Chapter 6: The World of Kobayashi's Dragon Maid?
Chapter 6: The World of Kobayashi's Dragon Maid?
When Shi Chen came to his senses, he found himself in an empty room.
There were several neatly arranged...dining tables around him? The room was closed, and there was a cashier's counter behind him, giving him the feeling that it was a restaurant.
Why did the sound get inside the house? What if it's mistaken for a burglary?
The mechanical voice in my mind rang out at just the right moment.
[Number of fragments found: more than single digits!]
"What did you say?"
Shi Chen thought he had misheard, but the things in his mind ignored him and continued to prompt him.
[Quest: Obtain at least one fragment of divinity.]
[Upon completion of the quest, the world coordinates for "The Burial of Frillien" will be unlocked, and you can travel there at any time.]
[The current world has too many godhood fragments. Locate the main world and acquire ownership of this coffee shop.]
[Mission Perks: Immunity to heat weapons, exceptional reflexes, exceptional dynamic vision, mastery of both heat and cold weapons, coffee-making skills, and a comprehensive knowledge of desserts.]
Shi Chen then realized that he was in a coffee shop, which explained why he was dressed somewhat like the shop manager.
He wore a white long-sleeved shirt on top and black trousers on the bottom, looking somewhat mature, which made me feel quite uncomfortable.
He's almost an eighteen-year-old teenager now, and has absolutely no connection to the store manager.
However, if he is the manager, then this coffee shop should belong to him, and it's unknown whether it has any previous owners.
Just don't steal other people's coffee shops for no reason.
Shi Chen was curious whether the coffee shop had any employees; he didn't want to be running the coffee shop alone.
However, none of these things matter. What matters most to Shichen is what kind of world this is.
He walked to the door, then pushed it open and went out.
Tap tap tap~
Splash splash~
Footsteps, conversations, and noise all rushed into Shi Chen's ears, and he stared blankly at everything around him.
It wasn't anything extraordinary, nor was it anything I'd never seen before. All I could see were tall buildings and a constant stream of pedestrians, dressed in both fashionable and ordinary clothes.
Modern architecture, modern clothing—it's a completely modern world.
I almost thought I had returned to my original world, if it weren't for the fact that the pedestrians had all sorts of different hair colors.
The key is that it doesn't feel out of place.
The thing in his mind didn't give him any clues about which world he had entered, making it difficult for him to determine if he had entered the world of anime again.
Even if he goes back to his own world, it's fine. He hasn't gotten rid of his things at home yet, but he doesn't need them now. He can just smash or burn that laptop without any problem.
You can also experience the thrill of smashing a laptop.
There's no other way; the files on the laptop really aren't suitable to keep. It wouldn't be good if he disappeared for too long and the police were called.
If his home is searched and several terabytes of files on his laptop are discovered, his reputation will be completely ruined.
His sexual fetishes were exposed!
One should leave behind a pure reputation in the world.
Unfortunately, the colorful hair of the passersby made Shichen realize that he could no longer be in his own world.
I don't know if I can go back. It's better not to go back; I'll just live my life without ever knowing if I've been searched.
Shi Chen stopped thinking about this headache and looked up at the crowd on the street to make sure that it was around the same time as his usual time.
The buildings along the street were ordinary, lacking any futuristic technological feel. Everyone's mobile phones were touchscreens or flip phones, and Shichen even saw a familiar brand.
This made him even more convinced that it wasn't some high-tech or backward world.
It felt like we were still in an island nation, and the people around us were speaking the island's language.
The reason why the time is uncertain is because most of the world of anime and manga is "created" by Japan, and it is also in the island language.
Fortunately, he had already permanently obtained the privileges with Frilian, so there was no need to worry about communication issues.
After watching the passersby for a while, I didn't see anyone I recognized, so I decided to learn more about my coffee shop first.
He turned around, looked around his coffee shop, and was quite satisfied with it at first glance.
The coffee shop is a three-story building, but it's not small. It can be used for both business and residential purposes, so there's no need to look for a place to stay.
The timing was easy to meet, since he had only a single room when he lived alone before, and he had already figured out how to arrange these three small houses.
The first floor will definitely be used as a shop, the second floor can be used for living, and the third floor can be used as a warehouse, a study, or a video game room.
