Bizarre Realm-Chapter 311 - 6: Stealing the Sky, Swapping the Sun! The Terrifying Mind Path! (Part 2)
"Exhausted, aren’t you?"
"I’ll go arrange a room for you to rest."
Shawn nodded slightly and thanked her, "Thank you. Just a guest room will do."
"Is there anything to eat?"
"I haven’t had dinner yet."
He sat casually on the sofa as if it were his own home, and soon the hostess came over with a plate of food, asking warmly, "Do you need a bath?"
"You can also give me your change of clothes."
"No need to be polite."
"Just treat this place as your own home."
Shawn shook his head slightly and said, "No, just having something to eat is fine."
"You can go about your own business."
This was a typical middle-class family, and the house was well decorated, likely a recently purchased single-family home. After eating, Shawn went to the balcony, gazing at the distant city center. On the second floor of the neighboring villa, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl was curiously observing him. From a short distance, she asked, "Are you a relative of Mrs. Lyle?"
"How come I’ve never seen you before?"
Shawn smiled and greeted her, calmly saying, "Yes. I’m her distant nephew, just arrived in Dorne City looking for a job."
The girl showed an ’oh, I see’ expression and quickly returned inside her room after hearing her mother call for her, playfully sticking out her tongue.
The power of the Mind Path is truly terrifying.
Just a little mind suggestion, a slight alteration of memory, and Shawn could instantly arrange a new identity for himself.
A few minutes later, the hostess came over with a cup of black tea, placing it on the tea table on the balcony, enthusiastically saying, "The room is ready."
"You can rest now if you’re tired."
Shawn picked up the tea cup and took a sip, praising, "This tea is quite good."
"I’m leaving tomorrow."
He still didn’t have a suitable identity in the Realm of Reality, and Dorne City was currently lax on the outside but tense on the inside. Even the plainclothes police had Transcendents among them, so staying in a hotel was a bit inconvenient. Shawn had been a Night Watcher before and knew that the strictest checks on outsiders by the Night Watch were at hotels. So simply staying at someone else’s house was undoubtedly the most hassle-free way. He planted a mind suggestion in the hostess that a distant nephew was staying for a night and needed to be well-treated, then brazenly spent the night in a stranger’s home.
The next day, when Shawn left, the hostess seemed to remember very little about the previous night, only that a distant relative had stayed over.
9:00 in the morning.
Shawn bought a kebab wrap near the commercial street, now priced at 9 Seths, 2 more than before, indicating that prices in the Realm of Reality had risen too. He strolled leisurely along the commercial street like a tourist out shopping. As if sensing something, Shawn quickly turned into an alley, and when he emerged again, he had become a handsome man with blond hair and blue eyes.
"Are there so many Night Watchers now?"
The Night Watcher team in Dorne City must have expanded several times over. In just two days, Shawn encountered more than twenty Transcendents, some of which were clearly wild Transcendents.
He used to be a Night Watcher and had ways to recognize his peers.
On a street outside the clock tower, Shawn saw a beautiful young woman, an employee at the bank across the street who lived near the corner of the office building by the clock tower. It was about five stories high, from where she could overlook the Night Watch Headquarters.
At dusk, Shawn waited at the intersection for the urban beauty to get off work. He smiled, reached out to stop her, his gaze deep, and calmly said, "Hello. I’m your boyfriend."
Upon hearing Shawn’s words, the urban beauty opened her mouth in surprise, eyes wide as she looked at him.
Yet the next second, she affectionately linked her arm with Shawn’s, saying, "Darling."
"What do you want for dinner?"
Shawn gently withdrew his arm, accustomed to the embrace of an Enchanting Demon, not fond of smaller ones, his gaze steady and politely saying, "Anything is fine."
"Keep me company for a walk around tonight."
The enthusiastic urban beauty agreed, "Sure. Darling."
An ordinary dinner.
The cooking was average.
After dusk, Shawn let the urban beauty link his arm, strolling leisurely in the nearby streets. They appeared to be an intimately behaving couple, without attracting any attention even when occasionally encountering plainclothes officers. This was the Realm of Reality, where Shawn couldn’t use the Reconnaissance Demon Eye. The stealth defenses around the Night Watch Headquarters had clearly changed greatly. He quietly completed the recordings, making preparations for the next move.
Upon returning, Shawn noticed a burly woman seemingly heading home. She glanced at him once before leaving.
Chase-Rog.
The logistics department’s blacksmith for Investigators, a Transcendent of the Alchemy Path.
A talented individual!
Planning a poach move!
The day quickly passed, and Shawn identified his target through reconnaissance from the previous day.
A logistics department staff member.
He would leave through the side door of the Night Watch Headquarters after work, a time when there wouldn’t be many people, facilitating Shawn’s next step. In fact, he could also transform into someone to slip in, but that required him to be very familiar with one person, and the Night Watch Headquarters had many ways to break the Transformation Spell.
For safety, it’s still prudent to use Plan B.
6:30 in the evening.
Shawn’s figure abruptly appeared behind a logistics staff named Jody, and he very politely said, "Hello." 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
"I’d like to borrow your body for a while."
—Dominate Humans.
In an instant, Shawn’s will controlled his mind.
—Mind Exchange (6th-level Spell)!
When Shawn’s figure emerged again, his body had already turned into this man named ’Jody’.
—"Mind Exchange (6th-level Spell): You can attempt to occupy a living being’s body, forcing your mind (soul) into its body while its mind goes into yours.
You can target any creature whose Extraordinary Level does not surpass yours. Unless the target’s will successfully saves, you will occupy its body, hosting its mind in your body. You can return your mind to your own body at any time, which also sends the subject’s mind back to its body, ending this superpower.
You will gain the physical attributes and racial talents of the other while retaining your casting level. The spell’s duration is 10 minutes per Extraordinary Level."
This is one of the abnormal abilities of the Mind Path.
For example, if you are a 10th-level human mind warlock, casting "Mind Exchange" on a 1st-level goblin warrior, you would occupy the goblin’s body, becoming a 10th-level goblin mind warlock, while the other occupies your body, becoming a 1st-level human warrior.
Now, Shawn occupied the other person’s body. Strength, agility, and constitution decreased, using the other person’s physical attributes, but other inner attributes had no change.
As for Shawn’s original body, he used a control spell to fix it in a safe place.
After exchanging bodies, control the other.
That man named Jody was just an ordinary staff member, completely incapable of resisting Shawn’s Mind Domination. Upon releasing the spell effect, Shawn’s soul mind would instantly return to his own body while the original soul mind of this body also returned.
Everything went smoothly.
Shawn directly entered the Night Watch Headquarters using Jody’s body, with everyone he encountered along the way none the wiser. As long as he carefully avoided those high-insight investigators, ordinary Night Watchers could hardly perceive anything unusual.
"Jody? Haven’t you clocked out?" another logistics department worker greeted him.
Shawn responded, mimicking the voice of the body’s original owner, "I left something in the office."
The two passed by each other.
The other person didn’t notice a thing, since this body was originally Jody’s, only with a different soul controlling it.
Shawn’s only goal—Sealed Object No. 1!
