The night looked as if the sky had swallowed up the universe in a pitch-black canopy, with the stars and the moon obscured by thick dark clouds, but strangely the air did not become damp and showed no signs of rain.

After finishing dinner, Gu Wu talked to the protagonists who came here at the dinner table, and found that they did have enough value and a reason to cooperate with them.

However, after they finished dinner, they had to go back immediately because of their respective affairs, so Gu Wu had no intention of forcibly leaving them to discuss in detail.

The lights illuminated the scene, and in the center of the familiar passage was the area waiting for the elevator, and Gu Wu, who was standing there at the moment, looked at the two people beside him.

The two of them are Silla Kishitani and Selti, as the main characters in "Persona of the Headless Horseman", Silla has medical skills and Selti has the ability to have a good life in Ikebukuro.

Of course, compared to any medical skills and abilities, for them at the moment, being able to be with each other is the most important thing, right?

"As I said before, Miss Selty, my commission will be paid handsomely, usually within a week, and you can contact me at any time if you wish."

"Wait! Wait! My Celti ...... It hurts! Little brother Gu Wu! Don't try to fool Serti! Because I'm always overseeing the work between you! So as soon as a problem is found, it will be interrupted immediately! ”

"There's nothing wrong with that, after all, the deal itself is a matter of mutual agreement; But I must also emphasize that if Miss Selty is willing to accept and Mr. Silla is not, please respect the choice of the person concerned. ”

"Hmph, you don't have to worry about this, Celti will discuss it with me anyway!"

Silla looked confident, and it seemed that he believed in his bond with Selti.

[Don't care what this idiot says, I usually accept jobs that I am sure of, and with the good pay you offered, I think we will reach a consensus.] 】

The 'we' in Selti's mouth does not refer to her and Gu Wu, but to her and Silla, which means that Selti originally had plans to discuss with Silla.

The two who have a good relationship have been moving forward, and Gu Wu is a little envious of this.

However, for Gu Wu at the moment, it is more correct to spend more effort on completing the task than to envy a stupid couple like them.

[I want to ask one more question before I go back, but of course it's okay if you don't want to answer.] 】

"What kind of problem is it? If I can answer......"

【The power you have used...... Do you share similar qualities to me? 】

Born from legends, or attached to legends, this is the 'trait' of the 'Headless Horseman' Celti Strulson, I believe that Gu Wu also has many non-human traits in her eyes.

Whether it is in the eyes of ordinary people or in the eyes of the legend of Selti, Gu Wu's current display is indeed very abnormal.

It is impossible for an ordinary person to own a world, and it is impossible to casually teleport others to a certain place.

And the source of Gu Wu's strength is the system, but who would really believe in the existence of the system?

Altaïr agreed because he had experienced it, but Gu Wu told people outside of Altaïr in the same way that he would be treated as a strange guy.

"There is a little similarity, but there is still a fundamental difference, and it can only be said that the impression is just partially overlapped."

[I see, there are quite a lot of mysteries on you. 】

Silla on one side didn't seem to understand or understand the conversation between the two people, and he leaned over to Selti to ask

"Don't leave me out! What did you say to each other?! ”

Are you stupid? There's nothing you need to ask. 】

"But, damn it...... I'll try! ”

I don't know what direction Silla will work in, but Serti expresses her helplessness with the black smoke that gushes out.

After they left, they changed back into their clothes, and the Allen trio came out of the break room.

"Mr. Gu Wu, we're leaving too."

Eren was holding a large box, as were Mikasa and Amin.

The boxes were full of supplies, some compressed food in addition to food, and water was not needed because they were more abundant.

Putting the box down, Alan expressed his gratitude to Gu Wu.

"Thanks to Captain Gu Wu this time, otherwise the food problem would have been even worse."

Due to the role of Gu Wu as the captain in the giant world, they changed back to the title of 'Captain Gu Wu' after using 'Mr. Gu Wu' a few times.

"Don't worry, if you can help."

Gu Wu is not a great good person, but this kind of effort can still be done easily.

"By the way, you haven't forgotten the previous conversation, have you? I'll contact you again when you've had a stressful time, and maybe with your strength. ”

"I understand."

Allen, whose expression became serious, was very clear about the truth of 'equivalent exchange', and he didn't think about getting materials from Gu Wu in vain.

"In such a world, Captain Gu Wu will still encounter enemies?"

The person who asked Gu Wu like this was Ah Ming, he wiped off the little sweat that had flowed from carrying things, and looked at Gu Wu with a very curious gaze.

Such a world?

Well~ This world is indeed safe, at least there are not many contradictions between the people, even if there is no way to have too much impact on Gu Wu.

However, his purpose is naturally not to fight in this world, after all, this world is already his property.

"The enemy can appear at any time, not necessarily here."

"It's a bit confusing."

"Ah Ming-kun, it's okay not to think about those questions now."

At this time, the elevator came, and Alan and Armin picked up the box again and walked to the elevator, but Mikasa stopped on the way.

She walked up to Gu Wu and said softly

"I'll keep an eye on Allen, Captain Gu Wu......"

Mikasa is a very smart person, she is careful and vigilant, and she will not be fooled casually, except when Eren is in danger......

"As a businessman, I'm fair."

"I hope so."

However, it is a pity that the fairness of businessmen generally exists only for themselves.

Gu Wu said goodbye to the three with a smile, then turned around and walked towards the lounge.

There, there were four young girls who had finished their meal.

On the sofa, Shimazaki had fallen asleep in an instant, and Altair, who was sitting next to her, used a knee pillow to let her sleep peacefully.

On the other sofa, Xia Zhiqiu and Ying Lili saw Gu Wu coming back, and they beckoned.

"How?"

"Regarding the question that Mr. Gu Wu mentioned before."

