Mandarin ducks in pairs

That night, Hinako Akuta left a parchment outside Bai Mo's room that resembled Magic Circuits. It contained her own data; in a sense, she was a "celestial being" of this land, and this was what the Qin Shi Huang initially took.

Clearly, the Qin Shi Huang was very pleased with Landao Tianwu's great contribution, or perhaps it was due to Hinako Akuta's exceptional negotiating skills, but in any case, she got what she wanted.

"Excellent, such a result is truly outstanding. Hinako Akuta, you have been here for many years and made countless efforts. I can see your unwavering determination."

Kuaiji Type Zero, I transfer all ownership of you to her. My subject who has served me the longest, you may rest now.

The Qin Shi Huang readily agreed to Hinako Akuta, thus fulfilling Hinako Akuta only wish.

Hinako Akuta only chatted with Xu Fu in the evening before preparing to leave. She felt no sense of belonging to either Chaldea or Great Qin, and was exhausted both physically and mentally after experiencing countless long years.

"Let's just find some unknown place and live quietly with Lord Xiang Yu," thought Hinako Akuta no Hina. Without even saying goodbye, she took Xiang Yu and set off on a journey to a distant place that very night.

A sound came from the sky, Hinako Akuta looked at Bai Mo with some confusion as he approached.

"You're just going to leave like this? I thought you'd at least settle things in Blue Country before you left."

Bai Mo truly hadn't expected Hinako Akuta to be so impatient. The Blue Country hadn't been destroyed yet, and although the Kuaiji Type Zero wasn't among the strongest, it was still a force to be reckoned with.

If the Blue Country succeeds, the entire world will be doomed. Hinako Akuta still wants to find a place to farm? Don't dream. When she wakes up the next day, she'll probably see Giant God.

There's no reason why Hinako Akuta wouldn't understand this simple principle of mutual dependence.

Hinako Akuta's gaze dimmed slightly. Then, she sat on Kuaiji Type Zero's shoulder and slowly told Bai Mo a story. It was a story unknown to most people behind history.

In this world, Xiang Yu was not a person born with divine strength, but a creation of immortal technology. After the fall of the Great Qin, Kuaiji Type Zero figure from Pan-Human History, rose up to find someone who could end the chaos at the end of the Qin Dynasty.

"He chose a man to be named Liu Ji, and secretly supported him. When he lacked troops, the Kuaiji Type Zero carried out massacres to drive people away from him and make them join him. When he needed supplies, he pretended to form an alliance and gave them away lavishly."

They need talent, so they don't welcome heroes who come to their aid, until finally, for the sake of peace, they are willing to give their lives. And I, he is the only one who can understand me, but no Human Order him."

"Stop, stop, stop insulting my thinking. I really can't understand it, no, don't you think there's something wrong with this thing?"

Hinako Akuta thought her reasoned words would resonate with Bai Mo, but Bai Mo acted as if he had heard some stupid nonsense and wished he could forget about it immediately.

"What's with that expression? I've never told a human anything like this before!" Hinako Akuta stood up, feeling a bit uneasy. A large part of her feelings for Xiang Yu stemmed from this sense of resentment.

They were doing it for world peace, but no one knew it, and in the end, they willingly walked towards defeat.

"It's a good thing you didn't tell anyone else. I don't know what other people would say if they heard this abstract story. It won't bring any praise, and you'd better not tell it again."

Bai Mo waved his hand, while Hinako Akuta, standing to the side, practically ground her teeth to powder. She turned her head away angrily, refusing to say another word.

"Alright, I'm not here to stop you. You're already in the Blue Country's sights, and acting alone isn't the right choice. But the final decision is yours. That's all I have to say."

"Thanks for reminding me," Hinako Akuta said irritably. She had practically told him her deepest secrets, but this was the response she received.

She stormed off, and Bai Mo didn't say anything more about it.

However, Arcueid unusually refrained from finding fault during the communication.

"Sigh, she's quite a pitiful girl. She's already lost him once, and to ask her to send her lover to the battlefield again, facing the possibility of losing him once more, I wouldn't agree either. Just thinking about that kind of pain again would drive me crazy."

