In this anime crossover, who stole my module?

Just as the snow was falling, my mind was unsettled.

It was at this time.

Suddenly, an inopportune sound emanated from Yukino's flat stomach.

……

Gulu...

After a moment of surprise, Natsume Ryo quickly realized what was happening and turned to look.

"..."

Meeting Natsume Ryo's gaze, Yukino Yukinoshita snapped out of her daze, then suddenly realized the source of the voice. Her body stiffened instantly, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to disappear from this humiliating place.

"Yukinoshita-kun, your body is much more honest than your mouth."

So, stop trying to be strong.

"..."

Upon hearing Natsume Ryo's words, Yukino Yukinoshita was torn between her inner turmoil and her own conscience.

In the end, he nodded and accepted.

after all.

If this trend continues, we'll be struggling to get by on just one sandwich a day.

Yukino Yukinoshita had no doubt that if she continued to starve herself, she would eventually faint from low blood sugar.

That scene would probably be even more embarrassing than it is now.

With this in mind, Yukino Yukinoshita could only try to convince herself to accept it.

"To reiterate, I just don't want to waste food."

"Yes, yes, I know."

Upon hearing this, Natsume Ryo nodded in agreement, his tone conveying a clear "I understand" meaning.

This made Yukino Yukinoshita feel slightly embarrassed, and she had to keep a straight face.

"..."

This is the end.

A strange silence fell over the rooftop.

Because Natsume Ryo forced him to finish the remaining food.

Rikka Takanashi wrinkled her little face and slowly ate the last few pieces of tomato in her bento box, her cheeks bulging, looking just like an unwilling squirrel.

After her initial embarrassment, Yukino Yukinoshita gradually relaxed, taking small bites of the rice ball in her bento box, and occasionally glancing at Ryo Natsume.

……

"Then Yukinoshita-san."

"What is it that you came all this way to see me about?"

After finishing his lunch, Natsume Ryo put down his chopsticks and casually put the two empty bento boxes back into his inventory.

"All."

"you sure?"

"Some things, once you know them, you can never go back."

"Like Pandora's box, once opened, what is released may not be the hope you want to see."

Upon hearing this, Natsume Ryo calmly gazed at Yukino Yukinoshita.

"I am sure."

Yukino Yukinoshita answered with a firm gaze and without hesitation.

She has never been the type of person who would choose to run away from the unknown out of fear.

Even if this "unknown" will far exceed her previous understanding.

But in Yukino's eyes...

--precisely.

It is precisely because of the unknown that we need to be bold in exploring it.

It is precisely ignorance that generates many negative emotions such as fear of the unknown.

That's why, after experiencing all sorts of bizarre events these past few days, Yukino Yukinoshita is still eager to understand the more real side of this world.

……

【Ding! 】

[The holder, Yukino Yukinoshita, has developed an intense thirst for knowledge about her host!]

[Activation conditions met!]

[Mod: Twilight Forest - Activated Successfully!]

[Loading module data... Loading complete!]

Chapter 91 Twilight Forest Module Activated, Yukinoshita's House is Unremarkable

coming!

A series of crisp system notification sounds rang in Natsume Ryo's mind.

Another module has been activated!

And it's the famous [Twilight Forest Mod]!

A barely perceptible glint flashed in Natsume Ryo's eyes as his mind instantly sank into the semi-transparent virtual inventory interface.

Sure enough, in the mod list, the previously grayed-out icon for the [Twilight Forest Mod] was now fully lit up, radiating a deep and mysterious green light.

[Twilight Forest Mod]...

He knows this stuff very well!

In my past life, when I played Minecraft, this was one of the must-have large-scale adventure mods.

A variety of fantastical creatures, bizarre terrains, and challenging bosses...

A faint smile curved at the corners of Natsume Ryo's lips.

It seems that the days ahead won't be boring.

Natsume Ryo's mind stirred slightly, and he clicked on it.

Brand new item category labels are springing up like mushrooms after rain, carrying a strong sense of fantasy.

Click to open.

