The only chance
Having recovered from the Honorific Name "The Original Creator in the Mirror," Franca continued her fierce battle with "The Black Witch" Clarisse.
Gradually, she noticed something was wrong:
The illusory, dark mirror Tunnel around them had lost their Gray-White color, were no longer Petrification, and no longer hindered their escape;
The "Black Witch" was primarily focused on responding to and protecting the Gray-White Altar where the Statue of the "Primordial Witch" was placed;
The "Black Witch" revealed both Concealment Honorific Name the "Primordial Witch," which, aside from causing her own emotions to fluctuate, creating openings, and briefly putting her at a disadvantage, had no other effect and did not bring about the terrifying Corruption she had anticipated.
What was her real purpose in revealing such a major Concealment? Was it just to scare me and turn the tide? Franca felt a strong sense of doubt.
Suddenly, she had a guess:
The "Black Witch" didn't appear here to wait for me; she has another mission!
"Was my encounter with the ' Black Witch ' actually the result of the Convergence Law of Beyonder Characteristics at work?"
"The ' Black Witch ' would immediately seal off the Tunnel and eliminate any potential threats upon sensing the arrival of Outsider nearby..."
"After fighting for a while, realizing that I had completely absorbed the ' Unaging ' Potion and that it was impossible to determine a winner in a short time, she chose to pretend to be fighting with all her might, neglecting her surroundings, and quietly released part of the Petrification from the mirror Tunnel. She then tried to scare me away by using the two Concealment aspects of the Primordial Witch's ' Honorific Name?"
What does this tell us?
"This shows that her setting up the Altar here has a very important purpose, and it also shows that the two Concealment parts of the ' Primordial Witch's ' Honorific Name will no longer be a secret in a little while!"
"Furthermore, the Beyonder Characteristic Aggregation power between us shouldn't be strong enough for me to ' Teleportation ' to her vicinity. In the Mirror World, there are Witch of a higher level and with stronger Aggregation abilities than her..."
"Besides its Beyonder Characteristic, what attracted me here was also..."
Franca suddenly remembered the "Primordial Witch" Statue in her "Traveler's Bag".
Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at the Altar made of Gray-White stones, and then at the "Primordial Witch" Statue made of White Bone placed on the Altar.
There's a problem!
Using the power of the "Ice Mirror Charm," Anthony traversed the spiderweb-like tunnels within the Tunnel, heading towards the direction pointing to the team leader.
Just as he was about to reach his destination, he was greeted by a burst of intense sunlight, like an explosion of the Sun.
Anthony instinctively closed his eyes, and patches of Gray-White scales appeared on his skin.
This is a sign that Loss of Control.
He quickly Soothing himself down and controlled his mental and emotional fluctuations.
Fortunately, the burst of light only lasted for a brief moment before it coalesced at the edge of the Special Mirror World, becoming an invisible Barrier.
Anthony persevered and returned to normal. Then, he saw Ludwig body had just materialized, and Jenna, whose eyes had reopened. He also saw several figures that kept flashing, resembling Mr. The Fool.
Jenna gazed at the Barrier formed by the condensed light, recalling the stellar explosion that seemed capable of creating a world, her heart sank to the bottom, plunging into Abyss.
This situation signifies that Mutation has occurred Depths within the Special Mirror World!
That Great Terror may have been triggered...
Therefore, the probability of Lumian surviving, or even being able to survive, is extremely low...
Just then, a voice rang in Jenna's ear:
"Actually, there is still a chance to save Lumian Lee, a chance with a certain degree of success."
Jenna turned her head sharply to the side and noticed a young man wearing Pointed Soft Hat, Monocle, and a classic magic robe.
"Amon..." Jenna's lips moved, uttering this name.
Amon glanced at the "The Fool" who had "split" into a new form and was now looking this way, then shook his head with a smile and muttered to himself, "Why am I always the one doing this?"
"Don't Prophecy next time that I'll be the light when the Apocalypse comes..."
As he spoke to himself, he produced a sheet of White Paper from somewhere, then looked at Jenna and said, "That opportunity is yours, but the price is your life."
"My life... "Jenna repeated the phrase blankly.
Before Jenna could respond, Amon sped up his speech, as if multiple people were reciting in a relay, almost creating a grand, layered effect:
"Time is limited, so I will only tell the key points of the story."
"Commission by Amon, Celia Bello discovers Harrison from the Western Continent, obtains Special Mirror World Fragment, and encounters the Shadows of Krismona."
"In her subsequent promotions, Krismona's Shadows would repeatedly remind Celia Bellow of the dangers of being a pure Women Witch and the possible sources of those dangers. This did not dissuade Celia Bellow; instead, it spurred her to persist on this path. Because of her humble origins, her past as a ' Exaggerated Woman,' and her witnessing of the death of her loved ones, Celia Bellow yearned to become powerful and wanted to seize every opportunity to become strong in order to protect those she wanted to protect. The special nature of being a pure Women Witch made her see the possibility of being used. Being used meant that she might receive a 'gift' and become High-Ranking Being in a very short time."
