Re:Zero - Jobless Reincarnation: Succubus Sword God? I don't recognize it!

Chapter 416 Awakening Aixia

Jialong calendar, 416 years.

November 23rd, morning.

Click – 6:17
The pendulum is not swinging, and the meeting has not yet happened in the current time and space.

The dream is faithfully brought to this moment by the soul of someone who cannot forget.

Aixia returned to the Frost Night of November 3rd.

It was dark and gloomy, and the air was thick with the smell of blood.

Before my eyes, there is a 'sun' shining brightly.

Because she had dreamed this "November 3rd reunion dream" too many times, Aisha could clearly recognize that she was dreaming.

In fact, based on experience, from now on, as long as I keep telling myself that I am dreaming, the dream in front of me will be shattered.

You will wake up by yourself.

Oh, this is not experience.

This is the lesson of many failed "sudden awakenings"
Aisha didn't want to wake up at all.

Because this is one of the few opportunities to see Allen.

It's not the lonely tombstone, nor the grave mound covered with green grass.

A living person.

As soon as I thought of this, I realized that I was in a dream.

She immediately focused her attention on the content of the dream.

then
The thick night melted away and the view became clear.

Crack, the footsteps broke the dry grass on the ground.

The figure I think about day and night is standing there
in front of yourself.

Plop, plop, plop, plop.

The densely packed corpses fell to the ground one after another in time with the heartbeat.

The blood spurted out with a hissing sound, swaying in the night along with his own breath.

In an instant, the night frost, which made people feel sore in the nose when inhaled, was stained with blood.

His voice sounded familiar yet strange.

"Fortunately we made it in time. It was a close call. Madam, Lilia, Norn, and Aisha."

With a hissing sound, a blazing fireball emerged from the air, illuminating the surroundings.

Not far away, the mother who had fallen to the ground due to a new injury on her leg stared blankly at the figure holding the fireball, and first confirmed in disbelief:

"Ai Allen??"

"It's me, Lilia. You're injured. Don't move. Wait for me."

Swish. The fireball quickly shrank, and finally became only the size of a finger knuckle.

His voice paused.

".Wait a moment and bring Luo Qixi to you for treatment. Thank you for your hard work. Are Madam Senis and the children injured?"

The mother was not too close, and although the sudden bright and dark figure was not clear, the way the person in front of her spoke, the timing of her appearance, and the three words "Luo Qixi" in her voice were obvious.

All of this proved that the person who came was Brother Allen.

She didn't respond, but just covered her face and cried.

Ben still felt that she had to maintain the dignified demeanor of a maid in front of the younger generation, but the opportunity for life came in such a dramatic way, and she realized that her efforts and hardships over the past year were not in vain.

Her sobs became clearer and clearer, and finally turned into completely uncontrollable sobs.

"That's great, that's great."

But precisely because of this, she failed to notice that her brother's appearance had changed.

The night was dark and the fireball flame was not bright enough.

but.
'I' found out.

To be precise, I discovered it when I was a child in my previous life.

The light licked my brother's white hair. His facial features looked fierce, but there was tenderness between his eyebrows.

He tilted his head to look at his mother's reaction, and wanted to walk over, but stopped. He looked helpless, and just sighed softly.

At the time, at the age of four, I couldn’t tell the meaning of his sigh.

But at this moment, it is so clear in the dream.

He is happy, he is also feeling sad
"The big transfer avoidance was successful. There was no failure."

Having said this so quietly, the next thing to say was about Sister Roxy.

"Hurry up and use up all your magic power to pick up Luo Qixi. I'll have to trouble her to use healing magic. There's no one else nearby. Go quickly and come back quickly."

When the words reached this point, I couldn't help but feel a little bit excited and a little bit disappointed.

The reason I was looking forward to it was that, according to the progress of the dream, the next thing I would talk to Brother Allen about was
Although the time was short, it was very warm.

I felt lost because I knew very well that this dream would end after the conversation.

Because in a moment, after Brother Alan finishes talking to me, he will leave.

This memory fragment will also be broken.

As he thought about it, just like in countless dreams, his young figure took a step back.

Yes, 'I' can't control my body.

Because this is a fragment of memory from the past, I am just in my body in that memory, and this is ultimately just a dream that restores the memory.

I shared the same vision as my younger self in my previous life, looking at my brother Alan in front of me.

She had short white hair, combed messily behind her head, sharp eyebrows and dark eyes.

It was not quite the same as the long brown hair, squinty eyes and lazy smile in my almost blurred memory.

That time and that moment.

He is a 'stranger'.

Of course it is.
In my previous life, I was just a child with unclear memories. I didn't run to Brother Alan's bedroom every chance I got, looking around and touching things, like I do in this life. Similarly, my behavior didn't lead Madam to suggest that Brother Alan's bedroom be used as a lounge for me and Sister Nolen.

Naturally, there was no chance for me to pretend to be innocent and hold on to my brother Allen when he left for the capital to return to Buena Village.

So, in my previous life, my younger self was unable to recognize him.
Aisha thought so while she was immersed in her dream.

The sound of his footsteps really caught the attention of Brother Alan. He lowered his eyes and met his gaze.