"Refers to...... Publishing? ”

"That's right."

Kasumigaoka responded in an affirmative tone.

"If it is a work that you agree with, you can get support, such a result is naturally good, but if the created work is only recognized by Mr. Gu Wu, it is not a real success......

At this moment, Kasumigaoka is different from her past self, in the past, she may have written for herself, for someone, but now she writes to become better.

Of course, she may still have the same ideas as before, but it's certain that she has changed.

"It's also good to be liked by Mr. Gu Wu! But that's just the first step! ”

Eiri also added to Kasumigaoka's statement, and it seems that both of them have already made a decision.

Because they're the protagonists?

No, because that's what they are.

Gu Wu, who expressed his admiration, raised the corners of his mouth, and he rubbed their heads.

"Well done."

"Don't treat me like a child, it's enough to have Sawamura-san alone in that role."

Before Kasumigaoka's words fell, he was scolded back by Ying Lili.

"I'm not a kid!"

Listening to the conversation of the three of them, Altaïr warned with coughing and reproachful eyes, reminding Gu Wu and the three of them to be quiet.

"It's getting late."

Xia Zhiqiu looked at the starless night outside, and Gu Wu pointed down.

"I've got a spare room here."

"It just so happens that tomorrow will be a holiday~"

Kasumigaoka doesn't seem to be planning to leave, and Eiri also said she wants to stay.

So the two of them went to the guest room with a separate bathroom, led by Richardson, and planned to come back to chat after taking a shower.

"You ...... guy"

"Miss Altair, I'm a very ordinary person."

Gu Wu smiled again, emphasizing his identity.

————

Kasumigaoka and Eiri were taking a bath, and Altaïr got up and found a blanket for Shimazaki before coming to the balcony with Gu Wu.

There were neither stars nor moons, only the lights of the city illuminating a world that should have found darkness to engulf it.

A slightly cool breeze swept across the balcony, and Altair, who was looking at the lighthouse in the distance, accosted Gu Wu.

"What are you going to do next?" Since you need more strength, it means you're going to do something hard, isn't it? ”

"It's not very difficult to say it's difficult, but it's not easy to say it's simple."

"Inkblot guys."

"I just gave a very modest answer, after all, it seems more stupid to reply to you with some big truth or very powerful lines, right?"

In response to Gu Wu's remarks, Altaïr withdrew her gaze from the distant lighthouse, and she turned to look at Shimazaki who had fallen asleep on the sofa.

"From the beginning of having self-awareness, from the beginning of having this body, from the beginning of this ability, I have not changed my purpose, even if I become much stronger than before, I plan to ......"

"Don't stress it to me, because I know what you're thinking."

It's clear.

It was precisely because he knew very well that Gu Wu hoped that Altaïr could do his best to help, after all, only if they survived, they would have more opportunities.

The miracle brought by the system was built on Gu Wu, and if Gu Wu disappeared, the result would be self-evident.

"The system you mentioned earlier, what kind of existence does that have?"

"It's a lot of trouble to explain this system."

Even if Altaïr could accept the setting, she wouldn't necessarily understand.

However, Gu Wu did not intend to continue to conceal it.

"You can think of it as a game system, a system for fighting monsters and upgrading."

"Before that in my world...... No, it's in the world of an instant, but also to complete the task so that you can level up? ”

"That's right."

"It's similar to the game system, in other words, it can also be seen as your special ability."

Altaïr was right.

The 'system' in Gu Wu's body is the same as Altaïr's skill 'Senluo', it is an ability that exists in the body, and it is all given by others.

"In that case, as long as you continue to complete the mission, you will be able to become stronger and stronger?"

"That's it, that's right."

"I see, then let me assist you."

Unlike the previous promises.

In the past, Altai only offered to help because of Shimazaki Saka's relationship, but now she is not only for Shimazaki Saka, but also for some reasons between herself and Gu Wu.

At the moment, two people are in the same boat, and mutual benefit is a matter of course.

"I'll take the moment back."

"Yes."

The conversation between the two ended, and Richardson, the butler, entered the room at this time.

He brushed shoulders with Altair and then reported to Gu Wu.

"Mr. Gu Wu, there is another guest."

"New guest, it's almost ten o'clock now."

followed Richardson to the elevator, and when the elevator was prompted to reach the floor, Gu Wu was the first to hear the sound.

"Uh-oh-oh!!"

"It's too noisy, Yu!"

The elevator opened, and two young girls appeared in view.

Oops, oops, it's really coming.

"It's ...... A miracle?! Thousand! ”

"Not a miracle...... It's a dream. ”

"Ahaha! I saw Gu Wu's soul! ”

The maidens from the end world have stepped into a new world, and this is indeed no different from a miracle for them.

Sure enough, the system is an all-powerful existence, and not only that, but it is also an existence that constantly creates miracles.

"I'm not a soul because ......"

Gu Wu slapped Yuli's head with his hand, but the girl covered her head and hit her back, making close contact with the wall next to the elevator.

"It hurts! Woo! Thousand! The reality here is yes! ”

It's reality, but it's beyond reality on some level.

Seeing what the two girls were wearing, Gu Wu asked the maid to come over this time and took them to change into other clothes.

"Is it really okay?"

Chinohe looked very uneasy, but Yuri, who had become very aggressive, was unimpressed and began to look around the situation, and even chatted with the maid.

The number of people has increased again.

"Mr. Gu Wu, will those two little guests also live here?"

"I don't know, but I think I'll take a break tonight, so I'm sorry for you."

"Here's what I'm supposed to do."

Richardson finished speaking and set off to action.

Gu Wu stretched his waist and heard the voices of Xia Zhiqiu not far away.

Keep it up!

Gu Wu has already completed the first and second steps! So start with the third step and head straight to your final destination!