A row of brand-new item icons, imbued with a strong fantasy theme, emerged.

【Twilight Forest Portal Structure Cube (Core Item)】: Once built and activated, it opens a permanent portal to the "Twilight Forest" dimension.

[Hydra Monster Egg], [Naga Monster Egg], [Lich King Monster Egg], [Ice Queen Monster Egg]...

A long list of monster eggs, including those of famous boss-level creatures in the Twilight Forest mod of Minecraft, are neatly arranged under the category of "Monster Eggs".

In addition, there are items such as the [Magic Map (Twilight Forest Exclusive)], [Life Amulet], [Transformation Dust], [Blazing Iron Ingot], [Peacock Feather Fan], [Moonlight Worm Queen], etc.

A wide variety of unique props, materials, and weapons are available, greatly enriching the inventory.

"Tsk, quite a lot of stuff."

"There's just too little that's useful."

Natsume Ryo's gaze swept quickly across the area, and he made up his mind.

Only the [Twilight Forest Portal Structure Cube (Core Item)] is something I can use to travel to the Twilight Forest sometime in the future.

……

After Natsume Ryo inspected the abundant items brought by activating the [Twilight Forest Module],

Natsume Ryo raised his eyes.

I saw.

Yukino Yukinoshita was staring intently at him, her usually calm blue eyes, like an icy lake, now surging with emotion, clearly eager for an answer to all the inexplicable things that had happened to her these past few days.

"Really want to know?"

"alright."

Yukino Yukinoshita pursed her beautifully shaped lips, not answering immediately. However, her slightly furrowed brows already revealed her attitude.

Natsume Ryo didn't keep everyone in suspense, but he did reveal why Yukino Yukinoshita was chosen.

After much deliberation, I decided it would be better to have the perpetrator recount the cause of the incident himself.

then.

With a slight thought, Natsume Ryo activated the [/tp] command.

【/tpe【name=Cat Demon】~~~】

next second.

The once empty rooftop now shows subtle shifts in light and shadow.

"Meow—!!"

"M-Master! This little demon knows its mistake! This little demon really knows its mistake, meow!"

"Please, sir, don't throw this little demon into the sky anymore, meow! This little demon has a fear of heights, meow!"

A piercing meow suddenly rang out!

A petite black figure appeared out of thin air above the rooftop. Due to the sudden teleportation, she lost her balance and rolled around on the ground several times before finally coming to a stop.

"—!"

"Wow! What...what is this?!"

This sudden scene startled Rikka Takanashi, who immediately hid behind Ryo Natsume, only daring to peek out half her head, looking at the black cat that had fallen and was in a daze with surprise and uncertainty.

Yukino Yukinoshita was also completely taken aback.

……

"Meow?!"

"How did I end up here all of a sudden?!"

When the cat demon realized that it hadn't fallen from a height of 10,000 meters, it felt a little relieved.

Not long after, it saw Natsume Ryo's face, which had a half-smile.

Without the slightest hesitation, the cat demon, who had been completely bewildered just a second ago, suddenly sprang to attention and scrambled to Natsume Ryo's feet on all fours.

"M-Master...what are your orders, meow..."

"Just say the word, and this little demon will brave mountains of knives and seas of fire without hesitation!"

After the cat demon finished speaking, it immediately rubbed its fluffy little head against Natsume Ryo's trouser leg, making an extremely fawning "purr" sound in its throat, and wagging its tail like a rattle drum, its posture extremely humble.

"..."

"Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo—!"

"The Evil King's True Eye has detected it! This pitch-black demonic beast is shrouded in an ominous demonic aura! It must be a demon from beyond the invisible boundary!"

"Wow! You're amazing! You even have a demon as your familiar?!"

Upon seeing this scene, Rikka Takanashi's eyes lit up instantly. She slightly opened her cherry-pink mouth and excitedly approached, muttering incantations as she circled around the terrified cat demon.

"..."

Yukino Yukinoshita was stunned on the spot.

She stared blankly at the black cat that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere, then looked at Natsume Ryo.
