On how PhDs become human evil

In Kenneth's office, looking at Bai Jie who had already packed his luggage, Kenneth couldn't help but sigh.

Shrugging, Bai Jie laughed, "Well, I'm about at the age where I need to go out and broaden my horizons. If I keep working behind closed doors, I'll fall behind the times."

I'll take your words as fact.

(Anyway, you're just jealous that Webber is traveling, and you want to go on vacation too, right? I know you too well, you brat.)

Thinking this, Kenneth opened the drawer next to him, took out a box, and handed it to Bai Jie.

"Although it's just a simple Mystic Code, it's a recognized graduation gift within the Clock Tower. You weren't given one when you became a Master Magus, so here it is."

When Bai Jie opened the box, he found a short sword lying inside.

"The Sword of Azoth...."

In the magic world, this is a very common magic costume. Many magicians will give this costume to their students after they have achieved something, as proof that the students have graduated from their teaching.

Bai Jie closed the box, put it into his luggage, and said with a smile, "Then I'm off. Take care, brother. I hope I can see your and Sora's child when I come back."

"You...! You brat, why are you spouting such blunt truths!" Kenneth roared, his face unusually red. "Get the hell out of here! The Archibald house has been much quieter without you! Don't come back until you've reached the required color level!"

"Yes, yes, right! Say goodbye to everyone in El-Melloi's classroom for me, Ciao~!"

--------------------------

Dragging his luggage, Bai Jie left the clock tower, got into the car that was already waiting outside, and said after getting in, "Thank you for coming to pick me up, Otto."

“You are the one who reunited me and Karen, this is nothing,” Otto said with a smile. “But if possible, I would still like you to keep this pufferfish under control.”

Hearing Otto say that, Sirin, who was sitting next to Bai Jie, kicked Otto in the shin in annoyance: "You have the nerve to say that, you golden retriever? If it weren't for you, would I have suffered so much in the Tower of Babel? I'm already being merciful by not killing you right now!"

After the Holy Grail War ended, Sirin and the three Kallens, as Servants of White Zeus, continued to exist in the mortal world because of their terrifying magical power that surpassed that of the Dragon Veins.

Kallen, the original sinner, has joined Rhodes Island and is currently undergoing training as a special operations operator.

Karen the Phantom Thief says she doesn't need a home, she just wants to be a hero as a phantom thief, so she begins a solo global tour, and it's estimated that some wealthy person's home has already been vandalized.

Sister Kallen and Otto stayed together, but because she was Whitebeard's Servant, Whitebeard used a Command Seal to create the Book of False Servants, making Otto Sister Kallen's Master, although Whitebeard still provided the magical power.

As for Xilin, as we can see now, she has become Bai Jie's direct bodyguard. Putting aside everything else, she looks quite good in a suit, exuding the aura of a domineering female CEO.

Otto gave a wry smile in response to Celine's sarcasm. After all, it was his own fault from the past, and he had to take the blame.

"So, Doctor, are you going to go back to the time of the Second Honkai Impact?" Otto asked.

"Well, it would be best to move it forward about twenty years. My main purpose in going back to the past is still for Cecilia."

Of the four incorrect time points given by Bai Jie's adopted daughter Bai Liya two hundred years later, Cecilia's matter was ranked first, and it was also the matter that Bai Jie wanted to deal with the most, since he couldn't keep ignoring Cecilia's situation.

Nodding, Otto looked at Rita, who was driving: "Notify them to activate the dimensional transfer device, Rita, set the time to 1980."

"Understood, Lord Otto."

Not long after Rita's voice fell, a dazzling white light burst forth from Bai Jie and Xilin, and then the two turned into particles of light and disappeared from the car.

Relieved, Otto summoned the Void Archives: "Let me see what I need to do next... The Doctor has been sent away, and then... Rita, book me a plane ticket to the Middle East. I want to end the war there."

