One minute later...

Haibara Ai: "..."

Yukino Yukinoshita: "..."

Busujima Saeko: "..."

Miyu: "..."

Ilyasviel: "..."

Ilyasviel: "!!!"

Ilyasviel: "Th-this, this, this, this, this... What the heck is going on?! They both clearly look like such cute Magical Girls, so what's with that overwhelming pressure and terrifying Magic Cannon?! Is this what a real Magical Girl is like? Have I been a fake Magical Girl all along?!"

After witnessing an attack she had never seen before, one that nearly shattered her understanding of the words "Magical Girl," Illya immediately fell into some strange state.

"Illya? What's wrong with you?" Ruby looked at Illya, who had suddenly crouched down and begun questioning her life, utterly confused.

Out of curiosity, Ruby slowly stepped closer and heard a faint stream of muttering.

Things like, "Fake, it's all fake," "Even I'm fake," and "I'm not a Magical Girl at all"...

Ruby: "???"

Title: Favor of the White Devil

Miyu: "Illya? Illya?"

Miyu kept calling Illya's name, but Illya never answered.

Haibara Ai: "Illya has completely broken down! She's beyond saving! Carry her away!"

Ilyasviel: "I'm not dead yet!!!!!"

Administrator: "Come to think of it, Illya, didn't I give you a Magical Girl Tape? Haven't you watched it?"

Chu Chen was puzzled. He had given Illya a tape of Magical Girl Nanoha.

If Illya had really watched it, she shouldn't have reacted like this...

Ilyasviel: "I haven't watched it yet. Mainly because I haven't had the time lately. I still have to collect Class Cards!"

That was true. Illya had been spending all her time collecting Class Cards recently. Where would she find time to watch anime?

Haibara Ai: "Was that the Administrator's world?"

Administrator: "No. She's the host of a newly created system made by the person who created your systems. She just hasn't entered the System Network yet. As the Administrator, I'm responsible for bringing these system hosts in. Her system type differs from yours, though, so I need to put in a little effort. I just happened to see some things taking place in her world."

Haibara Ai: "!!!"

Yukino Yukinoshita: "A different type of system? I'm interested now. What kind of system is it?"

Administrator: "A Selection System. It triggers choices whenever you encounter all sorts of situations, and you must choose from those options. The Selection System has a certain degree of coercion as well. If you can't make a choice, the system will automatically choose for you. And if you make a choice but don't do what the option says... the system will directly control your body!"

Haibara Ai: "...Good thing I didn't get a system like that!"

Ai felt somewhat fortunate. In an instant, she thought of all the inconveniences a Selection System would bring her.

For example, what if I don't want to choose any of the options it gives me? Wouldn't that be a huge headache?

The Check-in System, on the other hand, offered an extremely high degree of freedom. So far, there had been no mandatory check-in tasks.

And nothing happened if she failed to complete those tasks either... Ai secretly sighed in relief.

Yukino Yukinoshita: "Same here! That's practically a forced mission!"

Haibara Ai: "Wait! I just thought of something! Once people with Selection Systems join us, their choices should appear in front of us too, right? So wouldn't that turn into..."

Yukino Yukinoshita: "Us playing a galgame?"

Ilyasviel: "And then we'd help them decide..."

Administrator: "This System Network would directly turn into a galgame strategy group..."

Busujima Saeko: "What the Administrator said makes so much sense that I have no reply..."

Haibara Ai: "But... wouldn't that be fun? I've never played a real-life galgame before!"

Ai's eyes immediately lit up. She was already looking forward to those system holders joining.

Administrator: "Ai, you're in the wrong show. That line should have been said by Housenki Kaguya!"

Haibara Ai: "Who is Housenki Kaguya?"

Administrator: "A useless shut-in princess who's been holed up for over a thousand years! You might meet her someday..."

Based on the world levels where Chu Chen was currently deploying systems, it wasn't impossible for him to deploy one in Gensokyo.

Suddenly, another selection task was triggered on the Selection System's side, drawing Chu Chen's attention back.

Ding! A selection has begun! Selection time: 1 minute.

Faced with blonde enthusiast Magical Girl Nanoha's attempt to abduct you, you choose:

1. As this system's host, how can you be abducted so easily? Please strike a pose and say, "A mere blonde enthusiast Magical Girl thinks she can abduct me? Take this fist first!" Then give her a Friendship Face-Shattering Punch!

2. As this system's host, when meeting your idol, you should naturally act like a fan. Immediately step forward and say, "Big Sister White Devil, I'm your fan. Can you give me an autograph? As long as you give me one, when we get back, I'll let you play with my blonde hair!"

Selection rewards: Choice 1: Skill: Magic Cannon Fist (unleash the power of a Magic Cannon with your fist)

Choice 2: Title: Favor of the White Devil (when you encounter danger, shout "The White Devil is coming!" at the sky to directly summon Takamachi Nanoha before you!)

Alicia: "..."

She might have been young and innocent, but that didn't mean she was stupid!

What kind of character-destroying choices were these?! And what the heck was that reward for Choice 2? Although she didn't know what the White Devil joke meant, she knew it definitely wasn't a good nickname.

If enemies appeared and she shouted that at the sky, then the white-clad big sister before her learned she had somehow gained such a nickname—and that it had been deeply planted in her enemies' minds—she would probably blast Alicia with a Magic Cannon!

When Chu Chen saw the system choices and rewards, he burst out laughing as well.

Silently, he first turned his attention back. His mind had been immersed in the System Network just now, so he had no idea what had happened here. Once he saw the scene, Chu Chen immediately understood.

