Chapter 294: Omniscience
Hearing this, Timus was slightly stunned. Only then did he realize that he, who had come with his teacher, actually did not know what his teacher was going to ask.
On the other hand, the other party already knew what they wanted.
This order was not right!
Mike did not show much surprise. The more Lady Nikorei acted like this, the more he was sure that he had found the right person.
“Since you know, what should I do?”
Mike calmly looked at Lady Nikorei who sat at the table and asked his question, expecting the desired answer.
Lady Nikorei had a faint smile on her face. She picked up the teapot from the table and slowly poured three cups of tea. “Don’t worry, I have something to ask you first. Have a cup of tea while you’re here.”
Soon, the three cups of tea were filled. The room was then filled with the faint fragrance of tea. Lady Nikorei took the lead to pick up a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp. Mike looked at the tea on the table and did not move.
However, Timus did not think too much about it. His nose twitched twice, and then his eyes lit up. He quickly walked to the table, picked up the cup of tea, and impatiently finished it in one gulp too.
Timus’s eyes became more satisfied. He could not help but ask, “This tea is too fragrant. What kind of tea is this?”
Lady Nikorei smiled and replied, “This is a white tea from the top of the White Mountain. It’s very rare.” As she said this, Lady Nikorei poured another cup of tea for Timus.
Then, she turned to look at Mike and asked, “Aren’t you going to drink it?”
Mike glanced at Timus and then at Lady Nikorei. Then, he slowly walked to the table and sat opposite Lady Nikorei. He went straight to the point, “I just want to know how I can go back now.”
This world was extremely dangerous for Mike. No matter how powerful he was, he could not make up for the fear of death. After all, Mike was a person who had died once. His experience of death was much deeper than anyone else in this world. He never wanted to experience death again.
Moreover, only by returning to the original world could he use a safer method to retrieve the bud growing on his body.
This was because, in the second world of the game, there were many ways to obtain dragon scales. He did not need to fight against an incomparably powerful dragon in this world.
He was just desperate to go home!
However, Lady Nikorei still spoke unhurriedly, “Young man, don’t be in such a hurry. Slow down.”
Mike looked at the psychic lady in front of him and said nothing. Or rather, he did not know what to say as he had a lot of worries in his heart.
If this Lady Nikorei really knew to such an extent how Mike came here from a parallel world. Then, did Lady Nikorei really know that Veronica Sabrina was actually killed by someone he sent?
That hypothesis was not impossible.
Therefore, he did not dare drink the cup of tea in front of him, even though Lady Nikorei and Timus had already finished a cup in front of him.
Finally, he still insisted, “I’m sorry, Ms. Lady Nikorei. I really don’t have time to waste.”
Lady Nikorei looked deeply at Mike and sighed from Mike’s behavior.
“You have a lot of worries, lot of thoughts, a lot of fears… and a lot of desires.
“I know what you’re worried about, but I want you to be at ease.
“I truly do know everything that you’re worried about.”
Timus was confused when he heard what Lady Nikorei said as he did not understand a single word.
However, the corners of Mike’s eyes twitched slightly. He was not sure if the elderly elven lady in front of him was deliberately mystifying things. Moreover, he could not afford to take this guessing gamble right now.
Looking at Mike’s expression, Lady Nikorei smiled slightly as she spoke, “Do you think that I might be deliberately mystifying things?”
“…”
Mike opened his mouth but dared not to say anything. He felt that this scene was somewhat familiar. It was as if… a similar scene had happened in Veronica Sabrina’s room before.
Lady Nikorei sighed and continued on while a thousand thoughts run through Mike’s mind.
“A lot of things are arranged by fate. I’m just a mere psychic.
“Knowing about the Heavens is easy, but defying the Heavens would be difficult…
“So, most of the time, I won’t participate in the things that happen in this world.
“Because when you change one thing, a butterfly effect will occur, changing everything else.
“We will never truly be able to deal with everything perfectly…”
Lady Nikorei seemed to be talking to Mike, but at the same time, she seemed to be talking to herself.
Mike frowned slightly and continued on silently listening in on her words.
He secretly glanced at Timus, wanting to observe his reaction. However, the young man did not notice Mike’s abnormality at all. He listened to Lady Nikorei’s words in a daze while pouring tea into his own cup.
Lady Nikorei glanced at Mike and said meaningfully,
“You’re not from here, I know that very well.
“The reason you came here is because you had no choice but to come here.
“Many things need to be influenced by one person, and you are the one who decides fate.
“Whether it’s the end of the war, the death of a certain race, the death of a certain person, or the rise of someone else, these are all fated.
“I can’t change it, and you can’t refuse it…”
When Mike heard this, he was slightly stunned. The mention of war was very easy to understand. Naturally, it referred to the war between the humans and elves.
Since Lady Nikorei mentioned that it was already over, it meant that she did know many things. However, the other sentences were very intriguing.
A certain race probably referred to the centaur race.
A certain person’s death, Mike knew it referred to Veronica Sabrina.
It seemed that she really knew the truth about that matter…
Mike gently adjusted the pace of his breathing, trying to appear calm.
He stole another glance at Timus, and Timus just happened to notice Mike’s gaze from the corner of his eye.
???
Timus did not understand Mike’s gaze at all. In fact, he did not understand what Lady Nikorei was saying either. He only felt that the tea in front of him was delicious.
Looking at this idiot, Mike sighed softly.
The rise of someone else should be referring to Timus…
It was really difficult to understand why there was such a huge difference between the two worlds.
He retracted his gaze and looked at Lady Nikorei again. Now, he was almost certain that this psychic was truly omniscient.
Mike hesitated for a moment and asked the question he was most concerned about.
“May I ask… If you know something else.
“I mean… about the fact that I was resurrected.”
He really wanted to know how omniscient this psychic was. He also wanted to know why he had been resurrected from the future and returned to the past.
Moreover, he had obtained a powerful SSS-grade talent.
Mike has never been able to find an answer to this. He felt that now was his only chance to get an answer.
However, Lady Nikorei looked at Mike and smiled, it was as if she expected Mike to ask this question.
“Let’s talk about how to get you back.”
