However, that was the original story's Tsukimi, while the Tsukimi in this world has a much more complicated personality than her counterpart in the original story. Or rather, this is what normal emotions a girl should have. Of the Sekirei in the original story's main group, only Tsukimi is the most like a normal, ordinary girl. Yui is an airhead, Matsu is a fun-loving person, Kusa is a precocious loli, and Fuuka is an unconventional older sister. Only Tsukimi is the most normal.
In this world, Tsukimi is a person who says one thing and means another. She says she doesn't want to find Ayame and wants to complete the game by herself, but deep down she also longs for someone who cares about her.
The moment she first saw Li Wei, she was captivated by his charm and couldn't forget his face. However, she was stubborn and, even though she was already smitten, she still stuck to her word and didn't take the initiative to find Li Wei.
As a result, this is the situation now. In just a few days, Li Wei has already had girls around him. Seeing this, Yuehai felt completely overwhelmed.
After the initial shock, Yuehai was filled with anger. She was angry that Li Wei had a girl by his side, and also angry at herself for being so stupid. If she had acted sooner, perhaps things wouldn't be like this now.
It was precisely because of this conflicted feeling that Yuehai didn't want to stay here any longer, which is why she couldn't control her temper and snorted as she did just now, and then moved away from the group.
Song laughed and said, "Perhaps that wagtail had seen Li Weijun before, but it's a real pity that she missed the best time to make her move."
"Senior, are you sure? That guy didn't give Li Wei a friendly look just now. Are you sure he likes Li Wei? That ugly expression made it seem like we owed him money."
Hu Die whispered, "You can't judge things by appearances alone. Senior Song's words, although just a speculation, are highly probable. That expression was quite complex; it wasn't simply dislike or disgust, but rather a mixture of disappointment and other emotions. How could a stranger feel disappointment?"
Song asked in surprise, "Hu Die, you can also observe micro-expressions?"
Hu Die nodded and said modestly, "I know a little bit. I was bored in the lab and had nothing to do, so I tried to learn it."
Uranium Woman grabbed Li Wei's sleeve and said, "Li Wei, when did you provoke her? Weren't you always with us?"
Li Wei spread his hands, looking helpless, and said, "I don't know where I offended her. I'm confused too."
Misaki covered her mouth and chuckled. As the eldest of the Sekirei, she could be considered the older sister of all the Sekirei. With ten more years of experience than the ordinary Sekirei, she was quite knowledgeable, so she could understand the feelings of the "mysterious Sekirei".
Meizai sighed inwardly. Li Wei's charm was simply too great; wherever he went, he attracted a multitude of romantic entanglements. However, this was quite normal. If it were ten years ago, she would have been completely captivated by Li Wei, and it would have been perfectly understandable that these young girls would have lost their composure like this.
Don't be fooled by the seemingly mature appearance of the Sekirei. Aside from the individual characters awakened ten years ago, the remaining characters were awakened gradually. So, while some Sekirei may appear physically mature, their mental age is actually only equivalent to that of a normal human in their teens, and some may even be only a few years old. That's why some Sekirei in the original story were unlucky enough to be deceived and entrusted with the wrong people, such as those scumbags like Ashimei. In the end, they were just too young and naive.
Although Tsukimi looks very mature, Miya senses a childlike quality in her, which suggests that her mental age is actually quite young.
Having seen through this, Meizai naturally wouldn't be surprised by such a thing. Children express their feelings directly like this; they either like what they like or dislike what they dislike, without much pretense.
Mizai said, “I think I understand what’s going on, but these kinds of things are a girl’s secret, so don’t ask me. Even if you ask me, I won’t tell you.”
Miya's words left Uranium Girl and Butterfly both curious and somewhat disappointed. However, the seasoned Matsushita understood Miya's meaning. As the editor second only to Miya, she roughly understood what had happened.
However, as someone who enjoys having fun, Matsu's attitude towards such matters is similar to that of Miyako; even if he knew, he wouldn't say anything.
