Starting with Firefly, Speedrun the World

Forget it. Since I can't figure it out, I'll just leave it for now.

I'll get to the bottom of it sooner or later anyway, and no matter how the world is remade, as an outsider, she remains unaffected.

Unlike the ordinary people of this world, she won't lose her related memories—only when she touches the core of a Kamen Rider can she recall what happened.

Firefly isn't worried about the DGP organizers and staff targeting her either. Through the system's introduction, even in this world shrouded by the Creation Goddess's power, they can't detect her.

Her existence is like an undetectable glitch, a bug in the game—as long as she doesn't actively expose herself to the DGP organizers, they'll never find her.

This is undoubtedly a very convenient thing!

Putting those thoughts aside, Firefly began to check her previous gains—this was the key.

[(Kill) 5,480 Cleaner Pawn-level Jyamato, gained 2,740 Points.]
[(Achievement) Defeated Kamen Rider Buffa once, (based on current strength) gained 50 Points.]
[(Achievement) Defeated Kamen Rider Geats once, (based on current strength) gained 80 Points.]
[(Kill) Destroyed the Destruction Jyamato Fortress, gained 1,000 Points.]
[(Achievement) Changed the plot, prevented the birth of a Desire God once, gained 1,000 Points.]
[Total: 4,870 Points]

"..."

4,870 Points. The reward was quite generous.

Whether used to exchange for Power of Destiny or for gacha, it was substantial. Points weren't as hard to come by as she'd imagined—this was just the harvest from one DGP Grand Prix.

And from the system's prompts, many achievements could be obtained repeatedly: preventing the birth of a Desire God, defeating Kamen Riders, killing Jyamato...

Right now, the Kamen Riders and Jyamato were still in the early stages, with limited strength. What about later—King Jyamato, Jyamato God? What about Kamen Rider Geats Nine-Tails, Golden Fox, Black Fox?

Surely that would mean even richer Points!

Not to mention the rewards, just the thought of facing opponents like that made Firefly eager.

The feeling of transforming into Sam and fighting was way too satisfying!

No one could resist the joy of transformation, but this time wasn't her most thrilling yet—Sam's true strength hadn't even been brought out.

It was a completely held-back fight!

After all, she hadn't even entered Secondary Burn, let alone Molten Core Engine, Supernova Overload, or other modes.

Otherwise, she'd definitely have to say, "I will ignite the sea!"

But the current Kamen Riders and Jyamato simply couldn't make her pull out those moves—at the very least, she'd need to wait for the Kamen Riders' final forms and King-level Jyamato, Jyamato Apostles, or Jyamato God.

Not to mention anything else, this world's Jyamato Power and Creation Power were still worth looking forward to.

"Since getting Points isn't as hard as I thought, why not try my luck?"

Although exchanging all the Points for Power of Destiny was the safest option, given the current situation, Sam's power was enough to handle things.

On the other hand, Points gacha made her, a player who'd been led astray by Mihoyo's habits, a little itchy.

What if she actually hit the jackpot?

Just a test run—if it didn't work, she'd stop and exchange everything for Power of Destiny.

Unable to resist, the girl tapped into the gacha interface, invested 1,600 Points, and did her first ten-pull.

And then... she actually hit the jackpot!

Gold Legendary!

"???"

Staring at the interface blazing with golden light, the girl was completely stunned. Was it really this easy to get a hit?

Her mood instantly soared, and she began checking what she'd pulled.

[(Blue) Trash Can Rummaged by Trailblazer]
[(Blue) March 7th's Jewelry]
[(Blue) Himeko's Coffee]
[(Blue) Fu Xuan's Worn Socks]
[(Blue) One of Silver Wolf's Game Accounts]
[(Blue) Aventurine's Glove]
[(Gold) Blessing of Abundance]
[(Blue) Useless Small Oddity]
[(Blue) 3-Star Light Cone]
...

Seeing what she'd pulled, the girl's expression turned extremely complicated. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

Chapter 13: Herta Puppet

Nine blue cards, only one gold card.

Actually, that was still pretty good luck—getting a gold was already decent.

