Zongman: Please stop destroying the worldview!

Chen Mo put on an air of humility, ready to learn. "So, where can I hear a truly good version of Sora no Kane?"

The girl thrust her phone in front of Chen Mo as if displaying a treasure: "This version I listened to is the authentic one!"

Girl: "Listen, isn't it different?"

Chen Mo plugged in his headphones: "Oh oh oh! Indeed, it feels completely different!"

Girl: "Right, that's a cover version you downloaded from somewhere, it sounds so disgusting!"

Chen Mo: "I don't know. Although I don't know much about music theory, the emotions in your version are obviously much more vivid and lively than mine!"

Girl: "You really know your stuff! I want to introduce you to the author of this song, the great Miss Momoka Kawahara!"

It seemed like he had just encountered a fanatical fan's preaching scene. Chen Mo used his child-like skills to coax her and said, "Wow, I can hear such a beautiful song, Miss Taoxiang, I love you!"

The girl's name is Jingqin Renna, she is an avid fan of Diamond Dust, and she said that she was so lucky to meet a like-minded person on her first day in Tokyo.

But Chen Mo didn't dislike this genuine enthusiasm. Rencai had taken the wrong train to get to Tokyo Station, going the opposite direction from him. After introducing herself to him, she muttered to herself, "I'm such an idiot," and walked away with her suitcase.

There was just one thing that was odd. Chen Mo looked at the information on his phone. The author of "Empty Box" wasn't Momoka Kawahara, and she had already left Diamond Dust. Was it some copyright dispute or something? It seemed like things with girl bands weren't always so innocent.

On the Shinkansen from Tokyo to Nagoya, Chen Mo and his four companions took their seats, preparing to transfer at Nagoya Station and head to Itomori Town—now renamed Itomori Lake. The four-person team heading to Itomori Town consisted of Chen Mo, Yotsuya Miko, Taki Tachibana, and Hiroi Kikuri, a group composed of people who had nothing in common.

By the way, the expenses of this trip were fully covered by Long. Chen Mo, who was happy to have his expenses reimbursed, looked at his client and thought he was so handsome. Which girl saved the world in her previous life and was tied to such a good man by the gods with a red thread in this life!

At this moment, Kikuri's cracked phone rang. After answering, Shima's furious roar came from the other end:

"Kiri, where have you been again!?"

Kikuri chuckled after waking up from a short nap. "I haven't been anywhere. I'm on the Shinkansen right now."

"What?! Where are you?!" Shima was completely stunned. He'd thought it was outrageous enough that Kikuri would randomly spawn in alleyways across Tokyo after getting drunk, but he hadn't expected her to do it again today, taking the Shinkansen and leaving! If he didn't take care of her, she'd end up flying out of Japan sooner or later!

Chen Mo answered the phone. "Hello, Miss Shima? I'm Chen Mo, the fan who attended your performance today. My friend and I are on our way to Itomori Town. Kikuli insisted on coming with us, so we had no choice but to bring her along."

"So Kikuri is with you guys! Ahaha, I was scared to death."

Shima's voice came from the other end of the phone:

"Really? After what happened, she's already causing you trouble again. I'm so sorry, but she's such a troublesome person. Please take care of her."

"It's nothing. You're calling me so urgently. Are you worried about her?"

"Of course, no matter what, Kikuri is our important captain!"

Putting down his phone, Chen Mo said to Ju Li, "Everyone in the band cares about you."

Kikuri's drunkenness had subsided considerably by now, and she was beginning to realize that what she had just done was indeed causing trouble for others. "Hehehe, I'm sorry. To show my apology, I'll play the bass for you. Clang clang! This is my bass, my soul, Super Ultimate Shuten-doji EX version!"

The flight attendant came over and ruthlessly reminded: "Please don't play musical instruments in your seat, it will disturb others."

"Well - then I'd better drink. Where's my wine?"

Kikuri frantically searched her backpack, but it was empty, with nothing in it.

Realizing that not a drop of alcohol would enter her mouth for the next few hours, Kikuri slumped in her seat in despair, her wine-red eyes staring blankly, as if her soul had been taken away.

Chen Mo suddenly began to sympathize with Xiangzi. Dealing with a teammate who was soaked in alcohol and randomly refreshed on the map was such a headache. How high would Xiangzi's blood pressure be if he had a father like this living with him every day!

Chapter 47: Some digressions by the author

Yesterday's me: The number of reminders has exceeded 50, this book is not dead (happy)

Today's me: After working overtime, I came back and saw that I was asked to update 2000+? I immediately stopped breathing.