After getting away from Li Wei and the others, Yuehai jumped several times and stopped on the roof of a tall building. She looked at the food in her hand, but had lost her appetite.
"Damn it! It's only been a few days, why are there so many changes?! How many things happened that I don't know about while I was away?" Yuehai muttered to herself, feeling extremely wronged.
Yuehai wanted to throw the food in her hand, but she was afraid that it would hit passersby below. Besides, she had paid for it and hadn't even taken a couple of bites yet.
Yuehai squatted down and opened the box of takoyaki. The steam rising from the takoyaki and the enticing aroma filled her with bitterness.
"Damn it! Damn it! I'll definitely beat you up next time we meet!" Yuehai said through gritted teeth.
Large tears fell into the takoyaki box, the takoyaki skewers on the bamboo sticks were stained with tears, Yuehai stuffed them into her mouth, and only felt that the saltiness was bitter.
Just above Yuehai's head, an unseen thousand paper cranes hovered in the air. Li Wei, who was watching this scene through magic, sighed inwardly, "This girl is good in every way, except that she's a bit too possessive."
Specially Dangerous Individuals
The sudden appearance of Yuehai did not affect the girls' mood while shopping. They were unaware of what had happened after Yuehai left. To them, Yuehai was a complete stranger.
Li Wei looked at the girls around him. Although it was just a simple family outing, he knew that the girls took it very seriously. Before leaving, they had even asked him to make them bathrobes.
The initial outfits of the Sekirei were full of MBI's wicked humor, and even in this world, they would be considered bizarre by ordinary people. In order not to attract too much attention from others, the girls discussed and agreed to unify their outfits, choosing the most conservative yukata style.
However, their natural beauty was hard to conceal. Even though the girls chose the most conservative yukata styles, they still couldn't hide their charm. So when the girls got together, they always attracted the attention of the men around them. Because of this, Li Wei was deeply hated.
Of course, Li Wei wouldn't care about such things. The envy and jealousy of others were useless emotions to him and could no longer affect him.
The group strolled around until after 10 p.m., and only then did they reluctantly leave the temple fair street, saying how wonderful it was. Returning to Izumo Manor was also very simple: find a secluded corner, open a portal, and walk through it. In just a few steps, they traversed dozens of kilometers and returned to the courtyard of Izumo Manor.
Mei Zai looked at Li Wei and smiled, "I feel that you have more and more secrets. You say you are just an ordinary traveler, but everything you do is so extraordinary. I'm a little curious, Li Wei, what places have you been to before?"
Li Wei said, "Everyone has secrets, and I do have quite a few, but now is not the time to reveal them. When the time comes, you will naturally know my secrets, Meizai."
Meizai nodded, took out the key, and opened the door.
........................
In the somewhat underdeveloped Nerima Ward, a black minivan pulled up in front of a humble house. Several bald, burly men in black suits stepped out. They opened the rear door, revealing a young woman in a long, white shrine maiden's robe. Her short hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and her eyes were fierce. Restraints were in place on her mouth and hands; with her legs crossed, she resembled a ferocious beast standing upright.
The burly men in black looked at the young girl as if she were a monster, and none of them dared to approach her.
The burly man mustered his courage, walked up to the girl, and with trembling hands took out the key to unlock the restraints for her.
The girl jumped out of the car, stretched, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Give me the stuff, and you won't have to escort it anymore."
The burly man said, trembling slightly, "No. Return Blade, you are now free. From now on, you can do whatever you want within the Eastern Capital."
The girl known as Returning Blade took the backpack from the other burly man and said, "I understand, you can go back now."
The burly men, feeling as if they had been granted a pardon, quickly got into the car, started the engine, and floored the accelerator.
At that moment, her hands twisted and deformed, transforming into massive metal cleavers that seemed to come alive, slicing into long, serpentine blades, much like the monsters from the set of the movie *Parasyte*. They instantly sliced the black van to pieces, and the MBI staff inside were not spared either; large chunks of flesh and blood splattered everywhere. Instantly, the black van collapsed into a pile of scrap metal.
