Opening a Manga Store in Mondstadt (Re-edit)

The world of Teyvat.

Next to Mondstadt's blacksmith shop, a newly opened manga store named "New Century" quietly began its business. The interior of the store was exquisitely decorated with a modern style. It had two floors, with the upper floor serving as a living space and the lower floor for business. The lower floor had an area of about 110 square meters, lined with empty antique bookshelves. However, there were no books on those shelves.

They were all empty.A poster was hung at the entrance of the shop, featuring characters unknown to the people of Mondstadt. At this moment, the door of the shop opened, and a young man walked out. He was the owner of the shop, Takarou. In reality, he was a traveler who remembered playing the Genshin Impact game and suddenly found himself in the world of Teyvat. Teyvat, a world filled with elemental powers, primarily the power of the Archons. It also possessed various lesser-known abilities such as martial arts, sorcery, mystical arts, and Yin-Yang techniques. Dangerous hilichurls were scattered throughout the wilderness.

For someone like Takarou, who frequently played the Genshin Impact game, he was quite familiar with Mondstadt, Liyue, and Inazuma, the three nations. As for the other nations, he only had a rough understanding of them.

Takarou glanced at the time. In about five days, Lumine or Aether would arrive in this world. Then, Mondstadt would face the Stormterror.

However, Lumine or Aether would be able to handle what came next. The only unknown was whether it would be Aether or Lumine who arrived this time.

"Dadada~"

While Takarou was lost in thought, an elven girl dressed in red with a backpack and carrying a Dodoco was running down from above. Takarou immediately recognized her identity.

"Klee??"

Klee was a beloved character among players in the previous world. When Klee entered the promotional banner, she nearly brought in a daily revenue of six million for miHoYo. It was only broken when the Raiden Shogun appeared. With her polite and lively personality, who wouldn't like her?

"Klee, are you going to blow up fish again?"

Thinking of this, Takarou suddenly spoke. Klee, who was running, quickly stopped and looked at Takarou.

"Big brother, who are you? Are you calling for Klee?"

"I'm Takarou, the owner of New Century Bookstore. You can read manga in my store. Would you like to take a look, Klee?"

"Manga?"

"But Klee is going out to play, not to read." Realizing she slipped up, Klee quickly tried to defend herself.

"In my manga store, reading manga can earn you rewards, you know."

"Rewards? What kind of rewards?" Upon hearing about rewards, Klee became curious.

"As for the rewards, it depends on your luck. So, would you like to take a look?"

"Okay~ Klee wants to see."

"Then come in with me." Takarou smiled and led the adorable Klee into the manga store.

As they entered the manga store, Klee curiously looked around but didn't see any manga on the bookshelves.

"Takarou big brother, where are the manga you mentioned?"

"The manga store just opened today, and Klee is the first customer, so you can read one for free."

"Here, take this Doraemon and enjoy it."

"But remember, you can't take the manga out of the store."

"Okay."

Klee looked at the characters on the manga book and realized she didn't recognize any of them. Then, she flipped open the first page and learned that the cat-like character in the manga was named Doraemon.

After more than half an hour, Klee finally finished reading.

"Takarou big brother, I'm done reading." Klee obediently handed the manga book to Takarou.

"Well, Takarou big brother, Klee is going to play now."

"Wait, Klee, don't you want your reward?"

"Oh, there's still a reward? Klee forgot."

"Takarou big brother, what's Klee's reward?"

"Just wait a moment."

'After reading Doraemon, Klee obtained a Bamboo Dragonfly.'

"Bamboo Dragonfly: Speed of 150 kilometers per hour, can fly continuously for eight hours, rechargeable, half a day of sunlight exposure for full charge."

A Bamboo Dragonfly?

This is perfect for Klee.

After all, the Wind Glider in Teyvat didn't fly very fast. But it would be different with the Bamboo Dragonfly.

"Klee, here, this is your reward." Takarou handed the Bamboo Dragonfly to Klee.

"Takarou big brother, what is this?" Looking at the small item in front of her, Klee asked curiously.

