"It's just a small amount of money. Believe me, you will gain much more valuable things from this relationship in the future."
......
In a blink of an eye, two and a half days passed.
During this period, another major event occurred in the world of spells. Makima, a high-ranking figure in the world of spells, a Tokyo regional spellcaster and head of the General Council, and previously a first-class spellcaster, submitted an application to become a special-class spellcaster.
With the unanimous approval of the top brass in the world of sorcery, and the guarantee of two special-grade sorcerers, Seele and Gojo Satoru, it was confirmed that Makima possessed the strength of a special-grade sorcerer. Therefore, with the approval of the General Directors' Council, Makima was officially promoted to the sixth special-grade sorcerer in the world of sorcery.
For a moment, the entire magic world of middle and low-level magicians was shocked again.
You know, apart from the special-grade sorcerer Geto Suguru who defected from the sorcery world to become a curse caster a few years ago, the sorcery world currently has five special-grade sorcerers, Gojo Satoru, Kuruki Kujuku, Otsutsuki Yuta, Seele, and Makima.
Looking back over the years, this is undoubtedly the most prosperous period for their entire magic world, and their magic world is visibly flourishing!
It's almost noon in Ginza, downtown Tokyo.
On this commercial street, which is known as the most prosperous and expensive in Asia, a black luxury car is parked on the side of the road.
As the car door slowly opened, Makima, who had rarely taken off her work clothes and changed into casual clothes, got out of the car.
She was wearing a white women's shirt, black women's trousers, and a pair of black high-heeled shoes with gold soles. She lacked the seriousness and earnestness she had at work, but still exuded the temperament of a superior. With her beautiful face, passers-by couldn't help but look at her sideways.
Behind Makima were Kasumi Miwa and Momo Nishimiya, who were wearing the same suits and following Makima.
"Um, Lady Makima, is it really okay for us to be out like this during work hours?"
Sanlun Xia asked Makima a little nervously.
For this honest girl, she may have never even lied to anyone in her daily life. Skipping work with her boss during work hours like she did now was really beyond her expectations.
Although Lady Makima now serves as both a special-grade sorcerer and the head of the General Council, and is also in charge of all matters related to sorcerers in Tokyo, and can be said to have the final say in the entire Tokyo, and can shake the entire sorcery world with just a stomp of her feet, Sanlun Kasumi still feels that this is not a good thing.
"I've already arranged all the work for the Directors' Meeting. I don't need to be involved in the subsequent work. So, I have to make good use of the freed-up time."
Makima said with a smile on her face.
"Okay, let's go over there first. It looks like the person we're waiting for hasn't arrived yet."
In this way, the three women with different styles stood on the street and waited for nearly ten minutes.
Finally, a voice came from a distance.
"I'm sorry, I'm a little late. I hope I didn't keep you waiting too long."
An Xiu walked forward and greeted the three of them.
Of course, everyone's attention was mainly focused on Makima, who had changed her style of dress.
Chapter 42: An Xiu's Concept, System Update Completed
In a large shopping mall, Kasumi Miwa and Tao Nishimiya beside her were each holding a cup of milk tea, following Anxiu and Makima from a distance.
To be honest, they didn't expect that after becoming Makima's guards, the first time they accompanied their leader out would be on a date.
This should be a date, right? After all, taking time out on a weekday to go shopping with someone of the opposite sex, what else could it be but a date?
Miwa Kasumi and Nishimiya Tao still have some impression of Anxiu, the man who always appears with Lady Seele and seems to live with Lady Seele. His strength is said to be at the level of a first-class sorcerer. Although he is not as good as the special-level one like Lady Makima, he is still very powerful.
However, An Xiu, who often appears as Seele's pendant, does not have a high presence in the world of magic, so the two girls only have this impression of An Xiu. This is also due to the fact that An Xiu had appeared at the exchange meeting between the two schools before, so the two girls specifically asked about him.
Before An Xiu arrived, they would never have thought that the person Lord Machima came out to look for this time was actually him.
They also thought that a woman like Lady Makima, who was usually rude to the opposite sex around her, was very serious and responsible at work, and held a high position, would never have an intimate relationship with any man.
However, this is Lady Makima's private matter after all. As minor characters, they obviously have no reason and no right to interfere, so all they can do is silently wish her well in their hearts.
Thinking of this, Sanlun Xia took a sip of the milk tea in her hand, and then showed an intoxicated expression.
"Ah, milk tea is delicious. I've never had it before. It's really sweet. My friends didn't lie to me."
Although it was a bit difficult to say, due to the family's financial situation in the past, although Sanlun Xia had heard of milk tea, a drink that was very popular among women, she had never been able to try it. This was her first time to drink milk tea.
"Xia, that's too much."
Xigong Tao on the side looked a little helpless, but didn't say much. Instead, she took a sip of the milk tea in her hand in the same good mood.
