But she couldn't bring herself to do it.
Gabriel groaned, lying flat on the ground.
Next to her was Vignette.
Vignette gave Gabriel a helpless look. She'd already heard what was happening.
The chat group situation had astonished her.
Even Satania was jealous.
She thought it was unfair. A cheat like that should only go to a true great demon like herself, not Gabriel.
They even had a fight over it.
Of course, Gabriel beat her with a pillow.
"Quit the group then! I support you. But it doesn't look like there's a quit button."
"Or should I ask the boss to kick you out?"
Takumi arrived just in time to hear Gabriel complaining.
He was speechless. Someone actually wanted to leave the chat group?
As his voice echoed, a magic circle appeared in Gabriel's room.
Takumi slowly emerged from it.
Gabriel didn't even bother getting upshe stayed on the floor.
Vignette, however, stood up nervously.
"Hello!!" she said, bowing deeply.
Takumi greeted her warmly.
"Hello, Miss Vignette. Want to be an angel? I can help you become one."
Looking at this real angel, Takumi figured Vignette might enjoy being reborn in his world.
As for Gabriel, she might as well become a demon.
Things they couldn't do hereTakumi's world could make them happen.
Chapter 516: Then Why Dont You Go Find It?
Gabriel lay on the floor, glaring at Takumi's smug expression.
He could speak so gently with Vignette, yet he was always so rude to her. That contrast made her pout with dissatisfaction.
Takumi looked down at Gabriel lying there and kicked her lightly. "Seeing the holy light."
This girl had zero sense of dignity. She was just sprawled on the ground, wearing only a sports jacket, no skirt.
Gabriel looked at him flatly. "So what if you saw it? It's just holy light."
She wasn't fazed in the slightest. She even scratched herself lazily.
"Your so-called holy light doesn't do anything to me. It doesn't censor anything."
Wowshe was really just giving up, huh? Classic Gabriel.
Only when Takumi said that did Gabriel react, sitting up and hiding behind the table to shield herself.
Vignette, watching all this, couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth. She felt secondhand embarrassment. Nothis was just shameless!
"Get to work already! Don't just hang out in my room!"
Gabriel gritted her teeth, trying to shoo him away.
Get out!
If he was here to move her world, then hurry up and do it.
Takumi, seeing how flustered she was, chuckled to himself.
"Alright then. I'll talk to you later once I'm done."
After saying goodbye to the two girls, he vanished on the spot.
He had to leave quicklyLailah was on her way.
Noactually, she had already arrived.
Right after Takumi vanished, Lailah appeared in Gabriel's room. She had sensed his arrival earlier and planned to drop by to say hi. But instead, she had witnessed her sister's complete lack of shame.
That was itshe couldn't let this go.
Upon entering Gabriel's room and realizing Takumi was gone, her gaze turned sharp and landed on Gabriel.
Her eyes grew increasingly stern.
"Looks like I've let you run wild for too long, Gabriel!!"
She knew her sister had changed, but she hadn't intervened. Now it was clear she'd been too lenient.
You've embarrassed all angels!
"S-Sis!!"
Gabriel panicked at the sight of her older sister.
But Lailah said nothing and immediately began scolding her foolish sister.
Screams echoed throughout the room.
Vignette simply watched silently as Gabriel got a thorough lesson. Honestly, she thought Gabriel needed it.
Gabriel: [Damn it!!] [You've screwed me over again!!] [@Takumi, damn you!!] [You lured my sister here again!!]
She blamed Takumi for getting beaten.
Takumi: [What does that have to do with me?] [You brought that on yourself.]
Takumi, now outside the world, saw Gabriel's messages and couldn't help but laugh.
He left quicklythat's why Lailah didn't hold back.
If he'd stayed, maybe Gabriel could've avoided it. She might've gotten punished later, but not on the spot.
But with only Vignette present, getting beaten was inevitable.
Sisters don't need a reason to beat each other up.
Gabriel: [Ugh!!] [So unlucky!!] [o(ЇЇ)o]
Takumi had screwed her over again. What rotten luck.
Chika Fujiwara: [I want to see a livestream of Gabriel getting beat up!]
Sagiri: [Same!]
Saten Ruiko: [Same!]
Megumi Kato: [Same!]
The group chat was full of chaos. Everyone wanted to watch Gabriel getting schooled.
Unfortunately, she hadn't started a livestream.
