Hearing Yuan Yuan's icy voice, Rentaro couldn't help but shiver. He then realized what was happening and, like a pervert, thoroughly examined his own body before muttering in disbelief, "..."

"This, this, I'm really saved? I've recovered?"

Although he insisted that Tendo Kisara deliver him to Yuan Yuan, Rentaro had no confidence that he would be rescued. It wasn't that he didn't believe Yuan Yuan could save him, but rather that he wasn't sure if Yuan Yuan was willing to save him.

"If you don't answer my question, then I can give you a negative answer to what you just asked."

Rentaro shuddered again, quickly stood up, and shouted,

"Yes, I will answer your question now."

After saying that, Rentaro chuckled sheepishly and patted Tendo Kisara on the shoulder.

"Miss Kisara, would you please step out for a moment?"

The topic of monsters that I'm about to discuss is information that the higher-ups are keeping strictly confidential. Judging from what Tendo Kisara usually says, she probably doesn't know about this, so Rentaro naturally won't talk about it in front of her.

Although he was indignant because of Yuan Yuan's actions, Tendo Kisara did not lose his temper. Knowing that he might not be able to hear what was about to be said, he gave Rentaro a deep look, then turned and walked out without saying a word.

"Alright, now you can speak."

Sensing the deep impatience in Yuan Yuan's tone, Rentaro quickly composed himself and recounted the battle he had encountered and his speculations about his opponent.

Yuan Yuan nodded, his expression unchanged.

"Alright, now that we've heard one side's explanation, it's time to hear the other party's explanation."

As Yuan Yuan finished speaking, Rentaro instantly fainted, or rather, fell asleep, his powerless body slumping to the ground with a thud. Then, Rentaro immediately stood up, bowed deeply to Yuan Yuan respectfully, and uttered a strange, eerie voice from Bai Ye.

"Hello, Lord Yuan Yuan, it is a great honor to see you again."

The moment Rentaro entered Yuan Yuan's line of sight, Yuan Yuan saw the soul inside him with chains wrapped around its neck. Having lived in the form of a soul for over five hundred years, Yuan Yuan, who had a deep understanding of souls, could naturally see the effect of this soul at a glance.

The influence subtly shapes Rentaro's personality, guiding it in the direction desired by the soul controller. This allows the soul controller to completely manipulate Rentaro's body while he is asleep or unconscious, and, if necessary, to forcibly seize control even when Rentaro is awake.

The soul's function seems strange and powerful, but in reality, it has no connection with Rentaro's body. It was crudely forced in. Anyone with even a little spiritual power can expel this soul from Rentaro's body.

Although he had a general idea of ​​what the time traveler was planning, Yuan Yuan still wanted to hear what the two parties involved had to say.

Chapter 48 From Today Onwards, You're a Nanny

"So, you're planning to make Rentaro Satomi your primary target?"

Although Yuan Yuan's tone was no different from usual when he asked the question—still indifferent and cold—he couldn't help but feel nervous in front of Bai Ye. He hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Yes, sir. However, I was unaware that Rentaro Satomi had already made contact with you before I took action. If my actions disrupt your plans, I will stop immediately."

Yuan Yuan twitched the corner of his mouth, seemingly finding Bai Ye's words somewhat laughable.

"Little guy, don't overestimate your abilities. Wait until you can plan for the whole world before you start thinking about this."

But Rentaro Satomi is the main character!

Bai Ye didn't think he could influence Yuan Yuan's plans. After all, when he read the comic, Yuan Yuan walked step by step into the sky under everyone's gaze, and after indifferently uttering the words "Restriction lifted," the monsters of the entire world went on a rampage. That kind of global plan was something Bai Ye couldn't possibly influence.

But recalling Rentaro's various actions and his own speculations about Rentaro's identity, Bai Ye couldn't help but worry. After all, the protagonist's identity was far too special. Was it really okay to change the protagonist's original fate? Wouldn't Yuan Yuan's plans be jeopardized as a result?

If Yuan Yuan fails to usher in a new era, the Elf Queen will certainly not appear, and the Elf Royal Court will not descend. Then, the girl who haunts his dreams and becomes his sole emotional support after his transmigration will likely not appear either—this is what Bai Ye finds most unacceptable.

