Thor had spent the last few days staying in New Hong Kong, thoroughly enjoying the life of the rich.

He stayed in luxury hotels and enjoyed the good life and all kinds of services.

Unbeknownst to him, Domon Kasshu had already arrived in Shinjuku, Neon Country, at the same time, officially beginning his journey of battling the Devil Gundam.

But that had nothing to do with Thor for the time being. He would only be able to launch the Gundam Fight the next time he returned.

When the time for his crossing arrived, the system gave him a prompt.

Thor Kny's vision went black, and he returned to his home in Heliopolis.

"Everything goes black when I leave or return. If I fainted, then I fainted. I didn't feel anything.

"Nami, hack into the water system and alter the water bill."

"Command received, Master."

It could not be helped. Children from poor families matured early, and Thor had worried himself sick over such a tiny water bill.

"Host, you have completed your first crossing and received one random draw. Would you like to use it?"

"Fine, System. Use it immediately."

"Congratulations, Host. You have obtained one Elixir of Immortality (from the Mythological TV World)."

"Holy shit, seriously? That's amazing. I won't have to worry about my lifespan anymore.

"Mom will never have to worry about me running out of lifespan while crossing worlds again. Hahaha, I should just take it now."

Thor swallowed the Elixir of Immortality, and his entire body felt as though it had been struck by a massive burst of static electricity.

At the same time, Nami reminded him, "Master, magnetic interference has been detected within your body. The magnetic fields of your cells are changing. Should they be eliminated?"

Thor said in shock, "Nami, absolutely don't eliminate them. Let it modify me. Once the modification is complete, analyze my physical condition."

"Yes, Master. Nami understands."

Thor Kny successfully completed the Elixir of Immortality's modification, after which Nami performed a comprehensive examination.

It found that the Elixir of Immortality used substances within the medicine to generate a special magnetic field that modified the human body.

It formed a fixed biological magnetic field and accelerated the recovery of vitality.

Nonfatal injuries could not kill him, and his lifespan had been extended by more than two thousand years.

If the special substance were transferred into the bones, then the magnetic field of the surrounding environment could be modified.

Combined with the body's internal magnetic field, it could extend one's lifespan even further, to at least ten thousand years.

Nami could simulate and replicate this magnetic field inside the Nano Suit, extending one's lifespan to over ten thousand years.

Thor said in shock, "That's insanely awesome, Nami. Modify me, then.

"If the special substance is transferred into my bones, can other people undergo Longevity Modification too?"

Nami replied, "Master, it can be done. Their bones can be directly modified to generate a special magnetic field.

"However, the effect will not be as strong as it is for you, Master. The key substance that maintains the magnetic field cannot be replaced.

"The maximum lifespan extension would be five hundred years. Combined with the Nano Suit's magnetic field, it could reach around five thousand years.

"They may also undergo multiple modifications to further extend their lifespans."

"Nami, you're getting more and more awesome. Combined with Rejuvenation Modification and Longevity Modification,

"Even the people around me can become immortal in the future. That's fucking incredible.

"When I get the chance, I'll modify Miriaria too and make her immortal.

"Later, I can also use Longevity Modification to tempt those rulers and high-ranking officials. In any world, immortality is humanity's greatest pursuit. Maybe SEED World can be unified through this.

"Sigh, forget it. That's still far away. I should take a bath first. I smell a little strange."

After bathing, Thor Kny followed his memories and took a stroll around his neighborhood. He went to supermarkets and shops, bought some things, and filled the refrigerator at home.

At the very least, there had been food in the refrigerator before he crossed worlds. It would not do for everything to be gone by the time Miriaria returned.

When he had time, he also needed to ask Miriaria Haw out a few more times and explore all of Heliopolis.

This was not using public business for private gain. It was important. In places that looked roughly like the environments from the anime, he needed to place some Nano DG Cells.

They could usually transform into cats, dogs, birds, beasts, streetlamps, grass, and the like. When an organism passed by, they could latch onto it and steal data on the unit.

PS Armor in particular was of vital importance. With it, a unit's safety factor would soar.

He could obtain PS Armor data after boarding the Archangel, but then he would not get the data for the other four Gundam units.

So he needed to make arrangements early and acquire the data for the other four Gundams as soon as possible.

After buying everything, Thor returned home and also found all the textbooks and homework he could locate.

Nami stored all the contents of the textbooks. He would not have to fear exams in the future.

Using his auxiliary brain, he could search and look things up directly. With a glance at an exam question, all the answers would automatically appear in his mind.

What an awesome top-tier cheating method. If he had possessed this thing before, he would definitely have ranked first in every subject.

It was past four thirty in the afternoon, and Miriaria Haw would be back soon, so Thor began preparing dinner.

He started rice in the cooker and stewed a pot of soup, calling it done for now.

He could cook the rest after she came back. There were only two of them, after all. Even if Kira came over, there would be no problem. His cooking skills, honed over many years, were still there.

That evening, just as Thor Kny had expected, Miriaria Haw arrived together with Kira Yamato.

Kira Yamato had come to check on Thor's illness and had also brought review materials from class.

When Miriaria Haw returned home, she asked,

"Thor, why did you prepare all the food today? Weren't you feeling unwell? Are you better now?"

"Miriaria, I got better this afternoon, so I went to the shops and bought some things.

"It was still early, so I made the rice and soup. The dishes will be ready shortly.

"Kira, I made a little too much. Stay for dinner tonight."

Kira Yamato said, "Sure. I've never had your cooking, and it saves me from having to make something alone when I get home.

"I envy you two. You're already together, unlike me, living by myself."

Miriaria Haw said, "Don't envy Thor and me, Kira. You just need to find someone too. You're not bad yourself.

"Want me to introduce someone to you?"

Kira Yamato said shyly,

"Who would like someone like me?"

Thor Kny cut in, "Miriaria, Kira actually has a secret crush. It's Frey Alstar."

Miriaria Haw said in surprise,

"Eh? Frey Alstar, the daughter of George Alstar, the Atlantic Federation's Deputy Foreign Minister?

"A lot of people are pursuing her. It'll be difficult for Kira."

Thor Kny said, "Yeah, that Frey Alstar.

"If Kira likes her, he should fight for her bravely. As long as she isn't married, he has a chance. Otherwise, he can only secretly watch other people feed him couple content until he's full."

Thor silently added, In the future, you really do get her, and she's even the one who takes you to bed first.

Kira said helplessly, "It's not like you two think. I just think Frey is cute.

"There's no other meaning to it. Besides, I'm already full from eating your couple content. I don't have room for anyone else's."
