Chapter 455: The Scene in the Dream
Doesn’t that sound like a flag? Seraph decided to give up thinking about related matters. It must be said that after staying in the human world for a long time, especially taking care of Adele, Xiao Ai, and First Snow every day, Seraph had become more and more like a human in all aspects.
Perhaps this was the change brought about by the so-called “fall.” Then, what was wrong with such a “fall”? Similarly, did the “Lord” who regarded this as a “fall” seem too impersonal? Seraph’s deep blue eyes deepened.
…Why was she overthinking again?
“Thank you for your hard work, Sister Seraph.” Sharon herself was also busy, but she was very grateful for Seraph’s help. She was truly a little angel from beginning to end.
At first, she was a withdrawn little angel who made small mistakes but knew how to correct them. Later, she gradually gained confidence, started to work hard, and became an outgoing and cheerful little angel.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that Sharon later found that long hair wasn’t suitable for her, so she went to the academy’s barbershop and had it cut back to her original silver-gray short hair. After Adele saw it, she had a field day ruffling and patting it. Ahem… was this something that could be said?
“You’re welcome,” Seraph stopped after wiping the last dish and placing it in a suitable spot. “I’m finished.”
“Me too.”
“Then shall we go back to Adele?” Seraph asked with a blank expression.
Sharon’s face flushed. “O-Okay.”
“I wonder which one she’s on.”
“Ugh…” The shy Sharon still couldn’t get used to such a straightforward and explicit discussion.
But that didn’t mean she didn’t yearn for… Adele’s full love. If possible, she also hoped to be the first woman to form a blood cocoon for Adele. In other words… she wanted to be a mother and give birth to a child between her and Adele.
Although Sharon was petite, she might actually be a girl with maternal instincts. And judging from the current situation, Dorothy, Hermione, and Edith were all busy with their own careers in the Vampire race and obviously didn’t have the time or energy to carry out the next step of their life plans.
Celeste was also competing with Tang Linlang in secret, wanting to be the richest woman who could support Adele, so she focused all her attention on business. But Sharon didn’t have such worries. Anyway, she was originally an unfavored child in the family. As a result, she had enough time to do what she wanted to do and love the person she wanted to love.
But even if the shy girl was moved, it was difficult to translate it into direct verbal expression. And more importantly, what would Adele think? Would she want to have her own offspring at this time, when the whole world was busy and nervous?
Sharon was lost in thought and unknowingly arrived at the door of Adele’s bedroom with Seraph. At this time, she could vaguely hear the sound of girls’ laughter coming from inside.
Seraph still had no change in her expression, but Sharon blushed at the thought that she was about to become one of them. The two entered and saw Adele surrounded by girls.
The specific posture was indescribable, but it was enough to match the title of “Queen of All.” But was it Sharon’s illusion? She caught a glimpse of Adele, immersed in endless pleasure, with a hint of sadness in her eyes as she smiled wantonly, as if the girl had never experienced complete relaxation, with something always weighing on her heart.
………………
Late at night, influenced by the scene she had inadvertently glimpsed earlier, Sharon couldn’t fall asleep. Instead, she used her ability to perceive and manipulate dreams.
After making sure that everyone except herself had fallen asleep, she chose to enter Adele’s dream, trying to solve her confusion and find out. It’s just that the girl never knew that Adele was not completely unconscious in the dream.
On the contrary, she could clearly sense Sharon’s arrival. And to this, Adele in the dream showed a faint wry smile, but did not expose it. The girl still chose to immerse herself in her own world, letting Sharon be a disobedient but quiet bystander, a visitor from outside the dream.
It was a strange dream Sharon had never seen before. An empty world, or to be precise, an empty space centered on Adele and a mirror, as if nothing existed. The girl was floating in it, or rather, infinitely ascending, infinitely falling.
And outside this space was the normal world, vaguely discernible as somewhere in Cromwell Academy. The boundary between nothingness and existence was blurred. Adele stood in the center of the void, facing the full-length round mirror, quietly looking at her reflection in the mirror, not knowing what she was thinking.
