The sense of satisfaction I felt when I boarded the plane was just an illusion.

Even before he arrived at Himeko's house, Gu Yu could already feel his double eyelids starting to tremble.

If Gu Yu had someone to chat with right now, she might be able to pass the time and distract herself from her fatigue.

But now, Theresa says something like, "To prevent Himeko from overworking herself to death at her desk," and runs away with Judas.

According to the instructions left by Theresa, Gu Yu must take the now-conscious Lin Maki back to Himeko's house for a short rest.

Lynn Maggie has recovered some of her spirits, but she doesn't know Maggie's current condition.

At this moment, the purple-haired girl was staring at him with a complicated expression.

Gu Yu knew very well that the girl did not hate or despise him, but in the girl's eyes, he was, after all, the one who killed her grandfather.

Putting yourself in their shoes, it's not easy to remain so rational and not rush up to yell, scream, cry, or make a scene when you see someone kill your loved ones.

This is really troublesome; it seems that Theresa's motivational speech still hasn't helped her recover.

If it weren't for my own plans... ugh, this is so annoying.

And so, the two walked on awkwardly in silence until, five minutes later, Gu Yu seemed to see a somewhat familiar figure flash past her.

But never mind, through the perception of the Imperial Stigmata, he could sense that no Honkai energy was erupting around him.

That said, aside from certain big shots, who would dare to cause trouble at Himeko's house now...?

Hmm, I have a feeling I'll die a horrible death... no, maybe I'll be turned into atoms.

Relying on her inner rage and rant, Gu Yu managed to stay upright and avoid fainting halfway through the journey.

After taking out his key and opening the door, Gu Yu saw Kiana, Bronya in the living room, and Raiden Mei in the kitchen, all of whom were looking at him.

"Ah, Brother Gu is back, hurry up... Huh???"

Kiana, who had originally intended for Gu Yu to comfort Mei, suddenly pointed at Rin next to Gu Yu and shouted.

"Who are you?! Who are you?!"

Why, why did Brother Gu bring a girl back after going out once?!

"Brother Gu Yu".

After observing the expression on Lynn's face, Bronya asked softly.

Who is this?

"Ah... let me think..."

After glancing at Lin, Gu Yu immediately spoke.

"Lin Maki, an A-rank Valkyrie from the Schicksal headquarters. Due to certain circumstances, Dean Theresa has asked her to stay here temporarily."

"Maggie, the second room on the left is empty. You can go in and rest."

"Ok, I see."

After managing a forced smile, Lin bowed deeply to everyone.

"I'll be bothering everyone during this time."

Even if she was worried about other things, Mei could see that the girl's face was full of loneliness and sadness.

It was just like my past self, losing the most important thing in a short period of time.

"Brother Gu Yu..."

Seeing the expression on Lin's face and considering the cause of this incident, Bronya asked softly.

"This young lady is so sad, could it be because of...?"

"Don't think about it too much, Bronya."

After putting down the local specialties she had bought, Gu Yu said indifferently.

"I'll handle Magi's problem. Let's put these things away for now. I brought you some local specialties from ROS...wait, what???"

After putting down his package, Gu Yu saw that the suitcase he had left at the hotel yesterday had actually appeared at Himeko's house.

Why is this box here?

Did this box erect a dimensional barrier on its own?

Could it be that he's just a supporting character, and the protagonist of this book is an alleyway that has awakened the dimensional barrier?

"Oh, this."

Upon seeing the box, Kiana ran over to Gu Yu and whispered a question.

"Brother Gu, tell me honestly, what exactly happened between you and that woman Rita Rossweisse..."

There's nothing there!

Upon hearing Kiana mention this name, Gu Yu immediately summoned the Aurora Veil and teleported the box directly to the junkyard coordinates he had noted down.

"That! Despicable! Maid!"

At this moment, knowing that Rita was the one playing a prank on her, Gu Yu felt completely awake.

This woman approached him immediately upon meeting him to plant a listening device and a GPS tracker, then left without offering any help. And after he had resolved this mess for Tianming, she resorted to this subtle, underhanded tactic…

Hard!

The fist has hardened!

"And also, Brother Gu Yu."

As if remembering something, Bronya picked up the clothes that Fu Hua had given to the group from the sofa.

"The class monitor just came back and said this is the coat you lent her, so she asked us to give it to you."

"Oh, by the way, the class monitor also asked us to tell you—thank you."

"...Then I really thank her!"

To be honest, Gu Yu knew that Fu Hua had absolutely no intention of setting him up.

This somewhat naive woman must have remembered this incident after seeing Rita hand over her luggage.

But the timing is just too bad, isn't it?

If he hadn't known for himself that he was exhausted after a day out, and only heard Bronya and the others recount his story, he would have thought he was some playboy who abandoned his family to go out and philander!

And he actually brought back a new woman!

Fu Hua, I went too easy on her back then.

"That's enough. I thought I could finally get some rest after coming back."

After glancing at the ceiling, Gu Yu felt a sense of despair.

"I really went there to fix the Honkai, you guys believe me."

"These ridiculous things really are all just coincidences."

PS1: The day is over. Thank you to all the readers for your donations.

I was a bit taken aback by the [Waiting for Your Return] leader; I really didn't expect the first alliance leader to be born so quickly.

Thank you again for all the donations and virtual swords.

PS2: Someone mentioned something about assists, so I'll address that here. Please help...

If you haven't ordered it yet, don't. I'll give you a reasonable explanation after this anniversary celebration. In short, don't order it. Just wait for the big shots to crush me. I have my reasons...

PS3: Just one more chapter, then six chapters will be finished, and all the previous missed chapters will be over!

PS4: There shouldn't be many updates to the bounty this time, just...

As long as I can find a time machine, none of this will be a problem, waaaaaah!

Chapter 111. That's why I like you.

After a minute-long explanation, Gu Yu and the three girls finally cleared things up.

After all, this isn't some 555 film set where people argue or fight all the time.

Putting everything else aside, the three of them trusted Gu Yu's character completely.

Rather than...

If Gu Ge/Gu Yu Ge/Gu Yu were more proactive, would Mei/Mei Jie/why would I be in this situation?

"Oh... so that's how it is."

Upon hearing that Rin's grandfather had died in the country of ROS, Mei sighed softly.

"So, someone has indeed sacrificed themselves? Has the culprit this time even considered what she's doing?"

"Manipulating the lives of a nation's citizens, huh? The 'mission of the Kaslana Clan' that my old man mentioned must include taking care of these bad guys."

Listening to their conversation, Bronya maintained her usual indifferent attitude, but Gu Yu clearly noticed that the girl's small hands were trembling.

"Okay, stop overthinking it."

After saying those words lightly, Gu Yu glanced at Bronya.

"This matter has nothing to do with you guys. Now that it's over, don't think about it anymore."

"I was interrupted halfway through what I was saying earlier—look, I brought back all your souvenirs, one for each of you, no need to choose, they're all the same."

After saying this, Gu Yu sniffed the faint aroma of food in the air, then suddenly got up and walked towards the kitchen.

After glancing at Kiana, who was searching for gifts, and Mei, who was rushing to the kitchen, Bronya's expression gradually returned to normal.

The girl knew very well that Gu Yu's words just now, seemingly meant to persuade the three of them not to get involved in the matter.
