Will of chaos

That night I couldn’t sleep, so I spent the whole night on the same tree branch looking at the sky and the movement of those colorful clouds that I’ll never get used to. 𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘦𝑡

My family members wanted to stay close to me because they knew I wasn’t well, so I let them sleep next to me.

“(You shouldn’t feel guilty.)” (Caitlyn)

“(But I feel, during the morning some of them could have turned into a stronger version of themselves, but because of me they will have to wait.)” (I)

“(You’re immortal, some of them are too, so why worry?)” (Caitlyn)

“(I know you’ve been looking through my memories, so you must know that my bad luck almost killed us all a few times, Layla would have been dead on one of those occasions if it wasn’t for my Contracted Fairy.)” (I)

“(Need I remind you that we are in the middle of a war against one of the greatest religious powers in the world and we still have a hidden enemy doing something shady while we are distracted!?)” (I)

Suddenly my sister started talking to me, I had the impression that she didn’t like to talk when I met her for the first time, but it seems that she just doesn’t like talking when she’s in her physical body, apparently her laziness is not so strong in your mind.

After I finished speaking I felt an energy spread through my mind before my consciousness was pulled into the dream world.

When I found myself I was in front of my sister, she was eating a fruit from my world while lying in a hammock caught between two trees looking at me while standing.

“I know you’re leaving the guilt in your mind on purpose, being able to pass the test I did with you breaking the curse the way you did, I’m sure I could easily control the guilt.” (Caitlyn)

“I can, but feeling guilty in this situation is normal, I learned my emotional control to no longer be consumed by strong emotions, it wasn’t with the aim of suppressing my emotions.” (I)

“Sometimes I forget how young you are… such naivety…” (Caitlyn)

Sigh

She threw me a piece of fruit, but when I grabbed it was a slice of chicken and cheese pizza, I remember eating this pizza a lot back when I was still able to eat solid food and my dietary restrictions were looser, there was an excellent Brazilian pizzeria on the street next door.

“Still delicious…” (I)

“I would like you to ask your cooks for more pizzas of different flavors in our world, the meat of creatures in your world is not as good as the meat of monsters above Lower Catastrophe Grade.” (Caitlyn)

“I’ll talk to Caryna about it.” (I)

That Brazilian pizzeria had more than 20 flavors of pizza, come to think of it I’ve been eating a lot of meat food and sandwiches, maybe it’s good to change it up a bit.

cough cough

“Please don’t change the topic of conversation suddenly, you were calling me naive, but why?” (I)

“You are worrying about things far above your level, let others take care of that.” (Caitlyn)

“I never wanted to take care of anything, but the chance of getting involved in these things is high.” (I)

“I have a lot of lives to worry about, not just my group, but also the Dungeon people and now the Saints.” (I)

“They are my responsibility and I don’t like the level things are escalating to.” (I)

————–

I spent several hours talking to my sister in that dream while we were eating food taken from my memories, my sister was lecturing me as she talked about how I worry about the wrong things.

In the end, I asked her for advice, at first she didn’t want to answer, but in the end, she gave me the answer I wanted, it seems that I would have to go back to talk to the White Elf Queen.

—————

When I opened my eyes I realized that the Suns were starting to rise on the horizon, the dawn was beautiful with this colossal tree and the colorful clouds.

Sigh

“Time to get up…” (I)

I get up and go to my room where I find the girls sleeping hugging each other, they should be waiting for me, I kiss each one on the forehead without waking them up before going to eat.

It was in the kitchen or should I say barbecue where I found Freya and Elly talking, Natasha was sleeping drooling on the table in an unladylike pose, but my other sister was drinking coffee while she read a book.

I said hello to everyone before grabbing an entire carafe of coffee to drink, then sat down facing Elizabeth and back to Natasha in an attempt to forget what I just saw, which I assume is what everyone here is doing.

“Did you have a good talk with Caitlyn?” (Elizabeth)

“It was more her calling out my mistakes while she called me naive.” (I)

“She’s not wrong, but I like her naivety, otherwise such an interesting nation wouldn’t exist within her Dungeon.” (Elizabeth)

“But let’s talk about something more serious, I was waiting for you to talk about the Creatures of the Abyss.” (Elizabeth)

“…” (Elly)

Elizabeth looks at the World Tree Spirit who is still talking to Freya, but she also looks away at my sister, so Elizabeth looks back at me.

“I think we should ask a simple question first.” (Elizabeth)

“What are Creatures of the Abyss?” (Elizabeth)

“This may seem like a simple question, but you must understand its importance, correct?” (Elizabeth)

“Why talk about it now? Why not talk about it yesterday?” (I)

“Everyone needed to rest and a certain someone started to get depressed.” (Elizabeth)

“I thought a night for everyone to rest would be good, but today I thought I’d just talk to you.” (Elizabeth)

“You are the one who leads your people, so what to do with everything I say is up to you.” (Elizabeth)

“…” (I)

I knew that she and Natasha knew more about these Creatures of the Abyss, yesterday they said very little, which is not normal for either of them.

They knew something and didn’t tell anyone, this is starting to pique my curiosity again.
