I, the Rock King Emperor with 21 billion in power, have joined the chat group.

Although it's unknown how much the traveler girl understood in her heart, at least her outward appearance was no longer so sad.

Zhongli sat at the bluestone table and slowly drank the tea in the stone cup in his hand.

A moment later, he looked at the blooming glass lilies and took a light step forward.

The next second, he was standing outside the world.

Between the colossal tree of imaginary numbers and the vast ocean of quantum mechanics, tiny, illusory bubbles rise and fall, flickering incessantly.

A terrifying dragon with seven heads and fourteen eyes, only half a size smaller than the Tree of Imaginary Numbers and the Sea of ​​Quanta, is raising one of its arms and placing a tiny bubble in its palm.

The giant dragon and the humanoid Zhongli exchanged a glance.

Then he let out a soft sigh.

"I am about to fall into a deep sleep."

The dragon's voice echoed in the void where no sound should have been heard.

"Yes, I am about to fall into a deep sleep."

The human-shaped Zhongli repeated the same thing.

“Then, let’s sleep,” said the seven-headed dragon.

Then He slowly closed His fourteen pairs of pale golden pupils.

The human-shaped Zhongli smiled, then the smile faded.

He looked at the dragon, which slept like a corpse, and sighed slowly.

"All men are born without freedom."

"What one desires but cannot obtain, one hates separation, and one resents life and death."

"but...."

"Ouch~~~~!"

The sighs faded, and everything vanished.

Chapter Five: The Golden Fairy, Vodka, and the Police

-----The Promising Future True Lord Joins the Chat Group-----

I am Subaru Natsuki: Zhongli Normal School is here~!

Spider: Ah, Senior Zhongli, oh my!

Spider: Senior Zhongli's notification to join the group is amazing! Does it require points to redeem? Or do I need to buy a membership? How much is the monthly membership fee?

I am Subaru Natsuki: ......

I am Subaru Natsuki: Spider-ko, the place you're focusing on is really a bit strange. I think Senior Zhongli probably also thinks it would be better to remove this group entry notification as soon as possible.

Future Promising True Lord (Zhongli): Hmm... indeed, Subaru is right. Speaking of which, I've actually gotten used to these kinds of prompts, which is really strange. Originally, I also really hated them.

Future Promising True Lord (Zhongli): If it hadn't been mentioned, I wouldn't have thought anything of it. But since it's been brought up, it feels a bit strange. How about this, I'll turn off this notification.

I am Subaru Natsuki: Hmm? Zhongli Normal School, I remember this notification couldn't be turned off, right?

Promising Future True Lord (Zhongli): Recently, after I gained access to the underlying program of the [Multiverse Chat System], I was able to turn it off. It's just that I forgot about it if you hadn't reminded me.

I am Subaru Natsuki: ?

One Hundred Thousand Dollar Miko (Hakurei Reimu):?

Sister Bisha (Kousaka Kyosuke):?

I'm Natsuki Subaru: I feel like I'm increasingly from a different world than Zhongli Shifan. Changing the underlying program of a chat group... could you possibly create another chat group now?

Future Promising True Lord (Zhongli): That's not possible, but I'm currently making a deal with the chat group's administrators. If it succeeds, there should be some changes to this chat group.

I am Subaru Natsuki: ? ?

I'm Natsuki Subaru: Sorry, I shouldn't have asked. Please forget what I just asked. Let's continue our previous topic and talk about Ms. Kato Megumi and her boyfriend making visual novels. I think I should be able to chime in on this.

Sister Bisha (Kousaka Kyosuke): I agree too. Kato Megumi's boyfriend is amazing. He can keep two super beautiful girls working for him for free while also developing feelings for Kato Megumi. It makes me so envious... no... jealous... not really. It makes me feel like the world is going to the dogs, and people's hearts are no longer what they used to be. It's unbelievable that visual novels actually have real-life counterparts.

Ten Thousand Yen Shrine Maiden (Reimu Hakurei): These are the kinds of things I absolutely don't want you to say, you dead sister complex. Even Subaru Natsuki is more reliable than you, after all, he's risking his life to build his harem.

I am Subaru Natsuki: ? ? ? I was just browsing the chat group for a while before going to sleep, why is this involving me?

Spider: Hmm~~! You guys don't understand, do you? In reality, there are people who are even more amazing than Ms. Kato Megumi's boyfriend. In high school, he dated seven girlfriends at the same time. There was one in our school. What's most amazing is that he was able to manage his time perfectly.

Spider: Spider, even as a lover, I find it so troublesome. It's like raising a kitten that only eats and acts cute.

Ten Thousand Yen Shrine Maiden (Reimu Hakurei): The way you say that, it's like you're talking to a spider girl who has a lover. Didn't you just return to Earth? You found a boyfriend so quickly? That's great, that's great.

Ten Thousand Yen Shrine Maiden (Reimu Hakurei): To be honest, I can't find any men of marriageable age in Gensokyo. Even if I wanted to be a lovesick girl, it wouldn't work. The only man I see regularly is that half-youkai from Karindou. Waaaaah, is it really spring? Everyone's talking about lovers, while I can only eat wagashi, drink green tea made from leftover dregs, and watch those self-proclaimed seventeen-year-old old women trying to look young.

I am Subaru Natsuki: I held my lover, Emilia, and dared not speak.

Sister Bisha (Kousaka Kyosuke): My lover and sister are just obstacles on the road to creating robots!

Ten Thousand Yen Shrine Maiden (Reimu Hakurei): You don't need to put your lover and sister on the same level. They're completely different things. You siscon, even if you know the plot, you've gone down a strange path, haven't you?

Sister Bisha (Kousaka Kyosuke): Hmm?? You... I... um... I'll check myself...