Nanoha had been defeated by Fate. Fate's Battle Axe Light Blade was still hanging at Nanoha's neck, while Raising Heart had been forced to hand the Seed of the Holy Stone over to Fate. Nanoha watched Fate leave in disappointment. Just as she was preparing to leave, she spotted Alicia.

That familiar face, along with the blonde hair that perfectly hit her weak spot, instantly made Nanoha's eyes light up.

Hair confirmed. This was the person I was going to abduct next!

Thus, with the idea of making a friend—haha—Nanoha immediately approached Alicia.

Just as she was about to say something, Alicia saw the choice in her mind...

She was speechless! Because she had no idea which option to choose!

The first choice—punching someone for no reason. Are you sure this big sister won't beat me up?

The second choice—letting her play with my blonde hair... Why does that feel so scary...

Ding. One minute has ended. This system will automatically make a choice for the host and take control of the host's body to execute it!

The host has successfully selected Choice 2! Executing option!

In an instant, Alicia felt as though someone had taken control of her body.

Then—

Alicia could only watch as her body struck a pose like that of a fangirl. Specks of light shone in her eyes, a faint blush rose on her cheeks, and there was even a trace of teasing in her expression.

"Big Sister White Devil, I'm your fan. Can you give me an autograph? As long as you give me one, when we get back, I'll let you play with my blonde hair!"

Takamachi Nanoha: "..."

Are you sure she's a child and not an elementary schooler with an adult soul?

Could an elementary schooler show such obvious adult-like maturity?

Takamachi Nanoha was deeply suspicious, and besides—

What the heck was this White Devil nonsense?! She absolutely would not admit to being any kind of devil!

However, after hearing that last sentence, Nanoha's expression shifted slightly. A brilliant smile appeared on her face, and then—

"Sure!"

Long live blonde hair!

PS2: There will be two more bonus chapters at ten and twelve. A boss tipped one thousand, and there were also two thousand flowers. I don't know if it was the same boss, but it'd be inexcusable not to post bonus chapters!

Illya Felt That Some Strange Switch Inside Her Had Been Flipped! (Bonus Chapter)

Today was a day off, and Illya had arranged to come over to Miyu's place to play.

Chu Chen had also invited Tohsaka Rin and Luvia over. The reason was simple.

Chu Chen planned to tell Tohsaka Rin and Luvia about Install.

He also intended to temporarily entrust Miyu to Luvia and have her take care of Miyu for a while.

As for why, the reason was simple. Chu Chen planned to make a trip to the Nanoha World to resolve Alicia's situation.

Letting Alicia reunite with Precia and resolving the Seed of the Holy Stone incident ahead of time would be a good thing.

It would also give Chu Chen relationship connections with both Nanoha and Fate. Getting to know the TSAB's Big Three in advance and building a good relationship with them certainly wouldn't hurt. If he needed help later, he might even be able to call them over.

"Teacher Chu Chen!" When he opened the door, Illya's lively, energetic figure immediately entered Chu Chen's sight.

"Yo! So this is your house? It looks pretty big... Damn rich people!"

For some reason, when Tohsaka Rin, who had come along, saw the decorations inside Chu Chen's home, a hint of displeasure appeared on her face.

The Tohsaka family had already declined. In the original story, Rin had even reached the point where she needed to do odd jobs at Luvia's place...

So now that she saw how wealthy Chu Chen's home was, Tohsaka Rin naturally felt a little displeased.

Right! This was the most natural envy, jealousy, and resentment that poor people felt toward rich people! Chu Chen didn't take it to heart at all.

"Classmate Tohsaka Rin, I'm your teacher, you know... Aren't you afraid I'll assign you some extra homework in private for saying that?" Chu Chen wore a faintly wicked smile, teasing glimmers flashing in his eyes.

That was right, Chu Chen genuinely didn't take it to heart. He simply thought that Tohsaka Rin was too idle normally, so assigning their adorable Classmate Tohsaka Rin some extra homework was a teacher's duty!

This definitely wasn't pettiness. It was merely concern for their adorable Classmate Tohsaka Rin's grades!

Tohsaka Rin was instantly speechless and couldn't help rolling her eyes. What a petty guy...

"Welcome, Illya, Ruby, Classmate Luvia, and Classmate Tohsaka Rin. Come in quickly!"

As he spoke, Chu Chen silently ushered the three girls and one wand inside. Then—

"Illya, Luvia, Rin..."

Suddenly, Miyu emerged slowly in a maid outfit, looking somewhat bashful, with a faint blush on her face.

Why was Miyu suddenly wearing a maid outfit? The reason was simple—

Miyu triggered an event check-in: Please wear a maid outfit to welcome the arriving Illya and the others.

Check-in time limit: 1 hour.

Check-in reward: Heroic Spirit Template · Caster · Miyu Edelfelt

There was no helping it. Since this mission had been triggered, Miyu could only silently put on the maid outfit.

Moreover, once she used this check-in reward, she would gain the combat power of that Heroic Spirit Template on top of her original strength.

After Miyu checked the power level of this Heroic Spirit Template, she was immediately tempted...

The moment Illya saw Miyu's maid outfit, her eyes lit up as though some switch inside her had been flipped!

The next moment, Illya's eyes erupted with the gleam of a hungry wolf, and she lunged at Miyu.

"Miyu, Miyu, Miyu, Miyu, Miyu, Miyu, Miyu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

With a fierce pounce, Illya directly pinned the red-faced and flustered Miyu to the ground, then began groping her all over!

Chu Chen had long known Illya would make that expression, so silently, at the very moment Illya entered and saw Miyu, he skillfully continued recording every moment of the scene between Illya and Miyu.
