Why were both you and your system pushing back against me? Did you have to jump out like this just to slap me in the face?

Chu Chen raised his head slightly, and Arf's face immediately entered his view. Her face seemed to be saying, "So this is what you meant by being so sick of each other that you wouldn't even come over for dinner?" Chu Chen instinctively turned his face away.

Fate hurriedly stood up just as Alicia, holding Precia's hand, quickly walked over.

When Precia saw Fate, a complicated expression surfaced on her face as well.

This Is Mom's Order... (Bonus Chapter)

"Thank you so much for what you did for Alicia!"

As Alicia's mother, Precia solemnly thanked Chu Chen.

No matter why Chu Chen had saved Alicia, he had indeed brought Alicia back to life. That alone made Precia feel that she had to thank him... or at least, that was what Precia believed.

To a mother, her child would always be the most important thing... especially for someone like Precia...

To Fate, perhaps Precia had not been a qualified mother. But to Alicia, she was undoubtedly an excellent one. Even though she had not spent much time with her child, there was no questioning her love for Alicia.

Hearing that, Chu Chen merely shrugged. His gaze swept over Alicia, who was affectionately clinging to Fate, and Fate, who was somewhat unused to Alicia's closeness. A smile appeared on his face.

For a transmigrator who had come to the world of anime, what could truly be considered a lifelong wish?

Other than becoming stronger, it was probably rewriting those tragedies they could not bear to watch before transmigrating!

Chu Chen would not be staying in this world for too long anyway. The Nanoha World was absolutely unsuitable for him to remain in for long.

For Chu Chen, staying in worlds with inherently high power levels was undoubtedly the best choice.

The Moon World was one such place. The Nanoha World was powerful too, but the Moon World had far more troublesome matters than this world.

It was not that Chu Chen liked trouble. Rather, aside from a few main storylines, there was basically nothing in the Nanoha World that he could get involved in. Besides, the gap between its upper and lower limits was truly enormous.

Look at the TSAB. The only people they could really send out were basically Nanoha and the others. Nanoha's students were decent too, but compared with Nanoha and her group, they were truly nothing remarkable...

Although the Moon World had many more troublesome matters, that also meant its waters ran far deeper than those of the Nanoha World.

Getting involved in those matters would also bring Chu Chen quite a few gains...

So Chu Chen had no intention of staying in the Nanoha World for long. That was why he could not be bothered to follow the main storyline.

"You don't need to thank me for Alicia. In truth, Alicia was simply lucky... The only thing I did was bring her back to your side. If you truly want to thank me, then make up for what you owe Fate..."

As he spoke, Chu Chen lightly waved his right hand. A test tube containing an unknown blue liquid appeared in his hand.

Under Precia's puzzled gaze, Chu Chen handed the test tube to her.

"This contains medicinal elixir for healing. After drinking it, your condition will improve somewhat as well! Remember, don't use magic lately. Otherwise, your already poor health will continue to worsen!"

Her body was already in bad shape, yet she kept casually using magic. Chu Chen did not want Alicia to finally reunite with her mother only to inexplicably lose her again shortly afterward. Alicia would be heartbroken then.

For Chu Chen, who possessed Item Creation, making a healing elixir like this was actually very easy.

A slight ripple could not help appearing in Precia's calm eyes.

Don't think too much about it. She was simply even more grateful to Chu Chen... No matter what, Chu Chen had saved her the trouble of finding a way to restore her health. She did not want the time she could spend with Alicia to grow shorter and shorter either.

"Thank you very much..." Precia bowed to Chu Chen once again.

Alicia pulled Fate over, her face brimming with an energetic smile.

"Brother Chu Chen even made Mom a healing elixir to restore her body. That must have been really hard... Why don't you stay here a little longer, Brother Chu Chen? Fate and I can take you around to have fun... There must be lots of fun places in Sister Nanoha's world! Mom, you should come too... Our family can finally go out and have fun together!"

Seeing how much Alicia wanted to drag the whole family out sightseeing, Chu Chen found it rather amusing.

"You're completely unfamiliar with Uminari City yourself, yet you want to take me around? Get familiar with Uminari City first before talking about that!"

"Ugh... What's that supposed to mean! If I can't do it, we can ask Sister Nanoha to be our guide! I think Sister Nanoha really wants to be friends with little sister Fate. It'd be the perfect chance for little sister Fate and Sister Nanoha to have a proper talk..."

