Chapter 44 - The Dream World

Qiu Jin Wei

(" I knew Creed will ask for something weird as always , but Creed's request is getting weirder and weirder .")

(" I suppose this request is somewhat difficult but it shouldn't be a problem .")

" Accepted ."

<{ Excellent }>

<{ Now I will lead your Soul avatar to wonder within Ae Ri's dream world }>

The World Darkens , as Creed pulled my astral form into a different plane of existence . In the distance an illuminating light shines brightly through the darkness. A passage way opens up , the path towards the dream world is now connected through the astral plane. I walked down a long winded seemingly endless passage way before finally reaching the end of the passage way.

There I found Three Mirrors , within those mirrors I saw different versions of Ae Ri moving and living within those mirrors. The closer I look the more I realized , that these Mirrors represents an important events which took place within Ae Ri"s life. The First Mirror has shown Ae Ri's ordinary life in the world she lived in before she was dragged into this world .

She was but a child about to turn 15 when tragedy struck. That faithful day her family brought Ae Ri to a certain place , as a surprise on her birthday. Little did they know that this will be the last time they will be with each other.

Ae Ri was nothing more than an innocent little girl caught up in the storm of blood and steel.

The Second Mirror showed me sequences of Ae Ri's experiences within the so called trials . Where she was forced to kill and kill and kill to survive . There were many others like her , who simply fought to survive and escape this Hellish world. But in the end they were wiped out by the strong and the wicked.

I looked over to the right and see the third mirror displaying a chaotic scene . Its similar to that of an image representing the chaotic waters of the sea. It was nothing but a chaotic blur.

Qiu Jin Wei

" So what am I supposed to do ?"

[[ Answer : The Host has reached the end of the long passage way towards Ae Ri's memories ]]

[[ Each window represents a life changing events that took place before this very moment ]]

[[ The First Mirror represents Ae Ri's Past ]]

[[ The Second Mirror represents Ae Ri's present ]]

[[ The Third Mirror represents Ae Ri's Future ]]

[[ The Host will now intervene and alter those events , there by saving Ae Ri from her nightmares ]]

Qiu Jin Wei

" But how am I supposed to intervene with events which unfolds long before I've even met with Ae Ri ?"

<{ Its quite simple actually , all you need to do is insert yourself into Ae Ri's memories }>

<{ There you will change the ending of each memory , making you her savior }>

<{ Thus when she returns to her nightmare she will be remembered of the times were she was saved by an unknown figure }>

<{ That's why you need to save her without giving away your identity , however you must do so whilst leaving hints of your identity }>

<{ Thus when she realized that you were there for her in her time of need , she'd realized that the Host had always been there for her when she needed you }>

Qiu Jin Wei

" Sounds a little complicated but , shouldn't be a problem ."

" Now tell me how do I get into these events ?"

<{ All you have to do is to step into the mirror of your chosen event }>

<{ It will take care of the rest }>

Qiu Jin Wei

" But before that , Elise tell me crucial information regarding the first events ."

[[ Confirmed ]]

[[ Ae Ri's next of kin ]]

[[ Current State of the Gates ]]

[[ Current State of the World ]]

[[ Power levels within the World ]]

[[ Items needed for the mission ]]

[[ Confirmed ]]

[[ All crucial knowledge regarding the first events has been transferred to the Host's Mind ]]

" I knew it ."

" Looks like this isn't as simple as I hoped it would be ."

" Elise purchase all the items recommended , and put them in my inventory ."

[[ Confirmed ]]

[[ 20000 Points spent ]]

" Creed , are there any other mission I could take at this time ."

<{ There are a few , but personally I would choose these Two }>

<{ Mission : Become the Number One ranker }>

<{ Reward : Perk Unlocked One Man Show }>

<{ + 100 Blood Essence }>

<{ Mission : Mysterious Figure }>

<{ Reward : Mask of the Unknown }>

<{ + 100 Blood Essence }>

" Hmmm ."

" Quite interesting choices . I must say ."

" Are there any others ?"