After all, Machima-sama even took them with him on dates. What did this mean? It meant that Machima-sama valued them, not as small characters to be recruited casually, but as his own people.
Even the milk tea in their hands was bought for them by Lady Makima. Lady Makima was so kind to them. No wonder everyone in the Directors' Council was so respectful to Lady Makima.
However, the two girls obviously didn't know that while they were praising Makima in their minds and whispering to each other, Makima, who was walking in front of them, was also whispering to Anxiu.
"What does the master think of these two children?"
Makima asked Anxiu in a low voice with a faint smile on her face.
"Don't talk like you're trafficking people. How did you find them?"
"After all, they were characters that appeared in the original plot, and they were all very cute girls, so I used some means to recruit them to be my bodyguards."
"Why, Master doesn't like it?"
An Xiu shook his head at this.
"Of course I wouldn't say I don't like her. After all, she's a female character I really liked when I watched anime in my previous life. I like her for sure, but I don't like her to the point where I have to get her."
In other words, after the existence of the clone, although An Xiu still likes the various two-dimensional beauties that he liked in his previous life, he no longer has the fanatical feeling of liking them to the point of calling them wife at every turn.
On the contrary, after becoming real characters, these two-dimensional female characters seemed a bit troublesome in An Xiu's eyes compared to their clones.
Not to mention the various complex character settings, the conflicts between characters with different personalities are even more headache-inducing.
An Xiu is a very greedy and philanthropic person. If he really travels to the two-dimensional world, he will definitely start a harem if he has the ability. After all, he is the kind of person who wants all the bad guys as long as he likes them.
But how many of the original characters would accept such an idea? Even if An Xiu truly possessed magical powers, able to capture characters and have them reluctantly accept him, he would have to simultaneously capture new characters and appease the old ones, with the risk of a complete setback if he wasn't careful. Furthermore, the conflicts between these different characters would bring with them a host of other problems, the mere thought of which made his scalp tingle.
In contrast, the clone materialized by the system can accept his ideas without causing conflicts with each other. Most importantly, it has a mutual understanding with An Xiu, so he does not need to think too much when getting along with it on a daily basis, unlike dealing with outsiders who need to pay attention to various issues.
Unless they were running buddies where there was no need to take any responsibility, no matter how perfect the 2D girl was, she would not be as good as the clone in An Xiu's eyes.
"To put it bluntly, the Master likes them and cares about their feelings. He feels that he must take responsibility once a relationship has taken place. At the same time, he believes that no one other than us clones would be able to accept the Master's ideas, so he resists the characters he originally liked."
"From this perspective, at least the master isn't a scumbag."
Makima knew Anxiu's thoughts very clearly. After all, these clones not only had the memories of the original characters, but also the memories of Anxiu himself.
It can be said that every clone materialized by An Xiu, whether it is Xier or Makima, understands An Xiu as well as he does himself. They are generally aware of An Xiu's preferences, XP, and even the reactions and thoughts that will appear in various situations.
The reason why it is roughly clear is because people change. After all, these clones only have the memory of An Xiu himself from the moment he created them.
Therefore, Makima, who could easily see through the essence of things, knew from the beginning that Anxiu did not dislike the "gift" she brought this time, but was worried that the gift itself would be unacceptable, and she did not want to hurt those characters she had liked in her previous life.
"Master, rest assured about this. People's ideas can be easily changed. Just because they can't accept something now doesn't mean they won't accept it in the future."
"If the master wants to stick to the bottom line, he can wait patiently until the day when they are willing to accept the master."
"Until then, just pretend these two lovely children don't exist."
Hearing Machima's suggestion, Anxiu nodded.
Indeed, in the final analysis, whether to accept it or not depends entirely on his own body. He has no idea in this regard now, so just pretend that it doesn't happen.
In this way, Anxiu and Makima strolled leisurely in this large shopping mall, buying some things they liked from time to time.
Suddenly, a prompt sounded in An Xiu's ears.
"Ding! The system's 72-hour online update has ended, and new features have been enabled. Please check it yourself."
...
PS: There is another chapter before 6 o'clock.
Chapter 43: Crossing Mechanism and Three New Worlds, Mall Discount Area Refresh
"Has the system been updated?"
Hearing the prompt sound in his ear, An Xiu looked at Makima beside him and did not choose to check immediately.
After all, there are so many people around now, so I'd better wait until I get back to see what new features there are after the system update.
In this way, Anxiu and Makima continued to stroll in the mall. During this time, Makima not only did some shopping herself, but also matched several men's clothes for Anxiu.
In this regard, An Xiu's taste was definitely not as good as Makima's, so he just accepted it and watched Makima swipe the card in the surprised eyes of the shopping guide, successfully gaining the envious and jealous eyes of a group of male compatriots passing by.
After shopping, Anxiu and Makima had lunch together outside and visited several famous attractions in Tokyo. They bought whatever they liked and Makima paid for all the expenses.
