The next morning.

Morien closed his eyes on the bed and stretched hard.

I don't know if it's because I have a certain understanding of the two paths of life, but Morien had a particularly comfortable sleep yesterday.

When I wake up, I feel relaxed all over.

He moved his body and suddenly realized something was wrong.

It's too quiet.

The room was too quiet.

Morien will not deliberately ask Swarm to keep quiet when sleeping. It has become his habit to fall asleep listening to Swarm's chirping.

Morien totally listens to it as a light noise to aid sleep.

But now the room is extremely quiet, without the chirping sounds of various insects.

Morien opened his eyes suddenly, turned over and sat up.

As expected.

The whole room was very clean, there was no trace of a bug on the walls, floor, ceiling or body.

"Where's my insect?"

Morien got out of bed and quickly connected to Swarm Network.

Soon, Morien immediately heard the response.

It's the voice of Fortune-Collecting.

Although the sound sounded directly in Swarm Network, Morien could feel the general location and feel that the sound came from his own body.

"Huh?"

Morien was confused for a moment.

Did I feed her sleepwalking last night?

Path Power in the body suddenly trembled, and energy leaked out of Morien's body, opening a hole in the air. Fortune-Collecting's head poked out, looking at Morien blankly.

"Huh----"

"Huh?"

Seeing this head, Morien took a deep breath and sat back on the bed.

"Scared me."

Morien's eyes followed Fortune-Collecting, watching her come out of the mouth, flap her wings, and fly into his lap.

Turning his attention to the opening in the air again, Morien was a little confused.

He can feel that his Swarm is inside.

Putting his hand on Fortune-Collecting's back and touching it, Morien asked, "How did you get in?"

Fortune-Collecting's tentacles moved, telling Morien that she didn't know either.

It's Morien. It seemed that he was sleepwalking when he went to bed last night, and he made a hole in the air.

Then they lined up to go in.

Morien feels like there must be a question mark on his forehead now.

"No, regardless of whether I drove this or not----"

"Are you so big-hearted? A hole suddenly opened in mid-air and you dared to crawl in?" Morien patted Fortune-Collecting's head and scolded.

Fortune-Collecting flapped its wings on Morien's legs to show that it was not done casually.

They investigated and confirmed that this was indeed the "door" opened by Morien, so they got in.

"That's right." Morien nodded.

There is no need for him to ask Swarm how they confirmed it.

It would be too funny if Swarm couldn't even tell whether something came from his own Royal Insect.

"What's it like inside?" Morien asked curiously.

Fortune-Collecting thought for a while and replied, "It's the same as my father's Innate Domain."

"Same as my Innate Domain?" Morien repeated it, lost in thought.

He began to feel, feel the Path Power in his body, feel his own Innate Domain.

After some quick research, he finally figured out what was going on.

Morien seems to have unconsciously opened a realm in his body, which is somewhat similar to how Cursed Spirit Manipulation opened up a special space in his body to store Cursed Spirit.

Pleasure already has the ability to "make something out of nothing" to a certain extent. Morien's behavior is equivalent to opening his Innate Domain in a place where "something is out of nothing".

It is maintained by Swarm and Desire who have a "home" Wish Power.

This space belongs to "Imaginary Space" and is stored in Morien's body.

Pure nesting doll.

This is not incomprehensible, the world itself has similar technologies.

Quite a few.

The most typical one is Shikigami.

Some Shikigami have entities and will be stored in the exclusive space of Shikigami before summoning.

Or Cursed Spirit Manipulation, which is similar to Suguru Geto, has the effect of opening up a small space in the body, and Cursed Spirit can be eaten and stored.

There are also some Cursed Spirit that have storage effects themselves, such as Grade 3 Cursed Spirit Chouobou.

Looking at it this way, opening up a portable space on Jujutsu World does not seem to be something worth showing off.

Morien thinks.

However, it does not need to consume energy, the Wish Power produced by Swarm itself is enough to support it.

