For scientific purposes

With my average body and my average strength, I made my way towards my good friend Xiayen that I've known for only a single day. Now that I think about it… I really haven't spent my time with someone in this world for more than twenty four hours...

Damn… I really am a loner…

Well, it's only been like one week since I've entered the sect anyway. So, is there even a reason for me to complain? I mean like… Do I look like someone that needs the power of friendship? Pff!

It would be cool if that was actually a thing though. Sadly, reality doesn't work like that… Or does it?

Hmm...

*Cough* *Cough* "My best friend Xiayen?! Are you home?!"

When I was in front of Xiayen's house, I patiently called for her with a very soft voice of mine.

"Oh, it's you…" After Xiayen had opened the door, and saw that it was me, she gave me a reaction that showed me that she was quite surprised to see me, however, at the same time, the tone of her voice didn't sound as surprised as her expression.

"Right! You must be here to help me with my research! Right…?" The dead tone in her voice turned lively at an instant, after she remembered how much of an interesting person I was. I know, I know… They don't call me a slayer for no reason~ Everything I do, girls love~ Cough Cough Or maybe they just called me that because I was a butcher for a few years…

"No." I was quick to decline Xiayen's words.

"I'm here for, my research." I made sure to explain the reason for my visit however.

"Oh, so you're something of a researcher as well. Well, then if you came to me for your research, it must mean that it's our research. You wouldn't ask someone a question that they are oblivious to, would you?"

"Good grief Xiayen. Why did you have to say that it's our research? You make it sound so- Never mind... Ehe~"

"Pshh… Just come inside already." Xiayen rolled her eyes for a quick second, before making way for me to enter through the door.

"Sure thing." I replied, before I made my way inside her house, which was as messy as the time I first visited her.

As I made my way into the house, I didn't say a word, and simply continued to walk while occasionally picking up a few pieces of papers here and there.

While holding the bunch of papers, I stacked them in a precise order, which I did by simply following my preferences and instincts. Even picking the pieces of papers was all done through preference and instincts. If I felt that a piece of paper looked oddly familiar or out of place, I would simply put them to my collection. That's how simple the process was, because I believed that my luck would be able to help me in a way, like the usual. At least, I hoped it would...

"So you did come for my research. Hihi~" Xiayen asked me with a sly smile on her face, as she was feeling quite happy and proud from seeing how interested I was in her work.

"Correction. Our research~" I simply told her, since I had nothing else to say.

"You're now using my own words against me. How cute… What are you looking for anyways? And how does my research correlate to yours?"

"I'm not sure… They're both about the nature of this world, I guess?" I replied to her in a tone that was full of uncertainty while continuing to reorganize the stack of papers.

"Ahh… Got it." I uttered not long after my previous words, when my instincts told me that everything the stack of papers was perfect.

"Hmm... Let me see." Xiayen requested.

With Xiayen being quite short, I had to hold the papers further away from my chin, in order for her to see whatever is written on them.

Xiayen was an entire foot shorter than I am at the moment, so it was quite understandable for her to force my arms downwards.

"The differences between a human and demon's body… Ah… So, you want to know how to harness demonic energy, I'm guessing." Xiayen uttered after looking at the subjects within the papers that I was holding onto.

There were papers that explained how PP energy might truly function, and there were papers that questioned the existence of demonic energy. All in all, it was a good source of questions and theories, and indeed as I had expected, they were all about the questions that I am looking for as well. Oh thank the goodness that I have luck by my side…

"Kind of. But the thing about the demonic energy is not that important as of now, since it's still a difficult subject to cross. I'm thinking about the biology of us, the human kind, because there is something very interesting that I've discovered not too long ago…"

"Interesting… Care to tell me about it? I promise not to spoil your secrets until you give me the permission to. Evidence that relates to science must be discussed thoroughly first before it is published, after all..."

"Hmm… Very well then. Let's remove our robes, so we can talk about the very thing that gives us the ability to cultivate." I told Xiayen, which she nodded to, since there was nothing wrong with my words. I mean like… It's for scientific purposes.

Hehehe…

Of course, I made sure to distribute some of my PP points towards my outer PP level, in order to make it seem like I do have the PP of a male from this world.

Xiayen studies the human body and so on, which is exactly why I needed to be cautious. Who knows if she might discover the fact that I am not from this world, just because of a slight difference between my little brother and theirs...

By little brother I mean the Male type of PP, of course…
