Josh quickly stepped away to look in the other mirror because he was so terrified. He was unaware that the World Mirror could control other mirrors. Unsurprisingly, he noticed that he had wrinkles on his face and, more significantly, that he had grown shorter as he aged. He was even shorter than Lilly! Josh touched his wrinkled face, noticing that he had aged from a charming young man to an old man. “Lilly! I am old!” yelled Josh.
Lilly was speechless. “Stop playing!” She warned the World Mirror. Josh returned to his previous self. He was delighted and thought that being frozen at the age of ten was perfectly acceptable; it was far better than being an old man who was ten. “Josh, this mirror is called the World Mirror,” Lilly said. “It can display your appearance in your past, present, and afterlife, and it is also aware of all of your innermost thoughts while you are in front of it.” “The World Mirror can confuse people; everything it showed you was an illusion.” Josh's fears could be displayed through the World Mirror. Josh was stunned, then quickly became excited. That's so cool! Lilly jumped out of bed, grabbed the mirror, and sat back down on the sofa. “Josh, it also has a very powerful ability. It can recreate anything in this world that has appeared in front of it,” said Lilly. “What do you mean?” Josh said this in confusion.
Lilly said, “I came back using the elevator.” She discussed the procedure for returning with Josh and also brought up the individual who claimed to have the same father as her. “She is not Uncle Blake's daughter; Uncle Blake is not that kind of person,” Hannah said after hearing Lilly’s words. Josh was speechless and said, “Stop talking; you know nothing about it.” Lilly shook his head and said, “This is not important! The important thing is the elevator!” Josh was stunned. It doesn’t matter? Your father will be heartbroken to learn this. The World Mirror showed the appearance of the “elevator”.
The elevator had complicated lines and patterns. Countless lines converged into massive veins, eventually forming the look of an ‘elevator’. Josh couldn't stand it with just a glance, and he became dizzy. Hannah was dizzy as well. Josh asked, “Lilly, why do you call this an elevator?” As a science student, he was familiar with the elevator’s structure, but what was in front of him had nothing to do with it.
“I don’t understand either, but as long as | can write the spells, then | can go home anytime | want,” Lilly said as she studied the elevator’s runes. She was very familiar with writing spells in the void. Lilly was unaware that many people had difficulty writing spells on paper; it is nearly impossible to write spells in the void. The success rate of writing spells in the void was only about 10%. But she was always successful, so she decided to recreate the ‘elevator’.
Lilly was immersed in her research. Josh could not stand the suppressed lines in the mirror. Josh pulled out his phone, snapped a couple of pictures, and zoomed in on the phone; it worked. “I've never seen anything like that before”, Josh stated. “It's like the concept of space folding!” Even the most advanced instruments were unable to generate such lines! Lilly forgot to eat while studying it all day and night. Bettany and the others noticed Lilly was studying something important, and they didn’t dare disturb her. Lilly suddenly stood up! Josh quickly stood up and asked, “How's it going?” Lilly replied, “I'm hungry.”
