With that kind of soul framework, how could the world not be fooled? The Final Hope of humanity came, and the world happily handed over its secretsonly for Takumi to instantly become the Ultimate Trial of Humanity.
What a guy. Gave the treasure to a thief.
Takumi: [How is that my fault?!]
Not his fault at all. Things were already like this.
Bronya: [How are things going over there?] [Is everything progressing smoothly?] [Did you get the technomagic yet?] [If you did, send some my way. I want to study it.]
Seeing that Takumi still had time to chat, Bronya immediately asked for data. Since he already got the goods, he should hand it over. She was very curious about technomagicmaybe it could improve her abilities.
Takumi saw Bronya's message and didn't refuse. He packed up some technomagic information and sent it over.
Takumi: [Bronya's exclusive red packet] [Go ahead and study it.] [It's fascinatingespecially mass dispersal!] [Theoretically, it could blow up an entire universe.]
Mass dispersal: converting mass directly into energy. With mass multiplied by the square of the speed of light, just 50mg of water could release the energy of 1,000 tons of TNT.
Imagine casting a waterball spell and triggering itit might blow yourself up instantly.
This had incredible potential. The only question was whether it could be used properly.
Bronya received Takumi's red packet and claimed it immediately.
Bronya: [Got it!] [I'm going to study it now.] [Come back soon.]
After getting what she wanted, Bronya didn't linger in the chat and went straight to research.
Takumi sighed. Bronya had truly become a research maniac.
He didn't think much of it and started chatting with others.
Takumi: [@Zhongli, old man, when do you plan on moving over?]
Was Zhongli really that free now? Takumi casually asked when he planned to move over. He needed people, after all.
Zhongli: [The entire migration will be complete within half a month.] [I'll be the last to leave.] [I recently revived some old friends.] [We'll head over together.]
Zhongli was feeling cheerfulhis old friends had been brought back to life.
Takumi was confused.
Takumi: [You've got resurrection abilities now?]
When did the old man gain the power to revive the dead?
Zhongli: [Tianquan gave me some magic, and I've mastered it recently.]
Zhongli didn't hide anything and explained the source.
Reading this, Takumi was speechless.
Takumi: [Abuse of power, huh?!]
No wonder. It was Ningguang's doing.
Ningguang was managing his world, so of course certain spells were accessible to her. He just didn't expect her to pass them on to Zhongli.
Ningguang: [I just wanted to revive all the former Liyue Qixing to make them work again. What's the problem with that?]
Takumi was stunned.
Wow!! Pulling the dead back to life just to make them work again?
Truly... only you, Ningguang. Only you.
Chapter 453: Taking the Entire Clan and Dipping Out
What a classic capitalist move.
Ningguang was now planning to have Zhongli revive all the previous generations of the Liyue Qixing and send them to another world to shine again.
Because of that, she simply gave Takumi's resurrection magic to Zhongli so he could bring some people back. Preferably the former Qixing membersshe was in desperate need of capable hands.
As for how Zhongli used it, she didn't care. Eventually, they would all be sent to her.
Takumi: [No problem. Good job.]
Takumi had no objections. Anyone qualified to become one of the Liyue Qixing was definitely competent.
He never doubted Zhongli's judgment and knew the old man wouldn't revive just anyone. He'd select either outstanding individuals or his trusted old friends.
Takumi saw it as a huge winmore capable helpers for him.
Meanwhile, back at Mayumi's house, her father had returned. As soon as he got home, Mayumi told him everything.
"You're saying someone from another world invited you to his worldand you can even bring family?"
Her father's eyes widened in disbelief. Was this a joke?
Seeing his skepticism, Mayumi brought out the terminal.
"Prometheus, could you explain everything to my father? He doesn't really believe in otherworldly stuff."
As she finished speaking, a projection appeared before herit was Prometheus.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Nanakusa. I'm the super AI Prometheus. Let me tell you about our world."
Immediately, multiple screens popped up in front of him.
"Our world is a multiverseover a dozen interconnected worlds."
