Chapter 817: Chapter 818: Communication

"I didn’t go; it’s not good at that sort of thing," said Agunas, glancing at the Little Green Snake on the table, which seemed to be deep in thought, probably still troubled by its evolution form. Feng Yuan stepped forward, petted the Little Green Snake, and said,

"Then should we let it have a look?"

"Do you think that’s realistic? Its strength is only at the Common Level!"

Agunas said exasperatedly. If not for the Little Green Snake’s lack of strength, why would he have thought to ask Feng Yuan to check it out? At this moment, the Master of the Mirror Realm crawled out from under the bed. Feng Yuan looked at the Mirror Realm’s Master, who was covered in dirt, and said somewhat speechlessly,

"How did you get like this... Never mind, let’s give you a bath first."

"Hey!"

Seeing Feng Yuan pay no attention to him and directly carry away the baffled Master of the Mirror Realm, Agunas felt a bit angry. Inside the bathroom, after Feng Yuan tested the water temperature, he poured the warm water from the showerhead onto the hands of the Master of the Mirror Realm and asked,

"How’s the temperature?"

The Master of the Mirror Realm looked at Feng Yuan with some confusion, and after a while carefully examined the pearl in its arms. Not noticing anything unusual, it nodded. Seeing the Master of the Mirror Realm’s action, Feng Yuan said somewhat speechlessly,

"Stop messing around; that pearl’s outer wall is of Domain Barrier level. Without your permission, how could this water possibly get inside?"

Xiao Ji quietly poked its head from the doorway, looking jealously at Feng Yuan, who was carefully cleaning the Master of the Mirror Realm in the bathroom. Sensing Xiao Ji’s gaze, Feng Yuan turned around and said,

"Do you want to enjoy the hot water too?"

Xiao Ji glared at Feng Yuan angrily, the eagle-like creature huffily left the room. Meanwhile, Qi Chen had already taken Ah Mu out of the dorm. In the corridor, Xiao Ji hesitated for a moment before glaring at the closed door behind and flew toward the battle area.

"This is for you. You can start by using this to see what the world is like now, Agunas, you help teach it how to use a smartphone," said Feng Yuan, passing his phone to the Master of the Mirror Realm and turning to Agunas. Glancing at Feng Yuan, Agunas said begrudgingly,

"What are you doing then? Can’t you teach it yourself?"

"I’ll clean under the bed. How about we switch? You help with cleaning under the bed?"

"Why clean that?"

Agunas was puzzled. That place was just a spot for piling up clutter, what was there to clean? Feng Yuan, while pulling out a box, said,

"I’m afraid it’ll crawl back in there again. It’s no good always getting all dirty."

Agunas flicked his tail impatiently and said,

"Why doesn’t it just use a cleaning spell? Besides, it’s not a Divine Beast with a tendency toward a dark attribute. What’s with the obsession with crawling into dark corners?"

Agunas was getting impatient. That creature used to be timid, but that was no excuse anymore. Didn’t Feng Yuan know what Agunas knew? The Mitradite from the Mythical Era was known as the Kingdom of Holy Light, and the palace where that creature lived was made of crystal; at night, Light Crystals would illuminate the entire palace.

A creature that lived in such a place would like dark corners? Agunas didn’t buy it!

The Master of the Mirror Realm glanced at Agunas, turned its head away discontentedly, and Feng Yuan scratched his head and pointed at the upper bunk where Najia used to sleep, saying,

"How about you sleep up there?"

The Master of the Mirror Realm, looking at Feng Yuan, attempted to crawl under the bed again. Feng Yuan, speechlessly blocking its way, said,

"First, learn how to use the smartphone with it; I’ll clean under the bed."

The Master of the Mirror Realm peered at Agunas proudly, as if challenging him. Agunas scanned the Master of the Mirror Realm and said in an unfriendly tone.

"If you want to fight, we could head to the starry sky for a good brawl."

"Quit it, if the two of you really start fighting, the starry sky won’t be able to withstand your antics."

Feng Yuan held back the Mirror Realm’s master somewhat speechlessly. He wasn’t joking; Agunas could surpass limits using the Golden Tome Page, and the Mirror Realm’s master could also surpass limits using the World of Mirrors bead that Feng Yuan gave it. These two were among the strongest of the Divine Beasts to begin with, surpassing their limits would mean the starry sky wouldn’t last long.

