Chapter 180 : Astral Vision
"Luna, there is no need to worry too much. Evelyn wouldn't do something like that before knowing the situation. Also, she wouldn't kill him just because of this, as I can use him as a reason for descent when the time comes," Sera explained calmly.
But Luna still remained skeptical about it as she knew Evelyn very well and what she did in her previous life. However, she didn't say anything and decided to warn Li Wei about it when the time comes.
***
As she was thinking about this, the earth transitioned into morning, and Li Wei woke up a little later than the time he wanted to, but it was still early as Li Xin and Li Yin were both sleeping and snuggling to him.
Watching them, Li Wei smiled softly, ruffling their hair, when suddenly he noticed a small orange light floating comfortably above their heads.
Before he could think anything, a lot of them appeared in different sizes and colors, making him shocked.
'Spirits!' Li Wei muttered in his mind, watching the energy balls floating around him.
They were none other than the mysterious spirits birthed by the world system. However, because of the low-level area, they weren't that big in size, and the numbers were low, but it was still enough to fill the whole room densely.
Li Wei, who saw this, became a little dumbfounded because the spirits were blocking his vision.
However, as long as he focused a little behind them, the spirits all disappeared from his sight, leaving only the information remaining, like where they existed, in which color, and in which form, even if he didn't have any connection with them.
'It seems the implementation of the gift is finished,' Li Wei thought with a stunned look, as the process had been stuck at ten percent and he never expected it to complete so soon.
But thinking of what happened in the dream yesterday, he concluded it might be the world system that finished the process early for some reason.
As he thought of this, he checked his system logs where he found the gift implementation getting finished when he was in the dream, and he also got to know the name of the gift, which was Astral Vision.
This gift would allow him to see the spirits and such related entities, while there were also other uses, such as enhancing his vision and ability to see at night without activating any skill.
Reading the description, Li Wei felt a little stunned, but he didn't care too much and observed the spirits around him.
They were like energy balls with the sole purpose of finding a high-level entity to stay beside and help them.
Knowing this, Li Wei felt a little depressed as he couldn't form a contract with spirits who didn't have consciousness. However, he didn't think too much and got up to get ready without alerting Li Xin and Li Yin, who were sleeping peacefully.
Even after he was done with his bath, they were still sleeping, but he didn't wake them up and made his way to the kitchen to prepare for breakfast, only to become a little stunned as he found Olivia waiting there for him.
But she was a bit sleep-deprived, which made him worry.
"Olivia, what happened? If there's something wrong, just tell me. I will help you, no matter what," Li Wei assured her, ruffling her silver hair, thinking she was worried about her past.
But to his surprise, Olivia shook her head with embarrassment.
"It's not what you think, Brother Li," she replied with an embarrassed tone as she thought of Lily requesting to sleep on her chest last night, while threatening not to give her the heaven's potion she bought it for her, which Olivia couldn't accept.
So, with no choice, Olivia agreed that Lily could sleep on her chest, but only in slime form, to which Lily didn't object and slept in the comfy, soft bed, unaware that Olivia was having trouble sleeping.
However, Olivia convinced herself that Lily was nothing more than a cute pet before finally getting a few hours of sleep and waking up early to help Li Wei in cooking.
Lily was upset about leaving the soft bed but, thinking about the delicious breakfast, she decided to sacrifice the comfort for dreams of the upcoming future; finally letting go of Olivia, who was sleep-deprived.
Li Wei didn't know all of this, so he was a bit puzzled, but he didn't inquire further, thinking it was something private.
"Olivia, if you're feeling sleepy, you can go and rest. There are only a few dishes for breakfast, and I can handle them," Li Wei suggested, noticing her sleepy eyes.
But at the mention of this, Olivia's sleepiness disappeared, and she shook her head hurriedly.
"Brother Li, I'm not sleepy. Let me help you," she replied, standing at the kitchen counter and waiting for his instructions with a firm face.
Li Wei became speechless at this, but he shook his head and started to prepare breakfast with Olivia's help.
In an hour, he finished preparing a luxurious breakfast, while everyone already arrived at the dinner table, waiting for it with had red faces and embarrassed look making him puzzled.
'What the hell is happening here? Can someone explain to me?' Li Wei thought with a frown, as even Irene has woken up early and was sitting with a red face.
Olivia was also embarrassed, but not as much, because she used the Heaven's Potion in the night, knowing she has to cook with Li Wei early in the morning, while others followed Aunt Eliza's suggestion carefully to ensure it has a hundred percent effect.
Only Lily, who couldn't use the potion, was sulking sadly, waiting for breakfast while planning how to attack Olivia once again.
Li Wei, unaware of all this, remained puzzled, but he didn't dwell on it too much and served the delicious breakfast to everyone.
"Mmm, Brother Wei, your cooking is really good. It's a pity you don't have rare cooking ingredients," Irene muttered with a disappointed expression.
"Miss Irene, this is just a low-level area, so don't get your hopes up too much. Also, are you ready for what you promised?" Li Wei inquired, taking a bite of his egg sandwich.
While in response, Irene nodded hurriedly.
"Of course, Brother Wei. I'm ready to beat you up whenever you want," she replied with an excited look, surprising Li Xin and the others who didn't know about their arrangement.
"Brother, are you going to spar with Miss Irene?" Li Xin asked with a strange look, wondering when he developed a liking for getting beaten up by girls.
The others also looked at him with the same gaze, causing Li Wei's expression to twitch.
"XinXin, and all of you, stop looking at me like that. Even if she can beat me, you have to ask first if she dares or not," Li Wei stated with annoyance.
Hearing this, they all turned towards Irene, who shook her head like a bullied girl, afraid he might not give her snow to play with.
"Poor Miss Irene, getting bullied by Brother," Li Xin murmured, watching her like this, making Li Wei speechless.
But he didn't care too much, as she wasn't calling her sister-in-law now.
'Maybe she is finally changing her mind,' Li Wei thought with doubt as he finished his breakfast with everyone and headed towards the training room with them.
However, before he could even reach downstairs, the bell of the villa rang multiple times, making him and the others stunned.
"It's only 9 AM, who came this early?" Li Xin muttered with a question.
If Emily wanted to, she would inform them first or wouldn't continuously ring the bell like this, not to mention she wouldn't come this early.
Li Wei, too, was puzzled when the bell rang again with impatience, making him frown.
"XinXin, all of you stay here. I think someone came here to pick a fight," he suggested, looking at them, to which they all nodded and with that, Li Wei headed towards the door alone, wondering who it might be.
'Is it some overconfident guy, or that old foggy Lucius coming to trick me again?' he thought with a frown before opening the door, only to frown harder as he saw four young men around the age of twenty-one or twenty-two standing at the door.
They were all wearing arrogant expressions that suited the expensive, luxurious clothes adorned with a noble crest.
The four of them also frowned as they watched Li Wei and tried to look inside, but their view was obstructed by an anti-spy system that prevented anyone from spying inside.
"Hey, what the hell are you trying to look at? Your mother and sister are prostituting somewhere else, not here, so keep your eyes off from inside," Li Wei warned with a cold look, watching their gazes.
At the party, Li Xin and the others became famous, so there was talk about a man who owned Villa No.1 and them, because many people have seen Li Wei entering the Villa No.1 with beautiful girls.
So, it only needed a little time before some overconfident people came to his door looking for trouble, as they didn't know he would be the Lucifer who had wiped out the monster stampede.