"Besides humans, we have many other racesgods, elves, dragons, angels, demons, and more. All those beings from myths exist in our world."
"Technologically, we've reached unprecedented levelsclose to unifying the universe."
"As for magic, we possess several top-tier systems. Many legendary spells exist in our world too."
"Every immigrant receives a superpower serum that grants unmatched magical potential."
...
Prometheus kept explaining, showcasing the many wonders of their world.
Mayumi's father was stunnedand deeply impressed.
Such a place actually existed?
As Prometheus went on, he realized how easy it was to become powerful in Takumi's world.
You could learn magic. Or, if that wasn't your thing, you could consume gourmet cells and become a food huntereating your way to power.
Assuming the food didn't eat you first.
To many, Takumi's world sounded like paradise.
Seeing all this, Mayumi's father was genuinely tempted. He turned to his daughter.
"Mayumi, what do you think?"
Her mind was still spinning.
She still couldn't fully believe that Takumi was from another world. And now he'd invited her there.
Should she agree? Or refuse?
She couldn't decide.
It was tempting but the thought of leaving her friends and classmates behind saddened her. Still, if she didn't go, would she regret it?
She was seriously torn.
Her father saw her hesitation and understood instantlyhe knew his daughter well.
After thinking for a moment, he asked,
"Did that otherworldly visitor say we could bring others too?"
"Then let's discuss it with a few other families. Moving to another world sounds promising, right?"
Mayumi was clearly tempted. So was he.
If she couldn't decide, then he'd help.
Go!
If they could bring friends and family, why not?
The world was growing increasingly unstable. Seeking safety was only natural.
And honestly, he suspected the recent upheaval was orchestrated by that very otherworldly visitor.
It all lined up too perfectly.
Mayumi's eyes lit up.
Yes. Bring friends too!
If they were going, they might as well go together.
What an opportunity.
With the decision made, the father-daughter duo started contacting others.
Soon, various influential families began reaching out to each other in secret.
At first, many didn't believe it.
But Prometheus changed their minds.
Online, Prometheus was basically a goddoing things that their world's tech couldn't even dream of.
Mayumi messaged all her close friends.
She told them to decide for themselves.
If they wanted to go, they'd go togetherbringing their families along to a greater stage.
A chance to move to another world stood before them.
And many chose to accept it.
If they could bring loved ones, there were no real worries left.
The next day, Mayumi contacted Takumi.
She told him their decision.
Takumi responded and told them to be ready.
He'd be taking them all soon.
Takumi was already in the final stages.
This world had stopped feeding him information.
But it didn't matterhe had everything he needed.
No reason to linger.
He could leave anytime.
Mayumi's group began preparations.
They packed their most valuable magical research.
Then they started converting their assets into high-value items.
Chapter 454: This Is Absolutely Necessary!!
Once Mayumi and the others were ready, Takumi decided it was time to return.
With everything settled and everyone gathered, Takumi took action and transferred them all into the imaginary number space. After bringing along everyone he intended to, he returned to his own world.
However, shortly after Takumi's departure, war broke out in that world. The moment he left, conflict erupted.
News had spread about the disappearance of certain families. Additionally, quite a few individuals had been abducted.
This meant internal power structures had been weakened. With so many people taken, many influential factions had lost considerable strength.
Given this opportunity, others pounced. Warfare ignited immediately.
...
What happened in the world of The Irregular at Magic High School no longer had anything to do with Takumi. He was now back in his own world.
Takumi reappeared at his home.
Upon seeing him return, the elemental spirit kings hurried to greet him.
"Welcome back!"
Takumi smiled and waved at them.
"You've gotten used to it here, right? Anything you're not comfortable with?"
He had been away for a while, and they had stayed in his place for several days. It was time to check whether they had adapted to life here.
Sensing their condition, he noticed their divine energy had fully transformed into Honkai energy. They now bore the mark of his world.
"Nothing uncomfortable."
"This world is wonderful."
The Holy Spirit King was thoroughly satisfied with this world. It was far better than the one they came from. She had even met with some angels and forged a few partnerships.
