I became a vampire princess and then a dragon girl?

Hmm, nice view.

However, Eve who appeared at the door at this time had already been noticed by Arcana, so...

boom--

A white pillow hit Eve's smiling face directly, making her smile freeze instantly.

"Haha, the master didn't dodge."

"Ah! Ka! Na!"

The next moment, Eve's voice joined the battle along with a pillow.

"Three against two? I have the advantage! Viya! Go ahead!"

Holding a pillow, looking at Eve and the other two in front of her, Arcana felt more and more excited. However, in response to her mobilization, Ilvia stood silently beside Eve with the pillow in her hand.

"..."

Well, I can only say that the situation was a bit awkward.

Need I say more about what happened next?

Since Eve also joined the battle, Ilvia no longer slacked off like before. Instead, she became the most hardworking of the four and quickly threw Arcana onto the bed and pressed her under her.

"Ah! Master is cheating!"

"This is called charisma."

In the face of Akana's accusations, Eve acted shamelessly and kept tickling Akana while speaking.

"Ah, haha, ha, master, no, don't~"

"Hmm? Don't want what? Don't want to stop?"

As Eve spoke, her hands moved even faster.

"No, don't, continue!"

His face flushed and he was breathing heavily, looking like he was being raped by Eve over and over again. It took a lot of effort for Arcana to beg for mercy.

"Hehe, now you know how powerful I am~"

"Uh-huh…"

"Okay, go to bed. It's getting late. We have to leave early tomorrow morning."

Eve rolled over and got off Arcana's body and onto the bed, then began to tidy up the messy bed.

"Oh, yes, Viya."

As if she had thought of something, Eve suddenly looked at Ilvia halfway.

"?"

Looking at Ilvia who tilted her head and looked at her with a silly expression, Eve hit her little head mercilessly.

"Don't take my pajamas off tonight."

"Um…"

Seeing Ilvia nodded obediently, Eve was relieved. After all, tonight was different from usual, and she didn't want to have a frank encounter in front of Lucia early tomorrow morning.

"Okay, go to sleep."

After putting the last pillow back in its place, Eve raised her hand and turned off the lights in the room, and everyone slowly fell asleep in the crowded feeling.

I must open the extended part of the bed next time, Eve, who was sandwiched between Istina, Ilvia and Melxia and almost became a roujiamo, thought silently.

By the way, on either side of Istina is Lucia, and on the other side is Arcana.

For Eve, tonight was a night of both pain and joy, but for Istina who slept beside her, it was not the same...

"what--!!!"

With a strong feeling of falling into the abyss after stepping on empty air, Istina suddenly woke up, but found that she was not in Eve's room, but a rather chaotic wilderness, which looked somewhat similar to the scene she saw in the wonderland.

And Istina also found that her body was translucent and illusory, and she could not move on her own, and she could not even turn her head to look in other directions. She could only look at the scenery below from a fixed perspective.

In front of her, the girl in a gorgeous crimson dress whom she had seen in the wonderland was standing a little ahead of her, leaving her with a somewhat lonely back view.

If other people could see Istina at this moment, they might mistake her for the girl's ghost.

"How is this going?"

After trying to move her body a few times but to no avail, Istina had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​struggling and let the girl in front of her lead her to walk in the wilderness.

Istina was inexplicably not too worried about her own safety. Firstly, Eve was by her side. If something really happened to her, Eve would definitely find a way to help her. Secondly, although her memory was a little fuzzy, Istina vaguely felt that this dream was somewhat familiar.

It wasn't a sense of déjà vu from having seen a similar scene in a wonderland, but a more distant sense of familiarity, etched into her very origins...

§41 Dream

This mysterious girl didn't seem to have any clear goal, she was just walking around casually. The horrific natural disasters that Istina had seen in the wonderland and many more disasters she had never seen posed no threat to this girl. They often disappeared in an instant when they were only a few meters away from her.

To be honest, when she saw the other party walking towards the collapsed mountain, Istina subconsciously wanted to grab her, but then she saw that the place next to the girl became a small piece of pure land in the landslide.

Although Istina was floating behind the girl, she had no idea how she managed to resolve these natural disasters. However, this did not prevent Istina from being surprised by her strength. At least if it were Istina herself, she would not be able to deal with these things so leisurely and calmly, and would reveal some traces of using magic.

"Eh? There's still a flower?"

After climbing over another hill, Istina couldn't help but be surprised when she saw a bright color suddenly appearing on the monotonous land not far away.

It is really not easy to have such a touch of color in such a place where natural disasters are everywhere and the land is desolate. While floating behind the girl, Istina roughly counted that they had encountered more than forty attacks from various disasters.

Although there are only a few flowers in this small cluster, it is extremely rare and lucky that they can grow.

And the mysterious girl seemed to have finally found her target and began to walk straight towards the flowers.

This journey was neither long nor short. Naturally, there were natural disasters during the journey, but the girl ignored them all and crossed them.

However, when she was about to approach the flowers, the girl suddenly stopped and just stood quietly not far away, looking in the direction of the flowers, with no intention of getting closer.

