Administrator: "Nope! I'm freeloading!"
Haibara Ai: "!!!"
Alicia Testarossa: "!!!"
Hayate Yagami: "!!!"
Yukino Yukinoshita: "The only one who can say they're freeloading with such conviction is probably just our System Network's Administrator!"
Takmachi Nanoha: "What did Chu Chen-niichan freeload this time? It's not even night yet... Doesn't Chu Chen-niichan only choose one of our daily rewards at night?"
Administrator: "Didn't Hayate trade two systems... What Loki and Ais used for the trade has already reached me..."
Haibara Ai: "Hiss—Terrifying! Our Administrator-san has really forged a brand new path of freeloading!!"
Illyasviel: "Hayate-neechan, what did the two new system hosts exchange for the systems?"
Hayate Yagami: "It was Loki's two divine powers. Ais originally planned to exchange her weapon, the Sword of Despair, but Loki stepped forward and said she'd use her divine power instead. So Loki paid for Ais. It seems Loki isn't interested in her own strength; she only cares about whether things are interesting..."
Hayate felt speechless about this. Perhaps for these gods who had lived for an unknown amount of time, having experienced everything, they were no longer as interested in their own strength.
Administrator: "These two divine powers are so good! I'm now extremely interested in the powers of these gods. Just Loki's two divine powers alone have allowed all my powers to break through their original limits... @All Members, remember to increase the price when selling systems in the future, so I can freeload more things!"
Haibara Ai: "Tsk tsk tsk..."
Yukino Yukinoshita: "Tsk tsk tsk... N..."
Illyasviel: "Tsk tsk tsk..."
Administrator: "Break formation! Speak your minds directly, no need to be passive-aggressive!"
Haibara Ai: "Administrator, I've never seen anyone as shameless as you!"
Administrator: "Thanks for the compliment!"
Chu Chen declared that working hard was impossible in this lifetime! All he could do now was to live day by day by freeloading!
PS2: The ten-chapter update situation is two chapters at 8 AM, sometimes two more at 9 AM after I wake up, then two more at 10 AM, one at 12 PM, one at 2 PM, and so on, with updates every two hours. This way, the novel's updates can basically fill the entire day. After the ten chapters are finished, I will resume updating five chapters a day. There won't be extra updates for the five-chapter situation because I will be saving manuscript drafts, and once I accumulate ten chapters, I will release another ten chapters.
Chapter 72: Meeting of the Four Demon Kings Regarding the Otherworlder (Seeking Subscription)
"Serafleur, have there been any abnormal situations with that person who claims to be from another world these past few days?"
Within the Demon King's territory, in one of the luxurious buildings, all four Demon Kings had gathered.
Sazex Lucifer!
Achuca Beelzebub!
Serafleur Leviathan!
Falubium Asmodeus!
If it were just the Underworld welcoming three strangers, it wouldn't warrant such a grand gathering.
However, Chu Chen and the others were unusual. As people from other worlds, this was enough reason for the four Demon Kings to mobilize.
The combat power of Nanoha and Fate could at most reach the Demon King level, but that Demon King-level combat power could only be unleashed once. Chu Chen's strength, however, was something Sazex couldn't see through, and the magical power he felt made him tremble.
Furthermore, Sazex was more worried about the strength behind Chu Chen and the situation in the other worlds.
Regardless, they knew nothing about the state of the other worlds and were unaware of Chu Chen's intentions. Therefore...
Sazex felt it was necessary to be vigilant. After all, he was the Demon King of the Underworld...
Thus, Sazex had summoned all the other Demon Kings and briefed them on Chu Chen's situation.
Serafleur had been monitoring Chu Chen, Nanoha, and Fate all along.
About five days had passed since Sazex last saw Chu Chen. He felt it was time to ask Serafleur about Chu Chen. Based on Serafleur's report, he would try to adjust his attitude towards Chu Chen.
While vigilance was necessary, being overly vigilant was a bit much... Sazex believed this.
And after all, he strongly agreed with Chu Chen's words: who would invade with children?
He could tell that Nanoha and Fate were indeed ordinary children, aside from their talent. In terms of their disposition, he could see that these two children were still very immature.
"There haven't been any other unusual signs. They spend their days accompanying Nanoha and Fate. Except for the initial invitation to other worlds extended to my Asuna-chan, there haven't been any other situations... On the contrary, Nanoha and Fate have been coming to me for training every day!"
As she said this, Serafleur's face showed a look of deep satisfaction.
