The latter subconsciously wanted to withdraw his arm, but Mu Bai held on tightly.

"Don't be like this..." she whispered, "Others will treat you as a different kind..."

"You don't even care, why should I care?" Mu Bai smiled and tightened his grip.He could feel the girl's warmth through that second skin.

"Besides, if they treat us as different, aren't we the same?"

"..." Kai'Sa's face under the void carapace flushed slightly, and she would be speechless for a while.

"Don't think about it, go shopping." Mu Bai smiled, "Besides, I don't have any money with me."

"It's okay, I have..."

Kasha shyly took out a large bag of gold coins and stuffed them into the opponent's hand like a shy child.

"These are the money I've saved during this time, and I'll give it to you."

"Is it enough to buy you a day?"

Chapter 3 Kai'Sa's "Home"

There are many food sellers in the Chenxi market, but very few clothes sellers.

It took them a lot of effort to finally find a tailor shop.The owner is a male yordle of short stature, with a thick scarf wrapped around his neck that normal aesthetics cannot appreciate.

As for the age... can't tell.

The yordles have a very long lifespan. As long as there are no accidents, it is not a problem to live for hundreds or thousands of years.Except for the 100 years of childhood and old age, the other times are similar.

"What do you two need...?" The shopkeeper hid behind the counter, his tone full of timidity.

He welcomed the two guests, but was also terrified of the girl who was clad in a void shell.

There are many legends about her in the market.

Some people say that she has long been corrupted by the void and has a cruel temperament; some people say that she is actually an undercover agent hiding in Bandle City, and will kill anyone who accidentally pries into her true face; others say that she is a monster herself, full of dangers and uncertainty.

Those legends are hard to tell, but they all have one thing in common—this girl, who came from the void.

"Clothes. Adult men's clothes." Kai'Sa was not good at words, and could only try to control her voice so that it didn't sound so hoarse.

"Is it for this gentleman..." The shopkeeper poked out half of his head and looked at Mubai.

"Yes."

"What style do you want..."

"The style... I don't know. It's fine if it looks good."

"Oh……"

The shop owner nodded thoughtfully, then pointed to a row of clothes at the back of the shop and said:

"That's the adult male human zone over there...how about the two of you take a look for yourself first...?"

"Okay." Kai'Sa took out a gold coin and put it on the table, then took Mu Bai to pick out clothes.

In fact, the purchasing power of a gold coin has far exceeded the value of a piece of clothing, not to mention that the shopkeeper just showed her the way.

But besides giving money, she couldn't think of any other way to express her gratitude.

Just like she wants Mu Bai to accompany her, she can only think of spending money to "buy time".

"How about this one?" The girl took out a black coat from a row of clothes and put it in front of the other party to compare the length.

"Very good." Mu Bai smiled, "Your eyes are as bright as your face."

"Please don't say such insincere words..."

"I do it from the heart."

"..."

Kai'Sa's cheeks flushed bright red, but because of the void carapace, no one saw it.

Although Mu Bai has praised her beauty many times, and she can feel that the other party is really sincere, but she still can't believe it.

Are monsters infected by the void worthy of the word "beautiful"?

There must be something wrong with Mubai's aesthetics...

Maybe he also thinks the owner's scarf is pretty...

"Let's not talk about that." Kai'Sa shook her head and brought the topic back to the clothes. "Which one do you like?"

"This is..."

Looking at the rows of exquisite costumes, Mu Bai immediately suffered from difficulty in choosing.

At this time, the question should be thrown back to the person who asked the question.

"As long as you give it to me, I like it."

"You're here again..." Sure enough, Kai'Sa was not only not angry, she was also a little happy.

She took several pieces of clothes and put them in front of the other party for a while, and then made a decision that made the boss ecstatic:

"Or... just buy them all."

------------------------

In the end, Kai'Sa actually bought all the clothes that fit well.

Mu Bai's heart hurts as much as the boss smiles happily.

Those are real gold and silver... just squander it like this...

"Would you like to try on the clothes now?" Back in the house, the void carapace on Kai'Sa's body faded a bit, and that pretty face finally came into contact with the air. "Should we eat first?"

