Gensokyo Population Revitalization Plan

[Extracting abilities...]

[Ability obtained: Phantom Sword (exclusive talent of the Noctis royal family).]

"Swoosh~ I won the jackpot!"

Although Mu Huai has never played the Final Fantasy series of games, he has seen the cool Phantom Sword ability in videos before: a large number of translucent weapons of different types float around the body, and different attack modes can be switched at any time during battle, performing extremely gorgeous combos and finishing moves.

As a sword-shaped mark appeared on the back of Mu Huai's hand, replacing the ring in the game, he awakened this ability that only those of Noctis' royal bloodline could control.

A glassy, ​​blurry reflection of the weapon appeared behind him, unlike the phantom sword weapon in the game that can only be unlocked by completing various story missions and explorations.

Any weapon that Mu Huai has ever used can be integrated into the Phantom Sword and become part of his ability.

With a thought, he reached forward and pulled out the red-blade sword that originally belonged to Mobile Pegasus from the void.

"This is really convenient. I was worried that Faiz would have no weapon to use after his belt was damaged. I didn't expect to be able to use the Red Blade Sword."

After the decisive battle with Alexis, Faiz's belt was destroyed by the violent photon blood and turned into sand and disappeared before Mu Huai.

"I remember Murasaki mentioned Kaguya's ability to last a moment. So the knight's belt should be something she made. I'll ask her later if she can make me another one."

Mu Huai remembered the wind-blown grass seeds he had planted before traveling through time. He hadn't watered them for so many days since he left Gensokyo. If they withered and died, he would not be able to earn his first pot of gold.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly opened the door and came to the cultivated farmland in front of the house to check the condition of the windweed. Unexpectedly, the field did not look like no one took care of it, and the soil even had a hint of moisture.

Could it be that Yakumo Yukari helped me water the plants?

Mu Huai squatted next to the small mound, and a countdown popped up in his field of vision.

【Maturation time: 4 days.】

"Hmm? It takes four days from the time the parsnips are planted to when they mature. Doesn't even a single day pass in Gensokyo?"

This is good news. At least Mu Huai will be able to earn his first pot of gold soon. It is obviously irrational to continue farming without being able to buy seeds.

There are only two ways to make money quickly in the early stages of Stardew Valley: the fishing style of fishing like crazy after getting a fishing rod, the early planting of windbreaks as a capital reserve, and the farming style of buying a large number of strawberry seeds from the profiteer Pierre on Easter Day, the 13th of spring.

Neither of these two schools of thought is suitable for the now-redeveloped Pelican Town. Mu Huai is not sure whether the fishing rod he made can catch fish in the river, but it is still worth a try. If he can catch fish, then he can quickly accumulate initial capital.

"Mutou~ What are you looking at?" Xin Tiaoqian's voice came from far away, and then she threw herself on Mu Huai's back, hugging him and rubbing her cheek against his. "This town is so dilapidated, but I will help you fix it!"

"Yes, yes, then it will all depend on you and Rikka."

"Hehe, then I want a reward!"

Akane Shinjo stuck out her lips towards him, and Mu Huai kissed her lovingly, and even Rika Hodo, who had just walked up to them, did not let her go.

Because there were no ingredients at home, Akane Shinjo went back to her original world and bought a lot of ingredients from the supermarket and returned to Gensokyo. She and Rikka Takarada both have the authority to travel back and forth between the two worlds. Currently, the monster girl is responsible for maintaining the entire world after she left.

"Ah! The food is all fine, but the seeds you asked me to buy are gone for some reason!"

"As expected, this situation will happen..." Mu Huai shook his head helplessly: "Xiao Qian, there's no need to try. It seems that the crops that can be grown in Pelican Town must be obtained from stores or seeds in this area."

This situation made Mu Huai completely give up the idea of ​​relying on farming to develop in the early stage. He planned to make a fishing rod tomorrow and try his luck in the river.