Although Nanoha and Fate had not agreed to become her familiars, stating they only wanted to be human.
These past few days, she had managed to learn all of Nanoha and Fate's techniques.
And what made Serafleur happiest was the one-time Magical Girl transformation card she obtained from Chu Chen.
Being able to transform into a Magical Girl had already made Serafleur extremely happy.
"To other worlds? Does that person have the freedom to travel between different otherworlds?"
Achuca's face was full of curiosity. As a research fanatic, if he could develop a teleportation array to travel to various otherworlds, he definitely would. It was just that traveling to otherworlds required not only technical conditions but also strength.
Although he and Sazex were Transcendents, being a Transcendent didn't mean they could do anything.
The Great Red outside the world alone was something they were powerless against.
Upon hearing this, Serafleur nodded heavily.
"That's right, from the sound of his tone, he can travel between worlds. I've also gathered quite a bit of information from Nanoha and Fate. Chu Chen isn't from their world, and they're not too sure which world he's from either. All they know is that Chu Chen has been traveling between worlds alone, with a bit of a traveler's vibe, getting stronger by collecting mysteries from different worlds..."
This information that Nanoha and Fate shared was what Chu Chen had revealed within his allowed limits.
And it wasn't wrong; Chu Chen had indeed been traveling between worlds alone.
Magical Girl Illya → Magical Girl Nanoha → High School DxD...
It really did have a traveler's feel to it. Getting stronger was Chu Chen's greatest wish, and collecting the mysteries of different worlds was indeed something Chu Chen had been doing. By utilizing the methods of strengthening from different worlds, Chu Chen made himself stronger.
"A traveler, huh... What do you two think? Achuca, Falubium..."
Sazex's gaze shifted to the other two, a flicker of inquiry in his eyes.
While he had his own ideas, the Underworld wasn't his alone, and this was no small matter.
Achuca remained silent for a moment before looking at Sazex.
"What's that person's strength like? Sazex, if you were to fight him, what are your chances of winning?"
"I'm not too sure, but I have a feeling that if I wanted to take him down, I'd have to be prepared to die with him!" Sazex's expression was very grave, which was also why he hadn't made a move against Chu Chen.
Of course, if Chu Chen knew Sazex's thoughts, he would only scoff.
Does my EX Twelve Trials mean nothing to you? Believe it or not, I can revive on the spot if I die!
"In that case, let's try not to fall out with that guy... Although he's from another world, we can't just assume he's an invader. Otherwise, it would be like rejecting all the people from other worlds who come with peaceful intentions..." Falubium said somewhat lazily.
"And if possible, we could exchange technologies with each other..."
Achuca continued, picking up from Falubium's words.
"I see, so you're interested in his ability to travel between worlds..."
Sazex immediately understood their thoughts.
"Not only that, but I'm also very interested in the weapons called 'Magi-Devices' that the two children Serafleur mentioned. Those things can unleash power far beyond the user's own capabilities. While it might cause some physical damage to humans, for us demons, it could potentially be a power comparable to divine artifacts..."
"Yes, yes! Achuca, if you manage to research anything, be sure to give me a copy! I've had my eye on the Magi-Devices of those two children for a long time, but they absolutely refuse to let me study them!"
Serafleur's dejected expression made the other three chuckle.
With that attitude, of course they'd be afraid you'd break their weapons!
"Then, next, I shall go and meet that person from another world..."
After Achuca said this, the meeting of the four Devil Kings regarding the person from another world came to an end.
Chapter 73: Chu Chen: Huh? Devil Coach! Very well, training volume doubled today! (Seeking Subscriptions)
Chu Chen hadn't been idle in the Underworld these past few days. After all, Chu Chen wasn't someone who could sit still.
It's important to remember that Chu Chen was solely focused on getting stronger; powerful strength was the foundation for traversing various worlds.
The law of the jungle, survival of the fittest, was a universal principle in every world... Chu Chen understood this very well.
So, Chu Chen had basically spent his time in the Underworld researching his newly acquired powers.
After all, if you don't understand your own strength before a fight, what's the point!
Thus, while Chu Chen watched Nanoha, Fate, and Serafleur spar (completing a sign-in mission), he was also having a blast with Asuna... Well, he had thought about looking for Rias and the others, the chosen ones of this world, but Asuna mentioned that Rias and the others were still in the Human World, and Asuna had returned to the Underworld to handle some personal matters.
