Seokjin felt disgusted. He couldn't help but throw up as Jeonghan and Joshua held him. They were back in SVT's dorms. Seokjin, Joshua and Jeonghan were in the bathroom since Seokjin felt sick

"How did- why did she do this?"

Minghao whispered to himself as he tried to calm Wonwoo down. Mingyu, Junhui, Taehyung, Yoongi, Wooyoung, Yunho and Minho were asked to investigate what they had seen in the spells and potions lab

"We need to do something. We can't just stay here and do nothing."

Soonyoung spoke as he looked at his friends present in their dorm room

"But we aren't allowed to leave the damn room."

Jungkook grunted as they all sighed deeply. The door swung open to reveal Bang Chan and a sleeping Seungmin in his arms

"How is he doing?"

Jisung asked as Seungmin had passed out and was in Mingi's arms when they had reached there

"He is a bit pale, but he is better than before."

Bang Chan replied as his heart clenched in pain seeing Seungmin in this condition

"Lay him down here, hyung."

Samuel stated as he got up from his bed while Bang Chan walked towards the bed and laid him down there with a sad smile

"Did anyone decode what was written in the ceiling?"

Vernon asked as Minghao smiled slightly and sighed deeply

"I am sure Moon probably did decode what was written in the wall. Deji jiejie probably did too. So did I."

Minghao whispered as, how could they not? The words written in the ceiling were written in Mandarin, so as soon as they had seen the message, they knew what was written but just kept silent

"What did it say?"

Hongjoong asked as everyone's eyes were now on Minghao and Deji. Deji gave the opportunity for Minghao to speak so he had no choice but to speak

"That is for Moon to say to you all. But at the moment, we need to focus on making sure that nothing comes up till the annual moon festival is over."

Minghao stated as he knew that it was best to wait till Junhui came and told everyone the whole piece of it, not only what they had seen

"But why can't you say it to us oppa?"

Hana asked as Minghao smiled a bit before answering her question

"I want you all to get the whole of it, not just the piece of it."

Minghao stated as he poured a cup of herbal tea for Wonwoo, letting him take a sip to calm him down. He really needed to calm his storm down so that he will be able to prepare for what's ahead of them. Seokjin, Jeonghan and Joshua walked out of the bathroom, making their heads snap towards them

"Are you okay hyung?"

Jimin asked, worried about Seokjin, who was barely able to stand, as Joshua sighed deeply

"Does a pale face and a limp body being supported by two people seem okay to you?"

Jeonghan deadpanned as Joshua flicked his forehead to shut him up. Jimin was already used to Jeonghan's remarks and helped the two of them lay Seokjin down on Jeonghan's bed. After a while, Taehyung walked in with Mingyu, both looking tensed

"Where are the others? Is everything okay?"

Jeongin asked worriedly to the oldest in his group. Taehyung sighed deeply and shook his head gently

"Everything is wrong Innie. Everything."

Taehyung stated while looking at Mingyu, who cleared his throat to speak but Junhui entered with a tired smile and spoke before Mingyu did

"Life is a dream for the wise, a game for the fool, a comedy for the rich and a tragedy for the poor."

Junhui stated as they were all confused while Deji and Minghao smiled sadly and looked at each other with a knowing look

"That's what was written in the ceiling..."

Seokjin trailed off as he knew who wrote this. He knew it too well that it made him sick to the core

"What?-"

Samuel froze in shock. He had heard this quote somewhere but he couldn't pinpoint where. The rest of the swordsmen, along with the other three leaders, walked in, leaving the room in a heavy silence

"Guys?"

Namjoon asked while peeking his head in the room and saw Seokjin looking pale so he immediately rushed to him

"Are you okay handsome?"

Namjoon asked worriedly as Seokjin's ears turned red but nodded weakly with a small smile

"What's up?"

Bang Chan asked as Hongjoong sighed deeply before looking at Mingi, who was already looking at him with a curious face

"Areum is fine for the time being. And we found out who did that to her."

Hongjoong announced as everyone was tensed. He gave a look to Hanjin, who immediately went to Samuel and back hugged him, surprising Samuel but he couldn't care about it at the moment

"It's the mother of the Kim siblings."

Seungcheol announced while looking at Samuel, who felt as if his life was snatched away right under his own eyes

"They tried to kill Wonwoo as well because he had seen them drag Areum to the spells and potions lab."

Namjoon stated further as Jungkook and Mingyu immediately went towards Wonwoo and hugged him tightly

"I am so sorry hyung. I-I shouldn't have left you outside."

Mingyu whispered as tears swelled up his eyes. Wonwoo could feel Mingyu's heartbeat rising so he tried to calm him and Jungkook as well

"It's okay Min. I am fine now. Nothing happened to me. See?"

Wonwoo whispered as Mingyu buried his head on Wonwoo's right shoulder to calm himself down. Jungkook just rested his head on Wonwoo's left shoulder to calm himself down

"M-Minnie hyung and H-Hannie hyung cannot know about this... p-please..."

Samuel whispered as Hanjin did his best to comfort him even if he knew that he won't calm down anytime soon. Bang Chan was rooted next to Seungmin, unable to move as he was overthinking so many possibilities of Seungmin and his siblings getting hurt. Minho noticed it and slapped Bang Chan's back to snap him back to reality. Bang Chan flinched and glared at Minho, who returned the glare back to him

"Stop overthinking. We will protect them. We will protect everyone including ourselves so don't be a boomer."

Minho stated sternly as Bang Chan's eyes widened. What Minho said was right. He smiled a bit and nodded at Minho thankfully before looking at Seungmin and caressing his hair gently. Jongho, who was silently listening and was next to Seungmin, spoke up to finish what the leaders had left hanging

"They might try to destroy everything before the moon festival because during this very full moon, all the super natural beings will become very powerful."
