Chapter 205
Well, ain’t this a fine mess? My plan is going down the drain then, isn’t it?
Ugh, I should’ve just played along and pretended to be hypnotized.
This villain was such a weakling. How can he actually need me to play along?!
What a pain in the neck!
Just then, Laws came out of the kitchen with a wide grin on his face and a couple of cups of coffee in his hands.
He casually sat down, slid the cup of coffee in front of Astrid, and said, “Astrid, I heard you’re a magician, and I actually dig magic too. I learned a trick and wanted to get your advice.”
Astrid knew Laws was fibbing, so she played along, “I wouldn’t dare to advise you, but we can think of it as a magic exchange.”
“Great, great.” Due to the earlier incident, Laws was a bit flustered when he saw Astrid. He pulled out a mirror, “Astrid, you’ve gotta keep your eyes on this mirror. See if you can spot any flaws.”
A mirror? Such an antiquated method.
Astrid was really ticked off, but she still played along and stared at the mirror..
After a while, she figured it was about time.
Astrid then put on a spaced–out look and pretended to zone out.
Laws thought she was hypnotized and regained his confidence when he saw her like that.
