After these words were spoken, not only Charles and Xiaoyou stood there dumbfounded, but the fortune teller was also stiff all over.

She was facing Ye Xi, and even without saying anything, her eyes told her that this was not a joke.

"Is it just for friends?"

"No, no, what I just said was just to express that the future safety of the Rhine Country has nothing to do with me."

"After all, I've gone through so much trouble to get here. How could I possibly return disappointed?"

"Yeah! I think so too," Charles agreed.

On the one hand, Ye Xi had promised Xiao You that she would travel with him and try to resolve those inexplicable memories.

On the other hand, Ye Xi's journey has not been easy, and it is impossible to get away with it just because of a few simple words.

Seeing Ye Xi folding his hands and acting so confidently, Xia Er followed the current events closely.

He accidentally made the fortune teller laugh.

"Haha~ You're such an interesting little Asian."

"Time is running out, so I won't keep you in suspense."

"I foresee the future of the Rhine Kingdom. It is not just a disaster, but the revival of a powerful force."

"I don't know what to call these powers... but they are dangerous and cannot be eliminated."

The atmosphere seemed to become much more cheerful, and then the three figures behind the fortune teller disappeared.

For a moment, Ye Xi saw the fortune teller suddenly flash, but the next second, she flashed again, and this time even Xia Er and Xiao You saw it.

"So? What's your last wish?"

"Once infected by that black mist, does that mean certain death?"

Ye Xi currently only understood that the creatures affected by the black fog simply had their temperaments changed drastically, but the fortune teller in front of him might be too old and his body could not bear such a thing.

"I don't have a last wish, but I hope that my love suicide can earn the Demara family's forgiveness."

"Finally, take the credit for completing the commission and go claim your reward. It's a small token of my appreciation, so please accept it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Xi suddenly felt the entire space shaking violently.

Then cracks appeared in the floor, objects fell, and the entire space began to disintegrate and collapse until - shattered...

"Power can ultimately be controlled. Only beings of higher power can control this unknown power."

The violent shaking made them lose their balance and sway, and finally the floor, the surrounding walls and the ceiling exploded into pieces.

"Ahhhh!!!"

Just like that, the fortune teller finished his last words, and Ye Xi and the others fell into the bottomless space, and everything in front of them turned to dust...

As his vision turned, Ye Xi slowly began to regain consciousness.

This time she felt the familiar smell, the pungent smell of sawdust, and they returned to reality.

It was as if everything that happened before was just a dream.

He became completely confused and fell to the ground in a mess.

"Uh... This feeling is unprecedented, but fortunately it's not so confusing now."

Ye Xi supported his head and slowly got up from the ground, his vision gradually becoming clear again.

When she came to her senses again, she found herself back in reality, still in the familiar house, but it was already dusk.

Their positions did not change, but the atmosphere was a little hazy due to the weather.

"Ah... Great gods, I am still young. I must not die from the evil magic of ghostly tricks."

Charles gradually woke up. Because of the stimulation just now, she was still muttering strange words subconsciously.

Xiaoyou was lying on the ground with her four legs up in the air, and she turned over the next second.

"Huh...what just happened? I saw the whole room shatter?!"

"That hole is so deep and bottomless, did we just fall right down?"

"If that were the case, we would have ascended to heaven by now."

Ciel could still vividly remember everything he saw just a second before he lost consciousness.

But then I thought, if I had really fallen down, I would be a corpse now.

"We've probably returned to reality. It seems the fortune teller's life has come to an end, and they had to send us back."

"But...the fortune teller mentioned her remains. Could it be..."

Charles's expression turned into horror, but that was the truth. The first thing that came to his mind when he heard that sentence was that his life was over.

"Yes, but she didn't tell us where the body is, but if I'm not mistaken, it should be not far from the house."

"And this is roughly her home."

"No, we just got out of danger. We should calm down and think and sort out the information first."

Ye Xi's face turned gloomy, and she slowly walked to the corner of the wall and started to think.

Charles and Xiaoyou also knew that it was best not to disturb her now, so they turned around and faced the house to look around again.

"Let her think about it first. Xiaoyou, just stay here with me and watch."

"Okay, Sister Ciel!"

Charles took Xiaoyou for a stroll nearby, stretching his muscles and refreshing his spirits.

The whole house was empty, except for the living room where they were staying, where there were tables and cabinets.

Charles was slightly distracted and stared at one place, and through his rich imagination he saw the warm life of the fortune teller.

She might be the grandmother of a little girl, living in this house, occasionally taking her to the city for fun and teaching her some magic.

Just as Charles was in a daze as usual, Xiaoyou, who was curious about everything, found a painting and a key on the table.

"Sister Ciel, there's something here!"

"Huh? I'm here."

Charles came to his senses in an instant and found a painting in front of Xiaoyou. Charles felt that the painting looked familiar. This was the painting that sucked them in.

Charles was startled and immediately picked up Xiaoyou and moved away from this strange painting.

"What happen to you guys?"

At this time, Ye Xi came over.

"Yexi! Watch out for that!"

Ye Xi looked at Charles' nervous expression with a puzzled look, then looked in the direction Charles was pointing.

"This is!"

When Ye Xi saw the painting, she kicked the table over the next second to prevent the previous tragedy from happening again.

But at the same time, the keys on the table were also shaken away. Ye Xi reached out to catch them, but the painting was pressed under the table.

"Wait, the painting should have lost its suction power."

"Never mind. It's just an instinctive reaction after all. It's okay to be a little more cautious."

Only when the painting disappeared from his sight did Charles dare to walk over with Xiaoyou in his arms.

"Ye Xi, are you refreshed now?"

"Well, I happened to hear your voices and thought something had happened again."

Ye Xi suddenly remembered the key she had just caught, and she subconsciously picked it up and took a look.

"Is this a key?"

"Yes, but I don't know which door it is suitable for."

Ye Xi suddenly remembered that she had not looked at the second floor yet. When she was sucked into the painting, she came to the second floor to take a look and found that there was a door that was closed.

Now that you have it in your hands, why not try it?
