Chapter 40
Chapter 40: It’s M-M-Moving?
In conclusion, Baiyi had managed to acquire quite a lot this time. However, there was still one problem left. It was true that he had gotten his hand on many precious materials and consumables but when it came to money, he did not manage to make a lot. Most of the consumables were meant to be used on a Fighter so basically, Mia would not be able to use them at all. Baiyi who already had an abundance of energy did not need to use them as well. Even if he was to sell it, he did not have any connections in that world to do that… So in the end, his financial situation did not really change at all.
Tsk… Why didn’t that Dole girl bring more money out with her… Baiyi ranted inwardly. Immediately, his words managed to provoke the scolding of the other Voidwalkers.
“Erm… Mr Hope, don’t you think you are being a little unreasonable? Undine is a junior you know. She doesn’t mean you harm and yet you have stolen all of her supplies. You even stole her underwear as well! How could you say that now?”
Don’t put it that way! It’s all a misunderstanding okay? It was just a pure coincidence! I did not even mean to steal those useless pieces of clothing! Baiyi defended himself vehemently.
In the end, he spent the whole night talking about all sorts of nonsense with the Voidwalkers one after another. Soon, the sky gradually turned bright. A small grunt could be heard coming from Mia as she slowly woke up and rubbed her eyes that were still filled with drowsiness. She did not notice that one of the strap of her nightgown had slipped down from her shoulder, revealing a sweet and soft, white shoulder. Turning her gaze towards Baiyi who was sitting by the window, she let out a smile and greeted him softly, “G’morning, Mr. Hope.”
For a short moment, she did nothing else other than snuggling the hammerhead doll that she was hugging all night long. Reluctantly, she placed the doll next to the pillow properly before taking off her nightdress in front of Baiyi to put on the white academy uniform. Raising her right leg up, she pulled the white silk stockings from her heel to her thigh, wrapping her slender and straight long leg up tightly. After that, she did the same thing to her left leg before going out to fetch a pail of water to wash up. Finally, she used two white ribbons to tie up her ponytails, transforming herself from the sleepy lazy little cat to the sweet and cute Mia-chan.
Throughout the whole process, Baiyi instinctively felt awkward and turned his head away, unlike those other Hentai-Walkers who enjoyed watching the exciting scene of a pretty girl changing her clothing…
To Mia, Baiyi was her family now so she had let her guard down around him
“Well then, Mr Hope, I’m off to the class now!” Mia, who was done freshening herself up, hugged a few books to her chest and made a gesture to leave.
“Wait a minute!” Baiyi stopped her in her tracks and handed her the box of cat paws cookies, “Bring this to your class to eat.”
“Ah… I’ve almost forgotten about it!” Playfully sticking her tongue out, Mia quickly reached over and took the box from him. At once, a confused look appeared on her little face. In a low tone, she asked, “Eh? Why is this warm?”
“I’ve casted a simple Heating Spell inside. Isn’t it more delicious when it’s warm?” Baiyi answered. That was a spell that he invented out of boredom the night before.
“You are so nice! Mr. Hope!” Mia beamed. Not caring about the heavy things on her arms, she forcefully rubbed her little face against the rough rattan of Baiyi’s chest before she left for class in joy.
After her silhoutte gradually disappeared from sight, a person complimented in Baiyi’s mind, “Sigh… Look at how cute Mia-chan is! You are so lucky, Sir Hope. I also want to be hugged by Mia-chan!”
This is not the time to say these kinda things! Time for serious matter now! Baiyi announced as he strode towards Mia’s bed and picked up the hammerhead doll that was still lingering with Mia’s scent and indented from her weight.
The Pseudo-Descent Technique yesterday had given me some inspiration. Since we happened to have the suitable ingredients with us now, I want to try to enchant that technique onto this doll,Baiyi explained his idea to the Voidwalkers. Then, as long as Mia carries this with her, we can always go to her side anytime we want.
“That’s a brilliant idea! But I’m going to stop you right there. I need to correct you on a mistake that you made,” the Archmage replied. “The technique’s name is the Six realms Five Planes – The Divine Figure of KuriKara , not some Pseudo-Descent technique!”
Hello? Is this the correction that you meant? By the way, where exactly did you copy the name from? I’m well familiar with your naming standard and taste you know. It’s not possible for you to come up with such a cool name, my dear teacher! Baiyi retaliated inwardly.
“It’s true that this is a good idea to protect Mia but don’t you think it’s a little too wasteful?” The Alchemist asked next.
There’s no such thing as being wasteful . Baiyi replied. Such things are only worthy of their value if they are being used. There’s no point in keeping them in a storeroom and not doing anything with them. I’m not a hamster!
“No no no. That’s not what I meant,” The Alchemist quickly corrected. “What I mean is that using such expensive materials to enchant a spell onto a plushie doll is quite wasteful. At the very least, it should be an armor or something, right?”
