A Subsidy Infinitesimally Close to Zero

Ibuki wanted to play with the children, but Shuten didn't go, leaving her in a dilemma. In the end, she decided to stay with Shuten, and she also found it hard to give up Emiya's cooking.

With the timing and personnel all set, Yuxian, the Chaldea Master, is becoming increasingly ineffective.

He stood in the control center, awaiting instructions from Da Vinci.

OK! Best of luck to you all!

Da Vinci's voice came, and the Spirit Transfer began.

Yuxian led his group on a new journey.

The sky was clear and a deep blue, with the sun high overhead; it was a bright and sunny afternoon.

Yuxian and his group arrived at a park. The benches, grass, and trees all looked so fresh and lovely.

The environment here is very clean, and there is no litter on the ground. It is a nice park for leisure.

There was no one in the park in the afternoon, Yuxian led everyone outside.

Upon arriving on the street, one sees neat buildings on both sides, clean streets, and a few scattered pedestrians.

The environment here is very nice, and everyone has a smile on their face, suggesting that life here is very peaceful.

"Phew, finally we've arrived in a nice world. Let's find a place to stay and try to move in before dark."

Compared to a world filled with fighting and killing, Yuxian prefers this peaceful world.

Living carefree here, with nothing to worry about, leisurely finding people, playing games at home, and occasionally taking the kids out shopping – this is the Yuxian for.

"Migu! Little Tamamo is looking for a place to stay."

Tamamo no Mae was very excited and took the initiative to find a place to stay, as she had a unique hobby of decorating rooms.

Yuxian did not refuse, but he still asked Mash to come along so that she wouldn't cause any trouble.

After searching for a while, they finally found an apartment building to rent.

Despite the sparse crowds on the streets, this city is actually quite densely populated.

It's just that Yuxian and his group arrived during working hours, which is why there were so few pedestrians on the street.

Moreover, this is a residential area, not the center of a big city; it's closer to the suburbs, which is why it's relatively quiet.

There weren't many large courtyards available for them to rent, so they eventually found a decent apartment.

The apartment building wasn't tall; a four-story building was clearly not considered tall in this era.

However, the buildings in this area are generally not tall, so the apartment buildings get a lot of sunlight.

Even though Yuxian and his group only rented the first floor, the room was still quite bright and spacious.

The reason for renting the first floor is that the landlord of this apartment has divided the upper floors into smaller units to make them easier to rent out.

For some reason, the first floor wasn't partitioned, so there was just enough room for Yuxian and his group.

The first floor is not bad either. As long as the sunlight can reach it and it is not too dark, Yuxian does not have any requirements or preferences for the floor.

"Let's go! Let's go!"

Tamamo no Mae was even more excited than the children, and couldn't wait to go shopping at the mall.

New residents naturally need to purchase many things, and some of these things are inconvenient to carry around.

We asked passersby for directions to nearby department stores and supermarkets, and then we happily set off together.

They were all very enthusiastic about shopping, Yuxian had no choice but to accompany them. He couldn't even slack off; he was dragged here and there.

Mash kept comparing various daily necessities and asking Yuxian for his opinion.

Tamamo no Mae lingered in the clothing section, needing to buy several new outfits. Her shrine maiden outfit was indeed quite inconvenient, and she had been frequently stared at by passersby on her way there, who assumed she was a cosplay enthusiast.

The children preferred the food area, where they discussed what ingredients to buy for dinner.

There was no problem with that.

But what bothered Yuxian the most was that they all wanted to consult him, which made him constantly run back and forth between different places.

In a short time, his forehead was already sweating; this was no easy task.

Yuxian was about to reach its limit and I couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to go on strike, the shopping finally ended.

His arms were Yuxian with bags and packages, and thankfully he was still quite strong; in the past, he would have been lying on the ground unable to move.

On the way back, there were suddenly more pedestrians. It was already evening, and people were gradually leaving get off work and going home, while students were also leaving school.

The bustling crowds on the streets made Yuxian realize that they had arrived in a modern metropolis.

"Whoa!—"

A child's crying came from ahead, and passersby turned to look, but no one went to help.

A child was standing in the middle of the road crying. There were no adults with him, so it seemed he had gotten separated from his family.

People in big cities are always cold and indifferent, Yuxian couldn't help but shake his head inwardly.

"Let's go help him."

Yuxian said to the children.

He's carrying a lot of things right now, which makes things a bit inconvenient, but the kids can handle this kind of thing, so there's no need for him to waste his talents.

As they approached, a young girl had already comforted the crying child. She patiently talked to him and led him through the crowd in search of his family.

It wasn't until a middle-aged woman with an anxious expression rushed over and took the child away that she smiled and waved goodbye to the child.

