Upon hearing this, Ais set off and walked over.
After sitting down, Ais looked at Baili...
"I want to give you a surprise..."
"That was a great success."
"That's good……"
Ais lowered her head.
Baili quickly lifted the girl's chin.
“Your efforts are worthwhile, Ais.”
Gently touch the soft lace and grasp the lovely bow.
Baili's reward for Ais has only just begun.
Chapter 132 An Invitation from the Demon King of the Underworld? No, it's a Signal of Conquest!
Late at night.
After confirming that Ais was fast asleep on the bed, Baili picked up the clothes scattered all over the floor.
A dress adorned with lace, a coat with cute bows, and a black inner layer that matches the "landmine" style outfit, exuding a pure and alluring vibe.
It's clear that Ais really put in a lot of effort beforehand.
This also leads to the conclusion that Ais is highly adaptable.
As an adventurer who fights monsters in dungeons and explores dangerous places, it's normal for Ais to have this kind of adaptability.
After all, someone who panics when faced with trouble and loses their composure when encountering problems can never become stronger.
Baili took all the clothes to the washroom, waiting for the maids to clean them the next day.
Then Baili took her phone and went to the bedroom. It was 8 p.m.
It's not actually late, but Mai Sakurajima, who went to school, still hasn't returned, which is a bit worrying.
I was just about to make a call when I received a text message.
The letter was sent by Mai Sakurajima.
After I helped the younger colleagues photocopy some documents, they invited me to a gathering. I apologize for not having time to contact them beforehand.
In addition to this text, Mai Sakurajima also posted a photo of herself with her junior classmates in front of a restaurant.
Mai Sakurajima seems to have a group of fans at school...
Moreover, as a third-year student, she had a strong sense of responsibility, so she did not ignore the requests of her juniors.
After replying with a message to be careful, Baili prepared to have a drink and watch some TV.
This kind of daily routine is a kind of fun for him.
However, before I could even head to the kitchen to find the wine in the refrigerator, a new text message caught my attention.
Baili's gaze swept across the screen.
The sender was not Mai Sakurajima, but three girls who had just exchanged contact information—Natsumi Nanakusa, Asuna Yuuki, and Momo Ayase.
Is this considered synchronicity?
The phenomenon known as the synchronicity effect refers to the seemingly meaningful coincidence or simultaneous occurrence of two or more events, which in fact do not have a causal relationship.
However, this world is not an ordinary dimension, so there must be another reason why three people sent messages at the same time.
Upon opening it, the first thing you see is seven herbs.
I had a strange feeling again while I was taking a walk today... I wonder if Brother Baili has noticed it too.
Next was Ayase Momo
Grandma told me she's received a new commission! But she won't be leaving for a few days! Do you have any free time to meet, Mr. Baili?
Next up is Asuna Yuuki.
[After encountering a monster and being saved by Baili-kun, I've done a lot of research online. Maybe I have a constitution that makes me prone to encountering evil spirits? I wonder if Baili-kun could come out and talk about this topic? Please…!]
After reading it, Baili realized that these things might all be related to evil spirits.
This city probably has a quality that attracts evil spirits...
Baili then responded to each of them.
After telling Nanagusa to investigate carefully, Hyakuri did not immediately accept the invitation from Yuuki Asuna and Ayase Momo.
His response was that he would contact you at the appropriate time.
Baili's place isn't a jack-of-all-trades shop; there's no time to solve every girl's question.
Less than a minute later, Baili received a second message from the girls.
Qicaoqi: [I'll investigate this thoroughly and then come back to find Brother Baili!]
Asuna Yuuki: [If Hyakuri-kun is busy, I won't bother you any longer. I'll wait for Hyakuri-kun here.]
Ayase Momo: [No problem, we'll talk about it when Mr. Hyakusato is free. But it would be best if you contacted me in the morning, when Grandma definitely won't be around and she won't find out.]
Putting everyone else aside, Ayase Momo was very purposeful; not wanting to be discovered by her grandmother, she only wanted to be alone with Hyakuri.
After finishing, Baili put away his phone.
He heard footsteps as he walked into the kitchen.
Baili then held his wine and looked at the stairs leading to the second floor.
Soft light spilled from the wall lamps in the second-floor corridor, gently falling on the wooden steps.
Chun Ji, dressed in loose pajamas, was slowly descending the steps.
The light outlined the contours of her body hidden beneath her sheer nightgown, revealing a perfectly sculpted S-curve.
Baili looked at the other person and spoke up.
"Haruhime?"
"Lord Baili, I think it's you too..."
"Wake you up?"
"No, rather I haven't slept at all."
"Looks like Ais and I disturbed you."
"Huh? This, that... no, it's not like that!"
Chunji quickly waved her hand in denial, and the fluffy ears on her head trembled.
Baili did not continue to tease the fox-woman girl.
"The weather is nice tonight, let's go sit in the courtyard."
"Ok."
Chunji nodded.
Baili then raised his wine glass.
"Want a drink?"
"No, no need, milk is fine..."
"no problem."
"Please go ahead, Lord Baili. I can do it myself."
Chunji, who hadn't asked Baili to pour her milk, hurriedly ran to the kitchen.
Baili didn't say anything and went to the courtyard first.
At this moment, the moon is bright and the stars are few; only a few scattered stars can be seen dotting the night sky, twinkling with a faint light.
Chunji quickly came to Baili's side and sat down on the floor to his right.
The fox-girl's bare, white feet swayed gently in the air, feeling the light breeze and appearing quite content.
"Lord Baili, what are your plans for the future?"
"Right now, we're mainly looking at whether you have the potential to continue growing."
"If not..."
"They will be abandoned."
Baili said bluntly.
This made Chunji's shoulders tremble slightly.
"You don't need to worry about this. It is precisely because I see your potential that I allow you to embark on your destiny and gain power."
"Do I also have potential in Lord Baili's eyes?"
"Yes, a beast-eared girl with a support ability that can help someone increase their rank is quite rare."
"It feels like Lord Baili is joking..."
Chunji took a sip of milk.
Bai Li also tasted a sip of the chilled wine, and then asked Chun Ji about it.
"In the next battle, you can try giving Ais more enhancements, such as multiple enhancements."
"I don't think the method Lord Baili mentioned will necessarily be effective. The strengthening power will most likely overwrite the previous effects."
It's like a MOBA game.
Many buffs cannot be stacked.
Otherwise, the effects would be terrifying.
"Of course, I think Lord Baili's suggestion is worth a try, to explore more ways to use abilities, which is what Lord Baili told me."
"You are very clever, Chunji."
"All of this is based on Lord Baili's kindness."
