those black lines.
Law silently looked at Melody who was wolfing down the food and signaled Chirps to change back from the long sword to the bracelet. Then he picked up a piece of dried meat and slowly chewed it while thinking about the possible connection between the Dark Sonata and the Inner World.
As early as a few years ago, Law had destroyed all four scores of the Dark Sonata. However, when the white smoke font absorbed the Telekinesis of the score, Law also directly remembered the content of the score.
It can be said that he is the only Telekinesis user in the world who is familiar with the content of the four scores.
As for Melody, she is probably the only Telekinesis user who can play the flute version of the Dark Sonata.
Although the flute version of the Dark Sonata was taken from Melody, through the memory fragments and images fed back by the white smoke font, Law can say that he knows more about the flute version of the Dark Sonata than Melody.
"The effect of the flute version of the Dark Sonata is not equivalent exchange. The performer will be burned to death, and the listener will lose something and then gain something else."
"No matter what the listener gets in the end, the performer must bear the pain of death, but Melody clearly played the entire score …"
Law's eyelids drooped, thinking silently.
The white dog sat quietly on the side, from time to time checking the surrounding movements, very well assuming the role of a guard.
After a while, Melody finished eating the dried meat and water, and then looked at Law who was looking down at the matter.
Aware of Melody's gaze, Law looked up, smiled at Melody, and asked, "Are you feeling better?"
"Yes, yes …"
Melody looked away embarrassedly.
Law looked at Melody and said, "If you don't mind, tell me in detail about the situation at the time."
Melody nodded gently. Perhaps Law gave her a sense of security. When she was drinking water and eating the dried meat, her heart had been settled and she no longer felt afraid and confused.
Then, Melody explained the reason why she played the Dark Sonata.
As a member of the Hunter Association, it was only natural that Melody joined the team to solve the disaster. She had formed a permanent team with a few other members of the association. Their team was responsible for the disaster, which was the largest number of monsters at the moment.
Like the vast majority of telekinesis ability users before, their team determined that the threat of the Dark Sonata to the telekinesis ability users was basically zero based on intelligence and what they saw with their own eyes.
Because of this, the root of the disaster was buried …
One day, the team's decision maker was too rash. In the process of collecting black stones, the team was surrounded by many Dark Sonata.
Originally, everyone in the team, including Melody, didn't think that the Dark Sonata around them would leave them there. After all, as long as they used [Train], they could directly force the Dark Sonata to retreat.
However, an accident happened.
They saw hundreds of Dark Sonata merged into the appearance of a little black man, and then, the power shown by the little black man made them despair.
In order to protect her teammates, Melody was forced to play the flute version of the Dark Sonata in a desperate situation, and then inexplicably came to the [Inner World]. She didn't even know whether her teammates survived or not.
"Another manifestation of Lust, huh …"
After listening to Melody's explanation, Law's eyes flashed.
Could it be that the Dark Sonata was the key to connecting the two worlds? And the power similar to the flute version of the Dark Sonata became an activation tool?
"By the way, you have been in the 'Inner World' for so long, have you seen anything other than the shadow man and the white cocoon?"
"Yes …"
