Roland could not help but fall silent.
That's right. For him, the five senses were just an inherent attribute of the world, not something rare. He also regarded the Dream World as a fictitious fantasy land because it was weird and incomplete. However, for Phyllis, this was the perfect world she had been dreaming of. The significance of this world was probably no less than that of a lamp suddenly appearing in a pitch-black abyss. No matter what kind of difficulties and obstacles she would encounter, she would still move forward in the direction of the light regardless of her own safety.
If her intrusion was really just an accident and she could not enter again once she left, what she would lose would probably be far beyond his imagination. It was too cruel for Phyllis to come to the long-lost perfect world, only to relive the pain in the end.
Roland sighed softly and reached out to pull her up. "I see. Let's do the test tonight."
Two days in the Dream World was almost equivalent to a whole night in the real world. It was not a big problem to postpone the test to the evening, but she could use this time to enjoy this new world.
"Thank you, Your Majesty..." Phyllis stood up and raised her elbow to her chest to salute him again, which was a special etiquette that members of the Union performed to their superiors. "Now I somewhat understand why you could win the support of the Witch Union."
Just when Roland was about to say something, the bedroom door was suddenly knocked on and Zero's voice came from outside. "I've made tea. Do you want some?"
"This girl... what the hell is she doing?" According to her usual habits, she would definitely not want to see me for most of the day after being provoked, let alone boil water to make tea. What was she doing by constantly knocking on the door and forcing me to drink tea?
He frowned and opened the door, but the little girl's hands were empty. She first glared at Roland, then poked her head in and looked at Phyllis from head to toe, her eyes full of vigilance.
"Hey, where's the tea?"
"It's in the living room. Go and get it yourself." Zero snorted coldly. "By the way, don't make any strange sounds and disturb me from doing my homework!" Then she swung her hands and left.
"Uh... so that's the reason?" Roland didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he shook his head. 'Kids nowadays know too much. If it were me in the past, I wouldn't have thought about it in such a strange way.' They would only ask him where he was feeling unwell and if he needed to go to the hospital.
Closing the door again, he shrugged and said, "Don't worry about it. Children born after 2000 are like this. After all, times have changed."
"Millennials? Different times? "Phyllis looked confused." Her relationship with you is …? "
"I'm just a lodger." Roland waved his hand and did not elaborate. Although he told her about the Battle of Souls between him and the Pope, he did not tell her that this kid was once the Pure Witch Pope. Zero had been reborn in the Dream World and had nothing to do with her past, so there was no need to connect her with the other world.
"I understand." She bit her lip. "Then … please continue. You can use other methods as well. This time, I will try my best not to make any noise."
Roland could not help but hold his forehead.
You're addicted to it! There are so many fun places in this world. Why are you so fixated on pain?
"Ahem." He cleared his throat. "Since we're in the Dream World, I'll take you out for a walk."
"Can I … go out like this?" Phyllis asked in surprise. "This place is obviously different from Neverwinter. Won't it bring you trouble if others notice me?"
It turned out that she had not not noticed the dramatic changes in the surrounding environment. She probably thought that this place was the same as the Four Kingdoms that discriminated against witches. People who were obviously different would be discriminated against and persecuted.
"If you're really a witch, you'll only be a star in the Dream World." Roland laughed. "I said, this is a new world. It's not harmful to be unique. Instead, you'll be sought after — provided that you don't violate the law."
"Is, is that so?" Phyllis suddenly looked excited. "There are taverns and hotels outside, right?"
"Do you want to taste the wine and food?" Roland raised the corner of his mouth. "Of course, and there are more kinds than you can imagine."
In other words, she had planned to stay in the room for the whole day and constantly savor the taste of pain. Although the lethality of torturing a gentle and gentle woman's face was extraordinary, he always felt that it would pull him into a highway of no return.
"That was close. I didn't make a big mistake."
"By the way, since you've changed back to your original body, can you still use magic power?"
"Ah … if you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten about it." Phyllis exclaimed in a low voice. "Please let me have a try."
She closed her eyes and held her breath, but there was no movement for a long time.
"Can't I?"
"No … I can feel the Magic Cyclone. It's just that I haven't used it for a long time, so I'm not used to it," she said with some embarrassment. "Please wait a moment … it'll come out soon."
As soon as she finished speaking, two black claws rushed out from her back and raised to both sides of her shoulders. At first glance, it looked like a pair of ghost hands or a pair of wings without feathers.
Roland touched his chin and asked, "What's this …"
"I call it the Blade Claw." Phyllis let out a long breath. "The claws can be extended and retracted freely within the range of my ability, and they're much sharper than ordinary ironware. When I was fighting with the Army of Demons, they could protect me from sneak attacks from the rear, and they could also fight with me against powerful Senior Demons. "
"So you used to be a combat witch."
"Yes, in the Taquila era, I served as the guard of the Three Chiefs." She paused. "But there's one thing I don't quite understand. According to the research of the Quest Society, magic power should come from the Bloody Moon. Why does magic power also exist in the Dream World?"
"Although this world was built according to my will, I'm afraid it's also inseparable from the Bloody Moon. I'm still trying to figure it out. Let's talk about it later when we stroll around. " Roland spread out his hands and said, "Since we've decided to postpone the test to the evening, let's not waste time now."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Phyllis said excitedly.
"Since it's Saturday, I'll take Zero with me. Otherwise, I don't know how long this little devil will be angry."
"Also, don't call me Your Majesty in the dream. Just call me Roland. There's no king in this era."
"Then … please forgive my rudeness."
