Their mocking voices thrum in the deepest part of my mind ,speaking only words like needles and yet I feel no pain.   The onlookers sneer with contempt as they watch the sweat drip off my glasses; my legs ache ,but my pride is my fuel. Domineering that she is, the captain smirking as she looks down at me from the bleachers." No chances they say, with short legs like mine,." I want to feel the breeze and taste victory. Their laughs only fuel me further because this is my destiny and mine alone.

My brothers and sisters...It is time to put an end to this age of shity harem ff’s it’s time to make a stand...a stand to end this era of bull shit...a stand to stop the harem sect....a stand to have good fan fics again without a harem ruining it...a stand for ff’s without harems prosper once agin like they used too

As Dream walk towards his home, he felt something sucking him. "What's this?" He asks as his mind went blank and darkness what followed. Waking up again Dream saw himself in front of him. Smiling at Dream he spoke. "Well having fun with my body?" The man asks Dream as he slowly went towards him.

"Let's play a game! Manhunt if you catch me ill give you a portal to go to the nether! So?" The man asks as he grinned. Dream looking at him smiled and spoke. "Yea sure but I want to ask are you the god or the person who made me like you?" He asks looking at Dream.

"hmm no that would be Rob I'm Dream we are Dream but I'm a different one. There are millions of us in different worlds there's even a person in your world as a Dream but he is the original. Now stop with the chit chat let's start" The person said to Dream as he started to run towards a lake.

"Looks fine I'm in," Dream said as he laughed and chase after himself. He looks at the person's hand and saw a boat. He looks at the lake again and looks at his inventory seeing a few pieces of wood he made both of his own. He looks back and saw him riding the wooden boat away from him.

Placing the wooden boat at the water Dream hope in and started to chase for himself. While chasing each other. Dream asks himself. "hey! Can I ask why make me come here? And where are we?" Dream asks as he jumps from his boat towards himself landing on himself while destroying the boat. "Well for starters," He said kicking Dream on the face swimming forwards and placing his boat back before getting on and leaving Dream also placing his boat back.

"Well because you may have our body, skills, and other stuff but you're not good at it. By running away your not getting better. We practice for ours and ours to no end until we see what we are. It's my job to train you and where in your mind right now so catch me hahaha or you never get out" He said as he reaches land getting his boat before running away towards the trees in the distance and punching the tree to get some wood.

"Fair enough I guess," Dream said landing on the ground getting his both, and chasing himself down. As he looks at the wooden sword he had. Dream took out the ice sword from his inventory. "Hahaha, you really are dumb! Before you came I was already fighting with techno" He said as both Dream and he fought.

Dream jump to the sky before using his body momentum to make himself numb. "Not gonna work Dream! Techno did more than that" He said as he lunch Dream a few meters away from himself before jumping spinning in the air he uses his momentum to place Dream to the ground as he was half-kneeling. One leg to the ground the sword clash in the sky.

Dream felt his whole body nub slowly loosening the sword he was holding and finally his ice sword was cut in two by the wooden sword he was using and cutting his whole body in half as he pops like a bubble of smoke.

Waking up again Dream look around and find himself staring at him with a smile. "Here take this our game isn't done yet your not leaving until you catch me see ya," Himself said as he dashes away from Dream. Looking at his hands he found his ice sword broken in two. "Hmm better get started then" Dream said as he chases after himself.

A few hours later you could see Dream wearing full diamond armor a shield and an enchanted ax on his hands battling someone that looks like him wearing full enchanted Dimon armor with a shield on his left hands and an enchanted sword on his right.

They clash swords and as sparks flew out. Dream has many cuts on his body a little bloody but same with the other person that looks like himself. They are on the edge of a cliff ten thousand meters deep.

"Ha...ha...Come on just...ha...Die already ok?" Dream asks as him she'd was broken. Quickly going to his inventory he took out a totem of undying to his left hands as he uses all his strength to destroy the other person's shield. "Same at you," The other person said as he also took out a totem of undying.

Running forward Dream push himself and the other person with him off the cliff. They fell at the average speed of 1500 meters per hour. ""Hahaha"" They both laugh as they clash while in mid-air. Dream rotates himself in the air and cuts the other person's head off.

Breaking the totem bones first emerge from the head then the veins then muscles finally the skin and hair along with the signature hoodie and mask. Using the person's sword he pierced the hearth of Dream also breaking the totem of undying recreating his hearth.

As they both look at each other taking both from the inventory they place it right before they landed and hopping on it. They both landed safely and the person that looks like Dream started to run away. Trowing an ender pear Dream teleported himself right beside the person that looks like himself. Bringing his ax upwards he cut half of the person's body off. Starting to his lower ribs towards his collar bone.

"HAAAAA FINALLY! IT'S BEEN A WEEK! A WEEK MAN!" Dream said screaming said as he saw himself in front of the person again. "Well looks like you defeated me well here's the portal and ill say this first. Place it to the portal in a secure place because your the only person that could stay safe in there bye then" The person said with green before Dream knows what was happening he saw himself in the place before he disappeared. "Go home and go to bed" Dream said running towards his house. getting inside he shut the door behind him and he walks to his room not even making it as he fell to the ground fast asleep.