I'm really flattered to receive so much support from everyone. As a new author, I'm going crazy with the recognition I want (laughs).

Let me explain a little bit about this book:

1 I am really a newbie, I just started writing when my mind was excited. As an author who has to go to work and can only write in his spare time, my ability is limited and I can barely maintain full attendance. I really can't avoid various typos and small errors in settings. I would like to thank all the readers who have found bugs. I will find time to correct them one by one.

In addition, there are some setting bugs in the early stage, which is also a very wrong reason. Many of the series and games are from a long time ago. I can't remember a certain plot or character name and I'm too lazy to watch it again. Some of them have only watched the anime and not the subsequent original works. In order to save time, I ran to ask the AI.

Then that damned Deepseek started spouting nonsense. I kept hearing about the end of The Promised Neverland, where Norman developed a nuclear bomb and was about to explode it on the entire world before realizing something was amiss. These days, when artificial intelligence encounters a slightly off-the-beaten-path work or setting, it starts spouting nonsense. I had no choice but to catch up on it myself, bit by bit. Writing a manga is always a struggle.

2. Regarding the character design of the protagonist, haven’t you noticed that Chen Mo still has no flashback chapters and no personal replays? (laughs)

This is also my own fault for my inexperience. I originally planned to finish the first volume at 15 words, but it's already well over . There's still a lot of important plot points left to write, including two key characters from the subplots, the protagonist's memories of the previous world, the hidden plot at the planeswalker camp, the bands' performances, and the final showdown with the evil god—none of that has been written yet! By the end of this, I'm heading towards + words! Honestly, the pacing is already falling apart.

I'll give you a sneak peek, though: the first volume concludes the Evil God arc, along with the protagonist's Dihua fantasies and money-strapped memes. After all, playing with a single meme for 100,000 words is tiresome, and playing with it for a whole book is downright disgusting.

3 About harem or single female lead

Why is the rhythm of the first volume so broken? It’s all because of Teacher Daxiang!

To be honest, there was no love line in my original outline, because I don’t know how to write a love story at all. I planned to deal with it roughly later by making the characters fall in love over time.

Xiangzi was originally a pure middle school comedic character, but because he was set as the link between the two groups, he had to appear in the first volume. As a result, two personal episodes suddenly appeared while I was writing. The illusion of love and separation was originally going to hit Hongxia, but with Xiangzi in the picture, it was impossible to go far away.

Then the readers told me that the love line was well written and the story of Xiangzi was very sweet?

I went through the plot again myself and found that Xiangzi’s story seemed really emotional?

Oh my god, congratulations to Teacher Daxiang for defeating the author and winning the position of the sole female lead.

4 About the main storyline

Yes, man. The main storyline is already planned. It's an original story for the Planeswalker Camp, and only two or three original Magic characters will appear. Honestly, Magic's plots have been as abstract as the hen card in recent years. I'll basically abandon the original and just go with the magic modification.

Finally, thank you all for your support. I'm going to write

Chapter 48: Something that Numbs the Pain (Merged Chapter)

This is a story from a long time ago. When Chen Mo was in high school, he had a roommate nicknamed Xiaofeng. He was as thin as a straw, but his appetite was surprisingly flexible. Sometimes he could eat one meal every three days, and sometimes he could eat ten meals a day.

That night, Xiaofeng ate a meal in the school cafeteria that cost over 50 yuan. Considering the relatively affordable prices at Chen Mo's high school cafeteria, this guy almost spent three days' worth of food on one meal for the entire dormitory. When Xiaofeng walked into the dormitory with a bulging stomach and burping, Lao Yi poked his head out of bed and whispered to Chen Mo:

"Amo, what happened to Xiaofeng?"

Chen Mo: "What else can he do? He's just sad again. Don't you know he has a crush on the class beauty from the next class? Today, she's taken."

The first one seemed a little confused: "Then why is he eating so much? Is he trying to turn into a pig and become the main course at someone's wedding?"

Chen Mo rolled his eyes. "If you keep talking like that, you'll get hit by a truck and thrown into another world sooner or later. Everyone has their own habits. When faced with unacceptable sadness, you always have to find a way to numb yourself. Don't you ever feel sad and want to do something to distract yourself?"

Lao Yi recalled the Light Control, Magic Bell Cave, and Bug Confuse Magic deck he had just formed and smiled shyly;

"When I'm sad, I like to play cards with you guys."