The metal greatsword, which had split into numerous blades, reassembled and quickly transformed into normal hands. With a twisted smile on his face, he said, "You said it yourselves: within the Eastern Capital, I can do whatever I want. I wanted to kill you, so I did it. You gave me permission."
Hui Ren took off her backpack, found her personal credit card inside, and put it on her person. She then threw the backpack away. She didn't trust MBI, so apart from the money provided by MBI, she didn't plan to accept any other items directly offered by MBI. If the other party tampered with these items, she would be in a very passive position.
"Hmm... Finally free! This is something to celebrate. Let's go kill a few people for fun." Although Hui Ren has an adorable face, she speaks words that send chills down your spine. Her mind has been warped by long-term experiments. She did not receive proper education when her values were formed, so her aggression is much stronger than that of other wagtails.
Unbeknownst to Hui Ren, right above her head, an unseen origami crane was silently circling, and everything happening here had been completely observed by the crane's owner.
Hui Ren's figure disappeared into the night, and the paper cranes followed at a leisurely pace.
........................
Li Wei, who was reading in his room, had a playful smile on his face. He knew that the real world was far more complex than anime or comics, so anything could happen. Having only watched the anime, he didn't know who No. 4 Blade was. After all, the anime only had two seasons, and two seasons couldn't possibly cover everything. The complete comic book series, on the other hand, had many volumes. This meant that in this world, there would be quite a few characters that Li Wei didn't recognize.
Li Wei was not angry about things that were beyond his control. On the contrary, he found them interesting, since such unexpected changes could bring him new ideas.
For his own purposes, the content of two seasons of the anime was enough; the rest were like additional DLC for the game, meant to be a surprise.
However, Li Wei wasn't interested in a girl like Hui Ren. This kind of madwoman, who had crossed the line into yandere and was completely insane, was useless no matter how cute she was. This unstable element would only cause chaos on his floating island. So, he'd let this crazy Sekirei do as she pleased. Whether she found her own Reishi Bud or reached any stage of the game was none of his concern. Of course, if Hui Ren actively provoked him, he wouldn't show any mercy to this broken, defective product.
However, even defective products can be salvaged. For example, No. Akitsu, a defective Sekirei who can manipulate ice and cannot be transformed by normal people, has a good personality and is the type that can be helped by Levi.
Akitsu cannot be metamorphosed because her power, even in her normal state, has already reached an exceptional level within the Sekirei sequence. The stronger the Sekirei, the more difficult it is to metamorphose. Akitsu, with her normally powerful existence, has become a discarded member for this reason. However, Akitsu has no other problems besides this. To Li Wei, Akitsu is not a discarded member, but simply a pitiful girl.
Chapter 1. Mental Preparation Not Up to Standard
Just as Li Wei was pondering the matter of the Return Blade, a fair hand was placed on his shoulder.
"Li Wei, come play games with me! It's like being in a zoo without teammates. There are all sorts of weirdos among my teammates," said Uranium Girl.
“After all, it’s a new game, and the overall skill level of the players isn’t very high, so this kind of environment is normal. After all, ordinary people aren’t like wagtails, with strong learning abilities,” Li Wei said.
"Although I really want to keep playing, my heart won't be able to take it if I continue playing solo," said Uranium Girl.
"Alright, alright, I can't stand you anymore. Wait for me, I'll log the accounts in," Li Wei said.
Li Wei turned on his computer and began logging into his tank account.
Uranium Girl asked, "Are all the vehicles that appear in this game vehicles that actually existed in the history of your world, Levi?"
Li Wei said, "Not entirely. I directly ported this game from my world, but there are some differences in the history between the two worlds. Therefore, the history of tank development is also different. In order to adapt to this world, I actually modified the technology tree. Whether it is the map or the vehicles, at least 90% of the content has been completely remade. If it hadn't been remade, this game would have gone from a semi-realistic historical game to a fictional war game."
Uranium Girl said, "So how did you set up this game's server? You've been with us these past few days, and I haven't seen you act alone at all. How did you manage to do such a thing?"
