Gensokyo's Dimensional Black Shop

Page 46

After Sargeras left, Bai Ye organized the spells of the warlock system he had left behind.

It must be said that although after learning that spells like these would only be recycled once by Bai Ye, and to avoid arousing Medivh's suspicion, Sargeras refrained from touching those Azerothian spells, even if it was purely a warlock-related transaction, it was still an extremely large deal.

This can be seen from the fact that even after Bai Ye had drastically reduced the price, the number in Sa Zong's account was still in the eight figures.

Halfway through organizing, Bai Ye suddenly remembered something he had obtained a long time ago.

"The Five Elements Techniques"!

The legendary item that Bai Ye obtained from the First Emperor was previously shelved because Bai Ye lacked energy, but now...

Bai Ye smiled as he sensed the vast and pure energy within his body, which he called Immortal Essence.

As long as the Five Elements Techniques don't reach the most ridiculous version he imagined, his last weakness—the inability to only unleash map-wide attacks when encountering enemies who have transcended the weakling level—can be overcome.

"System, learn the 'Invisible Technique'."

"Analyzing 'Five Elements Techniques'... Analysis progress 1%... Analysis progress 5%... Analysis progress 13%... Analysis failed, insufficient Origin Coins."

After checking his personal page and finding that his Origin Coins had dropped to 0, Bai Ye didn't hesitate to choose to directly recycle the warlock spells left behind by Sa Zong.

Seeing his Yuan Coin balance instantly grow to nine figures, Bai Ye licked his slightly dry lips.

With such a large investment, it should be enough now, right?

"Parsing continues, parsing progress 14%... parsing progress 66%... parsing progress 100%, parsing complete!"

From the perspective of Black Jeanne watching from the side, the five ancient books in Bai Ye's hand suddenly turned into five balls of light of different colors. They first circled around Bai Ye a few times, and then suddenly all merged into his body.

Bai Ye, who was standing there with her eyes closed, also let out a groan that could easily be misunderstood.

"Ah~"

Xiao Yifang, who had just stepped out of the portal, was stunned. The "good morning" he was about to say to Bai Ye and Black Jeanne d'Arc was stuck in his throat. He turned around and went back to Academy City through the portal, sitting on his bed in a daze.

It seems... I shouldn't go so early in the future?

I never imagined that Brother Baiye and Sister Jeanne's relationship had reached this point...

Before she could think about it, the card she kept close to her body vibrated.

Chapter 110 White - Hand-Crafting a Nuclear Bomb - Night

After holding onto one of her shoulders and explaining that he had simply broken through his limits and couldn't control himself for a moment, and that he and Black Jeanne were definitely not doing anything inappropriate for children, Bai Ye finally let go of her shoulder.

It must be said that Bai Ye spent nearly half a year establishing a righteous and noble image in Yi Fang's mind, and it was quite reliable.

After Bai Ye explained, Yi Fang recalled the scene she had seen in a hurry earlier and immediately realized that she had misunderstood. She blushed and apologized to Bai Ye and the other person.

Although I really wanted to say, "You don't even know the basics of showing your chest, so what are you apologizing for?", I held back because I knew that Accelerator wasn't Matsuko, and that Jeanne Alter was wearing a sword worth 100 million yen. After all, even if Accelerator showed his chest now, it probably wouldn't be as big as hers (laughs).

Maybe if we raise it for a few more years, it will grow bigger?

The misunderstanding was cleared up. Thinking of Sargeras who had just left, Bai Ye looked at Yi Fang curiously and asked, "What urgent matter brings you here so early in the morning?"

“A few days ago, the tree diagram designer made a ranking of the seven existing level 5 superpower users based on calculations, and my ranking is No. 1!” Upon hearing Bai Ye’s question, Yi Fang turned around and threw aside his previous embarrassment, proudly raising his head to accept Bai Ye’s praise: “And the remaining six combined might not be as strong as me!”

"So, besides your chairman and that angel, you're the most powerful one among the millions of residents of Academy City right now?" Bai Ye bent down and picked up Yi Fang. "Congratulations!"

"Hehe~" The little guy smiled smugly.

"Sure, sure. If things continue this way, in another million years or so, you'll be able to barely see my back. Good luck!"

"You shameless Brother Bai!" The little guy made a face at Bai Ye, jumped down from his arms, grabbed a few bags of snacks from the store, and ran towards the portal. "Narcissistic Brother Bai, I'm not talking to you anymore. I asked the chairman for leave today, and he agreed that I don't have to participate in any experiments for the next month. Today is the first day, I'm going out to play..."

"Tsk, young people are so energetic... Be careful."

