Crack, crack, crack...

The knife and the fork slowly cut the unknown piece of meat in front of him, making a slight sound.

Lucian sat quietly at one of the seats at the table, feeling both immersed and somewhat detached.

He felt very strange now, just like the role-playing games he had played before crossing over. He was now a player controlling the little girl [Lula], and the joys and sorrows of the little girl in front of him had nothing to do with him. All he had to do was...play.

After having this mentality, Lucian's spirit gradually relaxed. He seemed to have found the feeling of playing games before. Except for the fact that "playing a female character" made him a little embarrassed at the beginning, Lucian soon adjusted himself completely and began to test the "freedom" of this dream.

"Oops." Soon, under Lucian's control, the fork in [Lula's] hand fell to the ground.

"Why are you so careless." [Mother Meia]'s voice sounded gently, and she rubbed Lula's hair at the same time.

Of course, from Lucian's perspective, [Mother Meia's] arm went straight through his body, and part of his body "went through the model" when he was rubbing his head.

"My real body seems to be between reality and illusion. At least when interacting with the identity of this world, it is in a state of 'parallel time and space'. I don't know if there will be any changes after night..."

Lucian slowly memorized these details, and at the same time quickly familiarized himself with his identity without arousing suspicion from others. After rubbing it for almost a morning, he also had a preliminary understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of his identity.

First of all, [Lula] is the youngest daughter of the head of a large family in the dream, and has a high status.

Although some settings of this family seem to be deliberately blurred in Lucian's memory, at least in this dream, Lucian understands that the family of his cheap identity has a great influence, and there is even a knight group loyal to the family. Perhaps under his guidance, part of the power of this family can be borrowed by himself.

The second advantage is the age of this identity.

Perhaps because of her identity as a child, her "degree of freedom" is very high, and other characters basically won't be too wary of her, and will even chat about some topics next to her.

Although they think their chat voices are small enough, these voices are extremely clear under Lucian's keen perception of the first-level wizard level. Obviously, he can get some hidden information through this inadvertent "passing by" without worrying about the problem of his "personality collapse".

After all, what bad thoughts can a child have?

The third advantage comes from the relationship of [Lula].

As a favored "little princess" in the family, [Lula] can ask her "brother" and "parents" for help to a certain extent, and she is even a good friend of the dream master [Rafar]. With such a relationship as a guarantee, it will be much easier for Lucian to go to any key place in the future.

And with advantages, there are naturally disadvantages, and the disadvantages of this [Lula] identity are also obvious.

The biggest one is that it is difficult for her to have the opportunity to truly act independently. Even when she is walking in the family garden, there will be two maids following her from a distance, fearing that she will be out of their sight at some point.

This is the protection of [Lula]'s parents for her, but for Lucian, this protection is a kind of restraint in most cases, making it difficult for her to let go and do something, otherwise her "acting" may be suspected by other people or "NPCs".

The second disadvantage is that her current identity is easy to be passively involved in certain key nodes of the dream and become a marginal character in the "plot".

For example, [Lula] and the dream core [Rafar] are old friends, so tomorrow she will go to [Rafar]'s house with her parents.

Lucian cannot change this schedule at all. After all, he plays [Lula] in the dream, and it is impossible for him to change the long-planned visit plan with his own ability. He can only be forced to accept the fact that he is about to come into contact with the dream core, and this kind of event will continue to happen in the subsequent dream activities.

This force majeure event will force Lucian to contact some people he doesn't really want to contact at this stage, and will inevitably contact some "players", adding some uncontrollable risks to his activities in the dream.

"Thanasis, what exactly is the information in the 'real place' that you want to know? And where is the dream crystal you mentioned before?"

While Lucian was playing the role of the little girl [Lula], he was also communicating secretly with Count Sanasis through mental connection. He was a little glad that Count Sanasis followed him in, otherwise it might be more awkward to immerse himself in this "playing" process.

"It hasn't been found yet. As for the dream crystal you mentioned... it's what you are holding in your hand now."

