Capítulo 107: Ch 107. Inhuman Hoshimi
After temporarily soothing Yukino, Hoshimi turned to the other side, looking at the dazed Kotoko Iwanaga, "Kotoko, can you tell me the information you know now?"
"Hmm…" Kotoko, slumped on the bench, gathered her strength, sat up straight, and said seriously, "Hoshimi, who enters your dream depends entirely on your own will."
"My own will?" Hoshimi muttered, glancing at Kotoko, signaling her to continue.
"Hoo~~" Kotoko took a deep breath, rubbed her flushed cheeks, and regained her usual clarity.
Then, she turned to Hoshimi and continued, "Hoshimi, at first, Siesta and I thought your dream wasn't controlled by your conscious mind but by your subconscious."
"However, after witnessing your control over the dream, we concluded that you should be able to consciously decide who enters your dream."
"And it turned out to be true."
"Siesta…" Hoshimi glanced at Yukino from the corner of his eye, murmuring guiltily.
Siesta was the second girl to enter his dream, with Kotoko being the third. The two coexisted in his dream for a while.
But Siesta and Kotoko, being smart, often clashed, which exhausted him...
Finally, after multiple confrontations, they suggested spending time alone with him each day, ignoring the other, a plan they called "one person a day."
He thought about it and agreed. It was better than having them together, causing trouble and ruining his fun.
"Hoshimi."
Kotoko's gentle call brought Hoshimi back to his thoughts. He raised his hand, signaling Kotoko to continue.
"Hoshimi, your dream is powerful, and your control over it is perfect, but haven't you noticed a problem?"
"?" Hoshimi tilted his head slightly, looking at Kotoko.
Kotoko leaned forward, staring into Hoshimi's red eyes, and said slowly, "Hoshimi, don't you find it unreasonable? You control your dream so perfectly, yet you can't grasp some basic things?"
Hoshimi tilted his head further, his red pupils reflecting Kotoko's face.
Kotoko leaned in, pressing her forehead against his, staring into his eyes, "Hoshimi, have you ignored the 'settings' of the dream? Do you see the dream merely as a playground?"
"..." Hoshimi didn't respond.
He squinted, pondering. As Kotoko said, he hadn't paid attention to the 'settings' of the dream, which was unlike him.
In general, when faced with unknown situations, he would likely investigate.
But dreams were different. He seemed to accept them easily and treat them as a 'playground' for enjoyment.
This was unusual.
Hoshimi leaned back, poking Kotoko's forehead with his index finger, pushing her back to her original position.
He then crossed his legs, one arm across his chest, the other supporting his face as he pondered.
"Ha~~~"
After a while, Hoshimi sighed weakly.
He leaned back against the bench, looking at the clear sky, giving up on thinking.
"So it's true…"
Seeing Hoshimi's sudden change to a listless state, Kotoko muttered softly.
She sat up straight, patting Hoshimi's shoulder, "Hoshimi, make it rain."
"Hmm?" Hoshimi blinked at Kotoko.
"Listen to me first, I'll explain later."
"Alright…" Hoshimi waved his hand, and the clear sky instantly darkened, layers of dark clouds gathering overhead.
Simultaneously, the oppressive atmosphere of impending rain and the howling wind followed.
"Hoo~~hoo~~~"
After a few beast-like howls from the wind, rain began to fall gently.
The rain wasn't heavy, just a light drizzle, refreshing on the skin.
At this moment, Hoshimi's expression changed.
The faint smile faded from his face, replaced by a calm, deadpan look.
He stared expressionlessly at the gloomy sky, "I see, someone intentionally suppressed my thoughts, making me avoid the 'settings' of the dream?"
"?!" Yukino, noticing Hoshimi's sudden change, frowned deeply.
"Don't worry, I'm still the Hoshimi you know, it's just…" Hoshimi turned to Yukino, forcing a smile, "I'm in a bit of a bad mood now."
Unable to keep up with the changes, Yukino frowned and asked, "Why are you in a bad mood? And what's going on now? I don't quite understand what you're talking about."
"Let me explain." Kotoko took off her white beret, holding it in her hand, patting off the raindrops as she explained,
"Previously, Siesta and I discussed that the weather in the dream should be linked to Hoshimi's mood."
"A clear sky means you're in a good mood, wanting to relax and have fun."
"And when it's rainy, it means you're in a bad mood."
"Additionally, Siesta told you that when you're in a good mood, you don't think much. During this time, you're likely only thinking about how to have fun, without considering too many other issues."
Hoshimi's expression remained unchanged.
Kotoko's words were correct. When he was in a good mood, he only thought about how to have fun, not other issues.
He knew why.
Revenge play. His past life was too oppressive, with no relaxation from school to work.
Now, given the chance, he naturally wanted to relax and enjoy to the fullest.
"When it's rainy, Hoshimi, your mood worsens, so you think more."
"In Siesta's words, when you're in a bad mood, your intelligence returns."
Hoshimi glanced coldly at Kotoko, "Kotoko, it seems your rivalry with Siesta was an act in front of me? The 'one person a day' rule was actually to explore my dream, right?"
Kotoko put her beret back on, "Hoshimi, Siesta and I do have our differences, but the 'one person a day' rule was also to explore the dream."
"So, Kotoko, what did you and Siesta discover?"
Kotoko turned to Hoshimi, holding his expressionless face, sincerely saying, "Hoshimi, I apologize. Make it sunny quickly; you're inhumane like this. When it's sunny, we can continue talking. I'll tell you everything you want to know."
