Chapter 240 - Prying Into The Past

"Young human, are you thinking... how can this old woman see through my thoughts?

" Nikorei looked at Mike with a smile as she spoke word by word.

"...!

"

Hearing this, Mike was even more shocked. He could not utter a single word.

How is this possible?! Can this old woman really see through my thoughts?! Is this the power of a psychic?

This incomprehensible power shocked Mike greatly.

This was no longer a simple combat ability.

The ability to see through people's hearts was not something that a game could do. In this parallel world... What exactly is this power?!

Mike's heart was in a mess.

When she looked at Mike's shocked expression, Nikorei smiled and waved her hand,

"Young human, you have completely misunderstood.

"

"What?

" Mike was slightly stunned and subconsciously asked.

"Although I'm a psychic, a psychic is not like a monster. Please don't be afraid.

"The only reason I can guess your thoughts is because I've lived for a long time.

"

'Just because… she had lived for a long time?' Mike looked at the old woman in front of him in shock.

Meanwhile, Nikorei walked to the long sofa beside the coffee table, opposite of Sabrina and Mike, and sat down. Mike sat on the single sofa, and Angelina Sabrina sat on the single sofa beside Mike.

She looked at Angelina Sabrina and said,

"I'm sorry. It's easy to become talkative when you get older.

"I think I'd better get down to business.

"

Angelina Sabrina nodded slightly.

"I'll have to trouble you then.

"

At this moment, there were two people who stood behind Angelina Sabrina. One of them was Osmond, who stared at Mike with a confident expression.

He believed that Mike would not be able to clear his name this time.

All he had to do was wait for Lady Nikorei to complete the legendary channeling ritual… And the scene of the late princess's death would be perfectly replayed!

In that time, that despicable human would definitely be unable to defend himself!

The other who stood behind the Elven Queen, next to Osmond, was the only Princess of the current elven race — Ulysses Sabrina.

Right now, her expression looked very calm, but all of this was just her acting. Ulysses Sabrina's heart was beating non-stop right now. She was even a little worried that her strong heartbeat would be heard by others.

After all, she was the mastermind behind Veronica's murder!

"It would be fine if that kid F*ck really found someone else to do this…

"But if he did it himself, then no one can guarantee that F*ck won't give me up when the evidence is conclusive!

"

Ulysses Sabrina was very nervous.

Although there were restrictions on the contract, Mike could not break it at will, or he would suffer a very serious backlash from the contract. But in the face of death, the bad nature of humans would be completely exposed.

At that time, no one could guarantee that he would not want to drag someone down with him!

Ulysses Sabrina took advantage of the fact that everyone's attention was not on her, and quietly shifted her gaze to observe Mike.

It was this one glance that made the mastermind slightly more at ease.

Now, Mike seemed to have completely come back to his senses and revealed a confident expression. That is right, even if that female thief had set him up for some unknown purpose, he still found someone else to do it.

However!

If this so-called psychic could really see the past, then he would definitely be able to clear his name!

At this time, the elven psychic, Nikorei, had already raised her hands and started casting spells. She was chanting some obscure incantations in an unknown language. This appearance gave people a strong feeling of being a 'fraud'.

However, her hands, which faced each other, began to glow slightly. This clearly told Mike that she was not bluffing. In addition to the quiet and serious attitude of everyone around, it made the psychic ritual even tenser.

Even Mike could not help but hold his breath and watch Nikorei's next move carefully.

In the next moment, the light that emitted from Nikorei's hands gradually became stronger. Then, her folded hands slowly moved to both sides.

The light on her hands did not move along with the movement of her hands. Instead, it stayed where it was.

Nikorei did not stop chanting until her hands completely left the 'ball of light'.

At this moment, Mike noticed that Nikorei's face had become a little pale, and beads of sweat oozed out of her forehead.

Obviously, this 'psychic spell' required a lot of physical strength. It was indeed much too tiring for an old person.

Nikorei did not raise her hand to wipe her sweat. Instead, after she took two deep breaths, she directly chanted another spell at the ball of light. This time, it was words that Mike understood.

"Great Time Lord Kronos.

"Now, your most loyal believer needs to borrow your strength to recall a corner of the torrent of time.

"Wuhula-ha!

"

The meaning of the last sentence became the same language as before. Mike did not know what it meant.

This, however, did not reduce Mike's surprise. Because he saw the light ball between Nikorei's hands suddenly begin to twist. The light ball was like a vortex, it spun around the center, and the light ball got bigger.

As the light ball grew bigger, the brightness of the light ball also gradually dimmed. When it expanded to almost filling the room, the ball of light had completely disappeared.

Right then, a magical scene appeared.

The ball of light that disappeared like a miniature of the past, projected into the current reception room.

And the scene in the reception room had now become Veronica's Room!

What was even more surprising was that everyone clearly saw that Veronica Sabrina in this room was not dead.

Not only that, there was a man in black that stood next to her. He whispered something in Veronica Sabrina's ear.

The man was dressed in black. His face was covered by a mask. The only thing that stood out were his eyes.

The eyes of the man in black were completely gray. He seemed to be blind. Mike was surprised to see the man's eyes. This guy was obviously not Crow!

What the hell was going on?