---

In his mind, the person that looks like himself went towards a person that also looks like Dream but more mature looking and taller. "Im done with him it's your turn. He got his ability on check and also has given him the portal to the nether"

"yes, ill handle it. God did make a mistake and he needed him to fix it" He said with a tired sigh. It's not his fault they have been doing this for all their lives. Just like Dream, they are also humikin. They are the people that fought with the dungeon monsters and beast. But now an old monster has been slowly gaining power and has stolen one of their ability called pair play.

It's an ability to make someone equally to you and will always be pair to both of you even if the other is a million times stronger than himself. "no point that dragon is going to appear soon better be prepared than not" The other dream said as he disappeared in darkness leaving the new person that looks like Dream.

A man was awakened from his short dream waking up in a forest he doesn't know about. After thinking for a few seconds of what happened a system as a hologram appeared in front of him only showing his stats and skills nothing else while a message was with it.

Follow his journey as he reincarnated as Dream in a new world.

"June!" Dream shouted as the campers headed to get food before the next contest,
"What's up Dream?" June asked as she stopped walking,
"Your eyes, their back to hazel" Dream mumbled loud enough for June to hear,
"What do you mean?" June asked
"Your eyes changed color twice during our battle" Dream explained
"Really?" June asked, confusion and excitement slipping out with her question.
"What were you doing when we were exchanging blows?" Dream asked as she walked towards the pavilion,
"I was watching your moves and trying to come up with a plan, but then you hesitated which gave me the perfect chance to attack" June explained as she followed Dream,
"Battle strategy/wisdom" Dream mumbled again
"Battle strategy/wisdom?" June asked
"Athen is the Goddess of Battle Strategy, technically it's wisdom but many just say battle strategy in these moments" Dream started to explain,
"You're the creation of the Gods and Goddesses so I believe your eyes turned grey because you were calling upon Athena's power" Dream explained.
"What were you doing when Issac had the skeletons?" Dream asked as she piled food onto her plate,
"Well Roxy told me I could command them, so I tried and it worked" June answered
"Your eyes turned orange. Hades the God of the Underworld" Dream said as she headed for the tables,
"Let's eat and then go talk to Noran about all of this" Dream said
"Sure" June responded and headed for the Hermes table. Everyone in the camp was enjoying their food and busy talking about the contest,
"Looks like everyone is having fun," Bella said as she sat down next to June,
"Yeah they are all loud today" June replied with a chuckle,
"They sure are" Bella laughed. The Hermes table looked at Bella and June with confusion,
"Bella, why are they looking at us like that?" June asked
"Oh, uh, don't worry about it" Bella responded as she glared at the others. One of the campers started to laugh,
"Don't worry? She's a monster! She's going to get us all killed!" the camper screamed at Bella
"Noel enough," Bella said as the pavilion became quiet,
"No! Everyone is thinking it! She brought a Hellhound here! She's a monster!" Noel stood up from her chair and pointed at June,
"You should leave!" Noel screamed at June. June felt eyes on her, some were filled with anger and fear but some were filled with pity and worry,
"I understand," June said as she got up and left the pavilion. June walked out onto the dock and stared out at the water,
"You okay?" a voice from behind June startled her,
"Oh, hi Ashley" June said as she saw who called out to her,
"I'm okay, it's just a little suffocating in the pavilion right now"
"I see, they called you names didn't they?" Ashley asked as she sat on the end of the dock,
"How did you know?" June asked
"Well, I was walking in when it started" Ashley admitted as June joined her on the dock,
"Oh," June said. Ashley and June sat in silence for a while before Ashley decided to speak,
"You noticed how many campers reacted when I became a part of the contest right?" Ashley asked
"They didn't seem to like it" June responded
"I'm the daughter of Aphrodite. Aphrodite is supposed to be a weak Goddess and so her children should be weak as well, but I don't fit into that mold. MY mother may be the Goddess of trivial things but that doesn't mean she's weak. The campers don't like it when a person who is meant to be weak beats them, so I'm an outcast, even in my own cabin" Ashley explained why she was similar to June and June understood that the campers fear and hate people and things that are different.
"What I'm trying to say is don't let yourself get beat down June, you're a remarkable girl and you'll do a lot of good" Ashley said as she laid a hand on June's back,
"Thanks, Ashley!" You're pretty remarkable yourself" June said with a smile and Ashley laughed
"Thanks".
"June!" a voice called out from behind, a voice June recognized
"Dream!" June called back
"I'm over here!". Dream and Jace ran towards June,
"June are you okay?" Dream asked as she hugged June
"I'm okay. Ashley came to keep me company" June responded as she hugged Dream back. Jace smiled and nodded to Ashley
"Thank you," Jace said
"No problem. June and I are familiar" Ashley said as she stood up,
"See you around June, looks like you have these two to look after you," Ashley said as she patted June's head,
"See you around Ashley, and I have you just like you have me if things go wrong" June replied with a smile and Ashley nodded,
"You're right" Ashley smiled as she walked away.
"You okay?" Jace asked June as he sat down next to her and Dream,
"I'm doing better," June said
"Sorry we couldn't do anything when Noel started to scream" Dream apologized as she held her head,
"It's okay" June replied with a smile
"It's my fault for calling Roxy after she warned me about how the campers viewed her". Jace hugged June
"You're not a monster, you are a special girl and the others don't know that" Jace kissed the top of June's head, 
"Thanks, Jace" June said with a smile as she breathed in his scent. 
"We should go see Noran now" Dream said 
"We want to figure out why your eyes change color",
"Okay" June replied as she stood up
"Let's go". June, Dream, and Jace walked off the dock and towards the main house; suddenly screams came from the pavilion, 
"Dream?" June said as she looked at Dream with worry in her eyes, 
"Something is wrong. Let's go" Dream said and they ran for the Pavilion. The screams and cries got louder as June, Dream, and Jace got closer, 
"What's going on?" June asked
"A monster probably got in. It's not uncommon for one to break in now and then since we only have campers patrolling the area" Jace explained as they reached the pavilion, 
"Oh, my gods" Dream gasped as they saw campers on the ground bleeding and dying. 
"Apollo cabin help the injured!" Noran shouted as he ran around the pavilion helping campers up, 
"Noran!" Dream shouted as June, Jace, and she ran to Noran, 
"Dream, Jace, June, good you're here" Noran sighed with relief, 
"What's going on?" Dream asked
"A monster got in" Noran explained
"The Chimaera" Noran said before Drem asked which monster, 
"The Chimaera?" Dream gasped
"Yes" Noran responded
"Chimaera?" June asked as she watched Dream and Noran talk, 
"A monster with a lion head, a fire-breathing goat head, a serpent head, and a body of a woman" Dream explained with a sigh, 
"Bad news, got it. Now, where is it?" June asked
"Just behind the pavilion with the campers who could still fight," Noran said as he pointed, 
"Well, let's go," June said as she ran off to help.

