Chapter 286 285: Crowd AttractionChapter 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.
'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.'
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt'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.
He was extremely handsome, so handsome that it was only now that Corey noticed a lot of stares and gazes in his direction.
His previous black eyes were no more. His eyes now contained a mystical, alluring, chilling gaze and beauty.
His skinny and short build was also no more. He was now tall and buff. His physique, even with his clothes, had attained a sort of beauty and perfection that a human could not put into words.
In fact, a human would not be able to explain why his physique looked so… perfect.
Corey was not a giant, and neither did he have so much muscles that would make one think that the muscles were too much.
Corey's physique and stature just seemed… perfect and… unattainable.
Although Corey had all these changes, he was not too surprised since he had seen himself in the mirror before.
What surprised him was his hair.
Not only had his body, face, and eyes changed after absorbing the Paragon Ancestor's blood and the Veinweaver's Dreamgrass, but his hair was also beginning to change.
Corey's hair was usually black afro hair, which had grown a lot due to Corey's negligence in cutting it. But now, Corey's hair was no longer pure black. The tip of his hair was now white, a refined sort of white.
'Why is my hair changing?'
Corey frowned slightly with a tinge of bafflement in his eyes as he gazed at his reflection.
[All True Paragons have black and white hair. Anybody that has the blood of a Paragon in them would have black and white hair. Though, the concentration of the black or white hair depends on the purity of the Paragon's blood in them.]
To Corey's surprise, Nina gave a reply to his confusion without him consulting her.
He was at first taken aback, but then he tilted in confusion.
'I don't get.'
A soft sigh resounded in Corey's mind.
[The natural color of your hair was black right?]
Nina said, and Corey nodded.
[The purer the Paragon blood in you gets, the whiter your hair will become.]
[Your hair would not become completely white in the end. Your hair would be a mixture of white and black in a perfect 50-50 ratio.]
[Assuming your hair was naturally white, part of it would turn black.]
[If it were another color, it would still change to black and white.]
[You also have the ability to choose what part of your hair you want to be white and black.]
A strange expression appeared on Corey's face when he heard Nina's last sentence.
"Why do Paragons have such an ability?"
[I don't know. Only the Paragon Ancestor knows.]
Corey's lips twitched, and then he shrugged.
He looked around him, and he noticed that a crowd had formed around him at some point. There were gazes of admiration, envy, fear, bafflement, curiosity, fighting intent, killing intent, and so on.
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.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOn 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.
