Chapter 151: [Bonus Chapter] A True Genius
I had just been pretending to be clueless all along. It was an important part of my elaborate plan to deceive everyone. Just in case someone tried to spy on me.
I used my passive skills and abilities to carefully create a scenario that would work to my advantage. The fact that she had connections to a gangster was one of the reasons I selected her from the start.
I bet everything on the slight chance that her gangster boyfriend might make a drastic move against me.
If he didn\'t, I would simply complete my mission and go on with my life. However, he turned out to be an idiot, bringing dozens of his subordinates here, which was like sending me dozens of gifts for Christmas.
I was on the hunt for a lot of skill points and EXP experience, and what better way to do that than by taking down a gang? It\'s like the fast track to leveling up, but instead of XP potions, it involves bullets and bad guys.
My predictions were further validated when I spotted someone watching us from her apartment building. During that moment, I was using my Mind-Link on a bird to survey the area and discovered one of Elaine\'s ex-partner men.
Then, from her apartment, I controlled the speed of my car so he wouldn\'t lose me on road, and he could follow me back to the hotel.
Riding in a sports car, there was no way he could keep up with me if I sped up.
After arriving at the hotel, I approached him subtly without Elaine noticing. Then, I used my suggestion to control him.
That\'s right, I manipulated him into reporting my location and making him stall for time, which allowed me to carry out my plans with Elaine before their attack.
I wasn\'t scared at all to face them because I had planned for the worst-case scenario. I scoured the dark web for information about unconvicted criminals, drug pushers, and rapists in seoul who had committed heinous crimes.
Using my powers, I assembled six of them to be my disposable pawns. I chose them because they had it coming after all the crimes they have committed .
It was a win-win situation for me. Their deaths would earn me skill points, ensuring that nothing went to waste. Simultaneously, I was able to rid the world of individuals like them. I\'m not saying I\'m better than them, but I am more powerful, and that gives me the right to use them as I please. It was simply the natural order of things .
With them in place, I commanded them to get rooms one floor below mine, ensuring they remained within my Mind Link range. I also manipulated the hotel staff to provide the wrong floor and room number if someone inquired about me, all part of my meticulous plan.
"A true genius acts dumb before the finale," I chuckled to myself as I sipped wine from my glass.
As for the CCTV, I didn\'t have to worry about it because I had already accounted for it.
RING RING RING.
The hotel phone rang and grabbed my attention.
"Answer it," I told Elaine, who was now sitting on the bed.
She nodded and picked up the phone. She had heard the gunshots earlier, but I used my power to help calm her down.
"It\'s the hotel staff checking if we\'re okay," she answered before ending the call.
"What happened tonight?" Elaine asked, noticing that I had thrown something at the window a few moments ago. Little did she know that I used that daggers as a distraction, only to summon it back to me after breaking the window.
I was able to utilize and coordinate all my skills efficiently, primarily due to my intelligence.
"Elaine, do you want to be with me?" I asked her, shifting the conversation away from the recent events rather than answering her question directly.
"I.. I do," she answered.
"Then from now on, you\'re my woman," I declared as I walked towards her and leaned in for a kiss.

The incident at the hotel became breaking news within a matter of hours. The police had declared it a gang war, where dozens of people lost their lives. Fortunately, after reviewing the CCTV footage, it was confirmed that no civilians were harmed in the incident.
As for us, we were questioned by the police, but we simply denied any connection to it. They could only ask us questions and not enter our room, so I didn\'t have to worry about them finding any evidence against me.
"Babe, do you want to order breakfast?" Elaine asked, casually playing with her hair as she swirled her fingers around it. She does not look stressed out at all, even after learning that her ex had died, thanks to my manipulation of her memory.
"Yeah, I want some bacon and eggs," I replied with a smile.
"Alright, I\'ll take a shower after ordering the food," she responded.
