"The same as mine?" Shi Chen frowned. "The fragment you obtained from Frilian?"

He only has one piece of clothing on him now.

[Yes. ]

"What do you mean? Divine fragments can have twins?"

[You should understand.]

"..."

Shi Chen naturally understood that the only reason Jin Mu Qian Shu could have fragments of him on her body was because he had traveled through time to give them to her.

So why give it to her?

What is the use of divine fragments?

[It can do anything, but you can't use it directly on yourself.]

"I see."

Shi Chen understood now; it seemed that he had used a fragment of divine power to cure Jinmu Qian Shu's heart disease in the future.

"But why can't I use it on myself?"

It did not answer.

This was within Shi Chen's expectations. He continued, "Why can't we obtain the divine fragments from Chishu?"

[Identical divine fragments will conflict.]

"conflict......"

If that's the case, it seems he can only obtain the divine fragments from Nishiki Chizuki by traveling through time and space.

This was exactly what he wanted, because only after traveling through time could his relationship with Nishiki Chizuka be fulfilled.

"One last question, is this what you meant by regretting it?"

If he hadn't obtained the fragments before, would he have been unable to save Nishiki Chizuka?

This will definitely make him regret it.

But even if he didn't acquire the fragments beforehand, he could immediately acquire them from Thor. The fragments have the same abilities. Could he possibly travel through time before acquiring the fragments from Thor?

[I don't know either... but you'll find out when the time comes.]

"Ok."

Whether the time is unclear—whether it's genuine ignorance or a deliberate attempt to create a riddle—is no longer relevant, but there's no need to ask.

This attitude clearly indicates that you won't get any answers from them.

"By the way, where are the fragments on my body? I can't feel them."

[Didn't you just say it was the last question?]

"Ahem, it just popped into my head."

[later.]

Shi Chen turned around and saw a glittering golden fragment, about the size of his palm. The fragment was irregular in shape and had obvious gaps around it.

Shi Chen frowned as he stared at the fragment. He was a little puzzled. This fragment actually felt somewhat familiar to him, and he had a very warm feeling about it.

He reached out his hand, and the fragments seemed to sense his presence as they floated over and landed in his hand.

The fragments were smooth and warm, but he couldn't feel anything else. It seemed he couldn't use the divine fragments for the time being.

Do we really have to collect all ninety-nine pieces?

Shi Chen isn't entirely unable to accept it now. After all, knowing that the world he's about to travel to is a two-dimensional world, he can only look forward to it.

Shichen released the fragments and prepared to leave: "Goodbye."

With a thought, he vanished from this white space without leaving a trace.

The space returned to calm, except for one additional fragment that shimmered with golden light.

After an unknown amount of time, the mechanical voice slowly began to sound.

[goodbye......]

The next day, Kasumigaoka Utaha arrived a little early, just in time for their breakfast.

Just as they finished washing up and were making breakfast in the kitchen, enjoying a happy family time, there was a knock on the door.

Shichen was quite curious about who would come for coffee so early in the morning, but when he opened the door, he saw Kasumigaoka Utaha dressed in casual clothes.

She was wearing a blue dress underneath, the hem of which was below her knees, and a thin jacket over it. To Shi Chen's surprise, she wasn't wearing black stockings today, just a pair of sneakers and short socks.

Her calves are quite fair.

"Why are you here?" Shi Chen asked curiously.

"What? Can't I come?" Kasumigaoka Utaha said, squeezing into the store.

Shi Chen closed the door and continued, "Did you leave something here yesterday?"

"I'm here for breakfast." Kasumigaoka Utaha turned around and smiled, then walked towards the kitchen.

"Breakfast?" Shichen followed her.

"What? You don't want to? Or did I disturb your beautiful morning? With one woman on each side or something." Kasumigaoka Utaha glanced at him.

"What do you mean by having two women on the left and one on the right..." Shi Chen twitched the corner of his mouth.

"Then it's all right?"

"You didn't come so early because you were worried about me and Thor, did you?" Shichen asked with a smile.

