Is It Too Late to Leave the Chat Group?

Book 1: Chapter 28: How to Obtain the Administrator Title

Knock! Knock! Knock! “Elder Brother, I’m coming in!”

Chen Heng looked in the direction of the door and saw Sirin enter. Furthermore, she was holding a cup of…hot water in her hand? Yes, it is hot water, and it is still giving off steam.

Chen Heng quickly got up and took the cup of hot water.

“Did you get burned? Why are you carrying a cup of hot water? Don’t you know to use a tray? Just holding it directly will be hot. Let me see your hands!” Chen Heng made the cup float in the air and pulled Sirin’s hands closer to his eyes. Even Chen Heng found the cup hot, what more Sirin?

“I’m fine. My hands aren’t burned.”

“Elder Brother, I’m not stupid. I carried it by holding the rim.” Sirin did not pull her hand back from Chen Heng’s grip.

“Why are you carrying a cup of hot water?”

“Something seems to be bothering Elder Brother, so I brought a cup of hot water over. The Internet says that a cup of hot water can cure all diseases.”

“…” There’s nothing wrong.

“Elder Brother is fine. I just thought of something unhappy. Also, hot water cannot cure all diseases. It only has some effect on certain illnesses. You cannot trust everything you read on the Internet.”

“Oh! I see.

“Then, is Elder Brother feeling better now? Can Sirin help you with anything?”

“Elder Brother’s mood is naturally better with you around, my little angel Sirin.”

“Oh! Thank you for the compliment, Elder Brother!” Sirin felt slightly embarrassed.

“It’s not a compliment, just the truth.”

“I’m going back to my room first.” Sirin ran back to her room, covering her face with her hands.

“Don’t run so fast, Sirin!”

Chen Heng returned to the bed. This time, he opened the chat group interface.

He Who Knows Fate: Sirin is truly very cute, a complete angel.

He Who Knows Fate: Why aren’t you all saying anything?

He Who Knows Fate: That’s right. You are muted.

Administrator He Who Knows Fate unmuted Efreet.

Administrator He Who Knows Fate unmuted 17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady.

Efreet: Didn’t you say one hour?

He Who Knows Fate: Oh! You are online? Don’t tell me you have been staring at the chat group?

Efreet: I—Itsuka Kotori, Ratatoskr’s commander—have never suffered such humiliation before.

[TL Note: Ratatoskr is the organization that Itsuka Kotori belongs to. It is dedicated to protecting spirits. Here is more information: /wiki/Ratatoskr.]

He Who Knows Fate: Don’t. I was wrong.

He Who Knows Fate: Oh, right. I’m here to ask if there are any missions you recommend—the ones from the mission hall.

Efreet: Go see for yourself. I’m unsure of your abilities, so I do not have any suitable recommendations.

He Who Knows Fate: I’ll go take a look, then.

Hence, Chen Heng went to take a look at the mission hall. However, he did not find any good missions.

The mission hall had a filter function. Since Chen Heng was not confident of those missions with rewards above 5,000 points, he decided to reduce the search parameter for the rewards and saw this one:

Deport a Transmigrator (World Mission (Under One Person)): A world merger resulted in a transmigrator. Deport him.

Intel: Under One Person’s world consciousness: This fool is very irritating. Quickly send someone and chase him away. He uses his mind-reading ability and knowledge of this world’s story to pretend to be a prophet and swindle others. Furthermore, he is messing up the story. How can I put up with that? Intel? What other intel is there? This fool is only capable of mind-reading—at best, some martial art. Quickly get rid of him. Just seeing him irritates me.

Danger Level: 2 (Just one weakling)

Reward: 500 points + World consciousness’s friendship. (World consciousness: Why can’t I add more points? Huh? The transmigrator is too weak? But he is very irritating!)

[TL Note: Under One Person is a Chinese webcomic/anime. Here is its Wikipedia entry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Under_One_Person.]

Chen Heng looked at this mission, guessing that the powerhouses did not care about it, as it offered too few points, and the newcomers could not defeat that transmigrator. Thus, it had been left hanging. Also, what is this world consciousness’s friendship?

I should just ask the customer service about anything I don’t know.

“Miss Customer Service, are you there?”

What is it now?

“What is this world consciousness’s friendship?

You must be referring to the Deport a Transmigrator (World Mission (Under One Person)) mission, right?

“Yes.”

The world consciousness’s friendship can raise your evaluation points in the Dimension Administrators Association.

“Evaluation points?” contemporary romance

This is a new evaluation system installed after the update. The past accomplishments do not count. Do you see the danger level? Danger Level: 2. That will increase your evaluation points by 2 points. A mission with a danger level of 5 will increase your evaluation points by 5 points. However, a world consciousness’s friendship can increase the points by at least 100. Not every mission results in the world consciousness feeling grateful. After one’s points reach 1,000, one can apply to become an administrator. First come, first served. For now, there are only five administrator positions. That might change in the future.

“You did not mention this evaluation system.”

You didn’t ask, so why should I tell you?

Speaking of which, this world consciousness is quite a weirdo. It is a perfectionist. However, none of you picked up the mission. Otherwise, it would not have offered a world consciousness’s friendship.

“Why can’t you just increase the points reward?”

The rewards follow a strict standard. This transmigrator is only worth 500 points. This is also why the world consciousness added friendship.

“But I’m already an administrator. Is this even useful?”

Who knows? Perhaps the position of association chief might open up later? Furthermore, you can transfer evaluation points after becoming an administrator.

“I’m leaving first, then. I’m going to take the mission.”

Alright.

Accept the mission, accept the mission. One hundred evaluation points. This is great.

This was an exclusive mission. That meant after it was accepted, no one else could take it.

One needed effective tools to do good work, so Chen Heng intended to get more information about Under One Person first.

Which meant it was time to binge an anime again. Chen Heng prepared cola and chips.

The truth had to be told in full. The association store’s tangible goods were quite cheap. For example, snacks cost one point for a large parcel, a one-cubic-meter cardboard box. How awesome was that?

Two seasons, for a total of 36 episodes, played at double time; Chen Heng finished watching the anime in about eight hours. At first, he did it to get intel. Later on, he purely watched out of interest. In the meantime, he also cooked for Sirin and did other miscellaneous things. He finished collecting all the information he needed by nine o’clock. By then, Sirin had returned to her room.

Chen Heng prepared to transmigrate for the first time. He would return from the other world after completing the mission, arriving one minute after he left. He had asked about it beforehand.

Buzz! Chen Heng stepped into an oval-shaped black hole that suddenly appeared in front of him. Then, he only saw darkness.

When Chen Heng opened his eyes again, he found himself standing on a busy street. Clearly, he was in another world.

Someone from your Dimension Administrators Association finally came. Quickly chase that transmigrator away. He is an eyesore. The voice of a boy about 12 years old rang out in Chen Heng’s mind.
