Li Yu looked at Nangong Natsuki with a strange expression and said, "Natsuki-chan, you really like gothic fashion, huh? You even dressed Sakura and Xia Shi up like that!"

Those who wear this are usually rich girls, after all, a gothic outfit is very expensive. Li Yu even suspected that the reason why Nangong Natsuki worked so hard to earn money was to buy a gothic outfit.

"What? You have a problem with that?" Hearing this, Nangong Natsuki frowned, immediately displeased. She had a feeling this guy seemed to have some kind of problem with her. How dare you underestimate my hobby?

"No, no problem, just a little surprised. Is Sakura settling in well here?" Li Yu grinned, very sensibly not saying much about the issue, but instead went inside to chat with Sakura.

Upon hearing Li Yu's question, Sakura nodded hurriedly, saying happily, "Sister Natsuki is so good to me! She bought me lots of new clothes and even started teaching me True Magic."

She started chattering away, recounting everything that had happened to her throughout the day. It hadn't been long since she'd been brought here that morning.

However, Nangong Natsuki had already done many things with her, and in just one day, she completely let down her guard and accepted Nangong Natsuki, in addition to the very intelligent Xia Shi Shizai.

Getting Sakura to fit in was incredibly easy. After learning a little about the situation, Li Yu understood the reason behind it. Upon entering Nangong Natsuki's house, Li Yu discovered that the house was quite cluttered with belongings.

However, they all seem to be things for children? They seem to be things that were bought but never used. A strange look flashed in Li Yu's eyes as he looked at those things.

Could it be that Nangong Natsuki bought it for Xia Shi before? If so, Li Yu understands very well why it's no longer needed, since Xia Shi is no ordinary child.

So they bought it, but nobody plays with it, and it wasn't thrown away either. To put it bluntly, this young woman doesn't know how to take care of kids; she thinks Xia Shi and the others are just ordinary children.

"Please make yourself at home. You can stay here tonight, or you can go find a hotel." After saying that, Nangong Natsuki turned around and went into her room.

Li Yu didn't mind, and instead started talking to Sakura and Xia Shi, asking them if they were used to being here. The three chatted for a while, and then Nangong Natsuki came out.

She had changed into casual clothes and was no longer wearing the black Gothic Lolita outfit. After sitting down on the sofa, she asked Li Yu, "Besides the ability to read information, you must have had other abilities in that world, right? Otherwise, those two wouldn't have thrown you back."

In response to Nangong Natsuki's question, Li Yu nodded and immediately explained, "Besides that, I also completed the Third Magic, possessing infinite magic power, and learned the method of forging Noble Phantasm."

There's no need to hide the Third Magic, because as the two sides make contact, some information from the other side will definitely be transmitted over, and then Li Yu's mastery of the Third Magic will naturally become impossible to conceal.

Nangong Natsuki was shocked upon hearing this. She immediately sat up straight and said, "Infinite magic power? Are you serious? You just created Second Magic Source, and now you've actually gained infinite magic power?"

What incredible luck! After throwing Li Yu over there, she's completely taken off! As for the Noble Phantasm, she knows what it is—the one those Heroic Spirits hold—but she's not particularly interested.

Although the Noble Phantasm is quite powerful, they actually have similar things on their side, such as the method of forging demonic swords brought back from Danmaku. These things are not much different from the Noble Phantasm.

What she was more concerned about was the matter of infinite magic power. She wondered if this thing could be replicated. If it could, then the True Magic on their side would be on a roll!

Nangong Natsuki stared intently at Li Yu. She was also True Magic, so she was naturally very interested in things like infinite magic power.

"I'm sorry, this cannot be replicated. The Third Magic itself can only be completed through the Root. Only in this way can it be upgraded. You can't have unlimited magic power. The only thing you can do is have an inexhaustible supply of magic power." Li Yu then explained the process of collecting magic power in the Third Magic.

This is actually the Greater Grail System, only it applies to humans. While it can't provide infinite magic power, it's sufficient for most purposes. The only limitation is that it requires time to accumulate.

"I see. If that's the case, you can combine the Second Magic Source you created earlier with it to create an even more powerful True Magic." Having understood the situation, Nangong Natsuki gave up.

Her magic power is actually quite substantial, and now that she's starting to learn how to use the Second Magic Source that Li Yu created, she'll have even more magic power in the future.

"In that case, no one could possibly learn it. Many people can't even learn the Second Magic Source, let alone with added difficulty." Li Yu looked at Nangong Natsuki with some helplessness.