"Wow." Morien exclaimed, "I finally have some space with me."

He smiled happily.

This seems to be something he can only do because he has taken a step closer in his life.

Seeing Morien is happy, Fortune-Collecting is also happy.

Morien looked at Fortune-Collecting and touched the fur again.

Feeling Fortune-Collecting's emotions, Morien found that she seemed to want to return to that space.

"Okay, then do whatever you want." Morien said.

As he spoke, he swiped in the air and opened a hole.

Fortune-Collecting immediately got in.

After doing all this casually, Morien was suddenly stunned.

That's not right.

Even if he creates a small space in his body, why can he open the "door" to the outside so skillfully?

Morien was puzzled for a moment.

I don't know why, but he seems to be very easy to master techniques such as "Space", "Enchantment", and "Domain Expansion".

The same goes for the previous Simple Domain. It was obvious that I had just learned it for less than a day, and I could use it casually after setting up a Binding Vow. After trying it a few times, I didn't even need to set up Binding Vow again.

The same goes for Domain Expansion.

If it weren't for the fact that he clearly knew that he had no space-related abilities, Morien would even begin to suspect that he had already synchronized a certain space-related ability and gained mastery of "space" simultaneously.

But Morien knows very well that he does not have this ability in his skill bar.

"Perhaps, because I often go in and out of Synchronization Space, I have some insights into this aspect." Morien concluded.

Thinking of this, Morien no longer struggled, changed clothes and did a simple wash before entering Synchronization Space.

The black space rippled once again, and Jujutsu Morien walked out of it.

The size of the rooms in the space has become larger again.

It seems that compared to Jujutsu Morien who lives a fulfilling life, Morien is actually quite leisurely.

"Here? Good evening." Mysteries Morien, who was sitting in front of a bar, greeted Jujutsu Morien.

There was a white bar in front of him, and he was holding an unknown drink in his hand.

"It's morning here." Jujutsu Morien replied, "But I still wish you a good evening."

"It's also morning here." Mysteries Morien shrugged, drank the drink in the glass in one gulp, and the drink in the goblet was automatically refilled immediately.

"What are you pretending to be?" Morien asked with a smile, "You know how to drink, so you just pretend?"

"And is alcohol really useful for us now?"

"This is iced black tea." Mysteries Morien shook the goblet in his hand, "I want to adapt to this atmosphere in advance."

"I'm going to attend a banquet in two days."

"I don't really want to act like a bastard."

"It's night here 24 hours a day." Star Rail Morien, sitting on the sofa, crossed his legs and turned a page of the book.

He put down the book and looked at Morien.

"Lord of Mysteries has already told me about your affairs." Star Rail Morien spread his hands, "What are you going to do?"

"What should I do? Well----" Jujutsu Morien thought for a while, "It's mainly because I can't find it."

"Those old guys are well hidden, it will take some time for Swarm to go out and find them."

"Before that, I'd better exercise Reverse Cursed Technique."

"Have you thought about how to torture them?" Star Rail Morien asked with a smile, "I can help you check it on our website."

"The methods of the interstellar age are always better than those of primitive people."

"I don't have the high-tech equipment you have over here." Jujutsu Morien spread his hands, "Forget it, I'll just follow my own ideas."

"Okay." Star Rail Morien nodded to express understanding.

"My top priority now is to find them." Jujutsu Morien emphasized.

"Yeah, that's right." Mysteries Morien nodded, "It's really troublesome over there."

"You don't have Spirit World over there, so there's nothing you can do about divination." Mysteries Morien immediately thought in a familiar way.

At present, divination is an ability unique to Lord of Mysteries. After he wiped out the gangsters, he began to find qualified targets through divination.

But there is no Spirit World in other worlds. Although the "divination ability" itself can still be used, the essence of divination is to obtain information through Spirit World. And since there is no Spirit World, even if the divination is successful, the divination can only be "nothing".

"I left some Swarm and started looking for them, but those people hid them very well, and many of them were even in other countries."

