Xi Mu maintained a smile without speaking.
"I… I still have things to do, you guys talk." The white-haired Lolita's voice got quieter as she panickedly ran out of the room.
And after she left.
"Teacher, do you have something you want to say to me?" Xi Mu withdrew his gaze, now only he and Hecate remained, they could discuss some secrets between mentor and student.
To this, Hecate said with a beaming smile, "You're getting more and more skilled at handling young girls."
"I'll take it as a compliment from you, Master." Xi Mu smiled, and upon hearing this, Hecate shook her head and then said:
"I need you to obtain a branch from the Tree of Omniscience."
"A branch from the Tree of Omniscience?" Xi Mu was slightly stunned, "Teacher, that's not something I can obtain."
In the game's setting, the Tree of Omniscience is a metaphysical tree that extends into every corner of the world, and even now with the Great Sword of Death in his hand, he had no way to cut off a branch.
