Volume 4 + Chapter 204: The Dream Entry Experiment

Looking at the Vampire Clan palace maid slumped over the table, Xia Yi was quite astonished.

She went over and nudged the maid’s shoulder. “Hey, how come you fell asleep? If you sleep here, you’ll catch a chill in your stomach.”

“……”

The Vampire Clan palace maid didn’t respond.

After Xia Yi called out to her several more times, the other party still showed no signs of waking up.

“So… the hypnosis actually succeeded… just like that?”

Unbelievable!

She was pleasantly surprised. Clearly, she had never learned a skill like this before. Without anyone teaching her, she had managed to figure it out on her own and successfully hypnotized someone so effortlessly.

“Could it be… I’m actually… a hypnosis genius?”

Xia Yi made a ‘V’ sign with her small hand and placed it under her chin, looking rather smug.

“Heh heh heh. So in the future, if I don’t like someone, can I just hypnotize them?”

“You’re overthinking it, little silver dragon. This has nothing to do with you. I’m the one who did it,” Ella said, rather dampening the mood. “Even if you did nothing, I could remotely hypnotize people around you through the succubus mark using my succubus abilities.”

“Then why did you tell me to hypnotize her earlier?!”

The smile vanished from Xia Yi’s face.

“You got my hopes up for nothing!”

“Because it feels more ceremonial that way! Alright, alright, let’s get started. Pick up the maid in front of you and carry her to the bed.”

“Oh.”

Xia Yi felt a little miffed inside, but she still followed Ella’s instructions and carried the unconscious maid to the bed.

“Once hypnotized, the master can do all sorts of things to the maid, and she won’t resist. When she wakes up, even if she’s been ‘filled like a cream puff,’ she’ll remain oblivious. She might even feel guilty towards the master for falling asleep on the job… until the next hypnosis session begins… Heh, it’s a rather classic plot development.”

Ella suddenly spouted a string of rather ambiguous remarks.

Although Xia Yi didn’t fully understand the meaning, she could roughly guess it was probably about… lewd stuff.

After all, the lowly succubus always had that style.

“Ella, stop with the weird talk and hurry up.”

“Close your eyes, little silver dragon. Open them after three seconds,” Ella said.

Xia Yi closed her eyes and counted down in her heart: three, two, one…

“Huh?!”

When the silver-haired loli opened her eyes, she found the entire world had changed.

This was no longer her room, but somewhere in the Vampire Clan palace. It looked like a maid’s lounge or break room.

The Vampire Clan palace maid who should have been asleep now seemed to have finished a day’s work and was tidying up her things.

“It looks like the dream entry was a great success,” Ella’s voice sounded beside Xia Yi’s ear. “We have now successfully entered the target’s dream.”

“This is that maid’s dream?”

“That’s right. If you don’t believe it, little silver dragon, run to the window and take a look.”

Xia Yi ran to the lounge window and looked outside.

It was a perfectly normal palace night scene with a moon, nothing particularly different.

“It doesn’t seem like there’s anything.”

“Little silver dragon, is there anything you’d like to eat?” Ella asked.

“…Osmanthus cake.”

“Osmanthus cake? Your taste is a bit unique. I thought, being a Dragon Clan princess, you might want to eat human flesh or something…”

“What kind of Dragon Clan stereotype is that?! Besides, why are you asking me this?”

“Hehe, look up and see what the moon has turned into,” Ella said softly. “Dream Manipulation.”

As soon as the succubus lady’s words fell, the full moon in the sky actually turned into a piece of osmanthus cake.

“Wow, it’s osmanthus cake!!”

A surprised smile bloomed on Xia Yi’s face. She had never seen such an unbelievable thing before.

“Besides osmanthus cake, can anything else be changed?”

“Of course! Don’t underestimate me. I’m a great demon! Dream Manipulation!”

Ella activated her succubus’s special ability once more. The clouds in the sky all turned into cotton candy.

Xia Yi remembered now. Last time, Ella had shown this ability within her own dream, even turning the Holy Sword into a snack.

In a sense, succubus were indeed very powerful, able to freely dominate the dreams of those they entered.

“Ella, this ability is really convenient. In the dream world, you can have anything you want.”

“While that’s true, using succubus abilities consumes my own energy. The greater the changes made to the dream, the greater the consumption. Without replenishing life essence, a succubus doesn’t feel happy—it’s even uncomfortable.”

“…Then why did you turn my dream into a candy world last time?”

“Th-that was, of course, for the atmosphere!” Ella replied awkwardly. “I thought I could have a good feast all at once, so I wanted to create some impactful special effects.”

The result was a complete failure. Not only did she not absorb any life essence, but she was also forced to sign a temporary contract. Now she even has to help out—basically working for free.

The succubus lady is truly a big, unfortunate fool.

Xia Yi asked, “Since this is that maid’s dream, will we be discovered?”

“As long as we don’t actively appear in front of her and do something attention-grabbing, there won’t be a problem,” Ella explained. “Based on my experience, the current dream isn’t her fantasy, but her memory.”

“Memory?”

“Yes. Memories deeply buried in the dreamer’s soul, those indelible recollections. They are now surfacing as a dream. Let’s just observe for now.”

“Okay.”

Xia Yi stayed in the corner of the lounge, unnoticed.

It might also be due to Ella’s succubus abilities, right now, Xia Yi’s presence was as faint as the air.

She watched the dreamer maid.

It seemed the dreamer maid had finished her work and was about to go rest.

There was no one else in the lounge either. Everything seemed utterly ordinary.

Xia Yi felt puzzled. Why would a situation like this be an indelible memory?

Just as she was about to ask Ella if she’d made a mistake, the door suddenly opened.

Another maid walked in. Initially looking serious, she stopped in surprise upon unexpectedly finding the dreamer maid here as well. She took half a step back shyly, then covered her mouth with a fist, giggling uncontrollably, instinctively performing a little series of flustered gestures.

“Sen… Senpai, you’re still here? I thought you had already gone back…” It seemed this maid was clearly the junior.

“…Mhm.”

The dreamer maid nodded, showing a gentle smile.

Both fell silent for a moment, not knowing what to say. They both seemed a bit awkward, as if they hadn’t expected to suddenly be alone together.

Xia Yi was a bit confused. What… was this situation?

“Senpai, I’ve actually always wanted to tell you something. Ever since I entered the palace, the first time I saw you, my gaze has never been able to leave your face. Even after finishing work each day, whenever I think of your face, my heart always starts beating faster,” the junior maid said, placing her hands over her chest as she stepped forward. “Actually, I’ve always harbored feelings for you…”

“I feel the same way.”

The dreamer maid embraced her junior.

Next, the actions of these two caused Xia Yi’s expression to freeze, her pupils shaking with shock.

“Ella, what’s going on?! Why are these two maids starting to tear each other’s clothes off?!!”