At the mention of Nanoha, Fate could not help thinking of that girl who had always wanted to talk to her.

So that girl's name was Nanoha? That thought surfaced in Fate's mind.

"By the way, Mr. Chu Chen, please take this..."

As Precia spoke, she took out all the Seeds of the Holy Stone Fate had collected so far.

However, Chu Chen only needed one Seed of the Holy Stone. If he took too many and they accidentally went berserk, causing serious problems in the Magical Girl Illya world, he would not even have anywhere to cry about it.

Besides, Chu Chen did not particularly need the Seed of the Holy Stone. At most, he wanted to study the power within it. Perhaps this wish-granting power could be helpful to Ai, the others, or even himself.

"Give the Seeds of the Holy Stone to Fate. Let Fate bring them to that child called Nanoha..."

As he said this, Chu Chen looked at Fate before him. Then he bent down slightly and looked directly into her eyes.

"That child has been calling your name all this time and never gave up. Now that you no longer need the Seeds of the Holy Stone, take them and respond to her with everything you have... She'll be a very good friend."

As he spoke, Chu Chen placed a special mark on Fate.

Next, Chu Chen would also place marks on Nanoha and Yagami Hayate.

The existence of this mark would allow Chu Chen to implant the systems he successfully created into them at any time.

The future Big Three of the TSAB—of course, he could not leave out a single one...

Once he had gotten to know the Big Three of the TSAB, he could basically leave this world.

And judging by the time, Illya's side should be about ready to deal with Berserker.

Hearing that, Fate froze for a moment, hesitation appearing on her face.

No matter what, she had treated that child that way. Could she really become friends with her now?

She had injured her the first time they met, and the second time had been even worse. If she had not been kind by nature, she could have directly taken Nanoha's life then...

Under such circumstances, could she really become friends with the other girl?

Seeing Fate's hesitation, Precia walked behind her and placed both hands on her shoulders.

"Fate, go see that child. You need to make what you want to say clear... This is Mom's order."

Only then did Fate nod heavily.

PS2: I made a slight adjustment to the bonus chapter conditions. The maximum number of bonus chapters is four. Everyone reading this book knows that although the guaranteed update count is said to be three chapters, I directly post five every day. So let me clarify this as well: the maximum daily update count for this book is seven chapters. If it reaches eight, my hands really are going to break. I also can't touch the stockpile; it's being saved for a massive release after the book goes premium. So I'll adjust the guaranteed count depending on the situation. For example, if there are two bonus chapters today, I'll post five chapters directly, then add two more afterward. If there are four bonus chapters today, then it'll be three guaranteed chapters plus four bonus chapters, making the seven-chapter limit...

My Illya Has Finally Grown Up...

Administrator: "Illya, Miyu, how did dealing with Assassin go?"

Chu Chen was currently lying in the Time Garden. After calculating the time, it was about when Illya and Miyu would be dealing with Assassin. Although Illya's magical power had gone berserk when she dealt with Assassin in the original story, Chu Chen believed Illya would not have any problems now. The current Illya was much stronger than the original one.

Before leaving, Chu Chen had also reminded Illya and the others to be cautious when dealing with Assassin Servants who liked sneak attacks. It would be best to fly into the air and launch an area-clearing attack. That way, those Assassins would have nowhere to hide.

And when dealing with Berserker, they absolutely had to call him. He could immediately go over and help then.

Of course, although he was reassured, Chu Chen still planned to ask. He was afraid these two children would try to act tough.

Both Miyu and Illya had somewhat stubborn personalities...

So before going to sleep, Chu Chen still planned to ask the two girls.

Miyu: "Assassin was dealt with smoothly... Illya and I used scattershot attacks on the surrounding forest. Those Assassins had no way to dodge, and although there were several dozen of them, their individual combat ability was not even as good as Rin and Luvia without using the Kaleidoscope Staff..."

Miyu was currently helping Luvia with housework at Luvia's home, and she would go to sleep after finishing.

After all, while Chu Chen was away from home, he had asked Luvia to look after Miyu.

And naturally, Luvia treated Miyu like a maid. Yes! It was absolutely not because Miyu's maid outfit that day had also satisfied Luvia, so she had Miyu become a maid in her house!

Haibara Ai: "Only when she's facing the Administrator does Miyu talk this much..."

They now all knew that Chu Chen was the Administrator, as well as Illya's schoolteacher and Miyu's current guardian.

To Miyu, Chu Chen was family. Naturally, she would not be so cold toward her own family.

