Super God: The Foundation, Starting with Fabricating SCPs
[Nami: What are you talking about? What's the Giant Wolf Civilization? Why can't I remember it?] [Garp: If you don't remember, let it go. One less thing to worry about!] [Child Emperor: Haven't you noticed? We're forgetting the Giant Wolf Civilization, but we haven't lost our memories of SCP-096. From that, we can conclude that the Foundation really did use SCP-096 to establish its authority.] [I don't know why, but I want to study at the Foundation! I want to learn the truth about the world, not be a frog in a well that could forget everything at any moment.] [Drive Knight: Me too! But I doubt the SCP Foundation would agree!] [Naruto: I hate studying more than anything!]
Half an hour earlier...
Just as SCP-096 was successfully contained, a string of system notifications rang out in Jiang Chen's mind.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, on successfully containing SCP-096. You have received one Foundation base (external affairs), 100 Class C external affairs staff, and 200 Class D external affairs staff!] [Ding! Congratulations, host, on successfully containing SCP-096. You have received one Great Wormhole Bridge (capable of connecting to any location in the Super God Universe).] [Ding! Congratulations, host, on successfully containing SCP-096. You have gained the conceptual-level ability Malice Perception. You can pinpoint the location of anything that harbors malice toward you! Spend Popularization Points to grant this ability to others.] [Ding! Congratulations, host, on successfully containing two Containment Objects. Special event triggered: Tainted Blood!] [Mission name]: Tainted Flesh! [Classification]: Safe Class! [Objective]: In three days, the Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba world will fall into the Super God Universe. Contain all demons and investigate the truth behind their emergence. [Reward]: Unknown! [Description]: Flesh is corrupted, souls tremble, carnal desire runs rampant—the mortal enemy of machines.
Jiang Chen stared at the sudden mission, stunned for a moment before sinking into thought.
Judging by the description, a Sarkic Cult Containment Object must have been responsible for creating Muzan in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. But Jiang Chen couldn't remember...
Which Containment Object it was.
After all, Muzan was pitifully weak. There was no way someone infected by any Containment Object could be that weak.
Forget it!
When the time came, he would send SCP-049, the Plague Doctor, to the Demon Slayer World to take a look!
It was precisely because Jiang Chen knew the Demon Slayer World would fall into the Super God Universe in three days that he had Doctor Bai Ting reveal the truth about the Super God Universe during the livestream.
Even if he didn't reveal it himself,
the truth would come out in three days, when the Myriad Races Livestream broadcast the entire process of the Demon Slayer World falling into the Super God Universe!
He might as well announce it early and earn some Popularization Points!
In an ordinary apartment building in Tianhe City...
"Xiao Chen, things have changed at work!"
Dressed in pajamas, Qilin ate the dishes Jiang Chen had prepared as she spoke. "I'll probably be very busy for a while, so I won't be coming home for meals."
"Take good care of yourself!"
"Don't make me worry!"
Ever since the SCP Foundation had appeared out of nowhere, Yanhuang had entered its highest state of military readiness on Admiral Ducao's orders. Almost every soldier and police officer...
was working around the clock.
All to prevent any unforeseen incidents.
As a Tianhe City police officer, Qilin was no exception. Nearly a week had passed, and this was her first time home for a meal.
The reason she had been granted leave
was that a woman named Rose, who claimed to work for Yanhuang Academy, had approached her that day and said she was a Super Soldier with a Super Gene.
Rose had invited her to join Yanhuang Academy
so that, with the help of Leina the Sun God, she could activate her Super Gene and become a so-called Super Soldier.
Rose's offer had surprised Qilin.
But after confirming that Rose's identity was genuine, Qilin, who had inherited her police badge, understood what she would face as a Super Soldier.
Even so, she had accepted without hesitation. Her only worry was Jiang Chen.
That was why she had taken a day off specifically to say goodbye to him.
Jiang Chen nodded to show he understood, then lowered his head and kept eating.
Truthfully, he hated the thought of Qilin leaving.
But he also knew she wouldn't give up joining Yanhuang Academy just because he asked her to stay.
So he said nothing to hold her back.
After dinner, Jiang Chen and Qilin washed the dishes amid playful teasing, then lay on the sofa and watched television for a while.
