"You have been oddly quiet," I heard as fire crackled. I looked up to find Helen staring at strangely. Perhaps that dream affected in more ways than I want to admit. But I can’t help it—the fact that it seems the individual who was about to go into whatever the hell ’the cradle’ was, relates to .
Or is he ?
Am I trapped within so cradle trying to rember who I am?
I an, this isn’t the first ti sothing like this has happened. Back then, while I was trapped within that ga, it was this sa thing. I was stripped of my mories and thrust into an incomplete world to serve as entertainnt, completely unaware of my circumstances.
Could this all just be the sa thing?
Is this whole world just like the ga one?
Am I... not in the real world?
"Sighs," I sighed visibly, rubbing my forehead.
What even prompted to have that dream in the first place?
Could it be due to what the slave bond between Helen and I was doing to ?
I an, it could be.
I have never had such a dream before, and even if it was all darkness, the voices felt so vivid.
"Hey," I heard and looked up again. Tsk, I got lost in my thoughts again. But I can’t help myself—I am just so lost and frustrated altogether. What if all this is just so ga? What if all this is just so elaborate story by so grander entity, just like with that goddess and the ga? I can’t rule it out. If that for so reason has so truth to it, does that an Tessa... wasn’t really telling the truth before she sent to this world?
"Mind your business. Isn’t that boyfriend of yours just so tents away?" I asked, not really in the mood for dealing with her. At this point, all the amusent I had from ssing with her was gone. I was no longer in the mood to joke around. I don’t know what exactly it is, but I have this feeling that sothing is coming... sothing I can’t quite place my finger on.
Sighs.
Right now we were already on our way to the academy. It was nightti so we made camp. We should reach Windfall—that’s the city where the Academy is located—tomorrow. At this point, all I plan to do after getting to Windfall is to first investigate if the ’darkness’ Tessa talked about is actually real.
Yes, after that dream, I am really starting to have doubts about everything.
And that’s because there’s a chance I am just so pawn in a larger ga.
The whole Tessa situation was too ’convenient’ if I think back on it.
It was just like it was planned to happen that way.
Or... at least that’s what I think now.
"You have been acting quite odd after I returned to that room. Wait... don’t tell ," her eyes widened and I rolled mine, already guessing what she was thinking in that rotten brain of hers. "Are you jealous or sothing?" she asked, and I just blankly stared at her.
"How exactly are you going to help participate in the entrance examination? If I rember correctly, it’s for nobles," I said, totally ignoring her question.
"Well, I would just register you as one of the noble houses under our control," she said.
"You can do that?" I asked with a frown.
"Yeah," she responded, hugging herself more tightly as she stared at the fire.
"You can just use your ability to warm yourself," I said, tossing another piece of wood into the fire.
"No, idiot," she said, and I looked blankly at her.
"Hmph," she huffed.
For so reason, it seems the master-slave relationship is getting distorted.
"Firstly, call master. Second, why do you think it’s stupid?" I asked, and she just glared at . She still didn’t like calling master, but then again, I don’t care.
"Sighs If I use my mana here, not only would I risk mana depletion when I actually need mana to protect myself, I would also stand the risk of attracting wandering mana beasts. Though that might not be so problematic given that the beasts that roam these areas are mostly low rank, fighting mana beasts at night isn’t exactly ideal," she said, and I nodded.
Made sense.
"So... what’s that boyfriend of yours doing?" I asked, changing the topic.
"You really aren’t jealous?" she asked, and I just wanted to slap my forehead at this point. Why was this girl so shaless?
"I am not interested in you, and I probably never will, so just forget it," I said.
"..." I looked at her and found her eyes slightly narrowed, like she didn’t believe . God, who praised this bitch so much that she beca this way?
"Just answer the question... I am not in the mood for your weird fetish," I said, taking a calm breath before tossing another branch into the fire.
"I don’t know," she said, and I frowned.
"Yo, we are completely under his rcy. Your guards are few since the bandit attack, and we didn’t wait for more backup. Most of the guards here are his. Shouldn’t you at least be cautious?" I asked, and she huffed as though I was the only one stupid for thinking that way.
"He would never harm . What is there to worry about?"
Is it just , or is she getting more spoiled by the day?
Well, fuck it.
Once I get to Windfall tomorrow and she registers , to hell with her. At this point, all I want to do is figure out the reason for that dream.
