People in the Alliance, Time Management Master

Bringing back one Chosen One is already a huge profit, two is a steal, three... I never even dared to dream of it.

But the result was... everyone except the youngest little girl was chosen by fate?

"Are you... sure?" Ryze looked shocked. "I don't mean I don't believe you... but isn't this a bit too... exaggerated?"

"It's thanks to the World Runes." Mu Bai smiled and pointed to his chest, lying, "The runes have the ability to identify the Chosen Ones; they react when they get close to me."

"hiss……"

"If there are still any doubts, we can let them access the runes now. This will verify my words and also allow us to reinforce the Bandle City barrier with their power."

“Alright,” Ryze said. “I’ll go give them a test now. You should go and rest. Thank you for your hard work.”

Mu Bai nodded and was about to sit down when the old magician suddenly added, "By the way, Kasha seems to have been looking for you these past few days. Go and see her when you have time."

"Kasha...?"

"Yes, ever since you left, she's been loitering around the entrance to the secret room every day, and if she doesn't see you, she'll run off to the outskirts."

"This..." Upon hearing this, Mu Bai felt a sudden pang of guilt. "How long will the test take? I'd like to go out for a while."

Ryze stroked his beard and pondered for a moment before giving a more accurate figure: "If they really are all chosen ones, plus the time for 'touching the runes,' it will probably take three to four hours."

"Understood, I'll come back later. I'll leave things here to you for now."

Mu Bai hurriedly said a few words to Caitlin, Seraphine, and the others before leaving the Rune Chamber.

....................................

"It's getting dark..."

Purple hair, purple armor, purple markings... The girl, dressed entirely in purple, gazed into the distance, watching the sunset slowly disappear into the mountains.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on her pretty face, casting a long shadow over her.

Today was another peaceful day.

"Time to go back," Kasha muttered to herself, brushing the dust off her clothes.

What will she do when she gets back? She doesn't know; she'll probably just stare blankly into the darkness again.

Humans infected by the Void do not need to sleep. The long night is an ordeal for them. Even if they force themselves to fall asleep, they will soon be awakened by the slightest sound.

The sun had completely disappeared behind the mountains, and Kaisa's last glimmer of hope vanished with the approaching dusk.

She leaped off the rock and slowly made her way back the way she came.

Suddenly, she felt a strong pricking sensation, and her second layer of skin contracted rapidly, hiding her flawless face beneath the void shell.

Something is rapidly approaching...

Kasha frowned, cautiously staring at the black dot that appeared on the horizon.

About half a minute later, her ethereal armor dissipated on its own, revealing her beautiful purple eyes filled with surprise and panic.

Just then, the last rays of the setting sun shone on her.

"I thought you weren't coming today..." Her voice trembled slightly.

Chapter 81 The Sugar Daddy Plan of Rich Woman Kasha

Bandle City was brightly lit under the night sky.

The end times make people understand the meaning of enjoying life to the fullest – no one knows whether tomorrow or an accident will come first.

Some people save money for most of their lives, only to go to war and never come back. Their hard-earned money is taken by relatives and friends and becomes someone else's savings.

So, whenever night falls, as long as they don't have much work to do, people will flock to the streets to either drink and have fun or find something to enjoy that is only for adults.

The streets were bustling with people, filled with a festive atmosphere. For the survivors, every day was worth celebrating; after all, being alive was the best news.

But the more lively the streets were, the more uncomfortable Kasha felt.

Because liveliness means crowding, but there is always no one within three meters of her. Those people who deliberately avoid her will subconsciously cast strange glances at her.

The Void is what the survivors fear and hate most, and this hatred continues along their purple-green blood to Kai'Sa.

They knew she wasn't a bad person, but emotions are hard to control.

Especially those survivors who lost loved ones to the Void, they simply couldn't get along with Kai'Sa normally. They were terrified, they hated, and they used complaints and curses to arm their fragile hearts.

Kaisa never argues or defends herself against the rumors; she simply endures everything silently.

"How far is it from your home?" the girl asked in a low voice, turning half her face to the side. "How much longer until we get there?"

"It's not far, it only takes a few minutes."

Mu Bai weighed the bag in his hand, already having figured out how to handle the ingredients later.

He had originally intended to invite the other person out for dinner, but the disdainful or fearful stares he received made him abandon the idea.

The most important thing about eating is to be happy. What's the point of being stared at with strange looks? Even the most delicious food won't taste good that way.

So they decided to buy groceries and cook for themselves.

Kasha also wanted to know where he lived, so she wouldn't be unable to find him next time.

"We're here. That's the building up ahead." About five minutes later, Mu Bai pointed to a small bungalow about ten meters ahead and said.

