Chapter 252: Dream or Real?
Elysia woke up from her sleep, and one of the first things she noticed was that her vision was blurry, not because she just woke up, but tears.
'Alisha, Alisha, can you hear ? Where are you?' Elysia tried to call, but she got no response. Understanding it was pointless, she touched her wet cheek with her left hand.
'Eh? Am I crying in sleep? Just now, my eting with Alisha... A dream or not? It really happened, right?' Elysia muttered with so confusion in her mind while looking at the ceiling of the rather dim treatnt room.
As soon as she hugged and heard Alisha's reply, she woke up from sleep and ca out of Subconscious Mind without any prior notice. It was so sudden as if everything she saw was cut off like a normal dream.
'Subconscious Mind, huh... How do I get into that realm again? Alisha and All of her mories are there, but I feel like sothing is weird now. What's wrong with ? Nevermind, I'd better try to get back there.' Elysia closed her eyes again while trying to get into Subconscious Mind.
Her conversation with Alisha wasn't supposed to be over yet. There were many unanswered questions over all her confusion.
Yet, the effort was in vain. Elysia entered into Soul Realm instead of Subconscious Mind. Then, she returned to her body to try again. Sadly, it didn't work either.
'Failed, I don't know how to get into Subconscious Mind.' Elysia sighed in disappointnt, then she remained silent, lost in thoughts for a mont in the Soul Realm. Feeling that she couldn't find a way, she turned sideways at Elena, who was still sleeping beside her.
Elysia looked at Elena's ethereal beauty for a few seconds. Nevertheless, she decided to wake up her guardian angel even though there was an impulse telling her not to do that. But, the event about Alisha just now kept bugging her mind. She needed enlightennt as soon as possible, and Elena could be her confidant.
"Sister Elena, please wake up. I just had such a surprising encounter." Elysia shook Elena's body a little.
"Uh-ah, What happened, Ely? Is it morning already?" Elena opened her eyes a little. Ms. She still felt quite tired, and that was because of yesterday's events.
"It's 4 o'clock in the morning. But, yes, it's morning. You know, I had a strange incident during my sleep just now. I'm confused about whether it was a dream or real. Nee, please listen to ." Elysia checked the clock in the outside world for a mont and looked back at Elena, who seed to be going back to sleep.
"Uhm-ah, that's your first dream after a month's absence, Ely. Hum, I'm all ears, please tell ." Elena took a comfortable position for her head on the pillow and opened her eyes.
"I just t Alisha's spirit in a realm similar to this Soul Realm. Alisha nad it as Subconscious Mind." Elysia said that with a calm expression, but it made Elena dumbfounded instead.
"Wha wait, what? Is that true and not a dream, Ely?" Elena imdiately propelled herself from the bed. She sat down and looked at Elysia with great interest to find out more about the encounter's mysteriousness.
"Um, I also beca confused after I woke up. I'm sure it was real, but it also felt like a dream. Want to hear what happened from the start?" Elysia also sat down. She shook her head helplessly because she was lost just thinking about that.
In response to that, Elena naturally nodded her head. But, she realized sothing when she saw the outside world using Elysia's perception. "Ely, you can tell , but you need to get back into your body first. Eve clasped your hand in her sleep. She will surely be startled in panic when she finds you dead again."
Hearing Elena's gentle advice, Elysia nodded and imdiately returned to her body. She looked around for a mont this ti. Sure enough, Evelyn sat on the bench and leaned forward onto the bed in her sleep, holding her hand. Furthermore, Ella slept on the long sofa, and Pope Alexander slept in a sitting position on the other.
Other than that, Vanessa slept on her master's tummy. The white cat curled up as if treating her master as a comfortable bed.
After examining the rather dim treatnt room, Elysia began to tell Elena about what happened. She tried to convey all the events regarding Alisha in as much detail as possible because she still rembered everything clearly.
If it really was a dream, she knew so theories explained that the dream's details would soon be forgotten by conscious mory. She wanted to avoid that from happening.
'I see, if that's true, Alisha is so pitiful. Subconscious Mind, hmm... Alisha even asked to be resurrected with her parents? Ely, how can we go there to confirm everything in person?' Elena rested her chin against her hand with so thoughts and suspicions. After hearing Elysia's story, she also felt sad and sympathetic to Alisha.
'I thought the sa thing, and I tried it twice, but I entered Soul Realm as a result. To be honest, I also don't know how to get into Subconscious Mind.' Elysia admitted that with a hint of disappointnt.
'It's okay, Ely. Let us examine this together. Before you made it into Subconscious Mind, what did you do?' Elena tried to reassure her sweet little sister so that they could think with a clear and calm mind.
'Umm, wait a mont. I went to bed when I finished exchanging personal stories with Ella and Eve. Sleeping for a dreamless sleep where I slept in a flash and woke up a few hours later did not happen. Everything I know, I suddenly realized myself in the Subconscious Mind and t Alisha.' Elysia thought for a few seconds before answering, but she couldn't find any clues from there.
