Chapter 290: Chapter290:Actual Use Of Origins Mirror
“They’re just right over there!”
Hearing this from Crofton, Cornelius’s expression changed, and a cold smile appeared on his lips. He glanced at the illusory map, confirmed the direction, and immediately sprinted forward, concealing his presence as he ran.
Before long, Cornelius arrived at the location where Enzo and the others were.
At that moment, Enzo was sitting on the ground, planning their next moves, while Elsie stood a little farther away, her expression conflicted.
She had already regained her original appearance
Elsie was with silver-white hair, a perfect figure, and an enigmatic aura that gave off a captivating vibe.
However, all Cornelius felt was rage.
He chose not to confront Enzo directly, instead setting his sights on Elsie. Once she had moved a bit farther away, Cornelius appeared in an instant and launched an elemental energy sphere at her.
Elsie was caught off guard and struck by the energy sphere.
She fell to the ground, her face contorted in pain, her energy sapped, clearly unable to fight back.
This, however, alerted Enzo and Patricia.
The two rushed over, helping Elsie up, and then turned their gazes toward the approaching Cornelius.
“She did not die? That was truly a stroke of luck.”
Cornelius was somewhat surprised. In his imagination, the attack just now should have been able to directly kill the woman. But Elsie was only severely injured and not killed.
However, his objective had been achieved at that moment.
Cornelius looked at Enzo with increasing anger in his eyes, but at this moment he restrained himself and did not choose to directly attack Enzo. Instead, he said, “Kid, return the Origins Mirror to me, and we can settle our feud.”
Enzo remained silent.
He cradled Elsie as he felt her life force slipping away. He was extremely angry in his heart. Although their relationship was not harmonious now, at the beginning, it was indeed Elsie who saved him, which Enzo never denied.
And now he felt responsible for her injury.
Gently placing Elsie down, Enzo stood up, and a terrifying surge of spiritual strength began to coalesce into a massive fortress that descended upon Cornelius.
“What is this?!”
Cornelius’s eyes widened as he realized Enzo’s power far exceeded his expectations.
So Cornelius turned around and fled.
However it was too late to flee at that moment. The Soul Fortress directly locked onto Cornelius and landed heavily, but did not cause much movement, not even raising any dust on the ground. As if nothing had happened, Cornelius suddenly stopped trying to escape.
Cornelius abruptly halted, terror evident in his eyes,with his mouth wide open.
Then, there seemed to be a slight sound of shattering, and Cornelius fell straight down, his soul crushed into pieces by Soul Fortress in an instant.
With no soul left, death was inevitable.
Not far away, Crofton watched the scene unfold with relief that he hadn’t followed Cornelius. Witnessing Cornelius’s death, he cursed inwardly, “Damn Cornelius, that kid is so powerful. How could we possibly match him? Thank goodness I didn’t go out with you…”
Crofton cursed in his heart while cautiously retreating.
As he continued to retreat cautiously, he suddenly felt something blocking his path. Turning around, his face went pale.

It was Enzo standing behind him.
“Shall we chat?” Enzo’s voice was icy.
Crofton had no thoughts of resistance. He nodded repeatedly, saying, “Respectful warrior, anything you want to know, I will tell you.”
Enzo asked directly, “What was Cornelius’s purpose for coming here?”
Crofton replied, “To retrieve the Origins Mirror.”
The simplicity of this answer made Enzo skeptical. “Is that all?”
Crofton nodded fervently.
He explained, “You may not know, but the Origins Mirror is no ordinary treasure. I worked with Cornelius for a time, and according to him, the Origins Mirror is a relic from the Starry Sky, possessing the ability to rewind time. However, using Origins Mirror for rewinding time requires a significant amount of resources.”
“Rewind time…”
Enzo murmured, taking out the Origins Mirror to examine it. To him, it appeared just like a regular mirror, devoid of any unusual aura.
Its only function seemed to be replaying past scenes.
At the same time , the Origins Mirror made mistake easily.
Thus, despite acquiring it, Enzo hadn’t paid much attention to the Origins Mirror or considered using it. However, Crofton’s claim about its time-rewinding ability piqued his interest.
