Fantasy Clock～Dream Ruler～

[Is your incompetence also due to my ability? 】

The moment I met Su Luoyang's dream maker, I remembered what I had said once.

I understand that there is a fatal gap between Moran and her.

Even if the tug-of-war continues, victory will not fall to our side.

From the beginning to the end, the girl looked at me with arrogant and dismissive eyes.

Cause and effect cycle, and now I have become the incompetent party.

I don't want others to see my spontaneous, sad envy,

Moreover, in a short while, all the rulers will gather here. It would be too foolish to expose my trump card at this time and let the ruler of the enemy discover my final means.

This obsession to return to youth is destined to be short-lived, and now the drama of dreaming back to youth should come to an end.

Try it, save it for another time.

Even if I want to fight back against the opponent with actions, I can't do anything, and I can't be willful. Finally, I stopped Mo Ran. Even aware of her unrepentant grief and feeling oddly frustrated, I stopped the drama.

"Sorry, I was impulsive."

Arms were tensely placed by his side, back bent and bowed, but fists clenched tightly.

funny.

Obviously I laughed at Chalt's impulsiveness not long ago, but now this self-deprecating emotion has come to me again.

"Xia Yinci."

When school was about to end, in the classroom where there were only two people left, Su Ruoyang called me abruptly.

"Um?"

"There's something... I want to ask you anyway."

Su Ruoyang's eyes were a little evasive, and she grabbed the strap of the schoolbag, and did not put it down for a long time.

"Then you can ask."

"Remember when you invited me to join the Dominator game?

"Um."

"At that time you... slept in the same bed as me, didn't you?"

I couldn't believe that Su Ruoyang would ask me this kind of question. I blinked to moisten my eye sockets, and subconsciously played with my hair.

Why did he mention such a thing inexplicably?

But Su Luoyang didn't realize that his words made it difficult for me to answer, and he chased after me when I looked away.

"I... um... why?"

"No... I don't have any strange thoughts!"

Su Ruoyang quickly waved her hands, as if denying some unfounded thought.

He was silent for a long time, and then mustered up the courage to meet my eyes.

"I just...care about whether you did the same thing when you invited others."

For some reason, his chest seemed to be hit by some strange emotion, and he screamed.

I could tell he meant something, and it wasn't kind words.

He is probing, out of mistrust.

I don't know how he sees me, so he thinks I'm so unreasonable.

In your eyes, am I just that unbearable?

Do you think I'm willing to do anything to achieve my goal?

He probably didn't even take what he said seriously.

The door of the world has appeared in front of me without knowing it. I no longer recall what happened when I was out of school. I straightened my face, stretched the wrinkles on my clothes, and was called back to the cracks of my dream again.

When I looked at the position of No. 11, the boy standing at No. 11 also set his eyes on me.

The worry he used to annoy me in the sentence he said after school, oh, I can’t really let go of it for a long time.

But what about me?

I can't confess anything to you, I can always hide your problems.

If you don't understand why, you must be very angry.

I'm sorry...

Obviously you haven't forgiven me yet, but now I am more angry than you.

Obviously you don't know anything about the past...

Obviously I acquiesced to your forgetting, but I still have a heart for the past.

But even if you can't understand me, now we can only endure.

Because only this way has the future. This is the future that must be guarded even if everything repeats itself.

After returning to my own world, I sat by the lakeside of the town all day long, looking at the town on the other side of the lake and the tavern in the distance.

"Hey, Elsie, the lakeside is dangerous."

Passing boatmen on the lake spoke to me as they paddled their oars.

"Um……"

I didn't seriously respond to the other party's meaning, and responded to him with my head propped up.

Now, my mind is only on that strange boy.

At first glance, he appears to be a decent and serious person, and a little bit stupid. However, after meeting him in his world, I found that he likes to joke very much, and he always seems to like to tease others a few times before he is willing to do business.

Of course, what caught my attention the most was his mysterious background.

Is that dream maker who is defiant and indifferent to the ruler, really a dream maker?

While thinking, I gently raised my staff.

Above the magic power gathering, there was a lavender light, which was considered stable.

Having said that, this boy called me some strange names...

I remember that one of them was called "Little Magic Meow". Although I complained about his self-talk in my heart, I had the idea of ​​scaring him by wearing cat ears when I met him.

It's not impossible. I held my chin, looked at the peaceful lakeside in front of me, and inadvertently raised the corners of my mouth.

Leaving from the chaotic scene of the clock, we return to the downtown area of ​​the city.

Thinking of the promise I had with someone, I took a heavy breath and hurriedly pushed open the door of the office.

