Psychic Drawing?
You can draw things from your imagination onto paper?
Well for certain people, it might be valuable.
But for ordinary folks, it's completely useless, isn't it?
She really had no idea how to develop such a power.
Fujiwara Chika: [Too bad, it doesn't seem to have any combat capabilities.]
takumi was also watching the chat. He chuckled at what Fujiwara Chika said.
No combat capabilities? That's not true. It all depends on how you use it. There's no such thing as a useless ability, right?
takumi: [No!] [If there are abilities that can be activated on paper in the future, this psychic drawing power could be really strong.] [Like in that world of legendary eyes if someone had this power, wouldn't they basically be a tag-printing machine?]
Fujiwara Chika: [The 600 billion yen rich lady!!] [Got it!!]
She suddenly understood. Yes, if that's the case, this power could be very useful. As long as there's enough paper, couldn't you create infinite prints?
takumi: [You could even become the counterfeit king!] [Printing money would be too easy.]
As he typed that, the corners of takumi mouth curled into a smile.
Useless? Not at all this ability had loads of potential. Drawing whatever one sees.
In modern society, printing money is rather straightforward, right?
Fujiwara Chika and Sagiri were both speechless at takumi interpretation.
Akeno: [If necessary, I can provide some support.] [We have certain spells that can only be activated on paper.] [Like the flyers we hand out right now.]
With that, Akeno sent a red envelope in the chat a sample of her work flyer. It was a devil's flyer, one that could grant wishes.
If Sagiri learned a few more techniques, this ability could become really handy.
Fujiwara Chika: [Counterfeiting?] [Hey! You want to send Sagiri to jail?!] [Д]
She was horrified by takumi ideas. Were those words even legal to say? He's clearly encouraging criminal behavior!!
Sagiri: [Picture] [Like this?]
She had actually drawn a counterfeit bill and a U.S. dollar at that.
Fujiwara Chika was stunned seeing the image.
takumi: [Want me to get you some acid-free paper?] [I could conjure tons with just a thought.] [Let's tweak the details a bit and make a whole batch?]
He laughed. This was the true use of psychic drawing.
Fujiwara Chika: [....] [You jerk, stop corrupting Sagiri!!]
You're clearly seducing her into crime!
Akeno: [Emm... powerful in various ways.] [I'll look for magic or Taoist arts that normal people can use.] [For example, many Taoist talismans have to be drawn on paper.] [Combining that with Sagiri's ability could be amazing.]
Zhongli: [If needed, I have some.] [Whether you can learn them is another issue.] [Ideally, you should come to me so I can instruct you.]
Zhongli had been following the chat as well. Seeing what takumi said, he nodded.
Indeed, some talismans could definitely be used with such a power. This ability would be excellent for certain mystical systems.
Seeing everyone's input, Sagiri nodded thoughtfully. So her power was actually pretty useful after all.
Feeling touched, she quickly thanked everyone in the group.
Sagiri: [Thank you, everyone.] [But for now, I'll hold off. My ability is still weak.] [I'll revisit this when I become stronger.] [In the meantime, if everyone could upload those techniques to the shop, I'll buy them with points later.]
She was deeply moved, but this wasn't urgent. She'd buy the knowledge herself nothing should be taken for free.
Seeing this, Zhongli nodded. After some thought, he uploaded some of his immortal techniques to the system store. They included various talisman methods. The points required were minimal just enough that Sagiri could afford them.
takumi quickly used his own points to buy them all.
Knowledge items can be sold repeatedly, after all.
Zhongli could probably earn quite a few points with this.
Once purchased, the knowledge of those talismans instantly appeared in takumi mind.
He learned how to use energy to inscribe them on paper it came naturally to him.
"So that's how it works." "Knowledge items function like this?" "As long as you buy them, you'll know how to use them." "Since they're from Zhongli, it means he already mastered them." "If someone just got new knowledge and sold it to the group, it probably wouldn't come with understanding." "But Zhongli's uploads include his insights." "That's why they're so easy to learn." "Of course, you still need power. Without it, even if you know the theory, you won't be able to use it."
As he sorted through the knowledge in his head, takumi understood the system.
Knowledge items came in two types: One with full mastery and personal insights; The other was newly acquired and listed as-is.