<{ Here's the rest of the missions }>

<{ Mission : Blood Bath }>

<{ Objective : Kill 10000 Rank 1 Monsters }>

<{ Kill 1000 Rank 2 Monsters }>

<{ Kill 100 Rank 3 Monsters }>

<{ Kill 10 Rank 4 Monsters }>

<{ Kill 1 Rank 5 Monster ]>

<{ Reward : Perk Blood Scent }>

<{ + 20 Blood Essence }>

<{ Mission : Massacre of The Masses }>

<{ Objective : Kill 1000 Awakeners }>

<{ Reward : Perk Awakeners Worst Nightmare }>

<{ + 40 Blood Essence }>

<{ Mission : Blood Festival }>

<{ Objective : Absorb the Blood of 100 Different Species of Monsters }>

<{ Prerequisite : Awakener Class Vampire }>

<{ Reward : Skill Blood Enchantment +2 }>

<{ + 20 Blood Essence }>

<{ These are all of the other missions , currently available }>

<{ There's more were that came from }>

<{ Well depending on the situation that is }>

Qiu Jin Wei

" Then , are the missions only available during the first events ?"

<{ That is correct }>

<{ On the second mirror its revealed that Ae Ri is already part of a different world }>

<{ Thus , the mission cannot be carried over }>

<{ Oh right before I forgot , all of the Host's stats will be converted back into the base stats }>

<{ Since the Host is basically entering a different world , The Host's power level must be adjusted to the worlds capacity }>

" Understood , but does that mean I will have to start over from scratch in that world ?"

<{ Yes the Host must start over from base awakener level }>

<{ However the Host won't lose his powers in this world }>

" Creed , will I be able to keep the powers I've gained from that world ?"

<{ Unfortunately no since the powers most differs from this worlds powers , thus the Items and powers the Host gains in that world will be converted into System Points , Blood Essence any many other form of exchange }>

" Does this apply to every plain and world ?"

[[ Answer : Yes this does apply over different plains of existence ]]

[[ Every plain of existence has different powers which are able to manifest and items that came from another plain of existence will go through a screening process first before the Host reaches the next plain of existence ]]

[[ Thus some skills are available to use while others are not ]]

[[ As for Items , it must coincide with the technological age of that world to function ]]

[[ However on the other hand perks are only translated to different effects ]]

[[ Thus the perks the Host receive will remain functional , but sometimes they are either buffed or nerfed as they say ]]

" Alright then , lets do this ."

I took a step forward into the First Mirror , the image became chaotic and clouded as I tried to pass through the mirror it felt as if I'm walking through a liquid like substance yet when my head went through it felt like I was in deep space , it felt like there was nothingness and reality itself has merged together. I don't what to call this feeling , it felt distance yet close at the same time , it felt empty yet brimming with light.

Suddenly I woke up in the middle of a grassy field , in the middle of nowhere. I tried to use various skills that I've accumulated yet most of them either didn't work or simply became weakened.

Qiu Jin Wei

" Status window ."

[[ Confirmed ]]

[[ Opening Status Window ]]

" Interesting ."

" Now there's more stats than in the last world ."

" So this is what it means when Creed said that , I couldn't use my skills ."

" Hey Creed are you there ?"

<{ Oh my , are you worried about me }>

<{ Well it can't be helped , I guess }>

<{ I'm just that important to , aren't I , My dearest Host }>

" So I guess even if I were to end up in a different plain of existence Both of you will be stuck there with me huh ."

[[ Answered : The System is connected to the Host's Soul , so where ever The Host is the System will follow ]]

<{ What Elise said is correct , you won't be able to get away from us }>

<{ We're stuck with each other till the end of time eternal }>

<{ So don't worry and just do your thing , My dearest Host }>

" That's good to know ."

I spent the rest of the day getting used to the new stats available thus making it easier to manipulate and alter the slight changes needed to get complete control over it . As I wonder around the fields my stats increase little by little depending on the situation I'm in. After a few hours of aimless walking I managed to find a forest near the green hills beyond the grass plains.

There I heard a shout coming out of the middle of the forest . The cry for help got louder and louder as I went closer to investigate the situation. And that's were I found them , I never thought that the first sign of human activity I encounter would be people getting attack by monsters .

Just my luck .
