Yin Kong raised an eyebrow, showing no intention of discouraging the newcomer's enthusiasm.

"Alright, I'll be going out for a bit. You and Shinobu can help clean up the office."

Upon hearing that Aoyama Nanami was assigned to the role, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief, as this was an area she was relatively good at.

But who is A-Shinobu?

Just as she was wondering what was going on, she suddenly heard a strange female voice behind her:

"Alright, traveler, you can leave this to me."

Aoyama Nanami was so startled that he almost jumped back in his tracks.

She turned around abruptly and realized that someone had been silently standing behind her all along.

Judging from her petite figure and clear voice, she was clearly a young woman.

However, her attire was far stranger than that of Catherine, who was dressed as a maid.

Her upper body consisted of a black mesh half-shirt and a purple hooded short jacket, her legs were clad in gold and red armor, and there were red patterns painted on her lower back.

Of course, the most striking thing was the black mask the other party wore on his face, with black face and fangs, looking like a ghost or god.

Seeing that Aoyama Nanami looked completely terrified, Yin Kong immediately explained:

"Don't be nervous, this is Shinobu, and also one of the members of our Omnipotent Agency."

Hisaki Shinobu also waved in a friendly manner:

"Hello, Ms. Aoyama, I heard your conversation. I am Shinobu Hisaki. You can call me Shinobu-nee."

"Hello, Sister Ren."

Hearing Hisaki Shinobu's friendly tone, Aoyama Nanami gradually relaxed.

However, seeing that Kuki Shinobu looked almost like a ninja straight out of an anime or game, she couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Sister Ren, were you there just now?"

Hisaki Shinobu nodded slightly:

Yes, I've always been here.

However, it was behind Yin Kong's team.

But clearly, Aoyama Nanami completely misunderstood her meaning, thinking that she was like the ninjas in the story, secretly hiding in the shadows.

Of course, Hisaki Shinobu does indeed possess such skills and abilities.

"Alright, let's get to work."

After Yin Kong left, Jiuqi Ren began tidying up the furnishings and cleaning up the dust with practiced ease.

It's clear that she did a lot of things like this within the Arakkao faction.

Aoyama Nanami is also very obedient and works very hard.

However, one's gaze would inevitably drift toward the mysterious Hisaki Shinobu.

Finally, Hisaki Shinobu stopped what he was doing and asked:

"Why are you staring at me like that? Is there something you want to ask?"

Aoyama Nanami asked curiously:

"Sister Ren, are there many people in our agency?"

Hisaki Shinobu wasn't too surprised and said:

"There aren't many now, but who knows about the future."

After all, as far as she knew, the people who had a connection with that traveler were almost everywhere on the entire continent of Teyvat.

Even if he were to meet that Lord Mitakenami here someday, Hisaki Shinobu wouldn't be surprised in the slightest.

Aoyama and the Seven Seas asked:

"So, everyone's outfits are all so...unique?"

If that's the case, then isn't President Yin Kong a fanatical cosplay enthusiast?

So, isn't it normal that the other party paid a high salary for just three lines of dialogue?

Chapter 46 Ninjutsu

"You mean to say it's strange, right?"

Seeing that Aoyama Nanami looked somewhat embarrassed, Hisaki Shinobu explained in a gentle tone:

"Don't worry, I don't find this description offensive."

After all, the Arataki-ha are indeed all "weirdos" who are not very normal in the eyes of outsiders.

"I prefer to speak my mind, so I hope everyone can be more direct and not have so many reservations. By the way, this outfit is just something I like, and has nothing to do with the traveler, or the boss."

Hearing the sincerity in Hisuki Shinobu's tone, Aoyama Nanami couldn't help but feel envious.

She sometimes wishes she had such a cool and straightforward personality, so that she wouldn't have to work so hard when interacting with people.

"As for the other people in the agency, since they are friends of the traveler, there aren't many ordinary people among them—"

Watch out for what's above you!

Aoyama Nanami was startled and looked up in horror to find a plastic box falling straight down on her.

Fortunately, a slender arm reached out from the side in time and steadily supported it.

Hisaki Shinobu gently placed the box on the ground, turned around and asked:

"How's it going? You're not injured, are you?"

Only then did Aoyama Nanami exhale a long breath as if waking from a dream, patting his chest in lingering fear and shaking his head, saying:

"I'm fine, thanks to Sister Ren."

Given her current financial situation, she has to be very careful with her meals, and sometimes she even has to eat dirt because she's so poor. She can't afford to get injured and hospitalized.

Hisaki Shinobu nodded slightly, then looked up and checked. He found that the shelf holding the boxes was missing a screw and was already loose and tilted. When Nanami was cleaning, it slid down.

"It was just a small favor. It seems the original owner of this firm was also a person who didn't care about details."

