Anime Crossover: Master is Not Here Today

"Alright, enough of the jokes, let's get down to business."

BB winked playfully and smiled:

"First, let me tell you some good news, senior."

"Although the producer said that the player would actually die after the game character is created, I have modified this rule."

"Currently, when a character dies, the player simply enters a vegetative state, and I can heal them at any time."

"Of course, if the player's family chooses to euthanize the other party during this period, then there's nothing I can do."

Hearing this, Fujimaru Ritsuka breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as it's not a real death game, the situation isn't urgent yet.

"The rules of this game are very simple: defeat the game's boss."

"Of course, 100 floors would be too time-consuming, just 5 floors will do. After clearing 5 floors, I will quit the game."

"Isn't that incredibly generous? You can thank me for that."

"If I say thank you, will that be the end of it?"

She tentatively began to speak.

The conditions sounded quite lenient, but since it was a baby, she felt things might not be that simple.

"Of course—no way!"

Sure enough, BB continued with a smile:

"Next are some restrictions."

"You asked me about your own body earlier, right?"

"Now for the answer: I made some adjustments to your body to achieve a data-driven effect."

"In other words, senior, you are now completely present in this game."

"Furthermore, I have restricted your abilities. In the game, you cannot summon Servants, use Mystic Codes, or manipulate magic power. You are no different from an ordinary person."

"In other words, this time, you must rely on your own abilities to complete the game, just like other players."

Upon hearing this, she nodded slightly, indicating that she could accept the condition.

Compared to this condition, what she actually wanted to say was—

"Don't touch other people's bodies without permission!"

"I was only thinking of my seniors, how can it be considered casual?"

BB replied with an air of self-righteousness, clearly showing no remorse whatsoever.

She even frowned and retorted, accusing her in return:

"Alright, interrupting a cute girl's speech like that will bring divine retribution. Let her finish speaking first."

Which is more likely to incur divine retribution: interrupting someone's speech or altering their body?

Although Fujimaru Ritsuka really wanted to complain, she quieted down for the time being after hearing what she said and let her finish.

"Secondly, you must personally participate in and play a role in defeating these five bosses."

"If someone doesn't participate in the strategy or their role in battle doesn't meet my standards, then the strategy level will have to be postponed."

"As for what constitutes meeting the standard, you'll have to figure that out for yourself, but the final interpretation rests entirely with me!"

Isn't this a completely unfair contract term?

"at last!"

BB held up one finger, revealing a mischievous smile once again:

"While other players who die in the game will temporarily be in a vegetative state, if you accidentally die in the game—"

"Those people will die along with you, senior!"

"Literally, truly falling into death."

So please struggle to survive.

That concludes the explanation of all the rules.

With a wave of her hand, BB caused the deep blue data space in front of her to collapse. A wave of weariness washed over her, and she couldn't help but start to droop her eyelids.

Before my eyes closed completely, I heard BB's last words, full of laughter—

"Have fun playing the game, senior!"

Whenever I write about BB (Baby Booster), I think of the BB tank I used to use that sank.

Alas, sadness wells up in my heart.

Chapter 139. Choosing a new weapon, Lancer Fujimaru Ritsuka makes her debut!

139.

2023-11-22

"Hmm--"

In the early morning, Asuna woke up from her sleep and slowly opened her sleepy eyes.

Seeing the simple, even somewhat shabby, room in front of her, she was momentarily stunned, and then suddenly recalled everything that had happened yesterday.

They've been trapped in the game by Kayaba Akihiko. Today they're officially starting to fight monsters and level up.

Thinking of this, she instantly became wide awake, all sleepiness gone.

Although I was startled awake, I slept very well all night because I went to bed early last night and wasn't bothered by the current situation.

"Go for it, Asuna, you can do it!"

After regaining consciousness, Asuna felt refreshed and encouraged herself in a low voice, strengthening her resolve.

After doing all this, she looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka who was standing to the side.

The other person was still fast asleep, lying on their side facing her, revealing a lovely and peaceful sleeping face, their body slightly curled up, rising and falling gently with their regular breathing.

Unlike her carefree yet incredibly reliable and reassuring image from yesterday, Fujimaru Ritsuka in her sleep looks more like an adorable little animal that evokes pity.

And it's a sleepy little animal.

"Ritsuin, Ritsuin"

She called the other person's name softly, but the sound seemed insufficient to wake them.

So she got out of bed, went to the other person's bedside, and called out again:

"Ritsuka, Ritsuka, it's time to get up!"

As she called out to him, she suddenly remembered the goal she had set before falling asleep last night, and her gaze involuntarily drifted toward the other person's abdomen.

Now seems like a good opportunity—

"Hmm."

Just as she was about to make her move, Fujimaru Ritsuka whimpered and slowly opened her eyes, still half asleep.

Asuna jumped in surprise, quickly put her hands behind her back, and greeted her as if nothing had happened:

Good morning, Ritsuka!

"Hmm, good morning, Asuna."

However, Fujimaru Ritsuka, who had just woken up, did not notice her little action and responded in a daze.

After sitting up in bed and letting out a big yawn, she rubbed her eyes and opened the system window to check the time.

06:36 in the morning.

I really want to go back to sleep, but oh well, I'll leave it at that.

Because BB reset all players' levels and equipment yesterday, they have to buy equipment again today.

After a night's rest, Asuna's mindset seemed to have greatly recovered, and she was closer to her original state.

Walking down the street, she even had the mood to complain to Fujimaru Ritsuka:

"Speaking of which, there was something I really wanted to complain about yesterday."

"I know that characters in games don't get dirty, but it's really uncomfortable not to wash up before going to bed and after waking up, right, Ritsuka?"

"It is indeed a bit unusual."

She smiled and replied upon hearing this:

"But to solve this problem, all I need to do is work hard to kill monsters and make money, and then move to a more luxurious hotel."

"Ha~"

After she finished speaking, she yawned slightly.

Upon hearing Fujimaru Ritsuka mention fighting monsters, Asuna tensed up slightly, but seeing the other woman yawning, she asked curiously:

"Ritsuka, did you not sleep well last night?"

"more or less."

She sighed.

And to be precise, not only did I not sleep well last night, but I also didn't sleep well the night before.

"is that OK?"

Suddenly, Asuna looked at her with concern and spoke to her. She smiled and replied:

"Don't worry, it's no problem."

"No matter what you say, I would never joke about my own life."

"Ok."

Asuna could only nod, but she still looked vaguely worried.
