Eye System

Lex took Kano off and placed him in the inventory as it was very fatigued and also Lex thought that during the day it would only draw unwanted attention to him.

[In the daytime I am Lex black the trashy orphan who secretly cultivates, and at night I am Ashura the awesome Voltac] he narrates in his mind jokingly.

Walking around, Lex found that he didn't have any money after giving it all to the orphanage and didn't have a place to stay.

[I might as well cultivate and train inside the orphanage, so I can train while looking out for the orphanage at the same time] he decides.

The slim youth wearing ripped rags and had long white hair that was tied up behind his head in a short ponytail walked through the streets towards the orphanage

The sun was beginning to rise and dawn struck.

Lex knew exactly where the orphanage was due to his Soul Pet being there, but also felt that when his Soul Pet was out of his body, his overall power was lowered and felt as though there was something missing from within him.

Lex could feel that his demonic side was dormant and found that it did have an impact on his decision making and ruthlessness and felt that without it he was still ignorant and needed his evil side to be strong.

He noticed that everything needs to be balanced and if one thing beats the other he is weakened or loses control.

Knowing exactly where the orphanage was due to having left his pet there, Lex heads in that direction knowing that as the sun rises Max Ford will be out again looking for his robes like a madman.

Entering the orphanage similar to before the old woman jumps up with her knife but seeing Lex, she calmed down and seemed to recognise him.

"You are back, I thought you had left the money then ran away," she says as she calms down and sat back in her chair.

"What the hell how did you know it was me," screams Lex in surprise.

When he came in before he had just completed a mission and had Kano on and was hoping to keep his identity secret and be able to have the identity of both Lex and Ashura.

"Calm down, I know how to keep a secret, but if even me an old lady can notice, imagine the strong levellers in the inner or core parts of the country," says the woman with a smile.

Looking into her eyes, Lex could see she wasn't as simple as she seemed and was wondering whether the nervous old woman with the knife was all an act.

Her eyes showed him an experienced killer, but at the same time were full of loneliness and regret.

Intimidated by her calm gaze, Lex sat on the ground in front of her chair.

"I supply money by completing missions at night, you teach me," states Lex seriously.

His intuition told him that the old lady before him was not normal and should have valuable and profound knowledge.

"What could an old lady like me possibly teach you," she says to him trying to gauge just how much this youth knew.

"You can stop pretending, the same way you know who I am, I can also tell from your eyes that you aren't simple" he replies confidently.

As he said this he finally understood why he understood her and could understand others without knowing them was due to looking into their eyes.

Like the system had told him is that the eyes are the centre of emotion and nobody can hide the truth in their eyes, but in the same way, it is the eyes that hold the most power.

{Ding, hosts realisation and understanding about eyes has activated the Eye Knowledge stat and as it increases your Eye Powers get stronger as well as your ability to read eyes and now your Eye Knowledge is at LVL 1} announces the system.

As he heard this he received the confirmation he needed that his theory was right.

"Let me tell you a short story and it may give you a better idea about life," says the woman to the boy who stood before her with his black eyes glued on to her attentively.

"Well I will begin, there was once a young girl who was born into the royal family, but because she was born from a maid after an affair, the whole royal family mistreated her and saw her as a curse and eventually kicked her from the family.

The girl had a very high affinity with energy and decided she would get strong enough to defeat the royal family and get her revenge for how they treated her.

She went through long adventures around the continent and eventually met a group of other talented and powerful youths who all had the same idea and wanted to overthrow the royals, but they knew it wasn't plausible with their small numbers.

So what they decided was to make an organisation that accepts missions and completes them and accepts people to work for them and when they reach a high enough LVL and Rank in the organisation they become close and loyal soldiers.

They committed atrocious acts and accepted any mission that came their way even immoral missions such as wiping out innocent villages. Eventually, their reputation resounded throughout the continent and they had a crest with a skull with two blades.

Eventually, the organisation grew so fast and was able to rival a country, but that same girl was now hundreds of years old and uncared for as spent her time in the same seat watching over poor mistreated orphans as her retribution and wasted her whole life without achieving anything.

Now she talking to a delusional boy who wants to be both a good, but willing to do anything in order to do so and one thing that girl learnt from her life is that there is no good or bad in this cruel and unfair world" she says to him.

"So you are hundreds of years old, was one of the founders of the Voltiac and were part of a royal family, and you called me a delusional boy" he exclaims in realisation.
