Very obediently, the couple gave their personal information.

At the same time, Dorian was busy running his hands across the lines of their palms diligently.

And everyone else focused on the scene, not wanting to miss a single thing.

"Grandmaster, what is it?"

Endo was also precipitating from anxiety.

Dorian flicked his twist, allowing one of the wooden vices to float over.

However, Dorian didn't open the box yet.

Gulp.

Everyone's interest was overly piqued now.

"Though you both got dragged into the mirror world, there are still consequences to it all."

What? Consequences?

Endo and Mia were frightened.

"Yes... Though you need not feel it unfair... In the eyes of the heavens, what you owe or what you are owed, will always come back to you."

What they owe and what is owed to them?

The more they listened, the more they felt very perplexed.

"Grandmaster, what do you mean?"

"It wasn't your fault that you both got dragged into the mirror world. So the heavens aren't faulting you for that." Dorian stated as a matter of fact.

And everyone else nodded in agreement.

"Your actions in the mirror world were also very amiable and are in the eyes of the heavens.

Your souls are like a recorder, saving every little thing you've experienced in your life. So you have nothing to fear."

Phew~

The couple collectively let out a deep sigh.

The others in the room were also relieved, though a little uncomfortable.

F***!

With their souls recording everything... they won't get punished for their younger days when they used to steal gum from their classmates, would they?

Cough. Cough

Many coughed and scratched their heads awkwardly.

At the same time, they kept feeling that the Grandmaster would soon release a deadly bomb in his words.

And sure enough, they were right!

.

"During your time in the mirror world, both of you sustained multiple injuries. And the most noticeable was the one on your ankles.

It's unfortunate that not only did the shadow hold you for too long, but it also decided to release one of its most powerful attacks on you two.

And though I've taken care of the physical aspects of the matter... The soul is another matter all on its own."

The soul? The soul?

Bubuum!

The couple held their chests anxiously.

Dorian leaned forward, narrowing his eyes at them.

"Madam..."

"Yes!" Mia responded.

"You were supposed to live to 91 years old. And sir..."

"Yes!'

"You were supposed to live till your 89th summer."

Xiang shore and everyone else had their mouths opened, listening to Dorian calculate and foresee the couple's death date.

F***!

He can do that too?

After their initial shock, everyone then looked at the couple pitifully.

They felt that the results might be too saddening.

The couple also found it hard to breathe with such news thrown at them.

They clenched their fists, trying to hold back their tears... Maybe it won't be that bad?

.

Dorian stared at Mia. "Your mortal shell Is connected to your soul... You received the most injuries... 26 years of your life is gone."

What?!!!!

26?...

Everyone quickly did the math for her.

She was 57 and was supposed to die at 91... She only had 8 more years to live!

Brutal! Too brutal!

Do you know what a life span is?

It was like having hold and somehow can over to snatch it.

Not 3, not 10... But 26 years off her lifespan!

Thinking of things, everyone secretly swore that if they ever went into the mirror world, they would never allow any damn shadow to grab or injure them without a fight.

Say no more.

They were all too petrified.

It was already difficult enough to keep their little lives as officers of the law.

But now, you're trying to take such a big piece of pie out?

Impossible!

No one would be happy with such results.

.

~Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap.

Mia lowered her head, letting her teardrops shower on her thighs.

8 years...

Her grandson was just 3.

She thought she would be able to live long enough to see her grandchild get married or even get his first job as an adult.

Sadly, she would die when he was 11.

What's more, her last child got married, and she was still waiting to hear the good news of a baby in her belly. So how can she not feel sad?

The results struck her hard, and Endo had no way of comforting her.

What will he tell her? That it was going to be alright? That she would survive past that?

He also knew it would probably be like this.

Sigh...

Maybe they should use the last few years coloring the world?

That was heaven's will!

The atmosphere had turned very sour. But Dorian wasn't done yet.

"Mr. Endo... In your case, you have 17 years off.

Endo, 61 years old.

Supposed to die at 89... He had 11 years to live.

He would die 3 years after his wife.

Endo heard this but wasn't troubled.

What bothered him was his wife's situation instead.

....

-Silence-

Be it Leah, Xiang Shore, Ryu Quinn, or anyone else, they had no words of encouragement to give.

The atmosphere was very gloomy.

However, Donghai squinted his eyes at Dorian thoughtfully.

"Grandmaster, you have a way of prolonging their lives, right?"

Ding!

In a daze, everyone, including the couple, suddenly looked at Dorian only to see a slight smile on his lips.

"Smart... I indeed have a way."

Eh?

You, he, what?

You look at me; I look at you.

The tears hanging on the corner of her eyes got sucked back in like magic.

"Husband... Endo... Endo... Did you hear that?... Hahahaha~~... He has a way!"

"I know... I know..."

Very quickly, the couple celebrated, feeling hopeful in their hearts.

'Grandson... Now, grandma and grandpa will finally be able to watch you grow.'

(:¥0¥:)

The atmosphere turned sunny in a blink of an eye.

Everyone was happy for the couple.

But Dorian only chuckled at their immediate glee.

.

"Have you all forgotten... Everything is fair in the eyes of the heavens."
