One year ago, we officially named the land as Arcadia and declared it as our main home. 

Occasionally, we visit the land due to our busy schedules, and we maintain communication through letter-writing. On some occasions, my siblings and their friends would stay on the land for peaceful picnics, enjoying the tranquility and the gentle breeze. 

The land has been publicly acknowledged by my father, who has informed the entire world about it. There are some races who express interest in visiting Arcadia, so I have established a teleportation portal to facilitate their arrival. Some even express a desire to live in Arcadia permanently. 

While I approve of their intention, I inform them that the land will relocate on a predetermined date, ensuring them that the transition will be smooth and free from any disruptions, as I have planted gravitational infinity before. From the teleportation portal, granting them the ability to teleport wherever they desire. 

I have actively participated in the construction and development of the land. 

The houses within Arcadia are built using a mix of modern and traditional materials, such as stone, wood, contemporary stone, and stuart silk. 

As for me, today is a break from my academic duties, and I am currently residing in Arcadia Castle, enjoying the beginning of a new day after having my lunch.

In the living room is a contemporary art showcase against a white plain stone wall. 

I am reclining on a large gray couch positioned behind the sitting area's glass window, providing an outside view. 

At the moment, I am engrossed in a book, enjoying a relaxing moment. 

"Rin."

However, my tranquility is interrupted as someone calls out my name. I was startled, the book fell from my face, and I quickly remove it. 

It's Sena. 

I feel a sense of embarrassment as she covers her mouth with her left hand, attempting to suppress her laughter.

"I...fuh...wanted...haa...to see you."

Cute, she manages to explain. 

Despite feeling embarrassed, I find her actions quite endearing.

"It's alright, Sena."

I said, and she approaches me, and I can't help but blush. 

With her presence, my heart races. 

"Don't sit up, just keep reading.

I consider adjusting my posture and sitting up, but she insisted. 

I take a pause, wondering if something is amiss. 

"...Sena──"

Before I could say anything, she surprises me by lying on my chest with unwavering confidence. 

"I just want to lay next to you," she confesses and I was taken aback.

"Sena, how have you been?"

"As usual."

"Did you eat already?" 

"Yes," she said, and I expressed relief. Suddenly, her attention falls upon my book, "Fuhahafuhaha," she burst into laughter once again. 

Cute.

"I-I'm sorry, but I find it amusing that the book accidentally hit you in the face."

"Ahafuhaha," I couldn't help but laugh.

"Rin?" she said while smiling.

"...It's endearing how you possess different kinds of attitudes."

"Did you really find it cute? ── Hgn," she chuckled but I gently kissed her forehead and she rested her head on my shoulder.

"Rin, thank you for accepting me and embracing my true self." 

"Sena, you are unique, and I want you to know that you hold a very special place in my heart."

"Good to know. It's just the two of us for now, and I cherish having you all to myself."

"Sena I will always be here for you, you mean everything to me."

"Only me."

"Only you."

"Why did you stop reading?" she asked.

"Because I prioritize spending time with you. Sena you are more important to me than anything else."

"...Yes."

It brings me joy to see you smile once again. 

"...Have you visited the dungeon today? How is the world's longest dungeon? Is everything alright?"

"It is quite busy at the moment as I am currently accompanying my friends. As we progress further, the challenges we face become more formidable. Therefore, we make sure to acquire additional knowledge and share our findings in the world guild hall adventures."

Deadly monster, what a strange dungeon. 

....Colleagues.

"I would appreciate the opportunity to join you in the future."

"Indeed, that is reassuring to hear," I observed her yawning.

"Sena, you seem exhausted It is best for you to take some rest."

"Yes, please refrain from carrying me to bed like you did last time. I would genuinely be upset. Let us enjoy this moment a little longer; I am truly happy to be in your presence."

"I just deeply care for you and I feel the same way. ...I'll just read."

"Very well."

"Sleep peacefully."

...I am captivated by your presence.

After a few minutes had passed.

I set the book aside.

I have recently completed reading a literary piece pertaining to the world.

