Chapter 464 - "Tell Me What's Going On"
Ainsley had just realised that Zev wasn’t talking to her or anything even though he was so chatty.
There’s no way he would remain silent amidst all the chaos earlier.
However, Zev truly didn’t say anything...or maybe he did, but she couldn’t hear him?
[An...illusion...the intruder set an illusion to us? Since when?]
Ainsley bit her lips while slowly kicking the Godfather out of her body. Since the intruder was gone, the illusion was also gone.
She didn’t need to switch her body control with the Godfather anymore.
[We fell into his illusion even before this Lord noticed his presence.]
The Godfather rubbed his temple, seemingly in disbelief that a type of illusion could even affect a spirit like him.
Even Cellino was also affected!
[This lord thinks that the intruder already entered your bedroom long before this Lord detected his presence. He then set up this illusion...]
The illusion didn’t seem too weird or anything. It was duplicating the same thing happening in reality.
That’s how Ainsley and the Godfather, even Cellino, also didn’t realise that they’re trapped in an illusion.
[Your real body must be still sleeping while you’re fighting the illusion.]
[But I used my special ability! How come it doesn’t affect the intruder? No matter what, shouldn’t my special ability leak out of the illusion?]
Ainsley couldn’t bother to use her cutesy language as she asked the Godfather.
This is an urgent case. They better get to the bottom of this case!
[His type of illusion is like tweaking reality, creating a layer of illusion on top of our reality. Did you see how the void ripples after the illusion is gone?]
The Godfather floated mid-air, ignoring Zev, who was still snoring, not knowing what happened.
[That ripples shows us that the intruder is hiding behind the illusion world that he creates. That’s why, when you use your ability...it stays within that illusion boundary.]
In other words, the illusion acted like the intruder’s shield. Ainsley’s special ability couldn’t pass through the shield, a.k.a the illusion world.
However, little did she know that her luck manipulation ability did break through the shield, albeit only the passive skill: luck armour and a weakened offensive skill: The Goddess of Fortune and Misfortune.
If Ainsley’s luck armour didn’t get activated in the real world, Raphael would have long snatched Ainsley’s necklace to steal the potions!
When Ainsley finished listening to the Godfather’s explanation, she couldn’t help but shudder.
[No wonder my radar can’t truly detect his presence...because what my radar touches is just the illusion world! My abilities are trapped inside the illusion world...]
[Yes. You also can’t see his luck level or name because of the illusion world as well. However, since the luck level turned into wood later on...]
The Godfather paused before continuing.
[Maybe your attack did hit the intruder, but he’s not dead. The illusion world should have weakened your ability before your attack hit the intruder.]
It was why the Godfather could still sense Raphael’s presence, albeit not that clear and accurate.
Ainsley’s radar ability was also slightly leaking out of the illusion world, which was why Raphael could feel something from the radar and knew that Ainsley was using a different special ability.
Well, as the one controlling the illusion world, he only had to watch the things happening inside while fuelling the illusion world.
It took a lot of energy to maintain a near-reality illusion world, but Raphael was a prodigy, anyway. He could do that for 5-10 minutes non-stop.
[His illusion world seems to be merging with reality, and that’s the tricky thing.] The Godfather continued his speech.
[Inside the illusion, he can even use his special abilities...]
That’s like having a body double or something. Inside the illusion and outside.
Both people can launch an attack, and the one getting the most advantage would be the one in the real world.
After all, their enemies would be busy fighting in the illusion world while their actual body wasn’t moving at all, becoming an easy prey to the near-reality illusion ability user.
What a frightening ability!
Even Ainsley had to admit that the illusion thingy was scary as fck.
[H-how do we guard against that kind of illusion next time? I-I didn’t even realise when I fell into his illusion...]
Ainsley felt like sitting on a bunch of thorns...because she didn’t even know the person’s real identity and was caught in his illusion!
That’s bad...
The illusion seemed to affect even the dead spirits. Maybe it affected one’s soul, spirit, energy, etc...until it could make such a realistic world.
[Hmmm...] the Godfather didn’t immediately answer Ainsley’s question because he’s also as clueless as her.
After all, he was someone from the old days. Many unique abilities emerged these days and he couldn’t possibly know all of it.
[Let’s just ask Zev for the time being. He’s the only one unaffected...maybe he can help us.] The Godfather decided to ask for Zev’s help.
However, the toddler spirit was still sleeping mid-air with his butt sticking out...
What a pose!
The Godfather didn’t hesitate to slap Zev’s butt and shouted in his ear.
[WAKE UP MORON!]
[Bwah!] Zev instantly woke up and jumped to his feet with his drools still dripping down his lips.
[Yesh, yesh? What’s going on?? What’s wrong?! A murder??] The poor baby looked to the left and right, only to see the Godfather and Ainsley’s solemn face.
"...."
Uh oh...
Zev’s drowsiness instantly left his body. The toddler spirit also sat in a lotus position with his back straight.
[Can any of you explain what’s going on? And why did you wake me up...] Zev carefully asked both Godfather and Ainsley.
Yeah...tell me what’s going on!
