Chapter 2974: Unknown Fear

While Luigi kept trying to use music to heal Uriel, on the other side, in the heart space.

After closing his eyes for half a minute, Laplace finally opened his eyes.

"How's it going? Did Gleipnir find the Ancient Tooth Fairy?" Angel asked at the side.

After they returned to reality from the Dream Crystal, Laplace closed his eyes and began to share minds with Gleipnir.

In the past, it only took a moment for Laplace to share spiritual information with his own body, but this time, Laplace was in contact with Graipnir for a full half minute.

This made Angel wonder if something happened to Gleipnir.

Laplace: "We have been contacted. Gleipnir is heading here with the Ancient Tooth Fairy."

Laplace paused for a moment before saying, "Gleipnir and I just talked about the ownership of the heart space."

Angel was stunned for a moment and seemed to understand something.

Laplace: "I have made it clear to her that the ownership of the heart space, whether in the past, present or future, has nothing to do with me. And my will represents my position. If she wants to change my Standing is the destruction of my will.”

Laplace's words were serious, but she once again expressed her attitude that she was on Angel's side.

In fact, Angel had already made a guess when Laplace and Graipnir were in contact for half a minute.

Information sharing can be completed in an instant, but Laplace contacted Graipnir for half a minute, which meant that they were not only sharing information, but also exchanging opinions.

Angel could probably guess that after hearing about the specific situation of the Heart Space, Gleipnir immediately felt that there were deeper interests to be explored. In addition, it was difficult for Angel to directly enter the Mirror Realm, so She might suggest that Laplace take advantage of this opportunity to occupy the heart space and reap maximum benefits.

Previously, when the Dream Crystal was born, Gleipnir also persuaded Laplace to take it as his own.

It's not that Gleipnir is ignorant, it's that she thinks that she has to put on a bad face and offer sky-high prices in order to have more room for maneuver.

To put it bluntly, Graipnir mainly protects Laplace's interests, but the way she protects them seems very extreme.

"Actually, it doesn't hurt to talk about the ownership of the heart space. After all, I can't survive in the mirror realm for a long time." Angel said lightly.

Laplace glanced at Angel, but did not answer, but said: "Do you think Graipnir is utilitarian?"

Angel smiled noncommittally.

He does not think that Greipnir is utilitarian. In his opinion, Greipnir is the one among the three incarnations who needs to put on a bad face. Maybe playing blackface will make others annoying, but for Laplace, it has many benefits.

Finding ways to maximize personal interests is not utilitarian, it is the way to survive in the world.

When Laplace saw Angel didn't answer, he said to himself: "If I were you, I would think that Graipnir is very utilitarian."

"However, in my opinion, she is not utilitarian, but she is too afraid of you." Laplace said lightly: "This is not my interpretation of her, but that she cares too much about the results of divination, and you are her People who can’t see clearly. Even in the reflection of the heart, you are in a fog.”

Laplace looked at Angel, moved his eyes downward, and glanced at the Bloody Night Asylum on his shoulder.

"She never believed the reason you gave last time."

"She thinks that by making a deal with you, I am seeking skin from a tiger."

Angel: "..." Seeking skin from a tiger? Who is this tiger? He even had to be careful when following Laplace into the Sea of ​​Empty Mirrors. Is this considered a tiger? Moreover, anyone with eyes can see the huge gap between him and Laplace, especially the gap in strength.

In this case, he is seeking skin from a tiger!

Laplace: "It's funny, right? But that's the kind of person she is. Her fear of the unknown is higher than the facts. I don't know if she has divined something again, but I can feel her fear of you. ”

"It is precisely because of fear that she believes that she must occupy an absolute dominant position in this transaction."

After hearing this, Angel felt speechless.

He doesn't understand Gleipnir's logic. He wants to occupy an absolute advantage because of fear? Is there any logical relationship here?

