Chapter 51

"Um... This taste is good, Xinxin, go and get some more quickly." Lying on the bed, Yaoyue held a meat bun in both hands, eating it with a blissful expression, causing Chilian and Xinxin, who were taking care of her, to break out in a cold sweat.

"Aren't you afraid of eating yourself so fat that you can't fit back into the sheath...?"

"Anyway, my body size hasn't changed since I was born." o((≧▽≦o)

After the final battle with the consciousness-erased entity, Xinxin and Yaoyue lay in bed for two whole days. If it weren't for Chilian's care, Xinxin and Yaoyue would have starved to death. ("▔□▔") Regardless, the two days of rest allowed Xinxin and Yaoyue to fully recover. Well... except for Yaoyue, who was still a bit reluctant to leave the life of being taken care of by two people, everything else returned to normal. Xinxin didn't idle while recuperating. She meticulously studied the 'spiral drill' given to her by the Infinite Heart, but understanding it to gain the power to break everything wasn't that easy. Whether it was infusing magic power, swinging it, or using sword energy, the drill showed no reaction. Xinxin even hit Yaoyue with the drill several times, resulting in Yaoyue complaining about the pain. In the end, Xinxin had no clue about the material of the drill and could only put it aside for the time being.

In the past few days, Yachiharu and others also came to visit Xinxin. Of course, Xinxin couldn't tell them the real situation. After all, the matter of the Infinite Heart was beyond their comprehension, so Xinxin made up a ridiculous reason:

"That thing is the result of the current evil flowing from the Black Holy Grail encountering the ancient heritage known as the Seed of the Holy Stone, which underwent an unknown transformation and gained immense energy. It then devoured the Four Souls' Jade, which was forged from countless demon souls, to form its consciousness. With its terrifying power, it crossed the barriers of time and space to find a representative of the world's cursed tools—Abyss, the cursed tool that saved Alice—thus gaining a definite form and transforming into that monster. That's about it... Why do you all have such strange expressions?"

"......" *5 (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻

"Are you taking us for fools, pervert uncle!" Fia couldn't hold back and pointed at Xinxin's nose, starting to shout.

"Regardless, Uncle Xinxin, your reason is a bit too ridiculous..." Yachiharu said with a helpless expression.

"Uncle Xinxin, no one would believe your reason..." Konoha pushed up her glasses, adopting a questioning stance.

"Uncle Xinxin, I absolutely won't believe your reason, really." Kuroe let her hair down, and the eight strands extended around her, like a large spider, intimidating Xinxin.

"Uncle Xinxin, saying this will make things difficult for you. If you use this reason in the report to the research agency, it's absolutely impossible to get away with it." Muzukashi waved her hand, and 'Black River Kurenai' extended from her sleeve, moving like a snake's tongue in front of Xinxin.

"Uh... Is this reason not convincing?"

"Of course not!" *5

"Alright, everyone, don't ask about this matter anymore. Xinxin has his reasons, so please put away your curiosity." Chilian, who was taking care of the two, came to Xinxin's rescue, making Xinxin breathe a sigh of relief.

"Everyone, rest assured. I will perfectly resolve this matter, so Muzukashi, don't report the situation for now. I'll go to the port to handle it..."

In the following days, Xinxin did various disguises at the port. Using hypnosis magic, he hypnotized all the police investigating the scene, implanting the idea that it was the result of a gang fight. For this, Xinxin specially exchanged a pile of used bullet casings from the Infinite Heart, scattering them at the scene and where the police collected evidence. As for the organization studying the cursed tools, Xinxin guarded the crime scene for several days, with detection spells continuously active. If anyone from these organizations dared to show up, Xinxin, with his greatly enhanced spatial abilities, could instantly appear behind them, knock them out, and take them away for brainwashing. (Using rare spatial abilities to knock people out would make countless experts from different worlds cry.) These people who knew about the cursed tools might make mistakes with ordinary suggestion magic or hypnosis, so to be safe, Xinxin took them to his home, used brainwashing-level magic to adjust their memories, and finally erased their memories of the Tendou Tofu Shop, replacing them with false memories created by Xinxin and others, then returned them to their respective organizations.

On the morning of the tenth day.

Xinxin and the others stood on the port, which had been barely repaired, facing Yachiharu and his group. In the past few days, Xinxin had entrusted the shop to the employees and bought three boat tickets, preparing to leave under the pretext of a trip.

"Uncle Xinxin, take care, and thank you, Sister Yaoyue and Sister Chilian, for taking care of us all this time." Yachiharu, with a reluctant look, waved goodbye to the three at the ticket gate.

"Right, pervert uncle, remember to come back soon, and bring back foreign senbei when you return." Although they hadn't known each other for long, Fia had gotten along well with Xinxin and the others.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Tendou, your ability to deceive almost all secret organizations is truly surprising." Muzukashi had learned from other organizations that Xinxin had used them to spread the message that Abyss and others, when leaving, encountered a large-scale conflict between local gangs and were hit by a single missile, resulting in the immediate death of the family's matriarch and patriarch. For a leader of a considerable organization and a very sturdy cursed tool to be killed by a missile. This bizarre story actually made the research fanatics believe it. Because of witnessing Xinxin's methods, Muzukashi still had some caution towards Xinxin.

"So, enjoy life and don't get involved in your organization's affairs, Muzukashi. You can experience this kind of life." Understanding Muzukashi's thoughts, Xinxin made this suggestion and then looked at everyone.

"Don't worry, Yaoyue and I will be back soon."

"Right, wait for our return." *2

The time for the boat to depart arrived. Under the glow of the morning sun, Xinxin and the others left the port with the boat. Yachiharu and the others could only watch as the familiar three figures gradually disappeared into the sunrise.

"Everyone, let's meet again in a future with infinite possibilities." *3

'Contractor has chosen to return to the Infinite Heart, teleportation starting...'
