The Dreamer Returns Again (Dream Returner)

Chapter 14- A Certain Moonlight

Chapter 14- A Certain Moonlight

Jul 11, 2021

Earlier time on a certain world

--Mitsuka's POV--

I tried to open my eyes but they haven't yet adjusted from the unfamiliar lights. I then rubbed them as I had found them uncomfortable.

"Wh-Where is this?"

"…"

"…"

Wa-Wait why is my voice the one of a young girl? Wait why do I feel like I'm leaning on a bed?…

"…"

Wh-What's happening?

'Q-Q-Q-Queen…?'

A-A voice of a woman? I sensed it not too close to me, why is there someone other than me in Anya's apartment?

My eyes have then adjusted from the lights so I had them opened at last. And who is she calling Queen? Is that someone else close to me? Yet there's no one else in here!! I-Is she a ghost then?!

As my eyes were opened already, I then saw a ceiling that is a different one from Anya's apartment... From the looks of it, it is a luxurious one that you will only see from the ceilings of a Castle that you may find in some movies… Royal that is, to be more specific.

"…"

"…"

"…"

Wait… So this means… I WAS TRANSPORTED TO AN ANOTHER WORLD?!!

"…"

Wh-What the hell?!! Wh-Why did this suddenly happened to me?!

Out of the sudden shock, my body then quickly moves into a sit-like position in the bed…

"Wh-What the hell is thiiisss?!!"

When I had then sat, the first thing that my eyes have caught is a woman in a maid outfit… that is… crying…?

"…"

Wa-Wait why is she crying… with her eyes full of shock?!

As I then tried to look around on the room I am into, we are the only ones that are in here… The door may have been opened already, but she's the only one that I am seeing right now.

"…"

S-So it's really because of meee?! I have no choice, I should interact!!

"H-Hel-"

"SWOOSH~~"

"…"

"…"

Wh-What just happened?! Where is she?! I-Is that even running?! She just vanished!!

"Ho-How did she do that?! And what did I even do?!"

"…"

"…"

Her running away from me… and me having no one to interact with right now… I-I should just focus on my situation then…

"…"

First, earlier, I felt like sleeping when I was just sitting on a chair reading a book, and I think that I had really slept… But then, as I woke up from sleeping… I'm then in this place, in this world to be specific as rooms like these are from history, as well as me being only on my friend's apartment when I'm still on Earth…

Second, I'm none other than a young girl, I had heard my young voice earlier when I had shouted so it's basically common sen-

Wait, now that I realized it, we're the only ones that were here right?

"…"

And she had addressed someone as a Queen, right?!

"…"

"…"

Do-Don't tell me a girl this young is a Queen?!!

"…"

Wh-What the heck is this world I am now into?! I'm a Queen of a Kingdom even if being just a kid?! No I can't accept that!! How can a young girl even handle a Kingdom with her King anyways?!

"…"

"…"

Do-Don't tell me that this girl is married to a Pedophile?!

"…"

"…"

W-Wat da fuuuuukk… I-I should at least act like a woman like I was on Earth then, so I can avoid this Pedophile if there really is…

"…"

Third, if I am in this girl's body… the-then we're supposed to mix and share our memories right? So why are there no memories flowing into me right now? Why does my mind… why is my mentality still the same then…?

"…"

"…"

Wa-wait… i-if it's like that… if we didn't share this body…

"…"

Th-then that means I just killed this girl, right?

"…"

"…"

RIGHT?!

"…"

"…"

"…"

W-Wat da fuuuuukk… I just killed someone indirectlyyy… I-I'm a murdererrrr now…

"…"

"Hah…"

I then lied on the bed again.

I have no choice, I have to live in the name of this girl… I'm sorry young girl, you haven't lived long enough… If you could go back in this body of yours, then I don't care about myself anymore… Even if I can go back, or not… I don't deserve this life of yours onwards…

"You're still young yet you sleep for eternity at this early…"

Well, I haven't lived long on Earth also though…

Now, to observe what just happened earlier… There's no other meaning in that woman crying. Of course, this means that this girl was unconscious for a long now…? And because she was shocked to see the queen awaken, she had then ran towards someone associated with this girl then…?

"…"

Yeah, that's literally the most possible one.

