I dreamed I was holding a little girl

　　Double exhaustion from adventures and supernatural occurrences makes Ryota almost fall asleep while taking a bath.

　　Fortunately, he reacted in time and supported his gradually relaxing body from sliding down in the tub.

　　Otherwise, he would have to drink a few mouthfuls of someone else's bathwater.

　　According to Miyuki, apart from him, the last one to leave tonight was Kei.

　　And the shower water just happened to be replaced. After Kei took a bath, considering the problem of saving money, she didn't waste water, and kept the water until Ryota came back...

　　"Uh… why would I want to do this kind of thing? Was it affected by the Ming Hong Sword? Colorful weapons!"

　　Ryota quickly slapped his cheeks hard and started to dry himself.

　　After she had to change into his pajamas and came to the bedroom, as soon as he hit the bed, his fatigue was completely dissipated, and he didn't want to move at all.

　　He was lying on the bed in a huge form, and his consciousness gradually sank.

　　In less than a minute, he fell into a deep sleep.

　　In order to enjoy a good night's sleep, Ryota turns off all alarm clocks beforehand.

　　But sleeping tonight, an unprecedented situation has occurred. Ryota had a dream where his consciousness wasn't muddled, but clear.

　　He could feel that he was himself.

　　This doesn't happen so often with dreams.

　　Ryota started walking consciously in the dream.

　　Surrounded by a golden halo, the entire room was golden, and he couldn't see the ground clearly.

　　Just the real feeling of stepping on it, and soft.

　　He just walked forward aimlessly, and kept on walking… until at a certain moment, the sound of the tide reached his ears.

　　Ryota looked up, he wanted to find the source of the sound, but what he saw was a little girl standing not far in front of him.

　　She looked to be about six years old, with long black hair that was as smooth as silk, and the hair on the top of her head was slightly coiled, with a beautiful bobby pin.

　　The little girl was wearing a beautiful long dress with an ancient style, her face was gentle as if sculpted, and her eyes were shining.

　　That delicate face was like fragile porcelain, which made people want to hold it with both hands and care for it carefully.

　　The little girl just stood there, watching Ryota quietly.

　　The two pairs of eyes met.

　　At that moment, for some reason, Ryota felt his heart beat uncontrollably.

　　The blood also seemed to speed up its flow, excitement made him breathless, as if he had met his fated person.

　　To be specific... it was like love at first sight!

　　Uh... what's going on here?

　　Ryota was stunned at the same time... Is he a pervert!

　　Love at first sight for this little girl!?

　　Just when Ryota was in a daze, a little girl stirred. He opened his arms, revealing his hands under the cuffs, arms slightly raised.

　　As if asking Ryota to hug her quickly.

　　At that moment, all the wild thoughts in Ryota's mind disappeared, all that was left was instinct, prompting him to walk slowly towards the little girl.

　　Then squatted down, stretched out his arms, and responded to the hug.

　　But just as he was about to hug...

"Let me go! You pervert!"

　　A scolding roar made Ryota suddenly open his eyes.

　　Kei's blushing cheeks, who were nearby, suddenly came into his sight.

　　Ryota was stunned for a moment, and there was a soft and beautiful feeling.

　　It took him three seconds to grasp the situation—his arms wrapped around Kei's back and slender waist, and he forcibly pressed the girl's body into his embrace, and hugged really hard.

　　As a result, the bodies of the two of them were tightly pressed against each other, as if they were indistinguishable from one another.

　　The breaths of both parties intertwined.

　　Each can sense the other's body temperature.

　　Even his mouth accidentally caught a few strands of Kei's hair.

　　Ryouta: "..."

　　Ryota silently let go of his adoptive sister.

　　The girl's petite and soft body gave him a tingling feeling in his heart.

　　After he suddenly released it and couldn't feel it anymore, he seemed a little reluctant instinctively… Bah! What a bastard!

　　"Kei, why are you in my bed?" To avoid embarrassment, Ryota immediately asked.

　　Seeing Kei awake, Ryota asked: "Could it be...you want to attack me while I'm sleeping?"

　　"..." Kei's eyes widened.

　　A girl with a pure heart, she never expected Ryota to say that.

　　She immediately blushed and argued loudly: "What nonsense are you talking about! I just told you to get up and eat. You didn't wake up, so I pushed you closer. Who knew you suddenly hugged ... ..."

　　"Eh... I took the initiative?"

　　Ryota feigned surprise and pointed at himself.

　　"Of course it's you!"

　　"I slept so badly, I don't remember anything, isn't that sleepwalking behavior? Can you tell me what happened?"

　　"Just a hug..."

　　"What? I hug you and kiss you!?"

　　"...No! Don't talk nonsense!"

　　Kei turned Ryota on the bed, then turned around, patted her red and hot cheeks, and ran towards the door.

　　Only the voice came back: "It's already 11:30 p.m., you really can sleep! Get up and eat, I will wait for you."

　　"I know."

　　Seeing Kei leave the room quickly, Ryota felt relieved.

　　Sure enough, anyone with thin skin was an embarrassed person.

　　This little girl, Kei, was naturally no match for the courage of his city walls.

　　The result is that the person taking advantage of them doesn't feel much, and the person taking advantage of them is red-faced.

　　Ryota worries that in the future, this adopted sister will always be under his pressure.

　　After all, it was too easy to deal with.

　　...

　　After Kei ran out of the room.

　　While getting dressed, Ryota recalls his previous dream.

　　It was his first lucid dream.

　　Consciousness can control its own actions just like in reality, but actually in a dream, feeling is overwhelming.

　　Ryota thought that he shouldn't be like this for no reason.

　　There must be a reason for this.

　　(Could it be… is it the Ming Hong Sword?)

　　Ryota thought of a possibility.

　　Ming Hong's sword is hidden in his emotions, and the magic sword itself has consciousness.

　　It's not impossible to disturb his dream.

　　It's just... what's the point of doing this?

　　Is it just asking for a hug?

　　"Ming Hong's sword... Huh? Is this a way to activate the Soldier Commander system?"

　　At this time!

　　As soon as Ryota thought of the Ming Hong Sword in his mind, relevant profound information spontaneously appeared.

　　It was about the unlocking method of the "System Magic · Soldier Commander system and the foundation of the system.

　　That great knowledge immediately caught Ryota's attention and let him immerse himself in it.
