Is It Too Late to Leave the Chat Group?

Book 1: Chapter 39: Alaya’s Mission Request

Faillen Angel Gabriel: It’s still alright, Boss. I do have a First Trumpet of the Apocalypse. I can use it to destroy the enemy when I am in danger.

He Who Knows Fate: The First Trumpet of the Apocalypse? That is the trumpet that can sound the end of days, right? Isn’t using that a means of going down with the enemy? At the same time, you will implicate the entire world.

I Have a Strong Presence: I suddenly feel that being in the same world as Gabriel will be even more dangerous. You won’t know when she would blow the First Trumpet of the Apocalypse. Then, you would die together. No, that’s not right. Gabriel is an angel; only you will die.

Blank Never Loses: Just based on Gabriel’s shut-in personality, she might blow the First Trumpet of the Apocalypse if someone accidentally tripped over the Internet cable and yanked it out.

Faillen Angel Gabriel: …

Blank Never Loses: Hey! Hey! Hey! Why are you silent? Shouldn’t you be refuting it? Quickly refute it. Don’t tell me you would really blow the First Trumpet of the Apocalypse because the Internet wire got yanked out?

Faillen Angel Gabriel: …How-how can that be? Boss, you must be joking. How could there be someone who would blow the First Trumpet of the Apocalypse for such a juvenile reason?

He Who Knows Fate: …

Iron Fist Teacher: Perhaps we should change the topic.

Ding! A world consciousness is issuing you a mission. Would you like to accept it?

Reinforcement Gudako (World Mission: Alaya): For various reasons, Sigurd, the dragonslayer, cannot be summoned. Please help Gudako clear the 1st Singularity and prevent the storyline from being ruined.

Intel: Alaya: Gaia, that little bitch, to think she schemed against me! Screw that bitch! Do you hear that? Screw that bitch! Cough! Cough! So…when I said for various reasons, it is actually Gaia’s doing. There is no Sigurd now, so no one can defeat Fafnir. That’s why I need external reinforcement. So far, you have the highest ratings. Although you have completed only two missions, you got five-star ratings on both, so it shall be you. Furthermore, isn’t your Absolute Precognition damaged? If you help me, I will help you repair…it by half. It is not that I don’t want to repair it for you fully; it’s just that the situation does not permit me to. One world having two world consciousnesses is quite problematic. As for the other intel, I feel that you should play the game. You already know what game it is: FGO.

Even if Consciousness Gaia wants me to die, I—the collective will of humans—will not die. The world depends on you to save it.

Danger Level: 1 (You will be entering as a Servant, so even if you die, it will not harm your true body.)

Mission Reward: 1,000 points + half-repaired Absolute Precognition. (Cough! Cough! I know that the points are little, but I can’t do anything about that. Isn’t there still the half-repaired Absolute Precognition?)

[TL Note: Alaya is the collective will of humans, and Gaia is the will of the planet in Fate/Grand Order. Gudako is a fan-given nickname for the female Fate/Grand Order player. The male player would be Gudao. It is the abbreviation of the Japanese pronunciation of Grand Order, and the name stuck. The player’s actual name is Fujimaru Ritsuka. Sigurd and Fafnir are characters in Fate/Grand Order. The 1st Singularity is an event within Fate/Grand Order. Servants are summoned spirits, and the being that appears is more like a clone.

Chen Heng suddenly received a message while killing time in the chat group.

Ding! Will you accept this mission?

“Accept!” Of course, accept! Why would I not accept? A half-repaired Absolute Precognition. That can save me 50,000 points. Furthermore, there isn’t much danger. After all, I would just be going as a Servant. Even if I die, it will not affect my true body.

Chen Heng left the chat group interface to enter the cultural section of the Dimension Administrators Association’s store and searched for FGO.

After Chen Heng searched for FGO, he suddenly remembered Merlin had mentioned appearing in FGO.

He Who Knows Fate: Merlin, are you there?

Chen Heng started a private chat with Merlin.

Magus of Flowers: What’s up?

He Who Knows Fate: You appeared in the FGO game before, right?

Magus of Flowers: That’s right. Why did you suddenly ask me that? Did you receive a mission concerning FGO?

He Who Knows Fate: Correct. Your instincts are sharp. Have you downloaded the FGO game?

Magus of Flowers: Yes! Yes! Yes! Let me tell you this: my luck in this game is ridiculously high, a full five stars. Tell me, which Singularity are you going to?

He Who Knows Fate: My mission concerns the 1st Singularity, so I would like to borrow your account. Does the game have a function to replay past game cutscenes and stories?

Magus of Flowers: Ah! The 1st Singularity. I don’t have a part to play there. I’ll send you the account user and password in a while. After you download the game from the association’s store, you can log in to my account. My account has already cleared the 1st Singularity, so you can watch the story and cutscenes directly.

He Who Knows Fate: Thank you.

Magus of Flowers: You are welcome. Say, can I make a request?

He Who Knows Fate: Go ahead.

Magus of Flowers: Can you livestream the entire process of the mission?

He Who Knows Fate: …Sure.

Magus of Flowers: Ok. There’s nothing else, then. I’ll send the user and password to you.

There had to be something wrong with Merlin.

After Chen Heng downloaded the FGO game, he logged into Merlin’s account, then spent one hour watching the prologue and the storyline of the 1st Singularity.

Chen Heng was going to the 1st Singularity in place of Sigurd to deal with the evil dragon Fafnir.

Honestly speaking, because he only watched the storyline and did not play the game, he did not have a good understanding of Fafnir’s strength. However, since Alaya sought him out for help, there should not be too many problems.

If Fafnir was truly too difficult to deal with, he could just call down justice from above. If one was not enough, then he would pull two down. If two did not work, then three. If worst came to worst, a meteor shower.

Chen Heng glanced at the time in the chat group interface and found it was about nine. He decided to go to the nearby supermarket to purchase some daily necessities. The 1st Singularity took place during France’s Hundred Years’ War; that was the Middle Ages. The standard of living would not be as good as the present. To avoid suffering, he prepared food, ingredients, seasoning, water, and even cutlery. In life, one should never wrong oneself.

[TL Note: Wikipedia entry for France’s Hundred Years’ War: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hundred_Years%27_War.]

Chen Heng used about an hour to buy everything he could think of and got the supermarket’s delivery personnel to send it to his house. The delivery of so many things caused quite a din and even disturbed Sirin.

After sending Sirin to her room, he placed everything in his necklace, a spatial storage passed down in the Chen Clan. It contained all of the Chen Clan’s accumulations over the past thousand years. Only the Chen Clan’s bloodline could open it. Furthermore, ordinary cultivators would not discover this to be a spatial storage. Fortunately, that hidden culprit was considered an ordinary cultivator. That was why Chen Heng could keep this necklace. Its storage space was extraordinarily large, more than sufficient to contain everything.

Now that Chen Heng had put everything away and had sufficient daily necessities, he prepared to depart.

Before Chen Heng left, he even started a livestream. The title of the livestream was Journey to the 1st Singularity. Then, he pinged everyone in the group. Sorry, an administrator could do as he pleased.
