Lottie felt very happy.
She liked the beautiful garden in her family mansion, and she enjoyed playing freely here with her sister and her best friend.
Carefree, without worries, there was only happiness and laughter.
However, occasionally she had a feeling, a feeling that she had forgotten something.
It seemed like there were some important things she needed to do.
It felt like it was something very, very important, making her feel unsettled.
But no matter how much she tried, she couldn't remember what she had forgotten...
"Lottie! What are you daydreaming about?"
Her friend's clear and melodious voice interrupted her thoughts.
Looking at her friend's lovely appearance, Lottie felt her mood brighten."I... I don't know, I just feel like I've forgotten something."
Lottie shook her head and said.
"If you can't remember, then don't think about it! If you can't remember, it must not be anything important! Let's just play happily!"
"Okay, stop worrying! Come on! It's your turn to find us!"
The little girl giggled.
Lottie hesitated.
But when her friend reached out and took her hand, Lottie's worries seemed to fade in an instant.
Yes. Since she couldn't remember what she had forgotten, it meant that whatever she had forgotten wasn't important.
Tonight was her birthday party, and she wanted to play happily!
With that in mind, Lottie's furrowed brow relaxed a lot.
She regained her smile and continued playing with her sister and friend.
Happy times always flew by quickly.
Unknowingly, they played several rounds of hide and seek.
The moon hung high in the sky, scattering its silver light.
Lottie didn't know how long they had been playing, but looking at the moonlight, it seemed unchanged...
As time passed, that faint feeling of unease surged in her heart again.
"Charlotte, have we... been playing for too long? Shouldn't the banquet have started by now?"
"Hey! Lottie! Let them do what they want, and we'll do what we want! Do you still want to pretend to smile with those hypocritical adults?"
The girl pouted.
Lottie thought she had a point.
She really didn't like dealing with those adults who wore masks every day.
Especially in recent years, even the adults at home seemed much colder, the atmosphere more oppressive, making her increasingly uncomfortable.
Only when she was with her sister and friend could she truly relax and be full of laughter.
"Well then... shall we play a little longer?"
She hesitated and said.
"Yeah! Let's play a little longer!"
The little girl said happily.
"Marie! It's your turn to catch us!"
The three of them continued playing hide and seek.
Marie faced the big tree, counting down the numbers, while her friend pulled Lottie's hand and hid in the bushes.
However, just as the two were about to dive into the bushes, the bushes were parted from the outside.
Lottie saw two slender figures appear in front of her.
The leader was a beautiful young lady.
Her magnificent silver hair shimmered in the moonlight, her beautiful face adorned with ruby-like eyes, and her gorgeous yet solemn long dress made her look mysterious and noble...
At first glance, Lottie was stunned, not even able to tear her gaze away to look at the handsome elf behind her.
So... beautiful!
Only this thought remained in Lottie's mind.
What followed was a strange sense of familiarity and intimacy.
That inexplicable familiarity and intimacy made Lottie subconsciously stop and couldn't help but ask.
"Excuse me..."
"Lottie! Someone's here! Let's run!"
Her friend's giggling voice interrupted her words, and she pulled her hand and ran deeper into the garden.
Lottie didn't have time to react and was pulled along.
The two ran deeper and deeper, farther and farther...
Lottie didn't even know how long they had been running, or whether the garden in her family mansion was really this large.
In any case... they ran for a long, long time, but they were still in the garden.
The surrounding trees became denser, and the shadows of fireflies gradually diminished, leaving only the silver moonlight pouring down.
Lottie was out of breath, unable to run anymore.
"Huff... let's... stop for a moment... Charlotte... let's stop..."

But her friend, still holding her hand, laughed without panting.
"Lottie... you have such poor stamina!"
"No... it's just that your stamina is too good, really... I can't imagine that you're not tired after running so far!"
Lottie shook her head and said.
After speaking, she hesitated for a moment and asked again.
"Charlotte... why did you drag me to run? That lady just now seemed to be looking for us."
"Looking for us? Lottie, do you want those hypocritical adults to find us? Don't you feel oppressed when you're with them?"
The little girl asked discontentedly.
Lottie hesitated.
"But... she didn't make me feel oppressed, and... and I feel like she made me feel very familiar, maybe she's someone I knew before..."
"That's enough! Lottie! The only people you know are me and Marie!"
The little girl shook her head and said.
As she spoke, she reached out her hand again towards the girl's arm.
But just as she was about to grab the girl's arm, a hand wearing a white glove suddenly lifted her from behind.
"Your Excellency Valaroka, it's not a good habit to deceive a beautiful lady by pretending to be someone else, especially... the disguise you're wearing really annoys me."
Sebastian smiled as he lifted the girl up like a chick.
Hearing Sebastian's words, the girl's expression changed slightly, and she struggled.
"Who are you! Let me go! Let me go!"
Lottie was also panicked.
"Who... who... who are you! What are you going to do to Charlotte!"
"This is the Brois Mansion! How dare you act recklessly... I'm going to call someone!"
Sebastian smiled faintly.
"Miss Lottie, I'm Sebastian, the one who's going to rescue you from this fake dream."
"Sebastian...? Dream?"
Lottie's expression was confused.
The name Sebastian sounded very familiar to her, but for a moment she couldn't remember where she had heard it before.
"Lottie! He's a bad person! Call the guards to take him down!"
The girl who was grabbed said angrily.
"Hehe, guards? It seems that your recovery is not complete yet, and you still need Miss Lottie to control the dream."
Sebastian chuckled.
With that, he looked down at the little girl in his hand from a high vantage point and sneered.
"Your Excellency Valaroka, although you are a myth... your choice of disguise is not very good."
"What are you talking about! Let me go! I'm the eldest daughter of the Castell family! How dare you treat me like this! Are you trying to make enemies with the Castell family?!"
The girl said angrily.
Sebastian laughed.
Only to see him look towards Lottie's back, and chuckled.
"Great master, did you hear that? It says it's the eldest daughter of the Castell family!"
"It?"
Lottie was stunned.
However, she quickly noticed the gaze of the person behind her.
Lottie couldn't help turning her head, only to see that the beautiful young lady who had just stood in front of her had somehow appeared behind her.
She frowned and looked at the girl who was lifted up by Sebastian, saying coldly.
"Sebastian, get rid of it."
"As you command..."
Sebastian bowed, then summoned a flaming sword, and in Lottie's shocked gaze, pierced the girl's chest.
"Charlotte!"
Seeing her friend pierced through with a sword, Lottie couldn't help but cry out.
But the next moment, she froze.
She saw the girl who had been pierced through the heart by the sword suddenly melt like a candle melting, turning into a black liquid and merging into the ground.
Lottie stared blankly at everything, feeling shocked and confused, until an ethereal voice came from beside her.
"Don't look, it's fake."
Lottie couldn't help but turn her head and look at the beautiful young lady beside her, only to see a crimson light suddenly radiate from her.
Then, a strange scene appeared.
Her figure slowly shrank, quickly turning into a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, her magnificent silver hair turning into dazzling gold, her ruby-like eyes turning into sapphire-like skies, and her facial features were eight or nine points similar to her friend.
"You... you are..."
Seeing the appearance of the other party, Lottie was shocked and uncertain, feeling an unprecedented sense of familiarity and intimacy surging into her heart, as if something in her mind was awakening.
Looking at the girl who showed a puzzled expression, Charlotte sighed lightly.
"Sister Lottie, you should wake up... from this dream."
As she spoke, she reached out and placed her hand on the girl's shoulder.
A brilliant red light bloomed, and Lottie felt the memory gate in her mind shatter, and a massive amount of information flooded into her mind...