Because I have nothing else to do right now… Because I know that I can't yet wander to other places as they may find it hard to find me… I then tried to talk with this girl, the Queen, the owner of this body to be more specific. Even if I don't know if she's still here and can hear me, it's not gonna hurt me if I'll try anyways…

"You know, young girl, I'm not that old either… In my world, I had amnesia when I was around the age of 13… And until now, I still haven't regained my memories… So if ever you might be in this body of yours again, I suppose…"

"…"

What if you go back here? What about me then? If it's like that, I should also go back to Earth, right? Or that if we changed places, we might go back again… I suppose this is a trial then…?

"…"

"Haha, not that we now anywa-"

Suddenly…

"SWOOOSH!!~~"

Gales then instantly arrived… Destroying the door as the winds were too messy all over the place just outside the room.

"…"

I then heard footsteps.

"…"

"…"

In 5 steps as what I'd heard, I then saw a girl not so young-looking… rubbing her hands with a grin on her face…

"HAH THAT SHITTY-DRAGON DOESN'T HAVE A CHANCE AGAINST MY WINDS!!"

She then said, followed by a burst of haughty-looking laughter…

And wait, what does she mean her winds? Don't tell me there's magic in this world?!

"…"

She then turns towards the room, to me respectively…

"E-Eyoulia?" She then said while looking in my eyes…

So that's the name of this girl then…? Well, I have no choice but to tell her that…

"Sorry, seems like I don't know anything at all." I have amnesia, not like I can lie hard to anyone anyways, I don't even know anything…

"…"

Yet suddenly, another one then arrived, a boy not so young-looking also, with wings in his back… Seems like this is really a fantasy world you read on books…

"Gi-Ginou…" As she then looked towards the boy… Seems like that's his name then? It's still two that I knew yet it's already rare ones you can't easily find on Earth…

Her mood then changes from a delighted one to a serious one…

"Seems like Eyoulia lost her memories, I was gonna hug her yet she might find it uncomfortable…"

"Oh, then why won't we bring her to Luna's Garden then? I'm sure that she's gonna remember things because of her memorial place…"

"…"

Luna's Garden? Memorial place? Remember things?

"…"

"…"

Well, I hope I could at least make it back to Earth then…

------------------------------------------------------------------------

A few minutes later

And they did really brought me here... The path was covered in ice, the door was covered in ice, ices are everywhere yet I can't even feel myself being cold, even a bit…

"…"

"…"

As I then observed this place, seems like there are frozen flowers on the sides, edges of this room… There are breezes, but I don't even find it cold.

But in the middle though…

"There's a hole in the middle."

"…"

I wonder, what's in there?

Out of curiosity, I then began to walk closer to the hole. But suddenly…

"SWUSH!!~~" As something then quickly float from it.

"Kyaah what the hell?!" I lost balance, I almost got hit by it as well. What the heck was that?!

"…"

It's floating not so above me… And now that I'm staring at it, it looks like a blue crescent-moon-shaped thingy…

"…"

"Wait."

Why did it suddenly float when I arrived? I understand that everything that's not possible on Earth can happen here, but why did it float only when I arrived? Well, it might be if someone arrives close to the hole… But what if this young girl is the owner of that? So there's really nothing wrong here if I'll just touch it, right? It's just, so adorable…

"…"

"…"

I'm still staring at it now... But the longer I stare at it, the more I adore it… There are no other things I'm thinking of doing right now but to…

"I want to touch it."

"…"

Well, good luck with me then…

As I had then touched it gently, nothing happened.

"Wow, its texture sure is smooth…"

But suddenly…

"SHWING!!~~" It then gave an extreme brightness, shining so much to the point that my eyes were stung, making me lose balance as well… again.

And yet again, "Wh-what the hell?! Another surprise?!"

But then, my hair, this girl's hair to be specific then began to glow…

"Wh-What?" It's like this girl's hair is sharing the light that that thing is giving off!!

How glamorous is this I'm viewing right now… Magic sure is everywhere in this place. But…

If this is hers, then touching it should do it right? Then again, why am I still me? Why am I still here?

"…"

I have nothing else to do…

"…"

"…"

Oh well, I should just stare at it then… Wondering if WHY AM I HERE?!!

