Chapter 2: The People in the Group Speak So Well; They Are All Talented.

[Bai Mo: "Thank you all for the warm welcome. My name is Bai Mo. I apologize for not checking the group messages yesterday due to some unexpected circumstances. Please take care of me from now on!"]

Lying on her bed, Bai Mo casually replied to the messages. Due to the overwhelming amount of information she received yesterday, she had momentarily forgotten about joining the chat group.

Moreover, since the system randomly selects the world for transmigration without informing her in advance, Bai Mo had been busy gathering information about this new world since her arrival.

Using the Power of Reason from the Herrscher, Bai Mo managed to manifest some local currency to find lodging in a seedy hotel.

The Power of Reason proved incredibly useful. Whatever she imagined would materialize without needing any calculations, only consuming an equivalent amount of Honkai energy.

At her current level, Bai Mo could only manifest items like cash, handguns, and swords. Creating more complex items like rifles was beyond her capability. Having just acquired the power, Bai Mo didn't expect to master everything instantly (Bai Mo isn't affected by the Honkai Will's corruption).

After some investigation, Bai Mo had determined that this world was from "Honkai Impact 3rd," based on the names of cities like Nagazora City and Arc City, and the fact that she was currently in New Zealand.

No other world's technology could have advanced to this level.

[ApplePieLover: "Ah! The newbie has spoken! Everyone, come and see! @all members."]

[ApplePieLover: "No worries. Everyone here is very friendly. Please take care of us too."]

[CakeLover: "It's fine. Everyone gets busy sometimes. Look at me; I'm always busy repairing Chaldea's power supply."]

[RichestShrineMaiden: "More like you're always busy eating your strawberry cake. I don't believe a slacker like you would ever do actual work."]

[Bai Mo: "I was surprised to suddenly have something like this in my mind. What do you all think about this chat group?"]

Seeing her messages being replied to, Bai Mo immediately checked the responses.

Based on her knowledge, ApplePieLover should be Exusiai from "Arknights," and RichestShrineMaiden was definitely Reimu, the infamous Shrine Maiden of Gensokyo. As for CakeLover, it must be Romani Archaman.

Then there was Kevin.Kaslana, the only other person besides himself using his real name.

Kevin Kaslana—Bai Mo was genuinely worried that if Kevin ancestor, found out she was the Herrscher of Finality, he might attack her outright.

Of course, if she were a complete Herrscher, she wouldn't be afraid. The problem was that she was currently very weak, still in the development stage, and couldn't withstand a single blow from Kevin.

As long as she didn't act recklessly, nothing bad would happen. So, Bai Mo continued reading the messages with peace of mind.

[CakeLover: "We've discussed this question before. So far, it doesn't seem harmful. In fact, it helps us solve many problems."]

[CakeLover: "For instance, if you need something, you can click on the group chat's store and purchase it. You can also list items for sale in the store."]

[CakeLover: "Purchasing items requires points, which can currently be earned by checking in daily and sending messages. You can also send red packets to transfer points."]

[CakeLover: "Like my strawberry cakes, which I asked Miss Exusiai to buy for me."]

[ApplePieLover: "Yeah, yeah. This doctor buys strawberry cakes five or six times a day. Aren't you afraid of getting cavities?"]

Reading Romani's messages, Bai Mo learned about some of the chat group's functions.

However, she could travel between worlds, which the other group members couldn't do.

She wondered if it would eventually be possible to invite others to her world, like in many of the chat group novels she had read. But that was a concern for later, and Bai Mo didn't worry about it now.

CakeLover: "Impossible! Strawberry cakes are a belief, just like a Magical Girl! They are endlessly delicious and infinitely enjoyable!"]

[RichestShrineMaiden: "Get lost, you otaku!"]

["The Richest Shrine Maiden: "But where is the newcomer? It could also be said that she's fr another world, because it seems that the people in the group are not from the same world."]

[ApplePieLover: "That's right, it's like Gensokyo where Reimu is. I've looked at the entire map of Terra and haven't found such a place."]

[CakeLover: "This group seems to select people from various world planes, so everyone here is from different worlds."

[Bai Mo: "Can't we enter each other's worlds? By the way, I'm currently residing in New Zealand."]

Seeing the conversation heading in this direction, Bai Mo also chimed in.

[CakeLover: "Currently, it's not possible. Otherwise, I would definitely go to Miss Exusiai's world to buy a bunch of supplies for Chaldea."]

[pplePieLover: "Yes, I also want to visit Reimu's place and see what kind of creatures yokai are."]

[CakeLover: "@Bai Mo, the newcomer, you should be in the modern world, right? New Zealand exists in my world too. Maybe we are from the same world after all."]

Seeing the mention from someone named Romani, Bai Mo felt a complicated emotion. When she saw Romani's death in the original story, Bai Mo felt very sad.

However, this time was different. She now had the power to interact with them. Bai Mo firmly believed that she would have the power to change their fate and let them live happily.

There's no need to meddle in others' affairs, no need for a saintly heart. Everything is done according to one's wishes. If shs likes someone, he likes them. If she dislikes them, she dislikes them.

Making the people she likes happy is something Bai Mo is willing to do, at least.

Snapping out of it, Bai Mo quietly replied to Romani's message.

[Bai Mo: "Indeed, I am in the modern world, but not in the same world as you, Doctor."]

[CakeLover: "Is that so? But why are you so sure that we are not from the same world?"]

[Kevin Kaslana: "...New Zealand exists in my world too."]

