Chapter 684: Chapter 684: Instruction In Dreams

Ivy’s eyes narrowed sharply as she turned around cautiously.

The moment she did, her breath caught in her throat.

Two figures stood directly before her.

Both of them wore elegant silver garments.

Their long silver hair cascaded smoothly down their shoulders, while their appearances looked so unreal that they resembled celestial beings rather than ordinary humans.

The moment Ivy saw them, an unfamiliar ache surfaced inside her chest again.

One of them smiled softly before calling out, "Princess Ivy."

Hearing that title again immediately made Ivy frown. "You both are Eugenia and Valer?"

Meanwhile, the two figures looked at her gently.

"It seems you still remember us well," the woman spoke softly.

Ivy frowned deeper.

"Remember you?" she repeated uncertainly.

The man slowly stepped forward.

As he approached, Ivy instinctively became alert. Yet strangely enough, despite her caution, her heart reacted with familiarity instead of rejection.

Slowly, he raised his hand and gently caressed her cheek.

"It has been a long time, Sister Ivy," he whispered softly.

The moment those words entered her ears, Ivy froze completely. ’Sister...?’

Her mind became chaotic instantly.

The two of them felt strangely close to her, yet at the same time, her instincts screamed that something was deeply wrong.

Before Ivy could process those emotions properly, the silver-haired woman suddenly spoke.

"We cannot stay long," she said softly. "So listen carefully."

Ivy immediately focused on her.

"You should never reveal your ability to grow vegetables after arriving here; instead, wait till 10 days before you do so," the woman continued seriously.

Hearing that, Ivy frowned deeply.

"Why?" she asked immediately.

Her confusion only intensified.

Not only did she not understand why she would even come to this world in the future, but now these mysterious people were warning her about something she could barely comprehend.

The silver-haired woman looked at Ivy quietly before replying,

"You will understand eventually."

Then her expression became unusually solemn.

"But once you become imprisoned, remember this carefully..."

Her voice lowered almost into a whisper.

"The third brick contains what will lead you to your fate."

Hearing that only confused Ivy even more.

Before she could ask further, the silver-haired man continued speaking quickly.

"Hurry and gain the support of Prince Katlina."

Beside him, the woman nodded seriously.

Ivy stood there completely overwhelmed. Every piece of information sounded fragmented and chaotic, making it almost impossible to understand.

Seeing her confusion, the silver-haired man sighed softly before giving one final warning.

"And don’t trust us. If you wish to win us over..." he began slowly, "you must cure a woman named..."

Suddenly, his voice distorted violently.

The name became blurry and incomprehensible, as though something was forcibly preventing Ivy from hearing it.

However, before the sound vanished completely, Ivy barely managed to catch part of it.

"Princess... Catherine."

Once those words were spoken, both figures looked at Ivy deeply.

"We will be waiting for you," they whispered softly.

And then... they vanished. Just like that.

Ivy remained frozen in place while countless thoughts crashed violently inside her mind.

Slowly, her gaze shifted sideways toward a reflective surface nearby.

The moment her eyes landed on the reflection, her breathing stopped.

A pair of brilliant blue eyes stared back at her.

Before Ivy could even process what she was seeing, a terrifying pulling force suddenly dragged her forward.

Everything blurred instantly.

The next moment, Ivy jerked awake while gasping heavily for air.

Her entire body was drenched in sweat.

Beside her, Silas was already holding her shoulders firmly while gently patting her back. His other hand carefully wiped away the cold sweat covering her forehead.

When he saw Ivy finally opening her eyes, worry immediately filled his expression.

"What happened?" Silas asked quickly. "Why are you sweating this badly?"

Ivy’s breathing remained uneven as she stared blankly ahead.

Then, gripping Silas’s arm tightly, she whispered shakily,

"I’ve seen them..."

Silas frowned immediately. "Seen who?"

Ivy slowly lifted her head toward him. Even now, traces of shock still lingered inside her eyes.

"They..." Ivy murmured weakly. "They said they were my siblings."

Silas’s expression stiffened slightly.

At that moment, Ivy herself still sounded uncertain.

"At least..." she whispered softly, "that is what they claimed. They told me that I need to cure their mother... Princess Catherine... if I want to gain their trust."

Ivy’s voice sounded low and uncertain as she sat quietly beside Silas.

"They also told me not to trust them completely," Ivy continued softly. "And there was something important connected to the third brick in some prison... something about me being imprisoned in the future."

As she spoke, confusion slowly filled her eyes again.

Lowering her gaze toward Silas, she frowned deeply.

"I seem to see them again and again." Ivy murmured, "Why...why?"

Silas quietly listened to her without interrupting. Seeing the unease slowly consuming her again, he gently patted her back in reassurance.

"It’s alright," Silas whispered calmly.

"How about we write every single clue down somewhere? That way, even if the information is confusing right now, we won’t forget anything important later."

His voice carried a steady warmth that slowly soothed the anxiety twisting inside her chest.

"You can keep those clues with you at all times," he added softly.

Hearing that, Ivy gradually calmed down a little before finally nodding.

"Alright," she replied quietly.

After a moment of silence, Ivy suddenly looked up at him again.

"If I really end up going to that world someday..." she asked softly, "would you come with me?" 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Silas blinked once before immediately chuckling.

"Of course," he replied without hesitation. "How could I possibly leave my beautiful wife alone in another world?"

Then his eyes narrowed playfully.

"What if someone there tricks your heart away from me?" he added dramatically. "What if some prince marries you while I’m not around?"

Hearing those ridiculous words, Ivy could not help laughing softly.

The tension surrounding her finally eased slightly as she leaned forward and hugged him tightly.

"I’m really worried," she admitted quietly against his chest.
