Billy finally woke up again in his bed. His body felt like he had just done a long marathon because he was so tired.
Then all the running he did in that dream really took a toll on his body. It was very troublesome because he still felt tired even when sleeping. So then, his sleep becomes useless.
But that feeling of fatigue was nothing compared to the figure he had met earlier. The half-naked woman was definitely not an ordinary woman. Although her form is not much different from humans.
She was probably the lord of that strange pink and black castle. If so, who is she?
Then, Billy remembered something important.
"Could this have something to do with the madness that occurs when my Magic awakens?" Billy wondered.
He still wasn't sure about that. The half-naked figure of the woman he met seemed very real, not like a mere fantasy or dream.
And again, the woman seemed to be in pain when she tried to do something to him because she felt the Dragon's power.
Once again Billy thanked Erend who was probably sleeping in his own room right now not knowing anything. He had sent a help that could have cost his life.
Billy then rushed into the bathroom to relieve himself and wash his face. After that, he returned to bed and lay down.
Tomorrow he had to tell Erend and Adrien what dream he had just had. That is the best solution. He also shouldn't forget to thank Erend because he had helped him from the disturbance of the half-naked woman who might have devoured his soul.

The next day Billy arrived at the military headquarters in a hurry. When he finally saw Erend and Adrien, Billy rushed over to them.
Erend and Adrien seemed to be discussing something serious from Adrien's face. Billy felt this was the right time because he also wanted to talk to them about something serious.
"What's wrong, Brook?" Adrien asked with a frown. Seeing how Billy approached them, Adrien and Erend naturally felt confused.
"I had a nightmare last night," Billy said with a serious face.
Upon hearing that, Adrien and Erend exchanged glances. Adrien said. "I just had one last night too."
Billy blinked rapidly while looking at Adrien. "You experienced that too, Captain?"
Adrien nodded.
"Which means this isn't a coincidence at all," Billy said.
"Let's go somewhere safe," said Erend.
They then went to an unused meeting room. Billy locked the door to make sure no one came in while they were discussing something important and confidential.
Billy began to tell what dream he had last night. Then because he didn't hear Adrien's story earlier, Adrien told it again.
"You think this has something to do with awakening Magic in us?" Billy asked.
"Of course, Brook! What else could make our dream like that," Adrien said, looking impatient.
"Don't worry. I have good news," Erend said. They both immediately turned questioning glances at him.
"Aurdis said she already got the green light to teach us how to use Magic."
Upon hearing Erend's words, the stiff look on both of their faces seemed to disappear. Like the dust that blew by the wind.
"Then when can we start?" Billy asked.
"Why the rush?" Erend asked back.
Billy looked at Erend with eyes that looked terrified. "You have no idea about what Captain and I have just experienced. In my case, I might become a slave to whatever creature is in my dreams!"
"Yeah, I agree with Brook about the urgency of this case."
Erend looked at Adrien and Billy alternately. What he saw on both of their faces were fear and anxiety. So, Erend intends to fulfill their wish.
"Oh! I almost forgot," Billy said, slapping his forehead. "That half-naked woman didn't do anything to me because she felt your dragon power."
Then Billy explained how the woman grabbed Billy's head and tried to do something bad to him. But immediately stopped when she felt pain due to the Dragon's power inside Billy.
Erend was silent and thought for a few moments. Based on Billy's description, that means his power is the bane to something in his dreams.
It also meant that what was in Billy's dream wasn't just an effect of madness due to his Magic awakening. But it was completely another being from an unknown realm trying to seduce Billy.
"This is something different," Erend muttered. Then he glanced at the two of them. "For now at least we know that whatever you're dreaming of is a real being and not just a dream."
"But if they weren't just dreams, then what were they?" Adrien asked in a confused tone.
Erend paused to think. But in the end, he couldn't find anything. At least now.
"I don't know," said Erend. "But at least we know they can't touch you in my presence."
"Yeah. That's a good thing," Billy nodded in agreement.
For now, they decided not to think about the problem first and focus on work. Besides they didn't have a solution, they also didn't need to worry too much because it was clear that Erend's presence made any creature that tried to attack them hesitate.

Finally, the time Aurdis had been waiting for arrived. She teleported to Erend's car when he returned from the military base. After that, she immediately wore the disguise of a human woman.
Even though now Aurdis only looks like a human woman, she is still too stunning for an ordinary human.
"I feel nervous," Aurdis said while fidgeting her fingers.
"Why?" Erend asked. "You are a princess of a kingdom and you are nervous to meet my family?"
"Well, it's different. What if they don't like me? And I also can't use my princess status here, can I?"
What Aurdis said was true. But Erend didn't feel that his mother and sisters would not like Aurdis.
She is gorgeous, and she is wearing the perfect human disguise.
Maybe it would be different if they found out that Aurdis was actually an Elf. But for now, he needn't worry about that.
