After Mo Yi's dried fish snacks offensive, Yuumi quickly began circling Mo Yi and meowing nonstop.
"Mo Yi, you're Yuumi's best friend..."
"I'm sticking with you..."
"With you and me, let's keep it up, meow—"

After successfully protecting Magical Cat Yuumi, Mo Yi prepared to meet the Bald Great Demon King, who knew the answers he sought.
"You came."
Using the Little World Game's options, Mo Yi quickly entered the space where Rune Mage Ryze was.
When he opened his eyes, he saw the other party standing with his hands behind his back, facing away from Mo Yi. Mo Yi did not know whether he was gazing up at a nonexistent starry sky or pondering life itself. He could not see the man, only hear his voice.
"The answer you seek is the same as what you guessed."
"The unique energy of your world, Honkai, will not affect you—"
Mo Yi: "..."
The bald big shot was good in every way. Though he looked like a typical purple potato alien, he was surprisingly tolerant, with the temperament of a kind old man.
The only thing Mo Yi wanted to complain about was that the other party liked to act profound. He was like those sages who had nothing better to do and always made prophecies deliberately vague. He could have summarized the key point in twenty words, yet he insisted on describing it in hundreds of words with an epic tone.
Simply put, he liked showing off.
The reason Mo Yi turned to Rune Mage Ryze whenever he encountered a problem was not only because the other party was truly knowledgeable. Ryze had also once revealed that his information came from "it."
Mo Yi naturally guessed that "it" referred to the Little World Game.
Whenever Mo Yi pressed him about the Little World Game's secrets, Ryze directly changed the subject. When pushed too hard, he finally said that his authority level was insufficient.
The Little World Game had merely designated him as a temporary customer service representative because he communicated with Mo Yi so often, allowing him to relay some of "its" messages.
So whenever Mo Yi encountered something he did not understand or had questions about, Ryze was the first person he asked.
Under Ryze's explanation, Mo Yi roughly understood what was going on.
After being activated by the Little World Game, the energy seed Mo Yi had obtained within his body, "magic power," was an energy of an extremely high level with exceptionally strong compatibility. It could basically absorb energy of any nature, transforming and compressing it into the "magic power" within Mo Yi's body.
Naturally, Mo Yi could also absorb Honkai Energy and transform it into "magic power," so there was no need to worry about being corrupted by Honkai Energy.
"Then I can rest easy."
After learning that the corrosive nature of Honkai Energy, which had worried him most, was ineffective against him, Mo Yi let out a huge sigh of relief.
Even if a Honkai outbreak really occurred in Changkong City in the future, just like in "Honkai Impact 3rd," he would not have to worry about being killed by Honkai Energy in his sleep.
Of course, after resolving the most basic issue of his personal safety, Mo Yi had to consider whether he could stop it or save innocent people if "Honkai" truly erupted in Changkong City.
This had nothing to do with whether he was a saint. It was simply the most basic morality of being human.
It was like seeing a child standing in the middle of the road while a car was about to hit them. So long as their own safety was assured, many people would be willing to rush forward and save the child's life.
Well, of course, some people would rush in to save them without even considering whether they themselves were in danger.
If it were Mo Yi, he did not know whether he had that kind of courage or resolve. Perhaps only when it truly happened before him would he know what choice he would ultimately make.
But saving the innocent citizens of Changkong City would not be simple either.
First, Mo Yi was not certain whether such a disaster would actually happen.
Second, even if he wanted to persuade people to leave in advance, no one would believe him. If someone suddenly told you to move away quickly because a massive earthquake was about to strike the city where your home was located, most people would not believe that "lunatic." It would already be good enough if they did not throw him out.
Thinking of this, Mo Yi could only sigh. He could only take things one step at a time. For now, his top priority was to live his own life well and become stronger.
After resolving the doubts in his heart, Mo Yi followed Ryze and continued learning Rune Magic.
------The next morning------
By the time Mo Yi woke up, it was already broad daylight. He picked up his phone and saw that it was nearly ten in the morning, so he got up, brushed his teeth, and continued today's Honor of Kings journey.
He only needed the recognition of one more hero to pass the trial mission and become an Official Player of the Little World Game. Just thinking about it made Mo Yi feel energized all over.
While brushing his teeth, Mo Yi suddenly thought of something.
He was no longer living alone. There was a new tenant, Kiana.
He had smothered her face with a pillow last night. She had looked pretty angry and even said she would make him pay today. He wondered whether she had slept well last night.
However, she had most likely already gone out to deliver food.
As for Kiana's threat from last night, Mo Yi was not afraid in the slightest. Not only was his true strength no weaker than hers, and he would not lose to her in a fight, but he was also her landlord. He possessed the ultimate secret technique of "kicking her out," so he figured Kiana would not dare act too outrageously.
"I wonder if that girl is still here."
Mo Yi opened his door, preparing to head into the living room and check the adjacent room to see whether Kiana was home.
Before he could take even one step, he noticed a plate wrapped in plastic wrap sitting outside his door, with several pieces of toast on it.
Mo Yi crouched down and picked up the plate, along with the small note pinned beneath it.
"I made too much breakfast, so this is for you—Kiana (expression: smile)."
"This girl..."
Mo Yi set down the note and picked up a piece of toast. After taking a bite, he found it a little hard from having gone cold, but it tasted all right.
"You used my ingredients to make toast without asking. I won't hold it against you this time."
Eating the toast, Mo Yi walked out of his room and looked around. After confirming that Kiana was indeed not home, he returned to his room and prepared to begin today's campaign.
The moment he logged into Honor of Kings, his message bar started flashing nonstop. There was no need to look; it was definitely messages from "World's Number One Princess," that scallion girl.
When he opened them, they were indeed from her. In summary, she was asking why Mo Yi had not logged in last night. Playing alone had been so boring, and she had been dragged down horribly by useless teammates.
Before Mo Yi could finish reading her messages, she sent him a direct chat request. Since she had come looking for him herself, there was naturally no need for him to finish reading her hundred-plus boring messages of complaints.
"Queue together?"
It was a very simple message.
