Sentry: The guide who's getting extra help is very busy today.

"She did compensate, but I understand that without the White Tower to keep me in check, and if there had been fewer SSS-level sentinels present that day, I wouldn't have survived under your Seyabon's decision-making."

Her survival has absolutely nothing to do with Sayyabang.

Then why should we forgive Xue Nao?

"Oh, I think I understand what you're thinking. You mean that since I took the Star Shells, it means the matter is over, right?"

Shu Zao's eyes suddenly flashed with a morbid fervor, "I really like your eyes, shall I gouge them out?"

"Don't worry, the compensation I offered is twice as much as what your Saiyabang gave me. I'm still a good guide, so please forgive me, okay?"

She offered compensation without any negotiation, so why did Elisai keep quiet?

Not responding is really impolite, Shu Zao twisted the handle of the knife.

"I—well, I'm on your side." He didn't expect her emotions to change so quickly, and he stabbed her directly with a knife.

After that incident, he became like a completely different person, completely insane.

"Really? How can I believe you? You mentioned Joan and Xue Nao, but why didn't you mention Zajir? Do you subconsciously think he's not worthy of your mentioning?"

The hilt of the knife turned 180 degrees, and blood gurgled from the wound. Shu Zao pulled out the knife.

"Why didn't you fight back?" Shu Zao's expression softened.

"If I fight back, I will surely die. I haven't figured out your abilities, but I know that I have no power to resist once we start fighting."

The three sentries beside him were keeping a close eye on him.

Xingyao spoke up at this moment: "His mother isn't so well-behaved."

Elizabeth: He did it on purpose, only saying it now.

"Oh, then we can still talk." Shu Zao returned to her normal expression.

Elizabeth let the blood in his body flow freely, and he sat upright.

"My mother asked me to pass on a message to you: Welcome back."

These words startled Shu Zao. "What do you mean?"

"You can go to the central city and ask her in person a year from now."

Xingyao explained to Shuzao at just the right moment:

"His mother is not a special guide. Several hundred years ago, there was an SSS-level special guide in Seyiabang whose ability was prophecy."

She would only be awakened when the Seyabong family needed her; otherwise, she would remain asleep, slowing down her death.

What did Elisa's mother exchange for the prophecy?

Welcome back?

Shu Zao cared a lot about those four words!

"Why do we have to wait a year to ask?" She felt conflicted and upset.

"My mother said it was her will, and also the arrangement of fate."

Shu Zao: "…………"

It's been mythologized, which makes things a bit tricky.

"Etheris, take our new member to the treatment room."

"Shuzao, am I the only one here?" What are they whispering to each other?

I can't even listen to myself.

"Then you can all go together." Shu Zao didn't expect Etheris to be so sensitive now, with his brain matter appearing and disappearing intermittently.

Fu Yuan: "There's no need to waste star shells; his blood is slowly congealing."

Since Shuzao doesn't care about him, there's no need for treatment. No matter how severe the injury, as long as it's not a vital area, the Sentinel can recover on its own.

It's just a matter of how fast or slow time goes.

"Treat it, but don't let it affect your training. By the way, Elisa, your Starbean was transferred on its own, right? It has nothing to do with your mother. I want to hear the truth."

Elizabeth, however, didn't play any tricks this time: "Yes, I moved it myself."

Xingyao is too perceptive to be fooled, while the other two are "brainless" and "unhappy," so they don't need to be too concerned.

"Okay, you can choose any empty room. The family meeting is over, you can go to the treatment room now."

So it was the Agaray family that was behind it; she hadn't been able to find out.

What can be done if an entire family has 'agreed' to hunt her down?

Let's find a clear, sunny day and slaughter them.

"Shuzao, this is a wood-type crystal core that I collected. Consider it a gift."

Fu Yuan: The stab wasn't strong enough; it should have killed him. I don't know if it's too late to finish him off now.

Etheris: I...I came empty-handed. I handed over the Starbean and didn't think about anything else. Being older means having more experience.

