I have no regrets about my 2D world!

Good news, what other good news could there be? Erya thought silently.

"Can you tell me any good news now?" After dinner, Erya finally couldn't help but ask Su Bai.

"Hehe." Su Bai laughed and stood up, straightening his chest. He said proudly, "From today on, I will be your guardian, Erya."

"So, have you figured out what to call me now?"

"Guardian? What?!" Erya thought about it for a moment, then his face was full of disbelief.

"No, my guardian authority is in the orphanage. How could you have it?" After thinking for a while, Erya calmed down, thinking that Su Bai was really teasing her.

"Hey, come here, take a look." Su Bai handed Erya a small notebook with Erya's detailed information and guardianship rights written on it. She even saw the old dean's seal on it.

"No...it shouldn't be like this. Why?" Erya was a little confused.

Seeing Erya's confusion, Su Bai explained to her, "Your old dean is quite easy to talk to. I went over and told him I was your boyfriend and gave him a photo of you, and he agreed to give me guardianship rights. Before I left, he also told me that Erya was still young and that you must be careful and safe. I agreed to all of that."

"Boyfriend? My photo?" Erya looked stunned, as if she didn't understand what was going on. "What photo?"

"It's when you get up in the morning." Su Bai said as a matter of course.

"This morning..." Erya's face froze as he recalled what happened that morning. No wonder the dean agreed so readily and even said those words.

Anyone who saw the photo he was holding of her in her room in her pajamas wouldn't think they had nothing to do with each other, right? Even she herself would definitely think they had something special.

"So, Nia-chan, have you decided what to call me?"

Seeing Erya stunned, Su Bai once again dealt a heavy blow to her heart.

Erya ignored Su Bai and still had a dazed expression on his face. No one knew what he was thinking about, and a broken smile gradually appeared on his face.

"Hehe...hehe..."

Chapter 6: Erya begins to evolve into a homegirl

"Hmm~ha! It's so comfortable." The girl on the bed stretched, sat up and looked at her cell phone.

"Today is a day off! I finally don't have to go to school. Let me think about what to do today." The girl's eyes were filled with joy. The weekly day off was what she looked forward to most during her school days. On weekdays, she would choose to do odd jobs or read in the library during her break, but now...

"Bai, is the meal ready? I'm hungry." The girl shouted loudly.

"It's almost time, it's almost time. Why did you get up so early today?" A voice came from outside.

But the girl didn't answer. Instead, she got up and walked to the kitchen, following the sound. She extended her hand toward the owner of the voice.

"Today is a day off, so..."

Su Bai, who was cooking, turned around and handed his cell phone to the girl helplessly.

"I really shouldn't have let you have contact with it so early. Have you even thrown away your sense of shame now?" Su Bai looked at the girl in pajamas in front of him, and recalled what happened at that time with some regret.

......

One evening, the girl came home from school and saw Su Bai not cooking, but holding his phone, wondering what he was doing. So she got curious and walked over to ask, "What are you doing?"

Su Bai didn't care that the girl came to him and said casually, "Playing games."

Games? The girl was puzzled. She usually only ran between school, home, the library, and the shop where she worked part-time, and had never played any games before. But now, seeing Su Bai's serious look, she suddenly felt the urge to try.

Unfortunately, Su Bai was so focused on the game that he didn't notice the girl watching. After a while, the game ended. Su Bai put down his phone and prepared to cook, but suddenly heard the girl's voice: "Can I try that game?"

Su Bai, who had not yet realized the seriousness of the matter, said casually, "Sure, here you go." Then he handed the phone to the girl.

But when he came back from cooking and saw the girl still playing, he had a bad feeling.

"Eiya, it's time to eat."

"Wait a minute, my game is almost over." The girl said without raising her head.

Seeing the girl's appearance, Su Bai's mouth twitched. Sure enough, an accident happened.

Over the next few days, the girl would come over to ask for his phone every day after she came back. Su Bai thought that after a whole day of studying, it should be okay to play for a while, right?

Then the girl became addicted and couldn't stop. But because of this incident, their relationship gradually improved.

It got to the point where the girl now came to see him openly in her pajamas.

"Tsk, what's the point of having a sense of shame? Can it be as fun as a game? Can it be as interesting as anime or manga?" The girl said with disdain. Then she took her phone and went back inside.

Erya had a mobile phone, and Su Bai had seen it before, but he didn't expect that technology was not advanced at that time. The usability of mobile phones was probably the same as it was a decade ago. Basically, they could only be used to make calls and read books.

