6 New Members [1/2]

After driving Pepper away, Tony weakly slumped to the sofa and closed his eyes. Today is not an easy day for him. Thick dark circles underneath his eyes were hard to hide, and his breath was weak.

He hasn't slept since he got the Chat Group.

Since Kosuke sent him the comics till the Infinity War, ahem, It can also be called the book of prophecy in this world.

Tony's mood could not be described in a word.

Also, why is his world so fucked up?

There are aliens, magicians, superpowers, gods, etc. These things are world-breaking to him.

"*huff* Jarvis, Make sure that no one disturbs my sleep…" Tony slurred in his words and fell asleep.

"As you wish, sir." His butler did what he told and strengthened the defences of the villa.

"…"

Kousuke walked away from the university with a dazed expression. Although his original intention was to sign-in, the previous professor's lecture damaged his brain cells. Still, he did not forget to sign-in.

As a transmigrator with common sense, he will exploit his System, unlike some other protagonists.

That is why he immediately went to various historical places and museums with the purpose of sign-in.

But, after the first round, he was thoroughly disappointed with the world.

'*Sigh* At least I got a chance to sign-in once.' He thought and teleported back to his home.

[Dimensional Chat Group]

[[Tony Stark]: Hey, @Ninja. Want to come to my world?]

Kosuke raised his eyebrows at the notification and replied

[[Kosuke]: Eh, Sure. I mean, why not? I have free time here.]

[[Tony Stark]: Great!]

[[Kosuke]: Don't you feel that the Chat Group is empty? I mean, it was supposed to be a "Group." not a "private-chat."]

[[Tony Stark]: Thinking of this, Why are there only two members in this chat group? Aren't you supposed to be the administrator?]

[[Kosuke]: Wait, let me consult with the Chat Group System.]

Kosuke logged off from the group and opened his second System. See the "?" Button in the top, he inspected it for a moment and clicked on it.

"Ding!"

"Dimensional Chat Group management support System is online."

"Please ask your doubts."

A mechanical voice appeared in his mind. Hearing the voice, Kosuke was startled for a moment but quickly calmed down as this was not the first time he heard a mechanical voice in his mind.

"Hey, management. You know what I wanted to ask, right?" Kosuke did not say the problem. Instead, he tested the ability of the Chat Group.

He wanted to see if the Chat Group can read his mind or not. If it's former, then it can be very problematic.

"Sorry, this Chat Group cannot read minds." Almost as if perceiving what Kosuke was about to ask, the Chat Group wizard replied instantly.

"…"

"*Ahem* Seeing that the owner has misunderstood, I will take the initiative to explain. Although I cannot read minds, I can calculate the possibilities and probability of what you wanted to ask based on your recent chats."

Seeing that there is a misunderstanding, the Chat Group wizard explained in a mechanical tone.

"*Hah* You almost had me there." Kosuke breathed a sigh of relief and asked curiously, "Isn't this what Facebook does?"

"…"

"Please don't compare me with those other third-class social media apps."

"Anyways, Seeing the complaints of the participants, the Chat Group will give compensation."

"Also, the new members will be added randomly, and there is no fixed time. Also, the Group owner can take the initiative to invite members if they agree."

"Anything else?"

Kosuke did not say further and opened the Chat Group's compensation after closing the "?"

[Ding!]

[It is detected that there is an unopened package.]

[Would you like to open it?]

[Yes] / [No]

"Yes, duh."

[Congratulations, Host, for gaining…]

[(A-level) item: Invitation card ×3]

[(A-rank) item: Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan (Only available after unlocking Mangekyo Sharingan) ]

[("?"-level) item: Main God Fragments (1/?) -Fire element-]

"…"

"Hey, System! What is this "?" level item?" Kosuke asked with an uncertain expression.

["…"]

Seeing that System was not replying anything to him, Kosuke glared at it with dissatisfaction and clicked his tongue, "Tch! At least say something."

["…" The System has not enough permission to answer your question, Host.]

