Victor stood up from his chair and walked to Cocotte's bedside.
Looking at the elven queen sleeping peacefully, Victor said calmly:
"Aren't you curious about how Pukki came to be?"
Vega blinked, somewhat puzzled:
"What else could it be? Didn't you say that demons are attracted to each other?"
"That's certainly true."
Viktor nodded and waved slightly.
A huge mirror suddenly appeared beside him.
The mirror reflected his and Vega's figures, as well as Kokot's image lying on the bed.
At the same time, he continued:
"However, the demon will not appear unless someone deliberately attracts it."
The original Lightton appeared because Jess was deliberately provoked.
Jess's anger escalated, and he couldn't even control his rage.
And the same is true for Kokote today.
Because her laziness was deliberately provoked, the demon of sloth was brought into play.
"so……"
Viktor gazed at his reflection in the mirror.
The reflection began to distort, and Vega on his shoulder also began to bend.
The two twisted shadows quickly transformed into two swirling vortexes, gradually approaching each other and merging together.
When the chaos subsided, the head of 'Victor' in the mirror had turned into a pitch-black crow's head.
The deep, single eye gleamed with a dark light, and it bowed deeply to Victor outside the mirror.
"You called me."
The phantom in the mirror is named—Mary Dim.
Victor sized up Merry.
This mirror demon was once hidden in the mines of the Claverna territory.
I've been incredibly busy lately.
Although Victor had gone on a long trip and left the Empire, he did not miss the students' classes at the academy.
With Mary Dim taking his place and teaching among the students, everyone naturally assumed that Mary Dim was his alter ego.
There are also the 'duplicates' within the academy, all of which are created by Mary Deem's Mirror World, with remarkable effects.
At least for now, the results are very good, and the students have given it high praise.
However, the reason for calling Merry over was not for anything else.
Victor looked at it and asked in a calm tone;
"Now, I need to understand exactly what happened."
Merry gave Victor a slight bow and responded solemnly:
"As you wish."
Its shape quickly blurred, and gentle ripples appeared in front of the slightly ancient mirror, like a veil of gauze blown by the wind on the water's surface.
A light gauze curtain swept across Cocote on the bed, casting her image deep into the mirror.
Soon, the mirror began to expand, becoming larger and larger, like a giant viewing window.
Viktor gazed at the flickering image in the mirror, his eyes reflecting a kaleidoscope of colors.
He seemed captivated by the scene, gently stroking his chin with one hand, a satisfied and appreciative smile on his face:
"Hmm, I see..."
...
Lazy white clouds floated under the azure sky, and the courtyard was peaceful and serene.
Hene sat gently on a chair in the center of the courtyard, while a lazy little puppy and a brightly colored little crocodile lay on a cloud.
The white clouds transformed into wide shapes, and little Wrightton hopped and skipped about on them, a stark contrast to the drooping little dog in front of him.
Pukki yawned deeply with his mouth wide open.
"So, are you convinced now?"
Lightton's distinctive loud voice rang in its ears.
Kip, however, slightly opened his eyes and slowly began to speak:
"I never imagined that anyone in this era could call out the demon's real name."
Pukki always speaks in a lazy tone, just like its personality, revealing a unique charm in its understated manner.
When facing Pukki, Lightton was filled with rage, and it seemed as if it could erupt into fiery fury at any moment.
"Can you please stop being so lazy? I really want to give you a good beating."
"Wrightton shouted angrily."
Although they represent different emotions, Pukki and Wrightton seem particularly mismatched.
The two of them are like natural enemies.
One was furious and agitated, the other was so lazy he didn't want to say a word.
But now, it has to speak.
"You win."
Pukki raised his soft, cuddly head, looked at Heni beside him, and continued:
"According to the contract between us, the moment you learn my real name, you will have won."
"I will help you achieve your goal."
Hene sat gracefully in the chair, a smile on her face, her eyes sparkling with victory and confidence.
Unbeknownst to her, a fourth fox tail quietly grew behind her.
It swayed gently in the wind.