Su Bai's phone, however, was one he had materialized during his time in Gensokyo. It was identical to his old one, even the games and anime he had downloaded were still there. Furthermore, after some modifications, it could connect to the internet wherever there was a signal. So, Su Bai would occasionally take it out to pass the time.

But ever since Erya saw it, it has almost become Erya’s mobile phone.

So, is it because of me that Erya became a homebody?

I shook my head and stopped thinking about these things. After all, it was still early and maybe there would be some changes later.

"It's time to eat, don't be too engrossed." Su Bai said and continued cooking.

"I know, I know." Erya responded and took his phone back to the room and lay on the bed.

It's almost time for dinner, what should I do? The girl thought. Well, anime isn't long enough, games are shorter but too complex, and novels... well, I'll just read a few. It'll be just enough to kill some time.

after awhile.

"Eiya, it's time to eat."

"I'll be right there," the girl replied. "Oh, I just saw the exciting part. Forget it, I'll watch it later." The girl sighed and then hit the back button.

Then I saw a book called Date A Live on the bookshelf.

"Well, does Bai also read this kind of book? Interesting. I'll take a look at it and make fun of him when I get a chance." The girl smiled slightly. She thought the book was just some dating methods, so she didn't take it seriously.

Because Su Bai hadn't read any novels for a long time, he had forgotten the existence of this book on his phone.

Then, something happened that Su Bai could not have imagined.

The day before a holiday.

"Erya, it's been a while since you went out. Let's go out for a walk together tomorrow."

Seeing that Erya came back every day to play with her mobile phone and didn't go out even on weekends, Su Bai came up with the idea of ​​taking her out for a walk.

"Don't I go out every day when school goes to school? Besides, there's nothing interesting outside like using a cell phone. I won't go." The girl said while lying on the bed without turning her head.

"You're not going, right? If you don't go, I'll take your phone back."

"No, I'll go. Can't I go?" The girl showed a terrified expression.

"Really, what's so good about the outside world?"

"Okay, go to bed early tonight. If you don't have the energy tomorrow, I will take it back for a while." Su Bai said with a smile, saying something that made the girl even more frightened, and then turned and left.

"No! I will have a good rest!" The girl let out a cute cry.

Seeing Su Bai leaving, a trace of conflict appeared in the girl's eyes. She still didn't want to rest, but when she thought about the consequences of not being able to satisfy Su Bai tomorrow, the girl gave up the idea of ​​continuing to play.

"Well, let's read a novel before going to bed. Oh, right! I remember seeing a book called Date A Live before? If I can learn the techniques in it and use them tomorrow, maybe Bai will change his mind about me and won't care about me playing with my phone anymore?" The girl's eyes lit up, and she quickly found the book and started reading it.

Silent all night.

The next morning, Erya looked at herself in the mirror and fell into deep thought. But when she thought of what she had seen yesterday, she forced herself to cheer up.

Before Su Bai could call her, she had already hurried to Su Bai's room.

Su Bai had just finished his training and was about to get up. When he saw Erya coming in, he was a little surprised.

"Well, you got up so early today? But..." Su Bai noticed Erya's fairy-like face and frowned and asked, "How long did you sleep last night?"

Erya did not answer Su Bai's question, but instead asked: "Are there really elves in this world?"

Chapter 7: Erya's figure is so pitiful

"At an unknown time, the village where the descendants of three magicians lived was destroyed for unknown reasons. By the time the three magicians discovered the situation, it was too late. Hatred grew in their hearts, and they decided to turn this hatred against humans."

"So, they set up a magic circle in the center of Eurasia, summoning the original spirit. Because the spirit had arrived in this world from another world, it caused drastic changes in space, leading to the world-shaking Eurasian air disaster. After that, the original spirit roamed the world, causing frequent space tremors around the world."

"Until six months after the elves appeared, another massive space quake erupted, known as the Great Southern Kanto Air Disaster. During that disaster, the original elf met a human, who took her in and gave her a name."

"Since we met on the 30th, I'll call you Mio!" said the human.

"Mio later lived with that human and his family, and gradually developed a fondness for him. However, her good fortune didn't last long. The three magicians who summoned her discovered her and began hunting her. During her escape, the human was unfortunately killed. To revive him, Mio dispersed her spiritual power and gave it to the humans. This was until she could give birth to the human again, and then the human would take it back, completing the spirit transformation and living with her forever."