Takumi glanced at the rowdy bunch in the chat and chuckled to himself.
But he didn't linger. He had work to do.
He began packing up Gabriel's world.
As the entire world was being sealed up, many of the angels inside sensed the change.
But they had been mentally prepared.
In fact, they were excited.
They would finally get to meet angels from other worlds.
Last time, Gabriel had come alone, but her power had awed many. Now, they'd get to see even more.
How could they not be thrilled?
Even the demons in the underworld caught wind of it.
The humble souls of the netherworld weren't alarmedinstead, they were eager.
They couldn't wait to see Takumi's world.
The moment they heard the news, they were overjoyed.
They were curious about how devils from other worlds misbehaved.
Maybe it would lead to some fun cross-cultural mischief.
Takumi finished packing the world and vanished.
Back in his world, he began deploying Gabriel's world into place.
As Takumi worked, several figures ran over.
"Hahaha~! A new world again?"
"Want me to help?"
"Give me some coordinates, and I'll bring a world back for you."
Aha grinned as he saw Takumi placing the world.
He couldn't resist getting involved.
He was enthusiastic as always.
Takumi rolled his eyes.
"If you're that eager, why don't you find a world yourself? I'll sponsor you a spacecraftyou can explore the endless void to your heart's content."
Since visiting the Little Garden, Aha had really let loose. Takumi also sensed that Aha had grown significantly stronger.
Same with the God of Warafter training in the Little Garden, their powers had skyrocketed.
"Yeah, no thanks. That sounds too boring. Maybe Dark Handsome would enjoy drifting in infinite dimensions, but not Aha. Aha likes crowds!"
Aha refused instantly.
If Takumi said that, it wasn't fun anymore.
He wasn't like Dark Handsomehe couldn't just float there doing nothing.
That kind of life was way too dull.
It wasn't Aha's style at all.
"Suit yourself. Now scramgo play somewhere else."
Takumi gave him a dismissive look and ignored him.
The more attention you gave Aha, the more annoying he got.
So better not to indulge him!
After that, Takumi went back to work.
Once Gabriel's world was fixed in place, Takumi began creating the connecting portals.
Aha, naturally, tagged along and dove into Gabriel's world.
But instead of heading to Earth, he flew into outer space.
Lately, Aha enjoyed wandering through the galaxies of different universes, poking fun at the aliens there.
That had basically become his daily hobby in Takumi's world.
Chapter 517: Take It and Run, No One Can Stop You
Aha was having the time of his life. He didn't even want to go back. In fact, he was hoping Takumi would move the Honkai world over right away. That way, he could show off his newfound strength to those star god little brothers.
As for going back? Not happening anytime soon. He knew well that if he returned, Takumi probably wouldn't let him come back again. And who knew when Takumi would go get the Honkai world anyway? No one had told him anything. All he could do was wait.
Even if he wanted to cause mischief, he didn't dare do it on Takumi's planet. He could only stir up trouble among other aliens. If he weren't afraid of being kicked out, he'd already be raising hell in Takumi's world.
Takumi didn't bother with Aha. After setting up Gabriel's world, he went inside to construct the portals. He placed a gateway directly in Gabriel's city.
As soon as it appeared, the people in the real world were utterly terrified. What was going on? Why did a massive structure suddenly appear out of nowhere?
Before they could react, Prometheus took control of the global network. Mechanical constructs appeared at the gate. People were stunned.
Then angels and demonsbeings straight out of mythologystarted appearing. They all headed toward the portal.
The world exploded into chaos.
No one could believe angels were real. If they hadn't shown up themselves, no one would've ever believed they were living among so many angels.
Once Prometheus explained the situation, the public got excited. A link to another world? One where they could gain all kinds of benefits?
Everyone lost their minds.
Some people even considered launching an invasion. But that thought was quickly crushed.
Invasion? With what strength?
Did they not see what those angels were capable of? And they were using robots as guards too. Clearly, this was a different league altogether.
So, everyone obediently lined up to enter.
Japan was targeted as well. After all, the portal was placed there. So naturally, other countries demanded access. There was no way Japan would be allowed to monopolize the gateway.
In most worlds, Japan lost even its name as a nation. Other countries simply wouldn't allow them to hog the entrance.
Unless your world had someone like Tomoyo, Takumi wouldn't bother helping you. And you? You don't qualify!
...
After finishing Gabriel's world, Takumi hopped into the group chat. He informed Gabriel that the portal was open. He invited them to come over.
