# Honkai, but with a Spirit Simulator

## Author: Key Key Key

### Introduction:

I transmigrated to the world of Honkai. While others experience a soul inhabiting a body, Liu Bai underwent a true soul transmigration, becoming a Spirit, complete with a so-called [Spirit Simulator].

Left with no choice, Liu Bai began simulating his existence, again and again.

Aponia calls me Lord God.

Mobius always wants to study me.

Seele holds me in great esteem.

Durandal has been successfully led astray by me.

Nothing really happened between Rita and me.

After clearing Honkai, Liu Bai looked at the girls surrounding him with smiles and fell silent.

Why didn't anyone tell him that he would become a living person after clearing the game?

### Chapter 1: Can Someone Who Doesn't Play Cards Still Become a Spirit?

How did he end up transmigrating?

Liu Bai floated in the air, staring with a helpless expression at the smooth back of the maid in front of him.

If he remembered correctly, he was just helping his group friends appreciate an excellent Honkai Impact 3rd MMD work. What happened after that?

Oh, right, his computer exploded.

Liu Bai felt a phantom pain in his head—even though ghosts don't have heads.

So, he was sent to the world of Honkai?

Well, that makes sense, too much sense, so much sense that he was almost drowned in it.

But generally, when someone transmigrates, shouldn't they have a body?

Why did he end up as a true soul transmigration?

That's right, he was now a ghost, and a Spirit at that—and by the way, he couldn't play cards.

And his current host was none other than the maid he was very familiar with, the S-Rank Valkyrie, the vice-captain of the Unfading Blades SquadRita Rossweisse.

"Strange..."

Rita paused as she was about to pour herself a cup of black tea. For some reason, she suddenly felt a chill down her spine.

Rita calmed herself, acting as if she hadn't noticed anything, and continued pouring her tea with a composed expression.

Am I being watched?

Is it Otto?

No, the Bishop wouldn't be so idle.

(...Interesting, has some small bug snuck in?)

Rita pondered in her mind, while Liu Bai, the source of all evil, was in shock.

Ding! Spirit Simulator has been loaded! This simulator will train the host to become a qualified Spirit. Note, the host cannot leave a fifty-meter radius around the possessed, or they will be automatically teleported back behind the host. Please note! This system does not prevent the host from communicating spiritually with the host's possessor, but this system is not responsible for any resulting situations such as romantic entanglements, love triangles, or yandere scenarios. Please deal with them yourself. Please note! To effectively help the host become an outstanding Spirit, the final simulation results of this simulator will be reflected in reality. Please play carefully! Although this is a simulator, it's not a game—by the System.

...Where should he even begin to complain?

Liu Bai had a feeling that he had gotten stuck with an unreliable system.

Is your spiritual communication even proper? Isn't that something a system should consider? And aren't you plagiarizing those lines!

Newbie skill—Haunt lv1 has been issued, please check.

However, the system didn't pay any attention to Liu Bai, and the mechanical voice continued to play.

At the same time, a panel appeared in Liu Bai's mind.

[Spirit: Liu Bai] [Skill: Haunt lv.1] [Host: Rita Rossweisse (Compatibility: 0%)]

Haunt?

Liu Bai glanced at the skill somewhat strangely. Its effect was simple: it allowed him to manipulate objects out of thin air or inflict debuffs on others. Are you sure this isn't a skill only spirits have?

At level 1, Haunt could, at most, lift an apple or make someone sneeze.

Liu Bai watched Rita take a cup of black tea and return to her chair. He slowly floated behind her and reached out to gently pat her shoulder.

As an S-Rank Valkyrie, how rich was Rita's combat experience? Feeling the touch on her shoulder, she subconsciously struck back, but grabbed only air. This left Rita, who had intended to follow up with a grappling move, awkwardly frozen in place.

What was going on? Where was the person? There was no mistake; someone had definitely patted her shoulder just now.

Rita maintained her awkward grappling posture, lost in self-doubt.

Liu Bai, watching the jade hand pass through his body in an instant, broke out in a cold sweat—though he didn't have that function.

He hadn't even seen Rita's movements clearly. If he still had a physical body, he probably would have been taken down by Rita without any resistance.

"..."

Rita retracted her grappling posture and silently touched her forehead.

