Looking at the steaming cup of tea in front of him, Mike hesitated for a moment and finally reached out his hand to drink the hot tea. Previously, because of his fear for his life, Mike was often timid.

However, everything was different now, Mike had returned to the game world. Even if the tea was really poisonous, he would at most lose some experience points. There was no need to be so afraid anymore.

After feeling the warmth of the tea, Mike gently raised the cup to drink it. The next moment, the warm tea slowly made its way into his body with warmth. Mike felt more at ease after a few sips.

It was as if he was resting in a hot spring, instantly washing away his fatigue.

He even felt that his mind had become extremely clear from it.

Mike secretly checked his status bar.

There was an additional buff in his status bar.

[Clear and bright intelligence for mental strength + 20%, lasts for 24 hours.]

Seeing this buff, Mike looked at Lady Nikorei with slight surprise.

Lady Nikorei smiled and said, “You don’t have to be so vigilant. I have no intention of harming you.”

Mike was silent for a moment before he spoke. “…Even though I’ve done so many things that were harmful to the elves?”

Since that Mike had returned to the past, this world was related to what had happened before.

In other words, in this world, the death of the Elf Princess Veronica Sabrina would be related to him. Including the death of the two elven queens and the two wars between the humans and the elves — these were all inextricably linked to him.

For a powerful psychic like Lady Nikorei, she would have known of all this just like the back of her hand.

However, under such circumstances, she was still willing to be so friendly to him.

This made Mike feel very puzzled.

However, Lady Nikorei still maintained her smile and composure as she spoke.

“There are many things in this world that we can not control.

“To the world, we may be small, so small that we are like a speck of dust.

“Many people always feel that they can change the world.

“But they don’t know that from a macro perspective, the impact they provide is negligible.

“Some things, even without the influence of those people, are destined to move in that direction.

“Everything is destined by fate.”

Mike listened to Lady Nikorei’s words in silence and did not interrupt her.

Nikorei poured more tea into mike’s cup, then she looked at Stone and Egg before continuing.

“Little friends, come and have a taste.”

Stone and Egg both had very innocent and pure personalities. Without any hesitation, they sat beside the table and picked up the teacup to drink. After tasting the delicious tea, the two little friends jumped off the table happily and began to dance.

Nikorei looked at them and revealed a gratified smile, “If all the creatures in the world could be as pure as them, so many things wouldn’t have happened.”

Mike still stayed silent. He agreed with Lady Nikorei’s point of view very much. Unfortunately, he himself was also one of the many laymen in the world.

He wanted to be strong, rich, powerful, respected by others…

He wanted to live!

In this world, he could not avoid the chaos. He even took the initiative to fall into the chaos and be the one to cause it.
