Do You Want to Go Fishing with Klee? & Lisa's Experiment

I didn't anticipate that the second manga would be Digimon. During Takarou's youth, he often<msreadoutspan class="msreadout-line-highlight msreadout-inactive-highlight"> watched Digimon. During that time, he often daydreamed about having his own Digimon. <msreadoutspan class="msreadout-word-highlight">However</msreadoutspan>, </msreadoutspan>after arriving in this world, he unexpectedly acquired a Digimon manga.

Nonetheless, it remains unclear who can obtain a Digimon from this manga. Takarou's heart is filled with anticipation. As the sky outside darkens, indicating the absence of any other customers, Takarou closes the shop and heads to good hunter. Meanwhile, Jean, accompanied by Klee, returns to the Knights of Favonius.

"Lisa... Sister Lisa," Klee eagerly greets Lisa as soon as she sees her, knowing that Lisa is also a member of the Knights of Favonius.

"Klee, did you go fishing with Jean again today?" Lisa smiles upon seeing Jean and Klee together.

"No, Klee did not go fishing today," Klee clarifies, confirming that she indeed did not engage in fishing activities.

"Klee, go and play. Lisa and I have something to discuss," Jean instructs, allowing Klee to have her own fun.

"Okay, Klee will go and play," Klee promptly runs off.

"Lisa, I discovered something interesting today," Jean informs Lisa.

"Oh, what has caught Jean's interest?" Lisa crosses her arms and looks at Jean.

"It's this," Jean presents the item acquired from the manga shop to Lisa.

"Isn't this just a pen?" Lisa glances at it a few times, losing interest.

"Lisa, this is not an ordinary pen. Let me demonstrate it to you," Jean explains, determined to pique Lisa's curiosity.

Afterwards, Jean draws a circle in the air, mimicking what she did at the manga shop. She then says, "Go to the Mondstadt Library of the Knights of Favonius."

"Come, Lisa, let me take you inside," Jean insists, pulling Lisa along and entering the library.

Ah...

Lisa is left speechless as she witnesses herself and Jean actually appearing inside the library of the Knights of Favonius. Her face fills with astonishment.

'Jean, this...'

"How is it? Isn't it amazing?" Jean asks, seeking validation.

"This pen is called the Space Leap Pen. By drawing a circle, stating the desired destination, and stepping into the circle, one can arrive at that specific location. Isn't it incredible?" Jean explains excitedly.

"This... It's truly astounding. How did you obtain such a remarkable item?" Lisa inquires, now comprehending the uniqueness of the pen.

After Jean provides an explanation, Lisa grasps the situation. It becomes clear to her that not only Jean but also Klee received rewards from a manga shop named "New Century." The concept of reading manga to obtain rewards sparks Lisa's interest, wondering if she, too, can acquire items related to her research by visiting the shop. At that moment, Lisa becomes curious about this shop.

"Jean, you must keep this item secure. If it falls into the wrong hands, it could lead to trouble," Lisa warns, emphasizing the importance of safeguarding the pen.

Considering the potential implications, Lisa gazes at Jean with a serious expression, providing a reminder that if individuals with malicious intentions were to obtain the pen, they could easily infiltrate the Knights of Favonius by utilizing the Space Leap Pen.

"Don't worry, Lisa. I will ensure its safety," Jean assures, understanding the gravity of the situation.

"What do you think? Isn't it remarkable? Would you like to give it a try?" Jean offers, eager to share the experience.

"Sure, then I'll give it a try," Lisa agrees, intrigued by the pen's capabilities.

Lisa attempts to activate the pen but realizes that no matter how she tries, she cannot activate its powers.

"It appears that this pen is exclusively meant for you as a reward. Only you can utilize it. In that case, I can rest assured," Lisa concludes, relieved by the pen's restricted usage.

"Even if others were to acquire it, they would be unable to use it," Jean adds, confirming their earlier concerns to be unnecessary.

Jean also comprehends this, finding it truly remarkable.

"Lisa, now that it's getting late, let's go together tomorrow and visit the shop after I finish my work," Jean suggests their plan.

"Sure, tell me more about that shop," Lisa expresses her curiosity, intrigued by the potential rewards it offers.

After enjoying a meal at good hunter, Takarou returns to his shop. In this world, there are no computers or phones to pass the time, so he can only resort to sleeping. However, this is not a concern, as he no longer has to endure the 996 work schedule that plagued his previous life. The following day, the shop opens as usual.

"Knock, knock, Takarou, Klee has come to play," Klee announces as she arrives at the shop shortly after it opens.

Takarou's face lights up with a gentle smile as he observes the adorable little girl. In his previous life, he would take Klee fishing in various locations such as Mondstadt, Liyue, and Inazuma, even spending several months in the Artifact Domains, imprisoned by the authorities, all in pursuit of obtaining five high-quality artifacts for Klee. Although he is unable to engage in those activities now, he cherishes the opportunity to see Klee every day in this world.

