I'll kill you after I finish this game!

A few days later, in the early morning, warm sunlight streamed in through the window, scattering across the floor and illuminating the room with dappled light.

Lei Zhe, who was pressed down on a certain adorable little girl, slowly opened his eyes. Because he could cool things down, there was no need to turn on the air conditioning in the room. The certain biblical little girl god naturally liked this cool environment.

Lei Zhe has gone from initially making fools of himself out of youthful impulsiveness to now maintaining a sage-like state. It seems that the holy radiance within him subconsciously influences Kasuga Hijiri when he is near her, preventing Lei Zhe from having any bad intentions.

Otherwise, how could he, with his complex mind and body in the throes of puberty, remain so calm while such a beautiful woman with a youthful face and a large bust, who can be both mature and cute, is resting unguarded beside him?

He gently raised his hand and embraced Kasuga Hijiri, who was sleeping on his chest. His mind went blank for a moment, and he inhaled the fragrance emanating from the Holy Bible Lolita Goddess, enjoying the feeling of waking up in the morning.

He had no memory of his younger sister waking him up before, and at first, he felt very uncomfortable when he returned home. But now he's gotten used to certain biblical loli goddesses appearing around him, and the house has become a bit more lively.

With his current physical condition, he can go without food and sleep for several days and nights. As long as he finds some free time to meditate and cultivate, his body can recover much faster than with ordinary sleep. Ordinary people's lifestyle habits are slowly disappearing from him.

Raiji usually only maintains his old habits when he gains new power and feels surprised and fulfilled, or when he relaxes after a long period of training.

After a moment of distraction, Rai Zhe felt the cute thing on his chest move. Looking down, he saw Kasuga Hijiri, who was lying on him, blinking her bright, holy golden eyes at him. Their eyes met.

There was no shyness or embarrassment at all. Haruhisa even used her hands like a kitten to grab Rai Zhe's sleepy body and lay down on him, blinking her beautiful eyes as she looked at Rai Zhe who had come back to his senses and said in a low voice, "Zhe, go make breakfast."

Alright, every morning I also have to prepare feed to feed a certain biblical loli goddess.

However, seeing such beautiful scenery every morning, and being by Kasuga Hijiri's side always calms his mind unconsciously, so Raiji definitely doesn't dislike this feeling.

While pondering to himself, Lei Zhe looked at the delicate, expressionless face in front of him, reached out and gently pinched the other person's slightly chubby, fair cheeks, admiring the way the other person made a funny face.

"You're clearly a god, yet you still feel hungry?" The smooth, delicate skin of Haruhi Sei's face between his fingers was irresistible to Raize. The feel of touching and squeezing it was simply indescribable, as if it could really be squeezed to release water.

"I'm not hungry, but I want to eat." Haruhisa didn't resist Raiji's groping hands. After all, Raiji's movements were very gentle, and she enjoyed Raiji's service like a noble Persian cat.

The original Holy Spirit was incredibly busy, dealing with many matters in the heavens. The only hobby she could cultivate was creating various divine artifacts.

Now that she can relax and not slack off, Kasuga Hijiri naturally wants to experience things she's never done before. Before meeting Raiji, she traveled around the world alone, and she even visited planes adjacent to the human world.

Her new hobby is enjoying the offerings from her contractors.

Both of them are big foodies and are quite obsessed with food. After getting up and tidying up, Lei Zhe went downstairs to start cooking.

Many things have ripened on my farm in my side-player game, and I can take them out of my inventory to eat.

However, a certain system spirit inside Lei Zhe's body, watching him cook, felt a little jealous, even though she was the one who came first.

"You're always taking up my spot. Once I recover, you'll be sorry. You'll have to pay for everything you've taken from me, your host." The system spirit's tone was full of sourness, and it no longer hid its dissatisfaction from Rei Zhe.

"Alright, I prepare lunch for you every day when I get to school. What do you want to eat today?"

Lei Zhe was used to his own system complaining in his head, but he didn't say anything, only comforting the other party through his actions.

【That's different. I'm the lady of this house, and you're my host. Why should I have to hide... I want boneless saury, and I want popcorn for snacks!!】

[Oh right! I almost forgot the important thing. It's all that jerk's fault. Ah Zhe, thanks to the game faith I've absorbed recently, along with the ghoul souls you hunted, Devil May Cry and Sekiro will be unlocked soon. Now you can open one more secondary game!]

The system has also absorbed a lot of energy to repair itself during Lei Zhe's efforts over this period. In addition, Lei Zhe occasionally goes out at night to earn 'extra money', so her repair is going quite well.

The extra energy can be used to help its own host.

Lei Zhe's eyes lit up when he heard the good news from the system. If he could unlock and complete Sekiro and Devil May Cry, his strength would also improve significantly.

