"Psychological Invisibility. That's a very excellent ability," Lex said sincerely. He thought of the 'Musician' Richard, and his ability to move freely on the Green Emerald without being discovered, feeling envious from the bottom of his heart.
Although Lex still wanted to ask what abilities Kardashian possessed, as this would be beneficial for future cooperation, it was clearly not the right time or place.
So he changed his tone and said, "You come aboard with me. Try to stay in my cabin and don't wander around freely. Most importantly, don't kill anyone! Don't kill anyone! Don't kill anyone!"
Important things must be said three times, hmm.
Kardashian looked at Lex with dissatisfaction: "I am only responsible for protecting you, but you have no right to interfere with my freedom."
"No, this is also part of the contract's terms, and you must fulfill it," Lex said, having anticipated this.
Kardashian's exotic and beautiful face clearly froze: "I don't remember agreeing to act according to your commands."
"You're right, but you promised to protect me. And protection, I believe, should include but not be limited to my life, my reputation, my property, my credibility, etc."
"Take your killing people, for example. If you kill people indiscriminately on the ship, you will attract attention and interference. What if the person investigating this matter is too powerful, powerful enough to expel you, or even hunt you?"
"Then if I am in danger, you won't be able to protect me in time. In that case, you would be violating your oath. So, Miss Kardashian, you don't have to follow my commands, but if I ask you to do something, you'd best consider it carefully."
Kardashian's beautiful lips parted slightly. She had not at all considered that the simple word 'protect' in the oath could extend to so many things.
Looking at Lex's annoying face, Kardashian snorted, offering no response, but from her expression, Lex felt that she would seriously consider every word he said.
Bang!
Suddenly, the Captain's Cabin door was pushed open, and Danitz walked in: "Rayleigh, did you find anything?"
Lex's eyes changed slightly. Kardashian was standing not far from him, and from this angle, Danitz should have seen everything. But the Boatswain ignored the exotic beauty standing nearby, which relieved Lex, knowing that Kardashian had already used 'Psychological Invisibility'.
Lex jumped up and shook his head: "Nothing found, what about you?"
Danitz sighed: "Neither did we. Jodeson thinks this was likely done by an 'Instigator'. Damn it, I hate those insidious villains who only talk big but don't do anything."
Lex coughed dryly, carefully glanced at Kardashian, and only felt slightly relieved when he saw that the alluring woman's face was expressionless and she had no reaction to Danitz's words.
He worried that if Danitz continued to speak so unrestrainedly, it might trigger Kardashian's murderous intent, so he said: "Let's go back. There's no benefit in staying here any longer."
Danitz looked around and nodded in agreement.
They returned to the Golden Dream. Lex quickly led Kardashian back to his room. As soon as he settled the strange woman, Lex received a notification that Edwina was waiting for him in the Captain's Cabin.
Pushing open the door to the Captain's Cabin, Lex saw the red-haired Helene. She was wearing the Iceberg Admiral's clothes, a shirt and vest paired with trousers, and with her somewhat neutral appearance, if she cut her hair short, she would look like a young, handsome gentleman.
"In two days, we will return to Sonia Island. Miss Helene plans to stay on Sonia Island for a while first."
Edwina looked at Lex, her eyes clear: "You also commissioned an Artisan to make items on the island, so I want you to protect Miss Helene when she disembarks."
Lex nodded and said to the red-haired Helene: "You'd best hide on the island for a while, let Tracy forget about you, or think you're dead. It will be safer to leave then."
"If you want to be even more secure, you can try cooperating with the Storm Church. You can provide information about Tracy to the Church. If you can help them apprehend the Admiral of Ailment, you might even receive a bounty."
A flicker of hesitation crossed the eyes of the vividly red-haired Helene. She seemed to have a certain fondness for Tracy, so she neither agreed nor refused, merely saying: "I want to be quiet for a while."
Lex shrugged and did not offer further advice.
The Iceberg Admiral casually remarked: "It's a pity I don't have the 'Spectator' ability. Otherwise, after Miss Helene disembarks, it would be better to psychologically suggest to everyone who has seen her to forget that Miss Helene was here."
Was the Captain worried that people on the ship might let slip information about Helene in bars or other public places, thereby allowing Tracy to find out?
Hmm, I don't have the 'Spectator' ability either.
However, the one in my room can definitely do it!
"Is there anything else, Captain? If not, I'll be going," Lex wanted to understand Kardashian's abilities as soon as possible. Seeing that Edwina had no other instructions, he took his leave.
He quickly returned to his room, pushed open the door, and Lex froze.
Kardashian was no longer in the room!
Immediately, Lex felt a chill down his spine, worried that the woman, who was still an evil entity, was wandering the ship and preying on unsuspecting pirates, or hiding inside someone's stomach, to burst out when needed.
Just then, Kardashian's voice came from under his bed: "I haven't left, and I won't kill anyone."
She's under the bed?
What is she doing hiding under the bed? She knows what I'm worried about. As expected of an 'Spectator'.
Lex turned around and, as usual, gently closed the door. He then saw a carpet of flesh and blood on his bed wriggle and emerge, then rotate and reassemble into Kardashian.
Lex saw her sitting on the edge of the bed, making no further movements. He picked up a chair and sat by the table, opening a notebook to make it look like he was about to record something.
After setting up his disguise, Lex asked: "What abilities do you possess? I need to understand what you can do so that we can cooperate in future actions."
Kardashian looked at him, and after a moment, said: "I am a 'Gatekeeper'. I can sense the entrance to the Underworld and command the undead within it. I have my own undead prison inside me, but currently, I don't have many 'prisoners' in my prison. I need time to collect them."
Lex nodded. Back in the underground temple in Damir Port, Kardashian had released undead to resist the divine punishment sent down by the Lord of Storms. At that time, she must have expended most of her undead.
"The undead prison within me provides a good environment for evil spirits to exist, and can also accommodate a certain number of soul bodies, the deceased, and natural spirits. These entities retain their unique abilities from when they were alive and are powerful helpers."
"The more of them there are, and the stronger their abilities, the stronger my power as a 'Gatekeeper' will be."
