Chapter 603: Meeting the Conditions
I actually had that thought too, but unfortunately, it was unrealistic. In this dream, Jayad was king, and beating him was treason and completely out of sync with the dream’s plot, so I couldn’t even raise a fist.
“Um, if we can satisfy Big Brother, he should wake up, right?”Via guessed and asked.
“Probably.” In my previous two dreams, one I woke up naturally, and the other I was scared awake. How would I know the conditions for waking up from a dream?
“Then I’ll try. Big Brother, please lie down.” Via said, helping Jayad lie down, then she leaned over him.
Via was very proactive. After all, she was the first girl to accept this reality, and she seemed to have had a good impression of Jayad before.
She tried to use her hands to solve the problem, and with gentle licks from her small mouth on Jayad’s body, it seemed more like a vampire tasting food to me.
“Ugh! It doesn’t seem to be working. Parul (Sister) and Lorna, come help me! Otherwise, we’ll only be able to move to the final step.” Via was exhausted and panting, but Jayad was still not satisfied, so she could only ask for our help.
“Um, is Older Brother Jayad too nervous? Try to relax, just go with the flow,” I said, leaning closer. It was probably because our analysis session made him feel pressured, and by deliberately trying to relax, he couldn’t. If he had the same mindset as when we were swimming earlier, that should have been the effect a nice dream was supposed to achieve.
Actually, watching Via’s performance made me feel a bit flustered, and my body was in a state of great longing and emptiness. I had been holding back with all my might not to get closer, while Lorna over there was also blushing and staring intently at the two of them.
“I’ll try to relax,” Jayad said with a wry smile. How could he relax when he was surrounded by three girls, one of whom was lying on top of him?
“Uh, this is a little encouragement. You can do it,” I suddenly lowered my head and gently kissed Older Brother Jayad’s forehead, a quick touch like a dragonfly skimming water before I pulled away.
This was just a little encouragement between relatives, absolutely not because I saw Via enjoying herself and wanted to taste Big Brother Jayad’s flavor, not at all!
The instant I kissed him, Jayad showed a surprised expression, followed by a smile, even bursting into laughter.
“What’s so funny?!” I asked, somewhat shy and annoyed. It was rare for me to finally work up the courage to give him a little encouragement.
“Nothing, I just think Parul is so cute,” Jayad said with a smile.
“Ugh!” My heart instantly did a little skip. Why did I feel a bit happy from such a compliment?
Just then, I felt a bit dazed, as if I was very sleepy, yet unable to fall asleep anymore, that feeling you get when you wake up after breakfast.
The surrounding scenery also began to blur, and in an instant, those well-figured Maids, the gorgeous Palace, and the soft, big bed all disappeared. Only the scent of incense seemed to still linger in the air.
I forced my eyes open and found that we were back in our original small room. The stove was still burning quietly, and the sky outside the window had already turned dim.
“Ugh! We’re out?” Jayad, Via, and Lorna all got up groggily, looking like they hadn’t slept enough yet, but also like they couldn’t lie down any longer.
“It seems so.” I looked at the golden Dream Card that had slid off Jayad’s forehead. The golden yellow color had dimmed a bit, no longer shining as brightly as it did at the start. This indicated that a lot of the card’s energy had been consumed, but it could still be used two or three more times.
I also discovered that our bodies still emitted a floral scent like perfume, and there were traces of essential oil rubbed on our skin from the dream. Coupled with the seaside dream from last night, it confirmed again that experiences in the Dream Card would affect reality.
“Parul (Sister) only needed a kiss to achieve such a good effect? Then I was working hard for nothing?” Via said, surprised and a bit frustrated. She had almost collapsed from exhaustion trying to satisfy Jayad, and was just short of offering herself, yet she wasn’t as effective as my kiss.
“It’s definitely not for that reason, you idiot. A pleasant dream isn’t one where you have to finish to be satisfied. Maybe Big Brother Jayad felt relaxed and happy, so the dream was considered complete?” I said.
However, it made it seem like my daring kiss had amused Big Brother Jayad, causing him to laugh and wake up from the pleasant dream, which made me feel complicated.
“Ugh! I, I’ll excuse myself for now!” Lorna, who had woken up, was still blushing. The little ghost instantly turned into a wisp of smoke and slipped into the separated wall, as if too ashamed to face anyone.
This was bad. I had originally wanted to help Lorna relax and adjust her mindset before her reunion with her relative tomorrow. Now that this happened, her emotions must be even more chaotic.
Should I change my original plan and not see her tomorrow? But she had been looking forward to it for so long. If I told her tomorrow that she couldn’t see her mother, she would be very disappointed and dejected.
Besides, the lesson I learned from the dream just now was that the more deliberately you tried to adjust your mindset, the more you might go against it and put pressure on yourself. So, now I was unsure what would be the right thing to do.
“Lorna, are you okay? I’m sorry, I didn’t know that Dream Card would lead to this kind of dream. I apologize if it caused you any trouble,” I said, knocking on the adjacent wall.
“No, no trouble.” Lorna poked her small head out from the wall, her cheeks still a little red, but she was much more normal than before.
“Um, I’ve never experienced anything so magical. No, actually, I haven’t left this small room for a long time. Today, I finally had a different experience, it was very stimulating, thank you!”
Lorna said this very earnestly. It was clear that she was genuinely happy, although still a bit shy. I didn’t expect the dream to be something she would like.
But it made sense. After all these years, it was rare for her to experience something different. Even with some twists and turns, it was enough to make her happy.
“However, please allow me some time to myself,” Lorna glanced shyly at Jayad and then retreated back into the wall.
“I’ll go keep her company,” Via said, also turning into a shadow and passing through the wall.
“You two, make sure to come over for dinner later,” I reminded them, as the sky was already approaching dusk, and it was time for dinner again.
“By the way, Parul, what about this card?” Jayad asked, picking up the golden Dream Card from the bed. His attitude towards this card was somewhat conflicted. On one hand, the Emperor’s Dream was indeed very satisfying, but on the other hand, it had embarrassed Parul.