Angel was full of complaints in his heart, but he was very calm on the face: "Divination is not omnipotent, and predictions are not absolutely sure to happen. There are too many unknown people and things in this world. If you are afraid just because of the unknown, you may not be able to move forward. The pace is difficult.”

Laplace: "You are right. But I believe that Graipnir also understands this truth, but she still shows fear. Why do you think this is?"

Angel: "...why?"

Laplace: "Maybe in her inspiration, it would be dangerous for me to confront you."

Angel: "So, are you testing me?"

"I didn't..." Halfway through her words, Laplace suddenly fell silent. She frowned slightly, as if she had figured out something.

After a while, Laplace sighed softly: "I made a miscalculation."

Angel: "???"

Laplace hesitated for a moment and then said slowly: "...it was Graipnir who plotted against me and used me to test you."

Gleipnir and Laplace did not mention the probing in the half-minute exchange, but with Gleipnir's wisdom, she knew that Laplace would definitely explain to Angel on purpose.

As long as the explanation was given, many hidden problems would be exposed.

This is probably the effect Gleipnir wanted to achieve.

She knew that Laplace would not take the initiative to ask Angel's secret, so she used this roundabout way to calculate Gleipnir and use it to ask Angel's secret.

Laplace did not think of these at first, but she was not stupid and knew Gleipnir's character very well. When she subconsciously began to test Angel, she immediately came to her senses.

It's just that the words have been spoken, and it's too late to take them back.

Many times, when the words are not spoken, everyone can tacitly agree not to talk about it. But if they are really spoken, if they are ignored, it may become a knot in their hearts, lying between them.

After Laplace told the situation, she pondered for a moment and said, "I believe you. This is my intuition."

Laplace meant that even if Angel didn't explain, she would still believe Angel.

But Angel didn't think so.

Just like Gleipnir's calculation, if the problem is not exposed, it's fine; if it is really exposed, it will be blamed if it is not solved.

Angel: "If Gleipnir is really afraid, then I can probably guess what she is afraid of."

Laplace sighed in her heart. She knew that Angel said this, indicating that she wanted to solve some problems between them.

Gleipnir's goal was achieved, but Laplace didn't like this calculation.

Maybe Gleipnir was solving some hidden problems, but it was also a blow to the mutual trust she and Angel had established.

In Gleipnir's view, solving the problem first is better for the future; but Laplace thinks that it is better to deepen mutual trust than to delve into each other's secrets.

It is difficult to say who is right or wrong, but Laplace personally does not want to solve the problem in this way.

Although he was dissatisfied in his heart, Laplace did not show it. These dissatisfactions will be projected on Gleipnir in the future, not on Angel in front of him.

"In my opinion, Gleipnir is not afraid of me, but the power behind me."

There are actually two so-called powers behind me.

The first is the Savage Cave. The Iron Armored Granny has been staying in the Dream Wilderness just to protect Angel and wait for him to shake people anytime and anywhere. From this, we can know the attitude of the Savage Cave.

As long as Angel is in trouble, no matter where he is, the Savage Cave will definitely come. With the background of the Savage Cave, even the White Day Mirror Domain will definitely be able to find it.

You know, Mirror Princess is not dead, she is just sleeping. She still has an unfallen royal city in the White Day Mirror Domain! And because of the tea party, she will probably wake up in the near future.

If Mirror Princess comes to the Mirror Domain to deal with Laplace, Laplace may not be able to take it.

The second is the power of the Nightmare Realm.

When Angel was an apprentice, he already had the ability to flip tables, and he almost destroyed Night Demon City.

Of course, the ability to flip tables at that time was more of a coincidence of the right time and place. Now, if Angel wants to reproduce the scene of the Twilight Well, it may not be successful.

But Angel is now a formal wizard after all, and he has a way to enter the Nightmare Realm.

Moreover, he can contact Wangwang.

If he really encounters danger in the Mirror Realm, Angel thinks that he still has a chance to try to flip the table. Even if he can't flip it, he can still escape.

