Hit the Road, Jack!: Hit Distress Call!

Jack and Elicia expended some time talking about the options they had. Moving to a Small World was out of the picture. They had no confidence on their programming skills - so, the Small Worlds were actually the worst place they could try to go to.

Samantha may be a wild card they had to be wary of, but she hadn't done anything of importance until that moment, so it may be better to stay under her.

As for the war with the Goblin Empire, both had decided that staying out of it was still the better option.

In the end, nothing had really changed - except that Jack had been able to add more mana to his dungeon than the usual.

So, both decided on a simple plan. Jack would turn into a hummingbird and sleep as he so much enjoyed.

As for Elicia, she would operate the dungeon core and deal with the matters with the people relocation.

"Dreamer" was one very peculiar class on Another World. It revolved around sleeping and accessing the game world while doing so, as well as creating small worlds of one's on based on their dreams. These worlds were temporary, but one could say they were basically Small Worlds themselves - only on much smaller scale and still subjected to most of the Main Server rules.

It wasn't easy to be a dreamer, since it was a high-end class one could only obtain after maxing a lot of skill trees, but it was, nonetheless, extremely powerful.

As they slept, the players could basically create a new avatar while also connected to their original avatar. This new avatar would have the form of a small sphere of light, but could assume any other form.

Then, inside this new avatar, the dreamer had access to a separate space where it could create the rules based on a certain number of easy-to-understand commands and templates. It was almost as if it was a Small World, but it was still part of the Main Server and couldn't be freely programmed. One had to "program" this small world according to pre-made templates, like gravity manipulations, terrain changing and so on.

The amount of changes and the strength of the Dream Avatar largely depended on the user's skill level, which were the ones of Dream Acolyte, Dream Master, Dream Lord, Dream King or Dream Emperor.

Above everything, the most powerful capability of a Dream God was to suck people's avatars inside its own small world, subjecting them to all kinds of environment and so on.

Jack wouldn't use this kind of power frequently and, had not being for the influence of Another World on his brain, he certainly would have preferred to just sleep instead.

However, he activated the skill as soon as he slept. This way he could keep some vigilance.

How surprised was he, so, once Yrwin appeared on his screen:

- Master, the Demon Kingdom claims to have your daughter. They want for you to go there personally!

Soon, the powerful Dragon King couldn't do but force himself to wake.
