Chapter 311

~6 min read 1,182 words

A trace of lament flickered across old Grisa's aged face.

【Every time we part, the children cling to this patch of dreamscape, reluctant to leave.】

【But I have walked every corner of the Dreamscape World and spoken to every person there, and they all told me this shattered dream..... 367. is not worth lingering over.】

The Robin had long since taken action,

observing every corner of the Dreamscape World from top to bottom.

That was how she was able to discover

what made these children different.

【Heh, worthy indeed of the Harmony's Child of Song, just as everyone expected.】

【Emma and Andy are both orphans I took in; blind Karlo works in a nutrition ward on Penacony's outer ring; Gary has had autism since childhood.】

【They are not yet adults, so they cannot enter the family's Sweetdream Paradise.】

【If people are like birds, these children are fledglings born with broken wings.】

【But in this patch of dreamscape, they can grow whole wings.】

【Though their flight is clumsy and stumbling, they are soaring by their own strength.】

【As for me, an old man who has lost both legs.......】

【Without this patch of dreamscape, I couldn't even walk to where they are.】

Grisa introduced each of the children in turn,

her tone touched with emotion.

【I'm glad you've begun a new life within the dreams of Penacony.】

【Only.......】

The Robin glanced at Grisa, who seemed to want to say more but held back.

【Don't worry, Miss Robin.】

【Dreams have meaning, but they are not everything. The children and I both understand this—no matter how long we fly within the dream, we must eventually fly back to reality.】

【But look—Emma and Gary are no longer insecure, Karlo is gradually learning to face the troubles of her blindness, Andy is far more lively than before, and even I have grown more optimistic.】

【We learn to live in the dream, then return to reality... and learn to survive.】

Grisa saw things with perfect clarity,

having long understood that though the dreamscape is wonderful, one cannot stay in it for long.

If your wings are broken and incomplete, then lend your wings to one another.

【We need not cling to the illusory sky of dreams, for we have the right, and the ability..... to fly toward a vaster heaven and earth.】

Zhong Li: "Learn to live in the dream, then return to reality and learn to survive..."

Zhong Li: "I have to say, this old woman is a person of great wisdom!"

Dr. Ratio: "To see things so clearly—she is already stronger than ninety-five percent of the people in Penacony!"

Furina: "The meaning of the dreamscape's existence is brought out in full, vivid relief at this very moment."

Furina: "Without the dreamscape, these birds born with broken wings would have no hope of ever knowing what it feels like to soar."

Nahida: "For them, the dreamscape is no longer a place of mere pleasure."

Nahida: "It is a spiritual anchor."

Nahida: "This spiritual anchor will strengthen their hearts and minds, giving them the courage to face the tragic realities of life head-on!"

Stelle: "So you see, the dreamscape isn't all that bad."

Stelle: "For certain people, what the Dreamscape World can bring them is far more precious than so-called pleasure."

March 7th: "You're right—the meaning of the dreamscape's existence truly cannot be ignored."

March 7th: "But Penacony's Sweetdream Paradise is still far from being meaningful."

March 7th: "Because the people who truly need the dreamscape can't even get into Penacony in the first place!"

Collei: "Yeah..."

Collei: "Because these children aren't adults yet, they can't enter Penacony's Sweetdream Paradise at all—they can only stay in the Dreamscape World."

Collei: "But... even if they grow up, can they really enter Penacony's Sweetdream Paradise?"

Eula: "The threshold for Penacony's Sweetdream Paradise is so high—ordinary people trying to enter feels as hard as scaling the heavens."

Bronya: "Precisely because of that, Penacony's Sweetdream Paradise hasn't fulfilled the value and meaning it ought to have."

Stelle: "Tsk tsk tsk—then let's tear the whole thing down!!"

Stelle: "And build a meaningful Sweetdream Paradise from scratch!"

Brother Dan Heng: "Making enemies of the Family... that isn't exactly a wise choice."

March 7th: "But isn't that what we Trailblazers are for—rising to meet the challenge?"

Welt: "Mm, we don't necessarily have to make enemies of the Family."

Welt: "So long as the Family continues to practice the ideals of Harmony."

Nilou: "But from the looks of it now, the one who has practiced Harmony the deepest is actually Miss Robin, that big star who's almost never in Penacony..."

Lumine: "Indeed, Miss Robin really leaves nothing to criticize."

Lumine: "She has always wanted to lend her strength to others, to encourage them to keep moving forward."

Lumine: "Now that is the true meaning of using the strong to aid the weak."

Paimon: "If your wings are broken and incomplete, then we lend our wings to one another..."

Paimon: "Miss Robin's words really moved Paimon to tears."

Venti: "To be able to utter such a golden saying—Miss Robin truly lives up to the name Harmony's Child of Song!"

Robin: "You're all too kind..... I'm only doing whatever little I can."

Robin: "The Son of Harmony or whatever... it's just an empty title in the end, and it can't really offer any extra help to the people who need it..."

Sunday: "Don't be discouraged, Robin."

Sunday: "You've already done well enough."

Sunday: "You're the pride of the family, and my pride too."

Stelle: "What do you mean, the pride of the family, your pride?"

Stelle: "This is clearly everyone's pride!!"

Stelle: "You guys agree, right?"

Guinaifen: "Agreed!"

Guinaifen: "Miss Robin is everyone's pride!"

Guinaifen: "When Miss Robin holds another concert in the future, I definitely have to go to the venue in person to make a call!"

Guinaifen: "Shangshang, are you going?"

Miss Sushang: "I'd love to go, but the Cloud Knights might not give us time off!"

Miss Qingque: "Isn't that simple?"

Miss Qingque: "Just skip work!"

Miss Qingque: "Uh..... umm.... why doesn't this livestream have an undo function?!"

Diviner Fu Xuan: "Skipping work, is it? Said what's really on your mind, did you?"

Diviner Fu Xuan: "Go on, skip it in front of me?"

Stelle: "Skip it and skip it, when our Boss Qing skips work, isn't that only natural and proper?"

Stelle: "You little Fu Xuanzi daring to boss Boss Qing around is practically heaven and earth being flipped upside down!!"

Stelle: "Believe it or not, I'll fire you right now? (smug. jpg)"

Miss Qingque: "Stelle, shut up quick!!"

Miss Qingque: "Ahaha, my lord Diviner, I was only joking."

Miss Qingque: "With an elder like you around, how would I dare skip work?"

Diviner Fu Xuan: "Mm, best you don't dare."

Diviner Fu Xuan: "Otherwise, if I catch you, you absolutely won't get off easy!"

Stelle: "Sigh, the great General Qing ultimately still can't escape the Diviner's clutches......."

The video continues.

【I'm very glad to see you're safe and sound, Miss Robin.】

Robin had already come before the Trailblazer,

Seeing this, Himeko smiled and said a line.
