I Like Both Black and White

Li Yu was already quite satisfied when he heard from Brother Ji that he could only go up to the 18th floor. Returning from the 27th floor to the 18th floor would be quick and wouldn't take long at all, which was much more convenient than running back.

"Then let's just go up to the 18th floor safe zone, Brother Ji. Actually, setting up a shop there would be quite good. We could also recycle some materials and have a stable source of income," Li Yu suggested.

Hearing Li Yu say this, Brother Ji smiled and said, "I'll have Sister Mi handle this tomorrow. We'll need to find some suitable people. Don't worry, I'll arrange everything within a week."

He agreed. Making money and gaining another source of materials—weren't these good things? Why would he refuse?

After discussing these matters with Brother Ji, Li Yu returned to Liu Hui and the others and told them about it. Everyone was quite surprised and delighted to hear this.

Completely unexpectedly, Brother Ji actually agreed, which was fantastic. Liu Hui turned to Li Yu and asked, "Shall we start going down tomorrow?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yu looked at the girls and said, "Let's discuss this and see what everyone thinks."

He's a very easy person to talk to. If the others don't want to go down, then there's nothing we can do but choose a different time. It's not a big problem.

Upon hearing Li Yu's words, everyone nodded in agreement. Then Liu Hui ran over and gathered everyone together, repeating what Li Yu had just told them.

After hearing Liu Hui's account, everyone turned to look at Li Yu. Xia Yu couldn't help but ask, "So, we'll be in the Dungeon until university starts?"

"That's what I mean. If you don't want to go, I won't force you. Anyone who doesn't want to go doesn't have to. Those who want to go can go." Li Yu nodded, confirming.

"Go, of course we have to go! We can earn money and gain experience—who would refuse such a good thing?" Was there even a need to hesitate? Absolutely not. She wholeheartedly supported it.

Seeing this, the others nodded in agreement. If they weren't going to the Dungeon, were they supposed to stay home? There was no need for that, so everyone should go to the Dungeon. That was the decision, and no one objected.

"So that's settled then? We'll go buy supplies today, and then we'll meet up tomorrow to head to the Dungeon," Li Yu said to his classmates.

Everyone nodded in agreement, unanimously approving the proposal. Li Yu then looked at Ais, Lefiya, and the others, asking, "Ais, what about you? Do you want to come along?"

In response to Li Yu's question, Ais nodded, looking a little dazed, and said, "Wherever you go, we'll go. We'll follow you from now on."

They didn't need to handle things on Riveria's side, and they had nowhere else to go if they didn't follow Li Yu, so naturally they went with Li Yu and the others.

Seeing this, the matter was settled immediately. Once everyone had upgraded their weapons, they bid farewell and left together, heading to the market to purchase the supplies they needed.

Let's prepare a month's worth of supplies first. Li Yu also took Bell and the others to shop. Hestia was a little depressed, since Li Yu and the others were about to set off again.

Next, she would be alone at home again, which couldn't possibly make her happy. But she couldn't stop them, since Li Yu and the others still needed to improve their strength, so she decided to continue reading at the library.

The group began a shopping spree, and Li Yu also bought a lot of things and stuffed them into his Space Backpack, such as hamburger sets. Since time doesn't flow in the Space Backpack, he naturally stuffed everything into it.

Since Xia Yu and the others did it before, Li Yu could naturally do the same, right? So he just frantically stuffed things into his Space Backpack. One of Li Yu's Space Ring was completely filled with cooked food and the like.

He's too lazy to cook anymore, so this time he'll just prepare all sorts of ready-made food. That way, he can save himself some trouble and won't have to prepare meals every time.

After finishing all that, everyone ate out before returning to the apartment. Back at her own home, Li Yu got busy, as she hadn't yet completed the equipment she promised Asuna.

I'll stay up all night tonight and try to get it done for her before morning. Asuna, seeing that Li Yu is busy, I won't bother her. I'll just pull a few girls back to my room and start chatting.

Since Li Yu had accepted Asuna's money, he would naturally make Asuna the items looked beautiful. With all the materials prepared, Li Yu began sewing the fabric together and then enchanting it—it was needlework, after all.

It can be said that every stitch of Asuna's outfit was made by Li Yu himself, and a set of equipment exactly the same as the Knights of the Blood outfit worn by Asuna in the anime was presented to Li Yu.

Li Yu transformed the red patterns on the equipment into an enchantment, giving the entire set of gear not only defense and magic resistance, but also features such as automatic cleaning, fireproofing, waterproofing, and warmth retention.

Most importantly, with the self-repairing capabilities of those materials, Li Yu no longer needs to worry about Asuna.

