"I don't want to die..."
Ainars's eyes were blank; she had grown accustomed to the excruciating pain in her soul.
She could no longer think of how she could escape the clutches of that terrifying monster.
Like a walking corpse, she followed Mil and the others, completing tasks, returning, and encountering monsters.
"Roar!"
“Ainars, I know…”
The eighth time.
"Roar!"
“Ainars, I know…”
Ninth time.
"Roar!"
“Ainars, I know…”
tenth time.
Enarse was completely numb.
It was as if all sounds had left her.
The incessantly talking Mil's body appeared as a double image in front of him.
Then let your soul perish.
By then, I'll be free, won't I?
Enarse thought to herself.
She silently followed Mir and the others, listening to Mir mention Celia twice in three sentences.
An idea came to her.
If Celia comes along...
No, I'm not coming. That monster is terrifying; Celia can't defeat it.
Enarse suppressed the thought.
The mission was successfully completed, and after a good rest, we are ready to return.
But just then, an unexpected figure suddenly appeared and punched Mir right away!
Ainas suddenly raised her head and looked at the newcomer in shock.
“Celia?!”
After punching Mir, Enarse saw Celia walking towards her, stopping in front of her, and smiling at her.
"Hello, Enarse, I'm here to take you home. Come with me."
The dim world seemed to brighten up.
My cold heart started beating again.
But the thought of that terrifying monster calmed her down.
"Celia, you must leave quickly! There's a terrifying monster in this forest, and we... can't defeat it."
“There’s nothing we can’t beat.” Celia reached out and patted her back, comforting her, “Don’t worry, I’m here, I’ll make sure you get out of here safely.”
Celia already knows the details of this dream.
This dream world doesn't evolve indefinitely; it merely extracts a segment of memory and plays it repeatedly. The difference is that Enarse might retain the impression of each memory playback during the repetition, as if trapped in a time loop.
From Enarse's expression, Celia confirmed that she had indeed retained all the memories after the memory reappeared.
If that's the case, then things are much easier.
All we need to do is defeat the terrifying monster that Enarse mentioned.
Celia raised her hand, preparing to release the puppet, but suddenly paused, realizing that she was in the mental space and that she was just a wisp of consciousness.
broken.
There is no way to use puppets or spells.
Oh no, we're going to be trapped here.
Just as Celia was troubled, Ross's soft laughter suddenly came from the sky.
Immediately afterwards, Celia felt as if the magic had returned to her 'body'.
It's Lord Ross!
Celia's tense heart relaxed.
She raised her hand and released the puppet using a puppet storage spell.
“Let’s go, Enarse, take me to meet the monster you’re talking about.”
Enarse watched this scene in shock.
"Celia, you... you've reached Tier 2?!"
"Ah."
A soft "hmm" gradually calmed Aina's tense mood.
Hope has been rekindled.
If it's at level two, it should be able to defeat that terrifying monster, right?
Enarse felt a glimmer of hope.
She didn't even notice why the other three people weren't saying anything at this moment, as if they had become nameless NPCs on the roadside.
Her steps quickened again, and she led Celia forward. Soon, accompanied by a roar, a huge serpent monster appeared in front of them, blocking their path.
Two more chapters to come.
This book will not feature neodymium copper.
Chapter 100 Doubts
"Is this the monster?"
Celia turned to Aenars to confirm.
Enarse nodded.
"If I remember correctly, this monster should be called Dark Nightmare."
Celia searched her mind for information about this snake that looked like it had four legs.
She remembered that it was mentioned in her pharmacy textbook that these were second- to third-tier monsters whose attack methods were devouring and intimidation. Intimidation was used when capturing prey to destroy the target's mind, thus rendering the prey unable to resist.
It appears in pharmacy textbooks because its saliva is a valuable magical material, and its skin can be used to make scrolls.
"These kinds of monsters only live in dark and damp areas when they are wild. This forest is near Shining City, so they shouldn't be found here, right?"
Celia was somewhat puzzled.
But there was no time to think about it, because the monster charged at them.
“Celia, this monster is terrifying, it will…”
"Don't worry, I know everything."
Celia manipulated the puppet to rush forward, while turning back to smile at Enarse.
Enarse's lips moved, and she manipulated her puppet to charge towards the monster.
"let me help you……"
"No need, your puppet will get in the way."
Celia pointed at Enars's puppet, but the mage's hand blocked it.
"Just watch my performance."
The girl smiled.
A mere Tier 2 monster? Hmph, I can kill it with a flick of my wrist!
She was meek and submissive to Tier 3 Celia, but she launched a powerful attack against Tier 2!
As the Dark Nightmare charged and attacked, Celia's puppet clenched its fist and punched the Dark Nightmare in the head.
Immediately afterwards, the puppet leaped into the air, rapidly gathering ice vapor in its hands. A spear formed from the spell [Ice Spike] quickly took shape and stabbed fiercely into the Dark Nightmare's forehead!
Hiss!
The spear pierced through the dark nightmare that Ainars thought was invincible, pinning it firmly to the ground.
Its body struggled, but to no avail; it still could not break free.
Even until its complete death, only nerve reflexes kept its limbs twitching.
Not long after, his limbs stopped moving, and his body went limp.
The dead can no longer die.
Celia clapped her hands, and the puppet transformed into a stream of light, which she then stored in her storage space.
She turned to look at the stunned Ainars beside her and smiled, "Your nightmare is over, Ainars, it's time to leave."
At this moment, she was like an angel descending to earth.
Ainars nodded emphatically.
Everything around slowly turned into tiny particles of light and dissipated.
In reality, Celia opened her eyes and sat up.
Before he could even check on Enarse's condition, Mil's boastful voice came from beside him, "Celia, you know what I did..."
"Mir!"
Northon's stern voice interrupted Mil's words. He gave Mil a cold look, then turned to Celia, "How is Ainars, Miss Celia?"
Celia glanced at Mir thoughtfully, then nodded and said, "Her mental blockade should be lifted."
As she spoke, she called out to Ross in her heart—
"Lord Ross, are you there?"
"What's the matter?"
“Ainars’s dream world is so strange. If it’s based on memories, it means it happened. They really did encounter monsters that like damp environments in the dry forest near Shining City. That’s so strange.”
"What do you think it is?" Ross asked, amused.
"This Dark Nightmare must have been deliberately placed here. When I fought it, I felt that although it was ferocious, it didn't have the keen sense of danger that wild monsters have, and it was also clumsy in combat."
Ross remained silent. Celia paused, got off the bed, went to the side, handed Enarse to the two practicing priests, and then continued her mental analysis:
"I suspect that those two damned nobles, Norsen and Mil, set a trap for Ainars. They tricked her into going on a commission with them under the pretense that Ainars owed me money and wanted to pay it back. Then they arranged for the Dark Nightmare to ambush them and use its properties to seal her soul, making her keep looping that memory."
What were their motives?
"The motive... I don't know, but it's definitely related to me."
When Celia thought of how Mir kept mentioning her in Ainars's dream, she got goosebumps.
"Could it be that Mir wanted me to hear those disgusting things he said?"
Thinking about it carefully, this does indeed fit the behavior of that idiot Mil.
In particular, he took credit for himself the moment he woke up.
This is too obvious.
but……
Celia sensed that things weren't that simple.
Because one person was added to this group.
