Abnormal Moon

"This magic eye is quite interesting. You're not very familiar with using it yet, so let me teach you properly!"

Roy remained indifferent and silent.

His eyes held a growing loathing for everything in the world, as if it were about to burst forth at any moment.

Aozaki Touko's gaze went beyond his outer garments to see the countless wounds on his body and even in his heart, and her feelings became slightly complicated.

"Aozaki Touko, what kind of creatures do you think humans are?"

Suddenly, Roy asked Aozaki Touko this question.

Orange looked surprised, then pondered for a moment before looking at him meaningfully.

"Then let me ask you a question in return: do you want to know my answer, or do you just want the answer for yourself?"

Roy was stunned for a moment before he realized what was happening.

It turned out to be the case.

He was simply filled with confusion and wanted to find an answer of his own.

He began to think after that question and answer session.

As Jenny said, as long as you keep thinking, you will definitely find the answer.

He didn't believe in such idealism, as it was as foolish as the idea that the world would eventually usher in a utopian society.

But if you have nothing to do, you might as well think about it more.

What exactly is the answer I want?

Chapter 80 Entering the Dream

Aozaki Mansion.

At Rin Tohsaka's urgent summons, everyone in the mansion hurriedly gathered in the master bedroom.

The Nakano sisters, who were entering for the first time, were startled by the gruesome bloodstains on the headboard, while Kasumigaoka Utaha and the others focused their worried gazes on Roy, who was lying on the bed.

"Indeed, as Rin Tohsaka said, there is nothing unusual on the surface."

Aozaki Touko conducted a thorough examination of Roy and pondered before drawing a conclusion.

"This is probably a dream from which one cannot escape. There are no injuries, and it was not caused by magic... The one who did this should not be a magician."

"So, is it a bad thing?"

Aozaki Aoko leaned against the door frame, her gaze sweeping unhappily over the bloodstains on the headboard before turning to Aozaki Touko.

Her expression was very serious, and anyone with eyes could see her worry for Roy.

"Given that Roy collapsed by the bedside, he probably didn't expect this situation either."

Rin Tohsaka, resting her chin on her hand, analyzed, "This means that the other party unilaterally dragged him into the dream, while Roy was passively trapped. I'm afraid their intentions are not good!"

"We need to wake him up as soon as possible."

"I will prepare the formalities immediately."

Aozaki Touko immediately nodded and said, "I'll prepare the magic to connect your dreams with Roy's. I have to maintain the magic, so you'll have to lie down and sleep here."

Rin Tohsaka nodded without hesitation.

"Shall we come too?"

Ichika Nakano was filled with doubt and surprise.

She immediately realized there was something wrong with what she said, and as if she didn't want to be implicated, she quickly added another sentence.

"Will we hold them back?"

"No, I also need you to understand the situation in the dream, since I can't go in myself."

After thinking for a moment, Aozaki Touko added another sentence to appease them.

"Normally, dreams don't affect reality. If any of you decide to become a magician, you can try entering a dream, but it might leave you with psychological trauma. It's up to you who decides to go."

The Nakano sisters, Kasumigaoka Utaha, and Hayasaka Ai huddled together and began to discuss in hushed tones.

Rin Tohsaka and Illya are definitely going in; their attitude is very firm.

"I'll keep watch."

Aozaki Aoko waved her hand in refusal.

Aozaki Touko simply nodded without saying a word.

"We both want to give it a try."

Kasumigaoka Utaha and Nakano Ichika stepped forward together.

Hayasaka Ai and Nakano Miku stood at the back, clearly not intending to get involved.

Ilya glanced at the two of them.

Miku Nakano is too timid to go in; it wouldn't make a difference.

But Hayasaka Ai is quite daring and skilled; if she wants to contribute, she can definitely go in and give it a try.

Ilya gave a soft hum.

This woman's docility seems to be nothing more than a facade.

Hayasaka Ai and Nakano Miku brought bedding from each room, and Rin Tohsaka and the other three lay down and quickly fell asleep under Aozaki Touko's hypnosis.

"Saber, you should be here, right?"

After connecting the four people's dreams with Roy's dream, Aozaki Touko suddenly spoke into the air.

"Yes."

Ms. Okita deactivated her spirit form and appeared in the room.

Nakano Miku raised her eyes, but didn't dare to speak at this moment.

“You are Roy’s servant, so it’s easier for you to enter Roy’s dream than for them. He’s entrusting this to you, as are these girls.”

"Please leave it to me, Miss Okita!"

Ms. Okita smiled brightly and, with the help of Aozaki Touko, entered a dream.

Aozaki Aoko watched all this silently, her gaze gradually shifting to Aozaki Touko, who was calmly and composedly handling the situation.

"You don't seem worried at all."

"The outcome of a dream is a battle of wills."

Aozaki Touko shrugged, her expression completely calm.

“I have great confidence in Roy’s willpower. Even if he harbors malice, he can control it effectively. I’m just worried that he might encounter other dangers.”

Since Orange said so, Aoko naturally chose to believe her.

Although she brought Roy back, among everyone present, Orange was undoubtedly the one who knew Roy best.

However, the other dangers mentioned in Orange's words caught her attention.

What other dangers are you referring to?

"Nine times out of ten, the dangers of dreams won't affect reality, but if the other side has also prepared strategies in this regard, then it's bad."

Aozaki Touko's expression turned cold.

“I can’t detect anything abnormal, which means that it’s probably not through magic, but some other method that pulled him into the dream. And if even Roy himself didn’t feel anything abnormal, this power probably didn’t come from the outside, but from inside him… It might be Angra Mainyu’s doing.”

"Would that guy let Roy, who's been entangled with him for three years, off so easily?"

…………

When she opened her eyes again, Rin Tohsaka appeared on a desolate hill.

The surrounding land was scorched black; the sky, the earth, everything was exactly the same as the real wilderness.

A short while later, Illya, Nakano Ichika, and Kasumigaoka Utaha appeared beside her.

"It's no different from reality."

Ilya surveyed her surroundings, a hint of curiosity brewing in her eyes.

"So, this dream wasn't created based on the other person, but rather on Roy's experiences?"

"Could this dream be... Roy's past?"

Rin Tohsaka couldn't help but tremble inside.

For Roy, his past is an absolute taboo subject.

The other party actually recreated Roy's past as if it were a dream. What is Roy's current state?

Has he already gone mad?

"Let's go, let's explore this world of the past!"

Ilya, however, picked up her foot with great interest.
