Avira ran through the forest, avoiding repeated attacks from hunters. It was like a race with death, her breath quickened, her heart raced, but her will kept her moving forward. Branches broke in her rapid darting, making a brittle sound, as if composing a tragic symphony for her escape. Despite the panic rising in her heart, she did not allow herself to give up in this dangerous moment.
Suddenly, her gaze fell on a quiet clearing ahead. There, a young man lay on a bed seemingly constructed of leaves and moss, peacefully asleep. She couldn't help but slow down. The man's face was like a delicate piece of art, his golden hair softly scattered on the pillow, his countenance exuding an indescribable melancholy and beauty, as if expressing the inner anxiety and unease.
Avira approached quietly, her eyes filled with curiosity and confusion. She murmured softly to herself, "What's going on here? How could someone be sleeping in a place like this? And this guy is actually quite good-looking."
As Avira stood beside the man, carefully observing his face, her brows furrowed slightly. The man's countenance was unlike any fairytale character she knew, yet it possessed a strange charm. He seemed immersed in an unfathomable dream, unable to awaken on his own.
Avira squatted down, carefully observing the man's breathing and expression. A hint of confusion appeared in her eyes, and a strange thought crossed her mind: "Could this be Sleeping Beauty? No, it can't be. Sleeping Beauty is supposed to be a girl, isn't it?"
She turned her head, looked around, and made sure the hunter was not following. Then, she cautiously brought her lips close to the man's cheek and gently kissed him. This kiss was purely out of curiosity, as she wanted to confirm her speculation.
Miraculously, the young man slowly opened his eyes, filled with confusion. His eyes sparkled with a deep and sensitive blue light.
"Who... who are you?" The man's voice carried a hint of weakness, as if he hadn't spoken in a long time.
Avira took a step back, shocked by the change before her. "I... I am Avira. Wait, you can't really be Sleeping Beauty, can you? How is that possible... you're a boy!"
The man slowly sat up, his gaze shifting over Avira as if assessing her. "I'm Loren. I don't know what you mean by Sleeping Beauty. But you just kissed me, breaking the curse of slumber."
Avira widened her eyes, not knowing what to say for a moment. Her cheeks were slightly flushed, feeling both surprised and a little embarrassed. "I... I was just curious! I didn't expect this to actually happen..."
Loren smiled faintly, a hint of bitterness in his smile. "In this twisted world, nothing is as simple as you think."
Avira tidied up her thoughts and was filled with questions in her mind. "How did you become like this? What exactly happened to this world?"
Loren stood up and shook his head. "I'm not sure either. I only remember being engulfed by an irresistible sense of drowsiness, and then I fell into a long sleep. Every time I wake up, the world around me becomes dark and distorted."
Avira Staring at him, "I think we are both trapped here. Maybe we can help each other and find a way to escape."
Loren looked a bit lost in thought, nodding. "Maybe. But we have to be careful, this world is more dangerous than we imagined."
Avira and Loren's conversation was interrupted by the distant clamor of hunters' shouts mixed with the roar of the evil dragon and the sound of trees being struck. Avira's expression instantly turned serious, her heart racing. These sounds meant danger for her once again.
"Quick, we need to get out of here!" Avira urgently said to Loren, grabbing his hand tightly and leading him to run deep into the forest.
Loren had a leisurely smile on his face, but his eyes were unusually alert, as if he were ready to respond to any sudden situation at any time. He had just woken up from a long sleep, yet his movements were remarkably quick and agile, which surprised Avira.
They moved lightly through the woods, with Avira occasionally looking back to check on their pursuers. Loren, on the other hand, remained calm, his eyes seemingly able to see every corner of the forest, displaying an extraordinary sensitivity to the surrounding environment.
Just as they were about to escape the danger, the hunter and the evil dragon suddenly caught up from behind. The hunter swung his sharp axe with a murderous look in his eyes, while the evil dragon spread its huge wings and let out a deafening roar.
Avira's heart was pounding wildly, her eyes filled with fear. Instinctively, she looked around for a hiding place, but at that critical moment, Loren suddenly pulled her aside, using his own body to shield her and skillfully avoiding the hunter's attack.
"Quick, go hide over there. I'll handle them," Loren said to Avira in a low, firm, and calm voice.
Avira was shocked by Loren's decision, and complex emotions showed in her eyes. But she quickly realized that staying would only be a burden to Loren. She nodded with a determined expression and swiftly hid in a nearby concealed thicket.
Hiding in the shadows, Avira held her breath, filled with worry. At the same time, she admired Loren's decisiveness. In this dark forest, she had to be even more careful to survive in this sinister world.
Loren stood in the clearing, his posture relaxed as if he were enjoying a splendid performance. However, his eyes revealed an undeniable sharpness and alertness. In front of him, hunters and an evil dragon were approaching with great momentum.
The hunter launched the first attack, swinging his sharp axe with a fierce wind towards Loren. Loren, agile and nimble, evaded in a nearly dance-like manner and swiftly counterattacked. Each of his movements displayed astonishing grace and strength, as if he were performing a dangerous dance amidst the hunter's assaults.
Seeing the hunter unable to overpower Loren, the evil dragon joined the battle, unleashing a stream of fire from its gaping maw towards Loren. Loren cleverly used the surrounding environment to evade the fiery assault, skillfully maneuvering between the trees to keep the dragon's flames from reaching him.
In a wild attack, Loren leaped into the air, his figure drawing a graceful arc as he skillfully avoided the hunter's axe. Then, with his astonishing strength, he pushed back the evil dragon, his movements smooth and swift, showcasing his extraordinary combat talent.
In this melee, Loren not only relied on his agility and strength, but also used his intelligence and cunning, cleverly utilizing the terrain and environment of the forest. He led the hunter and evil dragon deep into the forest, using trees and terrain as cover, ultimately successfully repelling them.
Throughout the entire battle, Loren maintained a leisurely and indifferent expression, but his actions were extremely precise and decisive. Avira watched from a hidden place, her eyes filled with astonishment. This seemingly delicate Sleeping Beauty actually possessed astonishing combat power and intelligence, which filled her with deep respect for Loren.
After the battle, Loren turned to look at the hiding place where Avira was, still wearing a relaxed smile on his face, as if everything that had just happened was nothing more than a little game to him. His attitude not only surprised Avira, but also deepened her curiosity about this mysterious Sleeping Beauty.
Loren walked lightly towards the hidden Avira in the bushes, wearing a leisurely smile on his face, as if the previous battle was nothing more than a little game to him. His golden hair shimmered in the sunlight, and his beauty stood out even in this dim forest.
"It seems we are safe for the time being," Loren said softly.
Avira stood up, her eyes shining with admiration. "You were really amazing just now, Loren. I didn't realize you were such a skilled warrior," she said, sounding surprised.
Loren shook his head gently, a modest smile on his face. "In this world, we must learn to protect ourselves. Now, we'd better leave here quickly and find a safe place."
His words are full of realism, revealing his profound understanding of the world. Every action of his seems so relaxed and at ease, as if the experience of brushing shoulders with death is just a part of his life.
Avira is curious about Loren's abilities and attitude. "How long have you been here? How did you become so powerful?" she asked, while also pondering in her heart how many secrets this world truly hides.
Loren smiled faintly and said, "I've only learned how to survive here and stay alert. Now, we'd better leave this place quickly. I feel like the danger hasn't completely passed." His words made Avira even more alert. She nodded and then followed Loren through the woods.