Qilin was exhausted from work.
Whenever they watched television, she had taken to resting her head on Jiang Chen's lap and letting him massage her temples.
It was one of the few ways she could relax.
As Qilin lay on his lap, she suddenly felt something hard pressing against the back of her head.
She had never been in a relationship,
but she knew what it was.
She looked up at Jiang Chen and met his smoldering gaze. Her cheeks flushed as she asked, "Xiao Chen, you're eighteen now, aren't you?"
"It's time you found a girlfriend!"
"What kind of girl do you like?"
Still massaging her temples, Jiang Chen replied with complete seriousness, "I like someone just like you, Qilin!"
Qilin had known how Jiang Chen felt about her.
But this was the first time she had heard him say it so directly. Sweet warmth welled up in her heart.
She closed her eyes and went back to enjoying his massage.
Late that night, Qilin lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
Jiang Chen's handsome, masculine face filled her thoughts.
Rose's words also resurfaced in her mind: Yanhuang Academy exists to train Super Soldiers. The enemies you'll face include Demons, the Gluttonous, and even Containment Objects with unfathomable powers.
If you aren't prepared to sacrifice your life at any moment, give up now.
Qilin had been watching the livestreams all this time.
She knew how dangerous it would be.
She had long been prepared to sacrifice her life. She was willing to die for her country, but she couldn't stop worrying about Jiang Chen.
Especially after what he had said while massaging her.
The thought of leaving him hurt all the more.
Qilin, don't leave yourself with regrets!
At last, Qilin made up her mind. She took a deep breath, walked to Jiang Chen's room, pushed open the door, and in the darkness...
found her way onto his bed!
She kissed him softly, then whispered, "Xiao Chen, don't say anything!"
"Kiss me!"
Jiang Chen knew what Qilin wanted. He said nothing, simply turned over and pinned her beneath him!
The next morning!
"Xiao Chen, I'm leaving! Take good care of yourself! Wait for me to come back!"
After breakfast, Qilin picked up her suitcase, gave Jiang Chen a light peck on the cheek, then walked with a distinctly awkward gait...
toward the black sedan bearing Yanhuang's insignia that had been waiting at the entrance to the residential complex.
Beside the sedan stood Rose, her long orange-red hair unmistakable. She watched Qilin and Jiang Chen with an amused expression. One look at the way Qilin walked told her what had happened last night.
That kid Jiang Chen sure is lucky with women.
To think Qilin threw herself into his arms.
But from now on, they'll belong to two different worlds.
As a Super Soldier, Qilin could live for tens of thousands of years. According to his file, Jiang Chen was just an ordinary high school student.
And an utterly unremarkable one at that.
Under the sway of hormones, he and Qilin might have a passionate romance. But as time went on, their feelings would surely be worn away.
Perhaps that's the difference between ordinary people and gods.
"Qilin!"
As the sedan sped away, Rose glanced at Qilin's flushed face and couldn't help saying, "I hope you don't regret it!"
"Of course, if you perform exceptionally well, you might be able to apply for a set of divine-body modification resources for Jiang Chen."
"Then that Jiang Chen kid could become a Super Soldier too!"
"You'd be able to fight side by side!"
Qilin froze, then asked without thinking, "Really?"
Rose nodded. "I have no reason to lie to you!"
"But divine-body modification resources are extremely precious."
"Getting approval won't be easy!"
"You'll have to work hard!"
Qilin clenched her fists and looked through the window toward Jiang Chen's home. She silently swore, Xiao Chen, wait for me!
I'll work twice as hard!
I'll get body modification resources approved for you as soon as I can. Then we can stay together forever.
While Qilin made her vow, Jiang Chen was washing the bedsheet. At the same time, he spent a million Popularization Points to grant her Presence Concealment.
He was certain that with Presence Concealment, Qilin would become a terrifying killing machine.
She would stand out even among the Super Soldiers!
But why was this bedsheet so hard to wash? He had washed it three times, and it was still stained bright red.
Super Soldier blood was something else!
Three days passed in a flash. As everyone waited with bated breath, a pinned banner appeared in every livestream room!
[In thirty seconds, the Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba world will fall into the Super God Universe! The entire event will be broadcast live!] [Note: An unknown cause has triggered a mutation in the Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba world.
