Chapter 823: Obsession

~9 min read 1,742 words

Above the dark, low hollow behind the mirror in the mirror world, one star after another sprinkled one ray of clear radiance after another.

These rays of light intersected, in the form of a beam of light, shrouding the area behind the mirror, swallowing Franca, the "Witch's" spider web spread here, and Nikila himself.

Franca and Nikila shattered at the same time, turning into countless mirror fragments. These fragments, together with the invisible spider silk that protruded, dissolved rapidly in the starlight and dissipated.

The starlight subsided quickly, and the figures of Nikila and Franca were outlined in different corners of the area behind the mirror.

Seeing that there was no obstacle to the entrance of the illusory tunnel that had escaped into the spider web, Nikila was overjoyed and pulled out a light black scroll from the hidden pocket inside his black woolen coat.

He forcibly endured the urge to cough, pressed his voice, and whispered a Hermes word:

"Wind Walk!"

The light black scroll then burned with cyan flames, and a hurricane of "woo" blew up, concentrating around Nikila, lingering around his side, forcibly pushing him, whose forehead was feverish and thoughts began to develop in the direction of boiled oatmeal, to approach one of the pitch-black tunnels at the speed of wind.

Nikila rushed into the tunnel entrance along the wind before Franca could stop him.

However, he did not feel the huge suction from other mirrors.

He returned to the spot again.

That pitch-black illusory tunnel didn't seem to be open to him!

"Mirror Labyrinth"!

After becoming a "Pain Witch," Franca's mirror magic was expanded, and one of the changes was that she could use mirrors and prior arrangements to complete scene-type illusions.

While waiting for Jenna and Anthony to make a move, in addition to weaving invisible spider webs in this area and spreading various pathogens, she also placed a mirror at the entrance of multiple tunnels respectively.

These mirrors, under the influence of Beyonder abilities, reflected each other and overlapped, forming a mirror labyrinth that was difficult for the naked eye to distinguish, hiding the real tunnel entrance and only showing their mirror images.

In other words, the target Nikila chose just now was fake, a projection of the real tunnel, so he naturally couldn't use it to leave.

Seizing this gap, Franca wove an invisible spider web again, sticking Nikila to it, winding layer by layer, either teasing him until his face was red or tickling him until he laughed out loud.

Nikila, who had experience, didn't let himself be completely entangled by the spider web, and broke free again using the "Stargazer's" ability and his own specialty.

In the time that followed, he circled with Franca under the attack and interference of "Wizard" spells such as wind blades, lightning strikes, flashes, purification, freezing, and paralysis, and tried to destroy the mirrors that built the mirror labyrinth to find the real exit.

Franca constantly changed her position, sometimes blocking with "Mirror Substitute," appearing very restrained and patient.

Her focus was on maintaining the "Witch's" spider web and constantly spreading various pathogens, and using the "Pain Witch's" "Charm" to delay time again and again.

Gradually, Nikila felt that he shouldn't resist, shouldn't hurt that unusually beautiful lady.

His breathing began to become hot, and his heart beat as if it were about to leave his chest, not knowing whether it was influenced by the pathogen or excited by the other party's every smile.

This put great pressure on Nikila's body, making him suspect that he might have a heart attack and die suddenly in the next second.

He no longer felt distressed or hesitated, and pulled out a black scroll engraved with multiple lightning bolts from the row of hidden pockets inside his black woolen coat.

This was a powerful item he bought through a "Broker."

"Storm!"

Just after finishing the incantation, Nikila coughed violently, and the scroll erupted with a dazzling silver-white light group.

This silver-white light group expanded suddenly, letting the area behind the mirror fall into the rule of the thunder forest, and the terrifying hurricane produced along with the silver-white light group pushed those electric snakes into different tunnel entrances, shattering the mirror props Franca had placed in those places.

In the sound of "crack," Franca's figure shattered, the mirror labyrinth collapsed, and the real pitch-black tunnels appeared one by one.

Nikila had no time to rejoice, relying on the help of the scroll spell, dragging his heavy sick body, and pounced on the nearest tunnel entrance.

He had scrolls that produced certain healing effects, but under the current circumstances, he didn't want to miss the opportunity to escape because of treatment.

Seeing that the tunnel entrance was close at hand, and the "Witch" who attacked him had just emerged in another corner, Nikila felt the joy that hope had finally arrived in his whole body.

Just then, he saw two figures protruding from the tunnel entrance on the side with the corner of his eye.

Those were Jenna and Anthony who had "teleported" over using the last diamond of the "Seven Stone Bracelet." They had arrived long ago and had been ambushing on the edge of the corresponding tunnel without appearing.

