“You know what? I had a dream again last night.”

Hao Ren swallowed a mouthful of buns before mumbling during breakfast.

Halfway through filling Y’lisbet’s bowl with rice, Vivian paused and looked at Hao Ren with concern. “What precognitive dreams did you have again?”

“Bah, it was a mess,” Hao Ren said. “Maybe I’ve been watching too many movies recently. I dreamed of a large group of Vikings battling the Ming Dynasty navy; Poseidon and Osiris; a bunch of gods fighting in the desert; a sea of guns and fire; and finally Bai Qi, the Qin general. He led 200,000-strong soldiers, crushed the gate of Troy and killed Octavian on his throne.”

Lily, who was burying her head in her bowl, was baffled upon hearing about Hao Ren’s dreams. She lifted her head from the rice bowl and asked, “That’s a mess, Mr. Landlord. Did you just dreamed of the complete history of the world?”

“That is why we call it a dream; there is no logic in dreams,” Hao Ren said, taking a sip of rice porridge, then wiping the rice and oil off his face. “When will the cat learn to use chopsticks properly?”

Sitting across the dining table, Nangong Wuyue said, “She has made much progress. At least she already knows how to use chopsticks. Unlike previously, she used to bury her face in the bowl and scoop up the food with her tongue. Speaking of dreaming, I have also dreamed last night.”

“What did you dream about?” Hao Ren asked, feeling curious.

“A bunch of ancient people fought among themselves. Perhaps I have had too many historical dramas,” Nangong Wuyue said as she gently swayed the tip of her tail. “The Persians fought with the Egyptians. I am not so sure though. They rode camels, carriages, wielded scimitars, bows, and arrows. It was especially lively. At last, a bunch of German soldiers carrying assault rifles emerged—this baffled me.”

“You two had almost a similar dream,” Vivian said with a smile. “It was all a mess of history.”

“Battie, do you not usually dream?” Lily said after swallowing a steamed bun.

“Ordinary Blood Clans do not dream, but I do not have this restriction. I dream occasionally. But last, I had a sound sleep until I woke up at six. I have not slept so well for a long time,” Vivian said and blinked.

“You have suffered from lack of sleep for a long time for sure,” Hao Ren said with his mouth twitched. “Are you feeling more alert now? Do you still have hallucinations?”

“I don’t hallucinate all the time,” Vivian said, feeling a little helpless. “But I have not heard any voices since waking up this morning.”

“Hearing voices? What voices?” Lily asked like a curious bunny.

“Sit back down! Don’t be a busybody,” Hao Ren said and shoved the husky back to her chair. “Vivian said that she always heard someone calling her name in the past two days. I suspect that she suffers from lack of sleep,” Hao Ren said.

“Aw— I thought it was a big deal,” Lily said. She was a little disappointed with the answer.

Everyone sat at the table, having their breakfast, chitchatting, and spending their morning in a leisure atmosphere. It was a daily scene in Hao Ren’s house, but to Lorrisa, it was a novel experience. Lorissa curiously looked at everyone at the table and almost zoned out, forgetting that she was supposed to eat her breakfast. At last, Nangong Sanba said, “Why don’t you eat?”

“Oh…oh, I was a little distracted,” Lorissa replied as Nangong Sanba’s question jolted her out of her thought. “I have never eaten with many people before, so I feel a bit odd.”

“I looked okay during dinner last night,” Nangong Sanba said.

“I was still a little confused at that time, and feeling everything was new to me,” Lorissa said.

“So how did you spend your time in the experimental base?” Lily asked and curiously looked at the elven queen clone. “What did you do other than the experiments?”

“Other than the experiment? I did nothing outside the experiment,” Lorissa said, shrugging. “The daily experiment was enough to drain my energy. The rest of the time was just eating and sleeping. The good thing was, those people did not limit my freedom in the experimental base, and they would try their best to accommodate my needs except leaving the base. I did not have any hobbies though.”

“Did you not inherit the memory and personality of the elven queen? Did the queen not have any hobbies?”

“Her biggest hobby was work; she was a workaholic,” Lorissa said. “That was what caused schizophrenia in me. I was tired after the experiment, but there was a voice in my head that continuously urged me to work overtime. I sincerely thought that life like that was meaningless, but another voice kept suggesting that work is exciting and meaningful.

At last, she seemed to remember the pain of struggling with the inherited personality. She buried her head in her hands and cried, “Don’t talk about those things anymore. Those inherited memories and personalities are troubling.”

“Ahh, the elven magic empress was a workaholic,” Lily said. “No wonder she could become a queen.”
