Breathe~~
Everyone felt an enormous weight of uneasiness rapidly erode their beings.
The heaviness caused their thoughts to spiral into many directions.
This... This…
~Gulp.
The couple swallowed hard, fidgeting in the broken seats that managed to stay up and hold their weights.
Subconsciously, they held each other's hands for support.
I look at my thigh; you look at our hands.
I look at the table; you look at the Grandmaster.
Please... Can anyone tell them what is going on here?
-Silence-
....
Tick-Tock. Tick-Tock.
Somehow, that stupid clock hadn't fallen, though its screen was broken on impact with a flying object.
The distant ticking noises only made the situation worse.
It was like the sounds of death, drumming against their hearts.
Bubuum... Bubuum. BUBUUM!
Mia wet their lips, thinking of whether to speak or not.
But Dorian beat her to it.
"Tell me everything. Leave nothing out, no matter how meaningless you think it is."
"Ah!--..." The couple was taken aback before vigorously nodding like crazy.
"Yes, Grandmaster!"
They looked at one another, understanding what the Dorian meant.
"Grandmaster! Can we record this?"
Record...
Donghai's word made w]everyone's eyes lit up.
Pah!
They slapped their thighs, recalling why they were here in the first place.
Yes!
This was a case file!
So though the victims have been recovered, they still had to know and develop a detailed report on it.
Xiang Shore in particular, remembered how Old Gia had told him to save and keep the case.
The emergence of the paranormal had been so shocking that they couldn't even recall their own names.
But thanks to their earlier visit from the boss creature, Donghai, Leah, and the other 2 were quick to gather their senses.
The couple was about to go into detail on what happened in their home before they entered the mirror world, as well as how their time there was spent.
Gathering information on this mirror world was a must!
It was just that almost everyone's phone was either broken or destroyed.
~Swish!
Donghia moved towards the wall, opening his built-in safe that looked remarkably identical to the wall.
When the room was neat and tidy, one wouldn't be able to find this safe, especially after he always placed his massive couch before it.
"I knew the Grandmaster was coming. So I made preparations." Donghai said, pushing past the piles of rubble, opening the safe, and taking out a video recorder.
.
Donghia had thought this through.
He bought it because if he wanted to rent the ones in the station and state his reasons, he knew they would take him to the hospital instead.
Also, he wasn't sure if, by the end of the day, it would be fitting to give the tape to the station.
Thus, he decided to buy his own and give it to Old Gia and the rest instead.
That's right.
He assumed that if the Gia household had known this for generations and generations, then maybe they would like to keep it secret.
Well, all those were his guesses.
And in the end, he, Leah, and the other 2 got the video recorder after leaving Dorian's estate.
Everyone was impressed and grateful for Donghai's quick thinking.
The video camera had long been charged and was up and ready to go.
It was just that would the Grandmaster approve?
.
Dorian shrugged his shoulders.
What was it to him?
In the end, he was here to popularize the fact that the paranormal existed. So why stop anyone?
It wouldn't make a difference to him since his academy would soon open its doors.
And by tomorrow, he'll begin his first attempt at sending the Invitations!
Dorian gave him approval, as well as the couple.
Following that, Donghai pressed the button.
And... Click!
The red light was on.
The couple began their tale.
The more everyone heard, the more shocked and horrified they were.
Again, they were also shocked that the bastard in the mirror world would lie against them.
F***!
They made the couple believe that they, the armed forces, knew about their entry into the mirror world and refused to save them.
Hello? Today was their first day knowing this, okay?
And almost all of them here had high-level status.
What the heck?
What was even more preposterous was the voice telling them to kill one another in order for the victor to leave.
However, from the Grandmaster's words, they knew it was a lie!
The couple also grew pale, listening to what would've become of them if they turned murderous.
.
Mia gripped her husband's hands with guilt.
If they didn't come to rescue them, wouldn't she be the one pushing Endo to take her life?
If he embarked on that journey, wouldn't she be the one who caused it all?
"It's okay... I don't blame you." Endo whispered warmly. "I only blame those evil things!"
Luckily, he had a firm heart, refusing their temptations!
Think you can get him to kill his wife?
Impossible!
Love conquers all.
(*^*)
Endo was proud and felt very heroic for sticking to his belief through his tribulations.
That was what made a man a true man!
After today, Endo would go on to become more strict in sticking to the right path. He and his wife would become one of the great teachers in the academy, respected by many.
They will defeat countless entities and become great elders in the Academy.
But... that was a story for another day.
Now, the couple looked very haggard and shaken.
.
"Grandmaster, I don't understand... You said we only spent a little over a day there?"
"Yes. To you, it was 5 days and a few hours. But to us, not much time has passed since your disappearance."
Shocking.
Xiang shore and the rest stared at Donghai, as though saying: Are you getting that?
'_'
Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap.
Dorian stared at them, looking at their aura, forehead lines, eyes, lips, cheeks, chin, and other physical straights.
"Palms.
"Ah!--... Yes, Grandmaster." The duo was obedient.
"State your full name, date of birth, and place of birth."
Though he knew through personal information from the case file, since they sat beside him, it was best to double-check the information from the horse's mouth.
It can be said that their visit to the mirror world did have consequences.
