"Can't you do it?" Having exited the safety door and returning to the corridors inside the Seges Building, Wolf's mood had improved significantly, and he began to tease. At least he was not trapped like a turtle in a jar now.
"I can on stage," Jiang Shu shrugged as he walked out with him. "In real life... read more books, only science is omnipotent."
"You seem to be always trying to convince me that magic isn't omnipotent," Wolf said as he walked briskly in another direction. "What, could it be that you're really just using magic to cover up the fact that you can do 'Magic'?"
"If only that were true," replied Jiang Shu, his gaze drifting across the offices in the corridor, as if seeing through the building to places far beyond.
On stage, magic indeed appeared to be omnipotent, but the term 'Deception' seemed capable of transferring that onstage magic into Lonely City to make it a reality.
Perhaps one day he really would be able to wave his fingers and settle all injustices.
