Don't force me to use my right fist.

When Sōyū heard the question, he was taken aback for a moment, and then rubbed his temples in distress.

"Your question is quite strange. I've rarely thought about this kind of thing before, even though I consider myself a pretty homebody."

Zuoyou took a deep breath. The time he thought about going back was back when he first transmigrated to the world of Minecraft. whl tried almost every possible way to go back, but unfortunately, it was all in vain.

He was in despair for a long time because of this, and then he buried these thoughts deep in his heart. Whenever he thought of these things, he would try to numb himself by farming, fighting monsters and collecting items.

It wasn't until Samo's appearance brought a glimmer of warmth to his lonely life that he snapped out of his somewhat delusional state. Now, reminded by Kaguya, Sayu, who has once again become aware of this issue, realizes that he now has more options and possibilities if he wants to return to the world he was truly born in. For one thing, he could always ask Shiki; who knows, she might be able to come up with a solution.

"So, if there's a way, I'd probably choose to go back. I don't want to forget my roots, and I really do miss home." whl

Saku answered Kaguya's question somewhat seriously, but quickly snapped out of that state.

Chapter 578 My Reading of the Spring and Autumn Annals

What Sōyu was talking about was what he was going to do next. Kaguya's words reminded him that if he had the chance to go back, he would definitely not give up that opportunity.

There's a saying that goes something like this: if someone becomes successful and doesn't go back to their hometown to show off, isn't that just like wearing fine clothes in the dark?

When Sawa made this plan, he failed to notice that the girl in front of him had turned pale for a moment.

"Then, will you come back?"

Kaguya and Saya are concerned with completely different things. Now that his departure from this world is decided, whether he can return is uncertain.

After all, this guy is completely alone in this world. He may care about quite a few people, but Kaguya doesn't think many people could keep him here.

He might stay in this world for a long time because of something or someone, but if he wants to leave, that's a done deal.

"Come back? That depends on whether it's possible, but it seems quite difficult, considering I still can't even go back to my previous world."

Sōyū lowered his head and thought for a moment. If he had finished everything, then he really didn't seem to have any reason to come back. His home wasn't here, and compared to this place, he preferred a more peaceful world. Without strange and messy monsters, even just being able to farm would make him feel more relaxed.

The only thing that worried Zuo You was Zuo Mo. Since she was able to escape from the Minecraft world, it was entirely possible she would chase after him again from this world. However...

As for the others, Sawa didn't think they couldn't get by without him. If all else failed, he said that he would definitely take care of Kaguya first.

After settling things with the Church of Truth, Sawa felt that the only thing he needed to do here was repay Shiki's kindness. She had previously said that he just needed to help her with that matter in a few days.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I can't go back yet. Even if I were to go back, I would at least have to finish what I'm doing first, and then I would naturally let you know first."

Parting is always a sorrowful thing, and Zuoyou naturally knew this.

"Are you really okay with not getting involved in the signing of those documents at home?"

Regardless, Sawa was still somewhat concerned about this. He pinched his chin and looked into Kaguya's eyes before asking the question.

"Anyway, that woman will be back tomorrow, so there's no problem leaving the work to her."

While Kaguya was preoccupied with how to keep Saya around, she casually replied with a question, but that one sentence piqued Saya's curiosity.

Sawa, who had always referred to Kaguya as "that woman" and had never even heard her mention her mother's name once, suddenly became interested. Asking about this seemed rather pointless.

He had always wanted to learn more about his elusive mother, but he was always preoccupied with other things, so he gradually forgot about it. Now that he finally had the chance, Sōyū felt it was worthwhile to get to know her.

"Yes, it's her. Her flight is tomorrow. Because I've been in danger lately, Lingxian told her about my situation, so she came back early. She was originally supposed to return in three days."

When the topic turned to her mother, Kaguya became reluctant to discuss it. What was there to say about that woman who was always busy with her own affairs? Even if her mother had arrived early, what difference would it make?

Moreover, if she were to find out about Saya's existence, it would be questionable whether she could even remain in the Scarlet Devil Mansion.

"Where does she live? If I remember correctly, the Yuzaki family all..."

Do you really think I'm living with you because I have nowhere else to live?

Kaguya reverted to her old tone and directly retorted to what Saya hadn't finished saying.

"Well, it's fine if she comes back. It's not a particularly bad thing for you, after all, she is your mother."

Saku wanted to remind her that she had said she would change, but she changed back in no time. However, seeing that Kaguya really didn't want to talk about these things, he decided to let it go.

More than that, Sawa wanted to ask another, rather crucial question.

"By the way, what's your mother's name again? I asked you last time, but you didn't answer me."

Sawa remembered that Kaguya had been just as angry when he asked her this question last time. Could it be that their mother-daughter relationship was really that bad?

Kaguya took a deep breath. If it were anyone else, she would have had him thrown out of her sight long ago, but even Saya still made her furious.

Doesn't this guy know I don't want to talk about these things? Why is he still asking?

She had initially intended to give his toes a good whack with her little feet in their leather shoes, but when Kaguya lifted her leg, she hesitated, wondering if that would be inappropriate.

She would never consider this with anyone else, but when it comes to Saya, someone she doesn't want to admit but cares about immensely, even she becomes a little cautious.

After hesitating for a moment, Kaguya stomped off her little leather shoes and then stomped her foot on Saya's instep, wishing she could stand up from her chair and use her body as weight to press him down and teach him a lesson.

Kaguya grumbled through gritted teeth at Saya, but all she saw on his face was a mixture of confusion and a touch of shyness.

I even resorted to the underhanded tactic of stepping on his toes, so why is he only reacting this much?