This item was called a Bamboo Dragonfly. When worn on the head, it could make the wearer fly. It could reach speeds of up to 150 kilometers per hour and fly continuously for eight hours. If it ran out of power, just expose it to sunlight for half a day, and it would be fully charged.

A Bamboo Dragonfly? Wearing it on her head would allow her to fly?

"Klee loved it!"

Klee was very happy. With the Bamboo Dragonfly, she could fly faster than the Wind Glider, and even Jean, the acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, wouldn't be able to catch her when she went fishing.

"Oh, by the way, Klee, you can tell your brother Albedo, brother Kaeya, sister Amber, and Jean about getting rewards for reading manga. They can also get rewards by coming to the manga store to read."

"Yay! Takarou big brother is a good person."

"Here."

Takarou handed the Bamboo Dragonfly to Klee. Klee happily accepted it and gave Takarou a "Good Person Card" before running off. Outside, holding the Bamboo Dragonfly in her hands, Klee quickly put it on her head, and...

She actually flew!

Wow, she's flying! So happy~

Watching herself fly higher and higher, Klee was extremely excited. Jean, the acting Grand Master of the Knights, had just finished her work and walked out of the headquarters when she saw a child in the air.

Looking closely, wasn't that Klee??

How could Klee fly without Wind Glider? And what was that thing on her head?

For a moment, Jean fell into deep thought.

"Dadada, Oh, how fun~"

Klee, carried by the Bamboo Dragonfly, had forgotten all about going fishing. She happily played around in Mondstadt. Flying here and there.

"Klee!!" At that moment, Jean's voice reached Klee's ears.

Startled, Klee shivered. She saw Jean standing outside the Knights of Favonius, calling her. Klee lowered her head and slowly flew towards Jean.

"Jean~" Landing on the ground, Klee lowered her head and dared not look at Jean.

"Klee, don't you know that flying is prohibited within Mondstadt?"

"But, but Klee didn't use the Wind Glider..."

Klee pouted, thinking that if she didn't use the Wind Glider, it shouldn't count as a mistake, right?

"??" Jean sighed and rubbed her forehead. Her voice softened as she squatted in front of Klee, looking at the child.

"Klee, can you tell me why you can fly without using the Wind Glider?"

"Um~"

"That's because Klee met Takarou big brother today. Takarou big brother let Klee read manga and gave her a reward."

"Takarou big brother, manga? Reward?"

What is this child talking about?

_________

"Klee, are you saying that this flying tool called Bamboo Dragonfly is obtained by reading manga in a shop owned by someone named Takarou?"

"Yes, yes, Jean, that's how it is." Jean stood up, crossed her arms.

"From the look of Klee, it doesn't seem like a lie."

"And this Bamboo Dragonfly flying tool seems convenient. It just so happens that I can go and take a look myself."

"Klee, where is this shop? Can you take me there?"

"Sure, Jean. Takarou big brother also said to tell Jean and Kaeya and the others."

"Then let's go, Klee." Jean, holding Klee's hand, let Klee lead the way to the New Century store.

After a while, they arrived outside the shop. Jean looked at the decoration outside the shop, which had several characters she didn't recognize.

"Takarou big brother, I brought Jean here." Takarou, sitting behind the counter, smiled slightly when he heard Klee's voice.

"Jean, acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, welcome to your visit."

"Mr. Owner, hello."

"I heard from Klee earlier that in your shop, you can get rewards by reading manga?"

"Yes, you can get rewards by reading manga."

"I just opened today, and Klee was the first customer, so she can read for free. As for Jean, you'll be the second customer, so you'll have to pay."

"Oh, I wonder how much it costs?"

"10,000 Mora. You can read for a day, but the manga can only be read in the store and cannot be taken away."

10,000 Mora? That's not expensive.

If she could find a flying tool like Klee's, that would be great. Jean pondered for a moment. Then she took out a money pouch.

"Mr. Owner, here's 10,000 Mora."

"Since there's only one book in the store right now, Jean, you can only read this one for now."