Now that there's a secondary profession in the game, I can open another one, which makes me even happier.

The farm is the only secondary profession in the game, and it can help him in his daily life. He can plant whatever he wants in the future.

This has been a great help to him, and Lei Zhe is quite looking forward to seeing what the latest side-profession game will be like.

While making breakfast, Lei Zhe used his mental energy to open the secondary profession game directory. In addition to the farm icon, there was indeed another game icon.

"Huh, I didn't expect it to be this..."

What came into Lei Zhe's view was a chibi-style icon with pink hair, and the four characters "Azur Lane" were displayed right in front of him.

Most anime fans have probably heard of the term "ship girl," which was incredibly popular for a short time in the previous life of Reiji, and many ship girl games have been released since then.

Azur Lane is one of them. It is a real-time naval battle mobile game with anthropomorphic warships. The game is based on the theme of anthropomorphic military ships. Players can collect and develop powerful characters and equipment through a variety of gameplay such as main story stages, daily dungeons, combat exercises, and ship construction, and manually operate their own fleet to conquer the seas.

In his previous life, Lei Zhe often played games in his spare time and never forgot to do his daily tasks. Apart from the ship girls he missed from the events, he had a very complete collection of ship girls under his command.

He had a lot of gold and rainbow skins in the dock and warehouse, but after he got tired of it and sold his account for a lot of money, he never touched the game again.

Seeing this familiar game icon again now naturally evokes a sense of nostalgia.

After regaining his senses, he began to think about the benefits this game could bring him. After all, there are many good things in the Azur Lane game, and it would be great if they could be randomly manifested.

With that in mind, Lei Zhe couldn't wait to open the Azur Lane game and quickly enter its interface.

After the initial story and gameplay explanations, Razer pondered for a while among the three starter characters and finally made the exact same choice as in his previous life: the lazy, alcoholic loli who really appealed to him as his love interest—Lafie.

Laffey was his initial ship girl, exactly the same choice he made in his previous life.

"The Benson-class destroyer Lafite is at your command... Commander, this ear is not true, please stop staring..."

Looking at the girl on the projected game screen in front of him, wearing cute bunny ear headbands and speaking in a soft, gentle tone, Lei Zhe felt quite good.

Hearing Lafite's familiar voice felt wonderful.

In Azur Lane, he only has three favorite ship girls: the cute Illustrious, the lazy Laffey, and Unicorn.

Laffey was the first ship girl he acquired. With the initial goodwill and the accumulation of time, no matter how many ship girls Reiji acquired afterward, he never put Laffey out of the list of his secretary ships.

Laffey can be said to have witnessed the history of Razer playing Azur Lane, which is of great significance to Razer.

This game is somewhat different from the farming game, but like it, it's a permanent game. In addition to receiving rewards for completing story stages, you'll also receive random rewards for playing it regularly.

[Naval Bases, Wisdom Cubes, Red Diamonds, Universal Oil, Azur Lane general resources, ship equipment, etc., can all be obtained as rewards through continuous gameplay. To create ship girls, you need to prepare Wisdom Cubes and a construction furnace first. The higher your affinity with a ship girl, the greater the chance of her materializing...]

While listening to the system wizard's game explanation, he played the game with a distraction. After finishing his meal, Lei Zhe took a phone call and immediately took out a large bundle of accumulated papers from his room, put them in his briefcase, changed into casual clothes, and prepared to go out to take care of business.

Besides his previous novels, his comics have also been published long ago, after all, his mother is a romance comic artist.

After gaining Sonic's super speed, he manually printed a lot of comic book manuscripts at home.

Because he lacked fame, he contacted his mother's editor through her connections and submitted his work, including the first three parts of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure and Type-Moon.

Having accumulated a considerable following, he rarely made public appearances. After completing the third part of JOJO and the Type-Moon Holy Grail War, he directly released the first part of Dragon Ball.

He hasn't updated Dragon Ball Z. Although he finished drawing it at home a long time ago, he didn't release it all at once. He needs some time to build up his popularity.

Drawing comics is not his main career; making games is what he should be doing. Everything else is just paving the way for his games.

P.S.: Please vote, please tip, please recommend, please even offer harsh words! The military situation has changed—the Ship Girl Legion!

Chapter 43 The Pure Shiina Mashiro

He didn't relinquish any of these extra rights for any of the signed comics, even if it meant taking a slight loss in royalties.

Some people who wanted to contact him to make money after his comics became popular. He didn't mind, but he had to carefully observe whether they had the ability to do so.

He didn't want his comic, which paved the way for the game, to be adapted into an anime by someone else, as that would damage the popularity that Reiji wanted.

Today is another day when an editor wants a manuscript. He usually sends the completed manuscripts to the recipient in batches, and today is the day.

Half an hour later, Lei Zhe arrived at the place he had arranged to meet the comic editor, a dessert shop.

