Elysia looked at Robin.
"Miss Robin really cares about her brother~ That kind of concern can't be hidden~"
Robin smiled gently, her tone sincere: "Because no matter what, from the past to now, my brother has always been the most important person to me."
"Even though the time we spent apart grew longer and longer, this familial bond never changed."
She paused, then sighed softly: "To be honest, I don't really want to judge what he did before. Perhaps others think he was wrong, but this is my own personal bias—in my heart, he has always been the best to me."
"No matter what, he is my brother."
Robin's gaze drifted into the distance, as if she could pierce through obstacles to see Sunday's figure.
"He has undergone a change now, no longer as persistent as before..."
"So, before our truly long-term separation, I also want to offer him some encouragement."
Elysia's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she clapped her hands: "Hmm... in that case, I have an idea! It'll let you two have a good talk~ I guarantee no one will disturb you, just you two siblings."
Robin was a little surprised and couldn't help but lean forward: "Eh? Really?"
She really wanted to have a good conversation with her brother, but she didn't know how to start. After all, Sunday's current identity was sensitive, and a rash meeting would inevitably lead to trouble.
Then, Elysia turned to Ai in the terminal and instructed: "Ai chan, turn off the live stream for now."
After all, what was coming next involved a private conversation between Robin and Sunday, which was personal privacy and not suitable for public live streaming.
Although turning off the live stream might affect the viewers who supported her, and would reduce the income of Wonderful Heart Points, in Elysia's opinion, these were nothing compared to other people's feelings.
As soon as the live stream went black, the comment section immediately became lively:
[Sparkle: Eh eh, what's going on? Why is there no picture in the live stream! I was waiting to see the touching scene of siblings meeting, hurry up and open it! Don't keep us in suspense!]
[Elysia: Don't worry, viewers~]
[Elysia: After we're done with this, we'll reopen the live stream~ Then we'll share happy things with everyone~]
[Jing Yuan: Such an action is quite thorough]
[Qingque: Hehe, speaking of which, I suddenly remembered that I'm about to go on a business trip to Penacony... Maybe I can catch the subsequent excitement?]
[Fu Xuan: Saying it so brazenly, are you trying to use the business trip as an excuse to play and not work properly?]
[Qingque: No no no, I just said it casually! I'll definitely work hard, no public funds for tourism! You can rest assured, I guarantee to complete the task!]
[Fu Xuan: ...I hope you keep your word]
...
The liveliness of the comment section did not affect the few people on the s.s. reverie.
Elysia looked at Robin and stated her idea: "I suddenly have an idea, how about you two enter a connected dream? There, you can talk quietly without worrying about anyone disturbing you."
Robin was stunned for a moment, a little hesitant: "Dreaming within a dream? Such a thing..."
Elysia shook the dream's butterfly dream in her hand, its wings glowing with a soft light:
"Trust the power of the Dream Butterfly~ It's very powerful, you know~ How about it? Want to try?"
Robin was expectant but also a little hesitant:
"I naturally have no problem with it, as long as I can have a good talk with my brother, anything is fine. It's just... I don't know if my brother would be willing..."
"He will definitely agree, trust me~"
Elysia said confidently, her tone assured.
"Your importance to each other is self-evident. Give him a chance, and he will definitely cherish it."
Robin looked at Elysia's sincere eyes, then thought of her brother's previous appearance, and finally made up her mind, nodding vigorously: "Mm, I believe you, Miss Elysia."
...
Looking at the closed live stream interface and the constantly scrolling bullet comments in the comment section, Sunday vaguely felt that something was about to happen.
But he was very much looking forward to it.
Robin was right; from the past to the present, they, as siblings, were the most important people to each other.
Those deep-seated concerns in their hearts had never diminished by a single iota due to time or distance.
So, after resolving some of the lingering issues of the "Order" power, Sunday found a quiet corner and waited silently.
He was never a person who lacked patience, especially when it came to matters that might concern his sister; waiting a little longer was no big deal.
Not long after, Elysia's figure appeared before him.
"In that case, my disguise seems like a joke..."
Sunday chuckled, making a self-deprecating remark.
"Don't underestimate my intuition~"
Elysia said with a smile.
