End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues - Chapter 191

Chapter 191: The Unexpected Appearance of The Person in the Mirror
Neither Jeremy nor Ritchie had any interest in responding to Kean’s provocative words.

Jeremy glanced at Ritchie from the corner of his eye, and Ritchie immediately understood Jeremy’s intent. Without hesitation, Ritchie slipped into the shadows, disappearing from view.

Gripping the Longsword of the Undying with both hands, Jeremy charged directly at Kean.

“It seems you truly have no idea how powerful I have become! I am not fighting you alone.”

Kean stood his ground, making no effort to dodge, confident that [the White Tower] behind him would provide the necessary support.

As Jeremy, wielding the Longsword of the Undying, reached Kean, a barrier composed of High-Dimensional Data materialized, blocking Jeremy’s advance.

Seizing the moment while Jeremy was hindered, Kean launched an attack on the close-proximity Jeremy.

However, Jeremy had anticipated such a scenario all along.

Thus, their weapons merely clashed against each other.

At that very instant, Kean suddenly felt as if his shadow was being manipulated by someone else.

Kean immediately reacted, extending his left hand. In an instant, a flame materialized in the palm of his left hand.

In the instant the flame materialized, Kean’s shadow broke free from Ritchie’s control.

“Your friend is just as sneaky as ever, always resorting to these petty tricks. Do you really think such methods can defeat me?! You are gravely mistaken!”

Kean spat these words venomously before raising his weapon and slashing fiercely at Jeremy.

At this moment, Kean wielded one of the most formidable weapons ever possessed by the Lannisters.

Though this weapon lacked an array of abilities, its strength lay in its sheer power, able to withstand and counter nearly any other weapon in direct combat.

Even Jeremy’s Longsword of the Undying struggled to gain a swift advantage against the formidable weapon Kean wielded.

Simultaneously, Jeremy sensed a violent shift occurring within the High-Dimensional Data surrounding him.

Jeremy’s heart skipped a beat as he suddenly realized that [the White Tower] might have already detached itself from Kean. The High-Dimensional Data surrounding Jeremy was likely under the control of [the White Tower].

The moment this possibility dawned on him, Jeremy pushed Kean back and advanced toward the deepest part of the instance.

Kean, of course, was not about to let Jeremy slip away.

Regaining his footing, Kean quickly pursued him.

Ritchie, still lurking in the shadows, did not act hastily. He knew that moving too fast would reveal his position to others.

Hence, Ritchie moved forward at a languid pace, cloaked in the darkness.

This strategy left Jeremy to face the combined assault of Kean and [the White Tower].

Although [the White Tower] no longer controlled Kean’s body, limiting the power it could exert, the threat remained significant.

However, [the White Tower] could still manipulate the High-Dimensional Data. The immense control exerted by the multitude of High-Dimensional Data significantly hindered Jeremy’s movements.

Jeremy began to lose ground in his battle against Kean.

Nevertheless, Jeremy didn’t perceive his situation as entirely dire.

This was because he was now very close to the trap he had meticulously set up beforehand. As long as he could lure Kean and [the White Tower] into the trap, his plan would essentially succeed.

While Jeremy fought and retreated strategically, Ritchie finally arrived at the battlefield.

Upon seeing Jeremy’s precarious situation, Ritchie unleashed his most powerful skill without hesitation.

Ritchie extended his mind, spreading his consciousness to control nearly all the shadows in their vicinity. These shadows seemed to come to life, crawling towards Kean.

Although Kean’s strength far surpassed that of any single shadow, he had to ensure his safety when faced with the onslaught of so many shadows.

“Nicely done!” Jeremy couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.

Although at the start of their operation, Jeremy had thought no one else could offer him any assistance.

But now, it was undeniable that he owed his escape from the predicament to Ritchie’s efforts.

Hearing Jeremy’s praise, Ritchie did not let it get to his head.

He knew the battle was far from over, at the very least, they needed to defeat Kean before any celebrations could be considered.

As Jeremy, Ritchie, Kean, and [the White Tower] engaged in a chaotic four-way battle, not far from the battlefield, in an empty room within the instance, a mirror suddenly materialized on the wall.

