Himeko took a sip of coffee beside them, her face similarly full of smiles as she watched the scene.

She knew.

Her decision to invite Chen Mu aboard the train had been absolutely right.

PS: First chapter! It's live!!! Please send flowers! Reviews! Tips! Subscriptions!!! Thank you, everyone!!

"So amazing."

March 7th came over to Chen Mu and Pom-Pom.

Seeing the intimate way the two acted, an incredulous expression appeared on her face.

Without the slightest hesitation.

March 7th reached out, wanting to pat Pom-Pom on the head.

Pom-Pom hurriedly dodged aside and looked at March 7th warily, saying righteously, "Passenger March 7th, please do not lay hands on the conductor."

"Huh? Then why can Chen Mu do it but I can't? No matter what, I'm a cute girl, aren't I?!!"

March 7th looked utterly disbelieving.

Pom-Pom's tiny action had dealt her a devastating blow.

"That is because Pom-Pom does not resist Passenger Chen Mu. This has nothing to do with gender."

Pom-Pom spoke with a serious expression.

"...You don't resist Chen Mu, which means you resist me."

March 7th was left speechless.

For a moment.

She did not even know what to say.

Without a doubt.

A wicked thought rose in March 7th's heart. Since Pom-Pom was unwilling, she was ready to force the issue.

Pom-Pom jumped in fright and hurriedly hid behind Chen Mu.

The two's playful scuffle.

Put smiles on the faces of quite a few people aboard the train.

It was not until Himeko stood up and said with a smile, "All right, stop fooling around. The Train Warp will still take some time. Chen Mu spent the entire night doing research last night, so he must be exhausted. You and Stelle should take him to rest first."

"Oh! That's right!"

March 7th suddenly realized and stopped messing around with Pom-Pom.

At that moment, Stelle also came over to Chen Mu and said, "Chen Mu, I'll take you to your room."

"Me too! Me too!" March 7th raised her hand and shouted.

"Alright, then I'll be troubling you two." Chen Mu did not refuse and replied with a smile.

After that.

The two led Chen Mu deeper into the train.

Very soon.

The three arrived at Chen Mu's room.

It was a very clean and tidy room.

The furnishings were rather simple.

But it was clear that whoever had arranged it had done their best to make it feel especially cozy.

"Hehe, Stelle and I prepared this room for you together. What do you think?"

March 7th said proudly.

Beside her, Stelle looked at Chen Mu with great nervousness and anticipation.

"Mm, it's very nice. I like it very much."

Chen Mu smiled and said to the two of them.

Just one look was enough to tell how much care the two had put into the room.

Upon hearing that, a delighted expression appeared on Stelle's face. "As long as you like it, Chen Mu."

Naturally, March 7th also revealed a happy smile.

"Since you need to rest, we won't disturb you any longer."

At this, Chen Mu nodded as well.

After the two left, the room fell completely silent.

To be honest.

After a whole night of research, Chen Mu truly felt tired.

But in reality, it was not that bad.

Lying in bed, Chen Mu could not fall asleep for the time being.

So, he decided to enter the Chat Group and take a look.

Chat interface.

Hoshino Ai: "Tokisaki Kurumi, Kochou Kanae, Kurumi, Sister Kanae, how did the campaign against Muzan Kibutsuji go?"

Kochou Kanae: "It went very smoothly. Muzan Kibutsuji has already been successfully eliminated by us."

Hoshino Ai: "Really?!! Does that mean there are no more demons in the Demon Slayer World? Congratulations, Sister Kochou Kanae!"

Kochou Kanae: "...Haha, thank you. But this was mainly Miss Kurumi's achievement. She first used the Blue Spider Lily to lure Muzan Kibutsuji out. Then the Demon Slayer Corps held off the Twelve Kizuki, while Miss Kurumi and I dealt with Muzan Kibutsuji."

Kochou Kanae: "I have to say, Muzan Kibutsuji was indeed extremely powerful. If it had only been me without Miss Kurumi, Muzan Kibutsuji would probably have escaped already."

Kochou Kanae: "That really gave me a fright. After all, if he had truly escaped and Muzan Kibutsuji hid himself away, finding him again would have been very troublesome."

Tokisaki Kurumi: "Miss Kanae flatters me. Even without me, it would have been difficult for Muzan Kibutsuji to escape from Miss Kanae's hands."

Tokisaki Kurumi: "Besides, I gained tremendously from this as well. If Mr. Chen Mu had not told me, I would have missed it. I am truly very grateful to Mr. Chen Mu."

Hoshino Ai: "Haha, even if you call him Lord Chen Mu now, Kurumi, he probably will not see it. He is likely busy right now."

Tokisaki Kurumi: "When Mr. Chen Mu comes online, I will thank him again. He truly did me a huge favor."

Gotoh Hitori: "Th-then, has Miss Kurumi returned to her own world now?"

Tokisaki Kurumi: "Of course. Since everything has been completed, I naturally came back."

Kochou Kanae: "Ahem... Actually, the Demon Slayer Corps originally wanted to keep Miss Kurumi for the Celebration Banquet, but something unpleasant happened earlier, so Miss Kurumi did not attend."

Gotoh Hitori: "Something unpleasant?"

Kochou Kanae: "When Miss Kurumi first arrived, everyone did not believe in her strength, so Miss Kurumi gave them a lesson."

Gotoh Hitori: "..."

Hoshino Ai: "..."

Tokisaki Kurumi: "It had nothing to do with that. Even without those events, I had not planned to attend any Celebration Banquet in the first place."

Star Rail world.

Seeing this, Chen Mu

was not the least bit surprised that Tokisaki Kurumi and Kochou Kanae had eliminated Muzan Kibutsuji.

With Kochou Kanae's current strength, coupled with Tokisaki Kurumi, what was there to be surprised about in such an outcome?

Rather, if they had failed, that would have been surprising, would it not?

Just as Kochou Kanae had said, if Muzan Kibutsuji hid away, they would have had some trouble searching the entire world for him.

But because of the imbalance of information, Muzan Kibutsuji did not know the two women's strength, so he naturally would not be so cautious.

And as long as he showed himself even once, there was no way he could escape Tokisaki Kurumi's grasp.

The world had always been like this.

Not everything required him to personally step in to resolve it.

Chen Mu had never been worried about Muzan Kibutsuji in the first place.

And indeed, that was exactly how things turned out.

Just then, Chen Mu froze as a system notification window appeared before him.

Chen Mu thought about it and agreed.

Ding! Group member Chen Mu uploaded Longevity Medicine Technology and received 1,000,000 Points.

Hoshino Ai: "???"

Tokisaki Kurumi: "???"

Gotoh Hitori: "???"

Kochou Kanae: "???"

As soon as that message appeared, everyone, who had been enthusiastically discussing Muzan Kibutsuji, froze on the spot!

Holy shit?

A longevity medicine?!!

Hoshino Ai: "Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit!"

Hoshino Ai: "This is a longevity medicine! The legendary longevity medicine! Am I seeing this right?!!"

Gotoh Hitori: "We were still talking about Muzan Kibutsuji... and Mr. Chen Mu has invented something else that defies all imagination."

Kochou Kanae: "No wonder Mr. Chen Mu hadn't shown up lately. He was researching a longevity medicine... and he actually succeeded?"

Tokisaki Kurumi: "Another million Points... and it's a longevity medicine..."

Date A Live World.

Tokisaki Kurumi's face was filled with shock.
