A brief battle
The "Black Witch" slightly raised her chin and let out a shriek.
The invisible Sound Wave instantly stained the Mirror with a dull Gray-White color, and Clarisse's hair also broke free from its restraints, knocking off her hat and fluttering, each strand becoming thick and large, as if carved from stone.
This Gray-White spread out from the Full-Length Mirror, freezing the Blazing White white snake with blue flames that rushed in front of it in place, turning it into Statues. It failed to blow up the Mirror as Lumian had predicted, thus preventing the "Black Witch" from using the medium to interfere with the "Fictional Bottle".
Clarisse's Gray-White continued to spread, like a surging tide, quickly engulfing the nearby Armchair, sofa sets, and cabinets, causing them to lose their luster, turn Gray-White, and look much harder.
The Gray-White "tide" quickly covered the entire room, engulfing Lumian and Franca.
Under the restrictions of the "Fictional Bottle," the "Mirror Substitute" seems to lose its effectiveness against similar area-of-effect attacks, because after using the substitute, it still appears in the area that can Petrification people.
The next second, Lumian and Franca, covered in thick dust, degenerated into Gray-White stone mirrors, but their figures did not appear anywhere in the "Fictional Bottle".
The "Fictional Bottle" itself seems to have been Petrification, turning into Gray-White, completely sealed cage.
Seeing this, the "Black Witch" in the Full-Length Mirror muttered to herself:
"They escaped?"
All current events suggest that Lumian, relying on the power of the "Witch of Despair," Franca, aided by the power of the "Ice Talisman," managed to hide inside the Mirror before being Petrification, and then escaped by traveling through it.
The current problem is that, given the "Black Witch's " control over the Mirror World, she could have easily intercepted the two in some illusory, Gloom Tunnel, but she didn't sense anything.
Just then, the "Black Witch" Clarisse received a spiritual warning, turned around abruptly, and cast her gaze toward the dense, illusory spider web behind her.
Inside one of the Gloom lit Tunnel, Lumian, cloaked in Black Cloak and very tall, raised an exaggeratedly designed straight iron-black Straight Sword diagonally with one hand, leaping down to slash at the "Black Witch."
escape?
Those who wield the "Sword of Courage" will not consider this option!
If they really want to escape, it will be a strategic retreat, setting a trap!
The Blazing White white Flames tinged with blue on the "Sword of Courage" instantly surged into a fiery black, like boiling asphalt, carrying a violent and insane power to destroy everything, spirit and flesh.
At the same time, Lumian's naturally hanging left palm pressed down imperceptibly towards the "Black Witch" from a distance.
On his exquisitely crafted wrist, which resembled a work of art, adorned a seemingly inexpensive silver-white bracelet with black accents; his bright, light blue Eyes shone with a silver-black hue.
Boom!
Suppressed, intense, and frenzied black Flames exploded in mid-air, and a violent Impact swept countless black flames toward the "Black Witch" Clarisse.
This Unaging "Witch" didn't use "Petrification" to deal with it; instead, her body rapidly thinned and shimmered with a faint light.
She became a Mirror.
Crack! The Mirror shattered in the explosion, its spirituality utterly withered away in the Black Flame.
The "Flames of Destruction" mixed in with the horrific explosion further engulfed the entire Mirror-Behind Region, extinguishing all life.
Only after the "Flames of Destruction" died down and the aftershocks of the explosion subsided did the figure of the "Black Witch" appear in a corner of the dark, empty Mirror-Behind Region.
She seems to be able to control the time it takes for her to return to reality after using the "Mirror Substitute," preventing her from appearing at the fire scene while the "Flames of Destruction" is still Burning.
Suddenly, behind the "Black Witch," a Mirror hidden in the darkness appeared, reflecting Clarisse's image directly. In the mirror, Lumian's clean face was also illuminated by the remaining firelight, giving it a Gloom hue.
"Mirror Projection"!
As soon as Lumian appeared, she immediately transformed into a quiet, Evil Black Flame, enveloping the "Black Witch's " figure in the mirror.
Only then did the "Black Witch" seem to sense the danger and take the initiative to use "Mirror Substitute".
But she was still a step too late. Her appearance in this corner, in front of the Mirror with Lumian's "Mirror Projection," was not accidental, but a carefully designed ending!
While Lumian appeared to be launching a direct attack with the "Sword of Courage," he was actually focusing on his left hand, which was not holding the sword.
He put on the "Ring of Restraint" in order to raise his ability to "Push Destiny" to Sequence 4!
The fact that he had just expended nearly a third of his spiritual energy had Predestination where the "Black Witch" would appear after using the "Mirror Substitute," making the corresponding tributary part of the main Destiny.
Thus, the "Black Witch" "voluntarily" walked into the trap and stood in front of the Mirror where Lumian's "Mirror Projection" was projected.