The three of them had dinner at home. Mu Huai had just washed the dishes when he saw Akane Shinjo fastening the bolt on the wooden door and Rika Takarada tied her long hair into a high ponytail.

He thought to himself that something was wrong and slowly moved towards the window.

"Xiao Qian, it's getting late. Shouldn't you and Rikka go home?"

"Go home?" Akane Shinjo bit her lip with a seductive look, the smirk on her lips growing stronger. "Isn't your home our home?"

"Well... you're right..."

"Okay, just stay in bed. Qian promised me she wouldn't do anything stupid again."

Rika Takarada gently pulled him to sit on the bed and unbuttoned his shirt with her delicate hands.

Mu Huai only felt the cold wind blowing across his waist. He had just been beaten by Sakuya Izayoi and had become a little anemic today, and now he had to be held down by his two beautiful wives to pay his dues.

My life is coming to an end!

"Come on! Don't pity me just because I'm your boyfriend!"

"Pfft, that's what you said!"

"No, no, no, I was wrong!"

Yakumo Yukari was lying on the tatami, cracking melon seeds and watching an action movie with great interest. When she accidentally saw Mu Huai fainting with his eyes rolled up, she slapped her thigh and shouted, "It's broken!"

"I forgot this kid just had a large can of blood drawn today, and his body is already weak!"

She quickly waved her hand and threw Mu Huai into the gap and sent him into the Eternal Pavilion, then appeared in person to explain the situation to the disheveled Rika Takarada and Akane Shinjo.

"Oh!"

"Wow! What's going on?!" Kaguya Hourai stared at the naked Mu Huai lying on the tatami with wide eyes. She dropped the game controller and hurried out of the house. "He looks like he's been sucked dry by a female ghost! Eirin! Eirin! Hurry and give this guy some medicine!"

After Yagi Eirin arrived at Kaguya's room, he immediately frowned and raised his hand to shoot Mu Huai, who had blasphemed the Moon Princess, through with his bow and arrow. Kaguya hurriedly stopped him and said, "No, no, no, it's all a misunderstanding. It was that Yakumo Yukari who sent Mu Huai here. Help me heal him first, and we can talk about the rest later!"

"Ok."

PS: Thanks to @Yuqi for the blade

Chapter 41 The Pointed Head Mu Huai and Man Hong

Yagi Eirin didn't know until she checked, and she was shocked. She found that the human body in front of her was like a big stew stuffed with various powers. The traces of Yakumo Yukari and Kaguya's power were the most obvious, and then there was an almost endless energy residue and a weak power with extremely high rules.

Interesting... I think he is the human who can save Gensokyo that the Monster Sage mentioned. But I didn't expect that the netizen that the princess usually talked about was actually real... It seems that it is necessary to make his attitude lean towards Eternal Pavilion.

After a series of operations and treatments, Yagi Eirin completely integrated the remaining life force of Alexis and Kaguya's momentary power in Mu Huai's body into his body, achieving an effect equivalent to the Penglai elixir.

In other words, Mu Huai possessed an immortal body, but his physical strength did not change.

"Eirin, how is Mu Tou?"

"It's okay now, Kaguya. Didn't I tell you not to use Shuyu's power carelessly, let alone on ordinary people? I think it's a miracle that he's still alive. It must be Yakumo Yukari who's secretly protecting him."

Kaguya looked around guiltily, like a student caught misbehaving in class. "Ahaha... well, Wood is my online friend. I have to give him some good gear when he goes out to save the world, otherwise I, the Moon Princess, will seem too stingy."

"Give him this letter when he wakes up."

"What's in the letter?"

"Nothing much, just reminding this young man to remember to report to Yongyuan Pavilion on time. His physical condition has been completely solidified. If he wants to improve his physical fitness, he must take the special medicine I made."