Sōyū was even more confused. He looked down and felt Kaguya's small black foot rubbing against the back of his shoe. The sensation was similar to a massage, which made him even more bewildered.

Some things are better left unsaid. Why go through all this strange trouble? Is this some kind of honey trap she's using to try and shut me up?

He, Zuo You, is not some pervert who likes the soles of the feet; he's a scholar who has studied the Spring and Autumn Annals!

Chapter 579 Is there a next time?

Since Kaguya didn't want to bring up the matter, Saya had no choice but to give up. Fortunately, get out of class was about to end, so he stopped asking such questions.

Just as Saya had shut his mouth, waiting for Kaguya to start a new topic, he suddenly seemed to remember something. Ignoring the fact that Kaguya was stomping on his instep more and more forcefully, he beckoned to her, signaling her to come closer and stop thinking about massaging his feet.

"I already told you that if you wanted to know, you could look it up yourself. I didn't stop you. Yoko, thankfully Saya didn't say anything to her, so this matter is considered closed."

Who told him to make me unhappy first?

"That's not what I meant. There's something I need to discuss with you. Well, a friend of mine might be moving in. You're kind of my tenant now, so I was originally going to tell you when you were with the class monitor, but she's not around right now, so I'll just mention it to you now."

Sawa himself didn't know why he sounded somewhat unsure when he said this, as if he foresaw some terrible consequences.

Kaguya's expression, which had just begun to change slightly, suddenly froze again, as if she didn't know how to manage her facial expressions at all.

Slowly putting on her little leather shoes, Kaguya forced a smile that she wasn't sure could even call a smile.

Even though the tone was exactly like Kaguya's, Saiyu felt a strange chill run down his spine.

"Well, you know her, the girl I told you about last time, the one lying in the hospital bed, the one I asked you to look after. She has no family or friends left, and she can only rely on..."

Sawa scratched his head somewhat sheepishly and explained, then felt a slight pain coming from his toes.

"Is that so? Are you someone I know?"

Fortunately, Saya's defense is truly maxed out; otherwise, if it were an average guy, he probably would have needed to see a doctor about his toes after this attack.

"Kaguya, are you actually against this?"

Even if Saya was incredibly obtuse, he could still see the displeasure written all over Kaguya's face. If it were a guy he was bringing in, that would be one thing, but it was just a female friend coming to stay for a while; did she really need to make such a fuss?

"No, how could I dare? This is your home, Mr. You. I'm just a temporary tenant. What reason could I possibly have to say such a thing?"

Kaguya answered his question in a strange, sarcastic voice that Saya had never heard before, but judging from the force she was putting into her footing, it was clear that this was definitely not what she was thinking.

But at this point, Sawa really didn't know what to say. Just like Kaguya said, that place was now his home, and it didn't really have much to do with Kaguya. Whatever decision he made was justified.

But he had a feeling that if they continued down this line, Kaguya might burst into tears of grievance.

After all, her current expression suggests that she's putting on a brave face.

Being stepped on by her is nothing to Saiyu, but a girl's tears are a deadly weapon for him; he can't stand looking at those kinds of things.

So, before things get to that point, Saya decided to make it up to her first.

"Well, I really can't refuse this. You know I always keep my promises. How about this, you name a condition, and I'll try my best to fulfill it as compensation."

Sōyū was afraid of her, so he clasped his hands together and nodded at her, hoping she could understand him.

"Then tell me first, what exactly is your relationship with that person? I don't want to live with someone whose background is unclear."

After hearing Saya's explanation, Kaguya could only glance at him before slightly loosening her grip on her feet.

She knew perfectly well that even if she worked herself to death here with her limited strength, she wouldn't cause any trouble for Sōyū. But she just needed to vent her frustration, otherwise this guy would eventually fill up all the empty rooms in his run-down restaurant because he was easily swayed.

We should have given him a single room from the start, so we could have squeezed in with him, and we could have just sent everyone else away by saying there were no rooms available.

"She's just a friend. I helped her out last time, and now she's helping me out. I can't just stand by and watch her become homeless, can I? But don't worry, she's definitely a kind-hearted person and won't pose any threat to you."

Saku explained to Kaguya with a sincere expression that this was something he had no choice but to do.

"Is it up to you to decide whether there's a threat or not? Besides, can't you discuss this with me first next time? So what if she doesn't have a place to stay? I'll book her a presidential suite where she can live for the rest of her life."

Kaguya was furious when she heard Saya say this. He was so easily fooled! He was usually so shrewd in fights, but how could he be so easily fooled when it came to feelings?

"Then let's do it next time. Next time, I'll definitely talk to you first."

Saya was speechless at Kaguya's solution, as if it really wasn't a problem for her, and the matter could be resolved just as well.

"There will be a next time?"

Kaguya tilted her head as if she'd heard something unbelievable, looking at Saku with an expression that suggested she wanted to devour him alive.

"It's gone. You're right. I'll definitely come to you for advice on these kinds of things more often in the future."

Saya gave a wry smile. Kaguya looked like a little tiger, and putting aside what he was saying, she was actually quite cute.

"That's more like it, but let me make this clear first, you have to compensate me for this. But you said it yourself, I didn't force you."

Kaguya held her breasts, which were not perfect, in her arms, and looked at Saku's face, which she both loved and hated, and solemnly declared.

Chapter 580 That's Your Business

Kaguya didn't directly state her request, but instead kept it to herself, clearly wanting to plan things out carefully before telling Saya what she really wanted.

Fortunately, Sawa himself wasn't in a hurry, so he let her have her way.

And as the school bell rings, it officially means that school is over.