This house is low and narrow, located in a small alley, with extremely poor lighting and a damp environment; it is definitely a ground-floor dwelling.

After all, just a few days ago he was an ordinary newcomer soldier, and could only stay in such a place for the time being.

However, for Kaisa, who is used to living in the wilderness, this place is already quite good.

"It's a bit small inside, please don't mind," Mu Bai said as he opened the door. "You can just sit here for a while, I'll go cook."

Kasha nodded blankly, her steps slightly hesitant. This was her first time entering a man's home, let alone being alone with him, so it was inevitable that she would be a little nervous.

The indoor environment was even worse than the outside; the air was chilly and made people very uncomfortable.

Mu Bai carried several large bags into the kitchen, while Kasha remained in the living room. However, due to the small size of the house, there was only a three-meter-wide passageway between the kitchen and the living room, allowing the two to communicate normally.

Where have you been these past few days?

Once inside the relatively enclosed space, Kasha relaxed considerably and finally couldn't help but ask the question she had been most eager to know for some time.

"Well... that's a long story," Mu Bai replied while preparing the ingredients. "Let me sort it out and think about where to begin..."

"Oh."

The aroma of meat soon filled the small kitchen, and wisps of smoke rose from the old chimney, blending into the bright lights of the street.

Mu Bai's cooking skills were excellent, which allowed him to chat with Kasha about what had happened in the past few days while he was cooking.

Of course, what might be a few days for others could be dozens of days for him.

Kasha listened attentively, her usually indifferent face now showing expressions of surprise, tension, displeasure, and bursts of clear, melodious laughter.

The story is finished, and the food is ready.

"Try it." Mu Bai brought out a bowl and chopsticks, picked up a piece of stewed meat and put it into the girl's bowl.

Kasha felt very uncomfortable with such enthusiasm, but she didn't refuse or be coy and just put the meat in her mouth and started chewing.

It's so hot...

good to eat……

"Don't rush, eat slowly, there's plenty more."

"Mmm..." Kasha realized she had eaten too quickly, and a blush immediately spread across her face. "It's delicious... Thank you..."

"I'm glad you like it." Mu Bai smiled and took a bite himself. Hmm, it tastes good.

After all, these are top-quality ingredients, ridiculously expensive, so even the worst cook wouldn't make them taste bad.

“Mu Bai.” Kasha suddenly put down her chopsticks and looked at him seriously.

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

"You mentioned Caitlyn, Jinx, and Seraphine... are you close to them all?"

"Of course, they're all chosen ones. They helped me a lot back in Piltover. Any questions?"

“As expected…” Kasha lowered her head again, a hint of disappointment flashing in her beautiful eyes, “I smelled several different scents on you… It must be those girls, right?”

The Void Symbiote granted her superhuman sensory abilities, allowing her to smell scents that ordinary people cannot detect.

From the moment they met, she could smell a faint, sweet fragrance on Mu Bai—a scent that only girls would have.

Sure enough, Mu Bai isn't just nice to me... he's the same to everyone...

That's true... How could anyone like a void monster? We should be content...

"There's a smell?" Mu Bai was taken aback. He immediately grabbed his collar and took a few deep breaths, but all he could smell was the fumes from cooking.

"No, it's nothing, don't worry about it." Kasha lowered her head and quickly finished the food in her bowl. "Thank you for the treat."

The meal was delicious, but the thought that those girls had eaten it countless times made her unhappy.

"Don't be shy, you're welcome to come and eat anytime you like."

"Hmm." Kasha nodded slightly, then took the cloth bag from her waist and handed it over. "This is for you."

Mu Bai took the cloth bag, and the heavy feel and crisp sound of it hitting the bag made him realize instantly that it was a large bag of gold coins.

“You saved me before, it’s nothing for me to treat you to a meal,” he quickly said. “No need for the money.”

The ingredients used in this meal were of good quality, but they were only worth a silver coin or two at most, which was nothing compared to this bag full of gold coins.

A single meal costs a whole bag of gold coins; even the emperor's meals weren't that expensive.

"Is it too little?" Kasha didn't have much of a concept of currency and subconsciously thought that the other party didn't value this amount of money. "If it's not enough... I have a lot more here. Would five more bags be enough?"

"Five, five bags...?"

Has the world changed? Why are there so many rich women on the streets?

This bag of gold coins is enough to feed you a thousand meals of this caliber. Five bags... or should I stew myself for you to eat?

"Is that still not enough..." Kasha started to panic a little. "Then... how about ten bags?"

"Stop, stop, stop! One bag is enough!" Mu Bai quickly stopped the other person. "One bag is more than enough, and it's worth far more than this meal!"

"Is that right?"