For Makima, who now dominates the upper echelons of the entire sorcery world, the so-called money is really just a string of numbers. After all, in the original work, it is said that the Zenin family, one of the three great families, has 500 million Youyun and 10 billion Fushiguro. The head of the Zenin family can take out 1 billion in liquid funds as he says, with a relaxed look on his face and no sign of any effort at all. The funds that Makima, who dominates the upper echelons of the entire sorcery world, can mobilize will only be higher than this.
......
In the evening, after sending Anxiu back to the villa, Makima said goodbye to Anxiu and returned to the general manager's office with Miwa Kasumi and Nishimiya Momo following behind her.
An Xiu, who finally returned home, opened the system interface and checked the new features after the system update.
As soon as he opened the system, the first thing that appeared in An Xiu's eyes was an update announcement.
【System Version 2.0 Update Announcement】
1. Adjust the system point acquisition ratio. The points obtained by daily eating gigolo behavior will be increased. At the same time, a multiplier mechanism will be added. If you eat gigolo behavior with a female character with a higher comprehensive score, the point reward triggered will be additionally increased according to the score of the character.
2. A new world crossing function has been added. Whenever the host accumulates a certain amount of points, he will get a chance to open a new world. After opening the new world, the host and the host's clone can freely travel between different worlds.
3. Added a resurrection mechanism. When the clone dies, the host can revive the clone after 24 hours. When the host dies, the surviving clone can revive the host after 24 hours.
Looking at the updated content on the announcement, An Xiu touched his chin.
The first one is the multiplier mechanism. The points obtained from daily gigolo behavior will be increased, and the points obtained from gigoloing with female characters with higher ratings will be additionally increased.
"System, how is this score calculated?"
"Ding, the rating of female characters will be calculated based on multiple factors including their appearance, strength, power, wealth, status, etc. The more outstanding the female character is in these aspects, the higher the rating will be."
"What if a female character's rating is low at the beginning, but she gains greater strength, power, wealth, and status later on? Will her rating increase?"
"Ding! The rating will change in real time, depending on the character's current situation."
"understood."
After listening to the system's explanation, An Xiu nodded, and then continued to look at the updated content.
There's nothing much to say about the resurrection mechanics. Perhaps it's because the system saw him lying down so much that it gave him a special insurance policy? Pretty thoughtful.
Right now, An Xiu is more concerned about the time-travel function.
After exiting the update announcement, An Xiu saw at a glance that among the many functional options of the system, there was a new interface marked as "World".
Click to enter the new interface, and a map page with an infinite void background, somewhat similar to some war criminal games that An Xiu played in his previous life, appeared in front of An Xiu.
At this moment, there was only one lit green dot on the entire map, indicating Anxiu's current location, and next to it was the words "Jujutsu Kaisen" world.
Apart from that, the entire page is pitch black, with only an option to open a new world in the upper right corner. The number marked on the option is 1, and there is a progress bar on the side with 50 points displayed on it. At this time, the progress is zero.
"Can I continue to accumulate 500,000 points and gain the right to open a new world?"
Looking at this concise page, An Xiu immediately understood what it meant.
The number of times a new world can be opened is one. Is it given for free after the update, or is it given after accumulating 100,000 points?
If it is the former, it means that each time a new world is opened, only 500,000 points need to be accumulated. If it is the latter, it means that the accumulated points required to obtain each subsequent new world opening will increase exponentially.
"But there's no point in thinking about this now. Five hundred thousand points is probably enough for me to save for a while. For now, let's just open a new world and take a look."
Click on the "Open New World" option in the upper right corner, and suddenly three new light spots appear on the system page not far from the Jujutsu Kaisen world where Anxiu is currently.
There is no doubt that these three spots of light represent three new worlds.
Click on the light spot, and the information belonging to these three worlds appears in front of An Xiu.
There are only three new worlds: [Arknights], [One Punch Man], and [Looking for Encounters in the Dungeon].
“So these are the three worlds.”
Looking at the three spots of light in front of him that represented the new world, An Xiu fell into deep thought.
Compared to Jujutsu Kaisen, a world with low overall combat power and obvious level, the three worlds in front of us are undoubtedly much more profound.
Among them, Arknights World is a two-dimensional mobile game that An Xiu played in his previous life. It tells the story of an organization called Rhodes Island saving the land in a super cesspool called Terra.
Overall, the strength level is not too high. Although it is much stronger than the world of curse where An Xiu is now, it is not ridiculously strong. Of course, this is just on the surface.
In fact, there are a lot of world-destroying crises in the background. In addition to the Originium that is clearly visible, there are also Hai Si, demons, and lumberjacks, each of whom has unique skills.
As for One Punch Man, there is no need to mention it. The final villain in each chapter is basically a star-level villain, and there is also a god whose strength is unknown but definitely not weak. Fortunately, with the protagonist Saitama, there is no need to worry about any real world-destroying crisis.