[ApplePieLover: "Kevin, you're not lurking anymore. Seems like you're attracted to this topic. But why are you so sure you're not from the same world as the Doctor, Bai Mo?"]

[RichestShrineMaiden: "Same question +1"]

"Pffft, Kevin, aren't you the cool and aloof god? Why are you here at this hour?"

Taking a sip of water, Bai Mo almost spit it out. Mainly because Kevin is too obsessed with Honkai, and Bai Mo is not eager to interact with him.

But since they're all in the same group, they'll meet sooner or later. It's better to chat more now and try to get acquainted. It'll be easier to explain later.

So, Bai Mo continued to reply.

[Bai Mo: "Hmm, this explanation is a bit complicated. Simply put, your daily lives and actions are recorded in documentary form, and I happen to be the viewer."]

[Bai Mo: "I believe Doctor would understand this better, after all, Chaldea can observe, right?"]

[ApplePieLover: "!!! Observing daily life!?"]

[ApplePieLover: "Doesn't that mean our privacy is exposed!?"]

[RichestShrineMaiden: "Huh~ So, the newcomer is a shut-in like the Doctor? But can the Doctor really observe such things? It seems like someone else who loves to peek into others' privacy like a certain old lady."]

"Damn, forgot about that. I'm still too young after all. Now, my impression as a promising youth is ruined."

Reading the comments in the group, Bai Mo almost felt like vomiting. Is this what they mean by making things worse while trying to explain? But it seems like it's really her poor choice of words.

And besides, the impression of being a promising youth doesn't seem to matter much. After all, she's a girl now, and a beautiful one at that...

Thinking of this, Bai Mo immediately edited the text and prepared to explain.

[CakeLover: "Chaldea is a legitimate organization! @RichestShrineMaiden, it's not like what you said. We do this to ensure the continuation of human civilization! And Chaldea can only observe events in this world."]

[RichestShrineMaiden: "Alright, alright, it was just a joke. I apologize."]

[Kevin Kaslana: "Observation, huh? This is similar to the Su's own Project Velaka."]

[Bai Mo: "It's not really daily life, how could it be so detailed?"]

[Bai Mo: "Simply put, I can only observe certain events happening at a specific point, and these events happen to involve you personally. That's why I can observe what you do in these events, rather than directly observing you skipping the events."]

[CakeLover: "I see. So, if we don't do anything or get involved in specific events, you can't observe us, right?"]

[Bai Mo: "That's right, I only observe events, and you guys are just the people involved in these events."]

[Bai Mo: "You can just call me Bai Mo, instead of the strange 'newcomer'."]

Explaining is really troublesome. It seems that things that require too much brainpower aren't suitable for me. It's all because zhd didn't study hard enough back then.

Bai Mo racked her brains and said something that others might not understand, but fortunately, Romani understood it, which made Bai Mo very relieved.

[Kevin Kaslana: "Hello Bai Mo, although it's a bit abrupt, I still want to ask, can you observe my side, or have you observed events in my world?"]

[Bai Mo: "Kevin Kaslana, the Deliverance from the Thirteen Flamechasers of Fire Moth if I'm not mistaken, you're still in the Sea of Quanta, right? Or have you come out already?"]

Seeing Kevin's question, Bai Mo decided to be honest. After all, although she is the Herrscher of Finality, she hasn't done anything wrong, and she isn't affected by Honkai's consciousness.

Compared to deceit, Bai Mo prefers empathy, treating the people in the group as friends.

Besides, she wants to liberate them from tragic endings. How could she be stiff because of these things?

[Kevin Kaslana: "No, I'm currently still in the Sea of Quanta. Does that mean you've observed me coming out?"]

[Bai Mo: "That's right, one day in the future, you will return to the real world using the power of the Gem of Desire."]

[Kevin Kaslana: "Since I've come out, how did the Honkai end up in the end? What about humanity? Has the End come?"]

Seeing this, Bai Mo couldn't help but get excited. After all, spoiling things feels really good, especially when the other person wants to know.

But Bai Mo decided to say what she had to say. After all, she came here intending to change the outcome.

After all, the ending portrayed in the Post-Honkai Oddyssey is too brutal for her.

Seeing that there were only conversations between her and Kevin in the group, Bai Mo knew that others definitely wouldn't want to interrupt their conversation.

[Bai Mo: "I've forgotten the specifics, but 99% of Earth's Honkai energy was sealed on the Moon."]

After organizing her thoughts, Bai Mo directly sent out the message. After all, she hadn't played much APHO, and it was difficult to specify the exact plot.

[Kevin Kaslana: "99%? Thank you for the information. It's very meaningful to me. On behalf of the pioneers, I thank you."]

[Kevin Kaslana: "Unfortunately, I don't know how to repay you. If you need anything, I'll try to fulfill your request after I eliminate the Honkai."]

[Kevin Kaslana: "I still have some so-called points here. I hope you can take them first."]

Ding!

[Kevin Kaslana has sent you a points red envelope.]

Ding!

[Bai Mo has received Kevin Kaslana's red envelope.]

[Bai Mo: "Actually, if possible, I hope you can help me obtain an identification from the World Serpent. After all, we're all in the same world, but due to some reasons, I've become undocumented..."]

After receiving the red envelope from Kevin, Bai Mo directly explained her current situation, hoping Kevin could help her. After all, this is just a simple matter for Kevin. Compared to getting information from her, this is nothing.

Immediately, Kevin, surprised, also agreed to this matter, and then went to contact the World Serpent's staff to meet Bai Mo.

And Bai Mo also left the group chat after a while, after all, she also needed to prepare, right?
