Lex raised an eyebrow. He'd anticipated that Mary would want to make a grand entrance. A couple of days ago, when he used the 1000 MT to pay for her to have her own projection capabilities, he was surprised to find that she hid herself in his office, so he kind of saw it coming. Even so, he had no idea that people who have this big a reaction to her.
When he saw her, she only appeared normal to him. He saw none of the presence or allure of a Dao Lord that everyone else was gushing about. He wondered if being the System host made him uniquely immune to her presence.
Lex had asked Mary about why unlocking her projection had been so expensive at the time. After all, 1000 MT was not a small amount of money. He could have done incredible things with so much MT, for example, go crazy in the token shop. Mary had no idea at the time.