Looking at his masterpiece, Li Yu nodded in satisfaction. He took out his phone to check the time and realized it was already past midnight. Li Yu tossed the clothes aside and crawled into bed to rest.

Nothing happened that night. When Li Yu got up the next day, he sent a message to Asuna, asking her to come to his room to get his equipment. After sending the message, Li Yu opened his door and went into the bathroom to wash up.

When Asuna was already up, received this message, her eyes lit up immediately. Without saying a word, she ran downstairs. Li Yu, who was brushing his teeth, soon heard a knock on the door.

"Come in directly, the door isn't locked." Li Yu's voice rang in Asuna's ears. The mark on her hand was slightly warm, which made her realize how Li Yu was communicating with her telepathically.

Immediately, Asuna also pushed open the door and walked in. After hearing the sounds coming from the bathroom, her gaze fell on the white clothes that Li Yu had placed on the table.

Upon seeing this outfit, Asuna's eyes lit up. She hurriedly went over to examine it, touched the material, and noticed the unique patterns on it. Asuna understood that the armor in this outfit was incredibly strong.

However, it looks like I'll need to wear safety shorts with this skirt, Asuna thought to herself. Just then, Li Yu came out of the restroom.

"This set of equipment offers good defense, and it also has automatic repair and cleaning functions. In addition, it keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer, ensuring you won't get cold because your skirt is too short," Li Yu explained to Asuna, introducing the features of the equipment to ensure that Asuna's money was well spent.

Asuna listened to Li Yu's explanation, her eyes brightened even more. She was already very satisfied with just those small functions. It was definitely the right decision to have Li Yu make the order. Looking at the equipment, Asuna became more and more excited.

"By the way, the stockings are only available in white for now. If you want black stockings, we'll need to get other materials. I'll see if I can get them for you in a while." Li Yu suddenly looked at Asuna with a serious expression at the end.

Asuna, who had been somewhat excited, froze instantly. She looked at Li Yu with some confusion, and after meeting his gaze, Asuna heard Li Yu add, "If it really doesn't work, you don't have to wear it."

Asuna looked into Li Yu's eyes, then couldn't help but ask, "Do you prefer black or white?"

"Apologize!" However, Li Yu was displeased when he heard Asuna say that. What did she mean by saying he liked black or white? That was utter nonsense. Men like both!

Asuna was suddenly confused by Li Yu's answer. She looked at Li Yu innocently and said, "Apologize for what? Did I say something wrong?"

"Yes, you're wrong. It's not that I like black or white, it's that I like them all!" Li Yu retorted, leaving Asuna somewhat speechless.

"Okay, I apologize! I'll go upstairs to change first, wait for me." Somewhat amused and exasperated, Asuna didn't argue with Li Yu any further. So he liked everything, huh? She understood. She made a mental note of it. After saying this, Asuna picked up the outfit and left Li Yu's room, going upstairs.

After watching Asuna leave, Li Yu began tidying up his room, putting away the materials he had left over from making clothes the night before.

Back in her room, Asuna carefully examined the equipment, then her gaze fell on the white stockings made by Li Yu. Asuna's lips curled up slightly; they were truly exquisite.

Without hesitation, she immediately began changing. After putting on the outfit and moving around a bit, she was incredibly surprised; it fit perfectly, and she felt absolutely no discomfort.

Even if some parts were a little too big, it seemed to have been automatically adjusted? Thinking this, Asuna put on the stockings, and then the stockings automatically fitted themselves, perfectly hugging her legs.

Seeing this, Asuna nodded thoughtfully. "I see. There are things that adapt automatically?"

Li Yu has taken all these issues into consideration; perhaps I could ask him to make clothes for me in the future?

No... having Li Yu make the clothes would be too expensive. If Li Yu became my boyfriend... wouldn't it be free? Thinking of this, Asuna's eyes lit up. What a great idea!

Thinking about all this, Asuna blushed slightly. She patted her face and then quickly put on the rest of her clothes. After she finished, Asuna stood in front of the full-length mirror.

She looked at herself in the mirror, a slight smile playing on her lips. It really suited her perfectly. She'd made the right choice in asking Li Yu to make this outfit. Asuna thought to herself with a smug grin. After admiring herself for a while, Asuna packed her things and headed out.

Asuna knocked on Ais's and the others' door. When they came out, they were all a little surprised to see Asuna's current attire. After looking her up and down for a while, Ais couldn't help but ask, "Did Li Yu make this?"

In response to Ais's question, Asuna nodded and said, "That's right, he just gave it to me. How does it look? Is it nice?"

