"Happy birthday all of you!!!" (Ai)
"Mama mama! Feed me cake!" (Ruby)
We hold a small party together in our household as today is the triplet's birthday. We're now 5 years old.
"Ame, you haven't opened your gift yet," Aqua's voice interrupted my thoughts.
"Ah, alright then..."
As I turned my focus back to the party, I couldn't help but notice the abundance of gifts. Mom had generously purchased numerous presents for all of us, and we were also surprised by the thoughtful contributions from President Saito and Miyako-san.
And one of the gifts that I got was a smartphone.
"Although it might be a bit early to tell, Ame-chan appears to have quite the talent for digital stuff. So, I decided to get her a gift related to that," Saito-san seems to be the one who bought this gift.
"eeeh... I hear you weren't supposed to give a five-year-old a phone, President..."
"I'm giving it to her since I thought she has talent."
Well, it was quite a surprise...
.
.
.
The following day, I eagerly opened my new phone and delved into its features, finding it strange that I was the only one among the triplets who received a smartphone. Ruby had received a batch of new clothes, and Aqua got a collection of books.
However, there was still something else I needed to examine—the "other" gifts I received on my birthday. So, I decided to open the system.
[Opening market]
Well well well, just how cliché can this be I wonder...?
[Additional information: The market exclusively caters to group admins, offering valuable insights into multiversal futures and potential threats, except those related to the admin's specific world. In this unique marketplace, you can purchase information by trading accumulated <Fiction Points>.]
[Wellcome to the marketplace, You currently have 500 Fiction Points:]
• [Jujutsu Kaisen (100FP)]

• [Fairy Tail (100FP)]
• [Sword Art Online (100FP)]

• [Bleach (100FP)]
• [Nanatsu no Taizai (100FP)]
• [Naruto (100FP)]
• [Dragon Ball (100FP)]
• [Steins; Gate (100FP)]
Wow, I don't get it.
I don't understand why it's solely selling information. It's quite perplexing.
Anyway, let's shift our focus to the other option—the chat group. This aspect has been bothering me more than the "Market."
*Ding*
[Would you like to start the chat group?]
??? Yes?
In an instant, the system layout underwent a drastic change, and to my astonishment, the option for the chat group vanished without a trace. As I pondered this, a faint "Ding" sound resonated, but to my surprise, it wasn't a system notification—it emanated from the smartphone gifted to me on my birthday...
[Welcome to Dimensional Group Chat]
["Ex-Veteran (Admin)" has joined the server]
It is a f*cking discord...
And... There is no one inside the group. Hold it right there... Shouldn't this be that kind of fanfic? The kind where you get a magical group chat that connects the multiverse and we obtain missions and have adventure to other worlds?
(A/N: Oi!)
So why the heck am I alone? Let me see if I can invite someone... Ah?
[Additional information: Once you acquire the world's information from the market, you'll be granted the fascinating ability to invite random individuals from that world into your own realm.]
Bruh.
Such a setup clearly leans towards a pay-to-win model.
(A/N: Just to remind you she is merely 5 years old, and the chat group will remain active as she bonds with its members until she reaches at least middle school age. Only after that point, will the plot-heavy elements come into play within the chat group.)
Oh well...
[Would you like to buy "Jujutsu Kaisen"]
Yes...
[You have obtained "Jujutsu Kaisen S1&S2.zip"]
[You can invite a person randomly from the Jujutsu Kaisen World.]
Ah... So this is what it was talking about...
[Would you like to begin random invite?]
Yes!
*Ding*
["Star Plasma Vessel" has joined the group chat]
...eh?
Star Plasma Vessel?
*Ding*
Suddenly the newest member of the group chat send a message.
[Star Plasma Vessel: opk,]
Huh? What... Is it some typo?
*Ding*
[Star Plasma Vessel: Hey there! Is this a phone? It looks super-duper different from anything Riko has ever seen!]
Riko?
Huh?
If I'm not wrong... The character known as the "Star Plasma Vessel" appears in Jujutsu Kaisen season 2. Riko Amanai, the star plasma vessel, has a significant impact on the character development of Gojo Satoru and Geto Suguru due to her unfortunate demise.
[Ex-Veteran (Admin): How old are you?]
[Star Plasma Vessel: Riko's 5!!]
...that was unexpected.
.
.
.
I had a longer chat with Riko-chan before eventually concluding our conversation. Explaining everything in one go was challenging, considering her age of 5 and her confusion with the Kanjis I sent. Additionally, her world lacks smartphones and only has flip phones or landlines.
I noticed a couple of interesting features in the group chat, particularly the "Universal Sharing feature." It allows users to share not only files but also skills or items through smartphones.
Unfortunately, luck doesn't seem to be on my side. While I'm open to trading skills with other members, there's a slight dilemma as the only potential partner available is a five-year-old.
But enough of that, there are actually something else I needed to check. It's about the incident from last two years. When Ai's fan suddenly knock on our door with a banquet and a knife.
It has been a rough two years. I worked hard to erase all traces of our household through the internet and we moved our house too after last years' incident. And Ai's performance at the Tokyo Dome was successful.
Currently, we reside in a peaceful district within Tokyo city.
Back then, I successfully instilled a profound sense of guilt and self-loathing into the hooded offender. Thought Guidance was very helpful in my opinion... As a result he committed suicide soon after.
It leaves me wondering, How did that man know our previous address? It's in a less crowded and remote neighborhood, making it unlikely for anyone to easily discover Ai's residence, especially since the president arranges our transportation personally.
We've been very discreet about our location all this time, unless Mom revealed it herself.
In moments like this, I wonder if she felt the need to let us meet our father, especially now that she's successful. It's a possibility that crossed my mind.
But from what I can tell, that man is not related to us. His appearance doesn't match any of our features, and Ai doesn't recognize him.
He must be just a fan, which raises questions about why a fan would harbor so much hatred. The intense pulse of adrenaline and hatred, along with the knife hidden in the bouquet, leave me with a chilling realization: he was a puppet.
Yes, that man was merely a puppet, manipulated by someone who knew of his hateful personality. The real puppeteer must be our father, pulling the strings from behind the scenes.
It's likely that Mom wants the guy to meet us, her triplets, but he leaked the information to the hateful fan. He's trying to kill Ai without getting his hands dirty...
I have to prepare.
Yes, that individual could pose a potential threat in the future. It's essential to be prepared for the worst-case scenario, especially if it means ensuring mom's safety.
I will definitely...
Kill our father.