Sharon was frozen in place, shocked by this scene. The silly girl took a long time to remember to find a place to hide. But the dream suddenly came to an end, accompanied by the girl’s voice that only she could hear.
—”Are you still hiding from me?”
As the end.
Sharon’s consciousness fell along with the collapse of the dream. The feeling was like falling off a cliff! This was almost unimaginable for a vampire whose ability was to manipulate dreams. She seemed unable to escape, locked by this dream!
When the dream disappeared, it would be the moment she fell into the real world that she could never reach! But at this moment, someone tightly held her hand that was reaching upwards as if asking for help, and pulled her back from the collapsing dream. Pulled her back to reality.
In reality, Sharon suddenly woke up from the dream, panting and opening her eyes slightly. Unexpectedly, but as if reasonable, what appeared in front of her was Adele’s soft and gentle face.
She came to Sharon’s side at some point. And with a smile, she held one of her small hands and gently shook it.
“I caught you~” She said in a very soft voice, so as not to wake up the other girls beside her. Only Sharon was both shy and embarrassed, her eyes sparkling, her heart pounding.
It took a long time for the girl to recover from the previous fright. And the first thing Sharon did after biting her lip was to apologize to the girl in front of her, the Adele she loved deeply…
“I’m sorry… Adele.” It was no longer necessary to make excuses or explain anything. If you are beaten, stand at attention. If you do something wrong, you should apologize. She shouldn’t have secretly sneaked into Adele’s dream.
Sharon didn’t want Adele to hate her, so she was willing to admit all her mistakes and accept all punishments. Even though she was still curious about what she saw in Adele’s dream, as long as Adele didn’t want to, she would definitely keep it a secret for the rest of her life.
Of course, she would not inquire about what Adele did in the dream, about why she was facing a mirror, and when she started… being able to be awake and conscious in her own dream?
Hearing this, Adele gently shook her head. “Silly, I don’t blame you.”
“After all, Sharon was also concerned about me, so she couldn’t help but abuse her ability a little~”
“…”
Sharon’s eyes suddenly turned slightly red. Even at this time, the gentle Adele was still trying to find excuses for her. But she… couldn’t understand the pressure and bitterness Adele was bearing at all, and secretly did willful and selfish things… causing trouble for Adele.
Sharon didn’t know what to say anymore. And her appearance was obviously not the expression Adele wanted to see after comforting her. What a little fool. Adele thought helplessly.
Since words couldn’t comfort her, then just take action. So, before Sharon could react, Adele kissed her lips skillfully. Even her fingers subconsciously… ahem, it was better not to go too far.
It wouldn’t be good to wake up others, because if that was the case, it would mean that Adele might have to start the legendary “second round”! I’m afraid that by the time this “second round” was over, Adele wouldn’t need to sleep anymore, because it would already be dawn.
And after “comforting” Sharon with a passionate kiss, Adele separated them. She was slightly panting, breathing out a faint fragrance, and staring into Sharon’s almost absent-minded light golden eyes.
“Sharon… are you very concerned about the scene you saw in the dream?” The girl asked softly.
Sharon also quickly woke up because of this question.
Chapter 456: The Old Me
After hesitating for a long time, Sharon finally nodded. If you were to ask why, it was still because of her deep feelings for Adele. She wanted to understand everything about Adele, whether it was good or troublesome, happy or unhappy, not just the present, but also the past and the future.
She wanted to share the heavy responsibilities Adele carried on her young shoulders. She wanted to be one of the girls Adele could rely on… not a burden that needed to be coaxed and comforted. Sharon actually understood that this world had started to become different! Although with her level, she clearly couldn’t come into contact with the things that people at that level needed to consider.
But even the most insensitive person should have noticed that everything around them was speeding towards an unknown direction. Gatherings like today, where everyone got together, had not happened for a long time. Before this, everyone was very busy, and there were always people who couldn’t make it.
Sharon could always attend the parties, but gradually, she would also secretly think in private, was it really okay for her to continue living such a leisurely life? She didn’t want to stay where she was anymore. She also hoped that there would be a place for her by Adele’s side in the future!
No matter what kind of future the girls would face, she had no reason to escape. She also wanted to fight alongside Adele!