June is a 7 year old who ran away from home and is now living on her own. June meets a Hellhound and two strangers and her life is sent into chaos. June soon finds herself in a camp for demigods, children of the Greek Gods and Goddess, and it turns out she is a demigod; But who is her godly parent? As June goes on her first quest she finds out who she is and why she is so special. 
Who is June? Who is her parent? Why is she does she have these powers? Why is she so special? What will happen when June goes on her quest? Will June ever get to live a normal life?

In the dream world, purchasing information took little time.
As long as the payment in terms of contribution points was made, the purchased information would appear immediately in the form of jade scroll guarded by a realm spirit which proved its authenticity.
"Dream Master's Basic Introduction, purchase!"
"Dream Master's 10 Questions, Shi Huzi requested 20 contribution points for it! Purchased!"
"Dream Creek Records, bought!"
"The Path of Illusion, the Tianlan People requested 50 contribution points! Buy… oh, I do not have sufficient contribution points again!"
Fang Yuan looked at his reduced contribution points on his inscription plate and the 3 manuals in his hand. He could not help but feel dumbfounded. "Selling manuals containing insights in cultivation is daylight robbery… if one more dream master were to purchase this information, they would gain another portion of contribution points."
However, he knew clearly that unless one was talented or famous, it would be wishful thinking for a dream master to become prosperous with just the manuals alone.
Fang Yuan left the Square and arrived in the alleys. He took out the 'Dream Master's 10 Questions' and flipped through it.
The pages of this ancient manual were yellow and its cover was hard. It appeared glossy and no matter how one looked at it, it looked like a treasure. As Fang Yuan's hand descended onto the manual, there was a flash of light which engraved itself onto Fang Yuan's forehead.
"Oh…"
Fang Yuan grew dizzy and in his sea of consciousness, a wall of text appeared. "Dream Masters make use of heaven and earth to become the master of all living things! In the beginning, dream mastersÂ were prosperous and were aware of the 10 questions…"
The 10 questions were simple and philosophical.Â Fang Yuan could tell that the author had reached the pinnacle of being a dream master just by reading the text.
After finishing the book, he turned his attention to the 'Dream Master's Basic Introduction'. While the book explained difficult concepts in simple terms, it provided Fang Yuan with a solid foundation and clearly recorded the path after the Illusionary Divine Stage. As such, Fang Yuan was able to have a better understanding of his strengths and weaknesses.
However, what caused Fang Yuan to be astonished was the 'Dream Creek Records' which appeared to be handwritten!
The manual was in tatters and was full of colloquial speech. However, it managed to portray the problems that the dream masters faced.
"After becoming a dream master and travelling through the Da Qian Empire, I have discussed swords with the sword masters, compared knives with the knife enthusiasts, ruled the beasts, remained undefeated and studied the different pathways under the heavens. This resulted in me feeling deeply that the path of a dream master is to use the blessings of heavens and earth and might not even be of this world!"
"When one is born, and by the time he reaches adulthood, he would have to ponder upon where he came from and where to go from there. Where do we, as dream masters, come from? Dream elemental force, the ability to actualize objects pique my interest!"
"… After thousands of comparison, I dare conclude that every pathway of cultivation requires the use of heavens and earth's power for one to be extraordinary. Why do dream masters require so many resources? There can only be one reason! The difference between dream masters and Grandmasters or spiritual knights! The dream elemental force that we require does not originate from this world! It is from another higher dimension which is able to support the dream master's ability to actualize objects… we can even say that the Illusionary Divine Stage is entirely based on upon the unknown source of power!"
"The final outcome of any pathway to cultivation is to return to one's roots, to search for the source of the power… I dare predict, that in order for a dream master to surpass himself, he needs to find his roots, the origin of everything!"
…
The records only contained a few pages but it was enough to shock Fang Yuan.
"It appears that the dream masters already knew the existence of another world and have even started exploring it!"
"It seems that the ability to actualize objects in the Illusionary Divine Stage is not just purely dependent on one's intense training, it requires the source of the dream masters' power…"
Fang Yuan had long sensed it.
If he had gone about doing things his previous way, in order for a dream master to actualize an object, he would need to thoroughly analyse the laws of the world which was impossible for anyone to accomplish.
However, throughout history, there were many dream masters who have reached the Illusionary Divine Stage. The only possibility was the addition of an external source of power which greatly simplified the process of reaching the Illusionary Divine Stage.
Fang Yuan's mind wandered, and he imagined that when he broke through to the Illusionary Divine Stage, a ray of white light bestowed upon him the ability to create an actualized dream world and the ability to actualize objects as the giant door shattered!
"Dream Master World!"
"This is the name that the author give to the world where dream masters originated from! Ever since this writing was published, all the dream masters desired to find this world. However, no one was able to succeed till today…"
Just a small leakage from the Dream Master World was sufficient to supplement a dream master's power and allow him to actualize an object.Â 
If one is able to find the Dream Master World, wouldn't he become extraordinary and divine, forever having nothing to worry about?
It was precisely because of this conjecture that spurred the later generations of dream masters to search for leads regarding the Dream Master World.
"There are talents in every generation… there has been rapid progression in the changes in the Da Qian dream master's world in the few short years that my master lived in seclusion."
Fang Yuan nodded his head and felt excited. "However… I like this atmosphere!"
