REM 2 (Kagefumi Merry chapter)

REM 2 is the 2nd chapter of Kagefumi Merry.

Synopsis
In a flashback it is shown how Dream Demons Isaac and Torcher met Merry Nightmare.

Back in the present, Merry/Yuuki are on a train after leaving Isaac and his host. Merry explains to him that the former two were previously attacked by Wiles and were drawn to them because Yuuki also encounter a Wiles. Yuuki then inquires if Merry had a previous vessel.

Meanwhile in a battlefield Daydream, a male humanoid Dream Demon dodges a punch but bumped his head when staggering back. He tells the one attacking him that he'll give up going to the real world. The attacker reveals herself as Merry Nightmare. The Dream Demon curses his luck and tells Merry he is going back which surprises her. The Dream Demon then calls out a disposable cloaked minion and before Merry could reach him, he vanishes.

Back at the train as it reached their destination, Merry tells Yuuki that her other vessel is a long story so she'll pass on telling it frustrating him. At the stop, Merry shows Yuuki that there are many people being possessed by Wiles clones before fighting them in a Daydream.

Meanwhile, the real Wiles watches scenes of reality on a movie screen that are from his clones. He monologues in front of his captive audience, the consciousnesses of his clones' vessels. The a voice interrupts him and Wiles recognized him as Verbiest, the Dream Demon who escaped Merry, and asked if he enjoyed himself. Verbiest sarcastically said he did from getting beat up from a Nightmare girl which concerned Wiles.

Verbiest comments that both Wiles and the lighthouse guy are both eccentric before asking the former to get him another minion to transport him back to the Dream World. Wiles tries to convince him not to return but Verbiest insisted and Wiles relents and summons one. Verbiest then asked Wiles what reality is like but then sees something on the screen that disturbed him and pointed it out to Wiles.

Wiles sees that the smaller screens are disappearing one by one. Meanwhile Merry was killing off the Wiles clones and was down to the last one in the area. Back at Wiles's Daydream, with each defeated clone the consciousnesses of the vessels are freed and disappeared. Sensing his anger, Verbiest tried to excuses himself but Wiles "asked" him for a favor before going which he "agreed" since it was for a "friend".
