218 Great Escape #1

It didnt seem like Aira was completely conscious, as she was muttering to herself. However, it wasnt a bad thing that Aira perceived the situation as a dream.

Is it not real? I had an inkling, but. So it was all a dream.

Yes.

More importantly, Theo, why did you come into my dream? I dont recall inviting you.

That, Aira-nim. What happened was.

As I began to explain, Aira placed her palm over my mouth.

I must have encountered some sort of issue, so you intervened in my mind with the help of the Draco twins. They, or Saintess Priga are the only ones who can break through my mental defenses.

.

That was amazing.

Even without my explanation, Aira diagnosed her own condition with precision.

Aira once said, I know my body best. It seemed like it was the truth, beyond mere queenly arrogance.

Still, it wouldnt have been easy to penetrate my deep subconscious. Impressive. Perhaps its thanks to that balloon?

Yes. Anyway, we need to get out of here.

I showed Aira the balloon wrapped around my wrist. Only one balloon left. Thankfully, the situation was going well before everything popped.

We can use this to escape to a higher place.

At Airas words, I reached out to embrace Lily, who was lying on the ground, and Airas waist. Aira nestled against me and softly chuckled.

Even though its a dream, its fortunate your arms are long. How did this happen?

This, well, its a dream. Things can be a bit exaggerated in here.

Yeah, in dreams, anything is possible, and you can meet anything and anyone. Anyway, lets get going.

Go where, my lady?

Ever imagined soaring into the sky on a balloon? Just like that.

Ah.

With Airas instruction, I leaped lightly into the air, not quite sure what to make of it. This was some sort of lucid dream, so whatever.

Syusyuk-.

Soon the last foothold crumbled, and everything was immersed into the dark void.

Seeing Lilys pink hair, I wondered if this was still a dream. However, she frowned which made the corners of her eyes stand out between the mask.

What are you saying? You look sober at least. Now get up and wash your face. Seriously, am I such a saint to take care of someone like you.

It was loud.

That jolted me awake.

Seureureuk-.

As I pulled my arms and legs out from under the blanket, I soon realized that my body was shorter and less powerful than expected. Standing up, the ceiling was also exceptionally high.

Had the world gotten bigger?

No, when I looked in the mirror in the bathroom to wash my face, I noticed the familiar scar around my eye. And a face straddling the line between a boy and a young man.

Overall, it was a pretty face, but the discrepancy imbued by the scar was unforgettable.

Although this face was handsome, I had just been enjoying the world from a tall perspective, so it was disappointing to be short again.

Anyway.

I woke up from the dream.

That means-.

I looked around. Only now did I realize that this was Airas room. But I had been alone in bed, and Lily had mentioned she was taking care of me.

Hey, Lily. What day is it?

The 21st.

I ruffled my flaky hair. The day I dived into Airas dream was the 19th, so at least two days had passed.

I slept for two days?

Thats right! Anyway, you slept so much. But more importantly, I feel like Ive said this before. What is it.

Lily shook her head as if she couldnt understand. Then she asked me as if something had suddenly occurred to her.

Hey, do you remember what happened in the dream?

The dream?

I try to recall as per her question. It felt like a lot had taken place.

But as with dreams, when I tried to remember something, only a few scenes stood out vividly amidst the blurry haze.

What I remembered was wandering through the Witch Forest for a few days, arriving at the wedding venue, the collapsing dream world, and finally discovering something deep below

Im not sure.

Really? So its not just me who cant remember Thats how dreams are, I guess. Anyway, you were the last to wake up.