If you can buy, always go for the fully mastered kind.
As long as you have the necessary energy, you can use them immediately.
"Once it's uploaded to the store, all you need is enough energy and you're set."
takumi It actually looked pretty solid.
He used Honkai energy to build it which made it even more powerful?
"Of course, Honkai energy really is omnipotent."
He played with it for a bit, then put it away.
His Honkai energy could be used to activate abilities from other worlds through the group chat.
Could it also replace mana to cast magic?
He'd have to test that later.
If it worked, then building entire systems based on Honkai energy would be significant.
After all, isn't that part of civilization's advancement?
You can't just let every system get jumbled and chaotic.
With that in mind,takumi checked his points again.
Then he pinged Akeno in the chat.
takumi : [Miss Akeno, could you upload some of your magic to the shop?] [I want to run an experiment.]
Seeing takumi's sudden request, Akeno was briefly surprised. But she didn't overthink it.
After a moment, she uploaded several of her mastered spells.
Akeno: [I don't know many spells.] [Most of them are lightning-based.] [See if they work for your purpose.]
As she finished, several lightning-type spells appeared in the system store.
All related to thunder and lightning drawn from her innate bloodline talent.
Chapter 9: I'll Ask AgainAnyone Want to Immigrate?
All the lightning-based spells Akeno uploaded were immediately purchased by Takumi. Points circulated through the group, eventually landing in Akeno's hands.
She didn't keep them, though. She used them to buy the cultivation manuals Zhongli had listed. Then Zhongli used his new points to buy some of the weapons Takumi had uploaded.
Clearly, Zhongli was very interested in them.
Currently, the system store only contained items uploaded by group members. So points could only circulate among them. In the future, once the group store starts offering its own items, points will have more diverse uses.
Right now, it seemed limitedbut according to all the novels, group functions unlock gradually as the members grow stronger.
After purchasing the spells, Takumi instantly mastered them. He then tested whether Honkai energy could power magic.
Even with a low-tier lightning spell, the effect was impressive.
Takumi watched it unfold, intrigued. It had worked.
So, Honkai energy really was compatible with magic systems?
He recorded a short video of his test and uploaded it to the group.
Takumi:
[Video.avi] "Honkai energy really can do anything."
"@EveryoneI'll ask again. Anyone want to immigrate?"
Group members who were still exploring their new powers were shocked.
The spell's power was far beyond expectations.
Akeno was particularly surprised. She knew that spelland it definitely wasn't supposed to be that strong.
Fujiwara Chika:
"Thanks, but my parents are alive and well. I've got friends here. I can't immigrate yet!"
Sagiri:
"Give it up, Takumi-nii. No one wants to immigrate right now!"
Akeno:
"Is Honkai energy really that powerful? That much of a boost?!"
She ignored the immigration invite and focused entirely on the energy.
Takumi:
"Maybe it's because of the chat group? Any knowledge I purchasewhether magic or talisman-basedworks using Honkai energy."
"It's like the group integrated all energy systems across worlds. As long as you have energy, you can activate anything."
He explained his recent experiment.
That was why he'd asked Akeno to upload her spells in the first place.
Akeno was stunned. Honkai energy was stronger than magic? She was definitely tempted now.
Could she possibly change her energy type?
Her eyes lit up.
If she could convert her magic power into Honkai energy, that would boost her abilities drastically. Maybe even amplify every aspect of her power.
Akeno:
"Takumi-kun, do you think I could convert my magic into Honkai energy?"
She was excited.
If that was possible, her power would skyrocket.
Takumi thought for a moment.
Takumi:
"It should be doablebut only if you come to my world."
"Once you're here, I'll give you a Honkai energy seed. Then we can convert your magic into Honkai energy."
He believed it would work.
Even if her home world lacked Honkai energy, she could possibly absorb it once she activated the seed. Worst case, the chat group might intervene.
This chat group clearly wasn't ordinary.
Akeno nodded thoughtfully.
If world-hopping becomes possible, she would definitely visit Takumi's world.
The other group members started discussing it too.
Fujiwara Chika:
"Would it be safe to bring Honkai energy to another world? Isn't it basically a civilization-level virus?"