Xingyao: Ha, playing this trick. Before I even became Shuzao's exclusive sentinel, I had already 'sold off' the wood-type crystal core to Shuzao at a bargain price.

"Thanks."

On the way, Etheris spoke up for Elisai, saying, "Among us, only your house is original; Shu treated you differently from others."

"Did Shuzao decorate your room?"

When Elisaith responded, Etharis almost wagged his tail.

"Yes, she messaged us privately and designed it according to our preferences, which is exactly what we wanted."

"Oh, really? Shall I go take a look?"

Without a second thought, Etheris refused, saying, "No need. Don't come. I'm afraid you'll become psychologically twisted."

Elizabeth looked at the exceptionally well-ventilated room, his expression blank, and closed the door amidst the smug comments of the other three sentries.

He sent a message to his mother in the central city.

[Elisay]: I told Shuzao about Qiongyue and Xuenao.

[Mom]: Shu Zao didn't kill you?

Elisai: I was almost killed.

[Mom]: I don't want to hear it.

Elizabeth: …………

[Mom]: You have your own little family now, so don't discuss everything with me. If Shuzao sees this one day, you won't be able to explain it to me.

Elisai: She... won't like me.

[Mom]: You knew it again~~~

Elizabeth: ………

A disastrous start.

Contrary to Elizabeth's xenophobia, Shu went to the training room very regularly, every day, and watched them train.

Everyone is treated equally.

It seems that his life is not much different from before, but there are differences. The atmosphere is better, and he practices harder.

Half a month later,

"Ring ring ring".

"Feed." Shu Zao came to the corner to answer the phone, her voice a little breathless.

Her panting caused Jincheng to misunderstand.

"I am Jincheng."

"Oh, you're back from a mission, right?" She didn't want to hear another answer.

"Well, I want to stay where I'm currently working. You name your conditions."

He had only been back for less than five minutes when a staff member from the White Tower Matching Room came to tell him that he had been matched with a special mentor.

He stood still, checked the matching information, and immediately called Shuzao.

I am not interested in guiding others; I only want to lead the White Tower to a better future and dedicate my life to it.

"Did you see the message? Click on the green bubble; I created a group. You'll probably receive the notification and call me directly when you get back."

Is he in such a hurry? She's been waiting for over half a month and he's still not that impatient.

As Shuzao spoke, she helped him with the application. She submitted 80 applications, and set another 79 to be released automatically on January 1st of each year.

Once sent, it cannot be withdrawn unless both parties agree through negotiation.

Given the average lifespan in this world, it would be difficult for him to live to 103 years old; Jincheng is 23 years old this year.

"I've submitted my application. You can send me all the Star Coins at once and then delete all your contact information."

If you have a favorite director, as long as she can accept the opinions of others, I don't care.

But if you dare lay a hand on me, I will slaughter your entire family, even those not yet a month old.

Shu Zao's words slowed down the movements of the four sentries during training, and the collisions became quieter.

"What are you guys doing? Train! We're going on a mission in less than a month. Do you want to die out there?" Shu Zao turned around and 'fiercely' bared her 'fangs' at them.

They were trying to subdue them.

Jin Cheng quickly read the message. He heard Shu Zao's shout, so it seemed he had misunderstood.

Fortunately, I didn't say it out loud.

"Change it to 100,000. You don't need to delete my contact information. You can contact me if you have any difficulties." The conditions offered by the other party were very reasonable, even top-notch.

"Whatever." Saying more would be foolish.

"Thank you, Director Shuzao."

Seeing that Xingbei had sent the message, Shuzao asked, "Is there anything else?"

"no."

"Hang up."

"it is good."

Shu hung up the phone, collected the Star Coins, and deleted the group chat in one smooth, effortless motion, as if she had just eaten Dede.

She created a new group chat, and currently there are only the five of them in it.

Her name is "Shuzao and her personal sentinels".
