"In two more days, everything will begin."
Prescribed Dream stops and turns her attention to the owner of those words, Lawrence.
He then explains the entire plan, everything that will happen and what might happen. He particularly emphasizes the point where the stationary door will be located, which has only two restrictions, being a woman and a time limit before it disappears. He does not explain the origin of this door, such explanations will come after the plan succeeds.
"Until that day, we will not see each other again. You will have to do it alone."
After his words, Lawrence waits for Prescribed Dream's response.
A response that once again leaves him perplexed.
"It won't be easy, Lawrence. The guards know how to proceed, they've been training after the repeated disappearances of your wives."
"You knew?!"
"Always." She smiles fearlessly. "I was just waiting for you to mention it, but you never did."
This woman must be crazy to suggest mistrust between them just two days before the plan is executed. If it were another woman, if it were another situation, Lawrence would not hesitate to use the Memory and Emotion Rewriting magic on Prescribed Dream to learn the truth and decide her life or death, but it is not the case, not with her.
He approaches her and reaches out his hand towards her neck, but instead of squeezing it between his fingers, he caresses it gently.
"You're testing me, but even so, I won't back down. I know you feel something for me."
She smiles in response, and he simply brings his face closer to hers and kisses her. As soon as their lips part, Lawrence walks towards the entrance and pauses for a moment. He can feel the engagement ring inside his storage ring, but after pondering the idea, he snorts and leaves the house.
When Prescribed Dream sees him leave, she sighs with a smile on her face.
"It will be a long time before you have the chance to do that again... Lawrence."
+++
The day arrives.
Far from the construction project, there are Lawrence and his women. In front of them, a huge magic formation that restricts hunters below level 400.
Thanks to their connections and modest heritage, this magic formation is much more beautiful and complex than any they have used before. They may not be experts in magic formations, but there is no need to be when one has money.
In the center of this formation exists a stationary door, from which Prescribed Dream will emerge. This stationary door is so restrictive that even Lawrence cannot pass through it. Once it is used, it will immediately disappear. It only has one use.
"This magic formation is enough to hold her while I probe her mind. As long as it's not someone like Sky Petal, Prescribed Dream will not be able to hide a single word from me. You can be sure of that."
Lawrence nods, knowing what Serene Will is capable of. He silently looks at the others and then says: "If I create a Dimensional Rift and don't appear after a few seconds, prepare for the worst. You more than anyone, Coldness Divine."
When mentioned, she snorts understanding what this implies.
Before returning, Lawrence approaches Coldness Divine and caresses her cheek, then turns around and creates a Dimensional Rift. With the good luck wishes of his wives, Lawrence returns to the Unquenchable Fire Brothel.
From this moment, he will be alone.
He walks away from the hidden stationary door, whose location is only known by him and that woman, and returns to the main path, continuing his day as usual.
Lawrence's job consists of ensuring the mental state of the prostitutes by giving them some love, someone to talk to, or just a bit of friendship. He chose to give them love, although a very particular kind. Women in this state are so easy to tame, he never tires of seeing talented women performing all kinds of acts just to please him.
Lawrence eases his anxiety with a beautiful woman with long golden hair and green eyes. He does not remember how long he has been the dao protector of this woman, he is not interested in women who do not possess an extraordinary innate ability. Since he tamed her, he forgot many things about her.
Currently, there are eight women under Lawrence's charge, one of them is Prescribed Dream. If it were any other day, he would head towards the next woman, but this is no ordinary day.
"By now, the guards must have noticed the sudden disappearance of Prescribed Dream. It won't take long for them to come after me."
This is the scenario they prepared for the third escape. She will disappear while he continues working, in a significant and visible place for everyone.
As he opens the doors of the administration building, chaos unfolds at the other end of the Unquenchable Fire Brothel.
No one knows who alerted about Prescribed Dream's disappearance, but as soon as the news broke, different guards began searching for her. At first, it was just a search with the perimeter centered around Prescribed Dream's residence, but after not finding her, a large-scale search was initiated. Everyone wanted to find her, everyone feared being implicated in the failure.
After all, all the prostitutes in this brothel know too much. Once they quit this job, they are monitored for life with the condition of never leaving the Heavenly Path Kingdom.
The disappearance of one of them poses serious risks.
While this happens, no one would think that the cause of all this would be walking calmly, with no concern on her face. Her foot technique is mysterious, one step equals tens of meters of distance, yet not a strand of her hair moves with the wind. As if there were no effort, as if this were not even a foot technique.
Just her usual walk.
She admires the surroundings, but her gaze does not fall on the landscape, but on something deeper. To admire the day, to admire this moment, only she would know the implication of this.