'Hmm... Then it's a little difficult. We just need to experint the way we always do, Ely. If that realm is called Subconscious Mind, then isn't that pretty obvious? Maybe, we can only go there if what works on us is the conscious mind and the subconscious as well? Use two of them at the sa ti? It's there, sowhere in your body, but we haven't realized it yet.' Elena tapped her cheek and made so assumptions.
'Okay, let's try a few things, Sister Elena. Want to experint here and now?' Elysia asked for confirmation.
'En, I think it's fine if we do it now. We'll just try to get into that realm until soone wakes up from their sleep.' Elena nodded in agreent.
Right after that, Elysia and Elena tried to experint with several ways and thods to get into Subconscious Mind. It was only done using the mind, and Elysia would still appear to be in a night of deep sleep if observed from the outside world.
After dozens of failed attempts, Elysia and Elena finally made it into the mini version of Soul Realm. The countless mory orbs of various colors and sizes were all around them. It was as if they were in the middle of a lively and beautiful festival.
"Oh wow, I can also get into your subconscious mind, Ely. Wow, it's so beautiful and festive here. Ah, where's Alisha now? Alisha? Alisha, where are you? Can you hear ?" Elena floated around while looking for Alisha. Unfortunately, she found nothing but countless mory orbs.
Elysia also tried to find Alisha's figure by flying around and calling out Alisha's na. Still, she couldn't find the person she was looking for either.
"Sister Elena, it looks like we just wandered around in vain. Why can't we find Alisha anywhere? She was the one who ca to at that ti, but when we ca to her, she is nowhere to be seen." Elysia floated closer to Elena, who was still looking for Alisha. She felt bewildered about this, and she didn't know what else to do.
"Yes, but this is too odd, Ely. Or maybe it was just your dream because you thought about Alisha too much due to Rosie's matter?" Elena stopped in her tracks with a perplexed look on her face.
"I don't know, but it's too real to be said as a dream. The fact that we made it into this realm is concrete proof of that." Elysia shook her head, not knowing how she felt right now.
"Or maybe, there is an existence that wants us to co here, and it takes the form of Alisha in your dreams, Ely? Whatever, where have you ever t Alisha, Ely?" Elena put her hand on her chin in deep thought, but she imdiately shook her head and made a suggestion.
"The last ti I t Alisha... It was in the swarm of the bluish-white mory orbs, at the very end." Elysia turned around and pointed in a direction.
"Let's go over there, Ely. Maybe we can get a hint or a ssage from your dream." Elena didn't wait for another second. She imdiately grabbed Elysia's hand, and they flew towards the intended place.
"Here, Ely?" After they reached the very end of the swarm of bluish-white mory orbs, Elena asked for confirmation.
"Yeah, looks like it's right here." Elysia beca sowhat doubtful because this swarm had two ends.
"Wait a mont, Sister Elena, let confirm first." After saying that, Elysia reached out her hand to touch one of the mory orbs. Well, what she got was the mory of Alisha as a baby.
"Ah-uh, we ca to the wrong end, Sister Elena. The place I an is on the other side." Elysia smiled awkwardly after the mory recording was finished.
"Well, it looks the sa. It's natural to mistake it. Let's go to the other end, Ely." Elena wagged her hand with a reassuring smile. She could also make the sa mistake if she was in the Elysia position.
Elysia just nodded and put the mory orb in its original place. Then, she and Elena imdiately rushed to the other end of the swarm that consisted of more than a hundred thousand mory orbs.
"Yes, around here is where I last t Alisha. I exchanged words with Alisha after seeing several recorded scenes from so of these mory orbs. However, I woke up a mont after." Elysia floated closer to one of the mory orbs. "Have you found any clues here, Sister Elena?"
"Uhm, regrettable, but I can't find anything that can help us get out of this confusion, Ely." Elena looked around carefully, but the result was still nothing. She couldn't find Alisha's whereabouts or anything that could serve as clues.
"Nah, allow to take a look at that very recent mory orb, Ely. There may be a clue." Elena suddenly had a bright idea. She ca closer to a mory orb at the very end. Then, she touched it, and a scene played out before her eyes. Whereas Elysia just left Elena in silence while waiting.
A few monts later, Elena put the mory orb back into its original position, then faced Elysia with a slightly sad and gloomy expression.
"Ely, what I saw was Alisha's mory before she died. It's too sad, what happened and what she felt. But, it beca unclear and was cut off suddenly during the moonlit night. Similar to the story you described a mont ago. Alisha, may the Almighty bless you beautifully... May you rest in peace." Elena clasped her hands in prayer. She sent an orison because of this unusual event.
Despite everything, it made Elysia both confused and alard. As far as she could rember, the last mory orb was Alisha in this realm... Alisha was looking at the scene from many mory orbs, one by one.
But, Elena said different from what she knew. Because of that, Elysia imdiately put aside her wandering thoughts, then got closer to the mory orb at the very end and touched it.