I'm actually quite envious of her.

Bai Mo silently watched Hinako Akuta and Kuaiji Type Zero leave, listening to Arcueid's words, unsure how to respond. After a long while, he slowly sighed.

"I'm sorry, Arcueid."

Arcueid was somewhat surprised. This apology stemmed from her inability to reciprocate the feelings and her remorse for causing the worry in her heart. But at the same time, she also realized how significant her own actions were.

She saw Bai Mo's hands clenched tightly, even trembling. Even without exerting any power, the invisible pressure seemed to suck the air out of the surroundings.

"It's okay, coming back is the most important thing. I'm not as fragile as you think. If you really want to make it up to me, then come obediently to the basement of my Millennium Castle."

"Absolutely not that."

"Tsk."

The next day, Bai Mo and the others boarded the airship bound for the capital of the Blue Country. Thanks to that idiot Zhang Xianzhong for bringing so many gadgets over, transportation has become much more convenient.

"So, Lady Yu has really left?"

Xu Fu slumped listlessly in his chair, like an empty-nest father who had just learned his daughter had married. She turned to Bai Mo, who still seemed somewhat doubtful, and asked:

"Boss, are you sure nothing happened between you and Lady Yu?"

"No."

Xu Fu breathed a sigh of relief, but then suddenly looked somewhat dissatisfied.

"To remain completely unmoved by Lady Yu's charm, boss, you're truly... unforgivable! Give me some reaction already! Have you ever been to a monk's cave?"

"What's so charming about her? I only have concerns about her intelligence, and I suggest that if you want your Lady Yu to have a peaceful life, you should abandon this topic."

"Oh, I'm so reluctant to part with her... Lady Yu, that wretched Xiang Yu, if you dare to betray Lady Yu and prevent her from being happy, I will curse you!"

"Don't mention that guy."

Bai Mo waved his hand helplessly. He simply couldn't accept that the Hegemon-King of Western Chu he knew would do such a thing; it was utterly absurd. To the point that he even felt a little reluctant to let Ritsuka continue to be protected by him.

"Hmm? What happened to Xiang Yu?"

Reines asked with some curiosity, and then Bai Mo slowly told her what Hinako Akuta had said. Ritsuka shook her head after hearing it.

"What a tragic couple! Wait, this is just a meal replacement, I can't feel any emotion about it."

However, she soon noticed that Reines was clearly not in a good state. She reached out and poked her, and then Reines, whose body was trembling slightly, laughed.

"Hahaha..."

It was obvious that Sima Yi had appeared. Qin Liangyu, who was traveling with him, was startled by the thoroughly villainous laughter. She looked at the suddenly deranged Sima Zhongda with a puzzled expression.

"Why is Mr. Zhongda laughing?"

"Absurd! I thought that I, Sima Yi, had already committed the utmost shamelessness by betraying the Oath of the Luo River, but I never imagined that Xiang Yu was the truly ruthless one, even more vicious than I am."

"Huh?" Ritsuka and the others were puzzled as they watched Sima Yi laughing loudly. He was born at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty and had also worshipped the portrait of Emperor Gaozu of Han, but he never expected that Xiang Yu and Liu Bang had such an absurd secret.

"Comparing your actions to Xiang Yu's is going too far, isn't it?"

Xu Fu said somewhat displeased, while Sima Yi smiled and waved his hand, shaking his head, "I'm sorry, I was a bit out of line, but I don't think there's anything wrong with what I said."

Xu Fu, and Master, you don't seem to feel that way because you're viewing things from a different perspective. I, for one, am not moved by the story of the Hegemon-King Yu Mei-ren.

All I know is that if Fan Zeng, Fan Zeng the jade pendant three times after the Feast at Feast at Hong Gate, had known that Xiang Yu was thinking this way, he would have been furious!

Just as everyone was belatedly realizing what was happening, an explosion suddenly occurred in the distance. Bai Mo immediately stood up and sighed helplessly.

"I told you not to Independent Action, you idiot!"
