Lord of the Mysteries

Chapter 1280 Chance Meeting in the Tiny City

On a steam locomotive heading for Midseashire’s Constant City.

Klein, who was dressed as a wandering magician, looked at the young man and his parents across the narrow table with items placed on it.

“I have two types of magic tricks. The first is to let your wishes come true. The second is to use a mirror to answer your question. Of course, the first type of magic requires payment, and the second requires you to answer questions posed by the mirror. What kind of performance do you want to watch?”

The young man had black hair and brown eyes. He seemed to have received a good education. He looked at his parents sitting beside him and said with a smile, “My wish is too difficult, so I won’t trouble you.

“In comparison, I’m more curious about the mirror that can answer questions.”

Klein sighed as he shook his head. With a flip of his left hand, he revealed a silver mirror with a black gem on both sides.

“It seems to be an antique.” The young man opposite him commented with piqued interest before saying, “My question is, what is the purpose of my visit to Constant City?”

A commonly seen smile, one which was often seen on the faces of street magicians, appeared on Klein’s face as he stroked the surface of the mirror with his right hand and said in a serious tone:

“Mirror, Mirror, please tell me the answer to the question.”

After repeating it three times, he released his right hand and showed the surface of the mirror to the three passengers.

There were a few silver words on it:

“To get married.”

“…Amazing.” The young man and his parents looked at each other in disbelief.

After boarding the train, they had never mentioned anything related to the wedding, nor did they reveal anything that people could use to make the connection.

This was the first time they had seen a magic trick that didn’t rely on props or a fake audience.

“Alright, it’s time for the mirror to ask.” Klein smiled as he covered the surface of the mirror with his right hand.

“Alright.” The young man replied, feeling intrigued.

“Next, let’s see what question the magic mirror will raise.” Klein released his right hand in an exaggerated manner as though he was performing a formal magic trick.

The silver words on the surface of the mirror had already changed, extending into a complete sentence:

“You would prefer your bride to be a woman in her forties or above, right?”

The young man’s expression froze for a moment before turning pale and then completely red.

He immediately rebutted. He couldn’t help but turn his head to
