Miss Elena points at a mirror inside the camp. It has silver carvings of some kind of ancient patterns. The glass looks as white as milk. It doesn’t show any reflection when Kent stands in front of the mirror.
Miss Elena says this mirror is an ancient artifact. It is called a true self-mirror. You just need to touch it with your spiritual energy. It will show your true self hidden inside your heart. Please do it.
Without wasting any Kent gathered some spiritual energy in his hands. Then he gently touches the mirror. Kent also wants to know what his true self looks like. He thinks it will be something cool.
At Kent’s touch, the mirror gives a shiny glow blinding everyone. Once the lights fade Kent sees money on the mirror. What the hell? Miss Elena and all three Nexus get shocked. Jade says you are truly by bro. Kent stares at the mirror like a stone.
Miss Elena says alright you can go now Kent. I am sorry about everything. Jade said alright bro come with me. I have something to tell you. Let’s go. They both go outside.
In the mirror, suddenly the image changed, from money, it became a sharp sword. Logan and Liam noticed it. Logan, I thought there was something wrong. How could someone’s true self show as money? It was a glitch. So his true self is a sword. He must be practicing a sword technique. Elena, you are wrong about him. He isn’t a Dark Alliance member.
Miss Elena says. I am very glad that he isn’t. But my instinct tells me he is the same person who killed the robber.
Liam says, if he is the same person, then he must have some reason to hide it from us. One thing is sure. He isn’t a member of the Dark Alliance.
Logan says, Jade told me he wants to make this kid an official. What do you think of Elena?
Miss Elena says He is very strong. He might be one the best of his generation. He contributed a lot to clear this ruin. He only has one problem: he acts weird from time to time. Otherwise, he is the best student I have.
Outside the tent, Jade says to Kent. You weren’t in danger, right? What happened can’t tell me, bro. Did you see the core? Who took it?
Kent says, I was following them but suddenly a dragon attacked, I hid there, I was too afraid to do anything. That’s why I couldn’t find anything. I only find some low-level spiritual tools. I came out when I felt the chamber was about to break down.
Here I will give you half of the loot as promised. Ethan was outside waiting for Kent. He gives Kent his loot back. From there Kent gives jade half. After that Kent says. Bro you know I have a little sister. She is home alone. I never leave her alone for a day. But this time it’s over one week. I have to go home. She might be very angry.
Okay, you go home. I will find you later in school. Jade replied.
Two hours later, Kent goes home. Kent was sneaking from the window to see Nima’s mood. What Kent found made him dumbfounded.
Nima was watching an anime called Tokyo Ghouls on the new TV. The anime’s opening song was playing. Nima was doing something Kent never imagined.
On TV-
Song: Oh, can you tell me?
Can you tell me?
The way that this should work?
Nima singing back: My brother should cook for me. This is how things should work. But he is missing.
Song: Just who’s inside of my heart?
Nima singing back: an ugly bear and a robber.
Nima singing and dancing turns around. Her eyes look at the window. She sees Kent is looking at her like a pig, his face stuck to the window glass.
ARRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!
Nima yelled in embarrassment. She froze for a second. Then she makes a serious face. What are you, big brother? You finally remember you have a cute little sister who is waiting for you at home. Why are you sneaking into your own house like a robber?
Come inside!!!!! She says with an angry face.
+999 so copied from Nima. (Relief)
+999 so copied from Nima. (Happy)
+999 so copied from Nima. (Love)
Meanwhile in the camp of graveyard mountains. Three Nexus are talking to each other. Logan says to Jade Monroe, you lost the Ruin core. What happened, can you tell me? How did you mess up?
Jade replied, believe me, Logan Core was in front of me when I killed the Dark Alliance team captain. I just turned my eyes for a few seconds and suddenly it disappeared. I didn’t find any other presents there. I think there must have been another Level-B cultivator from the Dark Alliance. He had some kind of artifact to hide his presence.
Liam tapping on a tea cup says, I knew you would mess up in some way. But this is beyond my imagination. A Ruin core is a precious artifact. We don’t even know what type of artifact it is. If it’s something dangerous then the dark alliance can cause a huge problem.
They continue their talk, embarrassing Jade. On the other side of the camp. The true self mirror is shining bright in a dark tent. Nobody is around. The mirror shows a white burning flame, then it starts to get cover crack marks.

CRACKING!
Note: The white flame in Kent’s heart fire. It is far more superior to the mirror. That’s why it took so long to reveal it.
The flame was so powerful the true self-mirror lost its power. It goes black. Logan, Liam, and Jade felt a disturbance but they couldn’t pinpoint the location.
One of the Watcher members came running. Sir, we have a problem. The True self mirror is broken. It became dark and there were many cracks in it.
Three of them go to the tent. They observed the mirror for a long time. Liam is an expert in spiritual tools and ancient knowledge. He says the mirror lost its spiritual powers. We find this mirror inside a ruin as a core. It was there for who knows how many thousands of years without any spiritual energy.
This must be the reason it lost spiritual power. We can recharge it with spiritual stones. But we need hundreds of thousands of stones for that. Or we can let it recover naturally, the process will be slow but cost-effective.
Logan says, right now we don’t need this mirror so much. We can’t use that many spiritual stones. We will fix it when we need it. Now the main priority is to cultivate young people.
Location change, Back to Kent’s house...