"She was willing to take the huge risks that came with it; she has always been someone who is good at taking all-or-nothing gambles."
"Through the author's arrangement, Celia Bello successfully evaded the Witch Sect's investigation and also relied on the special nature of the small Sacrificial Plaza in the Catacombs to avoid the gaze of the ' Primordial Witch ' Cheek, until the ' The Fool,' sir, began to awaken."
After uttering the title "The Fool," Amon paused, then added a slight lift to the tone of "Sir."
He looked at the White Paper and continued reading, "In the end, Lumian Lee and Franca Roland both handed over the Special Mirror World Fragment they had to Jenna for safekeeping, which allowed her to unexpectedly collect three pieces, the Trinity, the three Pillar that give rise to all things."
"Now, Jenna has a chance to save Lumian Lee, which is to forcibly advance to the ' Witch of Unaging ' before the ' Despair ' Potion is fully digested, and with the help of the special characteristics of a pure Women Witch and the three fragments of the Special Mirror World, transfer the Great Terror Depths the Special Mirror World to her."
"In this way, the Barrier of the Special Mirror World will shatter instantly, and the great ' The Fool ' will surely be able to pull Lumian Lee, who was only Resurrection with Alista Tudor in his body, back from the brink of consciousness death and mental alienation. Praise the Fool!"
"This is a concept; what will happen is not certain, but it is supported by three facts:"
"The first fact is that the only pure Women Witch before Krismona, died in the ' War of the Four Emperors,' and the Witch Sect has been suppressing pure Women Witch;
"The second fact is that Krismona's Wraith said that pure Women Witch would face a test when they were to advance to the ' Witch of Unaging ' level, and if they failed, something extremely terrible would happen. It has been confirmed that this is not a lie."
"The third fact is that the Great Terror Depths within the Special Mirror World is related to the two Pathway of ' Witch ' and ' Hunter '."
"This shows that both purely Women ' Witch ' and purely Men ' Hunter ' could attract that Great Terror, but only ' Witch ' are closely connected to the Mirror World and the ' Person in the Mirror '."
Amon raised his head, adjusted his Monocle, and looked at Jenna, saying, "The author of the story only knew these facts. Before that burst of light, He didn't know what was hidden in the Special Mirror World."
"In other words, His idea has only a certain chance of success. Unexpected Change may occur along the way, leading to failure. This probability is even very high. However, with our great Mr. The Fool, He can amplify the possibility of success and reduce the probability of failure."
"Even so, success is not guaranteed. No one knows what other special Great Terror Depths within the Special Mirror World."
"Celia Bello has reached a crossroads of choice."
On one hand, there's the question of whether Lumian Lee can survive, and on the other hand, there's her own life.
"Whether this matter succeeds or fails, she is bound to die, because what is needed is not for her to pass the test during her promotion, but to face failure during the test."
"Because the great ' The Fool ' woke up early, the author of the story failed to properly arrange Celia Bello's brother, which would have led to many things being exposed prematurely. Therefore, Celia Bello is no longer in a desperate situation and is not forced to make the only choice."
So, what was her answer?
Only when she heard the last question did Jenna seem to snap out of her daze.
At this moment, a frequently Flash figure that "split" out of "Mr. The Fool" said to her, "You can choose not to make a choice, or you can make the opposite choice."
"I will do my best to destroy the Barrier as quickly as possible. If that's not possible, I will seal this place away."
As the voice came near and then receded, Jenna finally snapped out of her daze and understood what Amon had just been saying:
It turns out my insistence on following the path of a purely Women Witch was all preordained... even my emotions, reactions, and thoughts were anticipated...
It turns out that Julian almost became the target of my scheme because of my "special" nature, facing either death or madness...
So the reason I wasn't discovered by the Witch Sect all this time was because I was being manipulated all along...
Jenna had long anticipated being arranged for herself and was mentally prepared. She was willing to take risks and accept the "gift" in order to become stronger as soon as possible and protect the people she wanted to protect. However, she did not expect that there would be no risks, only death. She was just a sacrifice, a tool, a cheap Puppet being pulled on a Puppet and performed on a stage.
At this moment, she truly understood the feelings Lumian had when recounting her experiences and arrangements before becoming the "Witch of Despair".
Everything seemed meaningless; all was filled with Despair.
Jenna felt she should be angry, resentful, and madly Curse everything, and do everything in her power to resist.
She actually had all these emotions, but...
Jenna turned her head to look at the Barrier that was frozen in a blinding light.
A smile gradually appeared on her face, and she said softly to herself, "But..."
"I do."
