Miler, who has a system for giving up

When General Su Ran approached, I suddenly realized that the person in front of me was not the Eastern General, but a general with sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, and a majestic presence.

Seeing that I was staring intently at his face, Su Ran seemed to see through my curiosity and quickly interrupted my reverie.

"Greetings, Fairy Yue. This humble general was sent by His Highness the Divine King to protect you."

"So what is your name? I can't keep calling you Divine General."

"My name is Su Ran. You may call me whatever you like, Fairy Yue."

I raised the corners of my mouth slightly, and said with a half-smile, "General Su Ran, then I'll trouble you."

Su Ran nodded slightly, a faint blush appearing on her cheeks, like the sunset on the horizon.

At this moment, a cloud of pitch-black mist suddenly surged up from the horizon, accompanied by faint, ferocious roars, as if they came from the deepest hell.

Su Ran's expression tightened, as if facing a formidable enemy. He immediately drew his sword to protect me, standing like an indestructible mountain.

"Be careful, Fairy Yue, there may be evil spirits attacking."

The black mist spread rapidly like a tide, surrounding us in the blink of an eye, from which several hideous and terrifying demons emerged.

Su Ran brandished her sword, her movements as agile as a dragon emerging from the sea, engaging in a thrilling and fierce battle with the demons and monsters.

Han Heng and I dared not be negligent in the slightest, and hurriedly used our immortal techniques to help Su Ran.

In an instant, sword shadows flashed, like shooting stars streaking across the night sky; celestial light shone brightly, like the sun shining down, their interplay creating a breathtaking spectacle.

Just as I was momentarily distracted, a demon pounced on me like a hungry tiger.

Han Heng reacted swiftly, leaping to block me, but his arm was mercilessly clawed by the demon, leaving a gruesome wound.

My heart clenched suddenly, and the power of the immortal magic erupted like a volcanic eruption, utterly defeating the demons and monsters, who fled in disarray.

The black mist slowly dissipated like a tide, and Han Heng turned around, a slight smile playing on his lips, revealing a gentle, spring-like smile.

That smile, like a ray of warm sunshine, stirred a strange ripple in my heart.

I quickly walked to Han Heng's side, looking at his injured arm with concern. "Heng, you're injured. Let me take a look."

Han Heng waved his hand dismissively, "It's just a superficial injury, nothing serious."

But I still insisted on checking his wound, and carefully rolled up his sleeve.

Seeing that hideous wound, my heart ached as if it were being gnawed by a million ants.

I quickly cast a healing spell, and a soft light enveloped his wounds like a veil, causing them to heal at an astonishing speed.

Han Heng gazed intently at me, as if a gentle spring breeze were caressing my heart.

However, Su Ran, the Divine General standing to the side, revealed a different kind of emotion in his eyes.

"Okay, stop frowning. Look, I'm perfectly fine."

Han Heng smiled and spoke softly, his gaze falling on my furrowed brows, as if trying to soothe my worries with his gentleness.

I kept staring intently at his previously injured arm. Although the gruesome wound had been mostly healed, it still inspired fear in me.

I couldn't help but complain, "But you can't just ignore things like this!"

Han Heng smiled dismissively when he heard what I said, and gently touched my hair.

She gently comforted him, "Don't worry, I'm not that fragile. Besides, I just don't want you to get hurt, I'm afraid you'll be in pain. Can you please stop being angry?"

"Alright, this is the last time! Let's leave quickly, Brother Yu Xi and the others probably won't be able to hold out for much longer!"

My anxiety was gradually soothed by Han Heng's actions and words, like a receding tide, and I remembered our original purpose for coming here.

"Exactly, let's go."

After Han Heng finished speaking, he echoed my words while buttoning up his clothes tightly before standing up steadily.

Upon seeing this, General Su Ran hurriedly spoke up to stop him, his voice booming like a bell.

"Fairy Yue, what do you wish to do? Please speak freely, and I will do my utmost to help you resolve your troubles."

I said anxiously, "I need to help Brother Yu Xi and the others. The black mist just appeared, their situation must be critical. The only way to help them is to continue deeper into the ruins and master that power."

General Su Ran frowned. “Fairy Yue, this journey is fraught with danger. Given your special status, it would be best if I went instead, and you stayed here.”