It's quite noticeable that recently, she no longer exudes the same dejected air she had when we first met, the same air of someone who seemed to be isolating herself in a private space.

At least in terms of fulfilling his promise to take care of the other party, Aleister did a pretty good job.

……

After breakfast, Byakuya spent some time with Jeanne Alter at the shop before heading to Eientei.

Of course, it couldn't be that he was captivated by that doctor "auntie" →_→. He just happened to be free today and wanted to check on how the old man was doing, since he was the one who brought him there.

Slowly walking out of the human village, Bai Ye entered the Lost Bamboo Forest with a leisurely stroll, and then...

Unsurprisingly, I got lost...

It seems that Mokou once said that the Lost Bamboo Forest was protected by the owner of Eientei. Not only does it have the characteristic of making it easy for pedestrians to get lost, but it also has the characteristic that no matter how much damage it suffers, it will eventually be restored to its original state.

After carefully recalling the events and confirming that it was indeed Mokou who had said something similar, rather than it being his imagination, Byakuya looked up at the sky. A point of light appeared in his hand, and within a few breaths, it became so bright that it was impossible to look directly at it.

Have you heard of a miniature sun? A map-wide attack of this caliber could be fired at by the current White Nights for a whole day without them even blinking.

"Stop! Stop! Stop!" A panicked female voice rang out, and a short figure emerged from behind the bamboo grove: "Are you trying to blow up the entire Lost Bamboo Forest?"

Squinting at him, Bai Ye suddenly smiled silently.

Although both are bunny-eared girls, this one in front of me is clearly a bit unworthy of the sexy title "bunny-eared girl" compared to Reisen whom I saw yesterday... Unless you're a lolicon, you'd probably just think she's (innocent) and naive, right?

Emperor Inban: "..."

Ugh—what's wrong with this guy? He inexplicably conjured up a powerful move that looks like it could flatten the whole forest, and now the malice in his eyes is practically overflowing!

"Sir, could you please put your things away first? It would be terrible if something were to happen to you by accident." Thinking that if the Lost Bamboo Forest were really destroyed, Eirin, that scheming old woman, would definitely not let him off easily, Inaba Tei forced a very weak smile on his face.

"You mean this?" Bai Ye weighed the miniature sun in his hand, and under the horrified gaze of the rabbit-eared girl in front of him, he opened his mouth and swallowed it directly.

One second, two seconds, three seconds, no explosion.

Once Inaba Tei was certain that Byakuya hadn't suddenly decided to self-destruct in front of him, but had actually put away that dangerous item, the huge weight in his heart finally lifted.

"Sir, could you please speak properly? Stop scaring me like this." Wiping the cold sweat from his brow, Inaba Tei looked at Byakuya helplessly.

"Um, I have a question. All the rabbits in this bamboo forest must belong to Eientei, right?"

"what?"

"It seems so. I was hoping to make a little commotion to get their attention, but running into you is perfect." Bai Ye smiled at the rabbit-eared girl before him. "Could you please lead the way to Eientei?"

"What are you doing there?⊙⊙" My heart, which had just settled down, jumped again instantly.

"Do I look like a bad guy?" Bai Ye conjured a water mirror and examined his face, his expression somewhat conflicted. "I just sent a patient there yesterday and wanted to check on the situation today."

"So you were the person Yonglin was talking about yesterday." Now that Bai Ye had said this much, the girl finally lowered her guard and skipped ahead to lead the way for Bai Ye.

Chapter 111 A Love-Hate Relationship with a Unique Artistic Style

Bai Ye always felt that ever since he learned his identity, the little girl named Inaba Tei would occasionally glance at him with a... strange look.

There was no malice, and it didn't seem to be because of his previous attempt to use an area-of-effect attack; it was more like he was testing something...?

Tsk, what a little girl, putting on such a profound act, who is she trying to fool!

After muttering a few complaints to himself, Bai Ye lowered his head, focused on the road ahead, and concentrated on getting on his way.

Having someone lead the way is definitely much better than blindly rushing in on your own. After following the Emperor for only a few minutes, just like yesterday, Bai Ye inexplicably turned a few corners and then inexplicably saw Eientei.

"Alright, I'll stop here for you. Go on in now." With a wave of his hand, Inaba Tei, carrying a white rabbit he had picked up by the roadside, turned and went back into the bamboo forest, leaving Bai Ye with a spirited back view.

white night:"……"

I suddenly felt a little envious of her carefree lifestyle.

She knocked on the door, and before long, Reisen opened it and let Byakuya in.

Following Reisen into the living room, Byakuya discovered that the old man was sitting obediently in a chair like a primary school student, with his hands on his knees, "well-behaved" listening to what Yagokoro Eirin was saying.

