Chapter 563 – Lexi the Four Heavenly Kings (7)
“You mean you saw Lexi’s sisters?”
“Yes.”
“How?”
“I do not know. I could see the images of the women connected to me. I saw those women among them.”
“Dangerous. You can’t call those women.”
“I do not know. I don’t think you saw me properly. The moment I was about to see it, I closed the door.”
Crispin thought of something to himself.
“Okay, how about doing this?”
“How?”
“She talks to those girls sometimes.”
“Conversation? Far away?”
“Yeah, you probably have the same abilities as your sister, so you can do that if you put your mind to it. How about impersonating her older sister? She has eaten and is full, so she doesn’t have to look for me for the time being. You cheat like that.”
“Ah…”
Crispin’s idea was fine.
She really doesn’t know yet if it will work or not.
Crispin properly grasped my current condition.
As she said, I inherited Lexi’s abilities intact.
Thanks to that, I was able to look at all the women who were exposed to the ability of ‘a crush without a reason’ while sitting.
As Crispin said, if Lexie was able to communicate with her sisters at a distance, there was a good chance I could too.
“Okay, I’ll try.”
I closed my eyes again.
And I followed that dark sensation from before.
Soon, a disquieting aura permeated his heart, and they began to appear again.
They were still sitting at the table, but they looked different from before.
They were talking hard about something.
As I got closer, I heard a voice.
“Lexi? Did you feel Lexi?”
“Yeah, he or who else can get in touch with us? I was sure he had mana.”
“It’s strange. What would she have said if it had been. Why did you leave without saying anything?”
“It’s strange because I’m not like her. Aren’t you someone else?”
“Father? Father, why wouldn’t I know? And it’s even weirder when my dad comes to visit us and walks away without saying anything.”
I realized they were talking about me.
More precisely, they did not know of my existence.
They were just talking about someone who came close to them and then disappeared.
It was Daisy who sensed me most accurately.
She is probably the eldest of these four sisters.
The energy I felt was the strongest.
I needed to come first before they reached a reasonable conclusion.
‘What do we do?’
If I speak up, won’t these women hear it?
Also, what does it look like?
If these women saw me, there was no way they would think of me as Lexi.
‘Perhaps…’
Maybe I was misunderstanding something.
It would be correct that the ability to look into women who are exposed to the ability of ‘a crush without reason’ was passed on from Lexi.
However, there was no guarantee that her abilities would carry over the same way she had.
Hadn’t Lexie planted mana shards in the women’s bodies to keep them under her control?
There was a difference between the way she put someone in her self-control and her ability to mine.
I thought maybe her ability passed over me and changed or evolved in a way that suited me.
So is the content of these women’s conversations.
It didn’t surprise me that I couldn’t see myself.
In the first place, when conversing at a distance, couldn’t these women just talk in their heads without looking at them?
Like some kind of telepathy.
You can feel it, but you cannot see it.
It occurred to me that if it wasn’t for this, Crispin wouldn’t have even commented on me to impersonate her Lexi.
‘Let’s try it.’
I had Lexi’s mana.
In fact, it wasn’t that difficult to imitate her if you couldn’t see her.
“Sisters.”
I cautiously spoke to the other three women of the Four Heavenly Kings, Anna, Sasha, and Daisy.
“Yes? Are you Lexi?”
Daisy turned her head around her—I was startled to see me—so she asked.
“Yes, sister. I’m sorry earlier. Crispin spoke to her and briefly distracted her.”
“Ah, you mean the cute girl? Yes yes, it was I also wondered why you just ran away.”
“I was eating, and I’m sorry for suddenly coming to you.”
“No, it’s a conversation with my beloved brother, but what does rice have to do with it? By the way…”
Daisy frowned and seemed to be concentrating, then she asked me.
“Have you eaten? Until yesterday, I was worried about your lack of energy, but today you seem to be very healthy. Did you eat well?”
