Someone in Honkai, This Narration Is Not Right / Honkai Scroll Dog Dao Chapter 45

This fragment's upper limit isn't low.

However, the original owner of this item, who interfered with the real world using it, disappeared afterward.

[Precisely, the wielder of this fragment, Minase Yuka, was absorbed by the fragment's original owner after overusing her abilities.]

[Although the original owner of the fragment doesn't exist in this world, that doesn't mean overusing abilities won't come with a price.]

[Don't think that disappearing after use means being transferred elsewhere. Without a backup plan, disappearing is equivalent to death.]

[This system resurrected you once, but that doesn't mean the system will resurrect you again the moment you die in the future.]

[While this might seem a bit heartless, it's better to make things clear in advance—so you don't end up cursing this system before you die after messing up.]

Well, thank you very much for that.

But these words... why do I feel like they're full of stories and accidents?

[This involves an accident.]

It really was an accident!

[This system has a predecessor, the one who manufactured it before. They added 'character templates' to the lottery system.]

[Character templates have a ridiculously large gap between their upper and lower limits, but drawing a good one is equivalent to getting a set of divine skills.]

[However, the awkward part is that the character template only provided abilities and skills, not equipment.]

And then?

[Then, they had a tester who drew the Wild Leopard Qin Hong template.]

Oh, isn't that great?

[But the Wild Leopard Qin Hong template was taken from his most unhinged period. Only the First Generation Dream Weaver Computer could keep his brain functioning normally.]

...You're not going to tell me the person who drew this didn't have the computer implanted and insisted on using the template, are you?

[Congratulations, you've learned to answer before I finish speaking.]

[The predecessor of this system tried to advise them, but didn't emphasize the seriousness of the warning enough. As a result, that idiot thought they were the Chosen One and directly merged with it.]

[And then there was no "then."]

[So, after knowing about this, this system felt that dangerous items should be explained a little more clearly.]

[Don't go cursing this system behind my back when you overuse it and turn into a ghost, that wouldn't be good.]

I really don't know what to say.

Speechless, Lin Yu used another item, the [Advanced Skill Book Lottery Ticket].

After seeing a large number of skills flash by, Lin Yu saw a blue skill book floating in front of him.

[Skill Book - Powerful Healing Technique]

[Powerful Healing Technique — This skill can be activated using Mana. After activation, the healing technique can be used in three ways.]

[Instant Activation — Consumes less Mana, instantly activates a healing technique, providing moderate healing to the target.]

[Quick Activation — Consumes a small amount of Mana, quickly completes a healing technique, providing significant healing to the target.]

[Full Power Activation — Consumes a large amount of Mana, requires one minute of casting. After casting, it provides extremely significant healing to the target character, and can to some extent heal old wounds on the target.]

[Note: Regardless of the chosen activation method, you cannot move your body while using this skill.]

[Note 2: If you cannot maintain a stable state of mind while using magic, it may cause the magic to fail and result in the caster being backlashed by the magic. Please be extremely careful.]

Wow, that's amazing.

[Alright, the reward claim ends here. Let this system see...]

[As the reward claim concludes, you feel your inner confidence has increased by a few points.]

[Output, defense, support, control, healing — you can now be considered a jack-of-all-trades!]

[With this confidence, if you can continue developing at this pace, one day you won't have to live like this with a bunch of cameras around...]

[Oh, apologies, correction. Due to the Herrscher of Thunder's awakening, all nearby electromagnetic equipment has exploded.]

[In short, you feel very powerful right now, you could even one-punch that damn dog Otto to death!]

If possible, I'd prefer it if you didn't add so much flair when narrating.

I'm not some super righteous person... Besides, a super righteous person wouldn't just kill Otto right off the bat.

Please don't think of him as a comical character who can be easily dealt with.

He's very strong.

And he's very useful.

[Otto is very useful — you are sure your judgment is correct.]

[He has led Schicksal for five hundred years, suppressed the entire world while guiding Schicksal Knights and Valkyries to save countless people.]

[Even if he is an outright villain, his achievements cannot be negated because of that.]

[The previous era wrote the strategy, and Otto was undoubtedly the most suitable person to execute that strategy, so you decided...]

[—Let him be smug for a few days first. After he finishes his business, I'll find an opportunity to kill him, storm Schicksal, and take his position!]

You've been reading "Water Margin" lately, haven't you?

Alright, I get it. There are no cameras around, right?

Strange, why isn't it responding?

[Um, Host, this system will say one last thing.]

