Chapter 390 - 213 Construct Double Arms_2
Then, he routinely made two rounds through the surroundings of everyone’s Dream Realms. He eliminated those Dream Realm monsters that didn’t know their place. He wondered if it was just his imagination; somehow, the surroundings seemed a tiny bit livelier. At least it wasn’t like the previous Dream Realm environments, where days could pass without encountering a single Dream Realm monster. Sometimes, it was even difficult to see the Flying Birds within the Dream Realm. Now, nearly every day, they could see one or two creatures trying to break through their Dream Bubbles.
He entered Lucilia’s Dream Realm, woke her, and then entered the Dream Realm’s library by himself.
As he was looking at the books, Alka suddenly had a thought. What if Lucilia eventually gets used to her doll form, creates a set of combat techniques suitable for herself, and then doesn’t want to awaken in the Dream Realm? He couldn’t just keep coming to wake Lucilia solely to enter the library and read. In that case, Lucilia wouldn’t get proper rest. Is there any way around this?
His train of thought was interrupted, and he refocused his attention on the book in his hands. I’ll think about it later, he mused. Right now, I don’t have any ideas, nor the ability to do anything about it.
「When Alka woke up, it was already the next day.」
After washing up and having breakfast, he joined everyone on deck to watch Chadite practice her Treasure’s abilities. He also offered some advice based on his experience.
With this Treasure, Chadite finally had a decent means of long-range attack. During the day, she could gather sunlight, condensing it into a scorching ray to shoot out. At night, or when there was no sunlight, she would use the Treasure’s ability to amplify her Silver Light Spell. She would gather the amplified Silver Light in her hands and then unleash it with a palm strike, enabling medium to long-range attacks.
At this point, Alka began to understand the Ring of Light’s operating mechanism a little. The light it could generate on its own was just very ordinary, soft light, possessing no special attributes. And this so-called spontaneously generated light was actually drawn from the surroundings. Even when concentrated, it still couldn’t cause harm. However, it was different when other, more unique sources of light were present. If sunlight was available, these heat-carrying rays could be gathered, providing significant assistance in combat.
Alka analyzed this using basic knowledge from his previous life. Could this thing control ultraviolet and infrared rays? After all, isn’t the ability to control sunlight to achieve such effects due to these two types of radiation? He didn’t know if Chadite could control them.
They also experimented with firelight; it similarly carried heat and could quickly ignite things upon impact. Unlike the firelight, the manipulated sunlight possessed strong penetrative properties. This seemed inexplicably magical. Such penetrative power was considered an Energy Attack because its scorching effect could easily pierce both physical and Magic Shields. It counted as a very effective form of attack.
He just wondered what differences moonlight might have.
It truly was as Chadite had said: controlling light, amplifying light. Essentially, it couldn’t produce light from nothing.
As Chadite became more proficient with this ability, she should be able to utilize more techniques.
Time passed quickly.
Soon, it was approaching noon. The vast, cloudless sky allowed the sun to beat down fiercely upon them from directly overhead. The entire ship couldn’t help but become oppressively hot.
Seeing the sunlight beating directly down on them, Chadite waved her hand, and the sunlight shining on the Sound of Dawn immediately shifted. It was as if a Shield had been draped over the Sound of Dawn, plunging the entire ship into dimness. The only illumination came from the ambient light of the surroundings. But undeniably, it instantly became cooler.
"He’s awake!" Er’s shout came from below.
Alka turned and tilted his head, and the group immediately headed below. Pororo, however, did not follow. Pororo was keeping watch in the lookout post.
When they arrived at the infirmary, Simon was already sitting up, leaning against the headboard. He was curiously observing the tiny Er beside him, who was only about thirty centimeters tall, and seemed quite intrigued by such a small being. As they entered, they happened to hear Simon asking something.
"You seem... not to be a truly natural creature, do you? You have a somewhat puppet-like structure."
Er turned its head to look at him but offered no reply, instead inching slightly farther away. Hearing the door open and seeing the group enter, Er quickly shot out silk threads and swung over to land on Chadite’s shoulder.
At this, Simon’s attention also shifted to Alka and the others. Looking at them, a smile appeared on Simon’s face, and he said, "It was you who saved me, wasn’t it? Thank you, thank you all."
Hearing Simon’s words, Chadite looked bewildered. "What is he saying?"
"It’s another language. Lucilia knows it, and I’ve learned a little too," Alka replied, turning his head. He then looked at Simon and said, "You’re in poor condition right now. You should rest well."
"Excuse me," Simon began, "about the one who appeared in my dream before..."
Upon hearing Simon’s words, a Mirror Surface instantly formed on Alka’s face, then appeared to shatter.
Seeing this, Simon nodded in sudden realization. So, the Magician from my dream was this young man before me!
"That was me," Alka said. "On that island, besides you, there wasn’t a single living person left."
