Capítulo 568: Chapter 86: Nourishing Soup with Slow Cooked Old Fire

If previously Anvis, who entered this world through the edge of a dream, was considered an accidental intruder.

Now, after acquiring the Dream Trait from that small bed, he essentially processed his own Dream Identity, transforming from a ‘Smuggler’ to a regular member of the Dream World.

In making this decision, Anvis had considered a lot.

In such dreams with special rules, having an official Dream Identity would allow him to move more freely within the Dream World.

Without this Identity, he would only be able to explore cautiously, careful not to accidentally trigger the dream’s defense mechanism.

From his recent testing, he knew the strength of this dream was beyond his resistance; the longer he maintained his Smuggler identity, the greater the risks he faced.

At this moment, as the power of the dream’s defense mechanism dissipated, the surrounding space resumed motion.

In the perspectives of Sai’er and Gray, the old witch who had been holding them suddenly stopped moving, and then a gentle force appeared around her body, quickly pulling them to one side.

Before they could understand the situation, a young man who appeared not much older than them suddenly materialized quietly in the air on one side of the room.

His short hair shone with a sun-like golden luster, and his body, as flawless as the most beautiful dream, gazing into his deep blue eyes was like seeing the radiance of Mysterious Magic shimmering within.

Lost in their gaze at Anvis, a faint impulse suddenly arose in their hearts, desiring to merge with him.

However, the next moment, as Anvis readjusted his state and reined in the naturally emanating strength of his essence, the mesmerized look in their eyes gradually dissipated.

Due to the vast difference in life levels, the Extraordinary Charm unconsciously emitted by his essence could already be considered a form of peculiar contamination to ordinary people.

If it were any later, Anvis wasn’t sure how long these two individuals could maintain their self-awareness.

Just like the warning ‘Do not stare directly at a god’, for ordinary people, Top Rank Professionals also fall under the category of ‘gods’.

“You, you are…”

As consciousness gradually returned, Gray looked at Anvis, somewhat mesmerized, and her speech was stammering.

“Did you save us? Thank you for your kindness.”

Sai’er was the first to recover, and although similarly attracted by Anvis, as an unswayed person of the same sex, the impact on him was not as immense, and he quickly pulled the girl to pay respects to Anvis.

As a child of a commoner, Sai’er knew very well that when facing Professional lords, one must act with utmost courtesy to survive longer.

“No need for such formalities, tell me how you feel?”

Anvis waved his hand, glanced at the old witch he had captured, and with a flick of his hand, threw her into the pot.

The man-made traces in this Dream Realm were strong, whether it was attracting the spirit bodies of ordinary people or simulating scenes through their memories, there were beautiful things and sources of fear.

It even considerately set up limited protective mechanisms to prevent these people from dying before they were aware of the situation. These complex dream operating mechanisms were clearly not naturally formed.

Now Anvis was here to help them complete the last piece of this ritual or test, to see what would happen.

Unaware of the truth, as they watched Anvis’s actions, but as the old witch was thrown into the pot, the weird dark green liquid that had been bubbling inside the pot suddenly boiled violently like oil in a hot pan splashed with a ladle of water.

The originally green liquid quickly turned into a pitch-black color like the night, and a wisp of black smoke spilled out of the pot.

“Ah!”

At the same time, a white Dream Realm light suddenly emerged from Sai’er and Gray. They both unconsciously clutched their heads and cried out due to a special itchy sensation.

Sometime later, after packing the pot with that wisp of smoke, Anvis listened to the fully recovered pair recount information about themselves.

Just as he had guessed, they indeed came from the Federation and the Empire respectively. However, a discrepancy was that their physical bodies in reality were already dead, and only their fading spiritual bodies were captured by this Dream.

Before Anvis threw the old witch into the pot, outside of still remembering their names, they had forgotten all other information related to their identities.

It was only just now, after the first trial belonging to the two was over, that their memories were fully unsealed. Moreover, they received additional hints from the Dream, gaining a general understanding of this Dream World.

This is the Inheritance Land left by a powerful Dream Spellcaster, who, before attempting to break through to Legend, left his legacy in the Deep Dream World.

So that in case his breakthrough failed, his lifelong acquired precious Magical knowledge would not be completely lost.

Those eligible to enter, generally, are the spiritual bodies of recently deceased individuals.

As long as they pass all trials in the Dream, they would be able to use the power of the Dream World to reconstruct their bodies and return to the Main Material World.

It is said that at the deepest part of the inheritance, this Spellcaster even left the direction of breaking through the Legend.

“I come from the Leka Kingdom of the Federation. Due to continuous wars, a band of thieves attacked my home. While escaping, I got separated from my family and had no choice but to flee into a strange forest that recently appeared and was rumored to be haunted, and then I somehow died.”

“I am from the Paravani Province of the Empire. Recently it’s been too cold, and there was no food left at home. Hungry and cold, I went to look for food in the old city area houses.

About half a year ago, for some reason, suddenly no one lived there anymore. When I opened a wardrobe, I seemed to hear some noise inside, and after that, I don’t remember anything.”

In the end, Sai’er and Gray recounted to Anvis their last memories before they died separately.

“Alright, I roughly understand the situation now. Thank you for your cooperation.”

Nodding, Anvis casually left them two Magic Ornaments for self-protection, and then bade farewell to the two.

Through the description of the two children, as well as his observation of the Sai’er and Gray’s existential forms, he gained a lot of important information.

The manner in which the two children entered this place was very likely related to the ‘Overlap Area’ that had recently appeared.

This phenomenon, after he stopped the descent of the Master of Dreams [Ma’elim], began to appear unheralded and irregularly throughout the Yar Continent, containing various inexplicable and bizarre Dream phenomena, posing a threat even to Official Professionals.

Simultaneously, the two might not be aware, but Anvis could sense a unique Dream Trait within them.

This isn’t the power of this Dream, but rather the influence from the remnants of Ma’elim’s projection.

Looking at it now, that event could be regarded as an unusually large-scale peculiar adventure, from which countless individuals luckily gained Dream Talents.

After leaving the two at the Candy House, Anvis gazed at the large pot in front of him, filled with the old witch’s beautiful soup, and fell into deep thought.

Should he also participate in this trial?

If he chooses to participate, what Identity should he assume for himself?