Adele sighed softly and revealed a doting and cute expression of “I really can’t do anything with you~”. Then, she approached Sharon’s ear and whispered, “Then I’ll tell you.”
“About my… biggest secret.”
“But the premise is, you have to coax me to sleep again~”
“Eh…” Sharon obviously didn’t expect such a request. With her honest personality, she really didn’t know how to respond for a while. Similarly, she also didn’t know how… to coax Adele to sleep.
It must be said that this was really a scene that could make people feel a sense of contrast. Sharon, who had the ability to hypnotize, was actually incredibly pure. She didn’t even know how to coax a girl to sleep. What a waste of this ability that Adele dreamed of.
But it was precisely because of this that Sharon seemed cute and precious.
After a while, Adele looked at the dazed Sharon and finally couldn’t help it. She quickly reminded, “Idiot, use hypnosis~”
Saying that, Adele closed her eyes in front of Sharon, looking like she was at her mercy. It was also at this time that Sharon realized that Adele was not joking or teasing her, but wanted to return to the dream world.
Return to that… special spiritual realm that only the two of them could enter. There, she would explain it to her carefully again. Obviously, there were some secrets that Adele was not ready to reveal to all the girls at once, but she could allow Sharon to sneak a peek first.
If it was successful with Sharon, then Adele’s heart, which had been hanging for a long time, could finally relax a little.
“…I understand.”
Sharon softly responded to Adele, who closed her eyes. Then, she also closed her eyes and began to release her unique mental power that could make people fall asleep, covering Adele’s body, especially her head.
Because Adele was extremely obedient in her mind, coupled with her relaxed state, it could be said that in an instant, Adele felt her vision darken, and her consciousness fell into a deep pit.
The next moment, she had already arrived in her dream.
Sure enough, it was here again. Cromwell Academy, the locker room where the story began. Everything started from here. But unlike in her memory, at this moment, in the locker room, there was no Adele forced by Celeste, nor Hermione who came to her aid.
As for the other girls, they were scattered somewhere in this dream world. There was only a mirror beside Adele. “Adele” inside also followed the girl’s line of sight, together looking at the familiar furnishings inside from the door of the locker room.
The next moment, Sharon’s mental power entered Adele’s dream. This time she did not hide, but appeared openly in front of Adele.
A pair of confused and puzzled eyes first looked at Adele’s cheek, and then looked towards the locker room. Her ability was only related to dreams. As for Adele’s specific memories, and the significance of this place to the girl…
Sharon couldn’t find out with her own power. So she could only pluck up the courage in her heart and shout, “Adele… now, can you tell me that secret?”
Hearing Sharon’s call, Adele finally came back to her senses. Her eyes blinked, revealing her usual gentle smile.
“Of course.”
Saying that, she turned around, went to the railing in the corridor, and leaned against it, looking at the chaotic sunset and orange setting sun of this dream world.
“Adele” in the mirror didn’t turn around. This was noticed by Sharon, instantly giving her goosebumps all over her body. Because no one could understand the “strangeness” of this scene better than her!
As a girl whose abilities all came from dreams and also acted on dreams, there were probably not many people in this world who knew more about dreams than she did.
Dreams, in scientific terms, referred to the product of the functions of the nervous system such as perception, memory, and storage, containing people’s subconscious desires and emotions. Freud even called them the “royal road to the unconscious”.
But what was happening in Adele’s dream… could it really be described as “unconscious”? The “Adele” in the mirror was like she had her own mind.
Sharon didn’t dare to think about it anymore. She felt scared, so she quickly approached Adele… and held the girl’s arm.
“Don’t be afraid,” Adele comforted the girl. It seemed that this wasn’t the first time she had experienced this kind of thing. So she acted very naturally, still looking at the scenery in the distance.
Those scenes that were commonplace in the real world, because there was no one in the dream, gave people a strange feeling when looking at them. For example, Adele would occasionally think that if she didn’t consider her identity after transmigrating, would her world… be like the current dream, empty?
After a long silence, Adele finally said, “Sharon, do you still remember the ‘old me’?”
