"Zhuri, by the time you read this letter, I'm either killing Chinu Worms or on my way to kill Chinu Worms."
"I never imagined there could be so many varieties of Chinu Worms in the world."
"Aihao said you went through the same thing back then, but the Polar Ice Cap didn't belong to her yet. Every time, you would sneak nearby and hide while she went to steal worms and brought them back for you to fight."
"Oh my god, I can already picture it. It really sounds like a mother bird going out to hunt and returning to feed her chicks."
"By the way, did Aihao mention that all the Chinu Worms I kill are being charged to your bill?"
"At the price of live worms, I suggest you take a look at that bill. It's terrifying. You should prepare yourself mentally in advance."
—Your dear apprentice, Xunge
The morning after the letter was sent, Yu Xunge heard Zhuri's furious roar from downstairs while she was still asleep.
—"Didn't you say you were teaching for free? What's with this bill?!"
"Yeah, I'm teaching for free, but you have to cover the training materials, right? That's your apprentice!" Aihao replied with perfect justification.
"I'm giving her to you!"
"Too late. I told you to compensate me with one years ago. Who told you to keep her for yourself?"
Yu Xunge's bare feet rubbed anxiously against each other on the carpet.
What worried her most now was not Zhuri giving her to Aihao. She was worried Zhuri would transfer that bill onto her...
The next second, Yu Xunge, who was crouching by the railing and peeking downstairs through the gap, met those gray-blue eyes.
Zhuri: "I'm charging it to your account!"
Any admiration or sympathy was instantly tossed aside
