I have no regrets about my 2D world!

"Master Zi, Master Zi, hey, Yakumo Zi, how are we going to get there?"

Seeing no response, Su Bai sat on the ground and stopped shouting.

Seeing this, Luo Tianyi also walked over and sat next to him, and asked curiously.

"Abai, do you know Sister Yakumo Yukari?"

"I know her, of course I know her. She's Yakumo Yukari, the gap monster, one of the sages who founded Gensokyo. She looks very impressive, but not long after she founded Gensokyo, she went from being a sage to being an idler. In fact, she's just a BBA who has lived for who knows how many years..."

As he spoke, a gap opened behind Su Bai, and a white jade hand stretched out and knocked on his head.

"Xiaobai, speaking ill of others behind their backs is not a good behavior. Don't do it again."

Then he retracted his hand and closed the gap.

"I know, I know, Master Zi, Sister Zi, and please don't call me Xiaobai!"

Su Bai rubbed his head and responded.

...

The other side of the gap.

Inside a shrine, a young girl in a red and white, open-armed miko costume sat, sipping tea, its dregs now dregs, her face relaxed and unconcerned with the world. But...

"Tsk, Yakumo Yukari, what are you doing here again? There hasn't been anything unusual recently."

The girl's expression suddenly changed, as if she saw a plate of British food appear in front of her.

"Ah, Reimu-chan, I missed you so much that I put down my work to come see you."

"Qi, don't I know you? You come to me when you have nothing to do. What's going on? Do you want to get beaten?"

Reimu continued speaking as if she hadn't heard what Yakumo Yukari said.

"I wouldn't mind giving you a beating."

Yakumo Yukari suddenly showed a sad expression.

"Reimu really makes me sad. I came here specifically to find you and get closer to you."

"Ugh, stop disgusting me. You should go find that pink undead of yours and get closer to her. She won't mind. If you have something to say, tell her quickly. If not, leave quickly."

Reimu's expression became even more impatient.

"Since you've said that, Reimu-chan, I won't be polite. I want you to go to the Magic Forest and bring two humans out and send them to the Human World."

"Oh, humans, there are humans that you, Yakumo Yukari, can't deal with. That's really interesting."

"Those two humans are not ordinary. My gap can't even work on them. And we are not some bad people. We can't bring ourselves to kill two humans who may not even have killed a chicken. So I can only ask you, Reimu-chan, for help."

"Alright, alright, put away that pitiful expression of yours and I'll go. Seriously, this is such a hassle."

The girl drank the tea in one gulp and let out a long sigh.

"Phew~ Take me there quickly, the shrine still needs to be cleaned up. If we're late we won't have enough time."

Yakumo Yukari smiled, and then a gap appeared under Reimu.

"Hey, hey, can't you be normal... Yakumo Yukari, just wait for me..."

"Go quickly and come back soon, Reimu-chan."

Closing the gap, Yakumo Yukari narrowed her eyes.

You who are immune to gaps will surely not remain ordinary forever. I hope you can bring some vitality to this fantasy town.

.......

"So, you are the two humans that Yakumo Yukari mentioned, right?"

The red and white figure walked in front and spoke to the two people behind.

"You two ordinary humans have been in the magic forest for so long without any trouble. You are quite lucky. There are monsters in this forest."

"Yes, Miss Reimu, I have always had good luck since I was a child."

Su Bai spread his hands and said.

He has always been lucky since he was a child. In elementary school, because he was well-behaved, the teachers were nicer to him and they would think of him first when there was anything good. In middle school, when he played games with his friends and drew cards, he would always get the rarest ones. Even in college, the aunt who served the food didn't shake her hands when it was his turn.

The only pity is that he grew up in an orphanage and started working part-time to support himself in middle school. Even the money for college was earned during the summer vacation.

"Yes, yes, Abai is really lucky. If it weren't for the fruits Abai found, we would have starved today."

Luo Tianyi also said immediately.

"Huh, fruit? What kind of fruit? You can't just eat anything in the Magic Forest. Even if they're not poisonous, some fruits contain energy that ordinary people can't withstand."

