Miss Linai stood with one hand in her pocket, leaning against the wall at the entrance of the alley playing with her phone.

Her appearance faintly conjured up the image of Miss Qin under the streetlight.

The superpower user shook his head, dispersing the illusion.

The witch looked up and asked, “Is it over?

I won’t ask more, rest easy.”

“Sorry to keep you waiting.” Gongsun Ce pushed up his glasses, “By the way, Miss Linai, does your Impermanence Skill copy the abilities of your opponent?”

Linai produced a sheet of white paper, waving it between her fingers.

“My True Word Talisman is about infusing the talisman paper with true words to form magic through the Impermanence Skill.

A common technique is to touch the opponent’s attack to copy their ability, and I can also create simple talisman paper effects with my own words.

After making them, I can give them to others to use, but I see that you probably don’t need them.”

“So it’s the solidification of a concept?”

“Oh, that’s a fitting description.” The witch retracted the talisman, “Lord of the Mirror Chamber has also been pacified, truly an unprovoked disaster.

Shall we set off?”

From the battle in the mirror, it was clear that the talismans could enhance weapons and allow the user to possess the opponent’s abilities to a certain extent, which was very convenient for the Impermanence Skill during adaptive combat.

Linai said these talismans could even be used by others…

The superpower user pondered for a moment, then suddenly said, “Miss Linai, can you take me and Shiyu Ling into the mirror world?”

In the world within the mirror, the Mirror Chamber Mistress huddled fearfully in the corner of the restroom.

This hidden deity truly suffered an unwarranted calamity today.

She was never a malevolent god who harmed people on purpose.

She never went as far as to draw blood, let alone cause someone to faint from fright.

At most, she would plunge someone into brief confusion as a fair exchange for joy.

How could she encounter such a terrifying current god today?

Had the Huojin God closed his eyes?

The woman with the faceless black teeth felt utterly alone.

“Wuu…” she thought to herself, “I’ll sleep a bit longer.

I’ll sleep and then come out after a few years; things will definitely be better.” She approached the restroom mirror, intending to rest in the interstice between the two worlds.

But before she could touch it, rippling waves appeared in the mirror.

A girl with a ponytail and a hoodie stepped out from the mirror, a witch from the Seven Luminaries Divine Sect!

The two people following her appeared as well!

“Ah!” The Mirror Chamber Mistress quickly retreated to the corner.

It was all over now.

The witch had broken her promise; she was here to purge the hidden deity!

“Don’t be afraid, I won’t go back on my word,” said the witch with a smile, “It’s Mr.

Gongsun here who wants to talk to you.

He’s got something to give you.”

“?”

The Mirror Chamber Mistress hid in the corner like a bullied girl, while the young man with grey hair approached and crouched down in front of her, holding a comb.

“We meet again, miss who remains nameless.

Miss Linai said you wanted items for a lady’s grooming.

However, I presume you need this more.”

A piece of pure white material appeared in his hand and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a lifelike nose.

“—Ah!”

Shiyu Ling and Linai looked at him as if he was a pervert, but the Mirror Chamber Mistress became suddenly exhilarated.

She eagerly gestured with her hands: “Make the nostrils…

wider…

and the bridge a bit higher…”

The superpower user complied.

He patiently adjusted the white nose to her satisfaction and placed it on the face of the Mirror Chamber Mistress.

Then, he fashioned white pupils, eyebrows, and ears in the same manner.

All the white organs melded smoothly into her face, as if used for treating an injury.

Five minutes later, Gongsun Ce took a mirror from Linai’s hand and handed it to the hidden deity caressing her new face: “Do they fit well?”

The Mirror Chamber Mistress stared blankly at her reflection.

Her appearance was vastly different from before.

Her teeth were still pitch black, but her face finally had the contours of features.

The white facial features stuck onto the flesh-colored face somehow added an alternative kind of horror when compared to before.

If one ignored the color and just looked at the contours, her new face could only be described as plain, leaving little impression.

“…Wuu wuu.”

Tears fell from the white corners of her eyes, and the Mirror Chamber Mistress covered her face with her hands.

The voice that came from the hidden deity bore no hint of divinity.

Anyone listening would say it was the crying of a young woman.