"It's still a bit difficult for me to survey a complete planet."

"It might take a month or two to find it."

"Currently, we have no way to find someone from your side, and we don't know when we will be able to come again." Mysteries Morien lay on the bar, looking drunk.

"Are you practicing your acting skills?" Jujutsu Morien asked with a smile.

"Hmm----" Mysteries Morien replied with a soft "hmm" in a nasal tone.

"More than a week has passed here. There is a banquet for Duke Negan the day after tomorrow. I remember that Qilingus died on this day."

"I'm going to join in the fun."

Mysteries Morien sat up from the chair, feeling full of energy.

"How are you going to join in the fun?" Jujutsu Morien asked.

"It's very simple," Mysteries Morien said with a smile, "Just find a noble at the door and sneak in with him."

With Lonely Monster's ability, he can easily get a "friend position".

"Same."

"Then remember to change into more decent clothes." Jujutsu Morien reminded.

"Of course," Mysteries Morien snapped his fingers, "My clothes are all luxury goods."

The material of his clothes is fine silk and various materials from Swarm, which was considered quite luxurious in the era where Mysteries World lived.

The design of the clothing is a combination of Remembrance synchronized from Star Rail Morien and popular styles from various planets.

Everything from the materials to the design is luxury in the literal sense.

"What about you? How are you?" Jujutsu Morien asked Star Rail Morien again.

"I'm almost at Penacony." Star Rail Morien replied, "We have already arrived at Asdana System, and we may be able to enter Celestial Ring at Penacony in less than half an hour."

Celestial Ring are several rings around the planet Penacony, which are similar to the rings of Saturn and are composed of "hotel rooms".

Each room in those hotels is very small and narrow, even if it only accommodates one adult, it will be a bit crowded, but there are so many that they have circled the entire planet several times.

These rooms are used for "sleeping".

Planet of Festivities Penacony, the legendary "land of dreams".

But coming to Penacony does not mean that you have entered the destination. The real "dream place" is in a dream.

"If I must say it, what I'm most worried about right now is whether my children can be brought in." Star Rail Morien held his face.

The security at Penacony is very strict, and various procedures have to be checked several times. Star Rail Morien is really not sure whether the suitcase containing Swarm can be brought in.

In theory there should be no problem.

After all, Harmony tolerates everything, and the Family can even put a person with Stellaron in his body. It's just a few harmless bugs, so there should be no problem.

In Honkai: Star Rail World, Monster carrying bugs around is actually not that uncommon.

It is Star Rail Morien who is worried that the Family will require him to buy a ticket for every bug.

"Oh? That's just right." Jujutsu Morien walked over and sat down on the sofa, "I just found a useful little trick that allows you to bring all your Insect Broods in."

"Really?" Star Rail Morien was a little surprised.

It's really not that he looks down on Jujutsu Morien.

The main reason is that the gap between the two worlds is really big.

The two high-fived and completed the synchronization.

"Huh?!" Star Rail Morien's eyes lit up, "This thing is great."

This is good.

Penacony Although luggage is indeed checked repeatedly, the inspection of passengers themselves is relatively loose.

After all, the people who can go to Penacony are all high-profile people, and they cannot just let the waiters check them over and over again.

No matter how strict the security at the Reverie Hotel is, it is impossible to dissect the guests on the spot.

Moreover, even if Morien is really dissected, Imaginary Space stored in the body between "existence" and "nonexistence" may not be able to be detected.

Just bring whatever you want in the suitcase.

Now that there is a better method, Morien there is no need to gamble on this.

"What good thing?" Mysteries Morien came up and completed the synchronization.

"Oh, you have taken a further step in your life." Mysteries Morien's focus is elsewhere.

Because Potion System, Lord of Mysteries Mori is more sensitive to things like "digestion" and "promotion".

He was thoughtful as he felt Jujutsu Morien's closer understanding of his destiny.

"It is indeed a very useful insight----" He held his chin and lowered his eyelids, "Humanity is kind----"