Today, Otto is also working hard for world peace.

P.S.: Update

P.S.: Three more chapters to go, time for a Red Bull and more grinding!

Section 137.1. Fu Hua: A teacher suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

In Guangzhou, China, on a certain snack street, unlike the dark night, it was brightly lit, with all kinds of food stalls occupying both sides of the road. The vendors' shouts rose and fell like waves, one after another.

In this bustling food street, there is a bar that, like other bars, sells the same drinks and is not much more luxurious in its decorations than its competitors, but it is very popular with female customers. In contrast, it does not have a high reputation among men.

There is only one reason for such a significant difference: this bar has a special waiter.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the bar opened on time, and a group of elegantly dressed women who had been waiting at the door poured into the bar like a tide, shouting in unison—

"Little Hua Hua! We're here!"

A figure emerged from the bar at the sound of the noise.

Her gray hair was tied in a single ponytail, she had a handsome face, bright blue eyes, a slender and perfectly proportioned figure, and that iconic white uniform.

This is Fu Hua, the top waitress at this bar.

By the way, she is a woman.

Fu Hua gave a slight, standard Western-style bow to the customers and smiled perfectly: "Good evening, ladies. You are all as beautiful and charming as ever tonight."

"Aaaaaaahh ...

The women's screams erupted in the bar. The elegantly dressed ladies crowded around Fu Hua and led her to a table. At that moment, rock music with a great rhythm started playing in the bar, instantly raising the atmosphere to a fever pitch.

In other bars, you would see men and women drinking and dancing together, with waiters constantly moving through the crowd, serving drinks to guests at various seats.

But inside this bar, all you can see are elegant ladies chatting and laughing together, and the only waitress moving among the crowd is Fu Hua.

If it were anyone else, they would probably be exhausted by now, but Fu Hua is different. Although she is a woman, her physical strength is better than any man's. Even when dealing with so many customers at the same time, she is not flustered at all.

She was like a spring breeze, flitting among various small groups, occasionally cracking jokes to amuse the ladies, and sometimes accepting an invitation from a woman to dance with her...

"Click..."

The sound of the door opening was barely perceptible, though it was quickly drowned out by the music. Fu Hua, with her keen hearing, still heard it and immediately went to the door, saying, "Welcome, guest."

"Excuse me, you two."

A man and a woman appeared at the door. In this bar, which mainly caters to women, men are extremely rare. Generally speaking, only tourists from other places who are visiting for the first time come here. After all, anyone who has been here for a while knows about Fu Hua.

Even though Fu Hua is a woman, men still can't help but be jealous of her, because she's so popular with women.

"Are you two? This way, please."

Led by Fu Hua, the two sat down at an empty spot in the corner, ordered two bottles of wine, and began to drink together.

Time passed amidst the women's laughter and music, and as the clock struck midnight, the people in the bar finally began to leave in twos and threes.

After loosening the tie that had bound her all night, Fu Hua was about to go to the kitchen to make herself something to eat when she discovered that there were still people in the bar who hadn't left.

"These two guests, our shop is about to close."

“Yes, I know, that’s why I’ve been waiting until now.” The white-haired man, Bai Jie, smiled and said, “To be honest, I have mixed feelings. I don’t know whether to say it’s been a long time or it’s our first meeting, but at this time, we can say it’s our first meeting, Fu Hua.”

"Huh?" Fu Hua was taken aback when she heard Bai Jie say that. Her first thought was that Bai Jie was an acquaintance from the past, but she didn't remember having a white-haired friend who looked like he was in his teens.

Seeing Fu Hua stunned, Bai Jie couldn't help but smile: "It's really rare to see you freeze up like that. You're usually such a good student, and you always lecture me when I slack off."

"Excuse me, I don't understand what you're talking about." Fu Hua said this with a hint of hostility in her eyes.

She didn't want to cause trouble, but if Bai Jie was there to cause trouble, she wouldn't mind fighting back.

