บท 204: Just before

Alex logged back into the game at around 9 pm and decided to make some more pills for now. During the next 3 hours, he made the pills, he managed to make exactly 2 pills in heaven grade. 

One of them was a metal-aligned pill, so it was not a surprise when it came out with 53% harmony. However, he was pleasantly surprised that the wood-aligned pill also turned out to be 50% harmony. 

He was quite happy with himself with this result. 

"Once again, I can't cultivate, can I?" he thought. He needed to wake up at 6 tomorrow morning as well, so he just didn't cultivate once more. He didn't want to fall asleep and not wake up in time. 

So, he called out Pearl once more. "Meow," Pearl said as it came out. He walked up to Alex and started licking his arms. Alex slowly rubbed his back and said, "We are going to cultivate once more, buddy. You alright with that?" he asked. 

"Meow," Pearl screamed in confirmation.
