Dragon Ball: Saiyan's Gourmet Journey

Chapter 514: Crystal Palace Happiness Status Trap, Qingmei is no match for the Heavenly Descendant
Shizuka Nanahoshi was very happy to have the chance to recover her memories again. In the 52nd week, she worked even harder to get herself into a higher level of happiness.

This somewhat affected her research on anti-summoning magic, but it didn't matter, because as long as the output of happiness points could keep up, she would have plenty of time.

Since the 51st week, the Broaishi Adventure Team also started its adventure in the six-sided world, but in the 52nd week, there was one more member among the adventuring members, making the team a five-member team of Broaishi Seven.

Gileno did not come along because her occupation overlapped with Alice's. In order for Alice to have a better adventure experience, she stayed in Buena Village as a watchdog.

As for Broly, although he has some overlaps, most of the time he will not take the initiative to take action. Taking risks requires danger to be called an adventure. If he is the only one who takes action to deal with the dangers encountered in the adventure, then for others it is not an adventure, but a simple win.

Therefore, the main combat members of this team are Alice, Roxy and Sylphy. Of course, in the 52nd week, Nanahoshi Shizuka was added.

This girl from another world is not good at swordsmanship and isn't very good at magic either, but she is good at researching magic tools.

In order to increase the output of happiness points, she always tries to get along with Broly's family actively, and she has done it through her own efforts, but as a magic item master, she joined the Broly adventure team.

"I feel like the Adventurer's Guild in this world should give Qixing a new profession."

Alice said this while taking a break after exploring a maze.

"what occupation?"

The others looked over with some curiosity.

"Battle magic item master."

Alice said out loud the name of the profession which she felt was very appropriate.

"Oh, I don't like fighting."

Nanahiroshi Shizuka, who was resting next to the large backpack she brought with her, said hurriedly.

"Talking about fighting is too biased, Alice. Qixing is much more quiet than you. When she is at home, she often reads books."

Luo Qixi said.

"People who like to read should be called scholars."

Sylphy took over the conversation, and she also liked reading.

When he followed Loki to Lanoa Magic University for academic exchanges on imperial water magic, he was asked by his mentor Jinus, who was Loki's former teacher, whether he wanted to become a knowledgeable magic scholar in the future.

"So, the correct profession should be Magical Item Scholar."

Just like that, after an expedition to the maze, during the casual chat of Team 7 of Bloesch, it was revealed that Shizuka Nanaboshi had a new, unofficial profession, "Magic Tool Scholar".

However, the name of this profession is a bit difficult to pronounce, so it later became the abbreviated version of [Magic Scholar].

This is a profession that uses the knowledge in the mind and external materials such as money to convert into combat effectiveness and thus serve oneself.

But unless you are someone like her who has a lot of wealth at your disposal, most people cannot afford this extremely expensive career of researching various magic props and producing finished props.

And based on the tricky summoning of water elements, Nanahoshi Shizuka, a magic scholar who mostly relies on external objects, has a strength that fluctuates between the superior and emperor levels.

If she can research and develop the creation of god-level magic tools in the future, she can then claim that she is a god-level master.

The career prospects are very bright, but there are hundreds of millions of dollars to burn, and the income obtained from the knowledge of other worlds every month cannot be retained at all.

They often get the money at the beginning of the month and fall into a financial deficit at the end of the month. If it weren't for the food and drink provided by Broly's family, Shizuka Nanahoshi suspected that she might starve to death because of her research.

Of course, this is just an exaggeration. In fact, if Broly didn't serve as a backup, she wouldn't spend money so lavishly to research magical items and weapons such as the rock cannon pistol, frost grenade, and fireblast crossbow.

It is worth mentioning that the ability to research these things is not only the credit of Shizuka Nanahoshi herself, but also the reincarnated fellow countryman Rudeus has made a significant contribution.

For example, providing ideas and assisting in the research and development of these magic tools.

. . . .

Time quickly came to the 53rd week.

In March of the 420th year of the Ankylosaur calendar, when the Broaishi team was adventuring in the Continent of Heaven.

On the 5th, Broly suddenly ran over and told Shizuka Nanahiroshi a good news.