The body was filled with panic, which was the true feeling of my childhood self looking at a stranger in the dream.
However, the soul was filled with joy, a heartfelt message echoing through Aisha’s soul, which shared the same vision as her dream self.

But the next moment, Aisha's soul, who was in the dream, was stunned.

etc.
Previous life?
wrong!

I didn't fall asleep in my research room, I have traveled back to the past through time magic!
Yes, I went back in time! I am working on the [Rescue Plan].

I fell asleep, what was I doing before I went to bed?
The magic of "listening", I am using the magic of "listening"!
Magic, I have no magic left, because I overdrew it all and passed out!

why? ?

My "listening" magic has not been able to contact Melna? ? It's been a year? ? It has never been successful once!
It's already the end of November, and we were supposed to meet again on November 3rd. It's been more than a year since I resumed contact with Melna.
Why.
Could it be that Melna is dead?
I expected Melna to die. I expected it.
Because she was part of the plan to secure the "main island", the situation on the "main island" was very complicated. In fact, she encountered many unexpected troubles in completing her mission and was on the verge of death several times.
It doesn't matter that I have expectations. As long as Merna completes her mission and ensures that brother Allen rescues sister Roxy smoothly.

Then her death also matters.

But she shouldn't have died!

Why is this happening? Why? The most dangerous trip to the main island has already been completed! A year ago, they were already returning to the land by boat!
Melna shouldn't die! Melna shouldn't die! What kind of danger could cause her to die beside her brother Allen?

impossible
impossible
Brother Allen will reach land within three days.
He will go all the way to Wang Long Kingdom and be trapped in Wang Long Kingdom in the snowstorm.
No, Sister Luo Qixi is in good health this time. They should come to the Land of Strife sooner to see me.

It shouldn't be November 3rd, we should have been reunited before then.

But it's already the end of November.
What went wrong? The plan failed. It failed.
Did Brother Allen and the others encounter an accident? Did Melna die in that incident?
Brother Allen.
Is he dead too?
I failed I failed I failed I failed
As Aisha's soul suddenly awakened, the dream of countless reunions began to shake rapidly, and everything around her seemed to be trembling like water waves.

The surroundings gradually turned into dissipated light spots, and the ground was breaking apart.

When Aixia realized the current situation outside the dream, she could not calm down and maintain the dream. Her soul was upset, collapsed, and screamed.

At this moment, a pair of hands touched Aisha's head.

In the dream that was quickly shattered, Allen's dream phantom was still acting according to Aisha's memory.

He was seen holding up the fireball as big as a candle flame in his right hand and squatting down.

He tilted his head slightly to look at four-year-old Aisha, ruffling her red hair, hesitated for a moment, and spoke awkwardly.

"Aisha, don't be afraid, I'm Alan.

Do you still remember me?

Alan Boreas Graylat.

Does this name feel very unfamiliar?
Well, my appearance has changed a little now, but when you were a child, you would see me every day. Do you have any impression of me?"

Having said that, he smiled helplessly.

".I'm here to save you, don't be afraid. Look, your mother talked to me, didn't she? All the bad guys are dead."

He still looked like he was coaxing a child.

But for some reason, even though the dream was shattering rapidly, Aisha felt that Alan's figure was particularly clear in front of her.

She wanted to throw herself into Alan's arms to seek comfort from the illusion, but she could not control her body. She could only let the tears roll in her eyes and fall to the ground.

The dream is coming to an end.

Next, Brother Alan would stand up, pinch his cheeks, say hello to his mother, and leave.

No.
The dream is already broken, maybe I won't be able to wait for him to say the next word
As expected, the moment Aixia thought of this.

I saw the night in my dream change like an old faded window screen, quickly fading into pieces of white mist.

The fog swirled, engulfing the ground, the trees, and the corpses.

Finally, they came to the one-meter radius where the two people were.

Aixia's tender face was covered with mud and tears. She was waiting for her dream to be shattered so that she could wake up and face the bloody reality.

——This time, her rescue plan failed.

But at this moment.

Warm hands touched her face.

Alan narrowed his eyes and moved closer, pressing his forehead against the red-haired girl's.

Black eyes met green eyes.

"Thank you for your hard work, Aisha."

-

Aisha opened her eyes.

The smell of blood coming from the tip of my nose is so strong.

She stared blankly at the body of the mercenary she had just killed not far away, while her head was buried in the ground.

As expected, he fainted because his magic power was exhausted.

The morning frost in late autumn was chilly. After a year, the little maid, who had obviously lost weight, had mud all over her face.

Tears welled up in her eyes as she stared at the corpse in front of her for a long time. After a while, she turned her eyes to the words on the mud in front of her.

——She “failed” repeatedly. Every time after “listening”, when the thought that Alan was dead popped into her mind, she would write it down here.

In the distant mountain stream, the morning glow is emitting colorful mist in the blue sky.

Logically speaking, no matter how devastated or sad she was, Aisha had to quickly gather herself, get up, and return to 'Farming Town'.

Otherwise, when my mother wakes up, she will find out that I sneaked out at night.

However, she took a long time to come back to her senses.

Because the dream is the same thousands of times, but this time it was different.

——"Thank you for your hard work, Aisha."

This sentence does not exist in the memory fragment that constitutes the "Dream of Reunion on November 3rd".

She actually received comfort from the phantoms in her dreams.
