Star Rail, Single Draw Acheron at the Start

"There was a mosquito over there just now, I wanted to catch it."

Caelus explained with a serious expression. Robin didn't press the matter, and besides, there were no such things in the dream world. If the Family were to create mosquitoes in dreams, they would definitely be sprayed to death on the cosmic wall.

"Let's go, I'm a dream expert. I can easily find any shop you want to go to."

Caelus waited for Robin to finish her ice cream before getting up and saying. Robin had no lingering attachment to the shop, so she put on her mask and sunglasses, ready to leave with Caelus.

"What are you doing?"

Robin suddenly saw Caelus reach out and take her empty ice cream cup, and asked in confusion.

"This is a cup used by a super big star. If I sell it, it'll start at at least a hundred million Credits."

Caelus said with a chuckle. Robin's cheeks immediately turned red. She wished she could slap Caelus with her wings. Her lip print was still on the cup. It was fine when Caelus didn't mention it, but now she was unhappy.

"Don't do such unnecessary things!"

Robin reached out to snatch the cup from Caelus's hand, but he put it into his Dream Manual even faster. The Dream Manual had a characteristic: it would create stickers for things with special meaning and give them to tourists. Just then, a sticker with an ice cream cup on it fell out of the Dream Manual.

"?"

Robin looked at the fallen sticker in confusion. She picked it up and took a look. On the back of the sticker was a message: "Ice cream cup used by Robin, one of a kind in the entire dream world. Carrying it might earn you a song from a Diva."

"Why is your Dream Manual also so unprofessional?"

Robin was convinced. She returned the sticker to Caelus, giving up her resistance. It was the first time she had seen the Dream Manual create a sticker for something like this, but she figured Caelus was probably the first person to do so.

"Like master, like item."

Caelus said with his hands on his hips, looking proud. Robin's lips twitched, as if she were smiling. To avoid further embarrassment in the shop, she pushed Caelus's back and walked out. She couldn't stay a moment longer.

After Robin left, Sunday emerged from his hiding spot. Before the waiter could clear the table, he searched for the glass his sister had used, but found nothing.

"Damn it, he predicted me!"

Sunday gnashed his teeth in hatred. He had also come to collect things Robin had used, but Caelus had gotten the ice cream cup first. All that was left on the table was the cup that had contained the Sour Plum Juice. Robin had drunk the Sour Plum Juice with a straw, but it was better than nothing.

Caelus walked with Robin through the streets of Golden Hour, stopping to introduce her to the surrounding shops. Robin listened attentively. Although she knew the place very well, she had never sneaked out to play in disguise. She was usually brought out by Sunday.

"We're here, this is the famous Dream Vending Shop."

Caelus brought Robin to a plaza. A unique, large eyeball was embedded in the wall of the plaza. Caelus, as their guide, introduced it grandly.

"I know this place, but do they sell merchandise of Clock Boy here?"

Robin asked somewhat blankly. She remembered this place sold dreams, so when did it start selling merchandise?

Doctor Edward, who was in hibernation, was jolted awake by the sound of Caelus's voice. When it saw Robin, the center of its eyeball turned completely black. Its thought was probably: It's over.

"I don't know, but this is a shady shop. Who knows what strange things they might sell."

Caelus said honestly. He didn't know where the Clock Boy merchandise shop was, but he couldn't say so directly. What if Robin ran off? Of course, he had to take her around.

"You're saying one of the most acclaimed shops in the dream world is a shady shop?"

Robin looked at Caelus with suspicion. Although she hadn't bought dreams here before, she knew Doctor Edward's reputation. Who would give this big eyeball a bad review?

"Of course. As a customer, I made a request, and it only let me experience the dream for three seconds before driving me away. Isn't that bullying an honest person?"

Caelus complained to Robin with heartache, pounding his chest and stamping his feet when he reached the sad part, as if he had suffered immense injustice.

Chapter 64: Written all over his face: "Assisting"

Doctor Edward's eyeball immediately became bloodshot. If Caelus was an honest person, then what was it? It had lived for so long and finally met Caelus, which was truly an experience.