"Takarou, do you have to remain in the shop every day? Can't you go out and have some fun?" Klee inquires, concerned about Takarou's confinement.

"Klee, this shop is my business. During the day, I must tend to it. I can only go out when the shop is closed," Takarou explains, conveying his responsibilities.

"I see. How about this, Klee? Instead of reading a manga, may I tell you a story?" Takarou suggests, offering an alternative form of entertainment.

"A story? Klee absolutely loves listening to stories. Klee wants to hear one!" Klee eagerly responds, showing her enthusiasm.

Klee's attention instantly shifts, forgetting about fishing and becoming engrossed in the idea of storytelling. Takarou pulls a chair and invites Klee to sit down. Thus, an adult and a child begin their storytelling session in the shop.

Naturally, it is Takarou who narrates the stories to Klee. However, he only shares fairy tales, refraining from spoiling the stories present in the manga books within the shop. Likewise, he refrains from divulging details about the manga stories. When Klee eventually has enough money to read them, it will be akin to experiencing spoilers. During lunchtime, Jean and Lisa visit the shop.

Jean enters while holding food in her hands.

"Jean, Lisa," Takarou warmly greets them as he notices their arrival.

Upon seeing Jean and Lisa together, Klee happily acknowledges their presence.

"Klee, so you're here. I thought you went fishing again," Jean expresses her relief, aware of the risks associated with Klee's fishing adventures.

Jean's concern stems from Klee's young age, as she would find it challenging to explain any injuries to Alice.

"Hello, endearing individual," Lisa greeted Takarou as soon as she caught sight of him.

Upon hearing Lisa's affectionate moniker, Takarou couldn't help but smile.

"Welcome to the New Century Manga Shop, esteemed Rose Witch Lisa," he replied.

"Oh, so you are familiar with my identity, Mr. Owner?" Lisa inquired, curious about the extent of her recognition.

"Rose Witch Lisa, who isn't acquainted with your persona?" Takarou chuckled.

"Lunchtime must be approaching. I presume you haven't had a chance to eat yet?" Lisa inquired.

"We have just arrived from the good hunter and brought some nourishment for you," Jean replied, proffering the food she had brought.

"Thank you," Takarou expressed his gratitude.

"Klee, let us partake in the meal together," Jean suggested, considering that Klee had not eaten either.

With bowls and chopsticks readily available in the shop, Takarou divided the food brought by Jean into two portions.

"Thank you, Brother Takarou" Klee gratefully acknowledged.

"Mr. Owner, yesterday I only noticed a single manga in the shop. Why is there an additional one today?" Jean inquired, intrigued by the newly added selection.

"My manga emporium is not limited to merely one manga. There will be other titles forthcoming," Takarou explained.

"I see. Mr. Owner, could you enlighten us further about this manga entitled 'Digimon'?" Jean requested.

"You may perceive it as a narrative featuring creatures known as Digimon. As for the rewards one can acquire from it, that is subject to the whims of fate," Takarou clarified.

With a new manga available in the shop, Jean naturally found the concept of Digimon to be captivating. However, with her dear friend Lisa present, she wanted to consider Lisa's preferences.

"Lisa, which one would you prefer to peruse?" Jean inquired.

"Yesterday, both Jean and Klee obtained rewards from the 'Doraemon' manga, so let us commence with that for now," Lisa suggested.

"In that case, I shall delve into 'Digimon'," Jean decided.

They each placed 10,000 Mora on the counter where Takarou stood.

With their chosen manga in hand, they commenced their reading. Jean immersed herself in the world of Digimon, while Lisa carefully savored the contents of Doraemon.

The manga commenced with an extraordinary climate upheaval on Earth...

Seven classmates, namely Taichi Yagami, Yamato Ishida, Sora Takenouchi, Koushiro Izumi, Jou Kido, Mimi Tachikawa, and Takeru Takaishi, who attended the same elementary school, found themselves separated from others during an unexpected blizzard. They sought refuge in a temple situated on a mountainside.

After the heavy snowfall ceased, they chanced upon peculiar devices resembling pagers descending from the sky. Suddenly, all of them were transported to an unfamiliar realm, accompanied by creatures asserting themselves as Digimon.

From these Digimon, they discovered that they had arrived on File Island.

Abruptly, they were assailed by a creature named Kuwagamon, compelling them to the precipice of a cliff. Despite the overwhelming odds, the seven Digimon fought valiantly to protect their partners.

Deeply moved, just as they appeared to be overpowered by Kuwagamon, a mysterious device emitted a radiant light, causing the seven Digimon to undergo a remarkable evolution.