In the short-lived weak version of the thunder storm just now, Jenna and Anthony inevitably hit their bodies with lightning, but one relied on her own "Mirror Substitute," and one relied on the "Mirror Substitute" made for him by the two witches, successfully avoiding the most violent wave of damage.

Seizing this opportunity, Anthony's eyes stood up and dyed gold.

He exuded an aura like a giant dragon.

"Deterrence"!

Intense fear and panic suddenly emerged in Nikila's heart, and the whole person became confused, as if facing an invincible natural enemy.

Seeing the target pause and spin in place, Jenna took out a handful of black powder from the hidden pocket and threw it forward, chanting two or three Hermes words in her mouth.

This was one of the black magics of the "Witch."

—Because these black magics required materials and incantations, and were not as convenient as frost and black flames, Jenna rarely used them in battle.

Those black powders burned instantly, letting cold winds blow around.

In the cold wind, invisible figures like resentful spirits squeezed to Nikila's side, clinging to him, "covering" his mouth and nose.

With this double interference, Franca's "Witch" spider web finally finished weaving again, sticking Nikila to it once more.

Franca looked at this "Mirror Person" and showed a smile from the heart.

With a "buzz," Nikila felt his blood divide into two parts, half going down, half surging up, and his heart seemed to stop beating because of this.

Under the "Charm" again and again, in a state of serious illness and near death, he could no longer resist Franca's charm.

In a daze, Nikila saw the lady whose every detail was on his aesthetic point beckon to him and hand out a transparent triangular thorn representing kindness and domination request.

I am willing... Nikila carried such a thought, without doubting why the spider web had not restricted his actions again, stretched out his right hand, held the triangular thorn, and felt a slight stinging pain.

His thoughts fell into a stiffness like freezing, and his thoughts were slow and dull like the rusty parts of a machine.

"Cold Blade"!

After controlling Nikila, Franca looked at Jenna, signaling her to hurry up and find all the remaining mirrors on the other party and destroy them.

Then, Franca could condense ice cones and perform a frontal lobotomy on Nikila.

—Lu Mian was not here, and no one could use ritual leather to complete the "Beast Transformation" and turn Nikila into a giant dog.

Jenna nodded gently, directly cutting off the front half of Nikila's right sleeve, taking off the other party's black woolen coat, and quickly finding the remaining five mirrors, breaking them one by one.

During this process, Nikila did not make any resistance, looking at Franca with obsession and pain, coughing from time to time, coughing intermittently.

His hand was still holding the "Cold Blade," dripping wisps of blood.

Franca's left hand condensed white frost, forming a thin and long ice cone.

Suddenly, Nikila's expression distorted.

"Knowledge force-feeding from the 'Hidden Sage'? Damn, why now!" Franca was stunned for a moment, then understood the reason.

And the current Nikila was in a state of serious illness and near death, and it was highly likely that he couldn't withstand such an influence.

He was very likely to lose control on the spot!

As thoughts turned, Franca discarded the ice cone and the "Cold Blade," took out a mirror, reflected Nikila's figure, and wiped it on the glass surface with her right palm covered with evil black flames.

The skin exposed on Nikila's body had already appeared one blood-colored crack after another, and strange things were condensing and forming in the cracks.

At this time, pitch-black flames erupted from his body, burning his soul.

Jenna also started a curse with the blood dripping from Nikila's palm, and Anthony aimed at Nikila with the "Winter is Coming" revolver, ready to complete the shooting with the "Inevitable Death" effect at any time.

Not long after, the two "Witches" snatched before Nikila lost control and made him lose his life completely.

Silently, Nikila fell on the void and pitch-black ground behind the mirror, turning into a corpse.

On his face, those eyeball-like things hidden deep in the flesh cracks stopped squirming and failed to grow out.

Franca seized the time, arranged the ritual, and completed the "Magic Mirror Divination."

In her makeup mirror, Nikila's gloomy and pale figure emerged, with only a few traces of losing control.

The eyes of this ghost still remained obsessed with Franca, but added the pain and despair of being killed by the other party.

"The 'Charm' of the 'Pain Witch' is really terrifying... Don't know if the 'Little Cupid' of the 'Miser' pathway can also make the target love oneself so much that they can't extricate themselves..." Franca secretly "hissed," and asked:

"Are you Griffiths?"

"Yes, I am very happy that you know and remember my real name." The Nikila in the mirror showed a joyful smile.

"..." Franca almost couldn't speak.

She paused for a second before saying:

"Do you know what happened to your superior, Kemolo, one of the 'Ten Pillars'?"
