After work, start to speedrun the other world-Chapter 589 - 236 Fantasy and Lies_2

...

...

At the same time.

Elsewhere.

"Teacher is leaving?" Xi Mu’s gaze traveled past the abundant curves of Hecate, landing on her delicate, stunning face.

"Not planning to stay a few more days?"

"I still have matters to attend to," Hecate lowered her head, glancing at her disciple who was resting on her knees. She reached out and pinched her disciple’s cheek. "If you miss me, you can come find me in the high heavens."

"Then stay until tonight?" Xi Mu tentatively asked, only to see Hecate raise a hand to cover his eyes, followed by a soft, warm laugh:

"If I stay until tonight, you’d be courting rebellion." As her words fell, Hecate, seated in the living room, turned into a phantom and vanished from her spot.

Xi Mu rubbed his neck, preparing to sit up.

"Is Teacher reluctant to leave?" The Goddess of Salvation came running over, bending down to study Ahtal who was lying on the sofa. She then proactively lifted Ahtal’s head and placed it on her own knees.

She gently stroked Ahtal’s hair.

"Teacher, is this comfortable?"

Xi Mu chuckled helplessly: "You learn really fast, but this lap pillow isn’t something you need to learn."

"Why not?" The Goddess of Salvation looked puzzled.

"Got any plans next?" Xi Mu didn’t explain, instead asking, "Are you planning to stay here and live, or go out to train?"

The Goddess of Salvation pondered for a moment, then asked back, "What does Teacher think I should do?"

"It depends on whether or not you want to grow stronger." Xi Mu sat up and said calmly, "If you want to grow stronger, you need to leave here and personally kill... no, defeat a demon or a witch."

He said this to the Goddess of Salvation.

"If you can’t defeat all demons or witches, then you can’t save the world."

The Goddess of Salvation blinked, then suddenly showed an enlightened expression: "Just like Teacher defeated all the gods?"

"You could understand it that way," Xi Mu nodded, extending two fingers to poke the Goddess of Salvation on the forehead. "My foolish disciple, defeat all demons and witches, otherwise, you won’t even be qualified to stand before me."

The Goddess of Salvation was silent for a moment, raising a hand to touch her forehead before revealing a pitiful expression: "Teacher, do you think I’m foolish?"

Xi Mu turned his head away: "It’s not that I think you’re foolish, it’s just that saying it like this creates the right atmosphere."

The Goddess of Salvation puffed out her cheeks in anger.

Sometimes, she really couldn’t understand her teacher’s thoughts. No... most of the time, she couldn’t understand her teacher’s thoughts. According to the Three Goddesses of Fate’s prophecy, her teacher was someone destined to transition from a hero to a Doomsday figure under the gravitational pull of Ragnarok, oozing an almost tangible sense of tragic fate.

But she had never seen her teacher display any negative emotions. His face was always adorned with a gentle smile, giving a sense of reliability and reassurance.

"Tomorrow morning, you will set out on your journey," Xi Mu said, extending a finger to poke the Goddess of Salvation’s puffed-up cheek, which made a sound like air escaping.

"Just look for a weak demon or witch to fight. If things go smoothly, you could be back in time for dinner."

The Goddess of Salvation nodded firmly: "Got it."

If it was just defeating a witch or demon who wasn’t skilled in combat, then it shouldn’t be too difficult.

And at that moment.

"Are you the very extraordinary guest?" A warm female voice called out. The Goddess of Salvation instinctively looked toward the source of the voice and saw a golden-haired, green-eyed maiden gracefully approaching her.

Both had golden hair, and both were stunningly beautiful, but their auras were different. The golden-haired maiden exuded a more mature and elegant presence, with an almost wifely warmth.

"She can’t possibly mean me!" The Goddess of Salvation lightly shook her head. However, Letixia appeared curious at her words, placing the cake she was holding onto the table and giving the Goddess of Salvation a gentle smile:

"It’s been a while since you last had cake, hasn’t it?"

"Not that long," the Goddess of Salvation replied while eagerly opening the cake box.

Letixia chuckled at the sight, naturally taking a seat beside Ahtal, speaking softly:

"Lady Hecate just left like that?"

Before returning, she had sought out a white-haired girl to gather some relevant information. After preparing thoroughly, she had then come back, even going out of her way to prepare a cake, considering the likelihood that the Goddess of Salvation might already be craving sweets.

"By tomorrow, my student will also set out," Xi Mu said with a soft chuckle, watching the Goddess of Salvation eat her cake.

After his disciple challenged a few witches, he would burn this world to ashes and have the All-Knowing Saintess update the simulated world.

This simulated world no longer held any value for further experiments.

...

...

The next day.

At the border of the Iris Flower Kingdom.

Scarlet waves surged onto the beach, submerging a pair of crystalline jade-like feet, only to reluctantly recede.

The Avatar Witch elegantly turned around, looking toward the approaching Goddess of Salvation and Yemengade, a captivating smile on her face:

"Rushing to see me immediately, how moving." She wiped away an imaginary tear.

"Do you miss me that much?"

"It’s to complete a task assigned by my teacher," the Goddess of Salvation said as she conjured a golden holy sword out of thin air, striding step by step toward the Avatar Witch. "Teacher asked me to defeat a witch or a demon."

She explained as such.

"And you happen to be the nearest witch."

"So you can only blame your bad luck," Yemengade shrugged slightly and spread his hands toward the Avatar Witch, "If you weren’t staying in the Iris Flower Kingdom..."

"If the task requires defeating a witch or demon," the Avatar Witch placed a delicate hand under her chin, "then just eliminating one of my avatars counts, doesn’t it?"
