At Kajimi’s words, Fang Xiu went ahead and pulled up the details for [Invisibility Technique].
He was also a little curious. After Kajimi’s Promotion, what kind of changes had her [Invisibility Technique] undergone?
But when he looked, he was slightly stunned.
Fang Xiu still remembered the stats for the previous [Invisibility Technique].
[Invisibility Technique: Upon use, grants thirty minutes of invisibility. If carrying the Succubus’s master, grants fifteen minutes of invisibility.]
But now, it was completely different.
[Invisibility Technique: Upon use, grants twenty-four hours of invisibility. If carrying another person, grants twelve hours of invisibility. The Succubus’s own Invisibility has no cooldown. Carrying a person has a twelve-hour cooldown.]
From thirty minutes, it had jumped straight to twenty-four hours.
And it wasn’t just about carrying her master, but carrying *any* other person.
In other words, no matter who it was, they could now enter an Invisibility State by being in contact with Kajimi.
’Most importantly, the Skill has no cooldown now?’
This meant that as long as Kajimi entered the Invisibility State, she could maintain it for a full twenty-four hours.
Then, once it ended, she could immediately start another twenty-four-hour period.
How was that any different from being permanently invisible?
As long as she wasn’t carrying anyone, Kajimi could stay invisible for twenty-four hours, and then, with no cooldown, immediately go invisible again.
From now on, Kajimi could always stay by Fang Xiu’s side without fear of being discovered.
After all, with Kajimi’s Invisibility, there was no one who could see through it.
Even professional detection equipment would be completely unable to sense Kajimi’s presence.
"From now on, Kajimi can always be by Master’s side!"
Seeing the delighted surprise on Fang Xiu’s face, Kajimi was also overjoyed.
Before, with only thirty minutes, she usually had to stay far away from Fang Xiu, finding a place to hide.
But now, she didn’t have to worry about that at all.
Twenty-four hours of invisibility with no cooldown was more than enough for Kajimi to provide close-quarters protection.
"Yeah!"
Fang Xiu nodded emphatically.
With Kajimi around, he believed incidents like the one with Principal Tian Rui could be avoided in the future.
"Kajimi, we should celebrate!"
Fang Xiu was also incredibly happy.
Kajimi’s Promotion this time was a huge success, with outstanding results.
"Okay, Master! I’ll go cook!"
Kajimi nodded eagerly.
Fang Xiu smiled. "Alright. Steak and red wine!"
In the current world, due to the scarcity of resources, things like red wine were true luxury items.
Fang Xiu had some at home, left behind by his father.
He was usually reluctant to drink it.
But tonight, he had to celebrate for Kajimi!
It was a night of revelry, though there were only two of them.
Still, they were incredibly happy and excited.
「The next day.」
When Fang Xiu woke up, he found himself lying in his own bed.
After last night’s celebration, it seemed... he had passed out drunk.
He looked at his clothes...
"Hmm?"
Fang Xiu froze.
These weren’t the clothes he was wearing last night.
Although Kajimi wasn’t beside him, his memory of what happened after he got drunk was a blur.
’It seemed... he had been jumping and dancing with Kajimi. Then they had leaned against each other, drinking. And in the end, he passed out in Kajimi’s arms?’
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Fang Xiu remembered that just as he was passing out, Kajimi had flashed a wicked smile.
’It’s over, my innocence is lost! Don’t drink and drive, don’t drive if you’ve been drinking—how many times have I said it? Why doesn’t Kajimi ever listen? Not only does she want to ’drive’ herself, but she also wants to take me for a ride!’
Fang Xiu had no idea what exactly had happened last night.
Whether Kajimi had ultimately taken advantage of his drunken state and taken him "for a ride"...
Fang Xiu had absolutely no memory of it.
"Master, you’re finally awake!"
Just then, Kajimi walked in, carrying a bowl of soup.
"Kajimi, nothing... happened last night, right?"
Seeing Kajimi, Fang Xiu felt that something was a bit off.
"Last night? Master, you don’t remember anything at all?"
Kajimi looked at Fang Xiu, her eyes filled with a hint of grievance.
’This made Fang Xiu think... something definitely happened, right?’
"I... What did I do?"
Fang Xiu’s brow furrowed slightly.
’What on earth happened?’
"Master, you really are naughty. After doing *that kind of thing* to me, you still... you still have to ask me?"
An annoyed expression appeared on Kajimi’s face.
This was something that would have been impossible before.
’It’s over!’
This time, Fang Xiu felt like it was truly over.
In the past, no matter what he did, Kajimi would never show an ounce of anger.
But this time, Kajimi was actually angry.
"I... I’ll take responsibility."
After a moment’s thought, that was the only sentence Fang Xiu could come up with.
"Responsibility? What kind of responsibility?"
Now, it was Kajimi’s turn to be stunned.
"Huh?"
Fang Xiu was taken aback.
’What is going on?’
’Could you at least be clear about it?’
"Just... what exactly happened last night? I drank too much and don’t remember anything!"
Fang Xiu thought hard, but still couldn’t recall a thing.
"Master, don’t think about it anymore. Just drink this soup. It’s to... restore your kidneys..."
Kajimi brought the bowl of soup to Fang Xiu.
Fang Xiu had just taken the soup, but his hand immediately paused. "Re... Restore my kidneys?"
’Holy crap. After what happened last night, was my performance... not satisfactory?’
’And she’s already serving me kidney-restoring soup the very next day?’
"Mhm, it can also improve your vision and cleanse your liver. And I think it helps with hangovers, too."
Kajimi said with great earnestness.
Fang Xiu was speechless.