Sunday bowed slightly, responding politely: "Miss Elysia personally coming to find me naturally makes me feel honored."
Elysia came here alone; the others were still on the s.s. reverie.
"Hmm, very eloquent indeed~"
Elysia blinked, with a hint of teasing.
"No wonder you used to be the family's spokesperson and was even praised as 'Penacony's most handsome man'!"
These interesting tidbits were naturally mentioned by Robin earlier when she was talking about Sunday.
It's quite normal for a sister to occasionally tease her brother a bit; if Sunday heard it, he might even secretly be happy.
Sunday showed a helpless smile: "If Miss Elysia only wishes to tease me a little, then I can certainly accompany her for a while."
"Oh, alright, alright, I didn't realize you were so impatient."
Elysia waved her hand, no longer playing coy, and directly explained the matter of the dream within a dream.
"So, that's it. I want you and Robin to enter a 'dream within a dream,' how about it?"
She paused, then added: "Want to try it? Your sister has already agreed, she's just waiting for your nod."
"Yes, I'd be delighted."
Sunday agreed almost without a moment's hesitation.
He had no reason to refuse such an opportunity to have a good talk with his sister.
"Alright, then get ready to 'sleep'~"
Elysia said, directly taking out the zhuangzi's butterfly dream. The Dream Butterfly gently flapped its wings in her palm, gathering a faint halo of light.
With a sudden flick of her wrist, the Dream Butterfly transformed into a stream of light, instantly merging into Sunday's body.
The next second, Sunday's figure, just like Robin's earlier, disappeared from where he stood... into the dream within a dream.
Sunday looked around and found that the dream here was exceptionally real, yet it carried an indescribable sense of haziness.
He sighed softly: "Is this a dream within a dream? Even I can't see through it."
He walked slowly forward, thinking to himself: "It's not bad to let people dream what they want to dream..."
As he walked, the scene before him suddenly opened up, like a long-sealed play whose curtain had abruptly risen.
In the image, there was a simple small stage, seemingly put together casually with wooden boards and drapes.
A small girl stood on it, singing earnestly.
Her voice still carried the innocence of a child, yet it was as clear as a mountain spring, quite beautiful.
Below the stage, a small boy looked up, watching the girl on stage intently, his eyes full of focus and pride.
"Brother, this is..."
A familiar voice sounded behind him.
Sunday turned around and saw Robin standing there, her lake-green eyes shining as she looked at the scene before them.
The little boy: "It's been so long since I've sung happily like this..."
"I built a stage for you, it's just... a bit crude."
The little girl finished a section, then lowered her head a little shyly: "But the teacher thinks I'm not suitable for singing..."
The little boy below the stage immediately said loudly: "No, I think it sounds great! You will definitely achieve your dream in the future and sing on an even bigger stage!"
Sunday quietly watched this scene, looking at the two small figures.
These were his deepest memories, now presented so clearly.
At this moment, he could truly open his heart... He smiled from the bottom of his heart and turned to look at Robin beside him:
"Who would have thought that the big star now renowned throughout the galaxy used to be like this?"
"Brother always knew~"
Robin put her hands behind her back, just like when she was little, and skipped out from behind Sunday, a mischievous smile on her face.
Sunday was not at all surprised by this; what surged in his heart was more of a long-lost joy.
Here, there were no past entanglements; he was just an ordinary brother, nothing more.
Robin clearly felt the same way.
Sunday looked at her and nodded solemnly: "Mm, I won't forget, I never have forgotten."
Robin sighed emotionally: "Oh, it really was so long ago, it feels like yesterday, and yet like a very, very long time has passed."
Sunday remembered something and asked with a smile: "Do you remember, back then, you almost wanted to give up?"
"Yes..."
Robin nodded frankly.
"At that time, I felt that when a hobby becomes a career that requires effort, it will always bring all sorts of troubles. However, thanks to the encouragement from my brother and everyone else, I persevered."
Sunday looked at another scene gradually becoming clear before his eyes and said softly: "Then... let's look further ahead. The events after that had the greatest impact on us, didn't they?"
Robin followed his gaze, softly hummed, and a complex emotion appeared in her eyes...
