Upon entering Partyz Bar, Toki couldn't help but shout.

"H-How could you be here?"

Toki was stunned. She couldn't believe her eyes.

Behind the bar's counter is a warm-looking young woman. She has dark green hair tied with a yellow-blue patterned strip and deep brown eyes.

She wore clean yet charming clothes, a long-sleeved yellow shirt, and a navy blue pleated skirt. She also wore a white apron over her shirt to prevent liquor from dirtying her clothes.

However, the most noticeable feature is the young woman's warm smile.

To Toki, seeing that warm smile reminded her of that tragedy.

Toki clenched her hand and murmured, "Makino..."

Yes, the young woman is none other than Makino, Toki's step-sister.

The same step-sister who sacrificed herself to protect Toki from Imu's cunning scheme. She has died and reincarnated into Tiny World's native, forgetting her roots as the Great Toki Royalty's descendant.

Seeing her like this made Toki feel complicated.

Toki was happy and sad.

Makino's current life seems peaceful, which makes Toki feel relieved her step-sister is doing well after reincarnation.

However, Toki also felt saddened because Makino's sacrifice to protect her was futile. After escaping Imu, despite the injury, Toki's main body forgot about her heritage and died not long after.

The current Toki is not the same Toki who died in Wano. She's Time Remnant revived by her benefactor, Huo Yuhao.

"Hmm, have we met before?" Makino leaned on the counter, finding Toki very familiar for some reason.

Toki forced a smile, "No, we don't."

'I suppose you have forgotten about me.'

"This is our first time meeting each other."

"Is that so?" Makino rubbed her chin. "Well, what about a free drink?"

"Partyz Bar just opened a month ago. We didn't have many customers because Elwood is a strangely competitive field among merchants and bar owners, so we need loyal customers now."

'I see, so this is what happened.' Hearing Makino's words, Toki realized something. It is what Rossweisse has been saying for years.

The change in timeline creates an unknown future.

At this time, Makino should have stayed in Foosha Village, a rural place in East Blue. However, Huo Yuhao arrived two years ago in this timeline and turned Tequila Wolf, the sad camp where lives weren't appreciated, into essentially a paradise.

Although Tiny World hasn't entered the Cultivation World era, the danger still loomed in the shadows. Being an ordinary person is no different than being an animal on a chopping block.

Toki knew this better than anyone. "Will Yuhao-sama help if I ask for his help? I've owed him too much favor." She sighed and rubbed her forehead.

"I don't want to burden him."

"Pfft, burden." Rossweisse scoffed at her. "Who doesn't feel burdened by Yuhao-sama's favors these days? Forget about paying him back, so doing your best to service him is more than enough."

"Also, don't think about easing Yuhao-sama's heavy burden. His matters are not something we can't put our noses into."

"Just be a good servant and do insignificant jobs, allowing him to focus more on important matters."

After hearing this, Toki finally gave Rossweisse a nod. "You're right."

"We can't interfere with Yuhao-sama's matters, but if we help him with mundane things, we can relieve him of the small matters."

'It will also help me gain his affection.' She silently added her mind.

"I'm back. Here is your drink!" Makino returned with a pine for Rossweisse.

Rossweisse smiled, "Thank you."

"How much for this drink and hers?"

Makino waved her hand, "It's on the bar today. I haven't had any customers for a while now, so today's drinks are free."

"Hehe, of course, next time you need to pay."

Rossweisse was stunned by Makino's words before giggling because no wonder Toki looked troubled. Such a friendly person shouldn't get dragged into a chaotic mess of others.

"Well, thank you very much for the drink then," Rossweisse replied, drinking her beer joyfully.

Toki shook her head helplessly and drank her beer.

Makino took a stool and asked, "Toki-san, Rossweisse-san, I haven't seen people like you in Elwood before. I don't know how to put it, but you possessed this otherworldly aura..."

'Ah, she might lose her memory, but not her talent.' Toki thought after hearing Makino's question.

Rossweisse nudged Toki, giving her a 'this is your problem' look.

Toki placed her drink down and said, "We are here for a mission. You will know about it soon."

"Eh, I'm curious now." Since Elwood is known as the City of Peace, Makino is curious about Toki's mysterious business. After all, Makino had already served one of Yonko, so she wasn't nervous about this kind of thing.

Toki was speechless by Makino's determination.

"You see... Elwood will change in a few days but don't worry. It's a good chance for everyone in the city." A voice entered the bar.

Before Makino could react, she saw a handsome young man lean on the counter with a faint smile. He looked dashing and made Makino's heart skip a beat.

"Yuhao-sama!" Toki and Rossweisse were surprised by his sudden appearance.

"W-Who you might be?" Meanwhile, Makino couldn't help but ask.

Huo Yuhao tapped his finger on the table gently and replied, "Nice to meet you. My name is Huo Yuhao."

"Can I order a drink?"