"This is the story called Date a Live." Su Bai said slowly.

"As for the details, you should have already seen it." Looking at Erya who was silent in front of him, Su Bai also gave her time to understand.

"Of course, that was the story before I came here. Now that I'm here, there must be some changes. So don't think too much." Seeing that Erya was still silent, Su Bai thought she was sad about the fate of these elves, so he wanted to comfort her.

"This is really...really interesting." A smile suddenly appeared on Erya's face.

"I never thought that I was a character in the book. Bai, are you also an elf?" Erya asked Su Bai excitedly.

"No!" Seeing Erya like this, Su Bai knew that he was worrying in vain.

"But maybe he can be considered a half-elf?" Su Bai said after thinking for a while.

"That's right, after all, the elves in the book are all beautiful girls, and you are not... huh?" Erya, who was originally feeling a little regretful, reacted and asked in confusion:

"What does half-elf mean?"

"Do you remember that voice from before?" Thinking back to what happened at that time, Su Bai still wanted to laugh.

"The sound before? Are you talking about the sound when you blocked me?" Erya also recalled what happened at that time, and her face turned a little dark. For her, it was not a good memory, at least not now.

"Yes, the owner of that voice is the original spirit, now known as Takamiya Mio."

"And the reason I say I might be half-elf is because half of her spiritual power is now in me. So now I also have the ability to turn people into elves."

"So, Erya, do you want to become an elf?" Su Bai asked Erya with a smile.

Erya seemed to be contemplating something, and finally, with a sudden realization, he said, "Sure enough, you've been eyeing me from the very beginning? No wonder you said you weren't interested in me as I am now. It turns out you're interested in me as an elf! Now you've finally let your guard down, haven't you?"

"No change! I don't want to become an elf now!" Erya shook his head firmly.

Hearing Erya's words, Su Bai's mouth twitched, and then he looked at Erya with a scrutinizing look: "Haha, where do you get the confidence that I would like you now? You are not as cute as a loli now, and you don't have a good figure. Who gave you the confidence?"

"I'll grow taller!"

"Very confident." Thinking of how Erya was still poor after becoming an elf, Su Bai couldn't help but show a look of pity.

However, Su Bai breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Erya wasn't planning on transforming into an elf right now. He had only said that on a whim to tease her. He hadn't yet fully digested Mio's power, nor did he have the means to transform a human into an elf.

"Okay, your problem has been solved. Now go wash up and get ready to go out."

"Huh? Do you think I look like I can go out like this?" Erya looked at Su Bai in disbelief, then pointed at his own face and said.

"It's okay." Su Bai waved his hand and the dark circles on Erya's face disappeared, and he even looked much more energetic.

"I forgot to tell you, besides being a half-elf now, I am also a magician." Su Bai smiled and said that he would take Erya out for a day today.

"Well... okay." Erya, who had thought he could take this opportunity to continue staying at home and playing games, became dejected.

Then he went to wash up obediently.

After a moment, looking at Erya who had finished washing and dressed neatly, Su Bai nodded with satisfaction. He looked pretty good.

"Let's go. Since you like games and anime so much, I'll take you to an interesting place." Su Bai saw that Erya was still unhappy, so he told her a good news, then stretched out his hand and said to her:

"Hold my hand."

When Erya heard Su Bai say that he would take her to an interesting place, she finally perked up a little and reached out her hand to hold Su Bai's.

Seeing Erya put his hand up, Su Bai held it and smiled gently, and then the two of them disappeared.

A flash of white light passed by, and the two appeared on a street without attracting the attention of the people around them. Looking at the scene in front of him, Su Bai also became happy.

"Okay, you can open your eyes now." After reminding Erya who closed his eyes after holding his hand, Su Bai looked around.

"This...this is!" Erya opened his eyes wide and looked at everything in front of him, so excited that he didn't know what to say.

"You like anime and games, so I brought you here. This place is called Akihabara, and it's considered a good place for Japan to develop these things. How about it, do you like it?"

"I like it, I like it so much!" Erya said blankly, then her eyes lit up and she let go of Su Bai's hand. "I'll go over there and take a look."

"Don't run so fast, you don't have any money! Really..." After giving a reminder, Su Bai smiled and then looked around.

Akihabara, for him who had always wanted to go there, was still very attractive. Although it was a little different from before, it was still good enough.

Then he walked towards Erya.
