My Husband Hates Me, But He Lost His Memories Chapter 72.2

Published at 17th of November 2023 01:26:37 PM

Somnia’s words were veiled like an enigma, so I couldn’t understand. However, what I knew for sure was that this dream spirit found me favorable. I could feel it.

Dreams transcend the limitations of time and space.

“…….”

Past, present and future influence each other.

Somnia’s form shrank and changed into a snake biting its own tail. And it wrapped around my wrists like two bracelets. …Or, perhaps handcuffs. I couldn’t really tell if it was my feeling or not, but I had a hunch that I wouldn’t ever be able to take it off.

Right now, I will delve into your memories.

“…….”

To know who you are.

“…….”

If I like you, I shall allow you to enter a contract with me.

“…….”

If I don’t like you, I shall devour you.

With Somnia’s words, the small light nearby trembled. But Somnia didn’t seem to care about the small light.

Then, sleep well.

After hearing that voice, I fell into a light sleep.

Countless memories flitted by. From the most recent to the oldest. Somnia looked through everything that was within me.

I could feel the dream spirit roaming my mind and memory. It was a strange, indescribable sensation.

Time seemed to stretch out for a very long time, and it seemed to be scattered in all directions. The past and the present did not lie on a straight line, but circled round and round.

I could even see the future, but it was only an instant. After seeing what lay before me, it was soon wiped clean from my consciousness. I tried to think about it again, but I couldn’t. Like a dream I can’t remember.

Now, I have looked at it all.

After an immeasurable amount of time passed, Somnia finally spoke. I felt as if I had been stripped of my soul. Somnia uncovered everything about me. Maybe, even the part I don’t know.

Rejoice, Lily. I’ve taken a liking to you. Instead of swallowing you up, I shall be on your side. until the day you die.

In the dream, Somnia was nowhere to be seen. It seemed that Somnia was the dream itself. So I could feel Somnia’s presence shaking the entire unconscious space in which I was standing.

Her presence is so huge, and… It felt infinitely cruel, yet infinitely generous. It was very bizarre.

Well, it’s time to get back to reality.

And I woke up from the dream.

“Hah…”

[ Sister! Are you okay?! ]

The small light flew around me. My body lay on the cold floor of the stone chamber. My body temperature was so low that it was acceptable that she hadn’t died.

Shuddering, I got up. Then as I gently patted the small light, I replied,

“I’m okay…”

[ Your lips are blue! ]

“I think my body temperature dropped for a moment. It will be fine. Don’t worry.”

[ Still…! ]

The small light flew here and there around me, not knowing what to do.

Seeing that small light, I suddenly thought of Charlotte… She must be very worried about me by now. I have to go back. To do so…

‘…Somnia?’

I called the dream spirit in my heart. Then there was a response right away. From deep inside me, a great power slowly awakened.

Somnia appeared in reality and wrapped around my body in the form of purple fog. It felt like a hug.

“Somnia, I have to get out of here. Can you help me?”

I can help you, however…

Somnia paused a little, then spoke again.

You will die before even reaching the surface.

“…….”

It was as it was said. It wouldn’t be strange if I fell unconscious right now. I’ve been able to hold on to it somehow with my mental strength, but it seems that I’ve reached my limit in the end.

My vision was blurry and my head was spinning. I hadn’t eaten, so my stomach was throbbing, and there was also a ringing in my eardrums. My heart was beating with difficulty, squeezing out the last bit of strength, foreseeing the end.

Somnia’s purple form caressed my cheek and whispered.

If you go on like this, you will die.

“…….”

For the price of forgetting one of your memories, I can bestow upon you some life force.

…Something like that… was possible? It was hard to believe.

While I stood there, stunned, Somnia’s shape spread out as wide as the night sky, and moving pictures appeared above it…

No, they weren’t pictures.

Those were my memories.

So, take your pick. What memories do you want to forget?