I didn’t understand what this meant at first.
But I soon remembered one thing Crispin had told me.
The other women of the Four Heavenly Kings, Lexi’s older sisters, say that when her Lexie is on the verge of starvation, she will return to Korea and force her to eat.
That meant that the women of the Four Heavenly Kings could sense each other’s condition from a distance.
I thought this was a very good thing.
Because if you deal with it well, you will be able to prevent these women from entering Korea for a while.
“Yeah, I changed my mind. I decided to accept the fate I couldn’t resist anyway. I’m sorry for hurting you unnies during this time. Now I will eat well and do my job well.”
“What? Is that really Are you really going to eat properly in the future?”
“Yeah~ It’s been a long time since I ate, so I was really satisfied. It makes me wonder why I refused and put up with it. Sisters~ Don’t worry anymore. I’ll be fine here.”
“Yeah~ Now our hearts are at ease. Congratulations, Lexi. And I love you, you know?”
“Yeah, you know, sister. Anna and Sasha, I love you too.”
“Me too, Lexi. Even if we are apart, we are always one.”
Anna said so immediately, but for some reason Sasha didn’t say anything and just looked this way with her eyes full of suspicion.
I could tell she was suspicious of me.
Perhaps Lexie doesn’t think it’s natural that she suddenly started eating her meal.
Anyway, if the conversation was longer, there was a fear that the lie would be discovered.
I quickly said goodbye to them.
“I spoke to you because I wanted to tell you this. I’ll be fine. Sisters are doing well too, okay?”
“Ugh~ Lexi. Thanks. If anything happens, talk to me like you do now.”
“Lexi, you’re healthy~”
Daisy scolded Sasha for not saying anything until the end.
“Sasha! Why don’t you say goodbye Aren’t you my sister?”
“Ah, yes. Lexi, I love you.”
“Yeah~ Sisters, hello. See you next time~”
After greeting her, I cut off the ceremony connected with them.
“Whoa…”
When she came back to reality and let out a sigh of relief, Crispin was smiling next to her.
“Hey~ You’re good at acting~”
It seemed that when I conversed with women in my consciousness, the actual voice came out.
I thought I should keep this in mind the next time I do the same thing.
“It worked, right?”
“Yes. One person who seems to have been deceived…”
“Are you Sasha?”
“Yes.”
“Sasha is naturally suspicious. Still, since Daisy hates that kind of character, I’m going to criticize her a lot. Don’t mind.”
Even when I told her not to mind, I kept thinking of Sasha’s frown.
He hoped that her doubts would not last long.
Anyway, with Crispin’s base, he was able to escape from immediate danger.
After eating, I went outside and walked around the house.
This place was no longer a foreign place to me.
It was friendly, and in a sense, it felt like it was part of my body.
‘Perhaps…’
I thought that if Lexi’s ability was passed on to me, I might be able to build a house like this according to my will.
If you make a house like that, the design will be different from this house.
It’s not that I dislike medieval fantasy-style buildings, but I was born and live in modern times.
It was good to be smaller, so I liked a place where I could live more conveniently.
‘When will he wake up?’
It was nice to look around the house, but spending time like this got a bit boring.
Lexie fell asleep, and she didn’t know how long that sleep would last.
As expected, it seemed to be a fairly long sleep.
Her empty stomach was large enough to remind me of darkness.
It was clear that the energy that filled her inside had carried her into her long slumber.
I closed my eyes again and focused my consciousness.
Women who are connected through ‘a crush without reason’.
There were a lot of girls I hadn’t seen in a long time, so it felt good to check their faces.
Some women were just resting, while others were doing their own thing.
One by one, as if watching a slide video, I was passing by, and suddenly I saw a face I hadn’t seen in a really long time.
‘Jo Ah-yeong…’
She had returned to the United States after the death of her brother Jo Dong-geun, who had been posing as her brother.
‘Airplane?’
She was sitting on the plane.