He then asked, “How to use it?”
This time, Crofton shook his head and said, “I… I don’t know either. Cornelius didn’t mention how to use the Origins Mirror for rewinding time.”
After hearing this, Enzo didn’t press further.
Crofton felt a slight relief and asked, “Respected warrior, can I leave now?”
Enzo still didn’t answer.
But in the next moment, Crofton suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest—a green vine pierced through him, squeezing into his heart and crushing it.
He collapsed, his life force fading away.
…
Enzo returned to the group’s resting area.
Elsie leaned against the wall, and after treatment, her breath became calm and she only needed some rest to recover. However, now she looked at Enzo and said, “This time, we’re even”
Enzo nodded slightly.
At that moment, Patricia’s expression changed as she pulled out her communicator, which displayed Quinn’s image. “Captain Patricia, I’ve notified the others at the temple. But they need us to set up the corresponding teleportation array, and I need your help!”
“I’m on my way!”
Patricia replied immediately.
Then she looked at Enzo and Elsie, explaining, “The temple has the coordinates for the Fierce Beast world, but we still need to set up the teleportation array, which means the temple must have sent many people. Do you want to come with me for safety?”
“No, thank you.”
Enzo and Elsie spoke almost simultaneously, declining Patricia’s invitation.
Patricia didn’t insist and bid farewell to the two.
The Otrank Mountains had become increasingly dangerous, with threats not just from the mountains themselves but also from external forces.
However, danger also means opportunity.
The most important thing was that the Oris in Rage Temple were also active in the Otrank Mountains, and Patricia was well aware that Oris valued Enzo and Elsie. If Enzo and Elsie were really in danger, Oris would definitely lend a helping hand.
Thus, for Enzo and Elsie, the Otrank Mountains weren’t as dangerous as they seemed, which was why Patricia hadn’t urged them to leave.
After Patricia left, the resting area was left with only Enzo and Elsie. The atmosphere between them was somewhat awkward until Elsie finally extended her hand toward Enzo and said, “Help me up.”
Enzo walked over and pulled Elsie up.
Once standing, Elsie stared at Enzo for a long time before seriously saying, “I apologize for what happened before. I shouldn’t have disguised myself to get close to you. But regarding that matter—specifically, your withholding the Shadow Clan secret from me—I won’t back down.”
Enzo countered, “Is it that important?”
Elsie paused for a moment, then firmly replied, “It is. When I was young, my teacher told me I am one of the few descendants of the Shadow Clan. Long ago, the Shadow Clan was renowned in the Starry Sky. My mission is to revive the Shadow Clan.”
Hearing this, Enzo smiled slightly.
It wasn’t mockery of Elsie’s convictions, but rather praise. He said, “There aren’t many people like you left. But, Elsie, have you ever considered this? Whether in this world or in the Starry Sky, individual death, the extinction of a clan, or even the complete annihilation of a world—these are all common occurrences. You should be well aware of the current state of the Shadow Clan. With your strength alone, you can’t achieve that.”
Elsie seemed a bit deflated.
Enzo was speaking the truth. The Starry Sky was vast, and reviving the Shadow Clan was far beyond what someone like her, who wasn’t even a deity, could accomplish.
Yet, this was what she had always pursued.
It was her belief, worth any sacrifice.
In the next moment, to Enzo’s surprise, Elsie suddenly embraced him and pressed her lips against his. The soft sensation immediately enveloped Enzo, making him feel utterly relaxed, as if he had entered another world.
Wait!
This wasn’t an illusion!
Looking around the dim space filled with countless shadows like ghosts, he noticed that only he and Elsie had any actual space.
“Where is this?” Enzo asked Elsie.
“This is the Magic Shadow Space, a sacred place of the Shadow Clan.” She replied directly.
“Why did you bring me here?” Enzo questioned, confused. He could clearly tell he had physically arrived in this strange space, not just his consciousness.
Yet he had felt nothing during the transition.
It looked like he was using a small world to pull people into it, wasn’t it possible that this was also a place similar to a small world?
As Enzo pondered, he heard Elsie say, “In fact, I had my eye on you the moment you arrived in the Fierce Beast world…”
