Lord of Dreams – A Multiverse Fanfiction

In the foggy weather, the crisp sound of sword clashes cloud be heard frequently as two figures clashed at incredible speeds

Those two are Lorien and Urokodaki, it's been 4 days since Lorien started learning the water breathing technique and he somehow managed to completely learn it in that brief amount of time

The reason they are currently battling right now is just a test to see if he had truly learned all of it or if he needs more training

So with that in mind, Lorien tried his best to suppress his physical strength to the same level as Urokodaki and only used the water breathing technique he had just learned

*Clash*

*Clash*

*Clash*

This lasted for a while until the two finally stopped, both stood again face to face, and neither of them looked tired as it wasnt truly a battle

Pausing for a moment Urokodaki spoke, the surprise in his voice couldn't be hidden

"You have completely mastered it! It Seems That I have nothing left to teach you, I already explained how Total concentration works, so it's all on you now"

Hearing this, Lorien nodded and bowed down lightly as a show of gratitude to the old man

"Thank you!"

Lorien was really grateful for his help as he really instructed him to the best of his ability

The experience in the past 4 days of training was really pleasant

Urokodaki was truly the best teacher he had until this moment, be it in terms of strength or in how he manages to get the information through to Lorien in the simplest and clearest way possible

Being strong doesn't automatically makes one a good teacher and in this, the experience Urokodaki had in training generations of Demon Slayers came into play

After talking a bit more to the old man Lorien decided to go back to the house and relax a bit

Walking slowly towards the small wooden house Lorien's eyes wandered towards Saigai who was training not far away

He truthfully didn't expect her to be this hard-working, usually, people won't have this sort of resolve to train none stop

Whenever people pick up something new they would be enthusiastic about it, but after a while, this enthusiasm disappears as they start to burnout, become lazy and finally give up this new thing they picked up

But only a few are able to break through this phase and ignore it, turning the 'work' into a 'habit'

'This may be because of her past experience...'

Shaking his head Lorien put all those thoughts aside as they weren't important, moreover, such a thing is actually good for her

Without such hard work and resolve it is nearly impossible to improve and grow stronger

Look at Lorien for example, since he traveled to this world all of his actions were calculated and planned, he had truly worked hard non-stop from the beginning

That is of course without the sudden attack from Akaza and all of the other uncontrollable variables

'But everything went well in the end...'

Thinking of this he smiled happily, but he then remembered something else which caused him to sigh

'I Should also find some time to relax... life isn't all about getting stronger'

Even though he took a 'pause' for a couple of days it doesn't really count as relaxation as he was busy doing other things on the side

'Maybe I could go to one of those slice of life 'anime' worlds when I have the time, but getting their coordinates will depend on luck I guess'

Pausing for a moment his chain of thoughts then continued

'Let's leave it for later, I should focus on getting the seeds of 'immortality' and 'ability' now, as for the sun breathing technique I should be able to get it today or tomorrow..'

While he was thinking Lorien's steps didn't stop as he had already entered the small house

After entering it he then looked towards the room where Nezuko was sleeping with a small frown on his face

'She should have already woken up, did an issue occur?'

Thinking of this he walked toward it and quickly entered the room through the sliding door

The scene inside didn't change, everything inside looked the same as it was 4 days ago

But Lorien wasnt interested in this at the moment as he closed the door behind him and then lit up the lantern that was next to the bed to light the room up

Following that, he sat next to her and held her wrist to observe her current state

'Her energy already recovered and she should be able to wake up'

'Oh! So that's how it is...'

Indeed as Lorien predicted those 4 days were enough for her energy to recover, it was just that her conscience has been suppressed for too long and it will take some time for it to wake up on its own

And even if it woke up on its own it'll be in the same state she appeared in the original, entirely like a child

Thinking of this he decided to use his ability to help her

[Dreams and Reality]

As soon as his ability was used the "Dark" energy that suppressed her consciousness was instantly beaten back

And it didn't stop there as her dormant consciousness started becoming more active

This should have been enough for her to wake up, but Lorien didn't stop there as he decided to strengthen her consciousness

And that's because without his help the "dark energy" would suppress it again, even though it won't cause her to fall into a com again it'll affect her thoughts, so it's better to just strengthen it so that it could ignore its influence

With this in mind, he also started strengthening it, and it didn't take long for the result to become apparent as the weak consciousness started 'solidifying'

After doing this for a while Lorien quickly stopped when get judged that the level of strength should be enough to restore her sanity and keep it

After doing all of this Lorien breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the energy inside of his body his mouth couldn't help but twitch

'Strengthening people really takes a lot of energy...well she should wake up any moment now'

Closing his eyes Lorien decided to rest for a while as he waited

And she didnt make him wait for long as 10 minutes later Lorien heard a soft grown coming from the bedding which caused him to instantly become alert

"Uhh"