That's too simplistic. A simple calculation shows that if this True Magic were completed, it would be one of the most difficult True Magic ever made. Even if Li Yu announced it, probably very few people would be able to complete it.

Nangong Natsuki nodded helplessly upon hearing this, acknowledging that it made sense. After pondering for a moment, she simply gave up and didn't say anything more about it.

After chatting with Nangong Natsuki for a while, Li Yu started playing with Xia Shi and the others. In the afternoon, Hestia also came over; it was unclear where she had heard the news.

Hestia, who had also arrived, told Li Yu some special news, "Li Yu, Li Yu, let me tell you, my world has completely connected with this one! Those guys are applying to come over, and Loki has already come all the way here."

A flicker of surprise crossed Li Yu's eyes upon hearing this. They've already fully integrated? Wasn't it supposed to take some more time? How come things have been expedited?

"I can tell you about this. Because of the world you went to before, many of our Spatial Passage merged faster, which is why they connected ahead of schedule," Nangong Natsuki said at this moment.

Upon hearing this, Li Yu's eyes flashed with surprise as he asked, "Does it also have an impact from other worlds? Or is there some other reason for it?"

The two dimensional portals are clearly not in the same city, right? How were they affected? Li Yu was a little puzzled, since they were clearly several thousand kilometers apart.

"It's the rule of the world. Our world also has World Will. When each world merges with us, as long as we have any influence on the newly merged world, our World Will will become stronger." Nangong Natsuki told Li Yu these secrets very seriously.

After all, Li Yu will come into contact with these things sooner or later. In other words, the more worlds Li Yu goes to now, the greater the impact he has on those worlds, and the stronger their world will become.

However, the Nasuverse is an exception, because the Nasuverse is heavily guarded and does not allow people from their world who are too powerful to go there. Because of this, their world's influence on that world is very limited.

This is precisely why the World Will accelerated the integration of the DanMachi world, forcibly bringing that world over, which can be considered a significant boost.

After hearing Nangong Natsuki's explanation, Li Yu was surprised and also somewhat puzzled. Wasn't he considered an outsider? If it was the World Will, did it know about his affairs?

In this world, he used his awakened talent to pull him over and replace him. Did that also have the approval of the World Will? At this moment, Li Yu had even more questions in his mind.

He always felt that these things couldn't be hidden from the world's World Will. After all, he didn't have a system or anything; he came directly in physical form. How could he possibly hide it from them?

"The world's World Will is quite easy to talk to, and it stands with us. It can't interfere too much in human affairs; it can only interfere at the level of world rules." Seeing Li Yu frowning in thought, Nangong Natsuki assumed that Li Yu was worried about something, so she said this.

Li Yu was even more speechless upon hearing this. It would be even more terrifying if they could make the rules, right? They say they can't interfere, but in reality, they're just too lazy to interfere? Li Yu didn't believe that Nangong Natsuki and the others didn't understand.

However, upon further reflection, Li Yu felt that there was nothing to worry about. After all, when he returned from Type-Moon, Alaya did not lay a hand on him, which might be due to the World Will.

Thinking about it was pointless, so Li Yu simply stopped pondering these questions and continued chatting with Hestia and the others. However, not long after, Nangong Natsuki sent Li Yu off to cook.

In her words, she no longer wanted to eat out, so she asked Li Yu to cook, since she didn't know how, while Xia Shi was learning. This made Li Yu suspect that Nangong Natsuki intended for him to teach Xia Shi so that they wouldn't have to eat in the cafeteria anymore.

Li Yu prepared a simple five-dish meal with soup, and everyone sat down to enjoy it. Nangong Natsuki was quite satisfied with Li Yu's cooking. After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Nangong Natsuki couldn't help but say to Li Yu, "If you have nothing to do this summer vacation, you can go and wander around in the 3rd Dimensional Rift. There are some kinds of beings in that world called the Gods of Heretic Gods."

Nangong Natsuki pointed out a path for Li Yu, suggesting that he could kill Li Yu when he had nothing else to do, so that he could gain more Authorities, since Li Yu no longer needed to worry about being cursed by the Gods.

A perfect God Slayer will not change because of subsequent god-slaying. Acquiring more Authorities will also benefit Li Yu himself, since there are currently Heretic Gods active over there.

Li Yu became interested when he heard Nangong Natsuki say that. The Heretic Gods, the God Slayer, it goes without saying which world this is. Dimensional Rift. 3? It seems to have descended a long time ago. If that's the case, then Li Yu really has to go and take a look.

Having thought this through, Li Yu nodded in agreement, while Hestia, standing to the side, was completely bewildered. Her status as a god was still alive; was it really alright for her to say something like that?
