Chapter 314
"..."
For a moment, both Luo Mio and Saitama fell silent, unsure of what to say.
Luo Mio turned her head away, while Saitama scratched his cheek.
Seeing the two remain silent, Xiao Shi quickly waved his hand and said to them.
"Alright, let's go."
I raised my eyes and glanced at the dust that was about to completely dissipate.
"With the commotion you two caused, that so-called 'Hero Association' has probably already sent people over."
Upon hearing Xiao Shi's words, Luo Mio also looked at Saitama, saw him with a spirited smile, and then extended her left fist.
"It seems our duel will have to be postponed until next time."
Looking at Luo Mio, Saitama's face instantly became handsome, and he also extended his right fist to bump it with Luo Mio's.
"Ah."
"Alright, stop being so lovey-dovey."
Xiao Shi, standing to the side, also urged the two of them on.
"They're here, they're here."
After saying that, Luo Mio cast a Void Fissures.
As Saitama walked into the Void Fissures, he exclaimed in admiration.
'What a convenient feature!'
As Luo Mio, Saitama, and the others left, the dust that filled the sky also dissipated.
Then a humanoid figure spewing exhaust fumes appeared in the sky.
The figure was made entirely of silver metal, with only three red dots on its face that resembled eyes, and heavy weapons resembling laser cannons mounted on its back.
Upon seeing the situation on the ground, the metallic figure emitted a synthesized electronic voice.
"It really is... unimaginably powerful."
——
After leaving the wasteland and passing through the Void Fissures, Luo Mio, Saitama, and Xiao Shi arrived in a city.
Saitama was taken aback when he saw the surrounding buildings, and then spoke.
"Isn't this near my home?"
Luo Mio was also taken aback, then scratched her cheek and said, "Ah, I just saw that there wasn't anyone around, so I chose this spot."
Saitama stared blankly at Luo Mio and said in surprise.
"Are your abilities really that convenient? By the way, how many abilities do you have?"
"Well, I haven't counted them in detail, but there are probably dozens of them."
As Luo Mio said, if we only consider the power of the Character Carrier, Luo Mio probably has dozens of relatively simple abilities.
After all, Luo Mio possesses dozens of lightning-attribute abilities just by using "Moon Wheel" and "Thunderbolt".
Not to mention the abilities brought by "Feather of the Dust" and "Space".
The "Feather of the Dust" alone has over a hundred ways to be used.
"Speaking of which..."
Saitama looked at Luo Mio and Xiao Shi curiously and said, "Where are you from? This is the first time I've seen people with such great strength."
"Ah, this..."
Just as Luo Mio was explaining to Saitama.
"We come from other worlds."
Xiao Shi, who was standing to the side, spoke to Saitama first.
"..."
Saitama's art style is instantly different, with very simple lines.
"Huh?"
Upon hearing Xiao Shi's words, Luo Mio couldn't help but sigh and rub her forehead.
Saitama listened to Xiaoshi's words and then looked at Luo Mio. After seeing the expression on her face, Saitama understood.
Xiao Shi is telling the truth!
A bead of sweat rolled down Saitama's forehead and across his cheek.
If it were anyone else, they would probably think Xiaoshi was crazy for saying that, but Saitama is different. He is the strongest person in the world.
To him, people from all over the world are the same, after all, he has defeated quite a few weirdos and strange people so far.
So he was only slightly surprised that Luo Mio and Xiao Shi were from another world.
However, Xiaoshi's words also made Saitama realize that there was no one in this world who could rival him.
That makes sense, though, as Xiao Shi and Luo Mio's strength far surpasses that of any of the strange people he has ever encountered.
I haven't seen Xiao Shi fight at full strength, but judging from her ability to easily create an Illusionary Space, she's definitely not weak.
As for Luo Mio, she was the only man who could fight him to a standstill and give him a sense of crisis.
Thinking of this, Saitama asked in confusion.
"Then why did you come back to this world?"
"Bring him here to clear his head."
Xiao Shi patted Luo Mio on the shoulder.
"To clear your head?"
"Yeah, this kid just destroyed a world."
"..."
"..."
Upon hearing this, Saitama instantly stiffened, looked at Luo Mio, and took a slight step back.
