Time ticked by, second by second.
With one minute left on the countdown, Gleipnir suddenly noticed that the random task in her mind—"Distinguish Truth from Falsehood"—was slowly fading away.
As if it were being wiped away by a chalkboard eraser, it gradually dimmed until it vanished completely.
At the same time.
The two Star Worms atop the heap of ruins suddenly began to flicker.
As the flickering appeared, the two concentric circles beneath their feet began to rapidly contract. In the end, the white concentric circle swallowed the black one.
At the instant the black concentric circle disappeared, the flickering came again. When it ended, the "Star Worm" seated on the right vanished as well.
Only one Star Worm remained atop the ruins.
Seeing this, Gleipnir understood that Star Worm had seen through the Copycat Monster's true form and successfully completed his random task.
Angel's clicking tongue sounded beside Gleipnir's ear. "He cleared it even faster than I imagined. The very first time he saw the Copycat Monster's true mirror image, he immediately locked onto it and swiftly broke the corresponding mirror."
"Even the Copycat Monster's face was a pitch-black nebula... How did he judge it?"
Gleipnir did not answer, because the Star Worm atop the ruins had already opened his eyes.
Although Star Worm had opened his eyes, he did not immediately react to the outside world. Instead, he lowered his head, seemingly pondering something.
It was not until Gleipnir called out to him that he came back to himself.
"What happened just now?" Gleipnir pretended to be surprised.
Star Worm flipped over and leapt down from the top of the ruins. "You came in too? Then did you see it just now?"
"See what? You mean... two of you?"
"Two of me?" Star Worm froze, not understanding.