"Qixing, the happiness points you produced have paid for themselves!"

This was good news, but after actually hearing it, Shizuka Nanahashi didn't feel very happy.

Instead, it was like she was having fun and someone suddenly poured a bucket of ice water on her head, causing her to stop in her tracks and stand there in a daze.

The reason for this is nothing else but the fact that she wants to get her money back carries a sense of alienation, which means that although she joined the Crystal Palace as a wife, her essence was just to preserve her memories, and she was not willing to be someone else's wife.

"What's wrong, Qixing? The happiness points you produced have paid for themselves. Aren't you happy?"

Broly noticed the abnormality belonging to Nanahiroshi Shizuka on the Crystal Palace panel and couldn't help but ask.

"No, I'm glad..."

This is a lie. The amount of happiness points gained often proves the depth of one's happiness. When a girl has integrated into the family, is able to laugh, cry, and empathize with the family, and live harmoniously with the family, suddenly receiving news of return of investment is almost equivalent to being reminded that she is not a part of this family. How can she be happy?
"Broly, can I ask you a question?"

Nanahiroshi Shizuka stood still and asked.

"what?"

Everyone turned to look at her, but didn't know what she wanted to ask.

"After my happiness points are redeemed, can I continue to join the Crystal Palace in the next round, live with you, and go on adventures with you?"

Nanahiroshi Shizuka was very nervous and asked in a hopeful tone.

"What weird things are you saying? After you get your money back, won't you recover your memory of the game? Did you join the Crystal Palace in the first place just to get your happiness points back?"

Broly looked at her strangely.

"If you don't live together as a family, where else do you want to live?"

Luo Qixi tilted her head.

"Of course we're adventuring together. If you want to quit the team, you need my permission, Captain Alice. I don't agree. You're a very useful mage in our team!"

Alice said with her hands on her hips.

"Sister Qixing, are you worried about something?"

Sylphy asked.

"No, no, I just thought of something suddenly, but now I have solved it. Let's go and move on. We are the Bloaishi Squad 7 in the Hell Maze of the Continent of Heaven!"

Shizuka Nanahoshi raised her right hand, took a big step forward, passed everyone and became the leader of the team.

"what happened?"

Broly and the others behind her looked at each other, not quite understanding what was going on with her.

"Brother Broly, do you think Sister Nanahoshi seems very happy?"

The green-haired long-eared girl came over and asked, and Broly nodded in agreement.

On the Crystal Palace panel, Shizuka Nanahoshi is already generating happiness points again, and seems to be gaining momentum.

At night, when Broly dug a big hole on the Aurora Plateau to create an artificial hot spring and prepared to take a bath, Nanahiroshi Shizuka, who was originally going to take a bath separately from them, came over wrapped in a towel.

Broly looked at her strangely, and Nanahoshi Shizuka's ears were a little red, but she pretended to be natural and came to the side and asked: "It's a bit cold here. I want to take a shower with everyone. Is that okay?" "Of course I can, but aren't you afraid of being seen naked by me?"

"Ha, what's so scary about this? I joined Crystal Palace and became your wife. And it seems normal for a wife to be seen naked by her husband."

The alien girl's face grew redder as she explained.

"Okay, Broly, stop asking questions. Go rub Alice and Sylphy's backs. Miss Shizuka and I will rub each other's backs, and then we'll go downstairs and take a bath."

Luo Qixi noticed something, came over and came to the rescue.

Broly went to the side, which made Shizuka Nanahiroshi breathe a sigh of relief.

"Ms. Shizuka, welcome. You are officially joining our big family today."

When Luo Qixi was helping to rub her back, she whispered something in her ear, which made the girl with long black hair blush.

"Teacher Luo Qixi, did you see it?"

Nanahiroshi Shizuka asked in a low voice.

"What's so obvious? If a girl is willing to be naked for the opposite sex to see, apart from being coerced or tempted by something external, is there any other explanation other than that she has discovered that she has fallen in love with the opposite sex that she is willing to be seen naked by?"

"Don't you think I'm mean?"

"Why do you ask that?"

"I'm obviously different from you guys. I only joined in to preserve Zhou Mu's memory, but now I'm planning to interfere in your family and relationship."

