Chapter 93 Overlapping Worlds
Melia slowly opened her eyes. Actors were interacting on the stage.
Ding ding ding~ the bells are ringing in my ears.
Melia slowly opened her eyes and saw the actors interacting on the stage.
The actresses spun wildly around the stage, their hands creating bouquets of flowers and showering the audience with pink petals. Surrounded by them, the handsome young men wearing crowns sang with their melodious voices, their hearts throbbing.
Huh~ She leaned back in her chair and let out a long sigh: I'm so scared - the Athenian nobles must be crazy, putting so many mummies in the basement... It seems that they are not completely dehydrated, their skin is blue, and they look very creepy.
Fortunately, the Crown of Alexander was successfully obtained. Elena will definitely leave as soon as possible after getting the crown, and the wedding crisis is resolved.
I'll stay in Athens a little longer. What if I can resolve the situation there? If not, I'll have to persuade more people to leave.
Melia fell into deep thought. The murderer who was suspected to be a fairy must want as many people as possible around him, and his ultimate goal was most likely to be a sacrifice.
Considering the attack on Bleda and Sunny, they might need a special bloodline, or perhaps they're trying to incite Greece into war against other nations. Initially, they even tried to order a surprise attack on Elena, but then gave up...
"Hey, hey~" A slender white hand suddenly stretched out from the side. It turned out to be the businessman's young wife.
Her cheeks flushed red. "Look up there! Here comes my favorite scene! What do you think? Are you having trouble sleeping?"
Ugh, it seems really rude to sleep while the actors are performing.
Melia forced herself to look towards the stage. The actress had already finished dancing and was turning her head away proudly, refusing the jewelry given by the prince.
She casually agreed, "Ah~ It's really great. This is the scene where Ianna and the prince meet, right?"
"What!"
The young wife opened her mouth in surprise: "No, no, here, Ianna wants to marry the prince of a neighboring country in order to regain the throne, so -"
"So she deliberately ran into the prince of a neighboring country?"
"No, you didn't see it at all?"
Melia's responses were erratic, her eyelids growing heavier. Was it the pregnancy? She seemed particularly sleepy...
There were people talking next to me.
"She's not Ianna, she's Medea! Ianna betrayed Medea, so she..."
"So she killed her two children..."
The world gradually blurred in my eyes, as if there was an invisible boundary spiraling.
Melia vaguely remembered the feeling of being under the potion's influence, her eyes able to discern the difference between reality and illusion. Now it seemed as if she had gained another perspective, that of a very naive observer.
It summarized the changes in the two perspectives, whispering in her ear, "No, they are both real. They are separating... and will merge in the future."
"How could she kill a child? Whose child? Ianna abandoned Medea because she couldn't produce an heir. Well, at least that was the apparent reason."
The nagging voice in her ears made her dizzy even worse. Melia couldn't help but want to raise her arms and say to her, "Stop!"
But for some reason, his fingers didn't move at all.
Push harder, push harder—suddenly, the transparent medium separated from her body. She stared at her shapeless hand, stunned.
Move, move?
The transparent fingers moved, but the body remained motionless.
No, I have to put my soul back first! Melia pushed down hard and tried to stand up from the chair with her legs.
"...The actor on the stage is Medea~" The voice in my ear became increasingly distant: "To avenge Ianna, she deliberately waited in the forest where the prince passed by. She wanted to conceive the prince's child, so that Ianna could watch [Lover] and [Lover's] child sit on the throne she loved so much."
Hearing this, even though her soul and body were still entangled, Melia couldn't hold it in any longer: "What kind of a plot is this?!"
Brush——
Her body and translucent soul were completely torn apart, and she fell into another boundary in a severe dizziness.
A small ball of light spun like a fish, separated from the body, and merged into the gorgeous soul.
…
Dead again? Well, probably not dead.
Melia touched her neck in a daze. She felt no pain, no itching, and no wounds. The Rose Queen was also floating in her consciousness, not facing her.
She adjusted her expression, smiled, and turned to the side: "Where were we just talking about...ah, where is the person?"
The seats were empty, and when her vision fully recovered, she realized that not only was there no one around her, but the entire theater was completely deserted. Even the stage was just a backdrop, with no actors in sight.
What's even more terrifying is that she remembered that the previous stage was a forest setting with large areas of bright green decorations, but now it has become a desert-like setting with some chicken blood poured on the yellow sand.
Chicken blood is best.
Gulp, Melia swallowed her saliva, lifted her skirt and tiptoed out.
In this situation, if you climb onto the stage and observe carefully, you might find a hundred and twenty zombies rising from the sand. If the Athenian nobles used mummies to make statues, then those stone sculptures outside might also come alive?!
A terrifying scene flashed through Melia's mind, and she saw ghosts everywhere.
It was already dark, and the only lights in the theater were a few oil lamps lit near the stage, illuminating the chicken blood. If this were a horror game, approaching would definitely trigger a chase!
