...
After another round of "sculpting on the mountain" and "exploring below," Alex floated leisurely out of the bathroom.
Konan followed behind him, looking as usual, but with an indescribable sense of comfort and relaxation about her. Her pale orange eyes watched Alex unblinkingly, a smile playing at the corner of her lips.
Alex was amazing—in every sense of the word.
He helped her in battle and supported her in life. He was useful in so many ways that she could no longer be without him.
After a short rest, Konan opened the door. Kada hurried over from a distance.
"Lady Konan, it is noon. Lunch is ready. Should I bring it to your room?"
"No need, I'll eat in the pavilion."
"Yes."
Konan handed him a sheet of white paper covered in complex black patterns.
"This is a Storage White Paper. Its function is similar to a storage scroll. It has a storage space of 100 cubic ters. It should make your supply runs down below a bit easier from now on."
Kada's eyes widened. He imdiately wiped his hands vigorously on his clothes before accepting the white paper with utmost care and reverence.
"Thank you for the reward, Lady Konan!" he exclaid excitedly.
"Try it out first."
"I will try it imdiately."
Kada used his Chakra to sense the white paper in his hand, just as he would with a storage scroll.
In an instant, his eyes went round, and he gasped, "The space is huge! It really is 100 cubic ters!"
This... how was this done?
The storage scroll he used for supply runs was only ten cubic ters. He had heard that the super-large storage scrolls used by the Five Great Ninja Villages to transport supplies to the front lines during the ninja wars were at most 40 cubic ters.
Yet, this thin, light sheet of white paper in his hand contained 100 cubic ters of storage space.
So light and with such large capacity—it was simply an epoch-making storage artifact.
Lady Konan was truly amazing; there was nothing she couldn't do! Not only was her combat power extrely strong, but she also had such accomplishnts in ninja tool developnt!
At this mont, Kada's admiration for Konan surged like an endless river.
He carefully put away the Storage White Paper and said respectfully, "Lady Konan, this Storage White Paper is extrely useful. Thank you for the reward! I will do my utmost to complete every task perfectly and live up to your expectations."
Konan offered a few words of encouragent lightly, then took out a stack of white paper, about a hundred sheets.
"These are all Storage White Papers, but the internal space is only 20 cubic ters each. Distribute them. They should provide so convenience for missions in the future."
"Yes!" Kada accepted them with excitent and agitation.
His hard work during this period had not been in vain.
His subordinates only got 20 cubic ters, while he got 100. He was indeed valued by Lady Konan.
As for those hundred or so subordinates...
Heh heh... you all better stay quiet in the background.
Anything concerning Lady Konan must be attended to by him personally. He would do everything possible to reduce their chances of showing their faces in front of her.
"Lady Konan, on behalf of those hundred disappointing subordinates, I thank you."
"Lady Konan, I will go to the kitchen now. Please wait a mont in the pavilion; I will bring the food over imdiately."
Konan waved her hand, signaling Kada to get busy. She closed the door and walked toward the deck.
Inside the pavilion.
Shion and Samui were sitting and enjoying the breeze.
The two had just finished training in the training room. Samui was fine, her expression normal. Shion, however, had a flushed face, beads of sweat on her forehead, and was breathing rapidly, looking very exhausted.
"Shion, your physical fitness is too poor. You're dying of exhaustion after only an hour of exercise."
"How can I compare to a ninja like you who trains all year round?" Shion shot Samui a disgruntled look, gasping for air. "Since I was little, my range of activity was almost entirely limited to the palace. Forget running, I rarely even walked much every day. That hour of training just now nearly killed . I feel awful right now."
Samui shook her head. "That's why you need to train more. Your body is rusty. You'll be fine if you exercise more in the future."
Ah... no, I really don't want to exercise.
Shion wanted to shout her thoughts out loud, but rembering that this was Lady Konan's arrangent, she didn't dare. She could only accept it silently. After all, her body was indeed too weak. In the past, she needed soone to carry her after walking for just ten minutes...
