"Anna? Mona? Are you alright? I saw on the internet that there was......Lex?" Marisa said, stunned

"Monica! Good to see you again!" Lex said as he hugged her.

Although Lex wasn't the most friendly person, he still considered the members of the Fellowship his friends.

After all, they adventured together on and off for 2 years during the 3rd cycle.

"Over here!" Mona said, guiding Saintess to the area where they were treating Phoebe and Teddy, or Aragorn as Lex knew him.

While Marisa struggled daily using her magics to keep them alive, Saintess healed them in moments.

"Saintess? What are you doing here? If you're here.. Lex..." Phoebe ran out and hugged him, and Teddy gave him a bearhug.

They sat around and caught up on what's been happening, how they were framed and persecuted, what happened to Jasmine.

Late that night, Lex and Anna were kissing naked and they started making out.

"No! Don't! I'm not a lesbian! Come on, Lex! This is my body. I would fuck you, but a woman? Even one as beautiful as her?" Heather complained

But though she complained, she was intrigued by the pleasure she was feeling.

Her soul trembled as Lex entered Anna's pussy

"Oh yeah, of yeah... so good" Heather moaned after a while.

After the first mutual orgasm, they started dual cultivating.

"Aaah.. aahh what is this? I'm cumming again!" Heather moaned

"You feel different Lex" Anna said

"I know. I'm having a hard time.....oh!" Lex said

"What is it?" Anna asked

"I forgot. This is not my body!" Lex said

"It... I thought that was a new ability of yours" Anna said

"No... this.. this is Heather's body. I trained her myself in the tower, so I know her new abilities" Lex said

"You..trained her.. like me?" Anna asked, feeling sour

"No! No. I didn't fuck her.  I didn't even train her in swordfighting. She wanted abilities to fight back against the Olympians. I had a few Easter Eggs, like the ones Scum and Mona ate, so I gave her one" Lex explained

"Do.. do you have any left?" Anna asked

"I had many... but with my original body" Lex said

"So... what now?" Anna asked

"Let's dual cultivate anyway. I'll return her body in the morning. I want to smoothen her pathways as well as help you" Lex said

--

They spent the night dual cultivating and opened their eyes in the morning

"I will return this body now. But remember, I am here ok? We can communicate through the shadow clones, or if Heather permits, through her body again" Lex said

"Ok. As long as you're around, I feel safe" she said

They kissed and Anna felt the familiar cock inside her shrink.

Lex's chest started to push against her breasts before she realized a soft pair of breasts were pressing against hers.

"Um... you can let me go now" Heather said

"Oh... sorry" Anna said, getting of her lap

"I tried to talk to Lex in my head all night. But apparently he can't hear me" Heather said, frustrated

"You.... you saw what we did?" Anna asked in shock

"Saw it? I experienced the whole thing!" Heather replied

"Well, this is embarrassing" Anna said, quickly getting dressed

"We don't have to be so awkward to each other. While I may not have been Lex's lover in the tower, I do feel close to him too" Heather said

"You do? Um... There's so many things..." Anna said

Selene appeared from the shadows and interrupted

"Lex says he will leave for the other room. You both can talk in private" she said before disappearing into the shadows again.

"Anna, do you have an extra toothbrush? I think I ate something funny" Heather said

"Sure. I didn't want to say anything to Lex last night because I missed him so. But your breath stinks. It's as if you ate a dick or something" Anna said

--

Lex stood in the sewers which the group was using as a living area.

Aragorn and Phoebe were training barehanded

They had lost their swords and this was all they could do.

Lex had dimension rings in dimension rings, full of treasures and weapons from the tower

He had them here, on his hand, but they were as intangible as him.

He suddenly wondered, if his invisible and intangible form could interact with his shadows, his dimension rings were space magic. 

Space was also another non tangible concept which is hard to visualize physically

Could his rings react to the physical world?

He extracted 2 swords, both from the 95th floor, and they both suddenly appeared next to his sparring friends

"What's that? Swords? Is that you Lex?" Phoebe asked

Morrigan suddenly appeared.

"My master says these are for you. He doesn't know their names as he cannot access his stats page, but they are from the 95th floor" she said.

Both Phoebe and Aragorn chose a sword and picked them up happily as they used it in their spar.

"What's going on?" Anna asked as she walked out dressed with Heather

"Lex gave us these swords!" Aragorn said

"My master just discovered he can interact with the world with his dimension rings" Morrigan said

"Really? Anna said

"Master says hold out your hands Anna" Morrigan instructed

She followed and something appeared in her hand

"What's this?" Anna asked

"That's one of the Easter Eggs. I've seen it before when I was selecting my abilities. I guess the rest were too ugly you might not eat it" Heather said.

Heather was right. At least this egg looked like an onion. The rest looked dubious, as one looked like a severed pickled penis, the other like a worm, another like a skull of a squirrel, another like a rock and so on.

Anna nodded remembering that Lex promised her one of these Easter Eggs

So she thanked Lex and entered her room to eat it.

Heather entered as a precaution. 

Lex started pondering

He didn't understand what happened. Why was he intangible and invisible?

Was it because sabotaged the tower? Or was it more likely because he absorbed the void energy?

But how can he interact with the shadows and space but not the physical? How come he still has a shadow?

Now he was a creature of the void and shadow.

He checked his dantian and heart. They no longer absorbed mana or chi. He wondered if things changed in the atmosphere, maybe because of the tower's collapse, or was it just him?

 In his new form, Lex no longer needed to use energy, or chi, or mana to summon shadow clones. It just seem they were always there when there are shadows.

Even before he rescued Anna and Mona, once he realized his shadow clones are already and always with him, he sent them out to look for Jasmine.

This had become his habit in the tower.

If there is no mana cost, he might as well have his total contingent

With thousands of them out there, there was bound to be news.

One of them contacted him telepathically 

He disappeared into the shadows and appeared in the Olympus Guild HQ