Chen Mo: "I really should have beaten you up before playing cards, you bastard!"

Tokyo Magic Part-time Job Mutual Aid Group

[See] (Yin Yang Eyes): Everyone, today the group leader and I went to Itomori Town! I heard there's a deity there who can help with marriages, so I'm looking forward to it!

[Black Wings]: Really? Then please help me make a wish and say to Kokomi-chan—Oh huh!

[Saiki K.]: You're overthinking it. It's impossible. Gods are not fools.

[Black Wings]: That's too much, Saiki! I was just joking!

[oblivionis]: @[Chen Mo] What are you doing? It’s almost dark and you’re kidnapping a girl to the wilderness. Aren’t you afraid that others will be scared?

The god of marriage, [I can see], he is still underage, be careful or I will call the police

[Chen Mo]: It’s so funny. [Can see] has seen a lot of storms before, so what’s so scary about the wilderness?

Besides, what are you thinking? This time we are here to solve a problem with a client who has a connection with us!

-

On the train to Itomori Town, Chen Mo pulled Jianzi into his magic exchange group.

Soon, Jianzi introduced a whole new style to the group: spooky, spooky, and bizarre stories! She shared a bunch of vivid, personal ghost stories with them, along with carefully selected, spooky photos. This successfully frightened everyone in the group, and Hai Tengshun even flooded the group with "Stop talking" emojis, completely ignoring his usual cool, macho image.

At this time, the group member who usually lurked [Qi Mu Kusuo] sent him a private message:

Chen Mo, this [Visible] is the same as you and me, it’s the real thing, right?

[Chen Mo]: Of course, we are definitely all real!

[Saiki K]: No, only us and the newcomers are real. Everyone else is just a bit of a Chuunibyou.

[Chen Mo]: This is really an exaggeration. Why do you say that group members have a middle school syndrome?

[Saiki K.]: They reveal enough flaws in their daily conversations, why do you pretend not to see them?

[Chen Mo]: No way, there are all kinds of strange things in the world. Just in case! Just in case! Don't think that everyone else is fake just because you have super powers!

Saiki K.: I understand. Come back to me after you've resolved your own issues.

[Chen Mo]: What do you mean?

After that, Qi Mu went offline. Chen Mo watched their chat for a long time, and finally deleted the private chat with a click of his finger.

-

The train had been running for more than an hour when rain finally began to fall from the gloomy sky. The sound of raindrops hitting the train window was like the beat of a strange drum.

It seems that scaring the group members in the group is not enough, so Jianzi started telling ghost stories on the train:

"Let me tell you, Hua and I were walking outside the other day when we saw a cardboard box with kittens waiting to be adopted. I went over to check on the cat, but there was a dark, evil spirit huddled inside, baring its teeth! It really scared me to death! I couldn't touch it, and I couldn't retreat!"

Taki, who was somewhat curious about supernatural events, began to listen to Zi talk about her experience of seeing ghosts. Chen Mo was not very interested in the appearance of such little evil spirits. Instead, he found that Ju Li, who had no wine to drink, was in a very interesting state.

"Wow, that's scary. Real life is scary enough, why do we have to have evil spirits?"

Kikuri huddled herself into a ball, huddled in the train seat, shivering. Normally unbridled and unrestrained after drinking, she was now like a quail drenched in rain, utterly uneasy about everything around her. Only then did Chen Mo realize that this drunkard wasn't as imposing as he appeared on stage. Huddled and shivering in his seat, he felt like he was witnessing another Pochi-chan.

When she's not drinking, she's Pochi-chan; when she's drinking, she's Kita; when she's drunk and asks for something, she becomes Ryo. Is this Hiroi Kikuri some kind of reunion of the band?

Jianzi was still telling the story with great interest: "Later, we started looking for a family willing to raise the kitten. Two people came. One was a fierce-looking bald man with a tattoo on his head. He stood there staring at me fiercely. The other looked gentle and polite. He even greeted Hua in a gentle tone. As a result, Hua, who judged people by their appearance, was deceived!

The second, elegant-looking man is filled with the evil spirits of cats who died tragically! If I give him the cat, he'll definitely kill it! On the other hand, the bald uncle is filled with the benevolent spirits of two happy little cats. It's only right to entrust the cat to him! I've never been so grateful that I can see this!"

Taki nodded, a thoughtful expression on his face. "So, your Yin-Yang eyes aren't all bad. Sometimes, if used well, they can be a gift that others don't have."
