Chapter 585: Family Conflict and King of Nightmares

"Don't... don't hit anymore..."

After a hellish mixed-gender "saving" session, the freckled Prince, who had been saved until he was bruised and swollen, and had fainted and woken up, really couldn't hold on anymore, directly hugged his head and curled into a ball, lying on the ground humming and protesting:

"I... I am a Prince after all, your Cleanup Bureau and the royal family have an agreement, to... to guarantee our safety..."

"Prince Watching Watching Qiaoshuya, you are being ungrateful when you say that."

After shaking his somewhat sore wrist, Leon, who had really saved him to his heart's content, marveled at the hardness of this guy's worldview—he was still thinking about his status as a Prince after such a fierce beating—while saying sincerely and nonsense:

"We are guaranteeing your safety now. After being saved by us for so long, do you feel much better? Is there no longer that strange feeling of being controlled and influenced?"

"..."

That feeling didn't exist in the first place, okay! I just wanted to know what happened to that dream!

Even if he hated to tear these two damn cleaners into pieces in his heart, the freckled Prince, who had received the first fierce beating in his life, was really a bit scared now, and nodded repeatedly with his butt stuck out:

"It's gone, it's gone, there's really no feeling at all, I have never felt so good!"

Watching Watching Qiaoshuya's worldview was just taught to be extremely crooked, not that his intelligence was naturally insufficient, so he naturally understood the subtext in Leon's words.

Feeling much better probably meant no more beating. As for the fact that there was no such feeling at all, it meant he was still being controlled and needed to be fiercely "saved" until he felt much better!

Then fine, I'm also comfortable.

Seeing that this live hedgehog finally softened, Leon, who had saved him for a long time, was also really tired of hitting, then turned his head to look at the tall beauty beside him, and asked politely:

"Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma, do you want to save him a few more times?"

"No, I've already vented my anger."

After returning a quite brilliant smile to Leon, Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma reminded:

"Leon, remember to treat his injuries before leaving, otherwise it won't be easy for you to explain when the investigators in the Bureau come down."

"Alright."

After nodding and responding, Leon took out the 【Plague-Stained Blood Bandage】, and amidst the freckled Prince's struggle and scream, forcibly pried open his arms that were hugging his head, and wrapped this dirty bandage around his head twice.

And accompanied by the health injected from the healthy fat chicken taken from the kitchen, the freckled Prince's face, which was swollen like a pig's head, only took more than ten seconds to reduce the swelling, revealing his original appearance again.

Finally... is it finally going to end?

After noticing that his face suddenly didn't hurt anymore, the freckled Prince hurriedly reached out to touch his face, and after discovering that the swelling had also subsided, he was almost moved to tears.

Although the destruction of the country and family last night was miserable, it happened in a dream after all, and the feeling wasn't that deep. That kind of extreme pain of cutting the heart and flesh slowly eased after waking up from the dream.

And this fierce beating just now was really painful!

He had never received such a poisonous beating in all these years since he was a child, except for a few bumps when he was a child, not even his father, the King, had only slapped him once... Ah!

"Tsk, why are you moving blindly?"

Looking at the freckled Prince who was slapped to the ground again and covered his face with a confused look, Leon couldn't help but frown, and said with dissatisfaction:

"I treated too much when I treated your injuries, and accidentally treated the slap from yesterday too. Beating you yesterday and today are for two reasons, one thing at a time, so I still have to imprint that slap back on you...

Get up! Put your hands down! Stand still and don't move! If it's crooked again this time, I'll have to slap you again!"

"Alright, alright, let's stop here."

Looking at the freckled Prince who was shivering and putting down his hands, with his eyes closed and a crying face, waiting for Leon to re-imprint the slap, Auntie Auntie Ai Ma couldn't help but shake her head, went over to hold Leon's arm, and pulled him, who was really preparing to slap again, out of the room. "Senior Auntie Auntie Ai Ma, why are you pulling me."

"Of course it's to let you cause less trouble!"

Looking at Leon who still seemed to have some unfinished business, Auntie Auntie Ai Ma couldn't help but say helplessly:

"No wonder the Director specifically instructed me before coming, letting me pull you as much as possible, you really are...

Leon, even if we found a reason that was barely okay, this time it will definitely attract investigators from the General Bureau. He has already admitted that it's fine, so you should stop. If you keep hitting him, there will be trouble."

"What trouble? I am saving him!"

Leon smiled after hearing this, then explained:

"Although I don't have memories in this regard, didn't his sister say that she had already agreed to my proposal? Since that's the case, then I am his brother-in-law in name.

A brother-in-law and a brother-in-law having a quarrel, slapping him twice lightly, and not using anomalous objects to hurt people, no matter how you think about it, this should belong to a family conflict, the General Bureau's investigators won't even manage this, right?"

Can it actually be done like this?

Hearing Leon's words, Auntie Auntie Ai Ma was slightly stunned, then said with laughter:

"You really are... I'll count you as awesome!"

"I'm not awesome, Senior, you are the truly awesome one."

After thinking about Auntie Auntie Ai Ma's surprisingly stable emotions and her calm and rational way of handling things when facing emergencies, Leon praised sincerely:

"I'm just a bit flexible in thinking, but in terms of the ability to handle things, there are still many things I need to learn from you... By the way, Senior, your soul once jumped violently before, did you find anything?"

"Stop calling me Senior, it sounds old. I'm actually not much older than you, you should just call me Auntie Auntie Ai Ma directly in the future."

After correcting Leon's address, Auntie Auntie Ai Ma, who was in a quite good mood, said with a smile:

"As for the discovery, there are indeed some... Have you heard the name King of Nightmares?"

"King of Nightmares?"

"The King of Nightmares is also known as the Lord of Nightmares, controlling the nightmare power in the dream power. He is one of the true gods believed in by the Baiyan Black Sect.

Because his true body only exists in the dreams of intelligent creatures and never involves reality, even the General Bureau has no way to deal with him. He is a quite troublesome guy."

After briefly explaining the situation of the King of Nightmares, Auntie Auntie Ai Ma explained while pondering:

"The ancestors of our kingdom's royal family once fought with the King of Nightmares and forcibly drove him away several times, thus suffering some curses from the King of Nightmares.

As they grow older, every direct bloodline of the royal family will start to frequently fall into nightmares, constantly experiencing the most regretful past in their lives in their dreams. And the older they are, the more regrets they have, the more real and painful this dream will be. The current old King was tortured by this kind of nightmare until he fell ill.

So if I'm not mistaken, Prince Watching Watching Qiaoshuya last night most likely experienced an incomparably painful nightmare, which is why he suddenly lost his mind just now and performed so crazily, wanting to know what that dream was about no matter what."

This is also why I didn't prepare to argue with him at the beginning. He experienced such a terrifying dream last night, it's very normal for his emotions to be unstable. Watching Watching Qiaoshuya also has his own difficulties."