As a shrewd person who has lived for who knows how many years, how could Yagi Eirin not see the importance of Mu Huai to the entire Gensokyo, not to mention that his own princess obviously cares about him very much. It is always a good idea to interact with him and invest in him more before he grows up.

"Ah? The body solidifies? This won't affect the growth of his own strength, right?"

"You can understand it as him taking the fake Penglai Immortal Elixir. His ability to become stronger through his own efforts will not be affected in any way."

"Then I'm relieved. I'll drag this guy back to the room and wait for him to wake up and play games with me."

"no problem."

Kaguya hummed a little tune and brought Mu Huai back to the boudoir. After closing the door, she smiled foolishly on her pretty face. She wiped her saliva and stretched out her claws towards Mu Huai's belly: "Hehehe, this guy Mu has a pretty good figure. Let me see how he's developing."

......

Reimu Hakurei sighed that it was another peaceful day. After taking a broom to simply sweep the entrance of the shrine where there was not a single fallen leaf, she decisively threw away the broom and ran to the kitchen to make a cup of tea, then sat down in the corridor of the shrine and started slacking off.

"You're so free! Why doesn't anyone come to give you money? Can't you see that I, a shrine maiden, am struggling to make ends meet?"

"If you're so short of money, how about I introduce you to a rich man?"

Reimu clutched the teacup tightly in her hand like a hamster guarding its food, and looked warily at Yakumo Yukari who was sitting next to her: "This is the last tea I have. If you want to drink it, you have to give me 100,000 yuan!"

Her stingy and money-hungry behavior made Yakumo Yukari sigh. Where did the innocent little girl who shouted "I want to become the strongest shrine maiden" go? How did she become such a pitiful appearance now?

It’s no wonder that Mu Huai is so resistant to getting engaged to Reimu. If she were in his place, she wouldn’t want to be entangled by the parasite Reimu either.

But then again, if he just keeps looking for a wife from another world and doesn't connect with the monsters in Gensokyo, that's not the development that Yakumo Yukari wants to see.

As the number of children of fortune brought back by Mu Huai increases, the Hakurei Great Barrier will gradually favor this chosen person. If conflicts arise between the residents of Pelican Town and the monsters of Gensokyo in the future, and he does not remain neutral as a mediator but instead favors Pelican Town, it may lead to a strange split like the Second Gensokyo.

For this reason, Yakumo Yukari specially investigated the pink APPs and colored APPs in Mu Huai's mobile phone. After confirming that there were many shrine-type books in them, she decided to let Reimu and Mu Huai get engaged.

Anyway, it’s enough to have a name here. As for whether the two of them can spark love, it all depends on God’s will.

Yakumo Yukari whispered something to Reimu, and the huge bow on Reimu's head stood up instantly, her eyes turned into gold coins, and her saliva flowed like a waterfall.

"Ahem, I know what you said. I'm not the kind of person who would bow down for a few pieces of silver, but he has a hundred pieces of silver... I think I can still consider it."

"Then I look forward to your performance at the banquet."

After watching Yakumo Yukari leave with her umbrella, Reimu walked into the shrine while muttering softly.

"I need to think carefully about what to do. Maybe I should ask Marisa for some advice. At worst, I can give her 10% of the money... No, half!"

......

Mu Huai thought that he seemed to have fainted too many times recently. He had just left Eientei and was told by Kaguya that he had become a top-notch technological warrior. If he wanted to increase his physical strength, he had to find Eight Senses Eirin to take drugs.

But it's not without benefits. At least he is now like a certain immortal turkey whom he has never met. No matter what he does, he will not die.

Speak of the devil and he will appear. Kaguya's only designated enemy and her "good friend" who is close to her physically and mentally, Fujiwara no Mokou, stands in front of Mu Huai.

After her sharp red eyes scanned him, she grinned like a delinquent and said, "Hey, what's your relationship with Kaguya? Why do you still smell like her?"