Glancing at Feng Yuan, the Mirror Realm’s master seemed to think for a moment, then shook its head as if to show disdain for arguing with Agunas, flipping through a book in its hand as it settled on the table, it said,

"It’s just like the legends."

Seeing that Agunas didn’t seem to really intend on teaching the Mirror Realm’s master, Feng Yuan scratched his head, feeling conflicted when Big Cat wandered back to the dorm lazily and sat on the floor, looking at Feng Yuan with a tilted head, whining. Naturally, it saw the Mirror Realm’s master, but it just thought that was another strange Spirit Beast that Feng Yuan had picked up from somewhere.

It wasn’t like Xiao Ji, who didn’t want other Spirit Beasts to share Feng Yuan’s attention; rather, it just felt happy to be by Feng Yuan’s side.

"Big Cat～ you came back just in time～"

Big Cat tilted its head and whined, seemingly unclear on what Feng Yuan was trying to do. Agunas cast a glance at Feng Yuan and said in a low voice,

"You’re thinking Big Cat could help teach? That’s rather naive, isn’t it?"

"These two..."

Agunas watched speechlessly as Big Cat and the Mirror Realm’s master put on an acting contest with each other, each pretending to be more innocent and cute than the other. Too bad Agunas knew them too well. The Mirror Realm’s master had assisted the Kingdom of Holy Light in ruling that area for so many years; did it really believe it could be as naive as Najia? As for that, Agunas simply didn’t believe it. The Kingdom of Holy Light had been one of the most bellicose nations back in the day.

"Could Najia also be pretending?"

Agunas muttered thoughtfully, then shook its head a moment later, rejecting that guess. It felt it was being too suspicious. If it were truly capable of pretending that well, that would be strange. Big Cat had learned its acting skills from observing the players it played games with over this period of time.

At least, it could now use the Data Domain to disguise its appearance and infiltrate the Player’s Guild without being detected. As for Najia? That one didn’t have the same advantage as Big Cat. As for the Mirror Realm’s master? It had lived much longer than Najia and wasn’t comparable either.

Agunas was puzzled about the Mirror Realm’s master’s change of attitude towards Feng Yuan. It didn’t quite understand why. Was it because of Its request?

Crawling out from under the bed, Feng Yuan used his sleeve to wipe his face, only to smear it dirtier. Agunas looked at him disapprovingly and said,

"Can’t you just take a bath?"

"Just wait, I’m not finished cleaning yet."

Feng Yuan went into the bathroom with the dirty rag to clean it. Little Green Snake slithered in and saw the Mirror Realm’s master, which was acting cute with Big Cat, and paused. It seemed... it hadn’t seen it before? Little Green Snake unconsciously overlooked the events following Feng Yuan’s return yesterday, as it had been busy with its evolution research, and today it went specially to buy those experimental materials.

As it approached Big Cat, Little Green Snake hissed, staring at the Mirror Realm’s master warily. The latter was holding Feng Yuan’s phone—was it brought by him? But surely Big Cat wouldn’t be aware of the strength that was so suspicious.

Yes, Little Green Snake could sense the odd spatial power emanating from the Mirror Realm’s master. That strange power was eerily like a complete Domain unto itself, yet it also seemed to be protected by a special force.

In terms of barrier strength alone, it was the strongest that Little Green Snake had encountered since becoming a Divine Beast. But there was an extremely eerie aura to the barrier, as if the barrier itself were a world.

Big Cat was somewhat puzzled and whined. It didn’t understand why Little Green Snake was so agitated. Other than being a bit sly, the other didn’t seem to have any special traits. Little Green Snake glanced at Big Cat, and if it weren’t for Big Cat’s financial support, its experiments would likely have ground to a halt by now, as those evolutionary materials didn’t come cheap.

Though Big Cat might not care about the money, Little Green Snake was naturally grateful for its help. At this moment, Feng Yuan, having just washed the rag, came out and saw Little Green Snake cautioning the Mirror Realm’s master and said with some confusion,

"What are you doing?"

Little Green Snake hissed, pointing its tail tip at the Mirror Realm’s master as if to say something. Agunas glanced at Little Green Snake and translated,

"It says that Spirit Beast is very suspicious, the power it carries is quite strange, and it’s also accompanied by a special Domain."

"Wait, Domain?"

Agunas was startled. If it remembered correctly, that bead should correspond to the shattered World of Mirrors, right? That thing was supposed to be on a higher level than a Domain. As a spatial Divine Beast, why hadn’t it noticed?
