Evelyn stumbled, tossed about by the increasingly crowded currents of the crowd.
Where did these people come from? his mind is not out of thought.
Nazareth's grip on his wrist tightened, while his figure was nowhere to be seen, drowning in the crowd.
"Earths! Can you slow down a little!" his protest in a screech was held. "Nazareth!" He tried to raise his voice. But the man did not react, still walking by gripping his wrist and dragging him further and further into the crowd.
Evelyn felt her chest getting claustrophobic. I can't breathe! thought panic. And the more he panicked, the more his chest became tight.
He tried to call his friends, but no one heard or answered.
The crowd was now squeezing him into a pinch.
His panicked gaze swept around.
This is too weird! he said in his heart. How could the crowd grow denser in just a matter of seconds?
Evelyn jerked her hand from Nazareth's grip, but it tightened every time she tried to break away.
Not Nazareth! he realized.
This is not the real world! he concluded.
He tried to channel his inner power into his palm, but failed.
Sure enough! thought. I'm trapped in the illusionary realm!
"Earth!" he tried to call Nazareth. But his voice was stuck in his throat.
He tried to breathe in as much air as possible to fill his burning lungs, but the crowd wasn't even moving right now.
Am I finally going to die out of breath in the illusionary realm? he thought it was getting riled up. His head began to flutter and throb.
Nah! he thought he was panicking. He knew it was a sign that his head chakra bones were coming out.
Mikhail Claus' words flashed through his mind.
"One of my asset's children has a Mercury Crystal Ball protective fairy. His level was already forty-six, his fourth chakra was obtained from a vampire fairy. You know, right? The vampire fairies always have sonar. It was the enemy of the head chakra bone owners."
Mercury Crystal Ball! he said in his heart.
The Mercury Crystal Ball is a communication magic device, intelligent, and versatile. Plus sonar—imprisoning and voice navigation…
The sound! Evelyn concluded.
Ultrasonic waves!
Evelyn sighed once more, trying to calm herself down and trying to concentrate.
Moments later, the ground under his feet began to tremble.
It worked! thought Evelyn.
Sure was!
The opposite of ultrasonic waves is infrasound waves.
The three-heart unification technique was the right choice to break this dimension.
Evelyn tried it again. And instantly, the ground under his feet shook and cracked.
A crack began to be created on the ground surface as the vibrations grew.
Shortly thereafter…
YOAAARRRR!
A violent explosion blared together with a blast of dust mixed with gravel beside a bright golden-colored light.
The crowd bounced and the clink disappeared. Not real!
The grip on his wrist froze. The figure leading him stopped moving.
Evelyn tried to shake her hand once more. But still not want to get off.
"Show yourself!" evelyn growled and stared intently at the back of a dark-robed person with a headscarf behind her.
There was a man's cynical rant.
The man finally looked over and grinned. "Truly the son of Morfeus Academy's best asset" he said bitterly. "Your analysis is very good." The man removed his grip from Evelyn's wrist as he turned around and crossed his hands behind her. "Unfortunately you're too late!"
Evelyn inched away from him while rubbing her burning wrist. "So, what exactly do you want from me. Mr. Governor?" he asked with squinted eyes, deliberately emphasizing his words when mentioning the Governor.
The middle-aged man pulled the corner of his lips forming a slanted smile. "Nothing," he replied in a flat mutter. "I just want you to disappear!"
Evelyn smiled back in a slant, "Do you think that by eliminating me, your son could win the championship?"
"If there is less I can eliminate others" Neiro said without the slightest burden.
"Aren't you afraid to act here?" grunts Evelyn.
"Do you think this is the City of Illusions?" Neiro snorted back.
Suddenly the entire place again shook and creaked, but this time it was not caused by the three-heart unification technique.
The buildings around Evelyn were raised with the ground level, rolling forward and hanging upside down over her head as if the whole scene was resting on a piece of paper, and now the paper was being folded.
Evelyn was flabbergasted at the sight.
The reverse scene above his head gradually descended and fell on him, but not touching him, all of them slipping through his body then disappearing without a trace.
Now the scenery around him was just an empty field that looked like an endless desert of sand. Sand fog billowed around him all over the place.
The figure of Neiro Sach has changed in giant size.
Crystal Ball! Evelyn concluded. Suddenly remembered his simulation fight with Mikhail Claus last night.
And once again, he was trapped within the crystal ball of an Emperor-level Spiritual Master of magic flow with at least sixty levels of power.
Too bad I haven't learned to break it last night, Evelyn's mind.
Neiro turned her head, brought her face closer to the crystal ball and grinned. "Your genius will kill you," his sizzle roared.
Genius? evelyn's in her head.
Now he remembered what Victoria said.
"Next is the most difficult level. Intelligence-intelligence, defeat your own intelligence with smarter questions until your intelligence can't answer."
That's her! thought Evelyn.
"My pleasure is.." Neiro muttered in a low whisper that rumbled. "Seeing geniuses go crazy until they die!"
Mercury's Crystal Ball is also famous as a magic device of intelligence, Evelyn's inner being, does not rub Neiro's ravings.
"Now I'm getting impatient to see young people who want to be crowned geniuses turn crazy" Neiro continued.
Evelyn sat cross-legged and closed her eyes, her wrists linked in front of her chest with fingers in opposite directions.
Neuro brought the crystal ball in his hand closer to his face, frowning and chuckling with a stupefied look. "Light technique?" taunted. "You think it'll work?"
Evelyn did not touch him. The power of light could not be used in the dimensional space within the crystal ball. But that doesn't mean the power of light doesn't work inside his body.
He recalled a few days ago Nazareth told him that his storage necklace was now inside his head.
"You just need to concentrate light energy into your mind to get in or put something in there like you're entering your subconscious."
Evelyn smiled faintly while Neiro was still babbling.
"Unfortunately my level hasn't passed eighty," he boasted as he rubbed his beard. "If not, I can see everything he's been through here. It would be perfect!"
Now that Evelyn had already made it into the dimensional space within her head, then mounted the horses, taking out her spiritual chakra and protective fairy while sending her mock form out a crystal ball through her mind, then sent his original self to the academy.
A moment later, Neiro was shrieking and flabbergasted.
Evelyn's mock figure floated in front of Neiro outside her crystal ball, tilted her head slightly and grinned.
Evelyn knew exactly, she couldn't fight Neiro if she had to fight. Their level difference was so far away.
Evelyn still remembers Nazareth's message.
"Many chakras, many bones, strike with all your might. Little chakra, little bones, just back off and run! What is a chakra bone, I'll explain later. In essence, if your chakras are more than the enemy, use deep strength and power techniques to attack the enemy. If it's less, don't hesitate to run."
And when Neiro burst into rage and launched her attack, Evelyn's illusory figure instantly evaporated without a trace or sign that the girl had been there.
