Chapter 276 Reality Wrap
"I was so scared…" she muttered.
"I should have realized everything."
"Hmm?"
"This place, or rather this dimension, is an illusion. It's not like the labyrinth we went to. Everything here is fake."
"So, how did we get here? How was the illusion triggered if this is not a real place?" Jane asked with a curious and confused look on her face.
"No. This place itself is real, but it's created by a strong illusion. There is a thin line separating reality and illusion, and this place is that thin line," he explained calmly.
"How do you… know that…?"
"Well… to be honest, I am not sure. But I feel like that."
"Can I ask why?"
"First of all, my powers were weakened, which won't happen in normal circumstances. Even with a magic spell cast upon this place, it was highly unbelievable.
Second, you were acting strange or somewhat scared. You said you could see a figure and also gave hints as though someone had been watching us. But I couldn't see or feel any of that, which would never happen.
My powers allow me to overwhelm any and every sort of power. I even had my supersense on, so I should have been able to sense even the minutest change in my surroundings, but I never sensed any shift.
This and a few other things led me to believe that whatever was happening was not because of magic but an illusion. An illusion is not a reality, and it has no cognition of logic. The illusion caster is a god in the illusion created by them. No one can do anything. No one can interfere.
But I did. My powers were already interfering with it from the moment we landed here. They were weakened, but they were overwhelmed by the illusion. So I just had to break the illusion and find the caster."
He asserted in a solemn voice.
"So that figure was the illusion caster?" Jane was kissing Rudy once in a while whenever he stopped speaking.
"I don't think so. That figure was just a pawn."
Jane glanced around the desert and asked, "Are we still in the illusion?"
"I have no idea how to distinguish that. And my powers are out of control right now, so I am not sure."
"Let's get out of here."
"Yeah."
Rudy hugged Jane tightly and teleported back to Jane's room.
The blue moon in the desert changed to white, and a small bud emerged from the spot where the blue moon tree was standing.
The bud sprouted and became a five clover leaf.
Meanwhile, in Jane's room.
Jane had started kissing Rudy more aggressively. She even bit his lips by mistake and drank the blood while kissing.
Rudy, on the other hand, was enjoying everything. He walked to the bed and sat atop it as Jane continued kissing him.
Jane still had her arms and legs wrapped around Rudy, and she had no intention of telling him to go.
A few minutes later, Jane finally stopped and squeezed Rudy's body tightly.
She played with his long white hair and asked, "Are you not going to explain what happened to your hair?"
"This happens when my powers exceed my body limit. They should change back to black as my body heals itself. But I am not sure why it increased in length. It could just be my body's healing mechanism that boosted their growth exponentially."
"Are you in pain?" she asked with an anxious and concerned look on her face.
"Very," he replied. "That's why keep kissing me to subdue the pain."
Jane grabbed a few of her hair and mixed it with Rudy's hair.
"We match," she said with a grin on her face.
"Indeed."
After mixing a few strands of their hair together, Jane made a pointy tail and tickled Rudy with it.
"You know, I always hated my hair color. They were white, unlike any royal vampires. Not only that, no vampire ever had white hair. I wanted to be just like the others." She smiled wryly and continued, "There were times when I thought about shaving my head. But Rias always stopped me."
"Don't say that. White is a beautiful color, and it suits you. You look perfect with white hair, and I don't think you would look as beautiful if you had any other hair color."
Jane squinted her eyes in suspicion and asked, "Okay, so, whose hair do you like the most? White or Red?"
"You have to fill the context first. By red hair color, are you referring to Rias? Well, you obviously are, but I want to make sure."
"Yes…"
"Then Rias' red hair."
"I knew it. I would never win against Rias."
"If Rias had white hair or you had red hair, I would be conflicted. Red suits Rias and white suits you. Even though you are identical twins, you…" He paused and sighed, "I don't know how to put it in words. But I hope you understand what I am trying to say."
Jane grinned and said, "Relex. I am just teasing you."
"What about my hair? Do you like the white or my normal black?" he asked curiously.
"Ummm…" Jane pondered for a few seconds before replying, "White. Because we match."
"What about you?" she asked him.
"I don't have any taste, to be honest. But I guess I like the black ones better as they are more natural and I was born with them. They are a part of me."
Rudy lay down on the bed with Jane still on top of him.
"Hmm? Are you going to sleep?" she asked.
"Yeah. My head is going crazy, and my body feels like it's going to explode. " He closed his eyes and uttered in a fading voice, "Let me rest for a few hours."
"I, for some reason, don't feel tired at all. Instead, I feel energetic, and I was looking forward to having some 'fun' with you…" Jane said with a gloomy face.
"……"
"And you should know how hard it is to sleep or focus on anything when you are horny," she added with a knowing look on her face.