"…"

------------------------------------------------------------------------

A few hours later

WHAT THE HELL IS THISSSS?!!

Some another girl with red hair visited me earlier, they said that she's someone who's related to me, she asked about what this glowing thing is, so I had just told her that it's my magic, I DON'T HAVE A CHOICEEE...

Anyways, nothing's happening until now. This girl's hair with that ice thing is still glowing like how they glowed earlier… But then again, why am I still here?

"…"

"…"

Suddenly…

(Why… Why do I feel… Hot now?)

H-huh?! A voice?! Wh-Where did that come from?!

I then looked everywhere at this place, but there's no one!!

"…"

Wait, if it's like this… this means… TELEPATHY!!

"…"

"…"

I should try then… I then closed my eyes, imagining talking with someone who owns that voice.

"Wh… Who are you?!"

(Huh? That voice of a girl... Where did that come from?! It feels like it is far, yet close.)

It worked!! But wait, this isn't telepathy at all!! We can only talk with each other when we say it through voice!! It's just, more like… our hearing expanded too far to the point where we can hear each other's voice!!

"…"

Well, at least I can interact with someone…

"…"

But wait, why do I feel…

"…"

Sentimental about it? I… I'm feeling nostalgic right now… Wait I-I don't even know anything!!

I then felt confused, too confused to the point where my head ached so much…

"…"

I'm demented!! It hurts so much!! I'm beginning to shatter!!

"…"

Ahh… This pain… I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!

It hurts so much that I was gonna bang my head on the crescent ice, but not until I heard the voice again…

(Seems like a half-baked kind of magi-)

"Huh?! What are you calling half-baked kind of magic?!" Out of the pain that I felt, I let it out by this… It's not even my magic yet I felt irrational about it…

"…"

Anyways, the short-timed headache had then faded slowly and slowly…

(Uhmm... Why didn't you respond to me for a minute now?)

"…"

"I just... I just felt something strange on you..."

I have no choice, that was too crazy… This voice of a young boy… Maybe he has something to do about this girl not regaining any memories?

"Can we see each other?"

"…"

(Okay then. I'm still in the place where ices are beginning to appear in the surroundings...)

"Just... Just continue walking forward until you can see a door... As you open the door, the first thing you should literally see is a floating crescent-like, glowing ice..."

"…"

"…"

"…"

He didn't reply…? Oh well, maybe he'll really gonna go here…

Also, can he endure the cold? Or there really is no cold and that ices in this world are just for show…?

------------------------------------------------------------------------

A minute later

"…"

I'm still staring again on this ice thing, yet with the hair of this girl, they are still steadily glowing…

"…"

Suddenly…

I had then heard cracking sounds… Of course, it's him opening the door…

"…"

Should I look?

"…"

Nah, it's better this way…

"…"

"…"

"…"

I can't take it anymore!!

"Are you the one? No, you are the one…"

"…"

I turned to him

"…"

I looked at him

"…"

I then started to walk towards him. Even if we are gonna be close to each other even if being as strangers to one another… I need to try.

"…"

He then stopped walking, I then began to realize…

His piercing eyes…

His bluish-black hair…

His small mouth, everything…

It's like I'm being drawn to adore him even though he's just a kid…

"…"

No… It's more like.

I had already adored him the first time that I saw him.

The first time, which I feel that it's not now.

"…"

It's somewhere. Somewhere in the past…

Because this just feels too strange. It feels... It feels too sentimental...

This unusual, indescribable feeling…

"…"

We're already standing close to each other...

Staring at each other's eyes, I then thought to myself. If... if I'm feeling that I saw him in the past already... then this means that this girl is gonna be back in this body, right?

Then...

If I would ju-

"Who are you?"

"..."

He doesn't know this girl?

"Who am I? I really don't know also…"

Even so… I have no choice.

"But earlier, as I woke up, they have said that I am the Queen..."

I don't own anything in here…

"Queen, Queen Eyoulia..."

Even if I'll die... I'm not this girl...

"…"

"…"

I then touched his hands…

"Wha-"

"…"

I'm then fading slowly and slowly. Like I'm being kidnapped or something...

"Goodbye."

"..."

Now that I glance at him while going down...

"..."

"..."

"..."

He feels like him...
