Not long after Kiana brought Bai Ge back on her back, he woke up on his own. He stopped the two women who were planning to send him to the hospital, declaring that he had fully recovered.

After this incident, the relationship between the three of them grew even closer. Kiana no longer hid anything about Honkai, and told them everything about herself.

Mei received the video message left by Raiden Ryoma, and finally understood her situation. However, the overwhelming amount of information left her recovering for quite some time.

"Did... did I kill someone..."

Upon learning what she had done while in her Herrscher form, the cook's face turned pale. For a 17-year-old high school girl, the word "murder" was far too heavy.

Fortunately, Bai Ge and Kiana were there.

"It's not Mei's fault, it was all Cocolia's evil scheme."

"Yeah, yeah, besides, Mei, this was self-defense. Don't worry too much about it."

"...Mm."

Perhaps the recent events had strengthened Mei's mindset, as she managed to calm down relatively quickly with their comfort.

Moreover, what Mei feared most just now wasn't the fact that she had killed someone, but rather that she would be disliked by Bai Ge and Kiana for becoming a murderer.

Seeing that they were as usual, she was relieved.

Afterward, to lighten the mood, celebrate the successful prevention of the great Honkai, and thank Bai Ge and Kiana for coming to help her, Mei cooked a grand meal.

The Raiden family's living room had never been so lively.

The three of them sat around a small round table, their shared experience of overcoming a dangerous ordeal bringing them closer, creating a warm and beautiful atmosphere.

"Hmm? Is all this Divine Land cuisine? Mei, you really learned it." Bai Ge looked at the table full of Divine Land dishes with surprise, his appetite whetted.

"Because Bai Ge, you said you wanted to eat it before, so I've been practicing recently. Could you taste it?" Mei said shyly, her face flushed.

"Of course. Hmm! As expected, Mei's cooking is great! It's delicious and the flavor is quite authentic. It would be great if I could marry a wife like Mei in the future~" Bai Ge exclaimed sincerely.

Whoever could marry a wife like the cook would truly have accumulated eight lifetimes of good fortune. He wondered into whose clutches this super, invincible, ultimate good girl would fall.

Wait? The most likely person is me? That's troublesome!

"W-wife, cough cough, Bai Ge, if you like it, eat more. There's still plenty in the pot."

"Ah, Mei, Mei, I've had my eye on that chicken leg for a long time."

"Good girl~ Kiana, Bai Ge is very tired today, so let him replenish his strength properly."

"Uh, I'm really fine, though."

Bai Ge said with a wry smile. However, since it was Mei's kind intention, he naturally wouldn't ignore it. So, he could only finish the chicken leg in front of an envious Kiana.

But this grasshopper eats really fast. Before one could notice, the dishes were almost all gone. So, the two of them started another battle of chopsticks.

"Heh heh."

Mei watched this scene gently, not saying a word. If possible, she truly wished for time to stand still at this moment.

Half an hour later, the three of them... or rather, Kiana, finally licked the entire pot clean, not wasting a single bit of the cook's skill.

Bai Ge glanced at her slender waist and slightly bulging belly, thinking that the Kaslana family's physique was truly a mystery. How could this grasshopper fit so much food into her stomach?

A normal person's stomach would probably have burst.

"Alright, don't lie down after eating, come with me to wash the dishes."

"Ehh~~ No, no, I don't want to wash dishes."

"Kiana, believe it or not, I won't share Mei's bento with you next time."

"Ah? Bai Ge, you're mean!"

In the end, Kiana reluctantly got up and washed the dishes. Afterward, the three of them sat on the sofa, not knowing what to do.

Finally, Mei turned on the cooking channel on the TV, tuning in on time for today's Divine Land cuisine special.

Bai Ge and Kiana were naturally not interested, so they picked up their phones and started playing games.

It was peaceful, as if nothing had happened.

"Hey, hey, Bai Ge, what are you doing? Go easy on me!"

"Esports. Being bad is the original sin."

"Damn it, watch my amazing skills! Eh?!"

"Indeed amazing. This is the first time I've seen someone take themselves out with a set of smooth combos."

