[There are no main quests this time, you can return at any time. This instance has multiple hidden quests, and the host is encouraged to actively discover and trigger them.]
[Wishing the host a happy honeymoon.]
Mei's reaction to the sudden proposal was first surprise, then emotion.
It was not due to external influence; Mei made her decision based on her own thoughts, accepting this not-so-grand proposal.
Takatsuki's proposal naturally wasn't meant to end so simply.
After this engagement, Takatsuki naturally didn't want it to end so hastily.
So, he brought Mei to a new world.
With Takatsuki's current strength, merely completing the basic main quests was basically no longer a difficult task.
The result was something Takatsuki hadn't expected.
This system really does have consciousness!
Although it often doesn't respond to questions, it does reply when important matters arise.
And at moments like this, it's so damn considerate.
"Is this... a forest?"
Looking at the towering trees around her, Mei looked around and then at Takatsuki.
"What's the mission this time?"
Mei also knew that every world had a main quest that needed to be completed, and if it wasn't completed, they could never return.
Although she once wished to never return to that world, now she had attachments, so she naturally wouldn't want to stay in other worlds forever.
"None."
"What do you mean?"
"It means there's no mission."
Takatsuki opened the system screen and showed the mission to Mei.
"Ah... honeymoon... or something."
Mei's face flushed: "Takatsuki, how could your mission be like that..."
"Quite considerate, isn't it?"
Shrugging, Takatsuki wrapped an arm around Mei's slender waist: "Since the system said so, let's enjoy ourselves."
"..."
"Mm."
All along, Takatsuki had relied on the issued missions to determine the world he was in.
So, with no missions now, he couldn't determine his current world either.
However, after the Astral Express incident, he also knew that there could be worlds he didn't know about. It seems the system he developed isn't connected only to worlds he's familiar with.
Takatsuki and Mei walked together through this forest.
They discovered that this might not be a pure forest, but a forest that had emerged on top of a former civilization.
If one had to describe it, it was a world formed after a former city was destroyed thousands of years ago, and plants grew rampant.
"This spot will do."
In this world, where plants grew wildly everywhere, there was truly no need for exploration, and the aura sensing didn't detect any human presence within several kilometers, only some wild animals.
After taking Mei around for a while, Takatsuki chose a giant, towering tree.
If this forest had truly grown for thousands of years, then this tree was probably as old as the forest itself.
Takatsuki said, looking at the towering tree, which was hundreds of meters tall.
"It's a rare opportunity, how about we stay in a treehouse?"
Mei nodded.
"How do we do it?"
Looking at the towering tree, if Minegishi Toshiki's character card were still available, he could use his spiritual power to make the tree automatically form a tree hollow.
Although he no longer had that character card, Takatsuki had many other methods.
"For the treehouse, let's start from that position."
It takes a lot of time for ordinary people to build a treehouse, but the people present were not ordinary.
"Mei, call out Herrscher of Thunder too, her abilities will be very convenient."
Actually, Mei didn't need to call her; Herrscher of Thunder and Mei were originally one, but she usually didn't appear much.
After Takatsuki finished speaking, she appeared from Mei's body.
"You only think of me when there's work to be done."
As soon as Herrscher of Thunder appeared, it was clear that she was a bit unhappy.
Similar to the situation during the Herrscher period, Herrscher of Thunder could share Mei's memories and emotions within Mei's body, but if Herrscher of Thunder had any emotions, Mei couldn't feel them.
This is why most of the time, when the Herrscher consciousness and the main body consciousness clashed, the former would win; the innate advantage was too great.
Facing the somewhat displeased Herrscher of Thunder, Takatsuki took out another small box...
The red Stone of Aja was not small; cutting it to make rings could produce a large number, and Takatsuki naturally wouldn't be so foolish as to make just one.
Looking at Herrscher of Thunder in the distance, who was using her reconstruction ability with Mei to create the materials needed for the treehouse, both Mei and Herrscher of Thunder were different from the Raiden Mei Takatsuki had seen in games.
But it's normal to think about it; in games, most of the time, various events happened intensely. Later, Raiden Mei even went to World Serpent because of Kiana, truly becoming Herrscher of Thunder.
The Raiden Mei at that time had a personality more like a combination of Herrscher of Thunder's and Mei's current personalities.
Mei was more gentle, willing to show kindness even to strangers, while Herrscher of Thunder was more inclined to a slightly tsundere queen personality: proud, cold, and only showing kindness to those she cared about.
If the two combined, it would probably be a personality that is gentle to her own people and cold to others.
Switching to the Brush Brush Fruit, although Takatsuki could draw a treehouse by himself using the Brush Brush Fruit, this was not his solo show after all, so Takatsuki still chose the more troublesome method: he and Mei separately made the parts of the treehouse and then assembled them.
Pulling down a few vines from the tree and securing a ladder, even though neither Takatsuki nor Mei needed a ladder to jump directly into the treehouse twenty meters high, the sense of ritual still had to be maintained.
A small interlude occurred while building the treehouse.
Since this world seemed to have no other people, Takatsuki's idea for building the treehouse was that two rooms would be enough; a living room and kitchen were completely unnecessary, as there would be no guests, and cooking could be done outdoors to ensure the treehouse's cleanliness.
However, Mei, who was responsible for making the furniture, only made one double bed.
Looking at the slightly blushing girl, Takatsuki immediately tore down the wall in the middle of the treehouse, leaving only one integrated room.
Building the treehouse took several hours, and the sun began to set in the west.
From this point of view, this world should still be Earth; at least the sun and moon aspects are the same as Earth, with no red moon or three moons setting.
After installing some lighting equipment around the treehouse, a treehouse was completed in just five hours.
