Chapter 9 No one is more honest than I am.
Hearing the system's prompt, Elena's smile became richer and more flattering.
At the same time, [Portrait Painting: Shrewd Goblin] has also changed in the systematic [Cognitive World] and has become a [False Mirror].
【Mirror of Illusion】
[Age]: Young.
[Level]: 61.
[Faction]: Chaos Neutral.
[Possession]: The power to break through the delusion.
[Weakness]: Persistence, persistence, persistence......
[Synopsis]: The third painting in the corridor in the vampire castle may also be a mirror. In short, it is inconspicuous, no one will remember when it was hung in the corridor, and no one remembers when it was hung on the wall, whether it was a painting or a mirror.
Elena smiled, laughed, and continued to laugh......
Sure enough, I guessed correctly, everything is fake!
The rain of blood and the blood oozing everywhere in the castle are fake! Only you can see, smell, and perceive.
Otherwise, why would the vampire maid who just passed by not care about blood? They will obviously lose their minds in the first "Future Visible" in the first "Future Visible".
The third painting in the gallery is also fake!
The reflection of the lightning made his appearance clearly reflected on the glass of the picture, and none of the other paintings around him could reflect such a clear image!
Once one vanity is discovered, it is easy to associate it with other vanities, and in the end, it is thanks to the "sane" vampire maid who just passed by.
"For some reason, your charming smile, princess, makes me feel a little afraid."
At this moment, the "goblin" on the top of the third painting slowly disappears, and then a smooth mirror appears, and then a row of swirling eyes opens above the frame, and sharp teeth crack under the frame.
"But you are a shrewd princess, who can break not only your own falsehood, but also mine." The mirror was confused with fangs.
Elena was pleasantly surprised that the third painting finally spoke, but the "chaotic neutral" camp of the other party made her a little unsure whether to respond or not.
The fourth rule of survival in the dark world: Don't talk to the guys in the chaos camp, even if the other party is chaotic and kind. When the chaos camp takes the initiative to speak to you, be sure to answer.
This can also be understood as: the guys in the chaotic camp are all dangerous neurotics. You should avoid communicating with them as much as possible.
But since the mirror has taken the initiative to speak to itself, then according to the fourth rule, it is natural for you to respond to it.
"It's a mirror, but you have to disguise yourself as a painting, you're really a mirror that loves to lie." Elena muttered.
"No, no! My beautiful princess, Your Highness. I'm the most honest mirror in the world, and no one is more honest than I am. Mirror retorted.
"Then why are you disguising yourself as a painting?" Elena asked.
"It's a long story, but it's not that long. There was once a cute little girl holding a teddy bear who wanted to play hide and seek with me, I said that as long as I hid, no one could find me, but she just didn't believe it, so I gambled with her, and kept hiding myself, but I didn't expect that today I was found by the princess, you are really a shrewd princess. ”
Elena: (ΩДΩ)!!
"So, how long have you been hiding?"
"Five years...... Decade...... Maybe longer. I don't remember. A row of eyeballs on the mirror rolled around and replied with difficulty.
It's a mess, and it's really persistent......
But can you believe what it says?
Aunt Mary's advice number one: the third painting in the gallery is always lying.
But Aunt Mary was talking about "painting", not "mirror".
"Anyway, I can't believe you're being honest, so that's the end of our conversation, goodbye." After Elena finished speaking, she stepped on her high heels and was about to leave.
"Nope! Wait a minute! Wait a minute! Your Royal Highness the Princess! You have to trust me! Please believe me, I am the most honest mirror in the world! A row of eyes on the frame rolled anxiously and shouted loudly.
Elena stopped, her lips curled to herself.
Mirror of vanity, weakness: persistence, attachment, attachment......
Whether she is obsessed with believing its lies or obsessed with making people see its honesty is not so important to Elena.
What matters is how much useful information she can get from this mirror.
"Okay." Elena turned around helplessly, "So, let me test how honest you are." ”
A row of eyes on the frame of the mirror were all aimed at Elena, full of anticipation.
"First question: The blood in the vampire castle only appears in the wine glass, but why do I see, smell, and feel blood everywhere?"
"Because you are suffering from spiritual pollution, my beautiful princess. You are seeing what you fear most in your heart – blood, under the influence of mental pollution. But the shrewd you have already discovered this secret and are fighting your fears with all your might. Am I right, Your Highness the Princess? The mirror replied triumphantly.
Mental pollution?
Elena pretended to be calm and asked, "Then do you know why I am mentally polluted?" ”
"A powerful being." Mirror said with some fear, "Due to the threat of your powerful father, he will not dare to attack you directly, but it is clear that his determination to kill you will not change." You are in great danger, Your Highness the Princess. ”
A powerful presence?
Stepmother?
Alucardo?
Or someone else?
One after another, how hated is the old lady!
"Who is he? Why do you want to kill me? How can I survive this crisis? Elena asked in one breath.
The eyeballs on the frame of the mirror rolled: "To tell you the truth, I can't answer these questions." After all, that existence is as strong as your father. But all I can say is that your chances of surviving at his hands are almost zero. ”
Almost zero......
Then this guy who can be equal to his father's strength can't be his stepmother and Alucado.
Because in the vampire castle, there is no one who can compare to the strength of his father! Even if it all comes together, it won't work!
So...... Who the hell is this guy?!
Elena suddenly felt that she wanted to live, how hard it was!
Hopefully, the mirror is lying.
"Okay, next question." Elena was not discouraged, and thought about it carefully, "What does Alucado have to do with frogs?" ”
The mirror cracked open and smiled: "When Alucardor passed me in the morning, I discovered that his bow tie had the power of witchcraft, and that bow tie was made from the heart of a witch, and contained the power of a witch's life, enough to cause cataclysm. However, it is limited to humans. After all, the power of witches is not worth mentioning in the face of powerful vampires. ”
"In the vampire castle, there is only one human, the princess. According to etiquette, Alucardo went to greet Her Royal Highness, but after Alucado returned, I saw that the witchcraft on his bow tie was still there, which showed that Her Royal Highness the Princess must have discovered the problem a long time ago, and even knew that the witchcraft was related to frogs. Am I right, shrewd Princess Elena? ”
Elena's bloody eyes narrowed slightly.
Sorcery......
