Chapter 312: Dream

"Aha……………"

Sitting on the chair, looking at the flashing neon lights outside the window, Duanmuhuai couldn't help but sigh.

"Love..."

While muttering to himself, Duanmuhuai picked up a can of beer and poured it into his mouth.

I don't know if it's because of chatting with that strange girl today, Duanmuhuai reconsidered this question rarely. As for whether he wants to fall in love, Duanmuhuai really hasn't thought about it. Ever since his first love failed when he was in school, Duanmuhuai has never thought about having any intimate relationship with other women. And with his appearance, it is difficult to attract women.

Duanmu Huai had seen that kind of harem animation before, but unfortunately, no matter what, he didn't have any sense of substitution. The reason is very simple, even if it is those useless male protagonists in harem animations, even if they are men who have nothing but gentleness, or even fat houses, there will be women who will take the initiative to fall in love with him.

And this kind of thing... Duanmu Huai felt that it would never happen to him.

This is also one of the reasons why he chose to play the female account. After all, he didn't want to pretend to be a shemale to deceive men, and he was too lazy to engage in online dating, so he just played like this.

Duanmu Huai didn't think there was anything wrong with this, he himself was not interested in love, and getting married was not on his agenda. To be honest, even if he made a marriage contract with An and Guleya for various reasons, Duanmuhuai didn't know how to treat them, for example, how to show his fiance side? Duanmuhuai had never thought about this kind of thing.

Just like in real life, Duanmu Huai just focused on the life in front of him, how to receive orders, how to make money, and how to make money. But as for what he will do and what he will do after this, Duanmu Huai never thinks about these issues. He doesn't think about whether he will die alone, whether he will marry others and have children in the future, or whether he will continue to rely on this industry after he is forty or fifty years old.

He just stared at the present, as mechanically as signing in in a mobile game, repeating his life day after day over and over again. I signed up, got my reward, and that was enough. As for the use of these things and their impact on the future, Duanmu Huai would not think about these issues.

The same is true now, Duanmuhuai's immediate goal is to make himself strong enough to fight against the Chaos God, and everything he does is for this goal.

But other than that, he basically doesn't care.

It's like playing an FPS game. Players only need to care about finding their weaknesses and defeating the BOSS. There is no need for one or two sweet and fresh love episodes to enliven the atmosphere.

It's not necessary, is it?

"What a hassle."

After drinking the beer, Duanmuhuai shook his head. He didn't know what kind of insanity he had committed today. He was attracted by the words of the kimono girl, so he suddenly became sentimental like a literary youth. To be honest, Duanmu Huai felt that this was not suitable for him at all.

Forget it, go to sleep.

Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai yawned, and then went to bed to rest——he just closed his eyes and fell asleep.

When Duanmuhuai opened his eyes again, he found himself in a classroom, and in front of him was a girl.

Although she didn't turn around, Duanmu Huai still remembered her.

That was my first love—or, it's not quite right to say my first love.

Duanmuhuai was not sure if he had feelings for her, and the reason why he confessed to her was very simple. At that time, she was the tallest girl in the class. Although she was still shorter than Duanmuhuai, she was taller than everyone else. Because of this, she is always called "the giantess". And her own character is also a bit boyish, every time someone calls her that, she will get angry and fight with the other person, and as time goes by, she is also regarded as a person who is respected and kept at a distance just like Duanmu Huai.

At that time, Duanmuhuai felt that he and she were in the same disease, so he confessed to her.

Thinking back now, the girl's expression was very complicated at that time, she lowered her head without saying a word, and finally just nodded slightly. At that time, Duanmuhuai was quite happy, thinking that the other party should have the same feelings as himself.

But later, after she transferred to another school, Duanmuhuai realized that the girl was neither happy nor excited. She just simply felt the pain and despair——she was already isolated by the classmates because of her height, but she was finally targeted by herself, the "fierce god". Perhaps it was because of this that she finally chose to leave This school, leave this city.

There is nothing outside the window, only a gorgeous, constantly rotating Wanhua mirror.

At the same time, a voice rang in Duanmuhuai's ear.

"Do you long for love?"

"........."

Duanmu Huai didn't answer this question, he just stared at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure in his memory, frowning slightly.

"Don't be afraid of love, don't be afraid of longing."

That voice continued to echo in Duanmuhuai's ears.

"Loving each other and yearning for each other is the instinct of all life. This is the imprint deep in the soul. If you resist it and ignore it, you will only be destroyed by it—fear and avoidance are not the solution. If you wish to achieve your purpose, you must accept it and...conquer it."

"..."

Duanmuhuai didn't say a word, just clenched his fists.

"Remember, this is only the beginning, and if you fail to take this step, then you will never be able to face your enemy."

The Wanhua mirror outside the window flickered and rotated with the sound, bringing a dreamlike brilliance.

"you mean………"

Duanmu Huai opened his mouth, and at this moment, a ridiculous idea suddenly appeared in his heart.

Could it be that this task is for...

"Escaping cannot solve the problem. Feelings are not a burden, but a strength."

The voice was still whispering.

"Look into your self, find your heart's desire, tap into its presence, and let it be your strength...not your weakness."

As the words fell, the radiance of the Wanhua mirror shining all around became more dazzling and charming, and soon, they formed blurred patterns in front of Duanmuhuai.

It was a low voice that made people tremble, the snow-white intertwined body, and everything seemed to turn into some irresistible waves, rushing towards Duanmu Huai.

The next moment, he opened his eyes abruptly.

"Mr. Duanmu."

At this time, Duanmuhuai saw that Honoko was sitting beside her, looking at him uneasily.

"Are you all right, Mr. Duanmu?"

'I'm fine, what happened? "

Looking at Honoko, Duanmuhuai frowned, and asked, but the latter hesitated for a moment, and then spoke uneasily.

"Because you've been in a coma for two days, and you didn't respond to my calls. I thought you..."

"Two days?"

Hearing Suo Naiguo's answer, Duanmu Huai was also taken aback, and he sat up hastily.

"What about the game?"

"It hasn't started yet...Mr. Duanmu, are you still going to participate in the competition?"

"certainly."

Duanmuhuai stood up and moved his body. Although he didn't know what was going on, Duanmuhuai already had some guesses about the dream. However, now is not the time to verify his conjecture, he still has to go to the competition first, get rid of the last opponent, and then --- let's talk about that!
