Ever since they stepped into the building for the first time, Ciara had felt something.
—Something invasive.
As an expert in mind games and Mind Magic, she was familiar with the sensation and concept. That was why she knew the truth immediately.
'We're in an illusion.'
Ciara acted naturally, though, trying her best to gather as much information as she could. She studied the building's structure, and the denizens within.
Everything felt real.
'Impressive… very impressive!'
The illusion was incredibly powerful, and the hold it had on them was very strong. However, with her Original Magic, [Phantom Link], Ciara was confident in her ability to escape.
Still… there was no way she would simply cut her adventure with Jerry so short.
They had to have some fun first!
Thus, the whole monster attacks that she instigated. Then, the wild goose chase she created. Everything was for the purpose of mutual bonding.
However, once Ciara realized that they had to get to the real world eventually, she faced a dilemma.
'If I tell him about the illusion now, he'll wonder why I didn't mention it earlier. Well, I could just lie to him, but…'
Jerry was currently battling a lot of self esteem problems. Ciara knew he felt inferior to her, and while it was cute, she wanted him to also grow.
'If I point out the problem and help him solve it, he'll probably feel worse.'
It was while she was brainstorming the issue that Ciara found the perfect excuse to use.
'A kiss!'
By causing him to kiss her, she would pretend as though it was the power of the kiss that broke them out of their predicament.
That way, Jerry would be the one to take the active position and feel good about himself after achieving the result.
'Plus, I get a kiss. Hehe… I'm such a genius!'
It was perfect, and foolproof too!
Well, there was one major issue that determined the success or failure of the plan. And that was simply Jerry's willingness.
As she'd feared, the boy initially didn't want to go along with it. Thus, she stole his Spell Cards before he even noticed.
'The Spell Card won't transport us to Jared since this is an illusion, but that's precisely the problem.'
If the Spell Card didn't work the way it was supposed to, Jerry could determine that they were in an illusion or under a certain effect. And that wouldn't bode well.
Worst case scenario would be if they indeed teleported to Jared, but were still within the illusion. That would just make the whole thing continuous, and Ciara would ultimately have to break them out without getting her kiss.
'I have to get my kiss!'
Thus, the Spell Cards had to go.
By giving Jerry time to think things over, by pretending to be asleep, he was slowly convinced.
Ciara knew how attractive she was, and that Jerry was attracted to her. If a kiss was the only feasible alternative, and she was practically waiting beside him…
….Jerry would ultimately kiss her!
And, just as she planned, everything came together.
'Sure, it was a forehead kiss, but it still works… for now.'
Ciara sent a mental pulse the moment Jerry planted his lips on her forehead, expertly utilizing her Original Magic to break down the false reality they were trapped in.
