"...Is mana really that important?" (Iris)Iris looked at Dream, who had stopped looking at the computer."...Do you remember after our fight in the forest, when I told you that I was one of the people who gave up? And during the talk with my mom, when she said that it was suicide? Well, it was. Because I had lost hope on that world, and because I longed for knowledge that I could never get, I decided that death was my best option. Death was the only release, the only way out that I could see. And I wasn't the only one. There are many people who lose hope, and even more who choose to ignore it and distract themselves with entertainment.Mana, however, signifies a greater calling. Mana is the way out of the cage. It shows us that we can become powerful by our own strength. And most of all, it lets us see a higher realm of existence. Now, everyone knows that that godhood isn't just some made-up concept in religion. Now, everything is truly possible. Even if I were the one choosing if Ea

Dream walked in and looked around."It's not as big as I thought." (Dream)"Well what you see now is only a bit. There's a library off to the side. There's also a storage room where I keep my materials. There's a forgery and crafting area over there where I make things. This area we're in is where I do most of my writing and theory work." (Graff)Graff pointed out the doors to other rooms as he explained what they were. In the room they were in, Dream could see a big table with many papers on it, along with boards on the walls, like chalkboards. These chalkboards had many drawings and writings on them, which Dream didn't know the purpose of.Graff spoke after noticing Dream's curiosity."Alright! Our purpose today is not explaining the crap on the walls, but the knowledge in your head, Dream. I want to see if it's really as good as I think. Let's sit down first." (Graff)Graff led everyone to a table and sat."Now, If I'm going to explain my knowledge to you, there are things you need

Dream sat down on a box with the titanium chunk in his hand."Alright, we need to figure out the language of mana. That guy on the forum said that mana works by giving parameters, like a program. He called it a sequence. But this isn't as simple as electricity in a circuit. And correct me if I'm wrong, but it doesn't seem like mana is as simple as being a regular substance either. I'm not even sure if mana is 3-dimensional since it has such bizarre properties, not that I know what they are."[Mana is 3 dimensional. I don't have any doubts about that. I believe that the soul, however, doesn't operate in the 3rd dimension, but the 4th.]"If the soul doesn't operate on the 3rd dimension, then how does it control the body?"[Well there's one thing that you can't misunderstand. It's that just because something is located in the 4th dimension, doesn't mean it can't be in the 3rd at the same time. Just like how things in the 3rd dimension can be in the 2nd dimension. This, however, means tha

[I'm Dream's helper, and when we make the connection, I'll be able to help you guys as well, with things like magic, strategy, and communication. But first, Luna, I'll need permission from you to scan your skill [Bestow].]'Oh, that's fine.' (Luna)[Great. Activating [Emulator]...]Sophia went through the Familiar connection to Luna and arrived at the skill signature for [Bestow]. She then began using [Emulator] and collected its information.The process only took a couple of minutes before she came back.[Emulation complete. Thank you, Luna. I will now be able to assist you and Iris in anything you need, whenever you wish. Dream has also expressed his wish for our communication, so I hope we can all become friends.]'I would like that too.' (Luna)'As would I. Hey Sophia, how much do you know about Dream?' (Iris)[Absolutely everything. What would you like to-]'Okay! I like the quick bonding, but not right now.'Dream intervened before the conversation took an irreversible turn.'Lu

"That's a neat weapon you have there. Do you know how to use spears?" (Dream)"Ya. I'm a healer, but we still need to know how to keep ourselves alive. And since we use staffs, we also practice the spear since they're similar." (Lory)"Very cool. I never would have thought of something like that."Lory smiled brightly at Dream as he thought about how intuitive it was."Hey Dream, what did you think of those rats? Could you guys take them?" (Elisa)Elisa spoke as she walked up to him. Dream turned and could see Ryan cutting off the hands of the rats."We could. Though if the groups got bigger, we would need to be careful." (Dream)"Well if you're confident, why don't you guys take the lead on the next group. If there's four, we'll take care of one, leaving the rest to you guys.""That works. Just let us know which one you got.""Sure." (Elisa)"Yay! I'm excited to see you fight." (Lory)"I'm also interested in your archery." (Carla)"She speaks!" (Dream)Dream put on an astonished face