Seeing Fu Hua's displeased expression, Bai Jie also put away his unreliable manner and said seriously, "Then, allow me to introduce myself again. I am Bai Jie, your teacher from more than thirty years in the future."

P.S.: Two more chapters to go. Please allow me to keep it short; it's been a long time since I've posted five chapters in a day, and my inspiration is running low.

P.S.: Please recommend, vote with monthly tickets, give a reward, and subscribe!

Section 138, Part 2: Sirin: Don't I have any dignity?

Fu Hua's residence was located in a house not far from the bar. Because Fu Hua was constantly traveling back and forth across China, she didn't care much about whether her place of residence was simple or not.

After all, she came from the primitive era five thousand years ago. What kind of dilapidated house hasn't she lived in?

Looking at Bai Jie and Xilin sitting opposite her, even Fu Hua, with her composure, couldn't help but show a troubled expression: "So, why are you two following me home?"

A dozen minutes ago, Fu Hua, who thought Bai Jie was talking nonsense because he claimed to be her teacher, gave him a disdainful look and left. But she never expected that Bai Jie would actually chase after her with Xilin!

Not wanting to get entangled in trouble, Fu Hua revealed a bit of her true skills and began running through the streets and alleys at a speed that ordinary people couldn't keep up with. The roads in Guangzhou at this time were still very complicated, especially near the bars, where there were many alleys. If you were a newcomer, you could get lost in them for a whole day.

Fu Hua thought she could shake off Bai Jie and Xi Lin this way, but just as she was confidently about leaving the alley to go home, she found Bai Jie and Xi Lin standing at the exit waiting for her.

It's like you've been playing Li Bai and showing off your fancy moves for most of the day, but when you return to the place where your afterimage is still there, three opponents are already camping there waiting for you.

This is absolutely insane! Fu Hua was devastated. She had been running around in the alley for most of the day trying to shake them off, but the two of them hadn't even entered the alley.

What was she doing wandering around the alley for so long?!

After pouring himself, Bai Jie, and Xilin a glass of water, Fu Hua said with a dark face, "Then can you tell me your true identity and purpose?"

“Didn’t I say I’m your teacher from over thirty years in the future?” Bai Jie said. “As someone from the previous era, I believe you must know the concept of time travel.”

Upon hearing a certain piece of information revealed in Bai Jie's words, Fu Hua immediately lost her composure!

Swish-!

Her right hand shot out in an instant, and her hand blade, as swift as a falcon, approached Bai Jie's neck. However, just before Fu Hua could grab Bai Jie's neck, Sirin had already activated the Honkai energy barrier.

"Ding!"

Fu Hua chopped at the Honkai energy barrier with her hand, then withdrew it in surprise, her eyes fixed on Sirin: "Manipulating Honkai energy...you're a Herrscher?!"

"Ah, don't worry, Celine is harmless, you can treat her as a friend without worry."

"Friends? But she's a Herrscher."

Fu Hua's words were filled with distrust of Bai Jie and Xilin.

With a helpless sigh, Bai Jie said, "Sirin, I'll have to trouble you a little—by command of the Command Spell, Sirin, squat down."

Before Xilin could understand what was happening, her body involuntarily squatted down.

She quickly pressed her hand to her skirt and shouted in embarrassment and anger, "Human! What are you doing! Withdraw the order right now!"

"I already told you I had to put you through this, otherwise Fu Hua wouldn't believe me," Bai Jie said with a smile. "Use the Command Spell, Sirin, raise your hand."

Xilin raised her hand, and just then, a gust of wind blew by, lifting Xilin's skirt and exposing her black panties to Bai Jie's eyes once again.

Looking at Sirin's panties, ignoring Sirin's extreme shame and indignation, Bai Jie continued, "By Command Spell, Sirin, shake hands with Fu Hua."

Xilin extended her hand and shook hands with Fu Hua.
