Chapter 1124

"Boss, I've finished reading the manga. Can you send us back?"

Raiden Shogun spoke softly.

Logically, she should have taken her younger sister out to tour present-day Inazuma.

After all, this was her first time visiting a world five hundred years in the future.

But since the Boss has a rule against leaving, it's better to return.

I can just tell Shadow about what happened five hundred years later.

"Of course!"

Han Feng nodded with a smile, then moved his hand slightly.

The familiar light portal reappeared before the counter.

"Same time tomorrow—if you want to read more manga, come prepared."

"Understood, thank you, Boss!"

Hearing Han Feng's reminder, Raiden Shogun bowed slightly in gratitude.

This time, though we suffered a bit, the overall gains were substantial. 02

Not only did I see my sister again, but I also received a good reward.

And all of this is thanks to the black-haired boy before me.

"When we get back, I'll build a stone statue for the Boss!"

Raiden Shogun thought to herself.

Letting the Boss be revered for generations is the only way I can repay him.

There are other ways, but now isn't the right time.

We'll deal with it after we survive the Khaenri'ah war disaster.

After a moment of thought, Raiden Shogun looked up and smiled at her younger sister.

"Shadow, let's go back now!"

"Okay!"

Raiden Shadow (past) nodded, not refusing.

Though it was a pity we couldn't go out and explore, just coming here was worth it.

Besides, her current focus was on the future.

From the reactions of her sister and the others earlier, something was clearly off.

So she wanted to find out why.

After bidding farewell to Han Feng, the two sisters leaned close and stepped into the light portal.

When they opened their eyes again, they were back in the Tenshukaku.

"If it weren't for the reward on my body, I'd think this was a dream!"

Looking at the familiar room and the fading light portal, Raiden Shadow also felt a deep sense of wonder.

Even someone who experienced it firsthand felt this way,

let alone anyone else!

If I told others about this, they probably wouldn't believe me, would they?

They might even think I was dreaming!

"My last soul swap was even more extreme—just get used to it."

Raiden Shogun chuckled lightly.

Then she knelt before the table and gestured to her sister.

"You wanted to know what happened five hundred years later? Come, I'll tell you!"

Hearing this, Raiden Shadow immediately perked up.

She quickly knelt down.

Patting Shadow's hand, Raiden Shogun fell silent for a moment, then whispered softly.

"This story begins with the later Khaenri'ah war..."

While the Raiden sisters chatted, at the Youyou Bookshop,

Noel had already prepared lunch.

A variety of delicious dishes were laid out, their aromas wafting through the air.

Drawn by the scent, two figures quickly ran down from upstairs.

"Your nose really is sharp!"

Han Feng ruffled Paimon's hair, teasing her.

"Hehe, it's my unique talent!"

Paimon beamed with pride.

No one understood food better than her!

"Alright, eat quickly—afterward, we head back into the virtual world for more challenges!"

Xiao Ying pulled out a chair and began eating voraciously.

"Yes, yes!"

Hearing Xiao Ying, Paimon snapped to attention.

She joined the frantic eating.

Han Feng chuckled and shook his head, then began eating with the young maid.

Soon, lunch ended.

After helping Noelle finish tidying up, Lumine and Paimon hurriedly rushed upstairs.

With this virtual pod, they didn't even feel like going out to travel anymore.

How could that 140 thing be as fun as this?

Noelle was also incredibly envious of this.

She really wanted to play too.

But she had stayed up late playing last night and had dark circles under her eyes, so she felt too embarrassed to follow them up.

Better to keep working.

So she looked up at Han Feng and said.

"Boss, should I go hang the open sign now?"

"Mm, go ahead!"

Han Feng nodded.

After eating and resting, it was about time to open for business.

Not long after he stepped behind the counter, two figures rushed in from outside the shop.

"Wow, Boss, you're finally open!"

"Why are you here so early? It's only just past noon!"

Seeing Hu Tao and Seeing Qiqi, Han Feng was a little surprised.

By normal logic, shouldn't these two be out having a blast right now?

"It's all because of that car, Boss — that yellow car in Liyue, was it a reward you got from here?"

Hu Tao leaned across the counter, her face full of anticipation as she asked.