A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
Some time later, she arrives at the agreed place, but does not immediately enter through the stationary door, but waits. She waits long enough for no one to discover the irregularity, to pretend to be someone else.
Before entering through the stationary door, she looks back.
"Today everything will conclude, no one can change it."
Prescribed Dream takes a step towards the stationary door and her surroundings change, from a forested landscape to a beautiful pristine meadow. In just a blink, a change occurs, a magic formation subtly shines under her feet and behind her, the stationary door disappears. Any escape route has disappeared.
"Are you Prescribed Dream?"
When her name is mentioned, she turns her gaze towards the owner of the voice, Serene Will. Alongside her are Coldness Divine and Sky Petal.
"Yes, I am."
As soon as they hear her voice and feel her eyes rest on them, their hearts race. Unconsciously they swallow and feel their cheeks blush, for some reason, they are drawn to her.
They all lose the initiative, and when they try to regain it, they hear the voice of that woman again. "Don't waste time with me, this magic formation is enough to hold me."
The implication of her words allows them to think rationally again.
"What do you mean?"
"Lawrence is in danger. If you don't find a magic artifact to hide his innate ability, the whole truth will be revealed."
With just those words, the priority of Prescribed Dream has moved to second place. They completely forget to continue with the interrogation, reading from her mind only what she wants.
"Lawrence will be under the scrutiny of a war artifact. Not only will the worst case scenario happen, but everyone will know about the existence of a child from the doors of change who survived the barrier of 20 years of age."
"Why didn't you tell him before?!"
At Coldness Divine's fury, regret shows on her face. “I had no way to communicate it to him.”
This is the scenario they had planned, a scenario that did not account for something. The predictions of Prescribed Dream. One day is more than enough for the future to change.
Coldness Divine is the one who laments this the most, because at this rate, she will have to...
"I know the approximate location of one of them."
But those same predictions hold the answer to this dilemma.
"If you leave now, you might be able to find its whereabouts."
On their own, without any kind of consensus, all of them assess the magic formation and realize it is taking effect. There's no way this woman can escape, even with outside help, she can't do anything when they themselves are the key to her release.
Sky Petal sees the concern on the faces of Serene Will and Coldness Divine, and decides to be the one to say those words that they dare not utter.
"Tell us where it is."
Prescribed Dream cooperates without any delay. As soon as they obtain its possible location, Serene Will and Coldness Divine head at great speed to a stationary door close to the location of the magic artifact.
Sky Petal watches Prescribed Dream for a few seconds before following them.
Today there are no construction jobs, they were given the day off, so after their departure, the personal dimension remains silent. A gentle breeze hits Prescribed Dream and her long sky blue hair sways with the wind, when it stops, she looks forward.
The next second the glow of the magic formation dims and, as if what it held back no longer existed, seconds later it deactivates.
For the first time in the creation of the personal dimension, storm clouds fill the sky. As soon as a strong lightning strikes the ground, rain begins to fall.
Prescribed Dream takes a step and walks away from the magic formation, without anyone able to stop her.
"This will be our farewell."
She walks until she disappears in the distance. Life inside the personal dimension may be sparse compared to the outside world, but the arrival of the Green Wolves has facilitated the development of a small forest, perhaps the best place to hide from the rain.
Different types of flowers, bushes, insects, fish, and animals face the first test of wind and rain. Only the strongest will survive and those who do, will gain some degree of resistance to the upcoming rains.
What seems invulnerable to this storm is none other than the construction. Whether it be the wind or rain, even if lightning should strike them, nothing is capable of damaging the surface of its materials.
While the storm shows no signs of stopping, in one of the few built rooms, there is a strange sealed space. This was not there before, it is not part of the plans. This strange space in the room has been created recently.
Inside, a person extends their hand towards the window, but their fingers are unable to surpass the barrier of this sealed space.
"This is the origin of everything, but... I can't do anything to stop it."
Their voice sounds distressed, as if they had made a great sacrifice to reach this place, but even so, it is not enough.
This strange sealed space does not last long, cracks appear in the room, the barrier will soon disappear, but their eyes do not move from a spot in the distance.
It is then that an extraordinary phenomenon occurs in the sky. It is so majestic that all the clouds split just to reveal it to the world.
It lasts for long minutes and as soon as it disappears, the storm increases in intensity. A storm that should never strike a newly created world. If nothing is done about it, life inside will perish.
Just before the sealed space in the room is destroyed, the person inside manages to catch a glimpse of Prescribed Dream's silhouette. Prescribed Dream's face reflects a smile she had never given to her husband.
But contrary to the smile of Prescribed Dream, this person looks depressed.
"Lawrence…"
