Are you and your system going to counter me like this? Is there any need to jump out and slap me in the face?
Chu Chen looked up slightly, and Elf's face immediately came into view. Her face seemed to say, "Is this what you meant by being too tired to even come for dinner?" making Chu Chen subconsciously turn his face away.
Fate quickly stood up and saw Alicia holding Precia's hand as she hurried over.
Upon seeing Fate, Precia couldn't help but show a complex expression.
Chapter 45: This is Mother's Order... (Bonus Chapter)
"Thank you so much for everything concerning Alicia!"
As Alicia's mother, Precia thanked Chu Chen with utmost sincerity.
Regardless of Chu Chen's intentions in saving Alicia, Alicia had indeed been saved by him. For this reason alone, Precia felt it necessary to thank Chu Chen... or so she thought.
For a mother, her child is always the most important... especially for someone like Precia...
As for Fate, she might not have been a perfect mother, but she was definitely a very good mother to Alicia. Although she hadn't spent much time with her child, her love for Alicia was unquestionable.
Hearing this, Chu Chen merely shrugged. He glanced at Alicia, who was getting close to Fate, and at Fate, who seemed a little unaccustomed to Alicia's closeness, a smile involuntarily appearing on his face.
For a transmigrator who has arrived in the anime world, what could be considered a lifelong wish?
Besides becoming stronger, it's probably rewriting the tragedies they couldn't stand to read before transmigrating!
Chu Chen wouldn't be staying in this world for too long anyway. The Nanoha world was definitely not suitable for Chu Chen to stay in for an extended period.
For Chu Chen, staying in worlds with inherently powerful systems was undoubtedly the most suitable.
The Nasuverse is one such world. The Nanoha world is also strong, but the Nasuverse has far too many troublesome matters compared to this world.
It's not that Chu Chen likes trouble, but in the Nanoha world, aside from a few main plotlines, there's basically nothing else to get involved in. And in reality, the upper and lower limits of the Nanoha world are truly vast.
Look at the TSAB, for instance. The only ones they can really send out are Nanoha and a few others. Nanoha's students are also somewhat capable, but they are nothing compared to Nanoha and the others...
Although the Nasuverse has many troublesome affairs, it also means that the Nasuverse's depth is much greater than the Nanoha world's.
Getting involved in these matters would bring Chu Chen considerable gains...
Therefore, Chu Chen had no intention of staying in the Nanoha world for long, which is why he was too lazy to follow the main storyline.
"You don't need to thank me for Alicia. It was actually just Alicia's good luck... All I did was bring her back to you. If you really want to thank me, then give her the compensation you owe Fate..."
At the same time, Chu Chen waved his right hand slightly, and a test tube containing an unknown blue liquid appeared in his hand.
Under Precia's confused gaze, Chu Chen handed the test tube to Precia.
"This contains a healing elixir. After drinking this, your condition will also improve! Remember, don't use magic recently, otherwise your already not-so-good body will continue to deteriorate!"
Chu Chen didn't want Alicia to lose her mother shortly after reuniting with her, as it would break her heart.
For Chu Chen, who possessed Item Creation, this healing elixir was actually quite easy to make.
A ripple of emotion couldn't help but appear in Precia's calm eyes.
Don't misunderstand, this was just increased gratitude towards Chu Chen... After all, Chu Chen had saved her the trouble of finding a way to recover her health, and she didn't want the time she could spend with Alicia to become shorter and shorter.
"Thank you very much..." Precia bowed to Chu Chen again.
Alicia, meanwhile, pulled Fate over, her face beaming with youthful energy.
"Brother Chu Chen also made a healing elixir for Mom's body, so you must have worked hard... Brother Chu Chen, why don't you stay here a little longer? Fate and I can take you around to play... There must be many fun places in Nanoha-neechan's world! Mom, you come too... It's rare that our family can go out and play together!"
Seeing Alicia's eagerness to have her family go out and play together, Chu Chen found it amusing.
"You're not even familiar with Uminari City yourself, and you want to take me around? Get familiar with Uminari City first!"
"Hmph... What do you mean! If you can't, you can ask Nanoha-neechan to be our guide! I think Nanoha-neechan really wants to be friends with Fate-imouto, so you can let Fate-imouto and Nanoha-neechan chat properly..."
Alicia's mention of Nanoha reminded Fate of the girl who had been trying to talk to her.
Is that girl's name Nanoha? The thought couldn't help but surface in Fate's mind.
