She soaked it for too long.

I'm going to get dizzy if I soak in it any longer.

My body felt slightly weak, and I felt vaguely powerless.

Moving around on the parallel stools, Sakayanagi Arisu wiggled her hips as she turned toward the mirror beside her.

Repeating the action of forcing a smile, the girl looked at herself in the mirror.

Unobstructed by the rising steam, the mirrors on the luxury cruise ship are self-heating.

A very clear, rather ugly, forced smile came into view.

The dream ended, but Sakayanagi Arisu seemed to still be in the dream.

Chapter 237 Results of the Special Exam on the Deserted Island Announced

Sakayanagi Arisu, who had just woken up from her dream, was in a state of emotional turmoil, while Asakusa Tetsu, the one who started it all, was completely unaware of it.

He truly couldn't have imagined that this dream wouldn't teach Alice what humility meant, nor would it change her attitude, and it certainly didn't give her much of a sense of punishment.

Instead, it was her wings that snapped in an instant.

What is all this nonsense?

Am I really as bad a person as you imagine?!

--Yes.

If you asked this question to Arisu Sakayanagi's face, she would definitely give an affirmative answer without hesitation.

That's terrible, that's awful, that's inhuman.

Humiliation and manipulation are secondary; she can't remember the details anyway, so they're irrelevant.

The important thing is the manipulation of dreams itself.

The sense of security that came from my family environment, social status, physical strength, and intelligence was suddenly shattered like glass.

In the past, Sakayanagi Arisu was surrounded by three layers of things that gave her a sense of security.

The first layer is her father, Sakayanagi Narumi, who loves his daughter. Even though she has a congenital heart disease and is physically weak, he still tries his best to give her the love that a normal father should have.

The Sakayanagi family's power was enough to make them cherish and protect her in every way.

On one hand, she has a frail body; her congenital heart disease is a disadvantage, but when combined with her incredibly perfect appearance, it becomes an advantage.

She will be sighed over, others will feel sorry for her, and as the 'vulnerable party,' she will receive preferential treatment no matter what she faces.

The final layer is wisdom, innate intelligence, a clever mind, the ability to easily grasp most knowledge, and the ability to freely interpret most behaviors and opinions.

Perhaps there is some superiority derived from comparison, but this superiority is perhaps the greatest foundation of the sense of security that surrounds us.

But it didn't work.

None of these three methods are effective against Toru Asakusa.

He didn't care about power; from the very beginning, he showed contempt for the power of ordinary people.

He doesn't care for the weak, the elderly, or the young. If an elderly person on a bus needs to be given a seat, he will coldly wait for others to get up.

The fact that he repeatedly wrote in his diary to provoke her emotions, despite her being a patient with congenital heart disease, is enough to prove his depravity.

As for wisdom.

Ah, if her intelligence were truly extraordinary, she should have discovered Asakusa Tetsu's identity much earlier.

Unfortunately, no.

She is certainly not mediocre; after all, her life over the past decade or so has not been a lie.

Sakayanagi Arisu decided to take some time to cool off.

In other words, although the process may have been somewhat bumpy, in a sense, Asakusa Toru achieved his goal.

The little princess stopped dancing.

After being packaged in several layers, the resolution of the dream world is reduced to an infinite degree, and time is stretched out to an unbearably long period.

Therefore, Arisu Sakayanagi's memories of dreams are vague; she can only grasp the images she most desires.

He couldn't be sure whether he would remember Asakusa Tetsu's appearance.

There is a possibility that my identity will be exposed.

But does that matter?

To date, there are a total of five holders of the diary in Advanced Training: Kikyo Kushida, Suzune Horikita, Hiyori Shiina, Arisu Sakayanagi, and Honami Ichinose.

Honami Ichinose fired him right away, and Hiyori Shiina fired him a couple of days ago as well.

The remaining Kikyo Kushida might still be a little unaware of what's going on, while Suzune Horikita was completely clueless. Even if Sakayanagi Arisu fired her now, she wouldn't feel anything.

Although Alice seems to be the best dancer, in a way, she is already half-in his hands.

...To be honest, this seems to be the first time that Asakusa Tetsu has treated a woman in such a... 'awful' way.

Indeed, after much deliberation, he could only use this word to describe the good deed he had done.

To describe it as a heinous crime is ultimately just a dream, a dream that leaves no memory but only an impression.

To describe it as a good thing is to say that he had sex with Alice all night under rather subtle circumstances.

If the duration of a dream is extended, the physical sensations it evokes might actually be decades.

His initial intention was undoubtedly to correct the little princess, and incidentally, he wanted to have sex with Sakayanagi Arisu, which is why he casually created the underlying logic of 'succubus'.

Extending from the succubus setting, she is malnourished because she doesn't like to eat, poor because she comes from a single-parent family, and slow-thinking because her brain is filled with glue.

Build the framework and fill in the settings.

This is the final result.

Quite distorted.

Now that he's awake, he feels he should reflect on his actions and see if he went a bit too far.

In the past, he certainly wouldn't have used such a crude and direct method to manipulate others.