"Huh? What's going on? Didn't she want to see the flowers? Why didn't she go over there?"

Seeing the girl's strange behavior, Istina couldn't help but frown.

From her perspective, the other party's behavior was quite contradictory, but the girl's subsequent actions answered her doubts.

As if she had hesitated for a long time, the girl slowly and tentatively stretched out her hand towards the flowers, but then the place closest to the girl in the flowers disappeared in an instant.

"..."

The girl reacted quickly. She immediately put down her hands when she saw some branches and leaves disappear. Then she stood there quietly again, looking at the flowers in front of her. However, Istina noticed a hint of loneliness from her back.

“…disappeared?”

Looking at the familiar scene just now, Istina couldn't help but frown.

Is it possible that she can't control her own power?

It turned out that it was not that this mysterious girl was actively controlling her own power to wipe out the natural disasters that were attacking her. On the contrary, the reason why she was able to wipe out those disasters without any action was because she could not control all of her power.

But just such a little bit of overflowing power is enough to instantly annihilate those natural disasters, which is enough to show the strength of the girl. If it fully erupts, this girl will definitely be qualified to be called a human-shaped natural disaster. She may appear to be a walking annihilation storm, and everything caught in it will disappear.

After figuring this out, Istina had a clearer understanding of the power of this mysterious girl. The overflowing power alone was so powerful. The other party's strength was far above her own, perhaps even stronger than her mother.

Come to think of it, the Brave Master seemed to have mentioned that she was also troubled for a while because she couldn't control all her strength. Could she be as strong as the Brave Master?

But what is strange is that the gorgeous dress on the girl and the ground under her feet will not be erased. Is there any other reason?

boom--

Just as Istina was lost in thought, a muffled sound accompanied by flying dust suddenly came from behind her. Istina was so scared that she subconsciously wanted to look back, but she was fixed in place by the unknown restriction and could not make any move.

"Ah! Found it."

The next moment, a relaxed and casual voice reached Istina's ears, which seemed quite special in this desolate world.

But before she knew who the visitor was, the dream came to an abrupt end.

"Tina, Tina, wake up!"

"Um... Mr. Brave?"

"Yeah, that's right. Tina didn't sleep well, did she? Everyone else has already changed their clothes."

As she spoke, Eve touched Istina's forehead with concern, wanting to see if there was anything wrong with her body.

“Eh? Eh—?!”

Looking around, just as Eve said, everyone else in the room had changed into casual clothes, even the youngest Lucia. Only Istina was still lying on the bed with a sleepy look on her face.

"Ah! I'll get up right away."

As she spoke, Istina was busy fixing her hair, drawing a magic circle, and changing out of her loose pajamas.

"Well, I'm glad Tina is okay. Let's go have breakfast and then leave."

"Good~"

Later, Eve also learned from Istina why she woke up so late.

"Hmm, hm, so Tina dreamed of a girl, and she followed her around like a ghost all night, so she felt listless this morning?"

While spreading butter on the bread in her hand, Eve confirmed Istina's dream for the last time.

"Yeah, that's basically it."

"Hmm... This is a bit tricky. I also have these weird dreams from time to time. It's similar to Tina's, and the next morning I feel like I haven't slept at all."

Eve tapped the table with her fingers, showing a helpless expression.

If she wasn't a frequent all-nighter, her dreams would probably be no different from Istina's this morning.

"Is this so..."

After hearing what Eve said, Istina nodded slightly. Since she knew that this kind of dream would not bring any problems other than sleepiness, it would be fine to just leave it alone. However, Eve did not intend to give up.

"By the way, Tina, do you remember where the scene in your dream was? Is there any conspicuous terrain? Maybe we can find some clues there?"

"Well... because there are always natural disasters in the sky, the surrounding situation is constantly changing, so it's impossible to tell where it is."

In her dream last night, Istina witnessed with her own eyes a mountain collapsing due to a natural disaster.

"That's it..."

Since there was no clue, Eve sighed helplessly. After all, a good cook cannot cook without rice.

But at this moment, Melxia, who heard Istina's words, seemed to have some memory triggered. She swallowed the food in her mouth in two gulps and said.

"Natural disasters are a hallmark of the mythological age! How could Tina dream about that time?"

"Eh--"

For a moment, everyone at the table was stunned by this unexpected news...

§42 Dris Town

The Age of Mythology, an age filled with countless secrets.

The reasons why those powerful gods died have always been a mystery. Although the shadow of the God of Creation in the wonderland seemed to know the truth, he kept his mouth shut and refused to reveal any information.

Even Melchis, who had witnessed the mythological era, did not know the answer to this question. It was as if someone had erased the reason for the end of the mythological era from their minds, and they could not remember any clues at all.

In addition, the lack of information caused by the Dark Ages adds a layer of mystery.

But now, Istina's inexplicable dream is suddenly related to the mythological era. How can this not be surprising?

"Mythological Era?... Can Shia confirm that?"

"Of course, speaking of natural disasters, they are the sign of the end of the mythological era."

After taking a sip of milk to smooth out the food she had just forced down, Melxia nodded with a look of absolute certainty.

"This is really... quite unexpected."
