CK Simulation, Creating the Style of Tsukino Fumi

Author: Zhihu 9527

Summary:

Seven years after traversing the moon, the system finally arrived. Quinn, a good student struggling with how to complete the graduation project assigned to him by Director Ken, looked at the tempting Paradox Interactive simulator in front of him, and only one thought came to his mind.

CK, start!

Hmm, why is this script about lunar history? Oh, I see, it must be the formula of simulating reality, right?

Ah, it's time to create some lunar archetypes!

Brothers, look to me! I have an announcement to make: King Arthur rose to power by selling hooks. My ancestors were true Camelot nobles who once bought the ditch of King Arthur's family!

Chapter 1

Volume One: The Perpetual Empire - Holy Britannia

Chapter One Simulation, Start!

Clock Tower, England.

In a basement undetectable by any magic, Quinn stared speechlessly at the Eurasian map that suddenly appeared before him, composed of numerous colorful blocks, and stopped what he was doing.

Crusader Kings III, a 16+ puzzle strategy simulation game, brings you the most realistic gaming simulation experience, helping you become a great ruler...

The moment Quinn stopped what he was doing, illusory text appeared on the map, showing him its contents like a game promotional introduction. But Quinn was completely unmoved, even though what appeared before him looked like a system, and he himself was a transmigrator.

Because he was no longer a novice who had just transmigrated to this strange world; he had been transmigrating for seven whole years.

Dude, it's been seven years, and you're only just starting to show up? You're late! Besides, what use would a magician like me have for a CK3 simulator?

"Request a refund and replace it with the Ultimate Magician System."

Quinn tried to speak, hoping the system in front of him would respond. The CK3 simulator was useless to him at this moment, but the Magician System was still effective.

Because at this moment he is a magician of the Clock Tower, and a disciple of the famous legendary NPC Ken from Type-Moon. His status in the magic world is like that of a department head at Tsinghua or Peking University. If this were in the world of cultivation, even cultivators without a powerful background would have to respectfully address Quinn as "young friend".

If he could also deliver a high-scoring graduation project to his advisor, he might just be able to marry into the El-Melloi family, become a wealthy son-in-law, and snag a rich woman, thus eliminating any need to strive for his future.

But his words received no response. The "Start New Game" option, which kept flashing on the emulator system interface, remained rigidly floating on the map. After realizing that the cheat he had obtained seemed to be nothing more than an inanimate object that could not interact with him, Quinn's interest in the game emulator waned sharply.

He focused his mind, conjured a mouse in the virtual interface, and decisively closed the game interface in front of him, devoting himself entirely to completing his graduation project.

however……

Four hours later, Quinn found himself in the same predicament that every college student nearing graduation inevitably faces—stuck on his graduation project.

"Oh no, what am I going to do about my graduation project?"

Dropping the now-broken ruby, Quinn, who had intended to work on his graduation project using alchemy, once again entered the intermittent state of slacking off typical of modern people. He left his workbench, slumped onto the sofa, and rubbed his temples to ease his throbbing head.

As Quinn relaxed, a certain desire deep within him began to stir.

Since his transmigration, he has spent seven years getting to know this world and working hard to survive in this Type-Moon. During this time, he had almost no time to relax and have fun, and he was forced by life to quit his internet addiction.

But now that he no longer faces many difficulties in life and has returned to a normal routine, he finds it hard to resist the long-lost game.

How about... we play a round? Just to relax and kill some time? After this round, I'll continue working on my graduation project?

Once the thought arose, it was unstoppable. Quinn looked around the room and, after confirming that there was no one else in his room, a thought struck him.

Original... no, CK! Start!

[Locating player coordinates, location detected - London, please select scenario]

[1. Wessex unification]

2. The Wars of the Roses

【3. The Legend of King Arthur】

Quinn glanced at the three instances and guessed roughly what the scenarios would be like.

The first two are about the history of the unification of England by the House of Wessex and the famous English Civil War, respectively, both of which are conventional historical script choices.

The third one is different; it's a fictional literary work script that tells the story of King Arthur. Although the existence of the History of the Kings of Britain is obviously a bit abrupt compared to the first two historical scripts, given Paradox Interactive's consistent style, Quinn isn't surprised that the Legend of King Arthur would be a standalone script.

After playing too many historical dramas, it's quite interesting to try some fictional dramas. This is the one.

The "King Arthurian Legend" scenario has been loaded. Please select your ruler.

[Descendant of the Red Dragon]: As a descendant of King Uther, you, the incarnation of the Red Dragon of Britain, are the natural ruler. Defeat King Vortigern, unify Britain, and become the King of Britain!

【Born in the Purple Chamber】: As the heir to the most powerful empire in all of Europe, you have heard that a rebellion has broken out in a province of the empire. A traitor named King Arthur is attempting to defeat the great Roman Empire. Now, the time has come to quell the rebellion.

【The Landless Adventurer】: A descendant of a fallen family who fled to Britain. Your first priority is to rebuild your family and make it great again. Now, you have heard a local rumor about a kingship election. It is said that as long as you draw a sword, you can become famous and become king.