"Could it be... that you two are bad people?"
Seeing Saitama take a step back, Luo Mio retorted with a headache, "Do I look that much like a bad guy?"
Having no other choice, Luo Mio revealed a Red and White Feather, then handed it to Saitama and said, "Put this on your forehead, and you will know everything."
Upon hearing Luo Mio's words, Saitama took the Red and White Feather that shimmered with a faint light, giving off a sense of warmth, and placed it on his forehead as Luo Mio instructed.
"..."
In an instant, all of Luo Mio's memories of the seventeen years she spent in the Black World flooded into Saitama's mind.
As expected of Saitama?
If it were anyone else, the sheer volume of memories flooding in would probably cause their brain to explode on the spot, unable to process the information from the past seventeen years.
After Saitama finished filtering out everything about Luo Mio in the Black World, he spoke up.
"No wonder you destroyed that world."
Upon hearing Saitama's words, Luo Mio could only shrug helplessly.
While the two were chatting, Xiao Shi, who had already explored the surroundings, spoke to Luo Mio.
Whose place are we going to stay at tonight?
"This..."
Saitama, who was standing nearby, said to the two of them, "How about we go to the house next door to mine?"
Then he explained to Luo Mio and Xiao Shi.
"This is a suburb of City Z. The surrounding houses are uninhabited and are known as Ghost Town by other citizens."
"It's practically unclaimed land, but the house has all the necessary water, electricity, and gas."
Xiao Shi shrugged and said, "I don't mind, I can sit anywhere."
Luo Mio also pondered for a moment.
"Alright, then let's do as Teacher Saitama says and move in next door to you."
"Um... could you please not call me teacher? It sounds really awkward."
"Huh? I think it sounds pretty good."
"..."
As they talked, the three of them arrived at Saitama's house.
Xiao Shi opened the door to the next room and went inside.
As soon as he stepped inside, he was hit by a blast of dust, and Xiao Shi frowned slightly.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he easily removed all the stains and dust from the room.
Looking at the house's very simple decorations, Xiao Shi also said to Luo Mio.
"I remember your Imaginary Space was filled with a lot of furniture, wasn't it?"
"Yes, I bought it when I was shopping with Tia before."
After saying that, Luo Mio snapped her fingers.
Countless Void Fissures appeared, and in the blink of an eye, luxurious and expensive furniture appeared in the small room.
Saitama, who had changed his clothes and came over for a visit, slowly opened his mouth upon seeing this scene.
After tidying everything up, Xiao Shi also spoke to Luo Mio.
What are we having for dinner?
Saitama scratched the back of his head after hearing this.
"At my house, we can only have egg rice tonight."
Luo Mio stroked her chin, deep in thought.
"I do have some high-end ingredients that Tia bought for me before I left in my Imaginary Space."
"Some high-end ingredients?"
"Well, even if a family of five eats three meals a day, it would take them more than ten years to finish that amount."
"So much?!"
Luo Mio ignored Saitama's shocked expression, her eyes flashing with purple light as she instantly focused her gaze on the Imaginary Space, looking at the ingredients stored inside.
"Hmm, let me see... Bluefin tuna, Iberian ham, Brittany Blue Lobster, Pearl Sturgeon, Kobe beef, Premium Foie Gras, Belon Oyster, Prime Abalone..."
Upon hearing about these high-end ingredients, some of which he had never even heard of before, Saitama couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"This... this is what rich people are like..."
"By the way, won't these ingredients rot after being left out for so long?"
Hearing Saitama's question, Luo Mio chuckled and said, "You can rest assured about that. The flow of time in my Imaginary Space can be adjusted at will. Even if the ingredients were put in a thousand years ago, they will be just as fresh as when they were put in."
Upon hearing Luo Mio's explanation, Saitama couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"What a convenient ability!"
A short while later, Luo Mio took out a portion of Kobe beef from the Imaginary Space.
"Let's have steak rice bowl tonight!"
——
Meanwhile, in a completely black building in City A, without any windows.
A man in a black suit spoke to the person in front of him.
"This is footage taken by 'Metal Knight' after arriving at the scene, while this one is footage taken by satellite."
