October 9, 2019 · 5 min read · 909 words

The curtains were tightly drawn, the lamps in the room were extinguished. Audrey completed the corresponding preparations according to the requirements of "Mirror Divination".

Of course, she didn't specifically choose an appropriate time period, because asking Mr. Fool didn't require such trouble.

Glancing at the candle in front of her and the mirror reflecting the flames and herself, Audrey, both interested and a little uneasy, picked up a bottle of hydrosol and sprinkled a little of the liquid onto the dim yellow flame.

A pure, elegant scent drifted into her nostrils, and Audrey inexplicably recalled the time when she was just an occult enthusiast.

At first, she also made all kinds of mistakes. At a critical point in the ritual, she would find that she had forgotten to prepare the essential oils and hydrosols to please the deity, and had to make do with perfume instead. The result was undoubtedly a failure.

Actually, according to the information revealed by Mr. Fool, even if I had replaced this hydrosol with my perfume, He would still respond to me... Audrey took a slow, gentle breath, and using "Meditation", completely calmed herself down.

She knew that the uncontrollable scattering of thoughts just now was not her normal state; her slight anticipation and nervousness had been amplified by the "Lies" necklace!

Adjusting her state, Audrey clasped her hands, pressed them in front of her lowered mouth and nose as if in prayer, and sincerely began to recite in a low voice: "The Fool that does not belong to this era; The Mysterious Ruler above the Fog; The King of Yellow and Black who wields good luck."

...

The secret incantation echoed softly. After repeating it seven times, Audrey noticed that there seemed to be an indescribable presence in the surrounding dimness, like a hidden undercurrent beneath the water.

Raising her head, Audrey extended her right hand, passed it by the completely unwavering candle flame, and stroked the mirror surface from top to bottom in the air.

At this point, the "Mirror Divination" ritual was complete. If a mysterious, unknown existence was interested in it, it would use the mirror to give a certain response.

Above the Gray Fog, in the ancient and majestic palace, Klein saw the crimson star representing Miss Justice first expand, then contract, emitting illusory light. Finally, they were all tinged with a nearly black, profound sense of secrecy, condensing into a circle of light the size of a mirror that seemed to lead to the outside world.

"Completely different from the effects of previous rituals, interesting..." Klein leaned back in his chair, extended his spirituality, and made contact with the deep black circle that seemed like an opening.

Silently, his field of vision changed abruptly. The bronze long table, the crimson stars, and the spacious room illuminated by candlelight somehow overlapped, yet the boundaries were distinct.

At this moment, Klein felt that a mirror had become an extension of his body and eyes, helping him to clearly see and interact with the real world even from above the Gray Fog.

Yes, clearly! All the things in Klein's sight were no longer hazy and blurry, but appeared clearly before his eyes!

His gaze suddenly froze for two seconds.

Before him was a young lady in a pure white dress embellished with gold lace. Her long blond hair was casually pinned up, cascading down softly and glossily. Her emerald eyes reflected the slightly pale firelight, deep as the ocean and pure as the most flawless gemstone. Her features and face shape combined into a breathtaking beauty, and her aura was elegant and innocent.

Klein averted his gaze with inexplicable guilt.

"I almost thought it was a Witch of a not low Sequence. Good thing I remembered in time that Miss Justice is a Beyonder of the "Spectator" pathway and couldn't have become a Witch... The scent of this hydrosol is really nice, very special... This subtle feeling, the mystical item made from the "Faceless" Beyonder characteristic? Miss Justice turned it into a necklace..." Klein's gaze fell upon the mystical item disguised as a diamond necklace.

Then, he heard Miss Justice speak with full anticipation: "Mirror, mirror, tell me, the whereabouts of the owner of this notebook."

Audrey knew she was consulting Mr. Fool, but the words "Mirror, mirror" had been something she wanted to say out loud ever since she heard the related stories as a child, and now she finally had the chance to put it into practice.

"The previous failures don't count, mm!" Audrey nodded to herself in her heart.

Klein immediately looked at the black notebook placed between the candle and Miss Justice, and found that his spirituality could easily extend through the mirror, "holding" the divination medium like a hand.

Above the Gray Fog, he quickly wrote down the corresponding divination statement: "The whereabouts of the original owner of this notebook."

"Holding" the notebook in one "hand" and the paper in the other, Klein muttered silently and leaned back against the chair again. With the help of "Meditation", he quickly fell into a slumber.

Audrey, her emerald eyes wide open, looked at the mirror seriously and attentively, waiting for Mr. Fool's response.

After a few seconds, she finally saw water ripples appear on the mirror's surface, spreading into circles.

It worked! The "Mirror Divination Method" really works! Audrey's eyes widened, reflecting the image that flashed in the mirror: It was an aerial view of a village!