"Hey hey~ Xiao Zhe, over here!!"

As he entered and spoke with the waiter, a short-haired woman sitting at a table not far away raised her hand, smiled, and waved to him, gesturing for him to come over quickly.

After nodding to the waiter, Lei Zhe walked over and looked at the short-haired beauty in front of him, who was also his mother's friend and his current manga editor, Ayano Iida.

After Reiji approached the table, he discovered that Ayano Iida was not the only one sitting there; there was also a girl sitting next to her, eating cake in small bites like a quiet and cute little hamster.

Her girlish charm was so pure and ethereal, like a tranquil girl who had stepped out of a painting. She was tall but somewhat slender, with long, smooth, light golden hair draped over her shoulders, and her skin as white as snow. Her slightly phoenix-shaped eyes gave her a somewhat mature look.

It looks very beautiful overall, but it also gives Razer the feeling of a fragile, beautiful work of art.

Lei Zhe recognized who it was. After all, there was an older female teacher named Chihiro Sengoku in the school office. If he guessed correctly, this was none other than the famous Shiina Mashiro from the art world.

This young girl's artistic journey so far has been paved with major art awards. Her value cannot be measured in money. At sixteen, she is already a world-class artist.

Based on Lei Zhe's memory of watching television frequently, the queen of a certain Ying Kingdom placed a painting of Shiina Mashiro in her palace.

This is quite interesting. The paintings that have survived from the royal palace are all treasures from the Renaissance period. This means that Shiina Mashiro's paintings are so precious that they are comparable to those of famous historical artists such as Leonardo da Vinci or Van Gogh.

She wouldn't be in the palace without considerable value; Shiina Mashiro's value is in no way inferior to that of a princess.

Although Reiji knew who this girl was, after sitting down in front of Ayano Iida, he still raised his eyebrows and looked at her grinning face, saying, "Why did you bring another one along? Your daughter?"

“That’s not the case!!”

Upon hearing Lei Zhe's words, Ayano Iida, who had been maintaining a smile, immediately broke down. If Shiina Mashiro, this girl, was her daughter, how old would she be?

But if she really had a daughter as cute and talented as Mashiro, she would be laughing in her dreams.

Shiina Mashiro, who had just finished eating a Baumkuchen with both hands and was licking her pale fingers like a kitten, turned her innocent and indifferent gaze to Raize, who was sitting in front of Iida Ayano.

Her innocent and adorable little face didn't reveal any obvious emotions.

Raiji didn't feel anything as two big, bright eyes scrutinized and investigated him. Shiina Mashiro was very cute and beautiful, and her pure and ethereal temperament made people unconsciously look at her.

However, compared to the mature aura of Kasuga Hijiri, Shiina Mashiro's purity was far inferior, and she really couldn't compare to Kasuga Hijiri's holiness. Kasuga Hijiri's mature appearance was something that Rai Tsukushi could never forget.

Ayano Iida, standing to the side, looked at Mashiro Shiina, who looked like a small animal beside her, and introduced her to Raiji with a smile: "This is also a manga artist, but she has only just debuted. However, she is quite famous~ Can you guess who she is?"

Ayano Iida truly treats Shiina Mashiro, whom she keeps by her side, like a troublesome younger sister. She is also good friends with Shiina Mashiro's friend, Rita Einzworth.

Hearing Ayano Iida's mysterious tone, Raiji suppressed his smile, took out his phone, took a picture of Mashiro Shiina, and then clicked on the image search.

After quickly glancing at it, he turned his phone directly towards Ayano Iida, where it was filled with basic information about Mashiro Shiina.

Ayano Iida pouted unhappily at Lei Zhe's actions and said, "Zhe is so old-fashioned, not at all like your mother's lively self."

She and Lei Zhe were quite familiar with each other; knowing Lei Zhe's mother meant she also knew Lei Zhe himself.

Ayano Iida attended the funeral held at Raiji's house.

"What a strange color..."

Suddenly, Shiina Mashiro, who had been silently watching Rai Zhe, spoke up. She opened her beautiful phoenix eyes and looked directly into Rai Zhe's eyes, saying, "Why do you have so many colors?"

The soft voice and tone are like a gentle breeze, so low that it would be an illusion if you didn't pay attention, but Lei Zhe is not one of them.

“You also have extraordinary eyes, great painter.” Looking at the girl in front of him, Lei Zhe’s gaze was devoid of emotion. After carefully examining her clear and innocent eyes, he returned the compliment.

Shiina Mashiro was clean inside and out, and her beautiful eyes offered a different perspective than most people. The world might be different in the eyes of a painter. Rai Zhe didn't know what Shiina Mashiro saw in him, nor did he have much interest in exploring it.

The girl looked puzzled at Lei Zhe's praise.
