"Adapt? Aren't you putting on a good-guy act?"
Hearing Jiu Ming mutter to himself, Kaguya gave a mischievous chuckle.
Jiu Ming shrugged. "Let's just treat it as letting them play a more realistic game."
"I want to play too..."
"Not happening for now."
The corner of Jiu Ming's mouth twitched as he immediately refused. These people were playing just fine—wouldn't suddenly throwing in someone with cheats be maliciously wrecking the balance!?
In other people's eyes, when Kaguya fought, it was practically like she had a speed hack on... and the kind that would never get detected, at that!
"Tch." Kaguya curled her lip. Jiu Ming had thought she would stubbornly say something like, "As if I care," but all he got was an answer telling him he had to bring her along next time...
Then next time it was.
"Let's just watch properly this time." With a snap of his fingers, Jiu Ming produced several little stools and set them aside. Yet he himself sat on White Fox, who had just walked out of the house without knowing what was going on. Several veins instantly bulged on White Fox's face. "You bastard, could you be any more casual!?"
"Don't mind it. Consider it the price of your ticket to watch."
"Could you say that any more casually?" White Fox snorted. "Those wolves aren't that weak, are they? They're actually being chased all over the place by a bunch of things that barely even look human?"
"We just need to suppress their strength a little." Jiu Ming explained, his gaze remaining fixed on those transparent spheres. It was indeed effective, but... sigh. There was a very promising path here, yet if there was no way to improve the effect, it would still all be for nothing.
As for achieving such gains