Otherwise, they wouldn't have piled the heavy objects up so high.

Even within the Araki Faction, only the leader, Araki Ichito, would typically do something like this.

Aoyama Nanami curiously opened the box and found it stuffed full of all sorts of random books and magazines, and couldn't help but exclaim:

"Sister Shinobu is so strong! Are you really a ninja?"

She struggled to even lift the box of books, but Hisagi Shinobu easily caught it with one hand. That strength alone was enough to amaze her.

Hisaki Shinobu shook his head and said:

"I'm not a ninja, I just learned some similar skills before."

Inazuma does indeed have legitimate ninjas, namely the final squad where Hayaru belongs. They are a secret force under the command of the Kamisato family, the magistrate of the ninja clan.

Hisaki Shinobu's abilities are more than enough to qualify him for the final episode.

But she didn't even want to be a priestess, let alone a secret force with more rules and more complicated matters.

Aoyama Nanami's eyes lit up, and she became even more curious:

"Wow, could it be the legendary ninjutsu? Ninja-neechan, may I take a look?"

Her dream is to become a voice actress, and she is also very interested in these kinds of fantasy stories.

"It's not impossible."

Hisaki Shinobu nodded slightly.

When Yin Kong left, he told her that in this world, it was best not to reveal the existence of elemental power in front of ordinary people, because it would easily attract a lot of unwanted attention.

But apart from that, there weren't many other concerns.

After all, with a Super Saiyan who dismantled a concrete pillar with his bare hands setting an example, it's probably harmless for them to go a little too far.

Besides, as someone she sees every day, [Catherine], Aoyama Nanami will likely have a lot more time to spend with them in the future, so it wouldn't be a bad thing for her to give them a heads-up beforehand.

"However, most ninjutsu are just illusions, using one's own speed or blind spots in the target's line of sight to move, so they are not as flashy as you imagine, and may disappoint you."

Aoyama Nanami quickly shook her head and said:

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm just happy that Sister Ren is willing to demonstrate."

She had seen short videos explaining ninjutsu, so she wasn't naive enough to believe that ninjutsu, where you can simply clap your hands and summon whatever you want, really existed.

Therefore, even if Hisaki Shinobu only performs two sword flourishes, she will still applaud and praise him enthusiastically.

"Okay, take this."

Looking at the small yellow rubber ball, no bigger than the palm of his hand, that Hisaki Shinobu casually tossed to him, Aoyama Nanami asked in confusion:

"This is--?"

Hisaki Shinobu turned around, his back to her, and said:

"Just pick a direction and throw it out with all your might."

"Throw it out forcefully?"

Aoyama Nanami hesitated. Although the rubber ball was small, what if it hit something?

Hisaki Shinobu seemed to have guessed her concerns and chuckled softly:

"Don't worry, it won't happen."

Nanami was skeptical, but ultimately found a relatively open area and, as Hisaki Shinobu had instructed, threw the ball forcefully out—

A silvery-white light flashed, and the rubber ball had only flown about two meters when it was precisely pierced by a short knife and pinned to the wall.

"Okay, so awesome!"

Upon witnessing this scene, Aoyama Nanami's eyes widened in shock.

At least in her opinion, being able to stab a small rubber ball that had been thrown away with a short knife was already a remarkable level of accuracy.

Moreover, Hisaki Shinobu did this while having his back to her the entire time.

This is unbelievable! Does she have eyes on her back?

"Sister Ren, you're amazing—Sister Ren? Sister Ren?"

Coming to her senses, Aoyama Nanami was about to express her praise to Hisaki Shinobu when she was shocked to find that the other's figure had silently disappeared from the spot.

The high school girl was taken aback and quickly looked around.

Although the office that Yin Kong rented was not small and the clutter was very messy, after they cleaned it up, it was basically completely exposed, and theoretically there was no space big enough for a person to hide.

But, as if he had vanished into thin air, Hisaki Shinobu disappeared without a trace.

"Sister Ren, are you still there?"

Aoyama Nanami was somewhat panicked.

After all, the feeling of a perfectly healthy person disappearing in the blink of an eye, leaving her alone in the office, was truly indescribably terrifying.

"Don't worry, I'm here."

Hisaki Shinobu's voice suddenly rang out from behind, startling Aoyama Nanami, who turned around abruptly.

However, there was nothing behind her; she did not see any trace of Hisaki Shinobu.

"Ren-Ren-jie, are you really there?"

"Of course I'm here."

Upon hearing the reply, Aoyama Nanami turned around again, but still found nothing.

The high school girl was completely stunned, feeling a sudden chill rise from the soles of her feet and straight to her head.

Chapter 47 An Ordinary Kuki Shinobu

Seeing that Aoyama Nanami's voice was trembling, even bordering on a barely perceptible sob, Hisaki Shinobu reluctantly appeared and comforted her:
