Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 2273

Mike had, of course, seen the ID picture from the alternate world array because the person in the picture was himself.

Even if the two words somehow connected, how could the array have happened to link him with someone he associated with from the other side?

Unless… The array might naturally pull together the most closely connected people from both worlds.

When Lexie said so, Mike recalled the ID picture he'd received. His gaze sharpened slightly, and he suddenly proposed, "Maybe… I should meet him."

His sudden words threw Lexie off guard, and she confusedly asked, "Meet who? The alternate you?"

When Mike nodded, her expression instantly darkened. "I don't think you should."

They now knew that this alternate world was a parallel dimension of their own.

Though Lexie wasn't an expert on the rules of parallel worlds, her instincts warned her not to meet their alternate selves.

Two versions of the same person existing in one world was a glitch. If they actually met, who knew what kind of rules they would be breaking? Now that they knew nothing about the world's hidden rules, they had better stay put.

Mike knew all of this, too. Otherwise, he wouldn't have instinctively ducked during the livestream when the camera turned their way.

Yet, the same Mike, who'd been so cautious just moments ago, now seemed to have been possessed by some obsession.

"No. I have to meet him! I want to see what kind of pathetic alternate version of me he is without spiritual energy and mystic arts!"

As his close companion for three years, Lexie naturally sensed that something was off. Not just her, but Heston, who'd been listening quietly nearby, also looked over.

Before she could ask anything, the apartment doorbell rang.

They all thought it was Eddie and Macaron coming back. But before anyone could move, Mike was already on his feet and heading straight for the door.

He pulled it open, and everyone inside and outside froze.

Before she could finish the sentence, the Mike in front of her suddenly flashed a wild, feral look in his eyes. In the next second, he grabbed the knife from Heston's hand and lunged toward the version of himself lying on the floor.

"I'll kill you first!"

His ferocity came out of nowhere like he'd been possessed. Everyone froze and was too shocked to react in time.

Just as the knife was about to strike, a burst of light shot through the hallway, followed by the sudden appearance of two figures out of thin air.

The knife clattered to the floor, and Mike was slammed to the ground. A foot pinned him by the back and locked him in place.

Thalia stepped into view. Her eyes slowly swept over the two Mikes in the hallway and paused for a long time.

Frowning, she finally asked, "Alright… What's going on here?"
