Everyone Said They Were My Lover in a Dream - Everyone Said They Were My Lover in a Dream chapter 47

Lord of the Elementals, Vissus (1)

One week after the attack on the Academy by the organization.

Vissus dragged his tired body into his room and collapsed onto the bed.

“Ha… I’m tired.”

After the battle with Diavel, Vissus had never had a single dream, but he felt an immense exhaustion.

Clearly, as he regained the memories and experiences of his past life, his body became stronger and more experienced.

On the contrary, for some reason, each day became more tiring for him.

“It would be nice if we all got along well.”

When there were only Artoria and Sophia, their battles of will alone were exhausting enough, but with Lavinia added to the mix, it became difficult for him to handle the three women as a secretary.

Even with just them, in a complex situation, the protagonist of [Eclipse], who had recovered memories from a previous life, Genesis, was gradually becoming strange as well.

If the secretary had responded decisively, the three women probably wouldn’t have engaged in unnecessary battles of will, but the secretary himself was also going through a process of merging various memories from his previous life, causing confusion in his mind and making it difficult for him to respond properly.

“I don’t know.”

In [Eclipse], the heroines didn’t engage in such battles of will or guard against each other like that.

I don’t know how to handle this.

It was the moment when Vissers let out a sigh while lying on the bed.

“You’re still clueless, just like before.”

“…Lucifer?”

A familiar voice came from the bracelet on Vissers’ right hand.

“Except for intelligence in battle, you’re completely stupid. That hasn’t changed at all.”

“You’re spewing out an incredible amount of sarcasm so casually?”

“Hmph. You should try putting yourself in the shoes of those around you. It’s frustrating even for an enemy.”

You have no idea how clueless you are, caught up in the topic of my previous life.

I’m not that clueless, you know.

…Come to think of it, in my previous life, as a warrior, I really was clueless. I didn’t even realize that Genesis was actually a woman dressed as a man.

Vissers, who couldn’t imagine that his own intuition would be similar because his previous self was just like him, didn’t think about that.

“You seem to have gotten too comfortable these days.”

Ugh.

Vissers gathered his divine power with his left hand.

“Now, wait just a moment! Th-there’s just one thing!”

Crash!

Ignoring the unconscious Lusifer, Vissus covered him with a blanket.

“Come to think of it, Cladia did say she became the Empress.”

In [Eclipse], Cladia did manage to defeat the Crown Prince, her rival, and seize the throne.

However, that should have happened much later, in the future from this point, when the Empire-related episodes were still ongoing.

And yet, Cladia has already ascended to the throne.

“It’s too soon….”

Even though the reality has already diverged significantly from what was seen in [Eclipse], this development is too abrupt.

It must be because she possesses the memories from her past life, like Sophiana Artoria.

If we consider the way she clashed with Sophia in the Headmaster’s office, it wouldn’t be strange to think that she has reached a level beyond that of an Archmage.

If Cladia’s proficiency, charisma, and everything else that she possesses at that level of magical prowess were combined, it would be quite possible.

Wait a moment.

Vissus recalled the encounter he had with Cladia not too long ago.

The words Cladia had said in the restroom at that time.

She had told him to become her Prime Minister.

At that time, my mind was filled with thoughts of preventing the apocalypse, so I suppose it was just to buy some time….

“If Your Majesty finishes that task. And if I have regained the skills befitting Your Majesty’s Prime Minister. Would Your Majesty be able to propose it again at that time?”

Yes.

That’s what I said.

The response that Cladia gave at that moment…

“Fine. I’ll take care of it within six months.”

A statement that she would become the emperor and come back within six months.

…Wait, did she say six months?!

It hasn’t even been a month yet!

Even if she’s capable, she should be reasonably capable! How can she swallow up the Empire, the strongest country on the continent, in just a few weeks!

Viceus wrapped his head around and clenched his fist.

He said he would come back for me.

Instead of the prime minister of the Empire. As the second-in-command of the vast and powerful Empire…

A position that no one can dare to ignore. The highest position that everyone looks up to.

If he doesn’t get pushed out of the power struggle, he can enjoy that overflowing power until he dies.