Fang Yuan had previously chased after longevity and eternity, but it had always been smoke and mirrors.
Now, he suddenly saw a possibility of success.
The excitement felt was similar to the feelings that a traveler, who had been travelling for a long time in the dark and had suddenly seen the light, would feel.
"Of course… the Dream Master World and the likes are still too far ahead of me. I should be considering the path to take after reaching the Illusionary Divine Stage!"
Fang Yuan grew serious.
After reaching the Illusionary Divine Stage, there were different pathways to take, the simplest being the dream spell master, followed by the dream soldier master, dream alchemy master, dream array master, dream beast master and the mysterious dream prophet master. There were all kinds of abilities and different pathways even though the end goal was to create an actualized dream world. The pathways taken were different and as such, each pathway had its own unique features.
"This is due to the fact that creating a whole dream world is too difficult and as such, the dream masters start with a portion of the laws and expand from there. As such, their abilities are different as well!"
Fang Yuan thought of his own master's inheritance.
Master Heartless took the path to become a dream soldier master after reaching the Illusionary Divine Stage.
A dream soldier master created magical soldiers in his own dream world by first giving the magical soldiers form. With the condensed dream elemental force, the troop's prowess increase and their thoughts can become a reality. They will be able to topple mountains and overturn the seas[1]. They are able to adapt and react to all types of situations. In the end, a dream soldier master would be able to use this pathway to have a better understanding of the world!
As for a dream spell master, he would be able to develop thousands of spells with a single thought. A dream array master would be to form an array in his dreams in an instant. If the elder of Xu Family was a dream array master and was able to call upon his arrays from his dream world, he would not have come to such a sorry end.
"A dream beast master create their paths using summoning spells. He uses dream elemental energy to actualize all sorts of wild beasts and summon a large army of beasts. Of course, there is a branch in this pathway which specializes in transforming one's own body to become ancient beasts etc, inheriting their abilities and at the same time retaining the dream master's intellect. It is difficult to master…"
The introduction to the basics of dream master was enough to dazzle Fang Yuan.
"Furthermore… all the pathways are not mutually exclusive and are able to complement each other. It is just that the time taken would be multiplied. There is also the issue with aptitude of the cultivator and as such, the cons outweigh the benefits…"
Given his current abilities, he was only able to use a few dream spell master's techniques. Even other types of dream masters would not reject the use of dream elemental force to create dream spells in order to aid themselves in their chosen pathways. However, they pale in comparison to a true dream spell master who is able to cast thousands of dream spells with a single thought.
Only with single-hearted devotion can one achieve results.
Regardless of which pathway, the outcome was still the same. All the routes lead to the same destination and as such, it was a waste of effort to walk multiple paths.
"Where does my path lies?"
Fang Yuan sighed. Truth be told, he did not have many options.
While a dream soldier master might not be the strongest amongst the dream masters, there was no doubt that the inheritance in his hand was the most complete.
"Firstly, I do not have enough contribution points to search for the techniques of the other pathways. Secondly, these techniques might not be able to compare to what my master gave me… Afterall, my master's dream soldier master inheritance is a secret inheritance and contain other mysteries. Furthermore, it is extremely compatible with me…"
Fang Yuan shook his head and made up his mind.
Fang Yuan had achieved much in the pathway of martial arts and was not willing to give it up. Choosing the pathway of a dream soldier master would undoubtedly maximize his potential in martial arts.
"Master's dream soldier master pathway is a secret inheritance called the 'Eight Gates Sword Array' which possessed some characteristics of a spiritual array. 8 magical soldiers are created in the dream world to form an array and when required, they can be summoned to assassinate opponents or act as protection for the user! It complements my martial arts!"
The 8 Gates Sword Array used the 8 trigrams[2] as its foundation which encompassed all the living things in the heavens and earth. The fine changes within were limitless.
"While the 8 Gates Sword Array is effective, it does have a downside to it. Its characteristics are obvious and as such, if the enemies of my master see it, I will be in deep trouble…"
"Furthermore, my martial arts is another limiting factor!"
Fang Yuan's Giant Eagle Metal Body Technique was developed by himself and was currently in the beginning stage of forming the 4th spiritual meridian. However, he was unable to proceed further.
In order to achieve a breakthrough, he only had 2 options.
The first option was to obtain the entire manual of Yang Family's technique, the Qian Kun Giant Spiritual Technique and combine it to fill up the gaps in the Giant Eagle Metal Body Technique.
The second option was to use his contribution points and request the help of a more skillful dream master to perfect his technique!
Due to their actualized dream world, dream masters were able to deduce martial arts techniques.
Fang Yuan faced difficulties and was unable to further improve his Giant Eagle Metal Body Technique. However, that did not mean that other dream masters were unable to do so!
If that was the case, it would be difficult to keep the technique a secret and as such, Fang Yuan was unwilling to seek the help of other dream masters.
"Maybe… I should put up posters requesting to buy the entire volume of the Qian Kun Giant Spiritual Technique manual?
Fang Yuan muttered to himself.
The Yang Family was exterminated by Qing Gui. As such, it was likely that the in-house technique was spread to the outsiders.
Afterall, there were so many dream masters in Da Qian with treasures and information as long as one was able to pay the price!
[1] A Chinese saying which means that they possess immense power.

