Chapter 279: From Today On, Call Me Shokuhou

After handing the terminals to the girls, takumi put them back into the space bracelet.

Once everything was settled, takumi messaged Yuu in the chat group.

takumi: [@Yuu, ping ping.]

Seeing his message, Yuu was puzzled.

Takumi had been contacting her more frequently lately. Was there something he wanted her to do again?

Yuu: [What is it?]

takumi: [Exclusive red packet for Yuu] [I'm entrusting them to you. Please settle them in my villa.] [Prometheus will take care of everything later.]

Takumi sent over the space bracelet directly.

Seeing the message, Yuu was speechless.

Receiving more things from him again?

She mumbled to herself but accepted it anyway.

Avrora and the others, huh?

Yuu: [Got it.]

After saying so in the group, she closed the chat and began making arrangements.

Fujiwara Chika: [Hiding lolis in a golden house?] [(ΩДΩ)]

As expected, those must be the vessels that Izayoi gave to takumi, right?

takumi: [They're old enough to be your great-great-grandmothers!!] [What nonsense are you spouting!!]

They may look like lolis, but their souls are those of mature women!

Fujiwara Chika: [Tch~!] [Still, you're hiding lolis. That's a crime, you know?]

That's illegal!!

takumi: [In my world, my word is law!] [Who dares accuse this official in my own court?]

Takumi laughed as he read Chika's messages.

Fujiwara Chika: [￣へ￣] [Things are almost wrapped up on our side too.] [We've found everyone we needed. The rest can fend for themselves.] [Some of them aren't exactly good people~!]

She didn't continue bickering with takumi and instead reported her progress.

takumi: [We're almost there too.] [Everything's ready—just waiting for the fusion.]

With all preparations complete, they just needed to wait patiently.

Fujiwara Chika: [Mission complete, so I'm heading home!] [Lend me a space bracelet!!]

Now that her mission was done and she had enough points, it was time to bring her family over.

And also Kaguya and Hayasaka.

As for others? Forget it.

Takumi chuckled—looks like she had made her decision.

takumi: [@Megumi Kato @Asuna Yuuki, what about you two?]

Now that Chika had decided, only those two remained.

Megumi Kato: [Count me in.]

Asuna Yuuki: [Give me one too.]

They had already made their decisions.

They wanted to bring their parents over.

Complete immigration.

If any relatives or friends wanted to come, they'd bring them too.

They'd deal with the rest later.

Seeing this, takumi didn't hesitate and lent them the items.

Currently, they didn't have enough points to buy a space bracelet outright.

So borrowing from takumi was the only option.

Using it temporarily was fine.

After sending the red packets, takumi added a few more messages.

takumi: [Don't forget—bring over Kasumigaoka Utaha and Eriri! I've admired them for ages!!] [Asuna, remember to bring Sinon!!] [Chika, don't forget Hayasaka.]

He made sure to remind them.

Seeing his messages, the girls were speechless.

Bronya: [You're not even trying to hide it anymore, huh?]

Bronya was utterly speechless.

Asking people to bring their families was one thing,

but now friends too? Name-dropping like that—why not just say you want them?

Fujiwara Chika: [emm...]

Megumi Kato: [We'll try... Please don't pressure me!!] [No guarantees!!]

Asuna Yuuki: [Alright, I'll give it a try. Sinon shouldn't be a problem?]

Their reactions varied,

but it probably wouldn't be an issue.

Bringing friends over was fine too.

Once they immigrated, they'd all be fellow villagers.

Oh right—takumi had already brought quite a few people from their worlds before.

So they might find some familiar faces.

takumi: [I don't just want them. I want Ikaros, Kanade, Tifa, Alice, Kurumi...]

He didn't just want them—he really wanted them.

Seeing his pervy confession, the whole chat went silent.

Houraisan Kaguya: [So you're saying Touhou has zero presence!!] [You truly are the worst!!]

takumi: [Touhou? I already have them in my world.]

Nonsense! How could they lack presence?

They were already in his world!

Saten Ruiko: [Alright, alright, enough!] [@takumi, if you have time, come to my world!!] [I'm really being targeted.]

Saten Ruiko, who hadn't participated in the mission, finally spoke up.

She really wanted takumi to visit her world.

Seeing her message, takumi laughed.

takumi: [What now?] [Did the bald guy come after you?]

Did Aleister finally go after her?

Or was it something else?

Saten Ruiko: [QAQ So many research facilities want to use me as a lab rat!!!] [Even the dark side's targeting me.]

She recently discovered she'd been marked by the dark side.

She never expected to attract this much attention.

takumi: [Lol!] [Should I send the War God to help you out?] [He'd love the chance!]

Takumi found her situation amusing.

Maybe Aleister really did target her.

Or maybe it was just a test?

How about sending the War God over?

shiroyasha: [I support this!!] [Sending the War God sounds fun!!] [I can even toss in a few dragons!!] [That world is really interesting.] [The power gaps are insane—super strong ones who destroy worlds like it's nothing, and the rest are weak as hell. It's like a cliff between them.] [Maybe if we send the War God or some dragons over, they might gain boosts?] [takumi, want to try sending some Dragonkin too?]

Shiroyasha was very intrigued.

She'd looked into that world and found it bizarre.

She was curious what would happen if high-level species were dropped in.

Saten Ruiko: [Are you trying to get me killed?] [No way!!] [I refuse!!]

No thanks!

If the War God came over, it'd trigger a world war!

And Dragonkin too?

The demon gods might have to step in personally.

She might die a hundred times without knowing why.

So, no thank you!

takumi: [Let's talk after I finish my tasks.] [I'm really curious about Aiwass.] [Oh, and Misaki Shokuhou too!!] [From now on, call me Shokuhou.]

In that case, it's settled.

The angels of a purely physical law-based world—

That's pretty fascinating.

And many of takumi's current powers are the ultimate expression of physical laws anyway.
