The Mob and the Phone

"It truly is a great day..."

Laying down on the vast meadows of Narukami Island at the foot of Mt. Yougou where the Grand Narukami Shrine is located, a lone figure can be seen.

It was a pleasant day.

The sun was high up in the sky coupled with some clouds, giving out some mild temperatures.

A soft breeze is flying through the wide open space as it carried the fresh life of the forest.

The rustling of leaves can be heard from the distance.

With all of these combined, it had undoubtedly become a pleasant day to laze around.

...Of course, that is if not for the fact that the person lazing around is wearing a Doushin Uniform of the Tenryou Commission.

"Hey, Asakura, stop lazing around." Suddenly, another person wearing a Tenryou Commission Doushin uniform appeared above his head and spoke.

"Let me rest for a bit longer..." The man named Asakura leisurely waved his hand. "The breeze today is fresh... Truly, Spring has got to be my favorite season."

"..." The Doushin heard his companion's excuse and sighed. "Whatever. We'll be heading first."

"Huh? You're leaving without me?" Asakura asked with a somewhat saddened look.

The Doushin waved his hand as he walked away. "You better not be late for inspection. Or else the people of the Kanjou Commission will give you a harsh punishment."

"Hah..." Asakura sighed when he heard this. "Fine, I'll catch up later. Just let me enjoy this moment."

"Alright then, see ya." The Doushin said before finally leaving.

Seeing him leave, Arasuka sighed. 'Seriously...'

'It's been four months since I transmigrated to this body, and each passing day is a pain in the neck.' He thought as he crossed his arms behind his head to support it.

'The situation in Inazuma is not doing well and corruption is rampant...' He groaned. 'Furthermore, the traveler's arrival is still far away.'

"Hah... I want to drink some boba tea..." He muttered as he remembered the drink he always bought in Inazuma city after transmigrating.

His brown eyes then reflected the sky and the drifting clouds with them.

Brr—

Suddenly, something vibrated.

"Huh?"

Asakura sensed it very well as it came from his body. He then raised his body and sat down.

He began to inspect his clothing. 'What was that just now...?'

After searching for a whole, he finally found it. Reaching into his pocket, he found...

"A phone?" Asakura said as he instantly recognized what it was.

He then inspected it and even turned it on by pressing the power button at the side.

"It really is a smartphone..." He said as he looked around the home screen.

'Finally.' He thought before sighing in relief. 'Four months... I've endured following orders and forcefully taking away visions from others and even killed some people... All in the span of four months.'

'Finally... Something that can help me in this world...'

For four months, he had to follow orders. Confiscate the vision of the people and kill some who try to resist.

What can he even do? He was just a normal human. He didn't have any vision or a way to resist the Tenryou Commission's orders. If he tries, he would just get himself killed.

And so, like a machine, he just kept following orders.

But all of that is about to change now with this miracle that appeared in his hands.

He then looked at his phone again and searched for something. He then noticed something strange.

There were no apps. Well, except for one that was conspicuously standing out.

It was an application that had a white background and had a four-pointed star that is colored gold as its cover.

Asakura got curious and decided to open it.

The app opened and something appeared on the phone.

'Is this... A status window?' He thought.

On the phone was a game-like status window displaying his overall abilities.

It was a rather simple status window.

'I see...' He hummed. 'Just like an RPG game, this status window also displays my overall capabilities.'

This was a world where ancient evil can be sealed and escape a thousand years later. Who knows what will happen to him?

In Mondstadt, there is a problem of Stormterror. In Liyue, there is a problem with the Fatui, here in Inazuma, there is a problem with the Shogun.

And on Sumeru... Well, they haven't done anything... Yet.

Having something to accurately measure his strength was more or less an upgrade.

'Now then... What can this phone do?' He thought as he looked around.

Suddenly, a notification that is dark-themed appeared on the phone.

[Activation successful.]

[Would you like to start?]

[Y/N]

"Start?" He muttered in confusion. 'Start what, exactly?'

The phone was asking him something very vague, and he was quite skeptical about answering it.

After a few moments of contemplation, he shook his head and just did it.

He moved his finger and clicked the [Y] button. 'This better not be a trap...'

After clicking the confirmation button, the previous system notification disappeared and a new one popped up.

[Confirmed.]

[Installing...]

[Success.]

[Giving out invitations...]

[Success.]

Asakura looked at the barrage of notifications carefully and read each one of them. 'Installations?'

Thinking of this, he exited the status app and looked at his home screen. There, he saw a new application.

It was an app that had a dark background and a rather familiar crown as a symbol. 'Is that... The crown of insight?'

It looked like a Crown of Insight from the game, but it has no details and is only highlighted with white.

Asakura clicked on it and he was taken to the app's main interface.

'This...' He thought as he looked around the app. 'Isn't this D*scord...?'

Although it looked exactly like the messaging app he used in the past, it looked a little different and had fewer buttons... and some new buttons.

He then saw one active server that had just been created that had a cover of two swords intertwining each other, forming some sort of coalition symbol.

Asakura clicked it and saw that it already had established channels. He scrolled down and clicked on the 'General' channel.

'There's no way this is D*scord and I'm the moderator...' He thought with a wry smile. 'If it is, then why have I not turned obese and call girls kitten yet?'

He then shook his head. 'No, focus. What can this phone do, exactly?'

He then crossed his arms. 'Are there even phones here? Oh, wait no... Hmm... How am I supposed to invite people then?'

Just then, four messages appeared in the General Channel that caught Asakura's attention.

[Welcome to the Server, @Blonde Traveler]

[Welcome to the Server, @Vago Mundo]

[Welcome to the Server, @Frostflake Heron]

[Welcome to the Server, @Sprout of Rebirth]

[Welcome to the Server, @Hidden Mob]

Reading their names, Asakura's eyes widened. 'Those names... No way...'

Right now, no one was talking. But it was fairly obvious that everyone that was just invited are looking.

Everyone who had just received a phone all looked at it with confusion.

Some asked what it was while some were curious and opened it.

Everyone has undoubtedly opened the messaging app and is currently looking at the empty conversation room.

Meanwhile, Asakura received another gift from the system.

Other than the messaging app, he had also received a starter pack.

[The system took a long time to be installed and it sincerely apologizes.]

[A gift has been given as an apology.]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the following.]

[Template Card (Giyu Tomioka)]

[Senzu Bean]×3

[Elemental Sight]

'This... This is a bit too much, ain't it?'