Takumi:
"You're overthinking it. If this were the original setting, maybe."
"But in this worldI am Honkai."
"Why would I destroy a civilization? The stronger the civilization, the stronger I get."
He wasn't evil. He simply wanted to grow stronger.
He was the source of Honkai in his world, after all.
Sagiri:
"Takumi-nii is a nice Honkai!"
Fujiwara Chika:
"Ah, so it's a symbiotic thing? Got it."
Right, Honkai in Takumi's world was entirely under his control.
Zhongli, who had been quietly reading the chat, grew more intrigued by Honkai energy.
According to Chika, both Teyvat and Honkai came from the same conceptual root. So maybe their world had Honkai energy too.
But using it might be dangerous.
Immigration...
Zhongli began considering it seriously.
His world was starting to show signs of danger. If things worsened, maybe he could move Liyue over entirely.
It was a potential escape route.
Of course, he wasn't sure what kind of cost would be involved in relocating a whole nation.
But Takumi's worldif it eventually becomes accessiblewould likely attract countless people from countless worlds.
It would become a spectacular civilization.
And since Takumi's power grows with civilization, that only made him stronger.
Zhongli made up his mind.
Someday, he would share Teyvat's knowledge with Takumi. Alchemy, ancient loreit could all be valuable.
Even celestial texts from the immortal clans.
Consider it an investment.
...
Meanwhile, Takumi knew none of this.
He was still chatting with Chika and Sagiri.
He was the only person in his world.
Besides browsing the chat group, he had nothing else to do.
Takumi:
"By the way, Chika-chan, Sagiri-chando you want to know your life story?"
They both knew the group members were all from games or anime.
So they'd understand what he meant.
The moment they saw his message, both their eyes lit up.
Chapter 10: Russian Female Executive Joins the Group Chat
Takumi's words sparked the curiosity of both girls.
After entering the group, Chika Fujiwara had already posted some information about the lore of Honkai and Star Rail. However, she never expected that in another world, she might actually be a character from an anime or game.
Now that Takumi brought it up, both she and Sagiri became even more curious.
Fujiwara Chika:
"Tell me! What's my world like?"
She was eager to find out what kind of anime her world might be from.
Sagiri:
"I'm curious too."
Sagiri was visibly nervous.
What if it was some... adult visual novel?
The thought made her extremely uneasy.
Other group members were also watching this unfold.
Most members already knew the origin of their worlds and their personal life paths, but a few still didn'tlike Sagiri, Chika, and Akeno. As for Eucliwood, her world existed in the anime known to Chika and Sagiri since it was an older series.
After discovering her future, Eucliwood chose to isolate herself. Some things were best left untouched.
Akeno's world didn't exist in the anime known to the other girlsmaybe it had been censored?
Either way, they hadn't seen it. Otherwise, they would definitely recognize her. Especially Sagiri.
After all, Akeno's world's main girls had very... questionable behavior.
Takumi:
"I'll DM you the info. Your worlds aren't gamesthey're anime. Better to keep some things private."
"Aside from Zhongli and Himeko, anyone else want to know about their world?"
"I know everyone's backgrounds."
Akeno quickly responded:
"Please send me my world's info too."
She was very concerned about her future trajectory.
Only Akeno responded. Eucliwood remained silent, already informed of her potential fate by Sagiri. Honestly, if immigration were possible, she would move immediately. She might be the only one truly ready.
Once confirmed, Takumi privately messaged the girls their respective anime titles.
Then, in the main chat:
Takumi:
"All sent. Take your time reading."
"Not sure how accurate everything is."
"For all I know, maybe the protagonist was gender-swapped."
"But the general outline should be close."
"Unless someone like me crossed over or world fusion happened."
He stretched his back after sending those out.
Everything important was said.
In this group, things were relaxed. No need to worry about powerful deities.
Just treat the members like eccentric online friends.
Having finished that, Takumi turned his attention to food.
Opening a spatial rift, he disappeared, only to return carrying a large boar-like magical beast, along with vegetables and fruits. All freshly gathered.
In this world, such resources were plentiful.
Thinking about having to hunt every day, Takumi decided to set up automated farms and ranches. He couldn't be hunting forever.