Tears washed her eye sockets, and after the void in her heart was filled, the chaotic thoughts in her mind suddenly became clear.

She remembered it.

She wasn’t always such a bizarre creature; she too had once been an ordinary woman.

But along with the memories that came flooding in, was the intuition that comes with being a hidden god.

Her wish had been fulfilled.

She was about to be liberated…

She hastily placed her hands on her knees and deeply bowed forward.

“Many thanks to the young master for lending a hand.”

Gongsun Ce was startled, “Suddenly going all ancient-style on me?”

The woman with a white face and black teeth heard this and covered her mouth with a smile.

This gesture lightened the oddness about her, and instead, a hint of a woman’s gentle grace could be seen.

“The young master harbors a lethal weapon yet is a rare kind-hearted person.

The Lord of God will surely protect you…”

The woman who was once the mirror chamber maidservant became translucent, looking at her semi-transparent arm without sadness but with an inexpressible satisfaction.

In the blink of an eye, she turned into specks of light and scattered, leaving behind a sincere wish in the mirror.

“I wish you a safe journey.”

Gongsun Ce pushed up his glasses and thanked the woman who was no longer present.

Miss Linai and Shiyu Ling had different expressions, looking about as puzzled as he was.

“I’ve never encountered such a situation.”

As a first-time traveler to Zero Island, it was even less likely for me to have experience.

He asked Shiyu Ling, “Miss Shiyu, what did the mirror chamber maidservant look like to you?”

“…She bore the same appearance as me.”

“I see.”

To a woman, it took on a woman’s face.

To a man, it assumed the form of a lover.

Yet no one had seen the true form of the faceless, toothy entity, not even the mirror chamber maidservant herself, who had lost sight of her true desired wish.

A hidden god transformed into a beautiful woman, receiving offerings of dressing accessories, as if craving beauty.

But, in reality, what she yearned for under the guise was just her own appearance.

This may seem contradictory, but it’s not.

It’s natural for a plain-looking woman to want to become prettier.

The superpower user did not vocalize these deductions; thinking the nameless miss must have attained enlightenment, there was no need to say any more.

Taking advantage of Miss Linai’s power, he stepped out of the mirror and returned to reality.

As he was about to leave, he noticed a piece of gray clothing revealed outside the door.

Seemingly aware of Gongsun Ce’s gaze, the gray sleeve retracted, disappearing from his view.

Shiyu Ling was the second to step out of the mirror.

“What are you up to now?”

“Nothing much,” he shrugged, “May the gods bless you.”

·

In the afternoon, at one fifty.

After some rest, Gongsun Ce headed to the train station.

He carefully pondered today’s battle, feeling as if it was a trap tailor-made for him: It avoided his strength in direct combat, utilized time-space system abilities to bind, limited his actions with hostages, and even specifically targeted Shiyu Ling’s powers.

Were it not for Miss Linai’s competence, he might have truly fallen today.

Gongsun Ce happened to encounter the mirror chamber maidservant, Shiyu Shiqi happened to meet the uncle who had seen the mirror chamber maidservant, and her ability happened to complement that of the mirror chamber maidservant.

Could the adversities of today all be attributed to mere serendipity?

Just a few coincidental “strokes of misfortune” piling up nearly led to his death at the hands of an Impermanence Law Enforcer in the Divine Communication Realm.

If, in the future, he encountered even more “coincidences”…

“It’s indeed bad luck,” he sighed.

The young man with gray hair caught sight of a slightly familiar figure, the worker Zhong Tie who had been controlled by Shiqi earlier in the morning.

“Young man!

Please tell me what’s in the mirror—”

Gongsun Ce patted the uncle’s shoulder and said earnestly, “Uncle, the mirror only shows what you wish to see.

Firmly planting your feet in reality is the proper way to find a girl!”

Zhong Tie stood there dumbfounded, while Gongsun Ce took the chance to slip away.

When the worker came back to his senses, the three had already entered the train station.

He pulled out the mirror he had bought that morning, its reflective surface particularly dazzling in the sunlight.

There was no beloved woman in the mirror, just his own scruffy bearded face reflected back.

“It’s just a mirror…”

Behind Zhong Tie, the train passed over the platform, carrying the three away from the small town, proceeding to the next stop on their journey.
