Chapter 339: The Magic Talent of the Forest Elves Surpasses Yours!

New stuff?

Of course it was new stuff.

Freshly obtained, in fact.

Hearing Jibril's question, Takumi nodded.

"Just got it not long ago."

"Not suitable for you to use."

"The wings? Just a feature of that system."

"Eventually, all Mechanoids might have wings."

"Though most probably won't show them off."

"They might even dislike them themselves."

At this point, Takumi couldn't help but chuckle.

Right as he finished speaking, Shuvi completed constructing her Uranus System.

She turned to look at her wings.

Just as Takumi had said—

She didn't seem to like them either.

Without hesitation, she retracted them.

Bronya fell silent upon seeing this.

He was right.

"Hey!"

"Scrap metal, what are you doing?"

"Put those wings back out! I want to see them!"

But Jibril wasn't pleased at all.

She rushed to yell at Shuvi.

She hadn't gotten a good look yet—

How could Shuvi just retract them?

"I refuse."

Shuvi glanced at her coolly, then opened a portal and left without a word.

Didn't want to entertain her at all.

Watching this, Jibril was absolutely frustrated.

"Damn it!!"

So mean!

Didn't even give her a shred of face.

"Watch how you talk to her."

"You all might not be able to beat them anymore."

Takumi felt compelled to remind her.

There were quite a number of Mechanoids now.

If she spoke like that and started a fight—

She wouldn't be able to handle it.

The number of Mechanoids already far exceeded the Tenshi-types.

After all, Tenshi-types had a fixed count.

No new ones were ever born.

Jibril was the youngest of them all.

And the others were all female.

They weren't reproducing.

They didn't even like anyone enough to try.

Because of this, the Mechanoid population would only continue to grow—

While the Tenshi-types remained stagnant.

Sure, the Tenshi-types were powerful.

But the Mechanoids weren't weak either.

In fact, they had both quantity and quality.

They were incredibly strong.

Even capable of creating new units of their own.

Linking up to a network instantly.

Power could be mass-produced.

If they went into mass-production mode, they could overwhelm enemies with sheer numbers alone.

Jibril frowned hearing that.

She couldn't help but fall into thought.

She knew the Mechanoids were growing.

She had already seen this in the Tenshi-type group chat.

Ever since they arrived in Takumi's world and got online—they'd all become shut-ins.

Now they communicated only online.

Only a few still ventured out.

The data from both online sources and field reports all confirmed—

The number of Mechanoids was rapidly increasing.

People had discovered that even the regular robots in Takumi's world were transforming into Mechanoids.

That alone was terrifying.

"Tch~!"

She knew all that—

But her mouth was still as sharp as ever.

She didn't care.

Besides, it's not like a real fight would happen.

She understood that well enough.

So she didn't say more on that topic.

Instead, she turned to Takumi and said:

"I want to teach magic."

"Let me become a teacher!"

Jibril suddenly made a request to Takumi.

She wanted to teach.

Be a magic instructor.

Hearing this, Takumi paused for a moment—

Then looked at her strangely.

"Why do you want to do that?"

He said as he checked something.

He shouldn't be short on teachers, right?

Especially magic teachers.

The demon gods he'd brought back were already magic teachers.

"Because it sounds fun!"

"Since even Tenstrikes can be powered by this world's energy—"

"That means it's definitely teachable."

"So I want to teach others to use it too."

"Just imagine—thousands of mages casting Tenstrikes together. It would be an epic sight!"

Her eyes sparkled with excitement.

Clearly, she wanted to see such a scene.

"Sorry, we're not short on magic teachers right now."

"The school already has plenty."

"Even the Forest Elves have gone to teach."

"They're more professional than you."

Takumi displayed the info he had found.

Even he couldn't help but laugh a bit.

There were plenty of magic instructors around.

But it wasn't a big deal.

Because new schools were under construction.

Once Teyvat began relocating, more schools would be needed.

So even if they weren't short now, they definitely would be in the future.

Takumi also noticed something else.

Aincrad had already been cleared up to the 40th floor.

Those people were really enjoying the game.

They actually had time to clear that many levels?

And the number of visitors there was increasing.

After all, everyone loved a good training ground.

Or they went straight to the Great Jura Forest.

After reviewing some of these developments, Takumi closed the interface.

Jibril heard his reply and was instantly frustrated.

"What the heck?"

"Didn't you say you needed teachers here?"

"And those Forest Elves?!"

Just some Forest Elves...

Not as good as the Tenshi-types!

Better to let her do it!

"Fire them, fire them!!"

"Sure, their magic's decent—but I'm no worse!!"

She was confident in her magical prowess.

Just fire a few—it'd be fine!

"Sorry."

"They're all better than you!"

"The Forest Elves' magic talent far surpasses yours."

"They're valuable in other ways too."

Takumi shrugged.

There was no way he'd fire anyone.

Not in this lifetime!

Those mages were too precious.

The Forest Elf girls teaching magic? Absolutely adorable.

And they had amazing magic aptitude.

The rest of the faculty were demon gods.

Why would he lay off anyone?

Hearing this, Jibril pouted.

Clearly very displeased.

So unfair.

She just wanted to be a teacher and got turned down.

"Keep reading your books."

"I've uploaded a bunch of new stuff recently."

"Especially on magic. Go study it."

Jibri was actually easy to coax.

Hearing that, she immediately perked up.

Without another word, she started searching.

"Really?"

"Let me see!"

With that, she quieted down.

Takumi didn't pay her any more attention.

Instead, he turned his focus to the items in his hand.

The Superpower Advancement Elixir.

He'd analyze it, then toss it to Mobius for further research.

Then, there was the Random World Travel Talisman.

A ticket to a random world?
