The Infinite World of Weapon Girls

Thus, the two passed each other and parted ways at the entrance of a corridor. Takiya's office was right next to Kobayashi's, and strictly speaking, Erma was also next to them... in the next room.

Is this where Elma works?

Tina walked to a desk, turned on the computer, and then felt dizzy looking at the mountain of documents on the desk.

The claim of a mountain of documents is a bit of an exaggeration, but the sight of documents piled up more than half a meter high on the table, seemingly about to collapse, is still visually striking.

Despite being just a clerk, Eruma seems to have a lot of work to do every day; she must be really working hard.

As Tina thought this, she casually picked up the top document that she had entrusted to Elma for review and revision; the date on it was still yesterday.

So...?

Tina quickly retrieved a document that had been piling up at the bottom; the date on it was—

It was seven days ago.

Damn it, I got scammed! How lazy is this guy? He had seven days' worth of work piled up and he still wanted someone to cover for him?!

There's nothing we can do.

Let's do it.

Fortunately, these tasks are a piece of cake for the intelligent robot Tina. With her ability to read ten lines at a glance, it only takes her a few minutes to revise a document. Tina is also adept at handling other trivial tasks that require the use of a computer, and her speed is astonishing.

Not long after.

Many employees coming and going in the office noticed Tina. Her focused attention and eyes while working diligently, her breathtakingly beautiful profile, and her quiet and serene elegance were all deeply captivating.

This made many people subconsciously slow down and not bother Tina.

Those who hadn't noticed Elma's work pass all wondered... Had that guy who used to spend all his time playing 3D pinball finally been fired?

If the little girl in front of me is a new employee and must be an adult... does that mean she's a "legal little girl"?!

If it were true, it would be a momentous occasion for the whole family to celebrate. However, as Tina picked up a document and stood up, her dream was shattered when her work badge was seen on her chest.

Ugh, this is infuriating! That idiot is not only lazy, but he also found such a pretty little girl to fill in for him! ...And he's doing all the work that was put on hold before. To put it bluntly, he's basically cleaning up Elma's mess!

Carrying the documents, Tina walked into another office amidst many stares. Then, glancing around, she went straight to Kobayashi's workspace.

He handed over the document with both hands, saying, "Mr. Kobayashi, please sign."

(Yesterday I posted a slightly unconventional short story... Guess what... Ah (resentful face) Is this forcing Xiaoyue to stop updating the main story and just post unconventional short stories every day!)

(Indeed, sometimes working hard to write is not as effective as shamelessly asking for something while writing!)

(Finally, thank you everyone. I'll wait and see today, and if any more big shots jump out to humiliate the author, I'll update...!)

[Ta11 Your friend 'Wife (Husband) Protector Maniac' is now online]

"Kobayashi-san, sign."

This is a confidential document containing the core code of the Python language; it can only be submitted to superiors after Xiaolin confirms and signs it.

The vaguely familiar voice startled Xiaolin, who subconsciously stopped what she was doing and turned around.

"What a coincidence, Tina-chan! But what are you doing here?"

"I'm covering for Elma; she has something to do today."

At this moment, Kobayashi also noticed the work badge hanging around Tina's neck and was taken aback. He thought to himself, "What a small world. I wonder when Elma met Tina."

"I see..."

Taking the document, Kobayashi smiled and said, "But is Tina-chan familiar with this job? Do you need any help?"

Tina shook her head. "I can do it."

"Good luck, Tina-chan." Kobayashi hadn't expected that this emotionless loli, whom he'd only met a few times, seemed far more reliable than any dragon.

“This is…” Takiya Shinya, who was sitting next to Kobayashi, turned around and saw the beautiful girl he had met in the elevator earlier. He was stunned to find that she knew Kobayashi-san.

"Oh, let me introduce you. This is Tina-chan, my new neighbor."

It seems Thor hasn't told Tina Kobayashi the truth yet—that she's actually her 'neighbor' in the apartment building next door…

Kobayashi then introduced Tina to Takiya: "This is my friend, Takiya Makoto, you can call him Takiya."

"Hello again, Tina-chan. Although you may only be filling in for one day, please take good care of me." Takiya smiled and extended his hand.

Because it was their 'first meeting' in the elevator, Takiya said 'see you again'.

"Hello." Tina extended her hand to shake hands, but after a light touch, she shrank back. Takiya assumed she was just shy and didn't think much of it.

Kobayashi watched the two get to know each other with satisfaction, then scanned the documents, muttering to himself in surprise, "Is this... the executable file of the core code? Strange, I remember submitting it a few days ago, why is it only being signed now..."

Otherwise, how diligent do you think that stupid dragon Elma is?

Kobayashi flipped to the last page of the document, signed his name, closed it, and handed it back to Tina, saying, "Tina-chan, thank you for your hard work."

"fine."

"Hey, Takiya-kun, did you finish your programming work so quickly?"

Kobayashi noticed that Takiya had actually opened the game forum during work hours, which was unprecedented, and couldn't help but wonder.

