Exorcist's Self-Cultivation-Chapter 656 - 653 Du Wei is about to wake up

Chapter 656: 653, Du Wei is about to wake up. Chapter 656: 653, Du Wei is about to wake up. The next day.

Within the Wittebach family estate.

Warm sunlight filtered through the glass, illuminating the sickroom.

Du Wei lay quietly in bed.

His eyes were tightly shut; his consciousness still trapped in a dream, unable to control his body.

Alex lay prostrate at the bedside.

Several days had passed since they disembarked from the Ghost Ship.

...

Alex’s body recovered very quickly.

She was already completely fine.

She had been accompanying Du Wei the whole time, and she also discovered some strange powers she had gained, along with some fragments of memories.

Whenever she fell asleep.

Alex would have a dream.

In the dream, she was in the Victorian Era, named Minette, a very powerful huntress.

It could be said.

She stood at the pinnacle of that era.

Hunting down Evil Spirits, exterminating Demon Spirits.

She was the era’s only huntress bestowed with the title “Her Excellency.”

But that dream was too blurry.

She only remembered that in the past, she also met a Du Wei, a man behind a mask, stronger than her, treating her with mixed feelings.

Sometimes gentle.

And sometimes cold and heartless.

Of course…

The Alex in her dreams mostly encountered the cold and heartless side.

She dreamed that.

She charged at him with a longsword, only to be kicked away by him, her sword crushed into pieces with ease. The fragments stabbed into the ground in front of her, nearly taking her life.

She also dreamed that.

On an island in the middle of a lake, she seemed to be used by him, deceived, and he even wanted to kill her.

Suddenly…

A beam of sunlight shone on Alex’s face.

She abruptly opened her eyes, her forehead slick with sweat.

“I had another nightmare…”

Alex wiped the sweat from her forehead, bit her lip, her mood not as calm as her tone.

This time.

She dreamed of a dark space.

It was as if she could hear the ticking of clock hands.

And a pair of cold eyes, high above, looking down at her with an emotionless gaze.

Sigh…

Sigh…

Alex’s breathing was a bit rapid, her complexion changing uncertainly. She turned to look at Du Wei lying in the sickbed, a strange flicker in those azure eyes.

“Those eyes…”

“They resemble yours…”

Before, Alex always thought Du Wei was just an Exorcist. Even after becoming a Huntress, she was unclear about just how formidable he was.

After all…

Du Wei’s escapades were always shrouded in excuses and pretexts, his words never truthful.

However.

That was all in the past.

Now Alex saw through Du Wei completely.

Men…

Alex couldn’t help but stretch out her hand to stroke Du Wei’s cheek, softly asking, “I’ve been dreaming lately, and the you in my dreams feels entirely different from you.”

“The you in my dreams is terrifying, and you seem not to care about my life at all.”

“I want to convince myself that it’s just a dream, but I always feel it’s all real. So have you always been wearing a mask around me?”

She was reluctant to believe it.

These words were also something she would only say while Du Wei was unconscious; once Du Wei woke up, she wouldn’t bring it up again, as it might disrupt their relationship.

At that moment.

Alex felt a sharp pain in her head; she groaned softly, murmuring, “Minette, that seems to have been my name before; His Excellency the Duke, Du Wei…”

Murmuring phrases only she understood.

What she didn’t realize was.

In his coma, Du Wei’s right hand trembled slightly.

It seemed like a sign that he might wake up soon.

But it was just a moment before everything went still again.

…

In his dream.

Freddy, Envelope, and Brother Shadow were all together.

Only Lock Ghost Puton was pinned to the ground, persistently cursing Alfaria.

Du Wei sat atop the Demon Stele.

His expression was very colorful.

“No way, why can you only remember me hitting you?”

Du Wei could hear the outside world in his dream.

He felt embarrassed.

Regaining control of his body was happening faster than he’d anticipated.

By tonight at the latest, he would return to reality.

But a mumbling from Alex left him at a loss.

“It looks like denying I hit her won’t work, I must come up with a solution. I can’t waste time on this.”

The one who hit her wasn’t even him.

Why was this all being blamed on him now?

Did Evil Spirit Du Wei have anything to do with him?

One was an evil spirit.

The other, a human.

They weren’t even the same species. Even if they looked alike, even with the same personality, the same consciousness, they couldn’t be conflated!

Du Wei was very clear about what he needed to do now.

There were too many things for him to resolve.

If things with Alex weren’t handled well, his personal life would become a complete mess.

To the side.

The Envelope floated over.

[Great master, your gaze is quite sinister. Do you have some evil plan in mind?]

As Du Wei’s number one lackey

Envelope knew him far too well.

It’s like the difference between a young girl and a married woman.

The former gives you the fresh love of youth, but the latter offers the extravagant pleasure of being able to mount and ride at a slap of your backside.

Envelope understood this well.

Freddy also came up close with a fawning look at Du Wei, saying, “Devil Master, anytime you wish, I can use your good brother’s dreams as a springboard to affect reality.”

This Nightmare Evil Spirit now loved nothing more than to broaden its horizons in Tom’s dreams.

Yet without Du Wei’s nod, it dared not act, and it couldn’t leave this dream either.

Du Wei glanced coldly at his two underlings.

He said calmly, “Freddy, there’s nothing for you at the moment. When I need you next time, I’ll call for you.”

Freddy smiled awkwardly and stepped back.

The Envelope trembled with excitement.

Indeed.

The next second, its master stared at it, saying, “Envelope, Alex now knows about your existence. Once I wake up, both you and Brother Shadow will return to reality with me, and I have something to say to you.”

The Envelope said excitedly, [Master, please speak.]

Du Wei continued calmly, “When I get out, I’ll have amnesia. I won’t remember anything about the Ghost Ship, all that messy stuff. I’ll only remember that I am Alex’s boyfriend, a hunter from the church, you understand?”]

According to those melodramatic stories,

It was quite normal for the male and female leads to have amnesia.

And with no memory, no matter how the other person questioned him, he would have the perfect excuse to fob them off.

But the Envelope was stunned, [Master, do you mean for me to collude with you to deceive our mistress?]

Du Wei said coldly, “I never lie.”

[The Envelope understands, it understands so well. How could you, a villain, possibly lie? It’s all slander, shameful slander.]

Du Wei grunted, “Also, if she asks about the Duke, or the other me, or about Minette, I’ll say I don’t remember. And if she questions you, you’ll have amnesia with me.”

“We’ve never been to Hell’s Gate, nor do we know anything about Minette.”

“As for His Excellency the Duke, he has absolutely nothing to do with me.”

[But master, don’t you have Duke Bai’s Cult? That statue looks exactly like you, masked and everything. Moreover, there’s Brother Shadow and me; that’s hard evidence…]

[Plus, her cousin Frobin is the head of Duke Bai’s Cult…]

[When you went undercover at the Vanity Sect, this matter even blew up. Just a little investigation would reveal the truth.]

Du Wei chuckled coldly, “But what does that have to do with my amnesia?”