So, Chu Chen went to get acquainted with this princess of the Gremory family.
The reason for this was, of course, that he had accepted Serafleur's request to help train her familiars.
And the reason he took on this request? It was mainly because Chu Chen intended to research the divine artifacts of this world.
At the same time, Chu Chen also took out the Seed of the Holy Stone he had obtained in the Nanoha world for research.
Authority: Creation (Fragment) – Although it was just a fragment of an authority, its power was already immense.
For example, before his evolution, Chu Chen's Item Creation EX included Avicebron's Item Creation, which could create various golems. However, Chu Chen couldn't create Avicebron's Noble Phantasm – "Golem Keter Malchut," because that Noble Phantasm was essentially a self-sustaining, autonomous bounded field that continuously altered the world simply by existing, rather than being a pure golem. While Chu Chen could create a golem of that strength, he couldn't replicate that Noble Phantasm.
But after evolving into Authority: Creation (Fragment), Chu Chen could now create this Noble Phantasm, and even some of its limitations had been removed. For instance, the heart, which served as its power source, had to be a Magician. However, the Golem Chu Chen created didn't require a Magician as its power source; it only needed a sufficient mana supply.
Therefore, Chu Chen could try to use this authority to imitate the manufacturing principles of this world's weapons to create divine artifacts.
As for materials, Chu Chen had a material repository, both in terms of quality and quantity, of the highest caliber!
So, as payment for helping them train, he borrowed Asuna's Queen – Shinra Tsubaki's divine artifact, the Mirror of Remembrance, for research. Who knew what results he might achieve.
Upon hearing that Chu Chen intended to research it, Asuna hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
She had also spent a few days with Chu Chen and didn't think he would do anything to Tsubaki's divine artifact out of boredom. Moreover, Chu Chen's strength was indeed formidable, and if he were to train her team, it might help her team grow stronger quickly. Thus... Chu Chen, along with Nanoha, Fate, Yuno, and Elf, got started.
These past few days had been incredibly grueling for Asuna's team...
And so, when Serafleur brought Achuca over, Chu Chen was still training Asuna's team.
Nanoha quickly flew into the air and engaged in a close-quarters battle with Asuna, while Fate transformed her Lightning Axe into its Saber mode and engaged in a fierce battle with Asuna's Queen – Shinra Tsubaki.
Both Nanoha and Fate were suppressing their combat power, having been ordered by Chu Chen not to use excessively large-area magic.
Attacks like SLB, which were focused beams, were prohibited!
As for Asuna's other familiars, they were facing Chu Chen's high-intensity training.
Numerous massive golems were swinging their huge fists, smashing down fiercely on their opponents.
Asuna's familiars were incredibly slow in their movements, each time narrowly dodging attacks.
No one would be foolish enough to directly tank such an attack. Just looking at them, these golems were massive, their fists, the size of sandbags made of rock and metal, whistled with the sound of gales every time they swung.
If they were to take a direct hit with that kind of force, it would be a nightmare!
Of course, while this training was extremely difficult, the results were undeniably remarkable.
Chu Chen's training was designed to improve every aspect of these individuals' physical condition. Since they were chosen by Asuna to be her familiars, they undoubtedly possessed extraordinary qualities. Furthermore, even reincarnated devils had significantly stronger physical bodies than normal humans, so Chu Chen decided to go all out with this special training.
"I'm so tired..."
"He's a demon..."
"I think the teacher is more like a demon than we are..."
Complaints echoed from Asuna's familiars. Even Asuna, after each spar with Nanoha and Fate, would look at Chu Chen with a resentful expression.
"Being your student is definitely the most exhausting thing in the world... Mr. Chu Chen, you are undoubtedly a devilish teacher!"
"Since Asuna said so, we'll double today's training load! Nanoha, Fate, go!"
With Asuna's face turning ashen, Nanoha and Fate didn't hesitate, unleashing two cannon blasts directly at her.
The devilish coach lived up to his reputation!
"This is quite tough... Is it for the upcoming Rating Game?"
Achuca knew, to some extent, about Serafleur's sister. Who among the Demon Lords didn't know about the two brothers who doted on their sisters?
Moreover, both Sazex's sister and Serafleur's sister were engaged to members of other pure-blood devil families.
And both of these women strongly disliked their fiancés.
Therefore, both of them intended to break off their engagements. Asuna's return this time was precisely to annul her engagement. If she could win the Rating Game, there was no doubt that Asuna would succeed in breaking off her engagement.