"Is that so."

Robin looked at Doctor Edward strangely. What Caelus said didn't seem like a lie, and there seemed to be no need to fabricate a lie to smear Doctor Edward. So, this big eyeball must really have a problem.

"Miss Robin, I can explain. This matter isn't what you think, it's just..."

Doctor Edward stammered. It had grievances it couldn't express. Who knew what trick Caelus had used to lure Robin out? And what it had done couldn't be said openly. The person involved was right here. If it confessed, it wouldn't have to work anymore.

"Doctor Edward, don't rush. Take your time. Ling Qi Ba = Qi V0g Lu."

Robin looked at Doctor Edward's hesitation and thought that it and Caelus must have made some unspeakable deal, which could make the usually calm Doctor Edward like this. Robin had to admit that Caelus was truly a talent, capable of causing trouble wherever he went.

Drip, drip.

The sound of flowing water suddenly appeared. Robin was startled. Q**0U-N Er Yi Shui V Qi Jiu C Liu Shan Ang discovered that Doctor Edward was actually crying. Tears constantly overflowed from the large eyeball, falling to the ground drop by drop.

"Hey, old Ai, why are you crying? A man should be strong. Look at me, I get bullied every day, and I don't say anything."

Caelus said strangely, looking at Doctor Edward. As he spoke, the big eyeball cried even harder.

"Alright, alright, stop crying. Others will think I'm bullying you. Tell me where the shops selling Clock Boy merchandise are nearby, and we'll leave."

Caelus said helplessly. Hearing that he was finally leaving, Doctor Edward quickly threw a map from its eyeball like it was trying to get rid of a plague god. The map circled all the specialty merchandise shops, begging Caelus to leave quickly.

"Old Ai, you're a capable eyeball. I know. I'll come back to experience that dream next time."

Caelus said earnestly, patting the big eyeball. When the eyeball heard that he would come back, it also shed tears of joy.

"See, I found the specialty shops."

Caelus said to Robin, waving the map in his hand. Robin's expression was somewhat indescribable. She didn't know whether to praise Caelus for being capable or to pity Doctor Edward.

Caelus led Robin to the first shop selling merchandise. This place sold figurines. Caelus looked at the various Clock Boy figurines and fell into thought. These things didn't seem as good-looking as the real person.

"How much should I buy?"

Caelus pulled out his credit card, ready to swipe, but Robin shook her head. It wasn't that she didn't need Caelus to pay; it was for another reason.

"These are probably limited to one per customer."

"Oh, right. How many do you want then?"

Caelus remembered encountering the same frustrating purchase limit when he wanted to buy souvenirs before. The difference between the Dreamscape Store and outside shops was that they didn't fear a lack of customers or unsold goods, so they naturally imposed purchase limits to attract more people.

"I want to fill my room with them," Robin said with a smile. Caelus chuckled as he looked at her expectant face.

"Alright, I'll figure something out."

Caelus acted immediately. He and Robin bought all the limited items in the store before leaving. Caelus found an advertising sign by the roadside that was soliciting customers. He tore off two strips of black beard from its face and stuck them to his own lips. Then, he entered the store again.

The cashier recognized Caelus as a customer who had been in before. However, he had stuck on a fake beard, clearly indicating he was someone else. For the cashier, it was better to turn a blind eye to this matter. If they insisted on being strict, it would only cause trouble for themselves.

The employees in the Dreamscape Store were ordinary people, at best earning a higher salary than elsewhere. They possessed basic emotional intelligence and understood that offending guests invited by the Family would be unwise. Even if the situation escalated, it was uncertain which side the Family would support. They themselves would be the ones losing their high-paying jobs.

Thus, Caelus successfully purchased a second set of merchandise and handed it over to Robin outside. Robin's bright eyes gazed at Caelus. She hadn't expected such a simple and crude method to bypass purchase limits. She had thought Caelus would resort to coercion or bribery.

The roadside advertising signs had suffered. They were usually adorned with various parts to dress themselves up. Under Caelus's control, even a passing robotic dog would have something plucked from it. After going back and forth more than ten times, Caelus had finally cleared out all the merchandise in the store.

"You've worked hard."

Robin looked at the ever-increasing pile of Clock Boy merchandise and sincerely thanked Caelus. Although she wanted to help, she didn't have many things to use for disguise, especially not Caelus's thick skin to enter the store over ten times and still pretend it was his first visit, asking the staff to recommend merchandise. Robin couldn't help but laugh.

"It's no problem. If you want to thank me, sing for me. A private concert by Robin, with only me as the audience. Just thinking about it makes me want to laugh myself awake from my dreams."

Caelus gave Robin a thumbs-up. Robin looked at him calmly and nodded. It was just the time for one song; of course, she had time. Compared to Caelus, who had done so much for her, this was nothing.

Caelus's smile bloomed like a flower. However, before he could enjoy his happiness for a few seconds, a commotion erupted around them. Men and women with ferocious expressions ran over from a distance, shouting Robin's name.

Robin and Caelus froze for a moment but reacted quickly. Caelus grabbed Robin's hand and pulled her, urging her to run forward. He remembered the way they came and, after a short run, turned and hid in a secluded alley. After they hid, a vast crowd followed behind them. Some chased after them, while others searched the vicinity for Robin's trace. They didn't seem like people from the Family.

Caelus raised his hand and made a shushing gesture to Robin, then stepped out of the alley, standing firm to block some of the line of sight for Robin. He then casually grabbed a man wearing a headband with Robin's merchandise on it.

"Buddy, where's Robin? Who told you she's here?"

Caelus didn't ask for information for free. He directly took out a handful of dream currency from his pocket and stuffed it into the man's hand. Seeing so much Mallow currency, the man's dissatisfied expression instantly turned into a joyous smile.

"I don't know. Someone suddenly posted in our Robin fan group saying Robin was out in casual clothes nearby. Look, there's a photo here."

The fanatical male fan said and showed his phone to Caelus. There were chat records in Robin's fan group, showing Robin's casual outfit for the day and the surrounding streets. It was clear where she was.

Caelus stroked his chin, thinking. Firstly, this assist definitely wasn't from her older brother. It was likely from the Masked Fool, who was probably infuriated to death. If she had the ability to infiltrate chat groups like this, it meant he would have to thank her for her assist again.

PS, please collect, recommend, and vote monthly.

Chapter 65: Aren't You Going to Say Thank You, Director Hua?

After asking, Caelus returned to the alley and explained the current situation to Robin. Robin was also helpless. She felt as if the Masked Fool was somehow on Caelus's side, wondering if she was helping him or harming him.

"If we get exposed, today's shopping trip will have to end here," Robin said, her meaning clear. If she were found by her fans, she would have to rely on the Family's power to maintain order and would be escorted home.

"Even if I die, I will personally escort you home," Caelus said, patting his chest. How could he bear to end his date with Robin so soon? Penacony's dreamscape was an endless night. As long as Robin was willing, they could play until the end of time.

"This alley looks suspicious. Let's check it out."

Fan voices could be heard from outside the alley. Robin and Caelus's expressions turned serious. The fans weren't foolish; they knew to search suspicious corners for Robin's trace.

Caelus placed his hands on Robin's shoulders, pressing against the wall, using his body to shield most of Robin's form. This way, anyone entering wouldn't be able to clearly see Robin's attire and appearance.

"Hug me," Caelus whispered in Robin's ear. Robin's heart rate quickened slightly, but to avoid being discovered by the fans, she could only slowly raise her hands and place them on Caelus's back. However, they maintained some distance between them. Rather than hugging, it was more like they were pressed together like this.

At this moment, Robin's fans had entered the alley. Seeing a couple standing by the wall, they curiously looked over.

"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen a couple showing affection?"

Caelus turned and glared at the people beside him, shouting. His expression was that of someone whose good mood had been ruined. The fans glanced around, their momentum lost. They didn't find anyone else, so they cursed and left.

