Leaving the dungeon, they made their way back to the hotel as Shiro bought a room for her and Attie. Nimue and Iziuel returned to her mana realm since they didn’t need to spend more money that way.

  Of course, they asked for Attie to join them but he only shook his head and clutched onto Shiro which made her heart melt.

  "Aww, Attie is just too cute." Shiro smiled while lifting Attie up.

  "If you know he’s so cute then why don’t you share him around a little." Nimue pouted.

  "Nope. Attie is all mine." Shiro laughed as Nimue only rolled her eyes.

  "Mum, can I stay in your room as well?" Yin asked as she wanted to spend more time with Attie.

  "Sure, I don’t see why not but I only have one bed, ya know?" Shiro nodded.

  "It’s ok, I’m still a mini you after all. I’m sure I can fit on the bed." Yin nodded as Shiro’s smile twitched for a moment but didn’t say anything.

  After all, Yin wasn’t wrong. She still looked like a loli version of her. Despite being B class now, Yin’s appearance had not changed much except for the fact that her appetite had clearly increased.

  ’Though, I suppose she’s matured a little since she decided to share with Attie.’ Shiro thought with a smile.

  "In that case then Lisa, want to join me in my room as well? I did get a big bed, so I think it can fit all of us." Shiro suggested with a smile since they were a family.

  "Ah, um sure." Lisandra nodded her head.

  "Oh before that, can I go get some food from the canteen? I did share a bunch of my food with Attie so I’m still hungry." Yin asked as Shiro tilted her head.

  "When are you not hungry?"

  ". . ."

  Hearing Shiro’s question, the party couldn’t help but snicker a little since that was indeed the truth. There hadn’t been a time where Yin wasn’t hungry as her passive skill makes it so that she could just keep eating if she so wished.

  "Fine fine, I know I’m a glutton, ok!?" Yin pouted in annoyance as Shiro chuckled and pinched her cheeks.

  "I was just asking a question haha. I never said you can’t get some food now, did I?" Shiro winked as Yin’s eyes brightened in an instant.

  "Just make sure you don’t eat out for too long and don’t piss off anyone important. It would be quite annoying to deal with them after all."

  "Thanks mum!" Yin smiled and hugged Shiro before running towards where the cafeteria is.

  Shaking her head softly, Shiro looked towards Lisandra.

  "Do you want to join your sister?" Shiro asked as Lisandra shook her head.

  "Nah, big sis has been out alone enough times to know what she can and can’t do." Lisandra replied.

  "I see. Anyways, let’s go back to our rooms firs- wait, does Yin know which room we’re in?" Shiro asked since Yin was just playing around with Attie when they got their room numbers.

  "If you want, I can go look after her." Silvi volunteered.

  "Are you sure? I mean, I don’t want Yin to get in the way of your lovey dovey time with lil Chen." Shiro grinned as Silvia blushed lightly.

  "*cough* it’s fine, isn’t it darling?" Silvia asked as she turned over to Chen Yu.

  "Mn, of course." Chen Yu nodded with a smile.

  "In that case then I’ll be troubling you." Shiro nodded her head as Silvia jogged to the cafeteria.

  "Anyways, shall we go to our rooms now?" Shiro asked.

  "Mn, sure. By the way Shiro, I can’t help but notice you’ve become more of a mother now huh?" Madison raised her eyebrows.

  "Well…… I’m technically a mother of three now despite never having a partner. I’m pretty sure I’m a better mother than I am a girlfriend at this point haha." Shiro joked.

  "The fact that it’s probably true doesn’t help your case now does it?" Madison chuckled.

  "Not really. Honestly, I won’t be surprised if I started to adopt more kids in the future. I’ve already got three in less than a year after all."

  "True."

  As they chatted to each other, they made their way through the hotel and found their rooms. Shiro’s room was on the floor above them so she took Attie and Lisandra up while giving the rest of the party a wave.

  Arriving in front of her room, she scanned the key card that she was given and opened the door. Setting Attie on the bed, Shiro took off her jacket and put it in her inventory.

  "Lisa, do you want to go for a shower first or should I go?" Shiro asked while turning on the TV to look for some interesting news.

  "Ah you can go first if you want mum." Lisandra replied.

  "Hm…… in that case then sure. You can play around with Attie in the meantime. Oh before that though, here, take this notebook. I’ve detailed some ways you can improve your sword mastery after watching you fight today. You can read it while playing with your brother." Shiro said while giving her a notebook.

  "Thanks mum." Lisandra nodded with a happy smile.

  Seeing this, Shiro patted her head lightly before walking over to the shower. Grabbing a towel, she undressed herself before going into the shower.

  Standing in the shower and allowing the water to splash onto her, Shiro couldn’t help but muse to herself about what had happened with Duan Han Yin.

  From the memories she inherited from Kuromi, they were the best of friends for a while. However, things changed all of a sudden and he became cold. Whenever he saw her, his face would scowl with disgust and fear before hiding it quickly. Kuromi didn’t say much but she definitely noticed. It wasn’t long after this change that Kuromi was killed in secret and had her mana links completely shattered.

  Remembering the scene of Kuromi being tortured moments before her death, Shiro narrowed her eyes in anger as killing intent radiated off her body.

  She could still see Kuromi’s pained face as she tried her best not to scream from the feeling of her links being snapped one by one.

  Quickly shaking her head, she dismissed those thoughts since her killing intent had accidentally frozen the shower.

  Thawing the ice, she quickly cleaned herself up before wrapping herself in a towel.

  ’The key thing I need to note is Duan Han Yin’s sudden change in attitude. It’s almost as if he was possessed by a ghost or something. Kind of like what happened with me and Kuromi.’ Shiro thought to herself.

  {Do you think there’s a chance that he was killed in secret and someone reincarnated into his body?} Nimue suggested.

  ’I’m not too sure. After all, unlike me, he didn’t need to restart his level and he was still human. He also had all of his memories.’ Shiro shook her head.

  {Well there are still quite a few mysteries in regards to your situation with the whole split soul and all that. We also don’t know WHY you reincarnated either.} Nimue sighed.

  ’True. Questions for later I suppose.’ Shiro shrugged before leaving the shower.

  "Lisa, you can go in now." She called out while drying her hair with her wind element.

  "Mn, sure." Lisandra nodded as she closed the notebook and set it aside.

  Seeing Attie sitting on the bed obediently, Shiro wondered what he was looking at and saw that he was fixated on the TV.

  Glancing over at the TV, Shiro saw that the current program was a cartoon of sorts that had people fighting against monsters.

  ’Well despite his intelligence, I suppose he is still a child.’ Shiro thought with a smile and allowed him to keep watching.

  Once her hair was dried, she put up an illusion before changing into a simple one piece dress.

  But before she could even relax, she felt a surge of mana that resembled Yin’s.

  ’Oh for f*cks sake. Really!? I can’t even relax after a bath?’ She frowned before standing up.

  "Lisa! Seems like Yin’s in some kind of trouble. I’m going down right now. Attie will stay in the room with you ok?" Shiro called out.

  "Got it mum." Lisandra replied.

  Nodding her head, Shiro jumped into the rift and made a beeline towards where Yin was. Hopefully, it wasn’t too serious or else it’ll be annoying to deal with.