” This doll is currently the most suitable item. ” Looking at the silly hammerhead doll that was in his hands, he continued, This thing is very easy to be carried around and Mia is also very fond of it. Not only that, such an ordinary thing would not attract too much attention. More importantly, after the spell is enchanted on it, the technique won’t need my continuous supply of energy. I could barely split a small part of my consciousness to control this small item, let alone a whole armor.
So, besides the Aurora’s Mercy, I will enchant more spells onto the doll as well. These magic would help the user to cope with all sorts of critical situations, Baiyi carried on explaining. At the same time, he cut open the snowy white tummy of the hammerhead doll and got ready to start his work.
Here was what he planned to do. He planned to turn the hammerhead doll into a super powerful magical tool and equip it with a Voidwalker who could fully utilize the doll’s power so that there was no need to worry about whether Mia knew how to operate it or not.
“Are you trying to turn this doll into a weapon? I didn’t know that you’re so fond of this thing!” The Lich asked jokingly.
Fond of? Well, not really. Gently stroking the soft and fluffly doll, Baiyi replied in a serious manner, I just have a peculiar feeling that this doll would determine our destiny in the future… Ahhhhh.. Who knows? It’s probably just an illusion anyway.
As he was speaking, he activated his Mana and extracted the Chi Prowess from the Chi Restoration Potion and Chi Restoration Crystal, forming a sticky energy sphere in front of him. He continued to pour the Behemoth Spinal’s Powder and White Dragon’s Blood into the sphere before using his Mana to guide them to blend and form to become the pigment needed for formations.
Carefully, he guided the sphere of pigment and drew multiple exquisite yet small formations inside the doll. Those Magical Formations were interconnected with each other, forming a group of complicated Magical Array. Baiyi was highly confident that nobody else in the world, other than the Voidwalkers, would be able to understand the function of the Magical Array.
After stitching the belly of the doll up, Baiyi used his magic to dry and soften the doll. Once again, the hammerhead doll returned to its previous state of fluffiness. Nobody would have ever thought that a fluffy ordinary doll like that would have an exquisite power hidden inside it.
After he was done, Baiyi could not help but be reminded of all of the precious materials that he had poured into the belly of the doll. Sighing, he breathed, “I guess, this must be the most expensive plushie doll in this world, right?” Having said that, he began to gradually transfer his consciousness into the formation of the doll, activating the skill while asking the Walkers at the same time,Alright! Now who wants to have a test drive on this?
“Me! Me! Me! Let me have a go!” A voice could be heard offering himself up enthusiastically. That voice belonged to the 29th Walker called the Engineer. “Knowledge wise, I’m the most scientifically equipped and not scared of any experiment. You have to let me try it!”
Alright! I have faith in your professionalism, Baiyi agreed as he passed the command of the consciousness to the Engineer. Not long after, the hammerhead doll that way lying still on the table a moment ago could be seen wriggling suddenly. The tail was twisting non stop, as if it was trying to turn its body over. But, as the fins were made shorter to look cute on the doll, he still could not move much despite how hard he tried.
“Hmmm… Looks like the mobility is not that good… Well, I guess we can’t do much about that. Fortunately, there’s no other abnormality. Seems like this turned out to be quite successful. Alright, Sir Engineer, you can return now!” Baiyi proclaimed out loud as he tried to pick the doll back up.
Without warning, the hammerhead doll that was lying still like a dead fish a moment before suddenly became as agile as a loach and jumped to the side, slipping out from Baiyi’s hand. Then, the Engineer’s voice could be heard speaking in his mind, “Please wait a moment more. We should be patient in order to test the stability of this experiment!”
You do have a point. But if we maintain this state, it will deplete the energy of the formation. We don’t have anymore materials left to remake another one. We need to be more thrifty. Return first!Baiyi felt thankful towards the Engineer for being willing to support his experiment. Again, he tried to pick up the doll but the doll leapt up, dodging his hand again.
“Sir Hope! We really must be patient in an experiment like this. Please let me stay here till the next morning!” The Engineer said righteously.
Hmmm… Why does this sound suspicious? Baiyi started to give it a second thought. This is Mia’s favorite doll and everytime when she’s back from her class, she would snuggle and kiss it the whole day. Not only that, she would even hug it to sleep the entire night… Wait a minute… Does this mean that…
As he started to piece all the puzzles together, Baiyi instantly gave a hard punch on the doll’s belly and forcibly retrieved the Engineer’s consciousness back. Not long after, the wail of the Engineer could be heard in the Void, “AAAAHHHHHHHHH! DAMN IT! MY PLAN FAILED! MIA-CHAN’S KISSES! MIA-CHAN’S SNUGGLES! MIA-CHAN’S HUGS! I WANT THEM ALL! GIVE THEM BACK TO ME!”
I KNEW IT! THIS HENTAI BASTARD!