"Let's go, let's go. Miss Robin would never be seen hugging a man like this."

The fans were looking for Robin, and their thinking was stuck in a rut. They believed Robin would never date anyone, nor would she meet someone in a place like this. She must have gone somewhere else.

"Phew, let's get changed," Caelus said, relieved when the people left, then said to Robin. Robin's emerald eyes glared at him, as if telling him not to push his luck.

"Little bird, you misunderstood. They know what you're wearing. I meant we need to switch clothes to get away," Caelus said with a smile, reaching out to touch Robin's face, but she turned her head away.

"Don't call me Little Bird."

Robin's tone carried a hint of displeasure, but that was all. The nickname wasn't unpleasant; it was just a bit too intimate.

Robin took off her jacket and hat, which were important for identifying her. After her hat was removed, the Sky Ring on her head floated up. Caelus had always found this strange structure incomprehensible, but he could only understand it if he married Robin in the future.

Caelus also took off his coat. His clothes also had a long hem design, which fit Robin perfectly. With the addition of a hood, it could completely cover the Sky Ring on her head.

After the two changed clothes, they walked out of the alley. After their disguise, Robin's attractiveness decreased significantly. Almost all her hair was covered, and without her hair color and wings to identify her, her fans wouldn't recognize her even if they passed by.

"I'm wearing the clothes of a big star now. Smells great."

Caelus said as he tightened the linen clothes he was wearing. Robin hadn't worn them for long, but a faint scent still lingered on them. Caelus was smiling so wide his mouth almost reached his ears.

"Don't you dare say it out loud."

Robin raised her hand to hit Caelus. She really couldn't stand it. She knew these things in her heart, just like how she could now smell the man's scent on the clothes. But she didn't say it. Yet Caelus, who couldn't keep things to himself, said it out loud and made her angry.

"Alright, alright, I'll listen to you."

Caelus quickly put his hands up in a defensive posture. Seeing him like this, Robin couldn't help but chuckle. She lowered her raised hand and walked with him on the street, avoiding waves of searching fans.

"Robin, your Family seems to be looking for you too."

Caelus pointed at the extra people in black on the street. These people were dressed differently from the fans and looked like professionals. In fact, most of Robin's fans were people working in the dream world, a few were honored guests who received invitations, and some were ordinary people who spent all their savings to get tickets to enter the dream. Reputable people wouldn't chase Robin on the street; it was too impolite.

"It must be my brother, worried about me, wanting to take me home."

Robin immediately understood. Leaving before was out of necessity, and now that her fans were frantically looking for her, her brother probably found an excuse to take her home. However, Robin didn't want to leave yet.

"That won't do. You're mine now. I'll return you to Brother Sunday later. Come this way."

Caelus grabbed Robin's hand and pulled her towards the side of the street. Several Family members noticed them and started to chase, but they quickly passed them by because Caelus had already led Robin into a phone booth.

Phone booths appearing on the streets in the dream world looked strange no matter how you looked at it. However, this was no ordinary phone; it was a phone connected to the dream world. Its function was probably to allow you to see what dreams people you know have had recently, though it was all random.

Robin and Caelus squeezed into the narrow phone booth, waiting for a while before leaving. Naturally, Robin picked up the receiver and put it to her ear, randomly dialing a few numbers to test whose dream she could see.

As the call connected, the scene around Robin began to blur. She had entered someone's dream. She observed carefully and realized that this dream seemed to be Caelus's. She hadn't expected to see his dream on the day she met him. It was a good opportunity to see what bad things this guy was thinking. Perhaps it was because he had done too many bad things that Robin felt no moral guilt about peeking into Caelus's dream.

Robin soon saw herself standing in front of Caelus. Then, with lightning speed, Caelus rushed forward, hugged her, and kissed her.

At that moment, Robin's mind went blank. She looked at herself kissing Caelus in the dream. Her wings spread wide in surprise, which was exactly how she usually acted. She had even blushed from the kiss. This dream didn't seem like something Caelus would imagine; it was as if it had actually happened.
