Chapter 286 285: Crowd Attraction

"I can't believe so much has changed in just six months."

As Corey walked towards Rosa's house, his brows were deeply furrowed as he lost himself in his thoughts.

So much had changed since he entered the evolution center, and the worst part was his lack of information.

He didn't know the intricate details of Divine and his group's situation, nor did he know the situation of his Neon business.

He wasn't totally sure what his next set of actions should be.

'Normally, what I should do is look for the members of Divine's group and get information from them.'

'But, I have a bad feeling about the events surrounding Divine and the group.'

'When I asked that short guard about the conditions of Rosa, Fatty Black Bonez, and the rest, he said he doesn't know.'

'That means they are most likely not safe.'

'If they were safe and okay, the short guard would not have said those words as a reply.'

'If they were dead, he would most likely have told me.'

'... Though, I could be wrong.'

Corey's frown deepened.VIsit n0(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

'I feel like somebody is targeting the group, and they'll obviously observe me if I look for the group.'

Corey subtly looked around. Images of the crowded street appeared in his pupils.

'They might even be observing me at the moment.'

Corey stopped walking and looked up.

'I can't meet up with the group just yet.'

'Even though I'm much stronger than before, there are still people who are more powerful than me.'

'I need information... and I've also not learned everything about my newly gained abilities.'

'Can't I just relax for once?'

Corey released a tired sigh. Then he kept on walking.

'I'll check up on my Neon business instead. From there, I'll know what to do.'

'I guess I'll have to become Anon for some time.'

Corey thought, and a few seconds later, he paused in front of a large-sized mirror.

"What the?"

A baffled light appeared in Corey's eyes as he gazed at his reflection in the mirror.

Gone was the average-looking male with a childish face. Now, all Corey could see was a face that hardly had any resemblance to his past visage.

There were so many emotions around him that it baffled Corey slightly.

He frowned.

"Uhm? Mister? Are you interested in purchasing the mirror?"

A soft voice resounded behind him, and he turned around.

He saw a girl who seemed to be nine years or so looking at him with admiration and curiosity. Behind the girl was an older female with a similar appearance to the young girl, and he guessed the older female should be the young girl's mother.

On her face was an expression of apprehension.

His gaze shifted from the duo to the mirror, and he realized that he was currently in front of a shop that sold mirrors.

He looked around him once again, ignoring the crowd around him in the process, and he realized that he was in a market.

'Strange. Did I miss my way? The road I took isn't meant to lead to the market.'

Corey frowned.

"Mister?"

Corey looked at the young girl, and he noticed something. Then he smiled.

"How much is the mirror?"

A bright smile appeared on the girl's face, and she responded quickly and cheerfully.

"It's five value points mister!"

Corey nodded, then he looked at the older lady, who he presumed to be the mother.

"How do I pay?"

The lady, still having a tinge of apprehension in her eyes, pointed to a device on the wall.

Corey saw the device, and he nodded.

He walked towards it and placed his hands on the glass part of the device, transferring five value points to the lady.

When a beeping sound resounded from the device, the smile on the young girl's face became much brighter.

"Thank you Mister!"

The young girl bowed cutely, and Corey's smile widened a little. He knelt, and much to the fear of the older woman, he patted the young girl's head.

"You're welcome. Make sure to take care of your mother."

Corey said, and the young girl nodded repeatedly.

Corey smiled, then he held his purchased mirror and transferred it to his Tri-Pupil Eyes.

He waved at the young girl, and in the blink of an eye, he vanished.

Shock and surprise emerged in the young girl's gaze, her mother and the crowd watching him when they noticed his abrupt disappearance.

Some people tried to locate him, but their actions bore no fruit.