Soon, all spirits with holy attributes would move to the Heavenly Realm.
"As long as you're comfortable. I have things to do, I'll be back later."
Takumi still had many people to settle in, so he didn't stay long at home. After a quick greeting, he left.
He arrived at Hope City and began constructing houses outside the main district. Once finished, he released all the people he had brought overincluding those he had forcibly taken.
As the crowd emerged, they grew tense, readying magic in their hands.
But before they could act, they realized their powers had been sealed.
Rifts opened in the void, and one after another, mechanical Kai species stepped out.
Seeing this, fear struck the crowd.
"Calm down, everyone. I've got good newswelcome to the new world.
"Your relatives and friends are already here, so there's nothing to worry about.
"From now on, just live well in this world."
"Prometheus, I leave the rest to you."
Takumi silently cast mental suggestions over the group, helping them accept this reality and settle into their new lives.
After that, he winked at Mayumi and sent her a private message before leaving.
Reading the message, Mayumi's eyes lit up.
"Familiarize yourself with this world first. We'll be in touch later."
She nodded. Indeed, the best thing to do now was get to know this world. She could reconnect with Takumi after that.
Meanwhile, Prometheus began uploading the identities of the newcomers into the system. Terminals were distributed, and orientation commenced.
The people Takumi had abducted slowly began to understand what kind of world they had arrived in. Many were stunned.
They had really been taken to another world?
Shiba Tatsuya was utterly baffled but quickly calmed down.
Why?
Holding the terminal, he quickly began gathering information.
Though shocked, everyone slowly began to accept reality. They had no choice. There was no way back.
Some even thought maybe this new world wasn't such a bad deal.
It was ridiculous, yet oddly compelling.
They began settling into the houses arranged by Prometheus. Basic living supplies were provided. Even a bit of money was distributed.
Going forward, if they wanted more funds, they'd need to work or become gourmet hunters in other worlds. If that failed, they could sell their own magic.
Although Takumi already had most of their spells, it was okay for them to sell to the public.
Takumi didn't restrict that.
After all, there were buyers.
This was one of the quickest ways for people from other worlds to exchange magic for currency.
Once settled, they began exploring this world. Some even wandered out immediately to see what Takumi's world had to offer.
With friends and relatives brought along, there wasn't much left to worry about.
This was practically a full clan migration.
Now that they were here, it was time to understand the lay of the landand the laws. If anything went wrong, no one would be there to bail them out.
They had nothing here. Their identities from the old world didn't carry over. They had to start from scratch.
...
After arranging everything, Takumi went to the research institute.
Velvie wasn't aroundshe was still assisting Herta with equipment production.
She wouldn't be back for a while.
But Takumi wasn't there for herhe came to find Bronya.
Bronya was with Lala, and by the time Takumi arrived, they had already completed the CAD prototype.
Seeing him, Bronya glanced up and said:
"Our terminals are perfect for converting into CADs.
"If we do that, Prometheus will be able to cast spells too.
"The more terminals there are, the more spells Prometheus can cast.
"After all, all of these are controlled by Prometheus.
"I think this is very promising.
"Some spells are just like programsyou engrave them in, and when you want to activate them, you just do it.
"So straightforward and effective."
Bronya explained her research in detail.
She was already working on transforming the terminals to function as CADs. That way, even Prometheus could use them to cast magic.
It could even allow centralized control of everyone's terminals.
This was absolutely necessary.
Even though Prometheus was already powerful...
Chapter 455: Youll Never Know How Powerful Prometheus Is Now
Prometheus controlled the entire network of Takumi's world. She also had complete control over the moon. More than just a server, the moon in the sky was also a spaceship. If needed, it could transform and be used as such.
Beyond that, her core was incredibly powerful. Prometheus had optimized herself countless times. After Takumi brought back the Mecha species, she essentially became one of them.
She could use all forms of magic. If all the terminals were upgraded into CADs, she could then control everyone's magic usage. Just thinking about it was terrifyingan entire world of magic soldiers. Wasn't that just a magical network?