Well, I don't have a fever... I think.

"Could it be a ghost?" Rita sighed. The ever-composed maid suddenly understood how the words "spooky" were written.

The system's voice rang in Liu Bai's mind.

[Please note, the first simulation is about to begin] [Simulation location: Dusk Alley] [This simulation's host: Aponia] [Simulation start—]

Liu Bai's perspective began to shift.

[You have become Aponia's Spirit, current compatibility 0%] [You tried to use your Haunt ability to tell her of your existence, but failed. After all, the existence of a ghost is too ethereal] [Your arrival did not change Aponia's life. She is still the nun who grew up in Dusk Alley, repeating the same unchanging life] [Dusk Alley is chaotic and disorderly. Even a nun like Aponia, who is detached from the world, is occasionally targeted. You began to use your meager Haunt ability to drive away villains who tried to approach Aponia] [Although your power is weak, a series of small misfortunes will always make people back down. Over time, Aponia gained nicknames in Dusk Alley such as "the spooky nun" and "the lucky nun." Current compatibility: 5%] [Aponia gradually realized something. She began to pray. You realized that the object of her prayer was you. You used your Haunt ability to communicate with her formally. Current compatibility 15%] [She began to call you Lord God. You tried to explain to her, but to no avail. Current compatibility: 30%] [Aponia began to carry paper and pen with her so that she could communicate with you] [The two of you became more and more familiar. Current compatibility: 35%] [The two of you became more and more familiar. Current compatibility: 40%] [Aponia began to confide in you. You gradually found common ground with her. Current compatibility: 50%] [Honkai broke out. Aponia took in and protected the source of the Honkai disease in the sanatorium. You were worried about this. Aponia understood your concerns, but did not stop her actions. You could only remind her to be careful] [During Aponia's actions, you met Pardofelis—although she didn't know you] [Aponia rescued a man named Kalpas. Soon after, the sanatorium had a very capable mover.] [Honkai broke out in Dusk Alley. You, who only possessed the Haunt ability, were powerless to do anything about it and could only remind Aponia to be careful recently] [Sakura discovered the sanatorium as scheduled. Although you had reminded Aponia, facing a Fusion Warrior skilled in assassination, Aponia had no ability to fight back. The opponent easily discovered and bypassed Kalpas, who was guarding the gate, and infiltrated the sanatorium] [In the darkness, a blade with a glittering cold light easily pierced Aponia's chest as she kept watch at night] [—Simulation ended]

Second Chapter Second Simulation

[Simulation rating: C (It's not that you didn't do anything, but you might as well have done nothing)] [Acquired skill: Persuasion lv2 (Your words and actions will be more persuasive)] [Opened story segment: Dusk Alley · Aponia] [Confirm final results?]

"No, no, no, no, no!"

Liu Bai's face turned green. How could he confirm this? If he confirmed it, Aponia would be gone!

[Result discarded, remaining simulation attempts for today: 1]

"Again!"

Liu Bai already had a new idea in his mind.

[Please select a specific story segment, or perform a random simulation]

(Specific! Dusk Alley · Aponia!)

[Segment confirmed—simulation start!]

Liu Bai's perspective shifted again.

[You have become Aponia's Spirit, current affinity 0%]

Before Liu Bai, the blonde nun was piously engaged in her daily prayers.

Thwack!

Liu Bai, watching this familiar scene, heavily patted Aponia's shoulder—though his "heavily" was only with the strength of picking up an apple.

"Eh?"

Aponia felt the touch on her shoulder and couldn't help but look back, but there was no one behind her.

"A prank?"

Aponia looked outside with confusion, but before she could figure anything out, she felt something grasp her hand.

A ghost?

Aponia looked at her hand in confusion, though there was nothing in it, she could clearly feel the grip on her hand.

It was very weak; Aponia felt she could shake it off with a light flick.

But inexplicably, Aponia felt a sense of trust from her hand, a feeling that prevented her from immediately shaking it off.

Perhaps I will become a nun who is bewitched and killed by a ghost?

Aponia thought calmly. At the same time, Aponia felt the invisible hand begin to take further action.

Affinity +10%

It wasn't the worst situation Aponia had imagined. The hands opened her palm and gently drew something in Aponia's palm with its finger.