Sister Bisha (Kousaka Kyosuke): Sorry, I have to log off now. It seems my sister's friend has arrived.

I am Subaru Natsuki: I'm not surprised at all that a sister complex has embarked on the path of a sister complex.

Genuine (Yukino Yukinoshita): I'm not too surprised. Takasaka still hasn't seen himself clearly; he hasn't lived as a true being.

Ten Thousand Yen Shrine Maiden (Reimu Hakurei): No, no, no... Yukino. Although I don't live in a modern city, I also feel that I can't be a real person at a time like this. If I were a real person, my parents would really break my legs.

Kato-san (Kato Megumi): Today's boyfriend is chatting with his blonde childhood friend again.

Genuine (Yukino Yukinoshita): @Kato-san, are you really still playing games with that male classmate?

Kato-san (Kato Megumi): Yes, that's right. Yukino-san, I find making games surprisingly interesting.

Kato-san (Kato Megumi): I got a little into it. At least when making the game, my male protagonist was quite interesting.

Masato (Yukino Yukinoshita): ....Hmm, whatever makes you happy.

Golden Fairy (Corté): The topic of lovers? I wonder if I'll ever meet my own lover? What does it feel like to be in love? What's it like to have a lover? I'm kind of tempted to try it out.

Golden Fairy (Corté): But I'm afraid I can't try. We fairies are already lucky to have family by our side, and I'm even happier to have everyone in the chat group with me. I guess expecting a lover is a bit of a luxury.

Golden Fairy (Corté): After all, we are just a group of short-lived beings who have a weak concept of life and death and should not exist.

Genji (Yukino Yukinoshita): Stop talking, Cortée. You still have hope. At least from your description, the so-called "beasts" in your world are not that powerful.

I am Subaru Natsuki: Don't be sad, strive hard, and you will eventually succeed.

I am Subaru Natsuki: The powerful combat units in this group could easily wipe out all the beasts on the surface of your world. Even your planet is nothing more than a large glass ball to some of the beings in the group. Therefore, now that you have joined the [Multiverse Chat Group], your fate has already been reversed. In any case, as a member of the group, I will absolutely not allow the death of such a lovely fairy as you.

Ten Thousand Yuan Shrine Maiden (Reimu Hakurei): Yes, yes. If you don't believe everyone in the group is that powerful, you can try it yourself. For just a 1000-point mission card, both Mr. Sexy Prisoner and I can help you.

Future Promising True Lord (Zhongli): Count me in. I once said that I would try to change the apocalyptic world you live in. If you really need help, just buy a beginner mission card. I will send my clone to help you.

Golden Fairy (Corté): Yes, thank you everyone, I understand. We fairies often have such a weak sense of life and death, so I'm sorry, it's not that I'm in despair.

Golden Fairy (Corté): If needed, I would like to ask everyone to help me protect my family.

I am Subaru Natsuki: No problem! Leave it to me!

Ten Thousand Yen Shrine Maiden (Reimu Hakurei): I can help too!

Accelerator: I can't teleport using the beginner mission card anymore, damn it.

Wings Unfurl (Sexy Prisoner): If you need a hero, call my name. Then there's no need to be afraid anymore, for I will arrive and protect the weak with my life.

The Promising Future True Lord (Zhongli): Perfect timing, let me say something.

The Promising Future True Lord (Zhongli): @Golden Fairy, @Police Officer, @Chocolate and Alcohol.

The Promising Future True Lord (Zhongli): You three, I need your help.

Golden Fairy (Corté): What's wrong, Mr. Zhongli?

Police officer (Tendo Kisara): Is there something you need?

Chocolate and alcohol (Yuri): What happened?

Promising Future True Lord (Zhongli): I need your help. To be precise, I need the coordinates of your world.

Chocolate and Alcohol (Yuri): Want to come see us? Sure, sure, but how do I give you the coordinates?

Future Promising True Lord (Zhongli): I will give you 200 points every day, which is the daily limit for red envelopes that can be sent in the chat group. Up to 1000 points, which is enough to buy basic quest cards, you can then post quests, and I can go to your world.

Chocolate and Alcohol (Yuri): You're really coming to my world?!

Chocolate and alcohol (Yuri): Despair is far, far away!!

Future Promising True Lord (Zhongli): So, @Chocolate and Alcohol, do you agree?

Chocolate and alcohol (Yuri): Of course I agree!!

Promising Future True Lord (Zhongli): Okay, then @Police Officer, Miss Tiantong, are you willing?

Police officer (Tendo Kisara): .....Okay...but you have to help me kill off the entire Tendo family. That's my request.

Future Promising True Lord (Zhongli): I'm sorry, I don't know the truth about the Tiantong family or the world you live in, nor do I know whether the Tiantong family you mentioned is benevolent or evil, so I cannot agree to your request so hastily.

Promising Future True Lord (Zhongli): But... um... how about this, I can pay you a certain number of points as a reward, how about that?

Police officer (Tendo Kisara): Okay... So how many points are you willing to pay?

Promising Future True Lord (Zhongli): This depends on what I might gain in your world, but it should be at least 500 points.

Police Officer (Tendo Kisara): ...Okay. But before I use the mission card, you need to provide me with at least 250 points as a deposit.

The Promising Future True Lord (Zhongli): Yes, I agree to this proposal.

Police officer (Tendo Kisara): Hmm...that's good.

Future Promising True Lord (Zhongli): So, the last member of the Doomsday Group, @Golden Fairy, Miss Cortée, what's your opinion?

Golden Fairy (Corté): Mr. Zhongli, are you human?

The Promising Future True Lord (Zhongli): Hmm... According to universal truth, I am not human, but a demon god.

Golden Fairy (Corté): Mr. Zhongli, what is your purpose in coming to my world?