To avoid creating unnecessary noise, I refrained from turning multiple pages.

I gazed at her.

Each time I behold her, she becomes more beautiful.

I embraced her tenderly, ensuring not to disturb her slumber.

...I will forever remain by your side.

With closed eyes, I begin to envision various scenarios.

I yearned for a tranquil existence alongside her.

My consciousness is lulled.

-

Under the moonlight, the atmosphere presents itself with tempestuousness, while the ground poses a destructive threat to the natural ecosystem and structure. 

Familiar figures surround me, their collective presence filled with anxiety. 

From my vantage point, I see my mother standing before me. 

/Bang!

Suddenly, a loud impact resonates, accompanied by her fist slicing through the air, as if carrying the power of lightning. 

As a result, I am thrown to the ground, experiencing intense pain in my muscles.

"Aarrghh." 

"It has been five months since you left us, daughter. Finally, we have located you and have heard of your actions. You are still young and not yet ready to bear such responsibilities. Come back home, for we anxiously await your return." 

I struggle to stand as I determined to rise, only to be met with my mother's words. 

"Dear, d-don't went too far. My daughter do not wander too far because I worry for your well-being."

Despite the persuasions and pleas, I gather my strength to stand up.

"...I-I will not engage in a fight. However, I will not return home just yet. There is much I must accomplish. I will reveal to them the depths of despair and wickedness," I proclaim.

"Rin, please cease your actions at once."

"Mother, I will not cease my efforts until their hiding places are eradicated. I am determined to locate them regardless of their whereabouts or land. I intend to eradicate them due to the harm they have caused to the person I hold most dear."

"You did manage to heal her, as she regained consciousness after you disappeared. She is actively searching for you and your siblings, we have all been missing you, Rin."

"Mother, that fateful day still haunts me. Her condition was severely impaired and she suffered lacerations. What if it were to happen again? It might happen to all of you. I refuse to let that happen. I genuinely care for all of you, and I cannot bear to witness your suffering and distress. Each and every one of you holds immense significance to me."

"Rin, we are currently in a stable state. Please entrust us with this matter, will you?"

"...Grandmother, they must face the consequences for their actions," I stated firmly as I turned away and began walking slowly.

「Gravity Dominance」

"Just stay still. ...I apologize everyone, but I kindly request that you do not impede my progress."

"C-Come back here," Savio pleaded, struggling to move.

"Rin!"

The perspective view suddenly darkened and disappeared.

"Ri."

"—Rin!"

"Sena...?" Upon hearing her call, I woke up from my stun.

She seemed concerned, was facing me and gently touching my face. 

"What happened?! You're sweating too much," she expressed worry over my excessive perspiration and sought to understand what had happened. 

At that moment, I found myself at a loss for words. 

I sensing my discomfort, she stepped back and I adjusted my posture, taking a seat. 

Sena proceeded to wipe away my cold sweat with a handkerchief. 

In the midst of my confusion, I contemplated the meaning behind these vivid dreams and resolved to exercise caution. 

...I had already assured those around me that I would strive to maintain control. 

Overwhelmed by these conflicting emotions, my deepest longing was to lead a tranquil life with Sena by my side. 

 "Sena, thank you."

I expressed my gratitude, I murmured a simple, prompting her to embrace me. 

"Rin, what happened?"

She inquired about what had transpired, prompting me to share the details of my dream. 

As she caressed my cheeks and lifted my head, I gazed into her eyes. 

"How we feel, how we overcome, how we look in life until our soul deepens. It happened out of the blue so don't think too much. Rin, I'll be fine, no obstacle could overcome me."

With a reassuring tone, she reminded me that life often presents unexpected challenges, and urged me not to dwell too deeply on this occurrence.  

"It was insane. ...Sena be safe always." 

The intensity of the situation prompted me to tightly embrace her back.

"Yes."

There are instances when we experience dreams involving real-life events due to our egocentric tendencies being fixated on something that needs to be done. 

It isn't always easy to control our own.