"By the way, Mr. Chu Chen, please take this..."
Precia said as she took out all the Seeds of the Holy Stone that Fate had on her phone up to that point.
However, for Chu Chen, only one Seed of the Holy Stone was enough. If he took too many of these Seeds of the Holy Stone and they accidentally went berserk, causing major problems in the Magical Girl Illya world, Chu Chen would have nowhere to cry.
Moreover, Chu Chen had no particular need for this Seed of the Holy Stone. At most, he could study the power within it. Perhaps this wish-granting power could be of some help to Ai-chan and the others, or even himself.
"Give the Seed of the Holy Stone to Fate and have her give it to that child named Nanoha..."
Saying this, Chu Chen's gaze fell upon Fate before him, and he slightly bent down, looking directly at her.
"That child has been calling your name, never giving up. Now that you no longer need the Seed of the Holy Stone, take it and respond to her with all your might... She's a very good friend..."
As he said this, Chu Chen placed a special mark on Fate.
Chu Chen would also place marks on Nanoha and Yaegashi Hayate next.
The existence of these marks would allow Chu Chen to implant the system he successfully created into them at any time.
The future three giants of the TSAB, of course, not one of them could be left out...
As long as he made acquaintance with the three giants of the TSAB, he could basically leave this world.
And judging by the time, Illya should be about to deal with Berserker by now.
After hearing this, Fate was first stunned for a moment, and a trace of hesitation appeared on her face.
No matter what, she had treated that child that way. Could she really make friends with that child now?
She had injured the child directly upon their first meeting, and it was even worse the second time. If she hadn't been kind-hearted, she could have taken Nanoha's life at that moment...
Under these circumstances, could she really become friends with the other party?
Sensing Fate's hesitation, Precia walked behind her and placed her hands on Fate's shoulders.
"Fate, go and see that child. You need to say what you want to say clearly... That's Mom's order."
Upon hearing this, Fate nodded heavily.
PS2: Author here, I've slightly changed the conditions for bonus updates. The maximum number of bonus chapters is four. Anyone who follows this book knows that the guaranteed update is three chapters, but I usually update five chapters a day. So, I'll mention this here as well: the daily update limit for this book is seven chapters. If I were to update eight chapters, my hands would truly break. I also can't touch the draft chapters; those are reserved for a massive update when the book goes on sale. Therefore, I will adjust the guaranteed update based on the situation. For example, if there are two bonus chapters today, I'll update five chapters in total, adding the two bonus ones. If there are four bonus chapters today, the guaranteed update will be three chapters, with four bonus chapters, and the limit is seven chapters.
Chapter 46: My Illya has finally grown up...
Administrator: "Illya, Miyu, how is the Assassin situation?"
Chu Chen was currently lying in the Garden of Time. Calculating the time, it was about when Illya and Miyu were supposed to be dealing with the Assassin. Although in the original story, Illya's magic went out of control while dealing with the Assassin, Chu Chen believed Illya wouldn't have any problems now. Illya now was much stronger than the Illya from the original story.
Moreover, before leaving, Chu Chen had reminded Illya and the others to be cautious when dealing with Servants like the Assassin who liked to ambush. It would be best to fly into the air and use a carpet-bombing attack, as the Assassins wouldn't be able to dodge it.
And when dealing with Berserker, they absolutely had to call him, and he could immediately go to help.
Of course, even though he was relieved, Chu Chen still planned to ask. He was afraid the two children might be pushing themselves too hard.
Both Miyu and Illya had a tendency to be stubborn.
So, before going to sleep, Chu Chen still planned to ask these two children.
Miyu Emiya: "The Assassin was resolved smoothly... Illya and I used scattershot attacks on the surrounding forest, and those Assassins couldn't dodge at all. Moreover, although there were dozens of Assassins, their individual combat power was inferior to Rin and Luvia when they weren't using the Kaleidoscope Staff..."
Miyu was currently helping Luvia with housework at Luvia's house, and after finishing, she would go to sleep.
After all, during the time Chu Chen was away, he had asked Luvia to take care of Miyu.
And Luvia naturally treated Miyu like a maid. Yes! It was definitely not because Miyu's maid outfit that day had greatly satisfied Luvia, which was why she made Miyu her household maid!
Ai Haibara: "Only when facing the Administrator does Miyu talk this much..."
They all knew that Chu Chen was the Administrator, and also Illya's teacher at school, and Miyu's current guardian.