’What kind of soup is this?’
’Not only can it restore your kidneys, but it also improves vision and cleanses the liver? Fine, but it even has a hangover-curing function?’
"I... I just found it online. It looked pretty good and very suitable for Master."
Kajimi said seriously, "So I made it this morning. Luckily, we had all the ingredients at home."
"Suitable for me? Be honest, what did I do last night?"
Fang Xiu said with a sense of helplessness.
’Have all my years of healthy living been for nothing?’
But Fang Xiu felt refreshed and full of energy!
"Master, you threw up all over me last night. You forgot even that?"
Kajimi looked at Fang Xiu with those same aggrieved eyes.
It made Fang Xiu feel a little guilty.
But when he heard what Kajimi said, Fang Xiu froze.
Then, he burst out laughing.
"You’re saying... I threw up all over you last night? And nothing else happened?"
Fang Xiu confirmed one more time.
"Mhm. I was originally going to help you back to your room to sleep, but then you threw up. It went all over me, and all over you too. I had to change your clothes, wipe you down, take a shower myself, and wash the clothes... It was a whole ordeal all night, while Master slept so soundly."
That night had been utterly exhausting for Kajimi.
Fighting a Demon Beast wasn’t this tiring.
"That... must have been hard on you, Kajimi!"
Fang Xiu was a bit embarrassed.
He hadn’t realized so much had happened last night.
"Hehe, it’s alright, Master. I was just tricking you. Although everything I said was true, Kajimi isn’t angry!"
Kajimi gave a playful smile, a triumphant look on her face.
"You...!"
Fang Xiu shook his head, feeling a bit helpless.
"But Master seemed to be thinking some naughty thoughts just now. Hmm, your mind isn’t so pure either, Master!"
Kajimi looked at Fang Xiu with a mischievous grin.
"Ahem, what are you talking about?"
Fang Xiu was rather embarrassed.
"Don’t worry, Master. Kajimi would never do something to you while you’re unaware. Kajimi will definitely use her Charm to make sure Master is happy and willing!"
Kajimi guaranteed with a proud expression.
As she proudly puffed out her chest, Fang Xiu couldn’t help but think... a Succubus truly had the assets to back it up.
In every aspect, she was filled with Charming Power.
Her every move could make one’s heart skip a beat.
"Master, hurry and drink your soup!"
Seeing Fang Xiu still in a daze, likely from the alcohol, Kajimi urged him on.
"Ah? Okay!"
Fang Xiu nodded slightly and took a sip of the soup.
"Hmm... Corn and pork rib soup?"
Fang Xiu looked up and asked Kajimi.
"Eh? Master, you’ve had it before? Have you been secretly trying to restore your kidneys in the past?"
Kajimi hadn’t expected him to guess the corn and pork rib soup she had prepared in an instant.
"Well... it’s very good!"
Fang Xiu said helplessly.
The soup was delicious, but he had never heard of corn soup being able to cure a hangover, let alone restore one’s kidneys!
He added, "Next time you cook, pay less attention to the ’health benefits’!"
"Oh! I got it, Master!"
Kajimi nodded.
RING RING RING!
Just as Fang Xiu finished his soup, his phone rang.
It was another... unknown number.
’Why have there been so many unknown numbers lately?’
Fang Xiu looked at the display; the caller ID showed it was from Qingzhou City.
So he answered it.
"Hello, Brother Fang!"
A man’s voice came from the other end.
Fang Xiu paused. "You are?"
’Calling me Brother Fang so familiarly.’
’He’s not calling to borrow money, is he?’
"It’s me, Luo Xing!"
The person on the other end said quickly.
"Luo Xing?"
Fang Xiu thought for a moment and finally remembered.
He was the chubby guy from the Awakening test who got the A Level Archer Talent but couldn’t aim straight.
A classmate, the one who sat in front of him.
"It’s been so long, I thought you’d been killed by a Demon Beast!"
He was pretty familiar with the fatty.
He just hadn’t expected the guy to change his number and not contact him at all. Fang Xiu had almost forgotten about him.
"Ugh, don’t even mention it. Weren’t we training in the school’s Gate World before? Later, when you and the campus belle both went out to train, I thought I’d give it a try too. But the moment I told my dad, he threw me into a fully-enclosed training camp. Oh my god, it nearly killed me!"
Luo Xing was brimming with grievances.
"As long as you can aim straight now!"
Fang Xiu joked.
"Huh? Ahem, Brother Fang, don’t mess with me! I’ve always been able to aim straight, and my shots are crazy powerful!"
After this period of training, as an Archer with an A Level Talent, the current Luo Xing had quickly become a formidable one.
"That’s good, then. You wouldn’t call me unless you needed something. What’s up?"
Fang Xiu knew that if he was calling now, it must be for a reason.
And Fang Xiu could roughly guess what it was about.
"Well, there is something I wanted to ask for your opinion on, Brother Fang!"
Luo Xing didn’t beat around the bush.
He got straight to the point.
"Is it about the Demon Beast Battlefield?"
Fang Xiu asked in return.
"Huh? Brother Fang, you know about it too?"
Luo Xing was stunned, but then it clicked. ’Right, Brother Fang is a super-strong SSS Level, of course he’d know. I just wonder what his thoughts are?’
"I will go!"
Fang Xiu didn’t say much, just those three words.
"Alright, then I’ll go too!"
With that answer, there was no need to ask anything else.
If Fang Xiu was going, there was definitely something to be gained. After being classmates for three years, the fatty knew Fang Xiu quite well.
He never went anywhere without a good reason, and only if there was a benefit to be gained!