Han Heng also chimed in, "Yes, Le Bao, what General Su Ran said makes sense. How about this, I'll go with him."

I stamped my foot. "No, I can't just sit idly by. Besides, I know for sure that only I can control the power within the ruins."

Seeing that he couldn't persuade me, General Su Ran had no choice but to say helplessly, "Alright then, I will escort you there, but you must stay close and not act rashly."

After saying that, the three of us sped off into the depths of the ruins.

Along the way, we encountered small groups of evil spirits from time to time, but we quickly dealt with them all.

When I reached the depths of the ruins, it felt as if even my breath was frozen.

His heart pounded wildly, like a runaway horse, its rhythm increasingly synchronized with the power emanating from the depths of the ruins, as if it were about to break free of the constraints in his chest.

"Master, guard your mind, you are about to take control of the Soul-Capturing Mirror!"

Just as I felt my heart was about to leap out of my throat, my little cutie's voice was like heavenly music, like a clear spring, instantly dispelling my discomfort and making me feel like I was bathed in a spring breeze.

"It really is the Soul-Capturing Mirror. It seems my intuition was right. The one outside was fake? But the aura it exudes doesn't seem abnormal at all!"

I was filled with doubt, feeling completely lost, and asked my little darling questions in my mind.

The little cutie seemed a bit hesitant, stammering as she spoke, but I didn't mind and just waited quietly for her answer.

“Master, actually that one is too, but this is the main mirror and that is the secondary mirror. When the two are combined, their power is even greater, like a tiger with wings. People have only ever seen one of them, never seen them combined, so they don’t know that the Soul-Capturing Mirror is a main mirror and a secondary mirror.”

"So you mean, I've already picked up the main lens, and now I still need to go pick up the secondary lens?"

“Master, there’s no need for that. The secondary mirror will obey the primary mirror unconditionally, like a loyal servant. So as long as you accept this one, everything will be fine!”

And so, in the meantime of chatting with the little cutie, the Soul-Capturing Mirror had automatically recognized me as its master, just like an obedient child.

All the discomfort I had just felt vanished without a trace, like smoke in the wind.

The divine general Su Ran, who stood before me like a mountain, seemed to awaken from a dream.

He turned around like a frightened fawn, not daring to raise his head, standing there with his head down like a child who had made a mistake.

Han Heng, who was standing next to me, was the last to slowly wake up, as if awakened by a mysterious force.

His eyes gleamed with a thoughtful light, as if he were recalling fragments of memories, his excitement as overwhelming as the waves of a stormy sea.

Just then, the Soul-Capturing Mirror suddenly vibrated violently, as if it were conveying some crucial information to me, like a thunderclap exploding in my ears.

I focused all my attention, remaining motionless like a statue, listening to its voice. It turned out that its secondary lens seemed to be quite angry.

My heart clenched instantly, as if gripped tightly by an invisible hand. I didn't care whether Han Heng had remembered something again, and I quickly told my companions the message that the Soul-Capturing Mirror had given me.

Upon hearing this, everyone's faces turned as heavy as lead, as if shrouded in an invisible pressure, realizing that the situation might be more serious than they had imagined.

Without the slightest hesitation, we turned around immediately like arrows released from a bow and ran wildly in the direction we came from.

Along the way, I became increasingly anxious, like an ant on a hot pan, with the scene of Yu Xi and the others being besieged by demons constantly flashing through my mind.

The horrific scene was like a sharp blade, piercing my heart deeply. I feared they might meet with some misfortune.

Finally, we are almost at our destination.

Looking into the distance, one could see that on the open ground ahead, Yu Xi and his companions were engaged in a fierce battle with a group of powerful demons.

The demons bared their fangs and brandished their claws, looking menacing, while Yu Xi and his companions appeared somewhat disheveled, clearly already embroiled in a fierce battle.

I was extremely anxious, and my pace quickened involuntarily. I wished I could fly to their side immediately and help them fight against these hateful demons.

Sure enough, as soon as I arrived at where Brother Yu Xi and the others were, a familiar aura wafted over me like a spring breeze.

This aura is exactly the same as the aura emanating from the main mirror of the Soul-Capturing Mirror that I just recognized as my master, as if they share the same origin.

I couldn't help but feel a surge of joy, because this meant that my connection with the Soul-Capturing Mirror had become even stronger.