Reimu was very surprised. She knew what kind of food there was in the magic forest. For example, the black and white one ate mushrooms and fruits in the forest all day long. If Reimu and the others hadn't paid close attention to it, it might have disappeared long ago.

"What are you eating? Take it out and let me see it."

Su Bai took out the remaining fruits and handed them to Reimu.

"Tsk tsk, you guys really aren't ordinary people. Even though this fruit doesn't contain much energy, ordinary people would at least get a stomachache or something like that if they ate it, but you guys are totally fine."

Reimu took the fruit in her hand and ate it while talking. Although she was eating someone else's food without their consent, Reimu didn't seem to mind at all.

"Although I don't know what abilities you all have, but here, the weirdos are indeed more popular than normal people."

The two looked at each other in confusion after hearing this, but we really don’t have any ability.

After arriving in Gensokyo, Su Bai didn't want to live an ordinary life.

How many times have I thought in the real world about how great it would be if I had super powers? Who hasn't fantasized about suddenly turning into Superman when danger comes, and then flying out to save the world in the surprised eyes of classmates and teachers when they were in school?

But reality is reality after all, no one can have super powers. Now that I am here, how can I not want super powers? So many paper wives have become real, of course I want to get in touch with them!

Suddenly, Su Bai seemed to have thought of something. He opened his mouth to say it but then closed it again, looking very conflicted.

Reimu looked over. After all, the information she got from Yakumo Yukari, after verification just now, confirmed that they were extraordinary people, so she was also very curious about what Su Bai wanted to say at this moment.

"Why, is there anything you want to ask? I'm in a good mood now, so I can answer more of your questions."

Hearing Lingmeng say this, Su Bai became even more conflicted, but then he returned to normal, as if he had made some important decision.

"That's right, Miss Reimu, do you... have money?"

After Su Bai finished speaking, he looked at Reimu. He knew who Reimu was. In various settings, Reimu was considered one of the poor. Even when drinking tea, she would drink tea leaves for a long time, so much so that there was a legend of 100,000 Reimu in the car circle.

Legend has it that if you give Reimu 100,000 yen, she'll do anything for you. She's capable of anything, from beating up the inexplicably aged Yakumo BBA to bullying the incredibly intelligent fairy Cirno.

Even some bold ideas can be tried, of course, provided that you can withstand the consequences.

Sure enough, the relaxed expression on Reimu's face disappeared, and was replaced by a more serious face.

"I am a shrine maiden, a figure dedicated to the gods. How can I be tainted by worldly money? You are insulting my faith."

"Ms. Reimu, please don't be angry. We don't mean to insult your faith. Bai and I are new here and don't have any local currency, so we'd like to ask if you could lend us some. We promise to pay you back later."

Luo Tianyi didn't notice anything wrong. She just looked at Lingmeng's expression and thought that she was really angry, so she hurried to explain.

At this moment, Su Bai raised his hand and said weakly:

"Um... Miss Reimu, I do know a little bit about the situation in Gensokyo, like how the Scarlet Devil Mansion is wealthy and powerful, while the Hakurei Shrine is poor and destitute."

Su Bai hadn't expected Reimu to react so strongly. Perhaps the setting he'd been familiar with wasn't entirely consistent with reality. The previous Zi Ma hadn't been as ferocious as depicted, so perhaps the Reimu before him wasn't quite so shameless? ...probably.

But then he killed the idea.

"So you knew, huh? If you had said so earlier, I wouldn't have pretended. It's a waste of expression. Yeah, I'm broke, so what? There are a bunch of youkai in Gensokyo running into my shrine every day, scaring the people of the human world away from coming here. Not only do they not put money in the coin box, they're also eating and drinking for free here. If they keep going like this, the shrine won't be able to stay open."

Reimu was also helpless. Those monsters were everywhere, and she couldn't drive them away, nor did she need to fight them. They would come to the shrine from time to time to hold banquets or something. Although she could get food for free, they didn't pay, and she had to clean up after every banquet.

If I hadn't been able to take on some commissions to earn some money, I would have starved to death long ago.

Thinking of this, Reimu's little face returned to its previous appearance, but the happy expression was gone.