Upon waking up, he found himself transformed from a student living in a peaceful era who had never even killed a chicken into a monster who had to fight to the death every day. If it weren't for his obsession with the girl who appeared in the manga's side story, Bai Ye would have died long ago in the mouths of other Gastrea creatures.

For so many years, Bai Ye has never interfered in anything that has appeared in the main story of the comics, precisely because he was afraid that his actions would create a butterfly effect that would prevent the girl from appearing.

Even though he knew that a mutated plant would appear in the area around Tokyo where a forest fire had broken out, and that eating its only fruit would enhance one's vitality to an alarming degree, making one almost invincible, he still dared not touch that fruit, because it was the foundation of a giant fire dog's power in the main story.

Besides the fruit, Bai Ye knew many other things that could make someone rise to the top in one step, but he didn't touch any of them. Instead, he overcame his lazy nature as a homebody and developed his abilities on his own, all to ensure that he could see that girl.

Therefore, at this moment, Bai Ye became extremely uneasy, and even had the urge to immediately abandon the plan against Rentaro.

[He's the main character! Changing his fate—are you sure your plan is foolproof?!]

Suppressing the urge to loudly question Yuan Yuan, Bai Ye clenched his fists, his body trembling slightly.

"Even if you're the main character, it doesn't matter, everything will proceed according to the script."

The cold voice startled Bai Ye, who abruptly raised his head and stared at Yuan Yuan in shock.

Yuan Yuan's expression remained indifferent as he repeated what he had just said.

"Even if you're the main character, it doesn't matter, everything will proceed according to the script."

The cold tone and indifferent expression offered nothing convincing, yet looking at that indifferent expression and listening to those icy words, Bai Ye suddenly felt no doubt whatsoever. His wavering heart regained its composure.

[That's right, Yuan Yuan must have known about Rentaro's identity as the protagonist all along, otherwise he wouldn't have paid so much attention to him. Thinking about it this way, the fact that Yuan Yuan dared to entrust me with the task of making Rentaro disillusioned with humanity means he must already be prepared to turn the tide no matter what.]

Bai Ye didn't doubt that Yuan Yuan had the ability to read minds and had read his thoughts. In Bai Ye's opinion, given Yuan Yuan's personality in the original work—that he wanted to bring every interesting thing into the laboratory to study—if he really could read minds, he would have discovered that Yuan Yuan was a time traveler long ago, and he would definitely be on the experimental table by now.

"Since you have made thorough preparations, I will not interfere any further and will focus on the task you have assigned."

Without further ado, Yuan Yuan asked Bai Ye a few questions and then signaled that he could leave.

After Bai Ye left, Yuan Yuan reawakened Rentaro.

When Rentaro woke up, he had no idea that he had fainted and that his body had been used by someone else. He still looked at Yuan Yuan with a tense and serious expression.

"I already know what you're talking about. I'll make preparations regarding the monsters."

Taking a sip of tea, and seeing Rentaro visibly relieved, Yuan Yuan's lips curled into a slight smile.

"So, what are you going to do? Although I have healed your injuries, as a mechanized warrior, most of your combat power comes from your mechanical limbs. In this battle, your mechanical limbs have suffered considerable damage, and you're probably out of ammunition. If you encounter another pursuer now, you definitely won't survive."

Rentaro was stunned for a moment, and then his expression turned bitter. He had been so preoccupied with the monsters that he hadn't considered his own situation at all. Now that Yuan Yuan had brought it up, he realized that he seemed to have reached a dead end.

Moreover, the person who seemed to have driven him to his doom is now sitting right in front of him. What's even more absurd is that, far from harboring resentment towards this person, he thinks of this person first when he encounters difficulties and needs help.

"I have a suggestion, would you like to hear it?"

The cold voice brought a glimmer of hope to Rentaro, and his eyes lit up slightly as he looked at Yuan Yuan.

"I'm still quite curious about Sumire Muroto's work. So, I'll provide you with shelter so those people will stop hunting you down. In return, you'll come to my lab and cooperate with my experiments. Don't worry, I'll ask for your consent before conducting any experiments that require your cooperation. I absolutely won't drug you or just dismantle you."

I was initially quite relieved, but what you said has made me worried.

Rentaro thought to himself with a helpless sigh, secretly wondering if Yuan Yuan was the kind of person who was obsessed with experiments and completely ignorant of the art of language.

The naive Rentaro had no idea that there was another type of person in this world who enjoyed making others anxious and fearful.

"I have no other choice now, do I?"

Rentaro shrugged and agreed to Yuan Yuan's proposal.

Hearing the expected answer, Yuan Yuan nodded, got up, and walked towards the laboratory.

"Good. Familiarize yourself with the environment here first. Don't enter the lab on your own if you don't want to die. By the way, in a few days, Sumire Muroto will bring over a cursed child named Enju Aihara. That child was originally intended as your partner, but now she's been given to me. Your first task is to take care of that child. Of course, if you don't want to, just throw that little girl out there who knows nothing but fighting and has no survival skills, let her fight with wild dogs for food, and then freeze to death on the street."

Staring dumbfounded at Yuan Yuan's retreating figure, Rentaro knew that he was probably going to become a babysitter.

Chapter Forty-Nine: What to Do?

"Hello, my name is Rentaro Satomi. Nice to meet you."

Rentaro extended his hand with a gentle smile, intending to shake hands with the person in front of him. But his expression changed drastically as his hand was halfway out, and he withdrew it even faster.

The next moment, a small, white, bare foot tore through the air, creating a piercing whistling sound as it swept past Rentaro.

Without a doubt, if Rentaro hadn't retracted his arm in time, even if his outstretched right hand was a mechanical arm, it would have broken. If it were an ordinary person's arm, it would have been severed by the knife-like kick.

Seemingly unaware that he had almost broken his hand, Rentaro wore a troubled smile and scratched his head vigorously.

"What a headache! I was asked to take care of a little girl like this. What am I supposed to do?"

The girl standing in front of Rentaro seemed not to have heard him, maintaining a wary posture with a guarded and hostile look in her eyes.

The girl's clothes were tattered and ragged, truly deserving of the description. She had no shoes, not even socks. Apart from the fact that her clothes weren't covered in stinking grease, she looked exactly like a little beggar.

Regardless of what kind of life the girl originally led, Muroto Sumire would never allow her to be given to Yuan Yuan dressed in rags. After all, a well-packaged product has extra points. If you look closely, you can see that although the girl's clothes are tattered, the material is of excellent quality.

Clearly, the reason things turned out this way is entirely because the girl tore her own clothes.

"My head hurts."

Rentaro ruffled her hair more vigorously, bent down, looked directly into the girl's eyes, his expression gentle yet serious.

"Aihara Enju, right? I understand you've suffered a lot because of your identity, so it's okay if you're wary or hostile towards me. But,"

As he spoke, Rentaro emphasized his words, his expression becoming completely serious. Under his gaze, Aihara Enju couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

"The owner of this house is very scary. If you treat him with this attitude, you may not even be able to guarantee your safety."

"Speaking ill of Lord Yuan Yuan, who kindly took you in, behind your back, and instilling wrong knowledge in a little girl—is this your character, Rentaro Satomi?"

A cold, hostile voice sounded behind Rentaro, instantly freezing his body.

With stiff movements, Rentaro turned his head and came into view of Momiji, who was pale-faced but still looked dashing.

Raising an eyebrow, Hongye's anger intensified.

"Rentaro Satomi, aren't you going to explain yourself?"

"I'm sorry! Please don't tell Mr. Yuan Yuan what I just said."

Rentaro promptly bowed and apologized, fearing that if he hesitated any longer, his words would be reported to Yuan Yuan. Although he was telling the truth, Yuan Yuan clearly wouldn't let him off the hook just because he was telling the truth.

"I hope Mr. Satomi will remember who protected you when you were being hunted down."

Hongye frowned, uttered a cold remark, and turned to walk into the kitchen.

"Also, it's almost noon, and Lord Yuan Yuan will be coming out of the laboratory for tea. So hurry up and take that little one somewhere else. If she spoils the Lord's tea-drinking mood, I'll kill her without his permission."

"I also hope you remember that I was hunted down because of that lord."

Rentaro watched Momiji's retreating figure with a calm expression, as if he wasn't talking about his own affairs.