"Oh, Just like other systems, don't bullshit me with your permission and shit. I am not a fool. If I found that there is any conspiracy here, I'll- I will… commit suicide. Yeah, then how will you do anything without a Host?" Kosuke nodded his head and warned the System.

["…" Seeing that the Host has embarked on the self-harm route, Rule-34 has been implemented.]

[Every injury will be healed by the System without any cost. (Passive)]

"…"

"Other protagonists get scammed by their Systems. But here, I outsmarted the System who tried to outsmart me." Kosuke shook his head and said with a sigh, "*Sigh* It's boring to have common sense."

["…"]

On the other side of the multiverse, in the Marvel world, near the Stark Mansion.

Tony was chatting with Kosuke suddenly. A message appeared in the warehouse of the Chat Group.

With gleaming curiosity, he opened the red-package and looked at the items present in the red-packet.

[Ding!]

[You have received compensation for the inconvenience caused by the mistake of Chat Group.]

[Would you like to open it?]

[Yes] / [No]

"Oh? Compensation? Interesting." Tony clicked on the [Yes] button and received the compensation.

[Congratulations, Mr Stark, for getting…]

[(B-level) item: Super Soldier Serum ×5]

[(B-level) item: Magic courses for beginner [Marvel] ×2]

[(A-level) item: Artificial Life System (can be integrated into JARVIS.)]

"…"

Another busy day for our Genius, Billionaire, Playboy, Philanthropist.

"Jarvis! Take off your clothes! I've got a gift for you." Tony shouted and began to experiment with his new gifts.

Universe-221B

221B Baker Street, London, United Kingdom.

A tall man with curly hair and pale skin wearing an olive hat with green checkers stood in front of the door. He stood straight without any apparent discomfort with a brown leather suitcase in his right hand and a fire extinguisher on his left.

In front of him, an elderly lady with white and wrinkled skin was standing at the door, waiting for his arrival.

"Good Afternoon, Sherlock. Your new home is waiting for your arrival."

Mrs Hudson said with a caring smile, pointing her finger to the stairs.

"Same to you, Mrs Hudson. Saying this, I will not be polite."

The muscle in Sherlock's lips and cheeks twitched, giving a polite smile (according to him). He unscrupulously walked into the house and turned towards Mrs Hudson, and said.

"Also, a house is not sentient. It does not feel."

Saying that, he walked up the stairs and closed the door.

"What a polite child." Mrs Hudson shook her head and closed the main door.

Thinking of something, she turned her head towards the upstairs and shouted,

"What about your friend, Sherlock? When is he moving in?"

Sherlock's muffled voice came from the stairs,

"John will come tomorrow, Mrs Hudson. You don't have to shout it loud enough for the walls to hear."

Sherlock threw his suitcase on the armchair and sat on the stool. He took the violin case from the stand and took out the wooden violin from it.

*string*

Slowly, at a slow pace, he started to play the violin. Unlike others, he doesn't look at notes and play accordingly. His music depends on his emotions, mood, sentiments, and boredom.

Sometimes, the music is pleasant and graceful. Sometimes, it is turbulent and intense.

But this time, it is apathetic and passive.

*string*

At an average pace, with a fixed speed, the melody looked solemn and indifferent.

His surroundings started to get blurred as more he got immersed in the music. The prismatic waves began to appear in his eyes.

Because he uses too much of his brain, he needs to indulge himself in a peculiar state. In this state, the brain ceases most of its function, and everything is looked at from the perspective of an observer.

Confusing?

To him, it isn't.

*thud*

Abruptly stopping the melody, he threw the violin on the sofa and suddenly took the black coffee, which Mrs Hudson prepared, and added two sugars from the cup.

He calmly glanced at the clock on the wardrobe and closed his eyes.

"You are pretty persistent. As for that, I agree." He said to particularly no one.

With a swipe of his hand, he clicked on the message hovering in front of him for two successive days.

[Thank you, Mr Holmes, for joining the Dimensional Chat Group.]

