Chapter 530: 528
"After all, whether it’s you or Guo Shengye, both of you have killed more than one person, haven’t you..."
"I certainly don’t want to release a Ferocious Beast that has tasted blood back into the wild, so I cannot agree to your terms."
In the Sanctuary, every Monster, every prison guard, has harmed more than one human life.
If Wen Wen were to let them go just because Mirror Nightmare ceded, wouldn’t that be unfair to the other Monsters?
A hint of chill flashed in Mirror Nightmare’s eyes as she said, "Then what would you want?"
Wen Wen took a step forward, "The two of you must completely accept my supervision, living in the place I’ve arranged for you, this way you can be together, and I can also help Guo Shengye’s comic career get back on the right track."
If Mirror Nightmare agreed, Wen Wen would then confine Mirror Nightmare in the Sanctuary, turning Guo Shengye into a prison guard.
Mirror Nightmare could not leave the cell, but Wen Wen could grant Guo Shengye some freedom, and also help publish his normal comics...
After all, this would also count as generating revenue for the Sanctuary...
Mirror Nightmare yelled in anger, "Are you joking, or do you think I’m easy to bully?"
She hadn’t expected that even after she had ceded, Wen Wen still didn’t want to let her go.
To accept his supervision, it sounds good, but no one knows what one would encounter after complete submission.
Thus, Mirror Nightmare steeled her heart, prepared to clash with Wen Wen. With a shriek, all the mirrors in the room instantly shattered into pieces. Under Mirror Nightmare’s control, they flew towards Wen Wen like numerous darts.
These Sharp shards were so potent that they could leave a person merely a skeleton in an instant, but a dark purple Energy shield materialized around Wen Wen, blocking all the shattered pieces.
Wen Wen walked forward step by step, pushing a hand forward, his black hair entrapping Mirror Nightmare against the wall, immobilizing her.
"Your Strength, your oddity, it all rests upon your Mystery."
"Once you cease to be mysterious in my eyes, you’re merely just another monster," Wen Wen declared, "and a monster of your level... has no right to dictate terms with me!"
The greatest trouble Mirror Nightmare presented was just making it difficult for Wen Wen to locate her; once Wen Wen found her, to him, she was nothing more than a minor nuisance.
In fact, for Wen Wen now, any monster below the Disaster Upper Order no longer posed a threat.
The combination of various abilities allowed Wen Wen to face any adversary with ease, far more complex than a mere sum of additions.
"You will regret this!"
Mirror Nightmare glared spitefully, then her entire body shattered, turning into fragments on the floor.
The Mirror Nightmare who came out to negotiate with Wen Wen was merely a Puppet made of mirror shards.
However, this was within Wen Wen’s expectations, he somewhat knew where the real body of Mirror Nightmare was.
Having wandered this labyrinth for so long, Wen Wen had roughly figured out some patterns.
Since it was a giant Magic Cube, its functioning was naturally similar to a cube’s, no matter how these blocks turned, the outer blocks always remained outside, the middle always in the middle, and the core forever at the core.
Aside from the corner pieces, each block has six sides, four of which lead to the same layer, one to an outer layer and one to an inner layer.
The block he first entered was definitely on the outer layer, he left a spatial mark on each block he passed to identify directions; as long as he passed through enough rooms, he could find the way to the inner layers.
Although Mirror Nightmare kept shifting the positions of the blocks, as long as Wen Wen kept moving towards the inner layers, he would definitely find the center of the Magic Cube, where Mirror Nightmare and Guo Shengye were likely hiding.
After negotiating with Mirror Nightmare, Wen Wen picked up his pace. During this time, Mirror Nightmare made several positional shifts, sending the Mirror Image Guards to deal with Wen Wen.
But since the Mirror Image Guards simply couldn’t traverse the blocks like Wen Wen, they were easily shaken off by him, and Wen Wen even captured two different Mirror Image Guards in the process.
Wen Wen advanced while calculating and entered the Sanctuary just as he felt he was nearing the core.
He needed to make some preparations before entering the core.
After all, the Mirror Nightmare was a native species of the Mirror World. Although Wen Wen was confident he could crush her with brute force, it was still better to be well-prepared.
First, Wen Wen checked on the state of the Mirror Image Guards, and to his surprise, they were not locked in cells but housed in the storage of the Sanctuary.
It seemed they lacked self-awareness and were merely tools for eliminating foreign species in the Mirror World.
It was uncertain if these creatures could be of any use against the Mirror Nightmare.
If they proved useless, Wen Wen might have captured them for nothing. The room in the Sanctuary that held them was made entirely of mirrors, and they still seemed listless, their strength greatly diminished.
If he were to release them onto the Federation’s streets, they might drop dead after just a few steps.
Then there was Jidro, who had tagged along with Wen Wen in the Mirror World, and Wen Wen was curious about any changes in him, especially since he claimed the Mirror World was his opportunity.
After returning to the Sanctuary, the Magic Mirror returned to its original size, it seemed that the ability to change size at will was only possible in that world.
Jidro looked much revitalized inside the mirror, his complexion rosy and glowing as if he had taken a potent revitalizing tonic.
Upon seeing Wen Wen, he bowed deeply and said, "Great master, after you capture the Mirror Nightmare, could you please hand her over to me?"
"Hand her over for what? Are you fond of her? She likes Guo Shengye," Wen Wen said irritably. He was fed up with everyone essentially feeding him unwanted affection.
Jidro hesitated for a moment and then said, "You misunderstand, I don’t mean that... What I meant to say is that I can devour her Strength to complete my Evolution, better serving you."
"You can devour her Strength?"
Wen Wen looked at Jidro in surprise, not expecting him to be capable of that.
"Yes, great master,"
"After your battles in the Mirror World, I realized that there is no essential difference between the Mirror Nightmare and us, the Mirror Demons."
"Her unique ability is actually to only harm the Soul through that silver phantom. After you destroyed that phantom, most of her ability was also destroyed."
"As for opening portals to the Mirror World and controlling mirrors, if my Strength becomes as great as hers, I could do it too!"
After saying this, Jidro looked at Wen Wen hopefully, wishing for his approval.
Upon seeing the Mirror Nightmare, Jidro understood why she could do things other Mirror Demons couldn’t.
It was because, as a Mirror Demon, her Strength was immensely powerful.
Like how Jidro could use his own Strength to flip book pages or make small mirrors float, the Mirror Nightmare could use the same type of strength, but in a vastly different quantity, to do some truly terrifying things.
Although the Mirror Nightmare’s Strength was vast, it was quite mixed, and it appeared only a small part truly belonged to her.
This reminded Jidro of the large-scale attack on Mirror Demons that happened centuries ago in the Inner World.
Perhaps the Mirror Nightmare had plundered the abilities of numerous Mirror Demons during that incident, which had allowed her to gain her current power.
If the Mirror Nightmare could plunder from other Mirror Demons, why couldn’t Jidro plunder from her?
As a Mirror Demon in a Magic Mirror, Jidro’s base was definitely much stronger than the Mirror Nightmare’s!
Moreover, Jidro not only craved her Strength but also her... in any case, he was quite despicable.
