Five-Year Old Prophet is Pampered by Ten Brothers - Chapter 156

Chapter 156: Masks

Irene took out the items one by one from the bag and placed them on the table. There was an incense burner, an iron basin and some other items that Lauren did not recognize. No matter what, these items did not look good.

She also took out some fruit.

Lauren felt her stomach growl again.

‘I’m hungry! I want something to eat!’ Lauren thought.

Then, Irene took out a set of clothes and a mask from the bag.

Lauren cursed in her heart.

The clothes looked like they were meant for children, but the color of the clothes was very strange. They were all black, pure black. Just looking at them made people think of hell.

Which child would like to wear black? They were only using this oppressive color to suppress the children.

Lauren’s guess was right. Irene held the set of all-black clothes and walked towards Lauren.

Lauren’s heart frantically refused. However, she could not be exposed in real life, so she could only allow Irene to open her cage and help her change her clothes.

Fortunately, Lauren’s pocket dimension was invisible, so Irene did not notice anything. After taking off her original clothes, Lauren did not have the pocket dimension with her now.

Now, Lauren did not feel safe at all.

For so many years, the pocket dimension was practically inseparable from her.

Without the pocket dimension, she did not even have a talisman with her.

After changing her clothes, Irene put the mask on Lauren.

This mask was made of paper and there were no strange patterns on it.

However, it completely blocked Lauren’s face.

Lauren’s eyes were completely sealed, so she could not see what was happening outside.

This was not good at all.

When Irene was not paying attention, Lauren reached out her hand and quickly made a hole in her right eye of the mask. Through this small hole, Lauren could just barely see what was happening outside.

Irene threw her clothes in the corner.

Lauren recalled the children in the basement were still wearing the clothes when they were kidnapped. She assumed that this set of black clothes would be taken off and she would put on her original clothes again.

When Lauren thought of this, she felt relieved.

If the pocket dimension went missing, she would not be able to live anymore.

[System Divine Nine: Host, I thought I was the one you can’t live without?]

“System Divine Nine, I don’t have time to joke with you now! Have you asked about the things I asked you to ask?”

Lauren did not find any more information about the soul-returning spell in the ancient books. She thought that the host from other countries might have encountered similar situations, so she had allowed System Divine Nine to go on a “trip” to find out more.

[System Divine Nine: There’s no problem when I’m in charge. I went to ask my elder sister. She said that if you wanted to improve the effect of the soul-returning talisman, first of all, you had to choose those talismans with stronger spiritual power. Because these children’s souls have left their physical bodies for too long, they need stronger summoning power to be summoned back. Secondly, the distance between the soul and the physical body also had an effect.]

“So that’s how it is! I still need to refine the talismans with stronger spiritual power. Last year, I used up all those talismans to catch that 200-year-old vampire.”

After Irene had arranged all those things, she went out again.

Lauren could sense that the sound of her high heels was getting further and further away.

When Irene returned again, she was not alone.

Judging from the sound of footsteps, it was likely that the master had also arrived.

They had yet to enter the room, but the sound of their conversation had already reached Lauren’s ears.

“Are the preparations done?”

“They’re done. I’ve already changed the child’s clothes. We’re just waiting for the auspicious time.”

“Alright, then I’ll do the preparations on my side as well.”

In the next second, the door to the room was opened.

There was no normal lighting in the room. The lighting was the same as in the other rooms. It was red and Lauren could not see the master’s face clearly.

However, Lauren was able to see the master’s robes clearly. He was wearing a black and white robe.

The black and white trigram in the middle of the robe, in particular, immediately reminded Lauren of someone.

Lauren recalled where she had seen this robe before—the day Master Maverick came to the Torres family.

On that day, Master Maverick was wearing exactly the same robe.

Lauren used her right eye to take a closer look. As expected, she found a pattern of gold threads on the edge of the man’s robe.

Lauren finally knew why she felt that this master’s voice was very familiar from the beginning.