Snap, snap, snap, snap, snap, snap, snap, snap, snap, snap, snap, snap, snap, snap.
Melia ran faster and faster. I don't know if it was an illusion, but it felt like someone was chasing her?!
Her heart was about to jump out of her throat. She ran through the long corridor in one go, slid out of the theater at the speed of a 100-meter sprint, and then - rushed into the cheerful crowd.
There were crowds of people celebrating everywhere, both men and women, most of them bare-chested, wearing only a bib tied around their waists and fastened with a jeweled belt.
This was the ostentatious attire of the Athenian citizens, who were in high spirits, clapping and chatting around the crude stages.
Melia stood in the middle of the crowd and looked around. The people around her had lively expressions and steady breathing. They must be alive!
With so many living people by her side, she gradually put aside her worries, slowly moved outside the crowd, and found a higher step to stand on.
I felt into my arms, but not only did I not find the telescope, I even lost my wallet!
Hey, where's my huge bottle of spare potion?!
Melia searched hard and finally found something wrong: her arm had changed.
The drooping hair was still jet black, and the skin was not clear in the firelight, but the changes in the arms and wrists were clear.
This is not Melia's body, it's more like the body before she traveled through time.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
My heartbeat quickened again, this time truly on the verge of overload. My mind flipped through the pages of "Rose Princess" as quickly as it could, but there wasn't a single mention of time travel.
Whether it is positive or negative, it only records the original and revised plots.
The latest record is... [Elena has obtained the Crown of Alexander, and now, another destiny has found her.]
The biggest difference between the revised text and the original book is that it is concise. It will not replace the original chapters with several chapters, but will only cross out large sections of the original story and record them in summary text.
It's more like an outline than a main text.
Elena received the Crown of Alexander, ushering in a new story? What about me?
Melia touched her body and confirmed once again that she looked more like her original self, at least not the original owner.
Oh no! If I change back to this, Elena, Taffy, Ronnie... so many people won't recognize me at all! Even more terrifying is that there's something wrong with "Athens" right now.
She looked back at the empty theater and then at the bustling square, but didn't see a single familiar face.
Even if Taffy, the young couple, and a large group of slave traders abandoned her and ran away secretly, it could not explain why the lifeless Athenians returned to "normal".
What should she do next? Melia searched her clothes but found nothing, not even a single copper.
The only valuable thing on her body was the same high-end robe as Roman Melia's.
Q: How can I survive alone in a different world? Waiting online, very urgent.
…
"Hey, hey! Stop pretending to be asleep!"
Snap! The crisp sound of a slap exploded in his ears, and Antonio suddenly opened his eyes: "Zeus! I am willing to be a human again... Elena?!"
The two people looked at each other, both looking at each other with a weird look.
After a few seconds, Antonio touched his abdomen and said, "Do you remember that you just stabbed me with a sword?"
"Huh? Sword? Are you crazy? Let's go quickly. Do you want to get involved in the muddy waters of the city?" Elena drew out her scimitar and gestured in front of him.
Alive, he is still alive.
Antonio clenched his fist and felt the warmth of his palm. The moment he was on the verge of death seemed like just a dream.
Is that the power of the Alexander's Crown? It pulls the "enemy" into an illusion or something...
Wait, the Alexander Crown? Why isn't that crown on Elena's head?!
He pushed himself up with both hands and turned over from the ground: "Your Highness, think carefully, where is your crown!"
My crown?
Elena vaguely remembered that just now, Meimei rushed out from outside wearing a laurel wreath, threw the crown into her arms with a squeaking sound, and disappeared with a bang, as if a dog was chasing her.
The knowing smile just formed and then disappeared. She silently patted her empty stomach and pockets, then frowned: "You stole it?"
"It wasn't me! I just died!"
Antonio pounded on the wall. "I was just controlled by magic and rushed over to fight you for the crown, and then you killed me with a sword. I know you only brought a knife, but [that] Elena used a sword!"
“…”
Elena looked at him doubtfully. Although the guy in front of her had no reason to lie, this statement was obviously not true.
She didn't have her sword, Antonio wasn't dead, and even the Crown of Alexander was gone.
Antonio quickly realized this as well. He raised his hand sincerely and pointed outside: "Believe it or not, we should leave now. You are not afraid of being discovered by the guards, and other Romans are also afraid of the guards."
"Promise me you'll try your best to get them back alive."
"Elena... I know you'll weigh the pros and cons and decisively give up the "loss," but can you... minimize the losses?"
"Let's go."
She turned her head and jumped out of the window.
The bright moonlight shines on my body, revealing a radiant glow...
Antonio raised his face in despair, not caring whether it would alert the guards or not.
"Your Highness - why has your body become translucent?!" The transparency was not like that of glass. It was more like the body had lost some of its color and became translucent.
Elena looked at her hands in horror and turned around: "You too!"
In the moonlight, Antonio was more transparent than her, and the remaining part was almost blurred with the night and blended together.