Angel briefly talked about the power behind him. Among them, the first one was detailed, and the second one, Angel did not elaborate, but just mentioned it briefly as "related to the Nightmare Realm".

After listening, Laplace just nodded silently and did not continue to ask.

She felt that Angel's illusion and Dream Crystal Origin had a strange aura before. She was a little familiar with this aura, but she could never remember where she had sensed it.

Laplace was still thinking about it later, but now that Angel directly said "Nightmare", she immediately understood that the breath of Dream Crystal Origin came from Nightmare.

Laplace had never been to Nightmare, but she had personally sensed the breath of Nightmare... in the area of ​​Naraku City.

The former Naraku City was the birthplace of the entrance to Nightmare.

It seemed to be just a few hundred years ago.

At that time, her time body had been in contact with the wise master in Naraku City for many years, and therefore sensed the fleeting breath of Nightmare.

At that time, her time body did not know what Nightmare was, until the wise master popularized it, and later learned about the horror of Nightmare.

She still remembered that her time body also said that there were humans who were pulled into Nightmare at that time.

And the time body that was outside at that time was... Gleipnir.

Laplace had guessed at this time that the "fear" that Gleipnir mentioned might not be the Savage Cave that Angel mentioned, but more likely the power of Nightmare.

Because Gleipnir had personally felt the power of the Nightmare Realm, she became alert when she discovered a similar aura in the Dream Crystal.

And this was probably the reason why Gleipnir tried his best to get Laplace to test Angel's trump card.

Although Angel did not reveal this trump card completely in the end. But Laplace felt that it was enough.

She had never thought of exploring Angel's secrets.

Until now, they still have the foundation for building further mutual trust. If they go deeper, this foundation of mutual trust will definitely have a huge crack, and it will be difficult to go further.

Laplace no longer asked about the nightmare world, but whispered: "Speaking of which, it seems that we haven't met formally yet."

Angel glanced at Laplace in confusion.

Laplace said lightly: "I mean my original body."

Now, Laplace only showed the clone of the original body and the time body.

And Laplace's original body, Angel remembered, seemed to be a huge non-human creature... It can be seen from the scales it shed.

Angel: "Is your original body coming over?"

Laplace shook his head: "No, my original body cannot move at present, but this is the coordinate of my original body..."

Laplace stretched out his hand and passed a coordinate information to Angel.

"If you want, we can meet formally... and sign an alliance contract."

"It would be even better if I can meet Lady Mirror Princess at that time."

Angel didn't understand the meaning of Laplace giving his original body coordinates at first, but now he understands a little. Is this Laplace's... compensation?

Moreover, from Laplace's words, it can be seen that she doesn't mind bringing outsiders to see her.

This also means that if Angel is worried that it is not safe for one person to see her, he can tell the Savage Cave.

I have to say that Laplace is quite thoughtful.

However, it is not important to see Laplace's body or not. At least, Angel does not take it to heart.

As for the alliance contract? It doesn't matter either.

There is already a contract between them, and when Laplace assumes power, they are natural allies.

The so-called alliance contract is more of a strategic partner. Angel does not think that he can rise to the level of "strategic cooperation" with Laplace's body alone. This contract is obviously signed with the Savage Cave... or with the Phantom Demon Island.

These are all things for the future, so there is no need to rush now.

Compared with these invisible things, Angel is more concerned about the present.

Laplace: "Gleipnir and the Ancient Tooth Fairy are almost here. Are you planning to meet the Ancient Tooth Fairy in the heart space?"

Angel shook his head: "Let's not expose the heart space for now."

Although Angel had thought about using the heart space to win over the Ancient Tooth Fairies, he still hadn't fully understood the limits of the heart space, nor had he conducted further tests on the half-body mirror in the outside world.

It was obviously unwise to expose this half-step mysterious object to outsiders before he even understood all its characteristics.
