As soon as Kirou logged in, he realized that he was back in the hut created by his clones. Before he could even get off of the bed, he noticed that he had a few unread messages from the system. This surprised Kirou as he didn't recall seeing those messages before he logged out earlier. Since he had the time, Kirou decided to check out the messages that he received.

Having spoken up to this point, the trio was pretty much informed on Kirou's proposal and now all that was left was for them to think it over on their own. Kirou wasn't in a rush to receive their answers so he gave them some time to think it over.After everyone enjoyed another cup of tea, Kirou and the rest decided to end their break and started heading back to the surface. The girls had to go back to refining medicine and finding herbs to do so. As for the guys, Mistaken Fox had to go back and join his Stone Axe Minotaur in digging while Kirou had a construction project of his own.The five players took a little over ten minutes to get back to the surface. By the time they got to the top, the group was greeted by the sight of all the NPCs resting. It looked like the former bandits were taking rests in shifts, giving those still digging more space to work and to ensure that the digging never truly stopped for too long.
Jackson looked at Kirou with an appreciative smile and gave him a thumbs-up before he entered the stone cottage himself. While Jackson did this, other members of his squad that were now on their break decided to check out the cottage as well. Seeing all of those NPCs being curious, a small smile formed on Kirou's face as he went over to another large dirt pile. Although he still had a few piles of bricks left, Kirou decided to make some more for another project. This time, Kirou summoned out his other pets to help. When both Tank and Shadow Arachne materialized next to him, both admittedly looked at Kirou with slightly confused expressions. Besides them, both Navi and Reya were now looking at Kirou with curiosity written over both of their faces. Kirou caught a glimpse of this from the corner of his eyes but he acted ignorant of the fact as he spoke to both of his pets. Kirou gave Tank a shov
Wang Xu was currently standing by one of the double doors in the train, thinking over what had just happened. Although he wasn't a stranger to being spied upon, that was only in situations when people were aware of who he was and the kind of job that he may be on at the time. In this case, Wang Xu was positive that he fits neither category at the moment so that must mean that those gazes on him were hostile for some other reason.And it was at this point that he remembered that besides those four hostile gazes, there were another two that he was aware of but he wasn't able to find before he had to leave. Thinking back on it, while he had no idea who the hostile gazes belonged to, he had a curious suspicion as to whom the remaining two neutral gazes belonged to. That being said, this wasn't all that important to Wang Xu at the moment so he'll address it if he has time at a later date.With those thoughts now behind him, Wang Xu removed a cert
It was roughly about five in the evening when Wang Xu got off work. After heading back to the security post and changing back into his casual clothes, he was now heading out of the Sanming Building. As soon as he made it to the entrance, he noticed someone was standing by the door, reading something on their phone.Standing at the entrance was a bespectacled woman wearing a beige pants suit with little makeup on. She had her brown hair done up in a braid that reached just below her shoulders. Although her looks weren't the best from what he was used to seeing in the gaming studio, looking at her figure that topped off at about 165cm or so gave Wang Xu the impression that she possessed her own unique charm that she's used to hiding from others. That being said, these were just his own personal thoughts on the matter.The reason that Wang Xu paid attention to this person was the fact that he remembered feeling this person's gaze earlier that d
Shirona Yui tried her best to maintain control over her emotions but her current expression gave her away. That said, she didn't allow her expression to get any further out of hand as she coughed a few times to regain her composure.Wang Xu stared at her blushing expression for a few moments, enjoying the interesting sights before him. This went on until Shirona Yui finally regained control over her emotions, prompting him to release a sigh over the short time he was able to enjoy the view.Following that, both sides descended in silence for a few minutes, each glancing at the other every once in a while, before the waiter returned with a trolly with their dinner on it. Both sides watched as the waiter filled the table with their respective orders.Just as the waiter was finished and was about to leave, Shirona Yui noticed a few extra dishes were placed on the table. She couldn't help but speak at this moment as she poin
With Shirona Yui now thoroughly terrified out of her mind, practically questioning her life choices up until this point, Wang Xu allowed his predatory-like stare to fade away, relieving the pressure that was weighing down on the clueless Department Head. With the removal of the pressure on her, Shirona Yui slowly awoke from that spiral of negative thoughts going on in her mind.After a few minutes of sobering up, she was now able to work up the courage to stare at the man sitting across from her. In her eyes, all she was was a simple man who was now emptying the remainder of the contents within the glass from earlier. In her mind, however, the image of a beast kept forming and dissipating as she stared at Wang Xu.Ignoring the current expression on her face, Wang Xu spoke up with a light tone in his voice, "Now that you have confirmed your thoughts, what plans do you have now, Department Head Shirona?"This was the secon
While waiting for the train to get to their destination and keeping a mental note on how to deal with those people that gazed at him with hostile intentions, Wang Xu decided to make some small talk with Shirona Yui to pass the time."Would you like to hear the answers to your earlier questions now, Department Head Shirona?" As Wang Xu spoke, he retrieved a pair of gloves from his pocket.Hearing his words prompted Shirona Yui to immediately look up from her phone and stare at Wang Xu. She was checking to see if he was being serious with his words or just messing with him.Not being able to sense any falsehood in his expression, she hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Are you sure? This isn't really the best place for us to have such a conversation, as I'm quite sure that you are aware, Security Guard Wang."Wang Xu just shrugged before placing the pair of gloves in her hands as he spoke up, "As
There was a solemn expression on Shirona Yui's face after the somewhat sudden appearance of the group standing before her. A simple glance was all it took for Wang Xu to realize that not only did she know this group, but there was also a bit of history between them as well.With this bit of information in mind, Wang Xu wisely chose to keep quiet and observe everyone present. Besides that, he was also scanning the area for possible escape routes for when the need arises.In a flat tone, Shirona Yui spoke up while addressing the woman now standing out from the group, "I don't think that we're close enough for me to take a stroll with you and your group. Now tell me, why should I be going with you, Miss Katsuji Natsume?"Before she could speak, one of the men in the group behind the recently identified 'Katsuji Natsume' stepped forward with a chuckle. This caused a slight frown to form on her face but she kept quiet as the
