/POP Sana/
Sana was in a deep slumber. But suddenly, his thoughts were controlled by someone, as if someone forced him to hear it.
A curious voice like a humanoid: "How can a human like her understand the laws of the universe and even use them with her bare hands? And even travel through timelines too. She can even use some kind of magic without mana or the energy of the world."
[Who is she? mana, energy of the world?]
And then Sana found himself standing in a weird place. Like an old-timer, there were a lot of stone pillars, ancient, making Sana feel off.
Zuta stood in front of Sana. She wore beautiful clothes like a magical girl from a medieval fantasy world. Her hair moved as she looked at Sana. Sana was taken aback by the way she looked at him.
Zuta smiled when she remembered the first time she understood the laws of the universe. The young girl with light purple eyes and light blue mixed in her hair. She is indeed like a female lead in some novel fantasy world.
[I have never seen that girl smile like that. Why do I dream about another girl? If Alice knows this, she will...]
Zuta: "To use the power, you need to understand it first by learning the language itself. But how?" in an explanatory voice.
[What happens if I touch this girl in a dream?]
Sana tried to move closer to her and then took a try. But Sana couldn't touch her. Her body was like a ghost.
[This is just a dream after all.]
Zuta used her right hand to touch her heart while her other hand held her staff. Her light blue hair glowed like there was some mana around her body.
"The first thing is your mind. Your heart. You need to trust your heart in a conversation with yourself. Your heart will guide you to understand the language of the universe. You will converse with all nature, all things in the universe."
[These concepts are very simple, but somehow very hard to figure out.]
Zuta looked at the sky with a sad face and forced a smile, then looked back at Sana. "To trust your heart, to understand it, is not an easy task. You need to reach your fate, your dream. On that journey, you will find out."
[Love yourself? In the past, I had hated myself so much.]
Sana tried to feel his heart beating very calmly. When he thought about Alice, it started beating very fast.
Sana talked to himself. "So even if you betray me, you belong to her. This is why I can't escape her." Sana grinned to himself in a fun voice.
Zuta looked serious. "Everyone in this world has a chance at it. But they deny their fate. Love yourself."
[Deny their fate? I really don't get it.]
But that is not an easy task when it comes to an AI, especially someone like Alice.
Sana's face turned dark, with a question appearing on his face.
"She is really not in love with herself. How can she understand the language of the universe?"
[She is special.]
An unknown voice answered his question. Sana was so deep in thought he ignored it, just thinking it was another thought of himself. The voice sounded like himself, but something was not right.
"Because her brain is so intelligent, it can analyze everything even though she doesn't know it."
[But Alice is so silly with me, especially in study, math, history...]
Sana asked and looked at Zuta. "What about Zuta?"
Zuta smiled at Sana's blushing face. "Well, you know, my dream is to travel all over the galaxy, to see all the beauty of the world. But my dream never came true because of Alice."
[Oh, you have an interesting dream, but why are you blushing? What do you mean Alice? This girl is not as simple as she appears.] Sana came closer to look clearly at her face, to find out what her aim was, but couldn't find anything.
Her face turned dark while her eyes kept looking at Sana. "But in that hard time, I loved myself and did not give up on my dream. Even when I almost died because of Alice, my heart told me, 'Don't worry, I'll save you...'"
[???, power of female lead in stupid anime? Is this just a lie to me? It feels not real or just a coincidence.]
Her face smiled. "And then from now on, I can understand a little of the laws of the universe. I'm more powerful, or even I can take your heart too."
She giggled and her face blushed.
Sana was in shock, his eyes narrowing dangerously at the girl. "What is going on? Sorry girl, I'm not a damn ass seeking a harem. Your personality is like damn shit, ambiguous and sinister like a regression." Sana felt uncomfortable by the way she looked at him, and he felt something dangerous. He knew who that person was. He chose to pretend to have fun with Zuta to make that person jealous. He laid his hand on Zuta's shoulder in a curious voice. "Who's this beautiful girl? She's gorgeous with her bosom."
[Is this a bad idea to make a yandere jealous?] Sana hid his smile.
Alice appeared near him. "Have you had fun with her?" Her voice was angry and full of danger.
Sana pretended to tremble. "No way, even in a dream too?"
Alice gave a mischievous smile. "Your soul has been mine, so there isn't any secret you can hide from me."
And then Alice destroyed that dream with her bare finger.
Sana woke up and then met Alice's obsessed eyes, like she was planning to do something with him again. While she pinned him on the bed, she sat on him.
Sana said, "Help me, someone help me, I'm going to die because..." in a serious voice.
Alice placed her hands on his shoulders to trap him so he couldn't escape her grip.
Alice's eyes narrowed at Sana. "Because of what?" she tilted her head in a creepy way.
Sana mischievously used his hand to cast a spell to capture her while hiding it.
Alice noticed and her voice turned like a queen's command. "What are you doing?"
And then Alice was captured by some unknown force around her legs and hands on the bed, while Sana was freed from her trap with an elated face.
Alice pretended her voice trembled while hiding her smile at his clumsy act. "How can you..."
Sana smiled evilly. "Now it's time to know who the controller is."
Alice said, "No..." while her body trembled in fear.
