"Looks like it's time to take our leave. This magic book is here for you. We'll need to stay here for a few more days, and the next time we meet, it's time for you to return it. Klaus was the first to stand.

"I still have this bit of credit." Tang Bai patted the cover of the magic book.

From Klaus's tone, there was a faint hint that they were about to leave here, which made Tang Bai's mood brighter. What did he spend so much energy for? Isn't it just to let the ancestral families leave?

Of course, there is a big loophole in the plan.

That is, Tang Bai did not know when Michaelson, as the father of the first ancestor, chased New Orleans. He could only be sure that the time was roughly in this time period in which he was.

The reason why Klaus and Elijah were able to force them to leave was not because of how much Klaus and Elijah trusted Tang Bai, but because of their own fear of their father that had accumulated over thousands of years. It was a real fear that a name alone could make them feel uncomfortable and fearful.

So at the beginning, Elijah and Klaus will definitely spend their energy to find out the truth, if they can't confirm the news, Klaus and they may still flee out of fear in their hearts, but it is certain that Klaus, who is skeptical, will not flee too far. They would move to nearby cities and then keep a close eye on the situation in New Orleans.

The Ancestral Families have been based in New Orleans for nearly two hundred years, and they have single-handedly helped create and expand the town. Here, he created a Joint Management Council of Occult Creatures to coordinate and balance the conflicts between the vampires, werewolves, witches, and humans who inhabit the area. Here, Klaus has absolute influence and the right to speak.

This influence and discourse power may be weakened somewhat with his departure, but it will never collapse and disappear immediately. It would take a long time to completely erase the influence and imprint left by Klaus and the Ancestral Family in the city.

This influence and voice ensured that even if Klaus was absent for a while, his subordinates in New Orleans would do things for him according to his heart and act as his eyes and ears.

And if New Orleans is still calm and Michelson hasn't set foot in a long time, then Klaus and his family may be tempted to make a comeback. After all, New Orleans was the most comfortable home they'd been running in hundreds of years, and they didn't want to give it up unless they had to.

So Tang Bai had to be prepared in case Michelson was late, and Klaus, who became more suspicious in his heart, rebounded together.

"Then take your leave." Elijah also stood up with Klaus, and after saying goodbye to Don Bai, he greeted his sister Rebecca, who was still standing in front of the gorgeous mirror in the corner. It's just that his call was not answered as it should be.

Rebecca in front of the mirror stood as if she hadn't heard her brother Elijah's call, and didn't even move her head.

"Rebecca? We should have left. Elijah's eyes fell on Rebecca, who looked as if she were deaf, with a look of astonishment.

"You've been in front of that mirror since before you came in, and now that we're leaving, how long are you going to stand in front of that mirror? Looking at your flowers and moons? Let's go home and see my sister. Our good story of more than 100 years may have come to an end. Klaus turned on the superspeed and flashed in the direction where Rebecca was. A hand on Rebecca's shoulder, as she pressed the corner of her lips to her ear and whispered.

It's just that when Klaus's eyes casually swept to the mirror that Rebecca was paying attention to, the smile on his face, which seemed to care about nothing, suddenly froze, and the smile outlined at the corners of his mouth disappeared.

In that gorgeous mirror, much taller than he was, he saw himself, and he saw his sister. But he also saw people who weren't in front of the mirror.

Finn, Elijah, Rebecca, Cole, his mother Esther, and even his youngest brother Henrik, who was killed by werewolves, and Tatia, his favorite when he was a human with Elijah? Petrova also appeared in the mirror with a smile. And Tatya Petrova stood beside him in the mirror, smiling sweetly at him.

In the mirror, they sit at a table to eat and communicate together, and the atmosphere of joy is intoxicating. Klaus, who was standing in front of that mirror, even felt in a trance that as long as he stood in front of this mirror, everything he dreamed of would be obtained.

Strength, loyalty, family, and love!

"Klaus? What's wrong with you guys? Sensing that Klaus had also become silent and frozen in front of the mirror, Elijah couldn't help but get nervous, and he glanced sideways at Tang Bai with questions in his eyes.

"Don't worry, that mirror is a little special, but it's not dangerous to people." Tang Bai calmed Elijah, whose body was tense.

Elijah glanced at Tang Bai suspiciously, walked to the mirror, but vigilantly controlled himself not to look at the mirror of the mirror, grabbed his brother Klaus and sister Rebecca one by one, and forcefully pulled them away from the mirror, keeping them away from the mirror.

"Wait a minute!" Rebecca screamed, struggling to get back to the mirror.

"Calm down, Rebecca! No matter what you see, now what you need is calm! Elijah grabbed Rebecca's arm tightly and forcefully led her away from the mirror once more.

"I saw Mom and Henrik and you, and we lived together like we did thousands of years ago." Rebecca clasped Elijah's right arm with both hands, her eyes glancing in the direction of the mirror, and she said to Elijah in a somewhat lost voice.

"Henrik and Mom are dead, they've been dead for over a thousand years. All you see is an illusion, Rebecca! Elijah's heart shuddered, but his usual sanity and self-control immediately brought him back to his composure, and he emphasized to the lost Rebecca in an almost cold tone.

"I really saw them! They're still talking to me. Rebecca's tone was a bit girlish. She obviously came to her senses, and knew that what she had just seen was illusory, but that immersive sense of reality still made Rebecca a little addicted and unwilling to wake up.

"What kind of mirror is that?" Elijah looked back at Tang Bai's gaze with an inexplicable anger in his eyes.

"It has inscriptions. That's its name. Tang Bai stretched out his finger and pointed to the top of the frame, the series of delicate and beautiful rune inscriptions.

Following Tang Bai's fingertips, Elijah's gaze fell on the inscription on the frame.