It was already late at night and there was no one in the office, it was pitch black. I breathed a sigh of relief, turned on the light switch, and couldn't help but focus on the photos on the table.

The photo shows me and a man and a woman smiling at the camera. The joyful mood seems to reach my eyes through the photos, but it seems ironic at the moment. I squeezed my eye sockets tightly, held back the tedious emotions welling up in my heart, and stopped looking at that photo.

I have forgotten when I started, and I couldn't wake up from the dream.

I just remember playing the role of detective in this world. Not the most famous and popular detective in town, always screwing up the cases at hand, always letting the old people deal with the mess, but my days are fulfilled and worth remembering.

But, here is my dream world.

The reason why I regard it as reality is that even if I know that I am dreaming, I have no control over this place. As long as I'm in this office, in this city, I can't use my power of domination, so it's my alternate reality.

This has been my real reality since I couldn't wake up from my dream.

Because the people here are real people with flesh and blood, not NPCs that exist to protect dreams. They move forward with their own goals and look for the meaning of their lives. Everyone in this city lives with their own will and is a real person.

The people here never treat others with pretense, and are more real than the real people I have seen before. So I don't want to go back, and gradually get used to this place, and regard this place as my only reality.

It was the day when I couldn't wake up, and my address to that man became cold and direct by his first name.

william.

At that time, he came to my dream world without consent, and I deliberately stayed away from this city that was not under my control, to a place close to the border of the dream, where people are like NPCs in other dream worlds, without free will. So William had no doubts.

Only I know this paradise, and I am the only one who is obsessed with it.

Therefore, I want to win this game, and then use the power that dominates reality to make this city a real reality, replacing the hypocritical, broken world that is just called "reality".

"Hey! Long time no see, Dominators. Welcome old friends back to the gap between dreams, and welcome new Dominators!"

The noise stopped at the moment when the dream madman spoke. Everyone silently looked at the man standing there, twisting his neck wildly. Facing the scene in front of him, the madman looked extraordinarily excited, and there was also a trace of disturbing expectation mixed into it.

This time, he freely announced the rules of this world, most of which I didn't care about, only one sentence "If you want everything you want, you must fight for it", touched the always positive choice to give up, and the clear desperation me.

I've been avoiding the word "strive" all the time, as if not looking at it can make it disappear.

I really don't like the dream maniac, but he told the truth that I don't want to face, which makes it hard for me to refute.

I couldn't move my eyes comfortably, and landed on the vacant position on the clock.

For some reason, not only did we not have enough people, but the positions of No. 2, No. 6, and No. 8 have already become vacant.

Entering the gap between dreams means that I have to face my real side.

I went to a mirror and looked at myself reflected in the mirror. I clearly saw a pair of vampire-like fangs when I opened my mouth, which made me laugh helplessly like a mockery.

"Is my subconscious perception of myself a vampire?"

Nor can I deny that this is indeed my real face. Because I have always relied on the dependence and support of others, blindly catering to others, and gained a negligible sense of satisfaction, and used this as nourishment to support me until now.

It is undeniable that there is indeed a self that I don't know much about in the dream.

"But why are you dressed like a desperate princess?"

I helplessly turned around and looked at the brown-haired girl, and suddenly couldn't help but complain.

The girl tilted her head, apparently as if she didn't understand why.

"Hey, actually, I think it's quite appropriate."

As she spoke, she lifted her skirt and twirled around, like a princess on the run in war, quietly dancing with the wind.

Face a blow!

Well, I don't deny that she looks good in this. She surprised me again.

"However, even if you are beautiful, the princess is not the one who suits you best!"

"Why?"

"Because you fit the image of a 'demon' better!"

"Hey..."

"Moreover, it's the kind of demon that usually appears as a gentle girl, but when you accidentally show horns and a tail on your head!"

"So you will call me a devil girl from now on, and you won't call me a magic girl or idiot Chafa?"

The girl lowered her head in frustration.

"Hey, why are you so lost! Are you shaking M? Do you like me calling you all kinds of weird names? Speaking of which, when are you going to tell me your name, devil girl!"

"Ehehe... I don't think it's a problem if I don't tell you. Anyway, you can think of all kinds of strange names~"

"I'm afraid you are really the reincarnation of a demon, or the kind of demon that specializes in restraining vampires."

I stopped talking to her, turned around and knocked on the door of my world, a door with dark red and dark black as the main colors, so I walked into this world that I thought I would never have. world to step into.

The other side is the crevice of dreams, a game with the ruler of dreams.
