It is very difficult for one to know that one is dreaming, and once you recall that you are lying in bed at the moment, and your spirit is in a dream.

And at such a time, it is easy to be cranky, and the scene of the whole dream jumps and changes, which may be related to reality, or it may be an illusionary world where many places in your mind are combined.

Can it be ......

Sean knew that he was in a dream, and that nothing in the dream was in his control.

It's more like it's happening in reality, and I'm just the person watching from the 'screen' next to me!

The lord of time and space, the power given by Yog Sotos will let him get lost in time every time, even in life, Sean sometimes feels that he has already done something, but when he looks down, he realizes that he has not started to do it.

This is true for writing letters, taking notes, including the planning notes of Oro City......

There is also daily work, and I have obviously read the report and signed it to agree or reject it, but when I came back to my senses, I found that I had not signed it.

Fortunately, I have a fragment of what I have read in my memory, so I can sign it directly...... Every time it came to this, Sean had to take a second look at the time display outside.

Because only by confirming that time is moving in the general environment, then there can be no mistake.

For this reason, the desks were moved closer to the windows......

But even if you can grasp it during the day, the images you occasionally see in your sleep at night are completely out of your control, and after the experience you have seen before, you can judge that what you see may be an event at a certain point in time, or a story that is happening somewhere in the world.

And it's either related to me, or it's a problem I've been thinking about and struggling with recently, so it will appear in my dreams......

And this time, it should be the same.

Sean looked out the window into the huge, completely unfamiliar room, with a house on the heights.

Below, you can see a whole large complex of buildings, which is bigger and more prosperous than your own city!

Where is this?

A certain big city?!!

It's still over there in the imperial capital.

Sean is also a person who has been to a big city like Rietis, but it is still much worse than what he sees in front of him, and it is estimated that only the imperial capital has this kind of prosperity.

The air is full of floating airships, and there are bicycles on the wide road on the ground?

Hiss~

Awesome.

This is where mechanical wheels are used.

The whole road has become a lot cleaner and not as potholed as its own city...... It's flatter overall.

This place is probably a very rich city, but why did you come here?

Sean looked around, there were different things happening in the world all the time, and it was impossible for him to know them all...... I had already felt that unless I could have an incomprehensible unknown material body like the Lord of Time, how could a human brain know everything in the world in a short period of time.

So this must have something to do with what I've been thinking about lately.

Walk around the corner and continue onwards.

Sean noticed a lot of people dressed in beautiful clothes, but guarding the door of a certain room like a servant.

Walk in......

In this state, you don't need to open the door to enter directly......

Inside, he saw an elderly man talking to himself in the mirror with a crown on his head.

........................

Sean woke up from his bed again.

There was already a glimmer of light in the room.

Look up at the time outside the window...... [Dark: Sunny day,]

There are still more than 50 minutes before dawn! You can already see that the sky is gradually opening up.

"Is anyone outside?" shouted out the house.

Normally, the servants take turns to be on duty outside, and if they need anything, they will be the first to run in.

"Lord Earl!"

Soon, a maid walked away and gently opened the door and walked in.

"Pour me a basin of hot water. ”

"Yes...... I'll get it at once, Lord Earl. ”

The door was closed again......

Sean got up and draped himself in a few clothes, then walked over to the table and poured a glass of water from a beautiful tea set.

It's cold~

After a few mouthfuls, the maid brought a basin of hot water from outside.

Wash your face and wipe the cold sweat off your body!

"The Earl is up so early, it's not dawn yet. The maid standing aside said suddenly.

At this time, Sean looked up at the other party, and it seemed that this servant had not seen it before...... Otherwise, they wouldn't have said anything like that, weren't the servants of the past accustomed to it?

"You're new here?"

"Uh...... Well. Yes, my lord. ”

Sure enough, Sean remembered that he had never seen the girl in front of him, and the maids in his family were relatively young, and these people were all arranged by Kalibo, probably he thought that the younger ones were more diligent.

Putting down the towel and walking to the window to open the curtains, the light shone in and hit the girl's brown hair.

"You don't look like a local girl, where is your hometown?"

"I'm from the north, my lord. ”

"The North, the front line of the Imperial War?" Sean asked suddenly, looking at the girl.

"Yes, my hometown was originally from the north, but after the Borgs came, all the people in our village fled...... I followed the refugee team all the way south and ended up being sold here. Although the girl was a little disappointed when she talked about her experience, she tried not to show it in front of Sean.

The slave trade is a lot of noise in the market, and it can't be stopped.

In this world, it has become the norm, servants are the property of rich families, and resale and repayment of debts are common occurrences. Even oneself cannot change this fixed social form.

Sean estimated that the maid in front of him should have been sold by his parents, after all, they have become refugees, and if they want their children to live a better life, this can be regarded as a solution. Although they became the property of the wealthy, many servants did not necessarily have a bad fate, but they had no name and no freedom.

"Has the fighting in the north become so serious?"

"Hmm. Looking at the maid in front of him and nodded.

"A lot of people are either dying on the battlefield or dying of starvation...... Some of my companions who came with me before I came here were starved to death, by the way, my lord. I've heard that you are a good lord, and I want to beg you if you can buy them too, and we will work hard and repay you!"

looked at the maid suddenly kneeling in front of him, but Sean looked calm.

"You go and tell the housekeeper about this, not everything has to be done by me personally......"

Presumably, the maid also felt that she could not speak like this in the presence of the Count, and immediately stood up.

He bowed and was about to leave with the basin.

"But one thing you can rest assured is that this war won't last long!"