[The system won't skimp on necessary explanations, nor will it be lazy with the narration it needs to provide, but...]

[Too much rambling will get me scolded, I hope you understand that.]

...Fine.

After resting on the ground for a few minutes, Lin Yu slowly stood up.

After helping Mei to her feet, Lin Yu took out the white plastic chair he had drawn earlier and had Mei lean against it.

Meanwhile, Siegfried, who had recovered minimal mobility, picked up the Flame-Chaser's Judgment from the ground and looked at Lin Yu with extreme vigilance.

Although from their recent fight, Siegfried had a rough idea that Lin Yu had held back when they fought earlier.

But that didn't mean Siegfried would completely let his guard down against the young man before him.

After all, the other party was from Schicksal.

And he was someone who believed in Otto and not Anti-Entropy... well, to be precise, he believed in Otto and not Cocolia.

There was nothing inherently wrong with that. If Siegfried hadn't been a victim of Otto's schemes and didn't know Otto's true nature, he probably would have made the same judgment as Lin Yu.

After all, Cocolia was truly foolish and despicable, with absolutely no value in being trusted.

But now, facing Otto's subordinate, if he were to just walk up with a smile and say, "Hey kid, thanks a lot. I'll be going now if there's nothing else"...

This young man had ability, courage, and a sharp mind. Siegfried's attempt at deception would likely be met with the thought, "Are you treating me like an idiot?" and would successfully provoke him.

Upon seeing Siegfried before him, Lin Yu suddenly had an idea.

Although the system had told him not to overuse the Phantasia Barrier ability, the problem was that when acquiring weapons and equipment, if there was an opportunity to test their performance in a safe environment, it was better to complete the test beforehand.

This way, he could more accurately judge the timing of skill usage in actual combat.

Just like before, when Lin Yu fought Siegfried, he had actually considered using the Cosmic Phantom.

But because he had never used the skill before and couldn't accurately gauge the charge time, Lin Yu ultimately didn't find an opportunity to use it.

After all, Siegfried was a powerful warrior. If he saw Lin Yu charging up in place, even if Lin Yu could unleash the Cosmic Phantom, Siegfried could probably dodge it in advance and then exploit the opening Lin Yu exposed after throwing the punch to take him down.

Lin Yu didn't know if the enemies he would face in the future would be like Siegfried, individuals with rich combat experience.

But it was better to be prepared. Getting ready now was much better than being caught off guard later and dying at the hands of an enemy.

So...

Sorry, Fei Ge!

Siegfried, who had been constantly vigilant of Lin Yu, suddenly felt a strange fluctuation in the space before him.

And the next moment, when Siegfried saw the world before him shatter like a mirror, he couldn't react in time...

—He was thus pulled into another world.

"Dad? Dad!"

Upon hearing a shout, Siegfried slowly opened his eyes.

Strange, why do I feel... feel... feel what?

"Dad, wake up quickly!"

In front of Siegfried, an angry white-haired girl saw him stir slightly and, full of annoyance, jumped up and stomped on Siegfried's bedding.

"...Guh!"

Hit in the abdomen, Siegfried let out a cry of pain and, clutching his stomach, got up from the bed.

"Kiana... didn't I tell you..."

"You said yourself that you couldn't be late for the company meeting today!"

Facing Siegfried's displeased attitude, Kiana pointed aggressively at the alarm clock.

"It's eight o'clock!"

"Sigh, I start work at nine, there's still plenty of time..."

Staggering out of bed, Siegfried rubbed the back of his head groggily and squinted at his left arm.

My left arm... it's still here?

What a stupid question. I have both hands, a beautiful wife, and two obedient daughters...

Okay, maybe the two daughters aren't that obedient.

But I'm very happy!

With that thought, Siegfried hummed a cheerful little tune and walked out of his room.

"Dear, you're finally awake."

Upon seeing Siegfried, his wife, Cecilia Schariac, said to him with her hands on her hips.

"Hurry up and get ready. Uncle Otto already said today's meeting is very important."

"Cecilia..."

Looking at his wife before him, Siegfried was momentarily mesmerized.

"Um, dear?"

Noticing Siegfried's strange expression, Cecilia suddenly said with a bit of unease.

"If you're really not feeling well, maybe I can ask Uncle Otto for leave..."

"No... I'm fine."

Haha, my wife is still here.

Why did I freeze for a moment over something so trivial?

"Mom, I'm leaving first."

At the entrance, a young girl with long golden hair turned back and said to Siegfried.