"...How could that be?" Kasumigaoka Utaha said expressionlessly, "I was just too lazy to make breakfast, and I had a lot of inspiration in my head, so I wanted to write it out as quickly as possible."

"Alright, alright, let's leave it at that," Shi Chen said with a smile.

"..." Kasumigaoka Utaha glared at him, embarrassed and annoyed.

Tohru and Chitsuka Nishiki had almost finished cooking when Kasumigaoka Utaha walked in and saw the tempting food on the table, her nose already filled with the aroma.

"Kasumigaoka? What brings you here?" Tohru frowned as soon as he saw Kasumigaoka Utaha.

“I’ve come to have breakfast with you guys,” Kasumigaoka Utaha replied without any politeness, as if they were very close friends.

"?" Thor looked at Shichen in confusion.

"Let's make another dish," Shi Chen said.

“Alright,” Thor reluctantly agreed.

"Haha~ Kasumigaoka, please have a seat." Nishiki Chizuka was quite welcoming to Kasumigaoka Utaha.

"Thank you."

The dining table was a small long table, and Kasumigaoka Utaha, without any awareness of being a guest, casually sat down at the table.

Shichen sat down opposite her.

There were already three dishes on the table, quite a feast for the first time of the day, after all, this was Nishiki Chizuka's first breakfast.

The two of them got up early in the morning and said they wanted to make a big feast, and they didn't care about the time.

Thor quickly finished cooking the last dish and then sat down to eat breakfast with everyone.

Tohru and Toki sat on one side, while Chizuka Nishiki sat on the other side with Utaha Kasumigaoka.

"I'm gonna start now!"

Breakfast was fairly harmonious, except for Tohru and Nishiki Chizuka, who were having a lively time and kept putting food on Shishi's plate.

Shichen just needs to quietly eat his rice.

Kasumigaoka Utaha ate quietly from beginning to end, her posture quite elegant, making Tokishi wonder if she had really come to join in the fun.

It seems more like they're just here for breakfast.

After breakfast, Kasumigaoka Utaha went to the shop to write her novel, while Tohru and Nishiki Chitsuka were in charge of cleaning the dishes and preparing for business.

The shop wasn't open early in the morning. Chizuka Nishiki would buy her daily necessities in the evening. Since I was bored, I would keep Kasumigaoka Utaha company and watch her write her novel.

It's quite novel to read novels written by people. You can see the deletions and revisions, the official plot, and the possible plots.

Kasumigaoka Utaha, completely oblivious to the time, watched from the sidelines, utterly absorbed in her inspiration, typing away on the keyboard.

Shi Chen didn't disturb her either. He was just reading a novel and didn't need to offer any opinions. Whether the writing was good or bad was up to the author.

Readers' opinions are only what they want to see, not what the author wants to write.

When it was time to open the shop, Shichen left.

I don't know if it's because of the beautiful girl Chizuka Nishiki, but there are quite a few male customers today.

Chizuka Nishiki is very capable, and more importantly, she is lively, cheerful, and always smiling, which makes her very popular with customers.

There's no need for specific times anymore; he just needs to honestly act as a signboard girl to attract female customers.

Chapter 28 Novel Release

By Wednesday, news finally broke regarding the release date of Kasumigaoka Utaha's novel.

It was scheduled for Friday.

Friday is indeed a good day. Students get a weekend off, and those who like reading novels will definitely buy one or two to spend the weekend.

The fact that Machida Sonoko managed to secure such a good opportunity shows how highly she regards Kasumigaoka Utaha's novel.

However, Kasumigaoka Utaha's writing is indeed excellent; the writing style is good, and the plot is good, which is enough for a novel.

Her writing style alone is enough to turn book lovers into die-hard fans.

The novel immediately entered the promotional phase, with announcements posted on the official website of Shinazugawa Bunko and posters displayed in Shinazugawa Bunko bookstores.

The illustrations are surprisingly good too.

However, Kasumigaoka Utaha rejected Machida Sonoko's suggestion regarding promotional material.

Machida Sonoko wanted to attract readers by using the gimmick of Kasumigaoka Utaha being a genius novelist who is a beautiful high school girl.
