Chapter 386: Relationships
As I finish up washing in the bathing area, my mind drifts to the various actions I will need to do for the demi-humans and preparing for Big Sis Crane.
However, once I climb out of the water, I feel a chill up my spine.
Luckily, it’s not from the spirit beast.
Unluckily, it’s from my scan notifying me of a troubling fact. Shi is looking for me, roaming the hallways in search. And she does NOT look happy.
Seeing this, I quickly dry myself off, put some clothes on, and head over to her. When she sees me, she collects herself a bit before speaking.
“Good morning, Master James. Did you enjoy yourself last night?”
A smile naturally appears as I think about yesterday, despite the worrying way of speaking she’s using.
“Yeah… it was amazing. I was really glad to connect with you guys. I’m also glad that everyone seemed to enjoy themselves a bit. I’m sure it was in no small part, due to your work behind the scenes.”
As I say this, her face softens a bit, clearly appreciating my noticing her work. But she soon lets her face turn stern again.