Their powers significantly augmented, they collaborated and vanquished Kuwagamon. While everyone jubilated over their triumph, Kuwagamon resurfaced, hurling them all down the cliff...

As Jean perused the manga, she found the notion of these characters utilizing a pager-like device to summon creatures to be intriguing.

Meanwhile, Lisa was engrossed in Doraemon, particularly the time-traveling robotic cat from the future.

She couldn't help but ponder upon the experience of having her own robotic cat and exploring its inner workings.

Unbeknownst to them, time swiftly passed, and they concluded their reading of their respective manga.

Upon completion, they closed the books and returned them to the shelf before seeking out Takarou.

"Mr. Owner, could you enlighten us regarding our rewards?" Jean inquired.

"Just a moment," Takarou replied.

[After perusing the 'Digimon' manga, Jean obtained the reward 'Flower Fairy'.]

In a burst of white light, a pink creature with four leaf-shaped wings on its back, bearing resemblance to a fairy, materialized before Jean.

The newly arrived Flower Fairy swiftly flew towards Jean.

As Jean observed the elf-like creature, she couldn't resist asking Takarou, "Mr. Owner, what is this?"

"This is a Flower Fairy. It commences as a Floatmon, but since you obtained it as a reward, it has already undergone four evolutions, hence the name Flower Fairy," Takarou elucidated.

"It possesses one more ultimate evolution called Roselia Beast."

"Flower Fairy: a fairy-type Digimon born from the exquisite blooming petals. It appears to be akin to a childlike human but harbors the latent power of a fully evolved Digimon. Renowned for its capricious and whimsical nature, it often forms connections with human girls possessing kindred spirits. It can be rather emotional and vulnerable, easily brought to tears, necessitating substantial effort to tame it. Nonetheless, it possesses a gentle disposition and willingly extends aid to the weak. It soars through the skies employing the four leaf-shaped wings on its back, creating a refreshing breeze in its wake," Takarou described.

"Furthermore, there is no need for a pager to summon the reward."

"It can exist permanently in this world. If you desire to enhance its prowess, you may nourish it with Dendro elements such as Dendro Slimes, among other methods," Takarou added.

"There is another means, through battles. Allow it to accrue experience, and once it reaches a certain level, it shall undergo ultimate evolution."

After absorbing Takarou's explanations, Jean comprehended the process. She extended her hand towards the Flower Fairy.

The Flower Fairy glided gracefully into Jean's outstretched palm.

"Chirp!"

The Flower Fairy affectionately rubbed against Jean, acknowledging her as its owner.

"How adorable!" Jean exclaimed, overwhelmed by the endearing creature nestled in her palm.

Klee, who stood nearby, couldn't help but be intrigued upon catching sight of the elf-like creature on Jean's hand.

"What a darling little creature! May I have a closer look?" Klee exclaimed.

Lisa, positioned beside them, also displayed evident curiosity.

However, as Klee approached, the Flower Fairy sensed a hint of danger and swiftly took refuge behind Jean.

"Very well, Lisa, let us refrain from alarming the Flower Fairy," Jean advised, comprehending the need to safeguard the delightful creature.

Naturally, Jean, an eighteen-year-old teenage girl, couldn't resist the allure of such an adorable being.

After all, who can resist the appeal of beauty?

"Enough Lisa. Mr. Owner, would you be so kind as to apprise me of my reward?" Jean inquired.

[After perusing Doraemon, Lisa obtained a magical photo album.]

In a burst of white light, a magical photo album materialized in Lisa's hand.

"This is a magical photo album. Merely specify the time and person, and you can witness past photographs within this enchanting album," Takarou explained.

"Oh, how astonishing!" Lisa exclaimed, captivated by the description provided by Takarou.

"Mr. Owner, if I understood correctly, I can specify a time and person, and regardless of the duration that has passed, I can still view the photographs?" Lisa sought further confirmation.

"That is correct," Takarou nodded, confirming the album's mystical properties.

"In that case, I must conduct a proper experiment," Lisa declared, eager to explore.

She commenced by specifying a time and task.

Then, before their eyes, photographs from Jean's childhood appeared within the album.

In one photograph, Jean was crouched on the ground with a small turtle resting in a water basin.

"Lisa!" Jean blushed upon witnessing the scene, capturing her moments of caring for a pet turtle during her childhood. Lisa had inadvertently brought it to light.

This caused Jean's cheeks to acquire a rosy hue, as there were others present.

"Oh, Jean, please do not be angered. I was merely conducting a test to verify the veracity of Mr. Owner's claims," Lisa swiftly explained, with no intention of upsetting Jean with her experiment.

"Nevertheless, it is not appropriate to employ me as a subject for your experiments," Jean responded, a trace of playfulness evident in her voice.