Takumi: [@Gabriel, the portal is open. Welcome to Heaven for study abroad!]
Grinning, he sent the message.
Gabriel instantly exploded in anger. Was this guy trying to trap her again?
She didn't even want to attend a regular school, and now he wanted her to study in Heaven? Not a chance!
Gabriel: [Here's a blast from the Apocalypse Trumpet!!] [Who wants to go to school?!] [[?Д?]]
She refused. No school. No studying. She just wanted to chill and play games.
Takumi: [I'm telling your sister!]
Gabriel: [Get lost!!]
Kaguya Houraisan: [Lol~! @Takumi, Tsukuyomi asks when you're bringing her world over.] [@Gabriel, come game with me! Let's team up!]
Takumi: [Don't panic, I'll do it soon.]
Gabriel: [I'm coming!!] [@Takumi, I'm warning youdon't pull any tricks!! I don't want to go to school!]
Seeing Kaguya's message, Gabriel's eyes lit up. She decided to head over to Takumi's world.
Even though he'd tricked her twice and she'd just been beaten by her sister, She still couldn't resist the allure.
Takumi's world was too advanced. So much fun stuff. She was deeply tempted.
So when Kaguya invited her, she agreed immediately.
Without hesitation, she started moving. Her sister had probably already left by now.
Gabriel checked her phone. The internet was buzzing with news of angels. Everyone knew now.
Angels weren't a secret anymore.
That meant she could openly reveal her identity and use her divine powers freely.
With that thought, Gabriel gathered her friends and headed for the portal.
Takumi, after messaging Gabriel, returned home.
He quickly set up another portalthis one in Mondstadt.
Seeing the new gate, Venti was dumbfounded.
As soon as Takumi finished, Venti ran out.
"Eh? You made a portal in Mondstadt too? What world is it this time?"
Venti was super curious. He knew Takumi had been linking other worlds. Inazuma already had one, so it was only natural for Mondstadt to get one too.
Eventually, every city would probably have one.
"A world with angels. You'll see soon. Make sure to seize the opportunity."
"Whether or not you can afford more wine depends on this!"
Takumi spoke seriously.
Venti paused.
"Is it possible I don't need money for wine anymore?"
"As long as I go to the Gourmet World, I can drink all I want."
Since arriving in Takumi's world, Venti no longer worried about hunger.
Meals in the Gourmet World were free. If he found a wine-rich region, he could drink for free too.
To Venti, it was paradise. He just had to restock occasionally.
Dimensional storage? Yeah, he had that too.
...
Hearing that, Takumi went silent. He gave Venti a long stare.
"Bringing you here was the biggest bargain you ever got!"
Indeed, Venti had struck gold. He now lived carefree without spending a coin.
Who would believe that?
Even if Venti had no money, he lived comfortably.
After all, he wasn't weak. As one of the original gods, he was powerful.
He might not dominate the Gourmet World, But self-preservation was no issue.
He could grab what he wanted and run. No one could stop him.
Chapter 518: Do You Know Sakura?
Venti chuckled sheepishly.
"Yeah, I really struck it rich here." "I absolutely love your place." "People talk so nicely, food and drinks are free..." "It's paradise!"
He couldn't help but sigh with satisfaction.
Takumi had nothing to say to that. What could he say? His world really had been far too kind to Venti.
After chatting for a bit with this wanderer, Takumi left. Not long after, visitors began arrivingled by a group of angels.
Seeing this, Venti quietly disappeared from sight to observe from the shadows. He was extremely curious about their world. He'd seen angels and demons before, but these were different. Naturally, he was eager to watch closely.
Back home, Takumi found Tomoyo already in his house. As he stepped through the door, she greeted him with a smile.
"Welcome back."
Tomoyo looked so natural in that moment, it surprised Takumi. If you didn't know better, you'd think she was the lady of the house.
"Tomoyo? When did you get here?"
Wasn't she busy back home?
"Hehe~! I had some free time, so I came over to play." "The spice negotiations are already settled." "We'll make a huge profit once we start exporting them." "Our world's financial issues are basically solved."
Tomoyo looked genuinely cheerful. Her biggest problem had been taken care of. From now on, she wouldn't need to be so hands-onjust supervise occasionally while the ministers managed things. That freed her up to visit Takumi more often.
"I see~? Well, congrats!"
Takumi was sincerely happy for her.
