He arranges his blanket so that it is comfortable on his body and his window is closed with only the glass exposed for a good night's sleep in the moonlight.

Shin's eyes suddenly close, and he falls into a deep sleep where he would logically be at peace without anyone harming him after that incident.

But he was wrong.

After a few minutes asleep, he begins to have a dream in which he is standing in a white room.

The boy then became confused, because it wasn't normal for him to be in control of his dream… he walked as if he were walking normally in the real world.

He thinks about possibilities and choices as if he were in the real world, and among many other things, he can do while in the reality he is facing.

The only thing that makes it impossible for him at the moment is to wake up, as he has already entered a deep sleep where it doesn't matter what the sound or impact is.

However, he had to find out what was going on, and so he continued to walk around the white room in search of answers.

After a long walk, he began to feel his hair moving to the right… and he was surprised by this, as he couldn't feel a single wind in the room.

Shin began to reflect on this and thought of a rather clever possibility.

"If there's no breeze over the space, then my hair is like an arrow sign coming from the traffic." Shin reflected, and he followed the intuition he had been thinking about.

He began to use his hair as a GPS, following the route where the strands of his hair were pointing.

He continued to follow the path where it was being shown, only for a few seconds later…

His hair stayed in its normal shape and there was no wind whipping through his hair.

Shin looked around in front of him and saw folds on the ground.

Small shadows on the sides, suggesting that there was a wall in front of him and a boundary over the white room.

He began to take small steps toward the edge of the room and slowly raised his right hand to the white wall.

His fingers gradually touched the wall, from his index finger to the smallest finger on his hand.

Shin began to move his fingers slowly from top to bottom, and then… something opened up in front of him.

The boy was startled by this and quickly moved away to avoid anything dangerous and to get a better view of the situation.

"What the fuck is this?" Shin asks himself and he continues talking. "Is it safe to enter this place?" Shin concludes, frowning and feeling doubtful about that door.

The space where it opened, inside him, is a deep darkness where he can't tell where he would walk safely.

But without much to do, he just accepts it and continues past the door he accidentally opened.

His steps became heavy as he prepared himself for the danger that might come.

And so he could either strike with a kick or with his fists, since he was keeping his body prepared at all costs.

His breathing was deep, and he looked to the side even though he couldn't see anything around him.

His right fist closed with all his might, preparing for the worst, and after a few seconds of taking heavy steps across the black room… a small technological pentagon appeared in front of Shin.

He was suddenly startled by it, but then calmed down instantly, as he felt the object would not be dangerous.

Shin oversaw the object to see what it could do… but it just floated in front of him at chest height.

Without much doubt, he simply poked the center of that small pentagon with his index finger, and its inner polygon began to glow blue.

As much as the polygon is meant to show what all the geometric shapes are, in this world… polygons are souls for each shape.

Among these souls, there are visions of the future, hidden answers that the user would never be able to find out from someone close to them, and many other abilities that a polygon soul can perform.

These are rare technologies that no user can easily find or replicate in the real world.

Polygons are like divine artifacts created by an omnipotent and powerful being, which are only shown to the eyes of someone with their will.

But the Pentagon class is of a rare form that can only be seen or acquired at the moment to visualize the future of the user himself or the future of a person connected to him.

Shin reflected on that polygon, and a panel appeared above the Pentagon.

[Close Friends] Randomly observing a close friend's vision of the future that the user has requested in their polygon.

[Lineages and Families] Randomly observe the vision of the future of a past lineage or a family member of the user who requested their polygon.

 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - _ -

Shin saw that the Pentagon's system didn't have many choices or internal settings like his glasses did, so he didn't have much to do.

He felt calm and had no desire to see his future, but rather that of someone close to him.

He immediately thought about what his mother had said to him in the hospital and felt a certain question about it

Not of lies, but of concern.

"I would risk my life just to protect you, son." Said Emi, Shin's mother, in a kind, sweet voice that reassured her son in the hospital.
