Chapter 374: Bring a Few People Along While You're at It!

The group chat suddenly burst into excitement.

Boros: [Trying hard in front of Takumi is meaningless!]

Himeko: [If you want to become invincible, all you need is one lucky break.]

Sagiri: [So today's sign-in was another miss.]

Raiden Mei: [We're both Herrschers, so why is your cheat so much stronger?]

Himeko: [Takumi-kun getting stronger again is so enviable.]

...

Everyone in the chat was jealous. One after another, they began venting.

Any effort felt like a joke compared to someone with Takumi's level of luck.

Especially for those who had joined the group with him—thinking back, they were all weaklings in the beginning. And yet Takumi took off like a rocket and never slowed down.

Who would believe such a thing if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes?

It was simply absurd.

People used to scoff at the idea of someone having a "cheat," until they met Takumi.

Takumi: [So salty!!]

Seeing the messages, Takumi couldn't help but grin.

Everyone was obviously jealous.

Shiroyasha: [Who wouldn't be confused watching this??] [Are you planning to visit all the worlds under Little Garden or what?]

Who wouldn't be jealous?

Finishing in less than a year what would take others millennia.

Still, she didn't press too hard on that point.

Instead, she asked something else.

The worlds beneath Little Garden were massive.

Was Takumi seriously planning to visit them all?

Seeing her question, Takumi thought for a moment before replying.

Takumi: [No way I'm visiting them all.] [Just making a trip to the more advanced tech-based worlds.]

There was no way he could visit every single one.

With countless parallel worlds included, who knew how long that would take?

Reverse Izayoi: [While you're at it, can you toss that kid into Little Garden for me?]

The one he was referring to was Saigō Homura—his younger brother and the incarnation of Azi Dahaka.

The very one who gave him his current headphones.

Saigō Homura hadn't arrived in Little Garden yet.

But since Takumi was traveling around anyway, he could lend a hand.

Takumi: [Sure! If I come across that world, I'll send them all over.]

That included Saigō Homura, and also Ayaka Saori.

If he encountered them, he wouldn't mind helping.

After all, those worlds practically handed their entire knowledge base over to him.

As long as he found a world with the name Saigō Homura or something related to perpetual motion machines, he'd take note.

After chatting for a bit, Takumi resumed his work.

He continued collecting data from various worlds.

If a world had no value, Takumi would just dip in briefly and leave.

He didn't even bother going in fully—just scanned for resources and moved on.

And all of this was being observed by Kurimo.

She was puzzled watching Takumi run around like this.

What was this guy up to?

Just wandering aimlessly?

Her curiosity was piqued.

For the next month, Takumi continued his wandering.

Kurimo saw it all, but chose not to interfere.

She trusted Takumi had his reasons.

After a full month, Takumi finally located the world where Izayoi's people were.

Upon confirming it contained the perpetual motion tech he recognized, he hacked into the network.

Before long, he located the CANARIA Orphanage.

Once he pinpointed the location, he vanished from sight.

Then he messaged Izayoi in the chat.

Takumi: [@Izayoi, I've found your brother.] [Want me to just package up the whole CANARIA Orphanage for you?]

The orphanage was filled with talented individuals.

No wonder it was run by Canary.

Takumi figured he might as well send them all over.

Izayoi quickly replied.

Izayoi: [Thanks! Send them all my way.]

Send everyone from the CANARIA Orphanage?

Perfect.

Izayoi was fully supportive.

He had already established himself in Little Garden, so bringing his companions over was the next step.

Takumi: [OK! They're all together right now.]

Then Takumi opened a livestream.

Izayoi joined immediately.

The screen showed a place he knew well.

His eyes lit up.

Everything was just like before.

Takumi arrived at the orphanage entrance and walked in.

It didn't take long before someone noticed him.

Seeing him, everyone was stunned.

A girl poked her head out from inside.

"Who are you looking for?"

Izayoi: [That's Saori.]

He recognized her instantly.

"Hey there! I'm a friend of Izayoi's. He asked me to come."

Upon hearing this, Saori froze.

"Izayoi-nii? Really?"

Her expression brightened.

She turned and shouted back into the house.

Everyone came running.

Saigō Homura was among them.

They were all stunned to hear Takumi had come on Izayoi's behalf.

Saigō Homura frowned.

"Got any proof?"

He wasn't about to trust just anyone.

"You all can talk to him yourselves."

Takumi pulled up the chat group.

Then initiated a call with Izayoi.

Izayoi picked up immediately.

In seconds, his face appeared on screen.

"Yo! Homura, Saori, everyone."

Seeing Izayoi live stunned everyone present.

"Izayoi!!" "Big bro!" "Izayoi-nii!!"

The orphanage kids all crowded around the screen.

Everyone was overjoyed to see him again.

Izayoi had been gone for quite some time.

They never thought they'd see him again—yet here he was, sending someone to them.

"You believe me now?"

"Great, then please head back inside. I'll be sending you all over to Izayoi shortly."

Takumi looked at the emotional group and gave them clear instructions.

He had no plans to linger in this world.

After delivering them and visiting a few more places, it'd be time to return.

He had almost everything he came for.

No need to stick around any longer.