"Grandpa, you've recovered so quickly?"

“It wasn’t a serious injury to begin with. I’ve seen similar injuries before, so it was handled relatively smoothly,” Yagokoro Eirin replied with a smile.

“Indeed, Doctor Yagi’s medical skills… are very advanced.” Marquis Voban said with a complicated expression.

Bai Ye hummed in agreement... So what exactly happened today? Apart from Reisen, who wears her heart on her sleeve, it feels like everyone she's met since entering the Lost Bamboo Forest is a bit off.

"Now that you're all better, how will the medical expenses be calculated?"

“Really, you don’t need to.” Yagokoro Eirin raised her hand and smoothed the hair that was falling in front of her. “I should thank you for sending such a rare research subject to me.”

"..."

What did you just call an old man?!

"Slip of the tongue. What I meant was that such a rare case is very unusual, even for me." Realizing the grammatical error in her words, Yagokoro Eirin quickly corrected herself, completely ignoring the fact that just a few minutes earlier she had said that the old man's injuries were easy to treat.

"By the way, it's about time now. Would you two like to stay for lunch? You could try Reisen's cooking. Although she was originally just a Moon Rabbit soldier, after special training, the food she makes is surprisingly delicious."

Upon hearing Eirin Yagokoro's words, Reisen, standing to the side, also puffed out her chest and raised her head in agreement, striking a pose that seemed to say, "I'm so proud and I'm so smug." However, no matter how Byakuya looked at her, he felt that her aura was somewhat lacking.

Looking up at the wall clock, Bai Ye saw that it had indeed passed eleven and was about to point to twelve. He nodded.

"Then I'll have to bother you at noon today."

"It's alright... Reisen?"

"Huh?" The bunny-eared girl was taken aback, but then realized what she meant: "Yes, I'll go prepare right away."

After saying that, he ran out in a panic.

……

After agreeing to stay for dinner, Yagokoro Eirin got up and left, saying that one of her experiments had reached a critical juncture, leaving Byakuya and Marquis Voban sitting in the living room.

Not particularly interested in chatting with an old man to begin with, and since the old man himself wasn't very enthusiastic, Bai Ye made up an excuse to leave the living room and started wandering around Eientei.

From the outside, Eientei appears to be just a bamboo house that can normally accommodate a family of several people, but only by actually going inside can one understand just how big it really is.

In this respect, Eientei is strikingly similar to Scarlet Devil Mansion.

As Bai Ye walked and looked around, even without entering the rooms, she still discovered many interesting things, such as wet underwear hanging outside to dry...

Snapped!

Slapping the evil little man in his mind, Bai Ye touched his nose, turned and left the courtyard that was obviously for drying clothes, and walked into another corridor.

As soon as he entered, he heard two somewhat familiar voices...

"Hahahaha, even though I only used one hand, I am still the ultimate winner. You weakling are destined to be suppressed by me!"

Is this... the unkempt princess from Eientei?

"Heh, you only find a sense of accomplishment in these boring things. If you're so capable, go outside and have a real fight. If I don't tear your ass apart this time, I'm not Fujiwara no Mokou!"

Mokou?

So the reason I couldn't find you in the Human Realm today is because you stayed up all night playing games?

Then Kaguya's voice rang out again: "It's not that I want to discourage you, but do you really think that your skills can pose any threat to me? Back in the Lunar Capital, I was known as an all-rounder, an all-rounder, do you understand?"

"Including seducing men?"

"...Die!"

Actually, everything was normal up to this point, except that two friends who had a slightly strained relationship had a minor argument over the outcome of a game.

Not wanting to pry into other people's privacy, Bai Ye turned to leave when the noise inside became strange. However, just as he was halfway through his turn, a "sizzle" sound was heard, and a streak of blood appeared on the window paper in front of him.

Then came the second course, the third course...

The two inside seemed to be in good spirits, but Bai Ye outside was terrified.

Until a piece of flesh resembling a heart smashed through the window paper and flew straight towards him, which he caught, Bai Ye finally couldn't hold back any longer.

"The two inside... are Mokou and Kaguya-hime, right?"

"..." x2

The noise from the room separated by only one wall stopped instantly.

Swallowing hard, Bai Ye squeezed the seemingly still-pulsating object in his hand...

"If I hadn't wasted my time in junior high biology class, I'd be holding one of your hearts right now... Anyway, is it a bit much to go to such lengths to decide the outcome of a game?"

"..." x2

Looking down at her still-intact heart inside her chest cavity, Mokou gave Kaguya a wicked smirk.

In Kaguya's chest cavity, a new heart has already grown halfway.