He is used to natural and gradual contact, the kind of drinking and conversation that is the most reasonable, correct and heartfelt choice.

It's true that one does what one thinks, but if it's not restricted, it will turn into a whimsical, tyrannical, chaotic mess.

Asakusa Tetsu didn't consider himself a good person, but if he were to become a major villain... he felt he was still lacking something.

The first thought that comes to mind when seeing a beautiful girl is, of course, to want to chisel her. But if he really followed his heart, should he rush up and pin her to the ground to chisel her?

This has clearly gone beyond following one's heart and has become succumbing to animalistic instincts.

I want to do it, I will do it, but I can also choose not to do it.

It's not time for me to become Happy Superman yet.

Of course, he did build the framework of the dream, but the subsequent development was clearly beyond his control.

Actually, he wasn't without flaws.

For example, Alice's body, though barren, underdeveloped, and fixed throughout her life, never changed its parameters in sync with reality.

Alice's size and age were already dangerous enough. Although that was the setting, Asakusa Tetsu felt that if she really shrank, she would be shot. So he simply kept her at 1.5 meters tall.

If she had noticed this anomaly, perhaps she would have realized earlier that it was a dream.

Of course, it would be a gross underestimation of the multiple layers of debuffs he has accumulated if it were that easy to wake him up.

The succubus, driven by instinct and with a dulled mind, feels love born from her submissive instincts and natural affinity, yet the harsh realities of life loom before her.

If the little princess really wakes up, then surrendering might not be such a bad idea.

If he hasn't woken up yet, try mugwort.

You should know that Miss Tianze has been chiseled countless times in her dreams.

You, Sakayanagi Arisu, are the junior!

cough.

In short, the self-examination and reflection have been carried out, but the question remains: will Toru Asakusa continue to manipulate dreams...?

He will definitely answer.

Who knows? The dream was so much fun!

In any case, most of it will be forgotten in the end, so just build a fun base and play with it however you want.

This time he came with the purpose of correcting the little princess; next time he might be able to play with something else.

Although I don't know if the goal of correcting the little princess has been achieved, it doesn't matter. He had a lot of fun, and that's enough.

Unfortunately, perhaps he went a bit too far, because the amulet on his chest seemed to have dimmed slightly, as if it had been discontinued.

A time span of more than ten years is still too long.

The dream is over, the sun is rising, and the review and debriefing are finished.

But for some reason, Asakusa Tetsu always felt like he had forgotten something.

Oh well, since I've forgotten, it probably wasn't anything important anyway.

I'll remember it sooner or later.

......

Please remember!

Ms. Shiina's cheeks had puffed out.

He was whining and groaning, clearly showing some unhappiness.

She suspected she had been forgotten.

Hasn't he already gone back to the cruise ship?!

Yesterday, I could say that Longyuan took me to see the school and we went back to review, discuss and analyze this special exam, but what about today?

The exam results will be announced today!

Apart from Class A, no one really cared about the results of this exam.

After all, everyone else got 0 points.

However, as expected, everyone is still curious about how many points Class A, who ultimately achieved the greatest result by leaving the field, will receive.

"The results of the special test on the uninhabited island will be announced next."

As if issuing a notice, Majima Tomoya held a microphone on the deck, and the sound of the loudspeaker rang out on the deck.

Although notice had been given in advance, not all the students had actually arrived on the deck. Many students who did not care about the exam results were still enjoying the cruise ship service.

Of Class C, only she, Ibuki, Ryuen, and Albert were present.

Class D only has Horikita Suzune and Hirata Yosuke, along with a few other guys whose names I don't recognize.

For some reason, Sakayanagi Arisu from Class B didn't come out, but the rest of the class was present. Although they were the ones who were disqualified from the exam, they were clearly more concerned about the exam results and the changes in their rankings than the two lower-ranked classes.

After all, they were originally in Class A, so it would be strange if they didn't care.

As for the current Class A, their attendance was quite complete, with a rough estimate suggesting there were over thirty people; everyone who was supposed to be there was present.

The only person Shiina Hiyori wanted to see hadn't yet shown up.

...Is it because they are still resting?

After all, during the exams on the island, she worked tirelessly, taking on the role of the class's check-in point and completing three island-hopping marathons every day. It's time for her to take a break...

Just as Shiina Hitomi was finding reasons to explain herself, Asakusa Tetsu's figure finally appeared late from the cabin.

With her slightly messy hair and long yawn, she seemed completely unconcerned about her image, yet this casualness made Shiina Hiyori's heart flutter.

She felt she should shout "Oh ho!"

He silently exclaimed "Oh!" in his heart, and soon he heard Majima Tomoya's voice in his ears.

"Because this special exam was conducted under unusual circumstances, the exam, which was originally scheduled to end on the 7th, was completed early yesterday. Therefore, the results of this exam are only being announced. The school will not answer any questions students may have. Please review and reflect on the content of the exam on your own."

"I hope you will accept the results yourselves, analyze them, and apply what you've learned to the next exam."
