Who... what exactly are you?"
Gu Yi's face was extremely solemn, because no one knew better than her what terrible things would happen in the future if the timeline deviated!
"Roar ah ah ah——"
The semi-virtualized Lord let out another meaningless roar, and just as he was about to launch an attack on Gu Yi, a hand suddenly clasped the edge of the white bone mask.
Crack!
The hand was tearing at the white bone mask, and the monster let out a shrill scream, waving the Zanpakuto around wildly, as if trying to prevent the mask from being peeled off.
"This is?"
Gu Yi frowned slightly, but did not choose to take the opportunity to attack, but watched quietly from the side.
Crack... crack...
As more and more white bone masks were peeled off, Gu Yi saw the face covered under the strange mask.
"It's actually a human?"
Gu Yi looked surprised, she really didn't expect that the monster was actually a human!
"Ahhh... Get... Get out of here!!!"
Lord's will finally gained the upper hand, completely suppressing the negative emotions left by Setoorn, bursting out with a hysterical roar, and desperately tearing off the bone mask covering his face!
Crack!
With a crisp sound, the white bone mask was completely peeled off!
"Phew... finally back..."
Lord exhaled a breath of stale air, and after opening his eyes, the expression on his face suddenly froze.
A bald woman in a yellow robe was quietly looking at him, seeming very interested in him.
Gu... Gu Yi?!
Lord: ┌(.Д.)┐!!!
Compared to Lord's appearance, Gu Yi seemed much calmer, saying in a tone as if asking if you had eaten at night: "Good evening, young man."
Lord took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, he absolutely couldn't panic now!
Run?
Don't even think about it, this is the mirror space personally opened by Gu Yi. Not to mention him, even Setoorn's projection wouldn't be able to break it!
He can only admit defeat!
From the current results, this is the best choice!
Lord pushed up his broken glasses, stabilized his emotions, and said, "I didn't expect to see you in this situation, I'm very sorry for letting you see that ugly appearance just now."
"It's okay~"
Gu Yi looked quite easy-going, and smiled gently: "Young man, aren't you going to introduce yourself?"
Lord bowed very gentlemanly and said, "Supreme Mage can call me Ugramm Haschwalth."
"Haschwalth?"
Gu Yi smiled, as if saying 'Do you think I believe you?': "Are you unwilling to reveal your real name because you are afraid that I will pursue your 'past'?"
The other soul hidden under this Gigai, two completely different faces, were as clear as lines on a palm in Gu Yi's eyes, so naturally she wouldn't believe Lord's nonsense.
Lord knew this in his heart, but smiled without saying a word, everything was self-evident.
"Forget it..."
Gu Yi waved her hand and said lightly: "Since you don't want to say it, I won't force you to."
"Thank you for your consideration, Mage."
Lord's words were sincere.
"However..."
Gu Yi paused, and then said: "As an exchange condition, you have to answer a few questions for me."
"Please speak, I will do my best to answer the Mage's questions." Being under someone else's roof, he had no choice but to bow his head. Considering the reputation of the Supreme Mage, Lord could only agree.
"Did you expel Setoorn?"
"Yes, at a price."
"Hehe... I can see that. Then the second question, that state of yours just now..."
"I was plotted against by Setoorn..."
"As far as I know, there doesn't seem to be any black magic that can turn people into monsters, right?"
"Setoorn's new research."
"Oh... Do you think I believe you?"
"I guess the Mage must believe it."
"Hahaha..."
"Hahahaha..."
An old fox and a young fox looked at each other and smiled.
Lord carefully considered his words, trying not to arouse Gu Yi's suspicion, and placed all the blame on Setoorn.
Anyway, this guy can't come back, so might as well let him take the blame!
"I understand."
Gu Yi nodded thoughtfully, and then said: "Then Haschwalth, I have one last question for you."
"Please speak, Mage."
Lord's face became slightly solemn, I'm afraid this last question is what Gu Yi really wants to ask him.
Gu Yi's eyes were as sharp as knives, and the aura around her body suddenly changed.
At this moment, Gu Yi is the real Supreme Mage!
From the transcendent and detached hermit before, she instantly became a cold and ruthless guardian!
"Who... exactly are you?"
Gu Yi's voice was not loud, but it faintly exuded a sense of oppression, "Why can't the River of Time observe your past?"
Oh no!
Lord's face changed slightly, and his mind frantically searched for answers!
This question is more serious.
Because with the Eye of Agamotto in hand, the Supreme Mage can observe the past, present, and future timelines of all parallel universes.
In the Avengers: Endgame, Doctor Strange used this ability to observe fourteen million futures, and found the only one where he could defeat the Great Purple Sweet Potato!
Gu Yi usually uses the Eye of Agamotto to observe the future and prevent major disasters in time. But Lord happens to be outside the 'observation' range, like a 'BUG' in the world, not existing in any timeline!
This is very outrageous!
That's why Gu Yi asked this question.
Seeing Lord fall silent, Gu Yi gently took a step forward, and the sense of oppression became even stronger.
"What?" Gu Yi said lightly: "Is this question difficult to answer?"
The question itself is not difficult to answer.
The real difficulty is... what answer does Gu Yi want?
The River of Time cannot observe his past, which should be due to the dual reasons of the system and the transmigrator in his body.
But he can't tell Gu Yi the truth!
He can only take a risk and try!
Lord took a deep breath and said, "I... am a human."
"Hmm?"
Gu Yi raised her eyebrows, the coldness in her eyes gradually increased, "You're not answering the question, what I want to know is not this."
"The Mage is making things difficult for me."
A bitter look appeared on Lord's face, and he said helplessly: "How could I possibly do something involving the River of Time? Perhaps it's because of Setoorn's problem?"
Gu Yi closed her eyes slightly, her gaze fixed on Lord's expression for a long time.
Until Lord felt chills all over, Gu Yi then withdrew her aura, returned to her previous gentle state, and sighed: "What you said also makes sense, Setoorn can indeed do it, perhaps I was too anxious."
It worked!
Lord suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling extremely grateful to Setoorn!
If it weren't for Setoorn taking the blame for him, I'm afraid the Supreme Mage wouldn't have believed him so easily!
"Young man."
Gu Yi looked at Lord meaningfully and said, "I hope you can remember what you said today, and never forget that you are a human, an Earthling!"
"I will remember... Mage!"
Lord nodded seriously, he certainly wouldn't deny this.
"Be careful of Setoorn's power, it's not that simple."
Gu Yi turned around and opened the portal, leaving a light sentence: "If you want to control this power in the future, then come to Kamar-Taj to find me."
