Mc will return to kumoko world in Ch 40

Lumine was also completely baffled. Could it be that Elliot wasn't who they thought he was? Maybe he was actually... a good guy?
Elliot didn't explain, unaware that the Traveler and Paimon had mentally slapped a "good guy card" on him. Right now, he was enjoying Barbara's gentle care while simultaneously pulling up his system interface.
By gifting the World Bubble to Barbara, he had essentially granted her a portion of his power power he could technically reclaim at any time. Simultaneously, the system awarded him the title [World's Kin].
[World's Kin]: Granted upon gifting a World Bubble to another. The recipient becomes your Kin, and their Affinity towards you increases. Additionally, Kin can complete your quests on your behalf.
Elliot pondered for a moment. Interesting. Kin can complete my quests? In this world, the only quest he hadn't finished was defeating Maguu Kenki.
That task wasn't particularly difficult. Maguu Kenki was essentially a war puppet from Inazuma that had ended up on these islands.
Its actual strength wasn't overwhelming. Barbara, now possessing a portion of his power, should be able to handle it for him.
As for the "Dodoking" they were searching for? That was actually just a setup by Klee's mother, Alice, designed to get Jean and the Traveler to spend the summer vacation with Klee. So, Dodoking was Klee's mom!
His only regret was not getting to meet Rex Lapis himself. In all of Teyvat, Zhongli was the character he admired and respected the most. Oh well, there would be plenty of opportunities later; no need to rush.
