She tried to act calm as she followed Ryker onto the aerial craft, but when she stepped inside, she was totally blown away by the interior.

The decor was not only luxurious, but every corner oozed high–tech vibes. The seats were soft and comfortable, automatically adjusting to fit each passenger’s body, like they were custom–made for everyone.

The console was covered in buttons and displays, all glowing with a cold light that made Lexie even more curious about this aerial craft.

Keon caught Lexie’s look of amazement and flashed a smug grin “Pretty cool, right? This aerial craft was custom–built just for me. It’s the only one of its kind on Dophi Planet. If you like i Lex, I can give it to you.”

“Thanks, but just keep it. I don’t even know how to fly one,” Lexie replied.

Keon said, “Lex, it’s fully autonomous. Just punch in where you want to go, and it’ll get you there, no piloting needed.

“And that’s not all. I even hooked it up with a spatial button, the kind you usually only see on mechs. Once you arrive, just hit the button, and the aerial craft gets sucked right into it in a second, so you never have to stress about parking.”

Honestly, Lexie was tempted after hearing Keon’s offer.

Still, after a moment, she shook her head and turned him down.

After all, she had promised Ryker she’d help his brother for free

She couldn’t just receive anything from Keon just because he was rich. That’d be way too shameless to her.

Hearing Lexie turned him down, Keon didn’t push it. Unconsciously, his eyes lingered on her, burning with a new intensity.

‘She’s seriously intriguing,‘ Keon thought.

With all his money and power, Keon had once gotten a glimpse of Lilith through the glass of a sterile pod. But even then, Lilith never made his heart race the way Lexie did.

That was why the moment he saw Lex, he found himself thinking, ‘Is she really just a bot?‘

No matter how he looked at her, she was nothing like a bot. She felt completely real, like any other female.

But without any real proof, he couldn’t just jump to conclusions

Keon hid the glint in his eyes, playing it cool as they headed to the restaurant. All the while, he kept dropping hints and chatting Lex up, trying to get closer without being obvious.

Keon was such a smooth talker that before Lexie knew it, it felt like they’d known each other forever.

She’d been a bit intimidated by him at first, but once they reach the restaurant, Lexie started to really warm up to Keon.

Watching Lexie and Keon walk ahead, laughing and chatting like old friends, Ryker couldn’t help but chuckle to himself.

‘Keon’s a real smooth operator. He could probably convince anyone that black is white, especially someone as innocent as Lex, Ryker thought.

The restaurant Keon brought them to was one of the hottest spas on Dophi Planet. The prices were sky–high, but the real draw was getting to see artificial female bots in person while dining.

Lexie was super curious about artificial female bots in this world She’d seen plenty of pictures on Interstellar Net, but she’d never actually seen one up close before.

Now that she finally had the chance to see some face–to–face, Leie couldn’t help but feel a rush of excitement.

With Keon leading the way, when Lexie finally came face–to–face with an artificial female bot, she felt a chill run down her

spine.

The reason? The artificial female bots were nothing like she’d piured in her mind.

Honestly, the one standing in front of her was gorgeous, but her kin was so pale that it was almost creepy.

And that wasn’t all. Her eyes were totally lifeless, and her movements were stiff and weird, like a puppet on strings.

And when guests got close, they’d just collapse onto them, like a at with no bones.

On top of that, these artificial female bots had zero intelligence. If you asked them anything, they’d just spit out a stiff, mechanical reply, like they were programmed to say only one thing.

Trying to talk to them was pointless. They were so dumb that they couldn’t sense even a trace of real thought behind those

answers.

Compared to Lexie, these artificial female bots were worlds apart. With such a massive gap, Lexie couldn’t figure out how Austin and Arthur hadn’t noticed she was an actual female.

‘Is it really just because of the Clyssia Virus?‘ she wondered.

While Lex was still reeling from all these thoughts, Keon greeted someone behind her with a friendly tone.

Lexie turned toward the voice and instantly spotted a handsome guy and a stunning girl standing together.

They looked like they were made for each other, both stunning and totally in sync.

But Lexie couldn’t help but wonder, ‘Weren’t females supposed to have gone extinct in the Aetherion Interstellar Zone a long time ago? So where did this beautiful female come from?

‘She’s nothing like what Dr. Cole described. How is she able to live out here under the open sky, instead of being locked away in a sterile pod?‘

Lexie was staring so hard that Keon had to wave his hand in front of her face.

He grinned, “Lex, what are you looking at?”

“Keon, who is that female? How is she so gorgeous?” Lex exclaimed.

Keon explained, “Oh, that’s Luna Young. She’s my friend Xander Lewis’s artificial female bot. Compared to the low–tier bots in this restaurant, Luna is top–class.

“Honestly, before you came along, Lex, Luna was the most advanced artificial female bot I’d ever seen.”

“So you’re saying the bots here are all low–tier, but Luna’s like, super high–tier?” Lex asked, her curiosity shining through.

“Yeah. Lex, you seriously don’t know about this stuff?” Keon replied.

Lexie scratched her head, feeling a bit embarrassed with Keon looking at her like that.

She said, “Honestly, ever since I woke up, I’ve been stuck out in the middle of nowhere on Dora Planet. I’ve never even left before.

“So yeah, I don’t really know much about what’s normal out here But now that you’ve explained it, I totally get it

“No wonder I felt so different from those bots in the restaurant.

“Oh, that explains it. I was wondering why you seemed so uneasy since we got here. So this is what’s been bugging you?” Keon said, finally connecting the dots.

Lexie caught Keon’s thoughtful look and just smiled awkwardly ack at him.

While they were chatting, Luna and her master, Xander, had already settled in at a nearby table.

As soon as Xander sat down, his eyes immediately locked onto Lexie, curiosity written all over his face.

His stare was so obvious and intense that Lexie felt her cheeks heat up.