To Miyu, Chu Chen was family. When dealing with family, it was natural for Miyu to be so reserved.
Ilyasviel: "Although I was a little panicked at the beginning when dealing with the Assassin, a small knife suddenly flew in front of me and startled me... I'm only now realizing that collecting cards isn't that simple!"
Illya couldn't help but give a wry smile, her expression still a little grim when she thought about that time.
Unlike Miyu, Tohsaka Rin, and Luvia, Illya ultimately came from an ordinary family. Although the Einzberns were indeed a prestigious mage family, Illya had at least not been exposed to the hidden world before the Class Card incident.
For a ten-year-old child, when she clearly knew that the mission might be fatal, she would still feel fear.
After all, no matter what, Illya didn't have an unspeakable and extraordinary past like Miyu. When facing death directly, how could she not feel fear?
Ai Haibara: "..."
Yukino Yukinoshita: "..."
Busujima Saeko: "..."
Yukino might have only slightly grasped Illya's fear, while Ai and Saeko, who had already been exposed to darkness, naturally understood what Illya was talking about... At this moment, they also didn't know how to comfort Illya.
Administrator: "Illya, I was there for all the previous battles, so I still had the ability to protect you. But now I'm in another world. You must remember that collecting Class Cards comes with danger. For example, the first time Miyu fought Rider, if it weren't for you, that Mystic Eye attack could have put Miyu in a life-threatening crisis. I think Illya, you must think carefully from now on. If you can't overcome that fear, Illya, you should... quit!"
Ilyasviel: "..."
Miyu Emiya: "Illya... you..."
Miyu was about to say something harsh to make Illya retreat, and to bear everything alone, but—
Ilyasviel: "I won't quit! I can't let Miyu bear all of this alone just because I'm scared! Miyu is my friend! I absolutely cannot stand by and let my friend face danger while I stay behind!"
Miyu Emiya: "Illya..."
Miyu's expression was complicated, but it was more joy than anything else.
Ai Haibara: "The weather is really nice today..."
Yukino Yukinoshita: "It is..."
Busujima Saeko: "It makes one feel like slaughtering all the zombies outside..."
Ai Haibara: "..."
Yukino Yukinoshita: "..."
Ai and Yukino were speechless. We are very pleased with Illya's actions here, but you're talking about feeling motivated to slaughter zombies, which is really ruining the mood...
Administrator: "(* ̄︶ ̄)"
This child Illya has finally grown up, Chu Chen exclaimed with a motherly sigh.
The next moment, Chu Chen silently focused his attention on his golden finger.
He discovered that after handing over the selection system to Alicia, his manufacturing system had undergone some new changes.
Previously, the system could only manufacture one item at a time. Now, Chu Chen could manufacture multiple systems at once.
The single manufacturing queue had expanded from one to five...
However, the number of selection systems had to be less than the check-in systems. This meant that in a single manufacturing queue, there had to be fewer advanced systems than basic ones. For example, a maximum of two selection systems could be chosen at once, and three check-in systems...
This also relieved Chu Chen. The more systems he had, the greater the increase in his strength.
At first, Chu Chen had thought that manufacturing systems one by one was far too inefficient.
Now that he could manufacture five at once, it was incredibly satisfying...
Silently, Chu Chen placed two selection systems and three check-in systems into the queue.
Once the five selection systems were successfully manufactured, Chu Chen could directly start manufacturing the next system.
Furthermore, according to the panel, there would be some interesting new features when starting the manufacturing of the next system. It seemed the cheat he obtained was actually a system for manufacturing systems...
Incidentally, after opening the systems for Haibara Ai and the others, Chu Chen discovered a new function.
Since Chu Chen hadn't actively assigned them any tasks recently, he was slightly surprised to see this new function. He was certain this function hadn't been added when he manufactured them.
On one hand, this function seemed to be designed to allow the functions of these lower-tier systems to catch up to the advanced systems.
On the other hand, it seemed to be for completing some new functions.
Therefore, both the check-in system and the selection system could currently be upgraded, though not to the same extent.
If we were to compare it to downloading data, the selection system would only need to download 100MB of data, while the check-in system would require 1GB.
"System upgrade... that sounds quite interesting. I can try it out on Haibara Ai and the others."
Silently, Chu Chen pressed the upgrade button on the system interfaces for Haibara Ai and the others.
[Ding·System upgrade has begun. The upgrade will be completed in 24 hours. This 24-hour upgrade will not affect tasks, so the host need not worry...]