This world was designated as the main world by what was in his mind, and from now on it would be his base. He would definitely have to set up his little nest properly.
Life is more than just tasks or becoming a god; enjoying it along the way is also important.
It would be even better if we could bring Frilian and her master along, so they could experience modern life too.
It's unclear why the thing in his head made him open a coffee shop, but it's definitely related to the fragment of divinity. Maybe someone carrying the fragment of divinity will come to his coffee shop for coffee.
That would make it easier to get in touch.
Neither life nor work should be neglected.
Shi Chen nodded in satisfaction with his plan and went back to the shop to prepare for opening, but that mechanical voice suddenly rang in his mind.
[Mission objective spotted—Thor!]
Thor?
Thor!
Shi Chen was a little confused at first, but after muttering a couple of sentences, he immediately remembered who the owner of this name was.
He looked left and right, trying to find the blonde girl dressed as a maid, with horns on her head and a big green tail behind her, who looked like a cosplayer of a dragon girl.
But despite its conspicuous presence, he saw nothing.
"Where is he? Where is Thor?" Shichen asked anxiously.
[Target individual detected has wandered into this world. Please make contact.]
"Was it a mistake?"
Shi Chen inexplicably looked up and saw an incredible sight.
A huge hole suddenly appeared in the sky. It was pitch black inside, and nothing could be seen. The area around the hole was twisted, like a black hole vortex, as if it was about to devour everything around it.
Instead, not far from the cave entrance, a giant green dragon was flying away, but it was not flying steadily, swaying as if it was about to fall at any moment.
With Shichen's keen eyesight, one could clearly see that a sword was stuck in the back of the giant dragon, and there was still obvious bloodstains at the wound.
"It really is Thor..." Shichen murmured to himself, gazing at the giant dragon.
Strangely, the people on the street continued to go about their business as if they were oblivious to the amazing sights in the sky.
As the dragon continued to fly away, the hole in the sky slowly closed, and then the sky returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.
After the cave closed, the dragon seemed to suddenly lose its balance and plummeted down, crashing into a distant hill in the blink of an eye.
Shichen snapped out of his daze and started running towards the hill.
Pedestrians were drawn to him, but despite his fast pace and uniform, they didn't pay him much attention. However, many women were attracted by his subtle and unique aura, though it was a pity they couldn't see his face.
The hour ran through the streets, through the commercial districts, out of the city, and to the intersection of Xiaoshan Road.
Standing at the entrance to the mountain road, he stopped, panting heavily, and looked at the quiet mountain.
The hill was small, very quiet, and completely unharmed, not at all like the place where the dragon had fallen. It was as if what he had just seen was an illusion. If it were before, he might have doubted it, but now, he couldn't.
Shichen took a deep breath and walked into the mountains.
The surrounding trees were neat and orderly, and there was nothing out of the ordinary. When Shi Chen reached the center of the hill, he did not find the place he had been longing for. But just then, as soon as he took a step, the scenery around him changed.
The perfect scene before my eyes vanished completely, revealing the true reality.
The surrounding trees were dilapidated, with thick trees leaning and crooked, a scene of devastation. The ground in front was gradually sinking, cracking and converging at the center.
It was a huge pit, and in the middle of the pit, a ferocious and terrifying green dragon lay there.
"Humans? It doesn't seem so..." The dragon suddenly opened its eyes, its golden vertical pupils staring directly at the time, and a terrifying pressure swept over.
"How did you get into this place? If you don't want to become my mouth, leave at once!"
The terrifying pressure had absolutely no effect on the timing.
He was not at all surprised when the dragon spoke human language. Unable to suppress his joy, he slowly approached the dragon.
"Don't come near me!"
The dragon was imposing and awe-inspiring, but it was still useless when it came to time. He was not afraid of it, and slowly walked to the dragon's huge head, then reached out and touched its massive jaws.
It is very hard, like marble, but it is rough and has no fleshy feel at all, but Shichen is quite fond of it.
Touching the terrifying dragon's hard jaw, he couldn't help but slowly laugh, laughing like a fool.
The dragon stared blankly at him, its massive jaws slightly agape, revealing its ferocious fangs, and asked in a daze, "What are you doing?"
