Chapter 414: Miles is Back!
Miles what happened to you? Are you okay? Evelyn rushed near Miles in worry. But Miles could see the glint in his mothers eyes.
Where the hell am I? Coin! Coin, can you hear me? Miles shouted in his mind but got no result. He looked at his wristwatch and noticed it was somehow shut down. He flared a little bit of energy almost instinctively and several buttons activated at the same time, as it did so, Miles heard the voice he was yearning to hear.Upstodatee from n(0)/ve/lbIn/.(co/m
Miles! Coin said in relief. Is it you? It is you!
I am back, buddy. Sorry for worrying you and thanks for helping me. I know it was you who showed me those subtle images. Miles said in his mind, but at this time, Mercer rose from his seat with full cautiousness. He looked at Miles ready to attack any second.
Lets talk about that stuff later, Miles. I will fill you in. Coin said. The conversation took place in his mind, thus it was almost instantaneous.
In the next second, visions started to fill his brain. As it was his body that experienced those events, although his mind was isolated at the time, he wasnt overwhelmed by them, and soon, he saw what happened ever since he passed out days ago. He returned to that cursed room where he was battling with Samuel that was in Vals body.
Sadly, I cannot kill you with the time I have. Samuel sighed as he jumped into the bed-like device. But let me give you a parting gift.
Mother, I was possessed by someone called Samuel Cross. Miles started to explain. He already drew out a plan as Coin filled him in. As soon as Miles activated him, Coin started to watch the security cameras in the building and realized Adam had a similar condition. Them being in Adams room also helped. Miles could feel the fluctuations in Adams mind much similar to Vals. Although if he didnt have background information, he couldnt guess, with a solid example, he could guess his way out.
What did you say? Mercer asked in rage.
I was in Portal World where I lucked upon an ancient room. There, I found a mysterious device much like teleportation hubs that were used in Grader Competition. When I touched it, another consciousness entered my own and started to attack mine. Although I had the upper hand, the device started to attack my mind and started to overwhelm me.
During the illusion battle, I used some of the Cross Techniques to inflict damage on my opponents mind, but the person who was trying to take over my body recognized them and called me a traitor. It was strange, because he shouldnt have known about Cross Techniques I used, but later he disclosed that he was from the Cross Empire and his name is Samuel Cross, which proves that he is from the group that left the planet. Miles explained.
A sworn knight? Mercer asked in shock and anger, And he attacked you? The Royal Prince?
Well, since we sold them out at the beginning of the invasion for the rest of the world, we are traitors, no royal family anymore. Miles shrugged his shoulders. Anyway, he took over my body, and to learn and imitate me, he started to trace back my steps. He found the Academys location through Coin. Though he somehow figured out how to disable him, which should be impossible, right?
Miles looked at the floating globe in the room. She was the mother of all AIs and wristwatches on Earth. If there was a killswitch that could isolate AIs, she would know of it.