"That's an interesting statement. I've never thought about it, but if it's you, Shizuka, I think it should be no problem."

"Hey, why?"

"Haven't we gradually become a family during the time we spent together in different weeks? Or do you want to deny the close relationship we once established?"

"No, of course not."

After rubbing each other's backs and taking a bath, Luo Qixi leaned her head comfortably on the stone at the edge of the artificial pool and said, "Besides, it's not so much that you are mean, but that the Crystal Palace is mean. The gentleness it gives to outsiders is like a woven net.

The more people pursue high happiness points, the more they will be trapped in this gentle web woven by happiness.

It's normal for you to be stuck in this, so if you don't hate it, just calm down and enjoy this happiness!"

"Thank you."

Nanahiroshi Shizuka imitated Roxy's posture and also rested her head on the stone.

Above her head was the brilliant aurora and starry sky. In the modern world before the time travel, such an extremely beautiful scenery would probably be something she would never be able to see with her own eyes as a high school girl in reality, but she could do so here.

"Sister Luo Qixi, what are you and Sister Qixing talking about?"

Thirteen-year-old Sylphy swam over and asked.

"I didn't say anything, just said the sky here is beautiful."

Roxy did not reveal the situation of Nanahiroshi Shizuka.

"Hey, it's true."

Sylphy followed suit and leaned her head against the stone at the edge of the artificial pool, looking up at the aurora in the sky.

“Is the sky that beautiful?”

Soon, human-to-human transmission occurred.

Alice also came over and lay on the edge to look at the aurora and the night sky.

Broly didn't quite understand this, but he still watched along.

In the artificial hot spring pool, four large and one small bodies were leaning against the edge of the pool, floating on the water.

From a distance, it looked like five bodies that had been looted and then dumped by someone who had killed them.

. . . .

"So, you like Broly?"

"Ah."

"Then do you still want to go back to your previous life?"

"Well, at least I have to go back and tell my parents that I am safe and happy in this world, so that they don't worry about me."

"What if you can't come back after you go back?"

"That shouldn't be possible. Since I can come here once, I can definitely come here a second time."

"Okay, then let me ask you another question, Miss Qixing. If you are asked to choose a world to live in for a long time in the future, would you choose the modern world before the time travel or the world after the time travel?"

Rudeus asked this in episode 53, and Nanahiroshi Shizuka only thought about it for a while before giving a positive but indirect answer: "My current home is here, and when my children grow up, they will have to start their own families. I can't live with my parents forever."

"Okay, but what about your boyfriend before you traveled through time?"

Rudeus asked again.

"He's not my boyfriend, he's just my childhood sweetheart that I have a crush on. Didn't I tell you that?"

Nanahiroshi Shizuka looked over unhappily.

"You told me about this in other shows, right?"

Rudeus complained that everyone around him had the memory of the surrounding games except him, so when he was chatting with Broly and others, this kind of information asymmetry would often occur, and Rudeus himself had become somewhat accustomed to it.

"Should I say that Qingmei is no match for Tianzhan?"

"It's not that childhood sweethearts can't beat the one who came from heaven, but that childhood sweethearts who have been together for a short time can't beat the one who came from heaven after a long time of living together and living happily together."

"So, you came to me specifically to tell me about this?"

Rudeus felt strange.

"No, I mainly came here to thank you, Rudy."

"Hey, thank me for what?"

"Thank you for convincing me to join Crystal Palace, and thank you for letting me actively participate in Broly's life afterwards. If it weren't for you, I would definitely not have found my own happiness so quickly.

Thank you, Rudius, but I won't give you my original underwear. If you need anything else, as long as it's not some perverted request, you can ask, and I will repay you. "

Nanahiroshi Shizuka thanked him sincerely, but she also said something in advance to guard against Rudeus in case he made excessive demands in return.

Rudeus: "..."

I never expected that I would be the one to act as matchmaker for Nanahiroshi Shizuka.

Even though it was himself in other episodes, he still felt uncomfortable.

You have to know that he is a novice with only theoretical experience, but others may have entered into actual combat under his matchmaking and become experienced drivers with rich practical experience.