"Let's eat first." Mu Bai looked at the pile of clothes, his heart ached.

"Okay, then wait, I'll cook." The girl nodded obediently, and headed into the kitchen with the fresh ingredients she just bought.

Although there was no expression on her face, Mu Bai could feel that she was very happy.

This is the first time she has invited someone to her home.

Hmm... No, it might be more appropriate to call this place a "roost" or a "foothold" instead of a "home".

This small wooden house stands alone outside Bandle City, with the forest in front and the city wall behind.Not to mention neighbors, even a small animal is hard to see.

In fact, with Kai'Sa's financial resources and ability, it is easy to live in the city, and even buying a big villa is not a problem.

She just doesn't want to.

She is used to people's strange eyes, but it doesn't mean she likes to be seen as a monster.

She would rather be with darkness and loneliness than those malicious guesses and gazes.

This cabin is most likely an abandoned building that was abandoned outside the city after the void came.

Small and dilapidated, gaps patched with wooden boards can be seen everywhere, cold in winter and hot in summer, and the environment is so harsh that even the civil engineering brothers would shake their heads when they saw it.

"It's really not easy..." Mu Bai sighed secretly, while supporting the table that might fall apart at any time.

Not long after, Kai'Sa came back with several steaming plates of food.

She sat across the table, looking a little embarrassed.Firstly, she was afraid that the food she cooked would not suit the other party's appetite, and secondly, she was a little embarrassed—she also knew that her house was very dilapidated and not suitable for entertaining guests.

But the more she is like this, the more distressed Mu Bai is.

She is obviously a chosen one, the last hero of mankind, why should she suffer such grievances?

"Eat..." the girl whispered, "Because I have very low requirements for food, so my cooking skills are also very poor... Please don't hold it against me."

"how could be."

Mubai showed a friendly smile, then stuffed a piece of black stuff that might be meat or vegetables into his mouth.

Needless to say how bad this looks, but the taste is a bit unexpected.

still alright.

"It's very delicious, Miss Kaisha." Seeing the girl's expectant and nervous expression, Mu Bai couldn't help but praise.

As soon as the words fell, Kai'Sa was obviously relieved.

"As long as you like it." She rarely smiled.

For the next half hour, the two chatted while eating, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

But...after dinner, it's about time for Mu Bai to go back.

"That...Miss Kaisha..." While the girl was clearing the table, Mu Bai mustered up his courage and asked:

"How about you move to live with me?"

The environment here is really bad, it is inconvenient to buy something, and there is a danger of being attacked by void creatures at any time.

Kaisha's small hands froze, she pursed her lips, and finally chose to decline: "No, I'm fine here."

"But--"

"Go back quickly. There are so many new chosen partners here today, it will be very troublesome if you are not here."

"...Okay." Mu Bai didn't force the other party, "Then I'll go first. See you later, Miss Kaisha."

"Well, see you later."

Kaisha watched the other party go to the door, and then asked the last question in a humble tone:

"After you're done... can you come and find me? I still have some gold coins here... I'll give you all."

Mu Bai paused, turned around, and said with a smile:

"it is good."

Chapter 4 Yufeng Swordsman·A reunion across life and death

The next day, Mu Bai went to the rune secret room first according to the old rules.

Kieran wasn't with Ryze today, but his new apprentice, Ike, was here.

This talented young man from Zaan was so focused on his work that he didn't even notice that Mu Bai had arrived, and was still working on those weird mechanical parts.

"Good morning, Mr. Mubai." In contrast, the old mage Ruiz looked very enthusiastic.

"Good morning, Mr. Ruiz." Mu Bai saluted back, carefully stepped over the parts all over the floor, and approached the other party. "Did the test results come out yesterday?"

"Freshly baked."

Ryze nodded, and used a little magic power to activate the control circle in the secret room, allowing himself to withdraw temporarily, and then turned out a list of candidates from the table.

At the bottom of the list is impressively recorded the information of the twelve candidates who just arrived yesterday:
