Mirror World

As Modona fumbled with the staff in her hand, her eyes slowly shifted to the two strange women sitting beside her. She asked with doubt in her eyes, "Tang Huan, who are they?" Then, Modona's eyes fell on the ears of the boa, which were pointed and long. Only then did she realize that the two women were elves.

Tang Huan replied briefly: "He is just a stranger I met on the way."

However, the Nian Po said with a smile: "Sir, how can you treat us as strangers? I wonder if you have considered the previous proposal?" The Nian Po's tone was very respectful.

Modona looked back at Tang Huan with a confused look on her face and asked in confusion, "Sir?"

Tang Huan responded without hesitation: "I have no interest in this. You are unwilling to disclose the details, and you asked me to go to such a faraway place. How can I trust that you have no ill intentions when facing a stranger I met for the first time?" His eyes were extremely firm, and it was obvious that there was no room for negotiation.

Seeing Tang Huan's firm attitude, Nian Po knew that it was useless to continue persuading him about traveling far away, so she gave up the idea.

The Anaconda turned to look at Modona, with a hint of worry and advice in her eyes, and asked softly: "Little witch, have you already known about Tang Huan's other unknown identity?" Her eyes seemed to imply that Modona should stay away from Tang Huan.

Modona's originally indifferent face now looked even colder, and her voice was as cold as usual: "Well, of course I know. Are you the priests - followers of the [Dark Scarlet Book]? And your mission is to protect the peace of the foreign seal of the 'Borderland'. Why did you come here?"

The Anaconda smiled slightly and praised: "As expected of an astrologer! Just based on this one encounter, you can tell our true identities in one sentence."

Modona's lips curled up slightly, her tone still cold, but mixed with a little wariness, she responded: "You are also very good, you can see through my identity as an astrologer when we first met."

The Anaconda frowned slightly and said earnestly: "Then do you know that knowing his true identity and over-interfering in his growth process will lead to a change in his identity?" There was a hint of persuasion and alienation in her words.

However, Modona did not back down. Her eyes were firm and indifferent as she responded: "No matter who he is, to me, he is just a partner who fights alongside us. Providing him with assistance is my job. As for the so-called identity change or not, I don't care." Her voice was as calm as dead water, but it contained an unshakable determination.

"Identity? Are you talking about the [Spellcaster]? What does that identity mean?" Tang Huan asked puzzledly.

When Modona was about to explain the deep meaning of this identity to Tang Huan, the Anaconda suddenly interrupted: "Little witch, we are loyal believers of the priest "Dark Scarlet Scroll"! Finding the "Spellcaster" is also our unshirkable mission! However, the time is not yet ripe, and it is not appropriate for him to know this. I hope you will keep this secret for us for the sake of our gift of water resources."

Modona's eyes hesitated for a moment, but soon revealed a smile: "Okay, since you call me a witch, I won't talk about this for now." Obviously, she was quite happy to be called a witch by others.

"Eh... I really want to know. How about! I will also call you a little witch..." Tang Huan said with a look of regret and some teasing.

Hearing this, Modona's body trembled slightly, and a hint of shyness appeared on her face, but she soon regained her composure. She gently combed the hair beside her ears, smiled softly, and said softly: "It's not the right time yet. This identity will bring you endless glory and power, and it will help you reach the top of the world. So, please wait patiently for a while."

Tang Huan sighed helplessly, "Well, if that's the case, I'll just be patient." After saying that, he reached out and skillfully pulled off a fat lizard leg from the roasted lizard on the bonfire. Then, he blew two puffs of hot air on the lizard leg, as if to blow away the ashes and temperature on it. Finally, he carefully handed the lizard leg to Modona.

Modona's beautiful eyes stared at Tang Huan, with a mixture of shyness and admiration in them. She hugged her knees with both hands, curled up, and looked at Tang Huan shyly like a cute little girl. When Tang Huan handed her the lizard leg, she timidly reached out her hand and gently took the lizard leg that Tang Huan had blown to the perfect temperature.

……

In the early morning, the sun shone through the gaps in the leaves onto the ground, creating patches of light and shadow. The woman with dark hair woke up at the same time. They smiled at each other, then stood up and walked towards Tang Huan and Modona.

Coming to Tang Huan and Modona, the black-haired woman looked down at them, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes, and asked softly: "Ana, what kind of medicine did you give them? Won't it hurt the "Spellcaster"? "

The Anaconda smiled and replied confidently, "Don't worry, my medicine is absolutely non-toxic and harmless. The only effect is to make people fall into a long and sweet dream, making them feel endless joy and comfort. That's why they are completely unaware of it."

"Ah!..." Modona cried softly in her dream. Her soft and gentle voice attracted the attention of both men.

They all turned their eyes to Modona, who had her eyes closed and was mumbling something incoherent. Listening carefully, one could hear a conversation between her and Tang Huan in her dream, as if the two were acting out a romantic story between a couple or husband and wife.

In Modona's dream, she seems to become extraordinarily gentle and graceful, changing her usual strong image; while Tang Huan turns into an active and proactive character, expressing his deep affection for Modona without disguising himself. The interaction between them is full of sweetness and warmth, which makes people feel moved and have many associations.

The black-haired woman raised her lips slightly, with a playful light flashing in her eyes. She stared at Modona with a smile and whispered, "I didn't expect that this woman looks cold, arrogant and domineering, but she is so coquettish and reserved in her heart. You can't judge a person by his appearance!" After that, she shook her head gently, as if she had a new understanding of Modona.

The boa consort looked at Modona seriously, then looked at Tang Huan, only to see Tang Huan talking in his sleep, "From now on! No one dares to control my fate! My fate is decided by myself!"

Then the Anaconda said seriously, "You must protect this little girl and send her back to the human city safely. She will be very useful to us."

After giving the order, the Nian Po calmly took out a snow-white object shaped like a long rectangular column from her pocket. She tightly grasped Tang Huan's collar, as if she wanted to lift him off the ground. Then, the Nian Po began to concentrate her energy and injected the endless mirror spirit power in her body into this mysterious long rectangular column.

At that moment! A dazzling white beam of light suddenly rose into the sky, as if it was about to penetrate the top of the sky. The light was so strong that the surrounding air seemed to be torn apart, forming a powerful vortex of airflow.

The huge force enveloped Nianpo and Tang Huan, and their figures disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye, leaving only an empty space.

The dazzling white beam of light rushed away like lightning, passing through the clouds at an astonishing speed and rushing towards the endless distance. It seemed that in just a blink of an eye, it had disappeared at the end of the distant sky, leaving behind a string of amazing light trails.

At the same time, the mysterious black-haired woman hugged Modona tightly. However, her body suddenly changed miraculously - her legs turned into a slender and flexible black snake body!

Then, the black-haired woman quickly swung her snake body, like a nimble swordfish, swimming freely in the golden desert. Her movements were agile and swift, and every twist brought up a cloud of sand and dust, showing an extraordinary strength and speed.

So she took Modona to the human city.