It seemed that Mother-in-law's excellent gaming talent hadn't been passed down to this girl. Bai Ge remembered that in the story, Cecilia, upon first encountering electronic games, had directly dominated Siegfried.

There was no sense of accomplishment in bullying a noob, so Bai Ge switched to another game, "Kallen Fantasy IV."

He flipped through the game's player rankings and, as expected, the ID of the first-ranked player was "Uncle Ma, the Green Pipe."

It was Otto's account ID!

He suppressed the urge to send a private message to this account saying, "I am Kallen, now V me 50 to wish me resurrection, and I will make you the Grand Bishop of Schicksal in the future."

It's better not to die.

As Kiana's ultimate fan, Otto dominated all player leaderboards in "Kiana Fantasy Series."

Bai Ge started playing this game with the initial goal of surpassing that dog Otto in the rankings, just like Cecilia did back then.

Although he couldn't make Otto's soul-steel face crunch in his hands yet, it would still be good to win a small victory in the game.

In the end, the two of them played until it was dark, so they decided to stay at Mei's place. The cook certainly didn't mind; in fact, she welcomed them warmly.

"Haaah~ I'm so sleepy. Kiana, you can have the guest room. Just give me a sofa."

"How can that be!" x2

The two women said in unison. Bai Ge blinked, wondering if he had said something strange.

Then, they started to insist on giving him the room, both of them saying they absolutely didn't mind sleeping on the sofa or the floor.

But Bai Ge stated that he minded very much.

As a man, it would be too embarrassing to let two girls sleep on the sofa and floor while he slept in the bed.

In the end, Bai Ge got the guest room all to himself, and Kiana and Mei slept together... Damn it, Kiana Cat ended up getting the biggest advantage.

"Mei, this is for you."

Bai Ge handed the Pulse Katana Type 19 to the girl after thinking for a moment, and gave Kiana a bright smile.

"If Kiana does anything strange to you tonight, don't hold back and castrate, uh, stab her!"

"Bai Ge, that's too much! What do you mean 'I do strange things'? Am I that kind of person?"

"Uh, sorry Kiana, I'm not interested in that way, so I can't bring you happiness."

"Wuwuwu Mei, it's not like that~"

Mei gave a wry smile. Unlike in the original story, her sexual orientation wasn't skewed by the "Grasshopper" anymore, so she took the Pulse Katana Type 19.

At the same time, her gaze towards Bai Ge... held a hint of regret.

Mei: 'If only Kiana could be replaced by Bai Ge. Ah, what am I thinking?'

Kiana: "Huh? Mei, why is your face red? Let me see!"

Bai Ge: "Eh~ Is this girl still salvageable?"

Fourth update, seeking flowers, votes, and tips.

Chapter Twenty-Six: I Was Born Ordinary, But I Refuse to Be Ordinary (Seeking Support for New Book)

When the night was deep and silent.

Bai Ge walked out of his room after the two girls had fallen asleep.

Even though Mei and Kiana were very excited to have a friend stay over at their place for the first time, the events of the day had left them mentally exhausted, and they were sleeping soundly.

Bai Ge walked into the bathroom alone.

He looked at himself in the mirror.

He unbuttoned his pajamas one by one.

Incidentally, the pajamas belonged to Mei's father, so they didn't fit perfectly. However, the cook was thinking that if someone were willing to stay permanently, she wouldn't mind preparing a special set for him.

But that wasn't the key point right now.

[Host, you're about to die.]

"Yeah, I'm about to die."

Hearing the system state the fact, Bai Ge smiled bitterly and sighed. He pulled open his pajamas, revealing his upper body.

The reflection in the mirror looked terrifying.

His skin had a pale, silicone-like texture, with purple Honkai Energy residue. It was evident that Bai Ge's body was transforming towards becoming a Deathly.

Perhaps many people overlooked it, but he wasn't a typical overpowered protagonist in a wish-fulfillment novel.

From the very beginning, the boy named Bai Ge was just an ordinary person who had transmigrated into the world of Honkai Impact.