But Viceus was not attracted to Cladia’s proposal.

If he were the Viceus who was not aware of his past lives, he might have accepted it.

Previously, the affairs of the “organization” were unresolved and in a chaotic state, so he rejected the proposal. But now, his personal power has reached a certain level, and with Diable cornered, it didn’t seem so difficult to prevent the destruction of the continent by mobilizing the power and connections of the Empire.

If his initial goal was merely survival, he would have accepted Cladia’s proposal and become her prime minister without hesitation.

But the current him is a mixture of his various past selves.

Arthoria, Sophia, Robina, they all approached him in a special way, so working for Cladia was not an attractive option.

“Above all, I don’t have any memories of being with Cladia.”

He recalled Arthoria, Sophia, Robina, Belle, and Genesis through dreams, but he still couldn’t dream about Cladia.

To him, Cladia could only feel unfamiliar.

“I don’t know. Let’s just go to sleep for now.”

Secretary Su closed his eyes.

Thinking that Cladia would take care of whatever it was about the Academy tomorrow.

Thump

“Ahh! Run away!”

“H-Help me!”

Thud

In the next moment, Secretary Su found himself standing amidst a crowd of people wearing the Academy’s uniforms.

Is this a dream?

Secretary Su had entered a dream where he was recovering the experiences of his past life without realizing it.

I haven’t dreamt for the past week…

Maybe because it’s been a while since I had a dream, it felt even more delightful.

Judging from the majority of people passing by wearing the Academy’s uniform, this must be the Lichten Academy.

Does that mean it’s related to Sofia’s past life?

First, Secretary Su wanted to understand the environment he was in.

“Ahhhhh!”

“I can’t die here!”

Countless people around Secretary Su were running in the direction he was looking, as if they were fleeing from something behind him.

Thud

The ground shook.

I could sense something heavy approaching in my direction.

“What on earth is it?”

Virus turned slowly.

As Virus turned around.

“Woahhhhh!”

Looking at the people, I could see a gigantic monster with two heads roaring loudly.

With a height easily surpassing three floors of a building, it had a massive size and stature.

Its disgusting stench of carnage and a strong muscular build that could be felt from afar.

And the sheer force it exhibited, tearing apart and destroying the surrounding terrain as it walked.

“Why is an Ogre inside the Academy….”

An extremely rare high-level monster, an Ogre. And not just any Ogre, but a Twin-Headed Ogre, the highest-ranking monster with two heads.

Virus’s body froze the moment it saw the Ogre.

Virus realized that his current body had almost no practical combat experience, unlike his previous bodies.

“Move!”

Thud, thud.

The Ogre discovered Virus standing still and laughed wickedly.

Although it was planning to devour all the small ones here anyway, it found it convenient to feast on someone who was just standing there.

Thud, thud.

The Ogre approached right in front of Virus and grabbed him with its disgustingly smelly, giant hand.

And then, he opened his mouth and took the secretary’s body into his own mouth.

“Move!”

If it were his main body, the secretary could easily tear the ogre apart with his own power. But his current physical state was frozen in fear and unable to move.

Pang!

A small spirit appeared next to the secretary’s body.

-Beep!

The spirit, in the form of a little girl, tried to release the ogre’s hand from her master’s grasp with her short arms, but without her master’s support, there was nothing she could do.

-Beep!

The smell of the ogre’s breath reached the secretary’s face.

The disgusting smell of death created through countless lives.

“What is this? Experiencing death from a past life like this?”

-Beep!

The spirit girl screamed,

And just before the ogre’s sharp teeth could tear the secretary’s body apart.

Kwaaang!

An explosion occurred on the ogre’s back.

“Uwoah….”

The ogre grimaced in pain and dropped the secretary.

“Uwat!”

Freed from the ogre’s grip, the secretary collapsed on the ground, clutching his buttocks.

“Ooohhh!”

The grimacing ogre lowered both hands towards Vissus, but…

Kwang

Someone cast a shield spell in front of Vissus, blocking the ogre’s attack.

“There. Are you okay?”

Cladia, with her radiant hair fluttering, threw the ogre away and turned to Vissus.