Meanwhile, in order to prevent the "Black Witch" from noticing the danger in time, Lumian performed a Anti-Divination on the Mirror before launching the attack. He also deliberately let the "Flames of Destruction" cover the entire Mirror-Behind Region, making it seem as if there were no ambushes in any corner—even if there were, they would obviously be destroyed by the "Flames of Destruction." However, in reality, he used his "Precision" ability to make some of the "Flames of Destruction" subtly bypass the Mirror that had been placed beforehand.
Despite various conspiracies, the "Black Witch" failed to use "Mirror Substitute" before Lumian's "Mirror Projection" could unleash the "Witch's " Curse.
The "Black Witch's " deep gray Eyes, which seemed to conceal rain and mist, suddenly widened, and quiet, Evil black Flames erupted from within her body.
The Black Flame burned rapidly, quickly igniting the soul of "Black Witch" Clarisse, accompanied by a silent explosion.
Curse plus "Harvest"!
Click, click, the figure of the "Black Witch" kept Flash, turning into Mirror.
The Mirror lost their light and became dim, but they could not extinguish the Black Flame burning within the "Black Witch".
A few seconds later, Clarisse, the "Black Witch" who was too weak to use "Mirror Substitute," saw Lumian's figure walk up in front of her.
The beautiful young woman, clad in Black Cloak that made her face appear even paler, raised Giant Straight Sword Burning in Blazing White and blue Flames.
The massive Iron-Black sword came crashing down with a thunderous roar, striking the "Black Witch" at the neck.
Boom!
The pitiful Lady was torn to pieces, her body fragments, wreathed in black Flames, scattered around her.
Franca returned from another Gloom and empty Tunnel, staring at the numerous pieces of corpse on the ground, and said in astonishment, "That's it?"
This is the "Black Witch," a "Witch" whose title comes from a color!
Franca had only hoped that Lumian would temporarily suppress the "Black Witch" to prevent Clarisse from interfering with her escape through the Mirror World. If Clarice successfully escaped, it would be much easier for Lumian, as Sequence 4 Half-God, to disengage from the battle.
Of course, Franca would inevitably hope to find an opportunity to use the "Certain Death" effect of the "Certain-Hit Gun" to accomplish the feat of slaying Half-God. If all else fails, she could use "Certain Hit" plus Pregnancy Bullet to buy Lumian the chance to destroy the enemy.
Lumian didn't sheath the "Sword of Courage," gazing at the still -Burning corpse parts, and said cautiously, "She displayed Sequence 3 level abilities in some areas, but overall she seemed stiff and clumsy. Not only did she not seem like a seasoned ' Witch of Unaging,' but she also appeared weaker than a normal ' Witch of Despair.' She didn't even notice when I Invisibility to place the Mirror..."
Before Lumian could finish speaking, as the "Witch's " Black Flame ceased burning, the pieces of Corpse began to fade and gradually melt away, seemingly returning to nothingness.
"This isn't the ' Black Witch ' in her normal state," Franca quickly concluded.
"This also means we have no Spoils of War." Lumian chuckled, speaking to Franca, who had already used the "Ice Talisman's " final "Mirror Traversal" ability. "Let's go back to the real world first, and I'll check what's left later."
Franca understood that Lumian was worried that the "Black Witch" in her abnormal state might turn into a zombie or cause other accidents. It would be much safer if he came to check on her alone.
Without trying to be brave, Franca placed her hand behind the mirror, left the area, and returned to the living room of room 702 with Lumian.
Everything here had turned to stone, and as the "Fictional Bottle" was released, Gray-White powder fell like rain.
Franca covered her mouth and nose, muttering, "This is utter Corruption."
She reached into the "Traveler’s Bag," intending to take out the remaining Felkine and place them here as compensation for the damaged furniture.
Just then, Lumian suddenly had a premonition, and his figure vanished, disappearing into the shadows and hiding in the bedroom where Jenna used to live.
The next second, Franca also sensed something and turned her gaze to the Glass Window that had been protected by the "Fictional Bottle" and had not yet Petrification.
The left side of the double -Glass Window suddenly became Gloom, and a figure quickly emerged like an image reflected on water.
The figure was dressed in an elegant black Court Long Dress, with her jet-black hair styled in a bun and wearing a hat with a Dark Veil hanging down. Her face was indescribably beautiful, with bright, deep gray Eyes that revealed an unconcealable sadness. Her red lips were slightly upturned, and her chin had a beautiful curve. Not only Men, but Women would also feel a sense of pity upon seeing her.
"The Black Witch"!
Clarisse, the "Black Witch"!
For a moment, Franca was stunned:
Has the "Black Witch" turned into a zombie?
No, a zombie transformation should at least appear on the Full-Length Mirror in the living room!
If it's not a zombie transformation, then who is this now, and who was that just now?
Franca tensed instantly, and the "Black Witch" on the Glass Window nodded slightly, asking in a gentle voice, "What exactly happened a few days ago that made you only return now?"
This attitude... is so kind... Franca, who was about to draw her gun and attack, was suddenly a little bewildered.