Just as I was about to say something, I noticed Su Bai next to me whispering.

"I want money, I want money..."

Reimu had an expression on her face as if she was looking at someone crazy.

Chapter 3 God, please respond to me!

"Hey, what are you doing? If that was any use, I would have filled the purse box."

Legend has it that when a person's desire is strong enough, the gods will cast their gaze upon him and respond to his expectations.

"I didn't believe it before, but... now that I'm here, I think I can give it a try. What if a god really takes a fancy to me?"

"Abai, are you really okay?"

Luo Tianyi also looked at him with concern.

Su Bai was still reciting there.

"Um, Miss Reimu, is there a doctor here?" Luo Tianyi turned her head and looked at Reimu.

"Although... although I haven't known Abai for long, he is indeed a good person. If there is really something wrong with his brain, I am still willing to take him to see a doctor. After all..."

Just when Luo Tianyi and Ling Meng were discussing taking Su Bai to see a doctor, they heard a voice coming from Su Bai's side.

"Holy crap! They actually gave me money!"

Luo Tianyi turned her head and saw that there were indeed two walnut-sized golden objects in his hands. Could it be...

Su Bai was very excited at the moment. He didn't expect it to really appear. He just saw that the atmosphere was a bit serious before, so he diverted his attention. Unexpectedly, it really succeeded.

"Which god is watching me?"

"Kanako? Frog? Could it be Mrs. Shinki..."

"Forget it, any one is fine. As long as you give me money, I will trust you forever. Reimu, now we have money, Reimu..."

Su Bai looked at Ling Meng, but found that Ling Meng was in the same state as before, and was also saying: I want money... I want money...

The corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

"Don't disturb me. It must be because I'm not pious enough, so the gods haven't responded to me yet. As long as my faith is a little stronger, the gods will definitely respond to me."

"By the way, which god were you thinking about just now? Tell me so I can believe in him."

Su Bai was speechless when he saw Reimu's expression as if she would believe in anyone as long as they could give her money.

He had just thought of the Three Pure Ones, the Jade Emperor, the God of Wealth, Buddha, Bodhisattva, etc. He didn't know how many of them he had thought of. Who would know which one it was, and he didn't even know if it was true.

"Even if a god saw you like this, he wouldn't pay any attention to you. Besides, the god in your shrine would cry."

"I don't even know who the god is at my shrine, so it doesn't matter."

Reimu also looked nonchalant. She'd heard about a deity since her ancestors were Hakurei shrine maidens, but she'd never seen one, nor heard anything about him from anywhere else. Perhaps he was long gone. But the shrine was inherited from her ancestors, so it had to continue.

"So how did you make this? And why is it gold and not banknotes?"

"I'm not sure either. I was just thinking about money, money... and then..."

“And then it came out like this.”

Su Bai looked at his palm thoughtfully. The two pieces on it had turned into three pieces.

"As for why it's gold, maybe in my impression, gold is a circulating currency. Things like banknotes are generally restricted to certain regions and may not be usable here, so gold is what came out. Could it be..."

Thinking of this, Su Bai stretched out his other hand.

What I want to eat is an apple.

As soon as the thought appeared, a bright red apple appeared in the palm of his hand, emitting an attractive luster.

Is that really the case?

"I seem to be able to directly materialize the objects I imagine in my mind, but there are some limitations. For example, gold seems to be unable to materialize at the moment, but apples and the like seem to be able to materialize forever."

Su Bai took a bite of the apple that had just materialized and said to Reimu and the others.

"Directly materialize? Another abnormal ability."

Reimu looked at her as if she remembered something, with a hint of disgust in her tone, but then turned it into thought.

"The limitation might be due to insufficient energy. You can sense whether your energy can be restored slowly. As for your ability... I think it's probably due to the fruit you ate earlier."

"The energy contained in that fruit caused your body's inherent energy to flow, allowing you to use your current manifestation abilities. However, since you've already awakened your abilities, do you feel anything special?"

As Lingmeng spoke, she looked at Luo Tianyi who was standing beside her, and Su Bai also looked over.