This is the story of a boy who lived a secluded life in the mountains, tending his farm, rearing his fish, and dreaming his dreams. Eh? Did I suddenly conquer all worlds and become the big boss? Or am I still in a dream?


𝗧𝗪: 𝗡𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗲-𝗶𝘀𝗵, 𝘀𝘄𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗳𝗹𝗮𝘀𝗵𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸𝘀

Dream opened his eyes, to surprisingly be hugging George. Dream smiled and hoped for them to stay like this for a while.

"Hey Dream..?"

"Hm?" 

"Why do you.." He paused. "Why do you flirt with me as a joke?" He asked as he pulled away from the hug.

Dream looked at him and saw he was staring at his lap, tears falling onto his jeans, leaving temporary small dark spots.

Dream gulped. "You think it's a joke?"

George looked up at him, eyes filled with tears. "Of course I do! When we're recording you're joking, so how would it be any different in real life? And it hurts me so much! Every day I think about you, wishing you weren't joking around. These past few days I can't look at you and not think, 'I really wanna be with him.' I'm sick of it!" Tears were streaming down George's face. 

"Wait Geo-"

"I'M NOT DONE!" He took in a shaky deep breath, it seeming as if he was about to pour out every bit of emotion he had. 

"Dream, everyday I just want you to love me, like actually. I want to spend time with you and not feel like I'm not a fucking joke. That's all I want. You. Everytime you compliment me or tease me, my heart aches. I wish it were true. You give me butterflies every time you walk in the room! I just can't get over you, especially if you keep making me feel this way! I just can't.." George cupped his head in his hands. 

Dream was shocked about how George felt about him. He always thought that he only saw him as a best friend- with benefits...

He sighed. "George, look at me." George lowered his hands, but wouldn't look up. Dream raised his chin with his pointer finger, and thumb. He then cupped his cheeks and slowly brushed his thumb against his cheek, wiping away his tears.

"I want you to know this. I don't flirt with you just as a joke. Sure, I laugh at you sometimes, but I don't mean it just as a game. George, I- I really thought you were just getting uncomfortable with me for a while, and I thought I was hurting you, but now I see why you 'chickened out'." 

George let air come out through his nose, as if he lightly giggled, tears still falling [okay yeah ik that made no sense i mean like when you smile and then let out a short laugh, but its through your nose almost like a sigh but not okay im srry anyways]

Dream scooted close and pulled him into a hug, lightly scratching his back. 

"George, you don't understand the way I feel about you. Not even I do. I could never bear the fact if you started dating someone other than me." Dream chuckled. "I want to cuddle you and cry with you. I want to warm you when you're cold. I want you to feel like you're the only boy I see in this world. I need you, George. I love you so much, and I wish you didn't feel that you're a joke to me."

A tear slipped from Dream's eye. He could hear George's muffled sniffs as his hands tightly gripped Dream's sweatshirt. They sat like that for a few minutes before George pulled away to wipe his tears. 

Suddenly, George glared up at him. 

"Woah, wished I wouldn't feel that way? How do you expect me to feel?" George asked, his voice growing hostile.

"I didn't mean it like tha-"

"Oh what did you mean then, Dream? You never cared about me, I'm just your little toy that you think you can play with when you're bored."

He stood up, and stomped towards the door. Dream tried to follow him. 

Suddenly, the lights flickered and almost right away burnt out, changing the scene. The natural lighting was faint, but bright enough to make out George's facial expressions.

George smiled. "I hate you Dream, you hurt me. I never actually loved you, I just enjoyed getting the content out of it. You are a monster, and nobody loves you." 

Dream stared in shock as he disappeared into the depths of darkness and the voices that taunted him daily slowly surrounded his head.

 He started getting flashbacks; beer glasses breaking, screams of agony, crying, the memories fuzzy, but definitely there. He fell to his knees and screamed in pain and agony.