Ilyasviel: "Although I panicked a little when we first started fighting Assassin. A dagger suddenly flew right in front of me and scared me... I only realized now that collecting cards isn't such a simple matter!"

Illya could not help giving a bitter smile. Even thinking about what happened then made her face look somewhat pale.

Unlike Miyu, Tohsaka Rin, and Luvia, Illya had ultimately grown up in an ordinary family. Although the Einzberns were indeed a Magical Noble Family, Illya had not come into contact with matters of the hidden world before the Class Card incident.

A ten-year-old child, after clearly knowing that this mission could get her killed, would still feel fear.

After all, unlike Miyu, Illya did not have an unspeakable and extraordinary past. When facing death directly, how could she possibly not be afraid?

Haibara Ai: "..."

Yukino Yukinoshita: "..."

Busujima Saeko: "..."

Yukino may have only vaguely realized Illya's fear, but Ai and Saeko, who had both been exposed to darkness, naturally understood what Illya meant... At that moment, they did not know how to comfort Illya either.

Administrator: "Illya, I was present for your previous battles, so I had the ability to protect you to some extent. But now I'm in another world. You must remember that collecting Class Cards comes with danger. Take Miyu's first battle with Rider as an example. Without you, that Mystic Eye attack could have directly placed Miyu in mortal danger. I think you need to think this through carefully, Illya. If you can't overcome that fear, then you should... withdraw!"

Ilyasviel: "..."

Miyu: "Illya... you..."

Miyu had been about to say something harsh to make Illya back down, intending to bear all of this by herself, but—

Ilyasviel: "I won't withdraw! I can't let Miyu bear all of this alone just because I'm scared! Miyu is my friend! I absolutely can't let my friend face danger while I quietly stay behind by myself!"

Miyu: "Illya..."

Miyu's expression was complicated, but there was even more joy in it.

Haibara Ai: "The weather is really nice today..."

Yukino Yukinoshita: "Yes..."

Busujima Saeko: "It gives me the motivation to slaughter all the zombies outside..."

Haibara Ai: "..."

Yukino Yukinoshita: "..."

Ai and Yukino were instantly rendered speechless. The two of them were feeling deeply relieved by Illya's actions, yet Saeko suddenly talked about feeling motivated to slaughter zombies. Was that not far too destructive to the atmosphere...?

Administrator: "(* ̄︶ ̄)"

Illya had finally grown up... Chu Chen let out a sigh like an old mother.

The next moment, Chu Chen silently turned his attention to his cheat ability.

He discovered that after giving the Selection System to Alicia, some new changes had appeared in the system creation aspect of his ability.

Previously, he could only create one system at a time. Now, Chu Chen could create multiple systems at once.

The original single production slot had become five...

However, the number of Selection Systems had to be lower than that of Check-in Systems. In other words, within one production queue, there had to be fewer high-level systems than low-level systems. At most, he could create two Selection Systems and three Check-in Systems at once...

This made Chu Chen sigh in relief. The more systems there were now, the greater the boost to his strength would be.

At first, Chu Chen had thought that creating systems one by one was simply far too inefficient.

Now that he could create five at once, it felt absolutely amazing...

Silently, Chu Chen placed two Selection Systems and three Check-in Systems into the queue.

Once the five Selection Systems had been successfully created, Chu Chen could directly begin producing the next system.

Moreover, according to what the panel said, when he unlocked the next system, there would be some especially interesting things as well. Sure enough, the cheat ability I got is actually a system for creating systems...

By the way, after Chu Chen opened Ai and the others' systems, he discovered a new function.

Since Chu Chen had not proactively issued them any missions recently, he had been slightly stunned when he saw this new function. He could be certain that this function had not been added when he created the systems.

On one hand, this function seemed intended to allow the abilities of these low-level systems to catch up with those of high-level systems.

On the other hand, it seemed to supplement some new functions.

So both the Check-in System and Selection System could currently be upgraded, though the scale of their upgrades was not the same.

If compared to downloading data, the Selection System only needed to download 100 MB of data, while the Check-in System needed to download 1 GB.

"System upgrades... They seem pretty interesting. I can let Ai and the others try them."

Silently, Chu Chen pressed the word "Upgrade" on the system interfaces of Ai and the others.

Ding! The system has begun upgrading. This system will complete its upgrade after 24 hours. The 24-hour upgrade will not affect missions, so please do not worry, host...
