Chapter 187: I Think She Has A Mental Illness

"Priestess Irene, what bonds are you talking about and who the hell is that man?" Lyla asked with an anxious expression, watching Irene smiling happily.

If Irene was really in love with someone and has advanced further, then soon a storm will be brewing in the whole kingdom. The reason was none other than her overprotective father who will do everything to find the culprit.

The reason why he hasn't taken any action yet is because he thought Irene might be using her artifact to disguise a woman into a man to create trouble and making it harder for everyone to find them.

He is the only one who knew she has such an artifact, so he was silent after hearing the news of it.

Because he knew his daughter very well—she didn't even allow him to pat her head—so would she get close to any other man and choose private clothes with them? Of course not.

For him, Irene was a very good girl with some troublesome nature who took her time to like things, so it was out of the question that she would fall in love with some man immediately. This was the reason why he only sent Lucius alone here to search for her.

If not, he will be personally coming here with a storm, as Irene was his favourite daughter, even though she created trouble for him and made his reputation go black.

However, the Pope forgot that his lovely daughter could outsmart him and knew what actions he would be taking now and in the future.

Because of this, Irene wasn't worried about him, and neither was Lyla's anxiousness was concern for her, as she just wanted more chaos.

"Lyla, as I said, I won't let any man touch me except him because I have a very special bond with him. I really, really want to tell you who he is and what our relationship is, but you have to promise me first not to get angry after knowing who is he," Irene requested with a guilty look, trying to pour oil and start a fire.

But before she could do so, Li Wei arrived behind her and bonked her head with his fist.

"Ouch! Li Wei, how dare you hit me?" Irene complained with teary eyes rubbing her innocent head.

But Li Wei didn't care and turned towards Lyla, who was looking at him with shock as unknown emotions swirled through her heart with a lot of questions.

However, her expression was only of shock, making Li Wei fail to see through her.

"Miss Lyla, don't listen to her nonsense, she is just making things up," he explained with a troubled sigh.

Hearing this, Lyla's inner thoughts calmed down a little, but she didn't say anything and waited for an explanation to which Li Wei didn't disappoint her.

"Miss Lyla, I was forced by her to follow along and help her escape. It's similar to how you have been tricked to sign the contract with her. As for the relationship she is babbling about, I think she has a mental illness and nothing else," Li Wei stated with an exhausted face.

While hearing this, Irene, who was still rubbing her head dramatically, became mad at him.

"Li Wei! I don't have any mental illness! It's you who are the one always bullying me for no reason! This is the best example of people who have mental illness," she shouted with a sulky look.

However Li Wei ignored her and looked at Lyla, who still didn't understand what was going on.

"Miss Lyla, the whole situation is just as I said. It's Miss Irene who is forcing me to do this and there is no relationship between us because I only love my sister and no one," he explained, placing the blame on Irene, who complained again with a shout.

While Lyla finally understood what was going on and became relieved. Just now she thought Li Wei rejected to marry her because of Irene, but after hearing him, she understood it was just Irene who was pulling a prank.

Thinking of this, Lyla felt annoyed because she treated Irene as her little sister, yet she made her think she was rejected because of her.

"Airin! Your jokes are too much," she shouted in displeasure, calling Irene's nickname and looking at her with annoyed face.

Irene knew what she did, but she has a reason for it, so she didn't care too much about her annoyed face and apologized with a cheeky tone.

"Lyla, I knew I did something wrong, but you will forgive your cute Airin, right? Right?" she asked as she hugged Lyla with a cute pitiful face.

Irene was 19 years old while Lyla was 22, because of this they both treated each other as sisters and were very close just like real siblings.

Not to mention Lyla's height is 5 feet 8 inches while Irene is only 5 feet 2 inches, so they fit perfectly in the role of big sister and a cute little sister.

And as long as there is a cute little sister, no one will blame them, and the same was for Lyla who became frustrated watching her cute pitiful look.

"Airin! You are not allowed to joke like this again," she scolded, pinching Irene's cheeks tightly with a strict look just like a big sister.

While In response, Irene sulked at her and nodded unwillingly.

"Okay, I will not joke like this, Lyla, so can you please release my cute cheeks?" she replied with annoyance as she was getting treated like a kid.

When suddenly she remembered about the forgotten person in the room.

It was none other than Li Wei who was looking at these sisters with a speechless expression, wondering when he can go home.

"Ah! Lyla! Look what you did, our secret relationship is exposed," Irene exclaimed with an anxious look, trying to cover her body and face with shyness.

Watching her like this, Lyla almost shouted in anger but managed to keep her calm as she looked at Li Wei, wanting to explain the misunderstanding that Irene was causing.

"Miss Lyla, you don't need to explain. I have been babysitting her for two days, and I know it's very hard," Li Wei stated with an exhausted face before she could say anything.

But to his statement Lyla agreed without hesitation.

"Yes, it's really hard to babysit her and not to let her cause any trouble just for a day," Lyla replied with a tired tone, making Irene pout at her in annoyance.

"Hey, you two, stop badmouthing me. Also, I am not a kid which you are both babysitting," Irene complained, however, no one cared about it.

"Li Wei, can you explain what's going on here? How did you become so powerful, and how did you meet Airin?" Lyla questioned with a frown.

To her, Irene's love relationship was important for her so she didn't care about these questions at first, but now there was no such thing, so she could ask this while also wasting the time.

But how could Irene fail to see through her, so she suggested explaining everything on the way to the villa.

To which Lyla agreed unwillingly as she has no choice but to listen to the devils' whisper.

Li Wei too agreed with this as he wanted to go home to relax, so just as Irene suggested, he explained everything on the way to the villa, making Lyla shocked as she finally knew he is Lucifer and how did he meet with Irene.

Later she asked a lot of questions, but Li Wei just gave the same excuses that he gave to Irene. The whole conversation was on telepathy, so no one noticed even when they are walking on the streets.

They could've used the teleportation or other ways, but it might alert the old foggy Lucius, so they chose to walk back and finally arrived at the villa where they were greeted by Li Xin and others who became shocked after seeing Lyla.

However, Li Wei immediately explained about her class while sending Lyla to choose her room with Irene as he saw they wanted to have a talk alone.

He didn't care much about that and after sending them away, he explained what tricks Irene pulled off to kidnap her, making Li Xin and others sunned and speechless.

Just as he was explaining them, Lyla arrived in Irene's room and looked at her with a frown.

"Airin, why are you exposing your secrets like this? Do you know what will happen if someone found out about this?" she inquired with worry.

But Irene didn't care and took a seat on a sofa as she beckoned Lyla to sit beside her.

"Lyla, the first thing is he is a lot overpowered and has many secrets that even I couldn't see through, not to mention the comfortable feeling he gives me is a little similar to high-level spirits."

"Also, one more thing, when I was sparring with him today, I suppressed my level to 60; however, I still needed to use more than ten percent of strength to beat him," Irene explained, making Lyla dumfounded as she was the one who helped her increases her spirit attributes and knows how much her real strength is.

"Airin, you must be mistaken. There is no way you will need that much strength," Lyla denied her instantly.

However, Irene's next words made her think otherwise.

"Lyla, he is Lucifer who wiped out two monsters stampedes, single-handedly," Irene stated with a deep expression.

Hearing this, Lyla wasn't able to deny it anymore and became silent for a moment.

"Airin, if you are doing this, then are you trying to pull him on our side or are you planning something else?" Lyla asked with a serious expression after watching her deep look.

Irene might be a mischievous girl, but she didn't do things just for fun always, sometimes she used her brain for other things, but only sometimes, and now she might be doing this, at least Lyla hoped that she is using her brain.