"NO PLEASE!" Dream yelled, being scared wide awake. George was sitting next to him, his eyes widened in concern. 

"Are you okay Dream?!" He sat on his bed next to him looking scared and alarmed.

"I-it was nothing, i-it was just a nightmare.." He sighed, taking in deep breaths.

"Will you be okay?" 

"I-I think." He stuttered, slightly shaking.

"Well, if you need anything, tell me." He started to leave the room.

"W-wait." George glanced at him. "C-could I maybe sleep w-with y-you? I-it would make me feel b-better."

George looked at him in disbelief, but waited for Dream to get up from the couch and follow him to the bedroom. 

Dream climbed on the bed, shaking a bit, while George reluctantly climbed under the covers, snuggling deep into the comforter. Dream pulled him into a short hug.

𝘐𝘵 𝘧𝘦𝘭𝘵 𝘴𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭..

"Please don't leave me alone, George."

He let go of him, and when Dream looked at him, hardly noticing it, George was smiling.

After a few moments, he sighed. 

"I won't, Dweamy."

Dream smiled and close his eyes.

"Goodnight, Gogy."

"Night."

𝘐 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶..

Dream slept better the rest of the night, knowing George was peacefully snoozing right next to him. 


————


Dream opened his eyes to see a snoring George.. on him? George lay cuddling close to him, his head resting on his abdomen, his legs were probably sprawled out across the bed randomly. The comforter lay above them both, keeping them warm. Dream fought back the urge to laugh. 

𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘴𝘰 𝘱𝘶𝘳𝘦..

Then, George stirred, causing Dream to jump a little. George suddenly turned his head, looking him in the eye. 

"D-dream?" He said in a morning voice. 

"Goodmorning, Gogy." Dream patted his head.

George sat upright, rubbing his eyes and stretching. 

"How did you sleep?" Dream smirked. "It must've been well. You were sleeping on me, AGAIN."

He hesitated, gaining back consciousness. "Yes, it was very comfortable, thank you. I enjoy you being my personal pillow every night. I definitely would love you to be just that every night, as long as you're okay with it?" George smirked, as Dream flustered.

Dream lightly pushed him over, causing him to yelp. Dream laughed as he crawled over to George and started tickling him.

"D-dream!" George started giggling. "S-sto-stop!"

Dream wheezed, having to pause. Suddenly, two hands pushed him over. Dream opened his eyes in surprise, just as George pounced on him.

"Oof!" 

"That's payback!" George smiled triumphantly.

"You're laying on me again." 

George looked confused for a moment, but eventually realized the position they were in, causing him to blush in embarrassment. He quickly got off.

"I hate you." George crossed his arms and pouted.

"Aww, I love you too." Dream smiled at him in a flirtatious, but playful way.

"Hmph!"

There was a comfortable silence that only lasted for a minute.

"Hey, what should we do today?" Dream asked.

"Uhh, why are you asking me?" George laughed. "I've hardly been in Florida!"

Dream rolled his eyes, realizing he had asked a dumb question.

"Pff, whatever. Hmm, we could just walk around in the city?"

George agreed. 

————

They walked out to Dream's car, Dream wearing a zip up lime green hoodie on top of a plain white shirt with black jeans, and George wearing a blue shirt tucked in his light blue jeans.

Dream and George spent about 3 hours walking around the city, admiring the places and looking through stores. They had so much fun. Then, Dream felt a drop of water. He looked up to see the clouds were turning a light gray, the rain falling more and more by the second. George looked up as well. 

"It's raining." George said.

"Woah, I had no idea!" Dream exclaimed sarcastically.

He watched as George rolled his eyes, the rain slowly seeping in their shirts making them shiver.

The rain poured harder, and soon their hair was damp. 

"Brr, it's getting kind of cold." George mumbled while rubbing his arms, loud enough for Dream to hear.

"Why didn't you bring a sweatshirt?" 

"I-I didn't know it would rain!" 

Dream sighed dramatically and unzipped his hoodie, putting it over their heads covering most of their bodies with it. They both slowly walked, laughing together as the rain softly pattered on the sidewalk.

(I wish I could show a reference, but im not aloud to upload images on here😔 but it's fanart by @/laikoski )


After walking back for a while, they got to their car, getting in quickly. They both sighed in relief as the rain poured down onto the windshield, not being able to touch them.

"Thank gosh, I was about to get drenched!" George said dramatically.

Dream looked at him, his clothes looking drier and not near as touched by the rain as Dream's shirt. 

Dream laughed sarcastically. "Oh shut up, you were hogging my hoodie!"

"No I wasn't, you were!" George protested.

Dream looked at his own clothes and back at George's, comparing them.

"My clothes are wayyy more wet." Dream mused. He ruffled his damp hair.

"Yeah well- whatever." George grumbled.

Dream smiled. "Okay, Gogy."

George giggled.

————

As they drove home, the rain lightened and soon stopped. 

George groaned. "Of course when we go back home the rain lightens!"

Dream laughed. "Just our luck, eh?"

George smiled for a moment. "Sooo, what do we do now?"

"Hmm, we-" 

Dream was interrupted as he heard a ringing from his phone. He picked it up and answered it.

"Hello?"

"Hello, this is emergency services. Is this Clay (last name)?"

