The Innkeeper

Chapter 1164  Don't forget

A depressed Lex swirled a drink in his glass aimlessly. He had been sitting in this bar for hours. Last night he had snuck into the William family mansion, and seen for himself that the head of the family had changed.

That left Lex feeling a wave of disappointment - but for unexpected reasons. He was not as much disappointed about the fact that Belle wasn't here as much as how easy it was to infiltrate the mansion.

Even though there were dozens of earth immortals there, all Lex had to do was hide inside the thoughts of one of the servants and no one detected him. Moreover, although he saw a bunch of earth immortals, which was impressive considering that the William family had just suffered a major loss where many of their strongest died, he was disappointed by how weak the family was.

Was this it? Was this the powerful and mighty force that had pressured his family? This was the force, in name, which had kidnapped his sisters and held them against their will?

Lex was hoping that they would be stronger. That he would be intimidated by them. That they would present as a formidable challenge that he had to be careful around.

But honestly it was not impressive at all. Lex had every bit of confidence that as soon as he became an Immortal he could take on this entire family himself, excluding William who was a Heavenly Immortal.

But considering the fact that he hardly took part in family matters, he didn't count.

But to be fair, Lex himself was very strong. Logically he knew it. And logically, he also knew that it wasn't this family who had done everything against him and his siblings, it was his grandfather. But that didn't erase the bitterness.

He felt no familial connection to these people, and quite frankly, after testing out cool last names like Dragonsbane and Amore, Lex didn't feel so attached to his own last name either. Maybe one day he'd change it. For now, he just wanted to sulk in this bar.

He was hoping Belle would return, but she didn't. Eventually, Lex rented a room for himself and began working on something else.

One of the most important parts of his plan for revenge depended on him finding Damien. It was not impossible, since they were blood relatives. He could use his own blood to trace him - theoretically.

He could do the same to find Belle and Liz, but since he had never used the technique before, it would take him some time to master and comprehend its use properly. Fortunately for him, he had the time to spare.

It took three more days before the Inn finally connected to Pangaea, and this time not only did Belle not return, but Lex still could not find the reason for her departure either.

It was fine. Lex was ready to move on.

But using the technique to find blood relatives could not be used on Pangaea, as the other members of the Williams family would attract the attention of his technique. He teleported to the Inn, and then to another random planet before he started to use the technique.

Finding Liz and Belle would also serve as practice for finding Damien, since the technique was not so easy in the first place. Considering the fact that he was searching for relatives on an intergalactic scale, using the technique was a burden even for Lex.

Then using it to find people who were actively hiding somehow, such as Liz and Damien was even harder.

But with some guidance from Pel, and his own high comprehension, Lex quickly put the technique to work. This was actually a technique that worked in conjunction with Glyphs, as it once again was an ability that dragons highly valued.

Dragons, as extremely virile creatures, had many offspring, but not all of them were born as full dragons. Sometimes, it was only later that their offspring evolved into dragons after purifying their bloodline.

When such a thing happened, dragons used this technique to locate their ancestors or descendants across realms.

As Lex's Domination slowly channeled into the Glyph, a projection of the galaxy Lex was in slowly appeared around him, before it began expanding outwards. Lex's energy reserves began to drop rapidly, but he could sustain this for a few minutes.

More galaxies appeared around him, and in those galaxies Lex began to detect various pulls. Anyone who was even remotely related to him began to react to this technique, but considering how large the William family was, he wasn't surprised to find out he was technically related to a lot of people across the galaxies. That didn't matter, as he was only looking for specific people.

He would know when he found them due to the strength of the pull he would feel. But his energy kept dwindling without any results.

Just as Lex began to feel like this attempt would be a failure, he finally got a significantly strong reaction. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

He couldn't say for certain who the reaction was from, but for the reaction to be strong enough, the relation also had to be close enough. He was certain it was one of his sisters. Now, as he looked at the projection, he just had to find out what galaxy this was, and what planet within that galaxy.

"Lex, I know you're busy. I just thought I'd remind you that the Midnight Games are about to begin soon," said Mary suddenly.

"Oh don't worry, I haven't forgotten," Lex said as he teleported back to the Inn. How could he forget?

He planned on using every tool available to him to hunt down Damien and everyone involved. The Midnight Games, organized by the Midnight Inn, was one of the hallmarks of the Inn.

It would be grand, and so naturally he would use it to set up the board for what he was planning, and gather as much information as possible.

Then Lex went to the Emporium. This time he would teleport directly to the planet he had discovered from there since he didn't want to waste time. He could feel that his revenge could not wait for long. Trouble was brewing.