Three starting options were presented to Quinn. As a veteran Paradox Interactive player, he was already very familiar with the formula of Crusader Kings 3. The first two starting options clearly required him to play the protagonist of the Arthurian legend - King Arthur, and King Arthur's enemy, the Roman Empire. But the third one was a bit unfamiliar to him.

He vaguely remembered that before he traveled through time, Crusader Kings III was going to release a new DLC that would allow players to start the game as adventurers without territory. Could this landless adventurer be referring to the start of this new DLC?

Seeing this unfamiliar option, Quinn became interested. When playing games, who doesn't like to try new things?

[The ruler has been determined—'Landless Adventurer'. Your template data is being adopted. Adventurer editing is complete. Game launch. We wish you a wonderful gaming experience.]

A burst of white light filled Quinn's vision. As the light slowly dissipated, a noticeable swaying sensation came from under his buttocks. Quinn subconsciously looked around and found himself sitting in a swaying carriage, accompanied by several burly men.

Before Quinn could even figure out his situation, a blond, blue-eyed man with a muscular face suddenly spoke up at him, "Hey! You're finally awake?"

Quinn: "?"

Wait, where did this emulator send me? Is this still Britain?

"Did you also hear that King Uther is dead and plan to show your face to Princess Morgan in an attempt to become a wandering knight of the British nobility?"

How dare you slander me like this?!

Quinn glared angrily, "Who are you calling unambitious?!"

Chapter Two: Pureblood + Stunning Beauty = British Succubus

After talking with the burly man accompanying him, Quinn managed to get a basic understanding of the current timeline.

King Arthur's father, King Uther, had recently been defeated by his brother Vortigern. The Celtic tribes, who were originally united under King Uther, were unwilling to submit to Vortigern, and thus rebellions against Vortigern broke out in various places.

It's fair to say that Britain is currently in a phase where everyone is playing PUBG.

Quinn's convoy was heading towards the court of Morgan le Fay, daughter of King Uther, who was the most promising contestant in this round of the PUBG tournament.

The caravan consisted of mercenaries and down-on-their-luck noble adventurers from outside the British Isles. Most of them dreamed of joining Morgan's court to obtain an official position, hoping to become nobles and get rich after Morgan seized the throne.

Quinn's character design in this game is similar, however, Quinn himself firmly denies it. In his opinion, only slackers would think about clinging to rich women to get by, while real players are always ambitious.

After figuring out his current point in the simulated scenario, he then...

Chapter 2

Instead of communicating with his teammates, he focused his attention on his simulator.

Quinn remembered that the character data in this game simulator was based on his own data.

Let me see what level I am at.

A few seconds later, a familiar interface for creating a human immediately popped up.

The character panel clearly displayed this information.

Character: Mr. Quinn

Belief: None

Culture: None

Clan: None

Diplomacy: 11 (9+2)

Military: 7

Management: 15

Strategy: 18

Knowledge: 13

Bravery Value: 15

Quinn was furious when he saw the most outstanding ability among the six categories of [Diplomacy, Military, Management, Strategy, Knowledge, and Bravery].

How could a perfectly good young man with no ill intentions be so exceptionally skilled in strategy? This is clearly slander!

However, when his gaze slid down to the individual [personal traits], Quinn's attitude changed.

This is practically me; the system's data extraction is just too reliable.

[Charming and Spirited: Diplomacy +2, Fertility +20%, Favorability +20]

Pureblood: Fertility +10%, xx reproduction probability -50%

When a player initially creates a character, they have 1 trait point, which can be used to draw new traits or upgrade existing traits.

Looking at the two traits in his personal traits panel, then at the simulator's purchase prompts, and considering the current time period, Quinn suddenly had an idea, remembering that personal traits in Crusader Kings 3 are always a mix of good and bad, and his own terrible luck.

Sigh! Watch me upgrade my "Heroic and Spirited" skill!

As the trait points were invested, Quinn's [Heroic Demeanor] on her character panel changed to [Alluring Beauty: Diplomacy +3, Fertility +30%, Favorability +30], and the number of stares directed at Quinn increased accordingly.

Feeling the friendly gazes of those around him, Quinn knew he had made the right choice.

As a newcomer adventurer, what's the most important thing to make a name for yourself in a strange land? Is it being eloquent? Or being good at fighting?

No, none of that. As a transmigrator who managed to rise from a down-on-his-luck magician to become Ken's student, Quinn knew very well that with his pathetic stats, the only way he could get ahead was to find a rich woman to cling to.

In modern Britain, Morgan von Yuther's daughter is the most desirable woman.

Having made up his mind to latch onto a powerful figure, Quinn began to look forward to the upcoming events and obediently followed the convoy all the way. But he didn't stay idle along the way.

Normally, in the game, the "attractiveness" that the "alluring beauty" skill gives to players is usually targeted at the opposite sex. However, the situation here is obviously more than that. The gazes cast from all directions prove to Quinn that this is a general buff, and it does not only work for the opposite sex.

Taking this opportunity, Quinn began his first move. He randomly beckoned to a few burly men who were with him and asked, "Hello, do you know Mediterranean?"

In less than half an hour, Quinn had already become one of the people around him.