  

(1714 words)

"There was a secret to your genius?" Akumu looked blankly at Dream. Everyone in the world had assumed that Dream was given her talents from the day she was born. The government, the Elders from other superpowers… Heck, even Spirit Saints thought that Dream was just an innate genius that was sent by the Immortals above to lead mankind into a brighter tomorrow. Evidently, from Dream's words, that was hardly the case.

"Yeah," the ethereal beauty nodded. Closing her eyes, Dream bent the Mind-Elements to her will and a purplish-crystal light congregated on her crown. As a Spirit Apostle, Akumu could feel a slight pressure weighing down on his body as Dream's Spectre Soul started to shine. Akumu knew what Dream was attempting and trusted that she wouldn't harm a single cell in his body. Still, the teenager couldn't repress the burning urge to bolt to safety. 

"Dream, you..." Akumu shifted his body slightly to the right as the young woman summoned out all of her mana. The lake rippled wildly as the luminous reflection faded away. Above Dream's white hair, there was now an ostentatious diamond tiara with white gold crystals falling from its top. Almost as bright as the moon itself, the diamond tiara exuded a majesty that only an Imperial should have. Gazing into the gems, Akumu felt his entire soul being scoured and his being scrutinised from head to toe. 

A Queen had descended upon the lake.

Before her majesty, Akumu didn't dare to raise his head. Such divine power wasn't suited for mortal souls to witness, and the teenager didn't feel worthy to gaze at Dream's beauty. For that very moment that Dream summoned out her Spirit, she seemed to transcend all boundaries of mortality, making her a supreme being that could match any Spirit Saint in existence.

Of course, that was all in Akumu's mind. 

"The Crown of Wisdom..." Akumu gulped and thoughtlessly blurted out the Spirit's name. Everyone who knew of Dream's legend had heard of the Crown of Wisdom's name. Due to Dream's and Yume Metropolis' tight secret-keeping, not much is known about the enigmatic Spirit. Even Akumu, who had known Dream for ten years, hadn't seen the Crown of Wisdom in action. 

It was the first of its kind, a Spirit that was blessed by the Mind-Elements. It was able to propel Dream's cultivation level by leaps and bounds. At twenty-two-years-old, she was already in the Rank 60 Spirit King realm. If Dream had focused all of her attention into cultivation instead of her dedication to science, she could very well be among the upper echelons of cultivators. 

Dream knew that Akumu was still a Rank 19 Spirit Apostle so she'd gently helped the teenager to his feet. With one of the gentlest smiles she'd worn, Dream asked the young teen: "That's right, this is my Spirit the Crown of Wisdom. What do you think?"

"It's… beautiful..." Akumu stammered, still bewitched by the gorgeous display.

"Haha, I guess it would look that way to others." Dream shrugged her shoulders as she calmed down the Mind-Elements that congregated at her location. She took the Crown of Wisdom off her head, holding the diamond tiara on both ends. Dream looked at the crown like a mother would to a disappointing child. Many saw the Crown of Wisdom as a mythical Spirit that could boost one's cultivation a thousand-fold. However, Dream didn't think of the object that way. 

To her… Possessing the crown was a curse.

"It looks beautiful on the outside, but internally, the Crown of Wisdom is perhaps the world's most vile Spirit."

"Huh?" Akumu was stunned by Dream's words. They said the most beautiful of roses had the sharpest thorns. Was it the same with the exquisite crown that every single soul in the world lusted for?

"Akumu, do you know what my innate spiritual ability is?" Dream continued, her eyes still flashed the disgust that she had for the crown. 

"What is it?" 

"The power to read all minds."

"..." Akumu fell silent. 

Till this point, only a few from the upper brass knew of Dream's spiritual abilities. No, other than the Governor, the rest only had an inkling of what Dream's real powers were. Though, no one really complained. After all, Dream was their golden goose, their ticket to a brighter future. It didn't matter where Dream's source of power came from, as long as she continued to produce results, no one would bother her. No matter how dastardly her ability was...

"Or to be more specific, my innate spiritual power automatically reads all information from the minds of those that are within my effective radius. It doesn't matter if they're a Spirit Saint or a regular human being. As long as they're within my radius, I would be able to obtain everything in their lives. Their memories from childhood... Their expertise in their craft… Their knowledge of any science or cultivation-related matters… In but an instant, I would suck up their entire life's worth of information and store them in the Crown of Wisdom."

"... What?"

Dream just dropped a bombshell upon Akumu. To become a scientist, one needed to spend at least ten years in school, learning as much knowledge as they possibly could from dead books and even more boring professors. After that, they would have to do their post-graduate studies and prove that they were capable of holding the doctorate title. And that was just an ordinary scientist. If one wanted to become a leader in a field, one needed to spend decades, if not centuries, dedicating their time and effort to the science. 

It took an average person years to reach that level, and many fail along the way. Yet, with the Crown of Wisdom, Dream could match a master scientist in a split second. The same went for the high-levelled cultivators. Dream would suck in all of their combat experiences, their successes and failures when it came to cultivation… Nothing was left to Dream's imagination as she simply needed to be near people at the top of their respective fields to absorb all of their knowledge.

That was the real reason why Dream was called the greatest genius of all time. As long as there were humans around, she could learn all of their past experiences and supplement her own path. When she was a child, Dream was only exposed to weaker humans that had limited knowledge. However, at times, quantity beat out quality. Dream absorbed the information of the local butcher, the cathedral's priest, the librarian… Every single one of those that Dream was exposed to gave her a sliver of wisdom that would be hard found for a child her age. 