"Meihong, I'm just a Kamen Rider passing by. Can you please not involve me when you're seeking revenge on Kaguya?"

"Wow~ Knowing what happened between us, you must have a good relationship with her. And this familiar aura..." Fujiwara no Mohong sniffed, revealing a fanatical smile as if she had found her prey: "You also took the Penglai Immortal Elixir? Very good, let's have a fight!"

"Can we not fight?"

"no!"

The scorching flames instantly burned the surrounding bamboo into charcoal. Fujiwara no Momoko couldn't wait to kill Mu Huai. As a senior, she had to teach the newcomer well after so many years.

Mu Huai looked helpless as he took out the Faiz belt that Kaguya had remade and said, "Then let's fight."

“Stanging By!”

"Transform!"

The Lost Bamboo Forest welcomed explosions and flames after a long time. The rabbits in the Lost Bamboo Forest moved away from the center of the battle in an orderly manner, obviously they were used to this kind of thing.

The explosions gradually subsided until night fell over the earth.

In the center of the dark red scorched earth, Fujiwara no Moeko sat contentedly in front of the campfire, her arms around Mu Huai's shoulders. A hot pot full of rabbit meat was hanging above the fire.

"I didn't expect you to look so handsome, but you can be so fierce and powerful in a fight. You're right up my alley. After this hot pot, we'll be brothers!"

PS: I need to research the name of the Nine Dragons Power.

Chapter 42: Fighting with the Black and White Thieves

Fight and become a manly red brother.

Mu Huai summed up his gains today in this way. When he returned home, he found that Akane Shinjo and Rika Takarada were nowhere to be seen, and there was a note on the table.

Because Mu Huai was knocked unconscious, the two decided to return to the Gulit world to reflect on his mistakes for a while, so that he would have time to recuperate. The daily necessities would be delivered to him by the little monster girl.

Mu Huai felt that there was no need to feel guilty. After all, he was not the kind of person who held grudges. He had just squeezed him unconscious. He had no thoughts of revenge at all. He just felt that he was lacking love and wanted to turn into a pile driver and dig something out.

Now that my wives are gone, who will fill the gap in love that I lack?

After taking a bath to calm Niu Niu down, Mu Huai began to think about how to develop during this free time.

Making money and collecting materials are undoubtedly the top priorities. Tomorrow he will make a fishing rod and try fishing. He also needs to water the parsnip seeds. The collection of wood and stones can be done while cleaning up the area around the farm.

Another thing that concerned Mu Huai was that his cooking skills had not improved at all until now. Generally speaking, Stardew Valley's skills improved very quickly in the early stages, but slowed down in the middle stages.

He has cooked many meals, but his cooking skills haven't even improved by one level yet, which is a bit too strange.

"Does it mean that to improve my cooking skills I have to use the vegetables I grow myself?"

When you think about it this way, it makes perfect sense that his skill level hasn't changed.

"We're still short of money and people... Let's focus on the things at hand."

Mu Huai turned off the lights and went to bed, planning to get up early tomorrow to go fishing.

Before he fell asleep, the window of the wooden house suddenly opened automatically, and a pointed magic hat slowly rose from the window sill. The curious golden eyes were particularly bright in the dark night, and it peeked at the situation in the house with a thieving look.

As the famous black and white thief in Gensokyo, Marisa Kirisame naturally came to visit the new neighbor. The treasure hunting radar in her heart was beeping, and her eyes were cast straight at the mobile phone charging on the bedside table.

"It's a strange square box. I think it will fetch a good price!"

Marisa climbed through the window and tiptoed towards the bedside table. Although the wooden house looked very simple from the outside, the decoration and some things inside were something she had never seen before. It was a bit like the technological creations that Eien-tei discarded from time to time.

As a professional thief, she has sophisticated stealing skills and a helpful spirit. The young man on the bed sleeps so soundly at night without locking the doors and windows, which shows that he has a sinister heart.