Count Thanasis responded, but his voice sounded a little tired. It was obvious that he was also greatly affected by this kind of real place. Although he was not completely sealed like Wizard Helen, his spirit was obviously a little weak. When Lucian didn't call, his consciousness was in a state of half-dream and half-awake.

"All?" Lucian was stunned. He looked at the glass of water in [Lula's] hand and blinked.

Is this the Dream Crystal?

"That thing is not a rare thing in the dream world at all. It's just... somewhat similar to the high-purity magic stone in your wizarding world."

Count Thanasis's voice was full of exhaustion, "But I still want to remind you, don't be too immersed in the role you play in this dream, otherwise you will gradually get lost. Also... pay attention to special things. ink……"

"Thanasis?"

"Count Thanasis?"

Lucian was listening carefully, but Count Thanasis' voice stopped abruptly mid-sentence. Although Lucian called again and again, Count Thanasis did not respond and seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep due to the suppression of the real place.

After losing Count Thanasis as a half-hearted commentator, Lucian had to think independently about how to decipher the dream of "the real place".

"Using the analogy of playing games in previous lives, this kind of role-playing game must have some kind of main mission, and the 'ink' that Thanasis mentioned should be some kind of extremely useful prop in this game. What I should do most now are three things: figure out the main line of this 'dream script', collect ink, and find out the other 'players', at least to determine the identity of the other party."

In the study, the small [Lula] was sitting on the floor, flipping through picture books, while Lucian took this opportunity to sort out his thoughts.

Suddenly, Lucian felt that the thread of his spiritual power that had escaped seemed to touch something. He raised his head as if he was aware of it. However, because he had to restrain his breath and not be noticed by others, he did not dare to use his spiritual power to detect it. Therefore, I don't know why my mental power was triggered.

"Is there anyone? But this is the study room. Theoretically, only the master can come in..." Lu Xian thought quickly, and soon he had a conjecture in his mind. At the same time, he quickly gathered his thoughts and focused his attention. On the children's picture book in front of me.

Squeak——

The study door was gently pushed open from the outside, and then a maid holding cleaning tools walked in.

Although her expression looked calm, when she noticed the "living person" Lucian existed in the study, there was still a hint of vague panic in her eyes.

"Little Miss..., why are you here?" The maid paused slightly, but quickly adjusted herself and showed a kind smile towards Lucian.

"I'm reading a book, sister, look, butterfly..." Lucian manipulated [Lula] to show an innocent smile. At the same time, he quickly judged the maid's status within the family through her clothes.

Wearing a black maid costume with no special markings on the cuffs, she looks more like an ordinary handyman maid... According to the rules, she is definitely not qualified to enter the study room. After all, this is an important area of ​​the family, even if she is responsible for The maid who cleans is at least at the level of a personal maid...

Lucian did not observe the maid too much. After all, too much gaze might arouse the other party's vigilance. However, in his heart, Lucian had already placed a special label on this maid. In his analysis, this maid The "rash" maid is very suspicious of a "player".

"It seems that even within [Lula]'s family, there are already a certain number of 'players'. However, before I am sure of the situation, it is best not to act rashly. Maybe this guy is someone else's deliberate act." The purpose of the targets left behind is to detect whether there are other 'players' within the family..."

Many thoughts flashed through Lucian's mind, but on the surface he seemed quite calm. He even took the initiative to move his position when the maid was cleaning the study.

"Miss...Miss...!" At this moment, a shout from one of [Lula's] personal maids came from outside the door. Following the sound of footsteps, she opened the study door directly and saw a man holding a girl in his arms. After reading this picture book, Lula breathed a sigh of relief.

"Huh, miss, you came here alone." Mir breathed a sigh of relief, bent down slightly and took Lula's little hand, but soon she noticed something and turned to look at the person who was pretending at this time. The maid cleaning the study.

"Who are you? Who is the head maid in charge? Who asked you to clean the study?"