As she spoke, Asuna turned around, and Lefiya, seeing this, couldn't help but say, "It makes me want him to make me a set too. This would really suit you."

Several girls felt that this outfit suited Asuna perfectly, bringing out her best features.

Hearing this, Asuna chuckled. She was quite pleased to receive praise from fellow women. After chatting for a while, they all went downstairs to find Li Yu.

As for Hestia, Asuna didn't call her. She had just sensed that Hestia was still fast asleep, so there was no need to wake her.

When they arrived downstairs, Li Yu and Bell were already waiting. Upon seeing Asuna, Li Yu looked her over without restraint, then gave her a thumbs up and said, "So beautiful! It's truly worthy of the clothes I made."

Asuna was both amused and exasperated by what she heard. Was he praising her looks or the clothes? Although she really wanted to ask, she held back, feeling embarrassed to speak in front of so many people.

After everyone met up, they headed to the school to meet up with the other students. When they arrived near the school, it seemed that the area was under lockdown. Looking at the traffic police directing traffic, a look of surprise flashed in Li Yu's eyes.

"It seems like the college entrance exams started today." Asuna noticed the traffic police and mentioned it. Everyone else was taking the exams, but it had nothing to do with Li Yu and the others.

"Is the college entrance exam that important here?" Lefiya asked in surprise, looking at the police under martial law. This elf from another world was also taken aback.

She had been in this world for a while now and had come to understand some of its things, but she hadn't expected that people in this world would take the college entrance examination so seriously.

"Of course, it's a crucial crossroads in life, a time when many people leap over the dragon gate, getting into a good university means they can learn even more," Asuna explained to them from the side.

Listening to Asuna's explanation, Lefiya suddenly understood. So that's how it is! It's really enviable. The more the Loki Familia members learn about this world, the more they despise Orario. In their eyes, Orario is now almost like the countryside.

The group quickly arrived at the school, where the others were already waiting nearby. Li Yu's school was now under lockdown, and many parents were standing at the school gate sending their children into the examination hall.

After Li Yu arrived, the others hurriedly came over to join Li Yu. Their fully armed appearance attracted the attention of many people.

"Class monitor, everyone's here. Shall we head out?" Xia Yu stepped forward and explained the situation. They were constantly being stared at at the school gate, so she wanted to leave quickly.

"Let's go." Hearing this, Li Yu glanced at the parents over there, nodded, and started walking away. The others quickly followed.

Some of the girls in the class gathered around Asuna to examine her new outfit. It was so eye-catching; she could practically wear it as casual wear!

As everyone was leaving, some parents couldn't help but ask their children, "Don't those people have to take the college entrance exam? Why are they running around at this hour?"

"Those are all from Special Class. They were all admitted to Boundary University without taking the college entrance examination!" Many people knew about Li Yu and the others, so they hurriedly explained.

Upon hearing this, many people gasped in astonishment. So, they were all top students? And all of them were admitted to universities through special admission programs? That was simply incredible.

Many students were actually quite envious. The battles fought by Li Yu and others had left a deep impression on everyone, showing that they were on completely different levels.

Although they were all the same age, the people in that class were just too outrageous. Their strength completely overwhelmed them. At this point, it was already quite remarkable for them to reach the third rank.

But in the Special Class? It's said that the lowest level of strength is fourth rank, and there are even Fifth Tier people, like the one known as the class monitor.

Fifth Tier! That's a goal that many people strive for their entire lives, but Li Yu, who hasn't even gone to university yet, has already reached a height that many people may never be able to reach in their entire lives.

Especially those students who were in the same class as Li Yu before the class reshuffle were the most envious. Li Yu used to be very withdrawn in class and couldn't play with anyone. He was like a marginal figure.

Unexpectedly, after his talent awakened, he seemed to have a cheat code activated, his strength increasing rapidly. While everyone else was still struggling at the second or third tier, he had already broken through to the Fifth Tier. No wonder he stopped playing with everyone before; there was a reason for it!!

When you are strong enough, others will naturally look for the reasons within themselves. That's probably the situation now, isn't it?

But none of this matters to Li Yu. The Li Yu of the past wasn't him; not playing with them was a different Li Yu altogether! What does this have to do with the current Li Yu?

Li Yu and the others began to accelerate, heading directly towards the location of the Dimensional Rift. After this breakthrough, Bell was barely able to keep up with Li Yu and the others, a situation that greatly excited Bell.

Although no one was going all out, Heng had undergone a tremendous transformation compared to before. This time, in the Dungeon, Bell set himself a goal: to break through to Iv3!

The group quickly arrived at the location of the Dimensional Rift. When they returned, they found the place had become lively, and they no longer needed to check IDs to enter!