"When there are more manga books in the store, you can read others."

Takarou pointed to the Doraemon book on the shelf.

"Mr. Owner, did Klee also get her reward from this manga book?"

"That's right."

"Klee, you can play here while I read the manga."

"Okay~" Jean took the manga book and found a place to sit.

"Little Klee, do you want some candy?"

Takarou took out a lollipop and handed it to Klee.

"Thank you, Takarou big brother." As soon as she saw the candy, Klee's eyes lit up with joy.

Chapter One: A Robot from the Future.

From the Doraemon manga, Jean learned that Doraemon had come to this world from the future. And he appeared in the home of a boy named Nobita Nobi. After about half an hour, Jean had almost finished reading the book.

"Mr. Owner, I've finished reading." Jean placed the book on the shelf and approached Takarou.

"Just a moment."

[After Jean finished reading the Doraemon book, she obtained the Space Jump Pen.]

[Space Jump Pen: Draw a circle with this pen, and the circle will turn into a portal that can be traversed.]

[First, specify the destination, then enter the portal. Erase it with an eraser to remove it.]

In Jean's hand, a green pen appeared.

Looking at the pen, Jean was curious, "Mr. Owner, what is this pen for?"

"This is the Space Jump Pen. You can draw a circle with it, and the circle will turn into a portal that can be traversed."

"Specify the destination first, then enter the portal."

"Erase it with an eraser to remove it."

"It can take you anywhere." Takarou explained.

Anywhere? Jean, upon hearing this, was instantly surprised.

This is such a great thing!

"If you have doubts, you can try it," Takarou suggested.

Jean nodded. Since she had obtained this item, she decided to give it a try. Jean drew a circle in the air and said, "To the Knights of Favonius." Then she stepped into the circle. In an instant, she appeared in front of the gates of the Knights of Favonius.

"????" This is actually real!

Looking around, it was indeed the Knights of Favonius. At this moment, Jean fully believed. Then she walked back into the circle and returned to Takarou's shop.

"Mr. Owner, this is actually real!"

"Of course, as I said, when you read manga, you can obtain rewards," Takarou smiled.

Jean used an eraser to erase the circle she had drawn earlier.

Then she said, "Mr. Owner, according to what you said, as long as I come to read manga every day, I can get a reward every day?"

"That's right, it's like that. However, whether the rewards are good or not depends on your luck," Takarou explained. "It can be seen that both Jean and Klee have good luck."

Jean looked at the pen in her hand. It was more than just good. From now on, if Klee went out to bomb fish, she wouldn't have to go too far. She could just draw a circle and specify the places Klee had been, and she would appear right next to her.

Thinking of this, Jean couldn't help but look at Klee. Seeing Jean's gaze, Klee suddenly felt a bit scared. It seemed like Jean had already set her sights on her...

"Mr. Owner, isn't this pen too valuable for just 10,000 Mora? It's too cheap, isn't it?"

"It's fine. It's the rule in my shop. Everyone who comes to read manga only needs to pay 10,000 Mora. Whether the rewards are good or not depends on your own luck," Takarou explained. "That's how it is."

"I see. Mr. Owner, thank you. I will definitely come back to read manga tomorrow."

"Then, Mr. Owner, we'll be leaving."

"Klee, let's go. We're going to the Knights of Favonius."

"Okay."

"Goodbye, Takarou big brother. Klee will come to play with you tomorrow."

"Okay." Jean led Klee and left.

[Name: Takarou]

[Task 1: Serve 1 customer, get one manga draw, served 1 person, can draw 1 time.]

[Task 2: Serve 10 customers, get one manga draw, served 1 person, cannot draw.]

[Task 3: Accumulate serving 20 customers, get one exclusive reward, served 1 person, cannot claim.]

[Task 4: Accumulate serving 30 customers, get one exclusive reward, served 1 person, cannot claim.]

Only served one person? Klee didn't spend any money, so she wasn't included in this task. But it's still okay. It's the first day of opening, and I already served one customer. My luck is pretty good.

"System, draw it."

[Start drawing...]