With the Crown of Wisdom, Dream was forced to mature rapidly, and she forged out a path all on her own. As she climbed up the ranks, she absorbed the knowledge of world-leading scientists, powerful cultivators that dominated their lands, and every single government official in Yume Metropolis. Even the esteemed guests that routinely came to the city to visit her weren't spared. In the end, Dream had become a human library, far more extensive than anything mere mortals could build.

"That's the source of my power… The reason why I'm the smartest person who will ever live..." Dream said some egotistical words, but her demeanour wasn't haughty at all. She held onto a straight expression as if she were just saying a statement of fact. 

Dream tilted her head and placed the crown back onto it. Looking back at Akumu, the beauty said: "In terms of intelligence, I'm probably around the same level as you, Akumu. Even without the crown, I would probably go onto the scientific route, since that's my calling. However, with the Crown of Wisdom, I have a database that far outstrips that of any other person."

"That's… absurd..." Akumu had barely any strength to muster a response. Dream's innate ability was far too powerful. Even the world's greatest Spirit Saints could only be humbled by Dream's overpowered ability and watch in agony as she passed them by in knowledge and cultivation. 

"I know," Dream replied with a weak smile. "I didn't ask for this ability, but the Crown of Wisdom gave it to me anyway. That's why I'm afraid..." 

The young maiden peered back into the mansion where the world's top dignitaries were awaiting. Many of them were Spirit Venerates who ruled over their territories. A handful were scientists that hadn't met Dream yet and were here to mingle with the greatest genius of all time. While some were just opportune merchants that wished to get in the good books of Dream. With all those influential people gathered in one location, all Dream needed to do was to walk down the halls, and the Crown of Wisdom would absorb all of their information.

"Those people in the ball… They're all leaders of countries, top scientists and monopolistic business people. If I absorbed all of their knowledge… What would I learn? What would become of me? Will I… see the world differently?" 

It was a genuine fear of the genius. If Dream absorbed all of the information in that ballroom, she would unquestionably know everything about the current world. All of the government secrets… All of the theories of the world… What relationships were being fostered behind closed doors… Everything would be hers to read. 

Dream was afraid… She was worried that the Crown of Wisdom would force her to change her life once more, just like it did when her parents passed to the Netherworld. 

"Am I… a monster?" Dream asked Akumu, who had been silent throughout. Did finding out about Dream's true ability change the teenager's perception of her? Did Akumu now see Dream as a monster?

"No… No, you're not." The youth shook his head. At that moment, the fear that the Crown of Wisdom brought seemingly dissipated into nothingness. Akumu couldn't see the trembling young woman as a menace to all of mankind. Instead, Dream looked like an angel that had lost its halo. She needed someone… to bring her radiance back.

"You're the world's greatest genius," Akumu replied.

"Didn't you hear what I said? I'm a fraud! Without this crown, I'm-..."

"... nothing?" Akumu finished Dream's sentence for her. "Don't kid yourself, Dream. Do you honestly think that there's anyone on the planet that could use the crown's power like you could? Do you think that all of your accomplishments were because of other's knowledge?"

The teenager berated Dream for her foolishness. "The reason why you're this successful. The reason why you've been making discovery after discovery. It's because of your own effort!"

"T-that!"

Dream was oblivious. She was oblivious to the fact that Akumu had been watching her all this time. He'd seen how much time and effort Dream had put into her craft. When others were sleeping, she would be toiling away in the laboratory, hoping to figure out the next significant discovery. When Dream was eating, she would discuss topics relating to her research with a beaming smile on her face. During her free time, Dream would draw random blueprints for her next project. Dream was dedicated to her craft, almost to a fault. Yes, the Crown of Wisdom gave her an excellent springboard, but it was Dream's own effort that had taken her this far. 

"Dream, don't worry about knowing everything there is to the world." Akumu placed both his hands on Dream's shoulders and stared her right in the eye. "So what if you know everything? That's a good thing! You will be the beacon of light that would illuminate the future of mankind, leading them into a brighter tomorrow!"

"Akumu, you..." Dream flinched. Those words were her signature. Having those words being parroted right to her face… It was quite a unique experience. It took a while, but eventually… Dream's smile came running right back to her face.

"HAHAHA!!! You're right! I'm the world's greatest genius that will lead the world into a brighter tomorrow!" The girl chortled. 

"Now that's more like the Dream I know," Akumu relaxed his shoulders, and his hands dropped back to his sides. At that moment, he could hear a distant noise coming from the mansion. "Oh right, I'm supposed to bring you back…" Akumu finally remembered the reason why he'd come towards the lake in the first place. 

"Dream, we should hurry on back now. Everyone is waiting for you." Akumu grabbed onto Dream's hand, ready to bring her back into the ballroom to finish the party.

"..." However, Dream didn't move an inch. The breathtaking woman had her head down as if she were contemplating some life-altering decision. In the end, Dream simply sighed as she pinched Akumu's outreached hand to get his attention. "Hey, Akumu… Can I ask you a question?"

"Sure, what is it?"

Dream was in a daze. She didn't know where to start. Still, Dream had to ask this question; otherwise, she wouldn't be able to live with herself. 

"Akumu… Have you heard of Heaven's Gate?"
