Lord of Fire is a Gamer

Tour



''Hey Megumin! We have a guest.''

I know suddenly forcing a guest on her like this is pretty rude, but I'm not forcing a guest on Megumin.

Megumin can see the close proximity of her portal, so if she didn't want Kurumi here, she could refuse to open her portal and I would get the cue and leave.

So it's all good.

Megumin gave a lazy wawe. ''Hi.''

Kurumi wawed back awkwardly. I guess she expected her to be more excited? I don't know honestly.

''I was thinking of going to Wan Shi Tong's library after a small rest. Do you want to come?'' I ask as I sit down on a couch next to her ''It's cool if you don't want to, I will copy every book related to explosions for you.''

Yes, I decided to go there after a very small rest.

I wanted to learn more about alchemy and blacksmithing, but those plans were destroyed by me the moment I remembered something.

I honestly wanted to face-slap myself at the time.

I could get good books and instructions about blacksmithing, stealth, alchemy, or whatever I want from the library!

That place probably has all the information and knowledge in the world. I can find any topic I want to study and learn, and just read them.

I don't have to learn everything by myself, I can read books for fucks sake.

''I'm in the middle of JoJo part 2 and I don't plan on getting out of here before I finish part 7. Go ahead, I will be fine.'' she said lazily.

I snorted at that.

Previously when I was in Megumin's divine realm, before leaving for the Northern Water Tribe, I searched the Neet's memories thoroughly.

Not for the manga, or anime of course.

It's just that, this guy had read so many fictions in his life, I could steal *ahem* borrow, so many ideas from his memories, it was crazy.

Alchemy and more techniques and stuff were all there for me to grab.

Since I was looking around, I felt like I could make Megumin a favor, but accidentally turned her into a Neet. Well, just a budding Neet actually.

Wait.

This might be dangerous.

She won't be like 'him' as well, right?''

''No you're coming with me.

''No.''

''Yes.''

''No''

''Can I convince you somehow?'' I asked with a sigh.

I can't force her out of here. This is her Divine realm after all. I will have to entice her somehow.

She glanced at me with the corner of her eye.

''Why do you want me to leave this much?''

'Being honest would be better right?' I affirm my thoughts.

''You might be getting addicted. I don't want you to-''

She cut me off with a snort before answering.

''I'm just binge reading a manga, don't worry about it too much. Nothing will exceed my love for explosions.''

''Besides, I only have JoJo in my hands, you can simply not give me any more of these Earth entertainment things.''

And just like that, she completely destroyed me with sheer fucking logic.

Whew, I guess the small thought of her becoming a Neet scared me enough to forget about these details.

Of course, she wouldn't give up on her love for explosions that easily!

Kurumi is still smiling awkwardly next to me. She's completely lost on the topic, isn't she?

Should I integrate her?

Do I reallly want her to be a long term company of ours?

I'm gonna do a pro gamer move and procrastinate on that decision. I'm a true gamer after all.

She's just a guest for now.

Anyways, back to the library.

Visiting the library shouldn't be that hard.

I still hate sand, but I guess I can bear it since I know the exact location of the library and I don't have to search for it for hours.

It shouldn't take too long to get there if I fly fast enough.

Previously, I was also worried about Wan Shi Tong's response to me, he's kind of introverted and most likely hates humans after all.

But it doesn't really matter that much anymore.

The relationship bonuses I got from the recent quests will be tremendously helpful in there.

These bonuses are invisible, but they're still there.

Also, I realized something. Those bonuses aren't working logically. People don't have to know about my heroic deeds to respect me, those bonuses work automatically. If they respect me thanks to my heroic deeds, then that respect gets added on top of the quest bonus.

So, Wan Shi Tong should have a pretty good impression of me.

''You wanna come?'' I nudged Kurumi.

It would be even more guaranteed if Kurumi came along with me. She's an old spirit after all.

''Yeah, it's been a while since I've seen the old owl.'' she shrugged her shoulders, hiding a small blush.

Wow, I underestimated her determination. She can hold herself back really well.

Anyways, even if all of these somehow didn't work and Wan Shi Tong hated me for no reason, I can still trade knowledge with him.

I literally have the information about another world. You could even say it's knowledge of the future.

I doubt he could refuse such trade.

If that doesn't work?

I will come with Aang and take all the books before the library gets sealed.

Yeah, no blasting.

Unfortunately, even if he decides to act like a massive dick, I can't do anything to that guy.

He's an ancient spirit and according to the avatar world, he is the most knowledgeable being, ever.

Yeah, it's not worth the trouble.

-------

I gave tour to Kurumi, which didn't last long since there's not much to see here.

''And here's my cute son, or girl. I don't actually know its gender yet.''

I said to her while pointing at the gigantic dragon egg.

'Did it get bigger somehow? Meh, it's probably a good thing.'

I watched in amusement as her eyes twitched at the sight.

I don't know how big dragon eggs are supposed to be, but I'm going to take a wild guess and assume not this big.

This egg is bigger than me. Literally.

''Why is it so big?'' she said finally.

''Because he's mine.''

Yeah, I'm not telling you how I juiced him up with drugs.

Contemplate about it by yourself now. Fuck you, this is your secret punishment. This is the only way I can punish you without you enjoying it.

I managed to get her attention after a minute of staring and we continued our tour.

''Megumin is pretty chill. Ask for a cake, she will make it. Just don't insult explosions or some shit.''

I think she's supposed to be a God too, so she should know about these things.

But I learned about her divinity from the system's observe skill, so I'm supposed to be ignorant of that. Suits me. She can talk to me about it any time she wants, I don't care much about it as long as it doesn't endanger me or my close ones.

''You just hang out, read JoJo, eat cake, or something. I need to make some food for my baby.''

Since my boy/girl has already dried up the potions I left for him/her, I will need to make more.

I wonder what kind of abomination will come out of it. Hopefully a small chibi cute dragon, or something truly horrendous, like a metal dragon.

No in-between.

''Chose something, and go to the extremes with it!'' I advise ​my child.

''Look at Megumin. She became a Goddess of Explosions because she focused too much on it. If she did it, you can too.''

I don't know if he/she can understand or not, but whatever, it's the thought that matters.

Suddenly, the egg shook slightly.