Li Wei said, "This world is similar to my world. It's a world where money talks. As long as you pay the right amount, many things are not a problem. Although I haven't been in this world for very long, I have done some things with the gold I exchanged for precious metals. Setting up a game company is just a personal interest and hobby."
"Li Wei, do you have a lot of precious metals stored up? How much?" the Uranium Girl asked curiously.
Uranium Girl knew that Li Wei was a wealthy man who didn't lack money, but she didn't know exactly how rich he was, and now she was very curious about that.
Li Wei thought for a moment and said, "I have collected about 100,000 tons of gold."
In this world, Li Wei's industrial puppet clones continued to collect various precious metals. Gold was an important part of his cultivation, as it could be used to assist in cultivation, as well as for alchemy and weapon crafting. Gold was a very versatile substance for him, and naturally, the more of it the better.
Uranium Girl was astonished. Although Sekirei didn't have a strong need for money, and the credit card MBI had given her was enough for Sekirei to live a carefree life until the game ended, she wasn't without an objective understanding of wealth. She knew that most countries only had gold reserves of around a thousand tons, while Li Wei personally held more gold reserves than all the countries in the world combined. If such a terrifying amount were allowed to enter the market, it would completely collapse the current precious metals market.
It could be said that Li Wei truly possessed the ability to disrupt a country. Uranium Woman shuddered; she was finding it increasingly difficult to understand her own Wei Ya.
Uranium Woman said, "Li Wei, have you ever thought about going all out?"
The Uranium Woman felt a surge of excitement. This thing was so enormous, like a giant dragon. Just by turning over, it could crush countless ants.
Li Wei said, "No interest. I know what you want to do. That kind of boring thing is less interesting to me than what to eat for dinner. I've seen too many farces. I prefer a lighthearted comedy to a farce."
Li Wei logged into his account, and Uranium Girl sent him a team invitation. The two had already teamed up, and Uranium Girl, as the team leader, decisively clicked "Enter Battle".
Uranium Girl said, "Comedy? Tragedy? If I hadn't met you, Li Wei, what would my future have been like? What would the future of the other Sekirei have been like? The Sekirei Game, where the Sekirei have to kill each other, and the final winner gets to enter the so-called Takamagahara—it doesn't matter what it is. I hate that kind of future. I hate killing my own kind."
Li Wei said, "That's just how battle royale games are: winner takes all, loser eats dust. According to Mihiro, the one who wins in the end will gain divine power. Doesn't he worry that the one who gains divine power will turn around and kill him?"
·Requesting flowers·· ······
Uranium Woman said, "If I win in the end, I will definitely do this. But now that I have met Li Wei, and Yu Guangren has a better way to punish him, I am no longer fixated on killing him directly. Letting him die like this would be too easy for him."
Li Wei inwardly wanted to complain that MBI was really inadequate in terms of psychological preparation for the Sekirei. So far, the Sekirei he had encountered, even the most normal ones, had a considerable amount of murderous intent. It could only be said that the laboratory environment was really terrible. The Sekirei had become like this because they had sown the seeds.
........................
In Mihiro's private office at the MBI headquarters, his secretary cautiously reported to him about the disappearance of the Blade of Destruction. As Mihiro's close advisor, the male secretary was quite familiar with his boss's personality. Mihiro was an unpredictable and eccentric person, so he had to report as many factors as possible.
. ...... ...
Yu Guangren laughed and said, "This kind of thing happened unexpectedly. Hui Ren seemed quite depressed while she was in the lab. The first thing she did after leaving the lab was to find someone to vent her anger on. You arrange the compensation for those unlucky guys. MBI isn't short of money. Also, send out intelligence personnel to search for clues about Hui Ren as much as possible. After you find her, have the punishment team go and give her a warning, but of course, stop at a superficial injury."
Hiroto was, after all, the big boss of MBI. Although he had many subordinates, he couldn't just use them as cannon fodder. He couldn't afford to demoralize his men, and what Kaijin had done was tantamount to slapping him in the face. That's why he decided to send the punishment squad to deal with Kaijin.