Universe-SK0918

PK Academy, Hidari Wakibara, Japan.

Just like other slice-of-life worlds, this world is very peaceful. There is no magic, superpower, or other bullshit in this world.

Although there are few supernatural instances, they are nothing compared to other anime worlds.

But, people of this world don't know that a God is living among them.

Maybe the word "esper" suits him better.

Kaido was leaning on the wall near Saiki with his bandaged arm waving in the air. Nendo was looking down with his hands inside the pants, looking for something for what Saiki sincerely hoped for was his hamster.

"U-um, you guys coming to the karaoke?"

Yumehara walked towards the trio and asked with a nervous smile, mostly when looking at Kaido.

"W-well, I invited the entire class…" She tried to explain in a shuttering voice when she saw that everyone was looking at her.

'Invite Kaido already. Leave me out of it. Geez.'

Kusuo said in his mind after hearing her thoughts. Thinking about being the centre of attention, he had a headache.

-'I am going to my grandparent's house.'-

With the previous thought, he decisively rejected the proposal but was interrupted by a voice.

"Why don't you come too, Saiki. Everyone is coming to karaoke." Teruhashi's sweet voice came from behind.

'That's why I am not coming. Everyone is there, why don't you let me live a normal and peaceful life?'

He mentally questioned but did not answer Teruhashi's question.

Teruhashi smiled and continued, "I too will be there. We are waiting for you."

A loud sound of –"OFFU!" resounded through the classroom.

"You should come too, Kusuo. There will be a chocolate fountain on the menu." Mikoto also came over and persuaded with a sly smile.

Getting the signal, Yumehara also added, "I have also bought Cupcake, especially from Kyoto."

'Do you think that karaoke owner will allow you to bring food from home?' He mentally retorted

Teruhashi smiled graciously, like an angel, and said, "There is a newly made café near, and it has very delicious coffee jelly."

'Tsk! Trying to bait me, who do you think I am? A Psychic. Do you think I can't hear your thoughts? Still planning to lure me with some pesky sweets (a mental sneer).'

He looked at them apathetically and said, -' I may have some free time.'

Mentally, he said: 'Congratulations, you won.'

Suddenly a sound prompted in his mind.

"Ding!"

Instantly, he was alerted. He tested, 'Telepathy?'

Seeing that everyone was looking at him weirdly, he stood up from his seat and walked towards the bathroom, ignoring other's gazes.

On the toilet seat, he closed his eyes and concentrated on his mind, searching for the voice.

This time, his expression was a bit serious.

But, it completely changed when he saw the source of the voice. From seriousness to indifference, it took a whole 360-degree turn.

[Would you like to join Dimensional Chat Group, Mr Kusuo?]

[Yes] / [No]

Just like every other "common" highschool student, he chooses:

"No!"

[Umm… *Cough* Sorry what?]

"Nope, absolutely No!" He firmly rejected.

[Eh... Can you tell me why?]

"No."

[Ok. Hmm, how about this? If you join the Chat Group, then I will reward you with a pool of Coffee Jelly.]

"It's a tempting offer but still, No."

[Then what about two…?]

"…No." He hesitated.

[This is final, how about three?]

"Deal!"

["…"]

[Congratulations, Mr Saiki, for joining Dimensional Chat Group.]

....

Members list:

Tony Stark - Checked

Sherlock Holmes - Checked

Saiki Kusuo - Checked

Erina Nakiri - Not right now.

Diana Prince - Not right now.

B_R_S - Guess?

....

[Author's Notes]:

You might be questioning- Why did Saiki accept the chat group so easily? Didn't he want his life to be peaceful?

Answer: Because Saiki was first restrained when he heard the Chat Group's voice. But, his curiosity for unknown could not be hidden. That is why, after arguing a bit, he accepted the invitation.

2nd question: About Sherlock..

Ans: I think that Sherlock is the type of person who would test the limits of the Chat Group. Instead of accepting it directly, he will study it and test its limits.

...

That's the QnA session.