But why were all these items so strange? Almost all of them were things belonging to characters from Star Rail.

Either personal belongings or something related to them.

Trash can, coffee, gloves, game account...

What was she supposed to do with these?

Even after taking them out one by one, Firefly noticed they still carried warmth, and Himeko's coffee seemed freshly brewed.

"Good grief, System, you didn't just strip these off them or steal them, did you?"

Staring at these "spoils," especially the lingering warmth on Fu Xuan's white stockings, Firefly seriously suspected the System had just yanked them off her.

There was even a faint scent—whether it was Fu Xuan's sweat or some body wash fragrance.

Not unpleasant, though.

[How could that be, ahem... how could I do something so immoral! Snatching things off people.]

Despite the reply, Firefly felt its tone was full of guilt.

But she didn't dwell on it; those were secondary. The key was her golden legendary.

Judging by the name, though, it didn't seem very friendly.

[Blessing of Abundance]

Use/Description: After using the Blessing of Abundance, Yaoshi's phantom will descend upon a designated planet, bestowing a world-covering blessing.

Note: The Abundance Star God only grants blessings; consequences are your own!

"Uh..."

It sounded impressive—blessing an entire planet—but also seemed incredibly useless.

Consequences your own?!

What did that mean? All care, no responsibility!

As everyone knew, Yaoshi's blessing was both a gift and a curse.

So even a gold wasn't necessarily useful. But looking at her remaining points, the girl decided to keep trying. The gold rate was so high; maybe the next one would be a game-changer.

"One more."

Another ten-pull, but this time it was purple haze, no gold. Sure enough, consecutive golds were still too rare.

[(Blue) Sparkle's Mask]

[(Blue) Robin's Earring]

[(Blue) Jing Yuan's Collected Oddity]

[(Blue) Fu Xuan's Worn White Stockings]

[(Blue) Silver Wolf's Game Account]

[(Purple) Herta Puppet]

"?"

Firefly was furious.

Why was it all this stuff again!

Where were the promised Light Cones and Relics?

And were Fu Xuan's white stockings and Silver Wolf's game account duplicates? Or had Fu Xuan just changed into a fresh pair and the System swiped them again?

And how many game accounts did Silver Wolf have?

If she kept pulling, would the System steal all her accounts?

The guaranteed purple item from the ten-pull was a Herta Puppet.

Ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous.

Speaking of which, with this Herta Puppet, could the real Herta remotely control it across worlds?

If so, that would be incredible.

As a Emanator of the Aeon of Intellect, member #83 of the Genius Society, and a brilliant scientist of unmatched wisdom, having her around would make many things much simpler.

Future People, Creation Goddess statues.

They'd all be nothing but experimental data for Herta!

Even if she couldn't unleash the power of an Emanator, as the smartest person on Azure Star, she could still provide immense logistical support.

But clearly, the girl was overthinking it!

After finding an empty spot and taking out the Herta Puppet, she immediately learned that Herta herself couldn't manifest through it.

"Then what use are you?"

Looking at the lifelike Herta Puppet before her, Firefly's tone carried a hint of disappointment upon learning she couldn't contact the original.

Could she only be used as an ornament?

Sure, she was quite cute, and placing her nearby as a decorative vase would be adorable too, but that hardly counted as a purple-quality reward, did it?

A ten-pull guaranteed one purple item, and if it was useless, that would be too disappointing.

No, wait!

It wasn't completely unusable.

"I possess basic artificial intelligence. You can instruct me to complete some fundamental tasks. Additionally, I can assist you in combat."

The Herta Puppet replied to Firefly with a blank expression, seeming intelligent, yet somehow not quite.

"Combat? Are you strong?"

Examining the puppet before her, Firefly couldn't see any real power in her—just a simple Herta figurine.

With the puppet's distinctive joints, she was nothing more than a one-to-one replica BJD doll.

"No. I only have the most basic self-defense mechanisms set by Lady Herta, capable of handling only enemies of very limited strength."

"I see."

Firefly had her give it a try and found it was indeed quite average—barely enough to face a Jyamato Fortress head-on, easily dismantling a city on her own without issue.
