Bai Mo returned to his residence on the mountain. He had to admit that Shi had chosen a really good location. In the morning, he could see the sun rising over the sea from the mountain and overlook the entire Alps.

In modern times, this would definitely be the location of a top-tier hotel.

As for the fact that no one noticed the large building that had appeared on the cherry blossom-covered mountain, Bai Mo simply ignored it. With cafes capable of traversing parallel worlds existing, this kind of spatial manipulation was nothing new.

As soon as I pushed open the door, Shi was standing there as if he had been waiting for a long time, as if he had known all along that he would return at this time.

"Welcome back, even though you weren't gone for very long."

"Luckily, we found a clue quickly."

Bai Mo entered the room, and Shi walked straight over and squatted down, seemingly wanting to help him change his shoes. Then, Shi saw Bai Mo quickly lower his body like a cat reacting to a shock, almost kneeling on one knee, stopping Shi's movement.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing Bai Mo's startled expression, Shi covered his face and laughed, taking out a pair of pure white cotton slippers from behind him, and said:

"I just wanted to check if the size was right, and I should be the one saying that, but suddenly it sounded like he was going to kneel down on one knee or something, which really startled me."

Then again, don't high-end hotels offer to change guests' shoes? Why are you so scared? Is it more terrifying than nine hundred thousand enemies?

Bai Mo helped Shi up and sighed softly:

"You said it yourself, it's a service relationship, right? We're not like that. This sudden change is really scary. You could have just told me about it. If you really want to talk about it, I'm practically living under your roof now, how can I let you do something like this?"

Besides, you don't even need to measure to know, right? You're not just trying to see me get scared, are you?

"How could this be? This is an unexpected bonus. Alright, stop standing at the door."

With a pleasant smile, Shi put down her slippers and left without looking back. Only after Bai Mo put the shoes in the shoe cabinet did she realize that the ones Shi had prepared for her seemed to be the same style as hers.

It was probably modeled after a high-end hotel.

With that in mind, Bai Mo and Shi went to the living room together, and Bai Mo told her about his next plan.

"It seems that Chiyome's fate has changed, as expected. We definitely need to get in touch with her. Even without the remnants of the system, she's at least a lucky one who gained power."

Bai Mo still had to reclaim the Primordial Spirit of those who had obtained Magnetic Field Power, just like he had done to Roa back then.

"Hmm, it seems to be just Electric Current Push, otherwise the Takeda Clan would have changed hands long ago. We need to investigate her situation. If she's acting recklessly because of her power, we'll have to reclaim her Primordial Spirit directly."

If someone possesses power but doesn't use it for evil, Bai Mo will usually explain things to them, leave a mark, and then retrieve their Primordial Spirit after they die of old age, placing them in a new world. If someone uses this power to do bad things, he'll just kill them and send them to be a small animal later.

"So, you're planning to go back to your old ways, Doctor?" Shi said jokingly.

Bai Mo nodded. He needed to stay here for a while to repair his soul and investigate the location of the system remnants. Although the system was uncontrollable, it might be collected by the mystical forces of this era.

After all, something that looks mysterious and is completely incomprehensible at first glance holds a huge attraction for them, even if it is not used.

Therefore, he needs to engage with this local society.

"I just can't seem to stay still. Sigh, looks like I'll have to cook for myself again."

She feigned a disappointed look, cupped her face in her hands, and smiled at Bai Mo.

"I'll use my workout time to deal with this. After all, I'm living under your roof, and I won't neglect these things."

Hearing Bai Mo say this, Shi nodded and said, "I'm not going to keep you locked up by my side. Also, don't say things like 'living under someone else's roof,' otherwise things like what just happened will happen much more frequently."

We have a respectful and equal relationship, right? And if you really want to put it that way, we've been living together since you came into this world.

As a part of the Vortex of the Root, Shiki's statement is flawless.

As for Bai Mo going to the outside world, for Shi, this is much better than him sharpening his own bones with a knife. At least with the latter, she really felt sorry for him and couldn't stop him.

As for going out? Before, we couldn't find Bai Mo, this person from outside the world, but now that we've encountered him, then no matter where Bai Mo goes, as long as he's still in this world.

For Shi, it was no different than being by her side.

"Think what you want. Is there anything else?" Bai Mo shrugged.

That's all. Remember to come back on time.

After watching Bai Mo leave, Shi slumped lazily on the table, muttering to himself:

"Sure enough, I'm quite resistant to exchanging shoes. Although this kind of equal treatment is nice, I always feel like I haven't fulfilled my responsibilities. I'll think of other ways to get closer to you later."

Oops, I forgot to tell him I brought back some snacks. Oh well, maybe next time.

Then, Shi took a book from the bookshelf, opened it, and Bai Mo's figure appeared directly on the page.