"What a kind girl with an angelic smile!"

Mash remarked with admiration that she felt very fond of the girl's behavior.

Yuxian blinked and suddenly said, "You might be mistaken. That's a demon."

"Huh? Senior, you must be joking!"

Mash frowned, angered that Yuxian had actually called that kind girl a demon.

Yuxian a helpless, bitter smile.

He didn't know how to explain it to Mash; it was a bit complicated to explain.

After all, this is a world where the spirit of the underworld is pure and simple, yet the winds and sun are turning against us!

If you insist on calling a demon like Vignette an angel, it's not a big deal, but she really is a demon!

You can't deny her background because of her behavior, can you?

Section 373, Chapter 2: Subsidies Approaching Zero

Meeting Vignette was just a minor incident and didn't affect Yuxian's plans to continue decorating their new home.

Surprisingly, Vignette walked alongside Yu Xian and the Yuxian the whole way, one in front of the other on the street.

When Vignette turned, they turned too; when Vignette crossed the street, they crossed too.

Vignette had already spotted Yuxian's group; it would be difficult not to notice such a large group.

If Yuxian and his group hadn't been so numerous, she would have even begun to suspect that she was being followed.

It wasn't until Yuxian and his group arrived home that Vignette learned they were new residents.

Yuxian and the others were also surprised that this kind and warm-hearted girl was actually their neighbor.

Mash was planning to meet her when she had time, but they were busy setting up their new home and couldn't find the time.

In fact, Mash misunderstood; this was not Vignette's home, and she did not live here.

She came here to find Gabriel.

Gabriel's home is on the second floor of the apartment she rented during her Yuxian.

Vignette went upstairs, arrived at Gabriel's door, and opened it with a snap.

The room was very dark, with only the computer screen flashing its light.

Even though the sun hasn't set yet, it doesn't shine into the room at all, as it's blocked by the thick curtains.

With a few quick swipes, Vignette pulled back the curtains, and beams of dazzling light shone in.

Gabriel immediately squinted. Having spent so much time in front of a screen in dim light, she was momentarily unaccustomed to such bright light.

Vignette looked at Gabriel with annoyance and said, "Gabriel, you skipped class again today. If you keep doing this, your grades will be unsatisfactory and you'll have to repeat a grade."

"Okay, okay, I'll go study now."

Gabriel spoke very nicely, but she didn't move an inch.

After adjusting to the brightness of the room, she continued to focus intently on the screen.

"Smack!"

Vignette unplugged the power cord, and the computer screen immediately went black.

Gabriel panicked and yelled, "Ah! No! We're almost done! A rare item will drop!"

Then, his body, which had been unwilling to move at all, immediately sprang up, frantically plugging the power back in and turning the computer on again.

Vignette was at her wits' end, shaking her head as she looked at the piles of trash and the extremely messy room.

She immediately got to work, diligently cleaning for Gabriel until there wasn't a single dirty spot left in the room, then nodded in satisfaction.

After cleaning, Vignette did not leave immediately.

She sat down next to Gabriel and said, "Gabriel, a new family moved in downstairs today."

"Oh."

Gabriel gave a perfunctory reply. What did it matter to her who moved in or who moved out? Gabriel wouldn't care about such useless things.

You'd be better off spending that time running the dungeon a few more times; maybe you'll get that rare item then.

Regardless of whether Gabriel was listening attentively, Vignette continued, "It's a large family. I just saw that they had a lot of people and bought a lot of things."

"Oh, right, there are also several children, all of them girls."

Gabriel gave another "oh" and her hands flew across the keyboard.

"Gabriel, let's go say hello."

Vignette thought it would be good to get to know her new neighbors, since they might run into each other often in the future.

At this moment Gabriel had just finished a dungeon run and had a moment of free time.

She looked up at Vignette with a very strange expression.

Vignette was a little confused by her gaze and wondered if there was something wrong with her.

Gabriel slowly said, "Vignette, let's forget about it. I don't think I'll have any interaction with them."

After saying that, she refocused her attention on the game and started a new dungeon. She was determined to get that rare item today.

If we can't hit them, we'll stay up all night.

As for having class tomorrow, she had completely forgotten about it, since she had been skipping classes for quite some time now.

When Vignette saw Gabriel's expression, she was furious.

"Gabriel, you can't do this. You need to go out and interact with people more!"

"Oh, I have many friends in the game."

Gabriel didn't care at all; real-life friends were nowhere near as interesting as friends in the game.

Sure enough, one of her friends sent her a message.

Did you get that item?

"I haven't slept for three days and three nights! I'm so angry! There must be something wrong with the drop rate! I'm going to complain! I'm going to report this!"

Gabriel's fingers flew across the keyboard as she replied to the message.