“It’s ten o’clock.” Takiya typed rapidly on the keyboard, replying earnestly, “Sorry, there’s something I have to do first. By the way, Kobayashi, can you do me a favor?”

"But it's working hours now."

"It will only take a moment. Help me hack into the player database of 'JIUJIUYE' (hereinafter referred to as J.JY) and find the information of a player with the ID 'Melee Mage'. It would be best if you could find out the IP address."

Seeing Takiya so earnestly asking for her help for the first time, and judging from his expression, it seemed to be very important to him, Kobayashi didn't refuse, but still asked out of curiosity.

"This melee fighter... I mean, this player... what's wrong?"

“He provoked and bullied Fafu in the game.”

With those words succinctly spoken, Kobayashi felt relieved; no wonder Takiya was angry.

Tina, who was about to leave, was stunned.

[Melee Mage]...isn't that the game ID name that Zhai Nan told him he wanted to choose?

But shouldn't you be trying to get close to Fafnir in the game? What's with the provocation and bullying?

Takiya opened J.JY's game forum. On the homepage, there was a huge banner that read "Martial Arts Tournament Live Broadcast." Takiya clicked on it without hesitation.

The second match, a draw with a score of 10:10, pits the ultimate hardcore player [DaShanMeng] against the dark horse and godfather of melee mages [Melee Mage].

This match was considered by J.JY's players and even the official organizers to be a showdown of the century, no less exciting than the semi-finals. But this ridiculous draw system just happened to bring these two heavyweight contenders together in the qualifying rounds.

"How can J.JY's firewall be so weak? It's a well-known game company, after all..." Xiao Lin muttered to himself as he easily hacked into J.JY's game database and used a search engine to find the information on [Melee Mage].

J.JY's firewall was utterly weak and vulnerable in front of Xiaolin. It only took less than 5 minutes for them to smile and say, "IP found."

"Kobayashi-san's hacking skills haven't deteriorated at all," Takiya praised sincerely. His gaze lingered on Kobayashi's screen for only two seconds before he had already memorized that long string of IP addresses.

"Not at all, not at all, aren't you the same?" Kobayashi looked at the virus windows that kept popping up on Takiya's screen, admiring him while also feeling a little uneasy.

They're all notorious viruses.

Takiya minimized the virus launch program, watching J.JY's live-streamed first match, a gloomy look on his handsome face: "With me here, he can't possibly beat Fafnir..."

Tina: "..."

——————（/__）————————

In a rented 100-square-meter apartment, the room was spotless and free of dust. Apart from basic furniture, there was only a computer with J.JY running and a PSP charging. This was Zhai Nan's temporary strategic base.

Zhai Nan's plan is proceeding in an orderly manner, with each step linked to the next. He only needs to defeat Da Shan Meng to further provoke him.

...Then let Da Shan Meng be disgraced in J.JY, thus having a profound realization and losing interest in the game, and then escape back to that world to continue guarding the treasure?

Zhai Nan didn't want to develop this kind of storyline either. Initially, he had agreed with Tina to build a friendship bond with Da Shan Meng in the game.

Until he unexpectedly received a side quest from the Reincarnation Watch.

[Hidden Quest: Dragon's Treasure!]

—Two phases need to be achieved.

[Phase 1]

Enrage Fafnir, increasing his rage by 10 (achieved).

Enrage Fafnir, increasing his rage by 50 (achieved).

Enrage Fafnir, increasing his rage by 100 (Not achieved).

[Phase Two]

Please complete the first stage first.

[Task Rewards]

①2000 Reincarnation Points

②From the Dragon's Treasure, you can choose any item to bring back to the Reincarnation Space.

[God: Nothing much to say... Be careful, um, be careful, nznd]

Compared to figuring things out on his own, it's definitely more reliable to follow the quest. Besides, Zhai Nan was also eager to know what the second phase of Fafnir's rage would be after reaching 100+.

With one minute left in the countdown to the second match, Zhai Nan took a deep breath and quickly pulled out his notebook to review... 'One Hundred Phrases to Humiliate Your Opponent After a Victory'.

As J.JY's grandest event, even the points-based matches have commentators.

The location was J.JY's official live stream room, where a male and female commentator were seated. The background featured a black curtain and the prominent J.JY logo, which read "The 3rd Martial Arts Tournament."

Below is a commemorative photo of the first champion, a female player with the ID "Super Railgun" and the profession of Freelancer.

And the second champion was another female player whose ID was "To Make All Mankind Happy" and whose profession was Fallen Angel.

It's important to understand that each version has its own dominant class, and these two champions represent two different eras! One is the era of the Lancer, and the other is the era of the Fallen Angel, both of which were the favored classes that crushed other classes.

Now, in J.JY version 3, the Golden Swordsman's tanking attribute has been weakened while its attack has been strengthened. The ultimate skill, Golden Annihilation, has been revamped and now has an execution effect. Therefore, Fafnir has always believed that the Golden Swordsman is the strongest class capable of carrying the banner, until one day, the melee mage suddenly appeared...