Just as I was immersed in this wonderful feeling, the secondary mirror of the Soul-Capturing Mirror seemed to sense my presence and quickly flew in front of me.

It circled twice in the air, seemingly scrutinizing me, before unhesitatingly disappearing into the back of my hand, just like the main mirror of the Soul-Capturing Mirror.

The whole process was so fast that I barely had time to react.

However, when I looked closely, I was surprised to find a beautiful and unique pattern on the back of my hand.

This pattern is like a finely crafted work of art, with smooth and natural lines and dazzling colors, giving people a mysterious and charming feeling.

The mysterious man had already left quietly before we returned, as if his purpose this time was not to kill me.

The moment the secondary mirror of the Soul-Capturing Mirror also recognized me as its master, the demonic beasts that had been surrounding us seemed to be suddenly stunned by a powerful force.

Their eyes were filled with fear and panic, and then they turned and ran away in unison, like a group of frightened rabbits.

As I watched the reactions of these monsters, a sudden realization dawned on me.

It turns out that those monsters that charged at us recklessly before weren't truly brave or crazy, but were controlled by the secondary mirror of the Soul-Capturing Mirror!

This mysterious mirror possesses such powerful abilities that it can control these ferocious beasts, causing them to lose their sense of self and become its puppets.

I couldn't help but feel more curious and awe towards this secondary mirror of the Soul-Capturing Mirror.

What kind of treasure is it exactly?

Why does it possess such a miraculous ability?

And how should I wield its power?

Just as I was absent-minded and lost in thought, a familiar figure appeared silently beside me like a ghost. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Long Jinyuan and Brother Yu Xi!

Long Jinyuan looked worried, her brows furrowed, as if she were shrouded in an invisible pressure.

Her voice was low and dejected: "Lele, I'm so sorry, that Soul-Capturing Mirror just vanished without a trace. The box is still here, could it be fake? Maybe we went to the wrong place, or maybe the final address is fake at all..."

I was startled, but then a smile appeared on my lips. I rolled up my sleeves to reveal the pattern on the back of my hand. "Jin Yuan, Brother Yu Xi, the Soul-Capturing Mirror isn't lost. It has recognized me as its master."

Long Jinyuan and Brother Yu Xi were taken aback at first, then their eyes were filled with surprise.

Brother Yu Xi patted my shoulder and said, "Lele, you really are someone with great opportunities."

At this moment, General Su Ran stepped forward and bowed slightly to me, saying, "It is truly a fortunate thing that Fairy Yue has gained the approval of the Soul-Capturing Mirror."

Han Heng also looked at me with a smile, his eyes full of pride.

I felt both excited and a little nervous as I listened to everyone's gaze.

"This Soul-Capturing Mirror is extremely powerful, and many people will surely covet it in the future. Lele, never use it unless absolutely necessary."

Brother Yu Xi looked at me with a solemn expression and earnestly instructed, "The power of this mirror is far too great. If it falls into the hands of someone with ill intentions, it could cause a huge uproar. Therefore, for your safety, you must keep it safe and never let it fall into the hands of others."

I nodded repeatedly after hearing what Brother Yu Xi said, indicating that I would definitely follow his advice.

I am well aware of the importance and danger of this Soul-Capturing Mirror, so I dare not be careless.

Brother Yu Xi then turned to look at everyone and earnestly said, "Please help me keep this a secret and don't let the matter of the Soul-Capturing Mirror leak out. After all, with so many people talking, the consequences would be unimaginable if the news got out."

Everyone nodded, indicating that they would keep their mouths shut.

They all understood that Brother Yu Xi's concerns were not unfounded. Once the secret of the Soul-Capturing Mirror was revealed, not only would I be in danger, but they themselves would likely be in grave danger as well.

I took a deep breath and silently vowed to properly control the power of the Soul-Capturing Mirror, to live up to everyone's expectations, and to protect those around me and this land.

Then, filled with the joy of victory, we embarked on our journey home, while the hardships of the future awaited us in the shadows.

On the way back, I suddenly remembered that deep within the ruins, Han Heng seemed to have regained some of his memories.

Because he was in a hurry to rush back to rescue Brother Yu Xi and the others, he didn't have time to ask Han Heng.