"Lady Konan!"
Samui had sharp eyes and was the first to spot Konan walking out from the lower level.
Konan nodded and walked into the pavilion.
"Lady... Lady Konan..."
Shion gritted her teeth, her body trembling as she tried to stand up to greet her.
Unfortunately, lactic acid had built up all over her body, and her muscles were sore. She couldn't exert any strength at all. After struggling for a mont, she collapsed back onto the stool like a dead dog, unable to stand.
Konan waved her hand. "No need to force yourself."
Seeing this, Alex flew out from her chest and hovered in front of Shion.
White threads extended from his paper body.
Seeing the familiar, flexible white threads, Shion's eyes instantly widened. Her body grew hot, a deep blush rose on her face, and her heart pounded like a little deer.
Lady... Lady Konan is going to... what is she going to do...
In broad daylight, she wants to... she wants to...
Right here in such a public place?
Should I refuse? At least I should say not here...
Shion's brain was like an overloaded machine, steaming. She saw stars and felt dizzy, looking utterly adorable.
The next second, the white threads gently pricked into various parts of her body.
They did not invade the places she had imagined.
While she breathed a huge sigh of relief internally, a tinge of regret quietly rose in her heart.
Before she could think more, the soreness in her body receded visibly. Every cell in her body relaxed, exiting the state of fatigue. Her breathing beca much easier, no longer difficult as if a giant rock were pressing on her chest.
So... so Lady Konan was helping soothe my body...
What... what kind of nonsense was I thinking just now?
Realizing she had misunderstood, Shion tucked her chin to her chest, wishing she could bury her head inside.
Alex chuckled inwardly.
Shion's reaction was truly interesting. He was just using Dark dical Ninjutsu to help her relieve pain and recover physically, but looking at this little girl, her thoughts had probably strayed into "H-territory."
Having experienced multiple "interrogations," both Shion and Samui had seen, and even personally experienced, the white threads. Seeing them used now to relieve Shion's post-workout soreness, they were only slightly surprised, not finding it too unexpected.
These white threads were magical; they could lengthen and shorten, and their diater could be controlled. Now that they had a pain-relieving function, it was acceptable.
Half a minute later, the treatnt ended. Alex retracted the white threads and floated beside Konan with the other sheets of paper.
"Thank you, Lady Konan!!" Shion stood up imdiately to express her gratitude.
It felt amazing. In just half a minute, the deathly discomfort in her body had receded like the tide. Her whole body felt indescribably relaxed and light. It was magical.
Her gaze drifted toward the white paper from ti to ti, subconsciously recalling past stimulating scenes, and her heart instantly started pounding again.
This white paper was indeed as Samui had said before—too useful. It could heal injuries, offer personalized customization, and was useful in every sense.
"Lady Konan!" Honoka also arrived at the pavilion. "I took a nap just now, and all the Chakra I used up earlier has recovered."
Konan took out three sheets of white paper covered in complex patterns. She sent one flying to each of the three won and briefly explained their function.
"Sugoi!" Honoka held the Storage White Paper, sensing the space inside, and exclaid, "There really is 100 cubic ters! This is great! It's so much more convenient than storage scrolls. Scrolls have to be stuffed into a ninja pouch, but this paper is so light it can be carried close to the body!"
"Indeed. Thank you, Lady Konan!" Samui maintained her cool expression, but joy surfaced in her eyes. She kept fiddling with the Storage White Paper, obviously liking this brand-new storage tool very much.
Shion was the sa, fondling the Storage White Paper admiringly. Now she could store lots and lots of things inside.
Laughter and joy filled the pavilion, creating a harmonious atmosphere.
Hmm?
Suddenly, Alex seed to discover sothing. He jerked his head up to look at the sky.
Even blocked by the thick fog of the Hiding in Mist Technique on the periter, he could still sense sothing coming out of the void outside!