Within this mirror, numerous dark silhouettes began to appear.

The moment these shadowy figures emerged, they scrambled to climb out of the mirror.

Had Kean been present, he would have instantly recognized these emerging shadows as The Person in the Mirror, who had once provided him with assistance.

The Person in the Mirror, after emerging from stillness, did not head towards the battlefield.

They seemed disinterested in the ongoing battle involving Jeremy and the others.

Upon arriving in the instance, The Person in the Mirror moved directly towards the instance’s entrance.

By this time, Howard’s subordinates had already repaired the entrance to the instance.

Although Bonnie was initially unwilling to team up with Howard, he eventually persuaded her.

“Acting alone will inevitably lead to encounters with insurmountable dangers. Even if you look down on the capabilities of my subordinates, they can still provide you with some level of assistance.

When faced with an undefeatable enemy, do you really expect to escape successfully on your own? If we act together, we can at least scatter and flee when encountering an unbeatable foe.”

After listing numerous advantages, Howard managed to convince Bonnie to join forces with him.

Once inside the instance, Howard, Bonnie, and their group advanced rapidly.

Despite their confidence in Jeremy, they still perceived Kean as a significant threat. Therefore, they aimed to reach the battlefield as quickly as possible to assist Jeremy in defeating Kean.

Just minutes into their progress within the instance, they encountered a large number of The Person in the Mirror emerging.

The moment they encountered The Person in the Mirror, Howard immediately ordered his subordinates to launch an attack.

“Those dark silhouettes must be our enemies. Do not let your guard down. Eliminate them quickly, and then we shall continue our advance!”

Under Howard’s command, his subordinates relentlessly attacked The Person in the Mirror.

However, during their assault, they suddenly realized that these entities seemed impervious to any harm.

“General, they are immune to our weapons. What should we do next? They are closing in on us!” Howard’s foremost subordinate shouted with a hint of panic in his voice.

“Do not panic! Perhaps these shadowy figures are only immune to our damage. Keep engaging them in battle. I will reach your position as swiftly as possible.”

After saying this, Howard lowered his voice and spoke to Bonnie.

“My subordinates are encountering some trouble up ahead. I must rush to their aid immediately. You don’t need to come with me. Just ensure your own safety here.”

Bonnie nodded in agreement.

Although she believed she could be of assistance, since Howard had already spoken in such a manner, she found no need to argue further.

If she were to quarrel with Howard now, this operation would surely end in failure.

Even if Bonnie didn’t consider herself, she would definitely consider Jeremy’s well-being.

While Bonnie, Howard, and the others were facing difficulties, Jeremy finally lured Kean and [the White Tower] into the trap he had set up.

However, outwardly, Jeremy maintained an expression of despair and anger on his face.

“You need not continue to struggle. I told you before, you are no match for us.” [the White Tower] declared, feeling assured of victory upon seeing the despair on Jeremy’s face.

However, Kean remained vigilant at this moment.

Kean coldly remarked, “Since we have already won, let’s not waste any more time! Let me kill him now!”

Kean wished to execute Jeremy swiftly, believing this was the only way to prevent any unforeseen circumstances.

[The White Tower] had intended to say more, but upon hearing Kean’s words, he realized that Kean’s reasoning was quite sound.

“You are absolutely right! In that case, the two of us should join forces to severely wound him first, and then I will leave the final execution to you.” [the White Tower] quickly formulated a detailed action plan.

Just at that moment, the sound of a plate shattering suddenly echoed from the corner of the room.

Immediately thereafter, a black orb rolled to Kean’s feet.

“You probably don’t recognize this object, do you? Let me enlighten you—it’s called the Dark Core!”

Jeremy said with a smile, directing his words toward Kean.

No sooner had Jeremy finished speaking than the Dark Core ascended into the air. Instantly, it began absorbing vast amounts of High-Dimensional Data into its own structure.

[The White Tower] felt his strength rapidly waning.

He shouted in disbelief, “This is impossible! What kind of method have you used to drain all my power?!”

After yelling this, [the White Tower] urgently turned to Kean and said, “Stop standing there like an idiot! Hurry up and save me! Without me, you will be annihilated by Jeremy as well!”
