6.94% Lost in Honkai, Starting the Gentleman Simulator / Chapter 5: Chapter 5: Dreamlike Life

Capítulo 5: Chapter 5: Dreamlike Life

(TL/N: Just to clarify okay? Every new scenario doesn't necessarily follow the "Canon" Story line okay.)

"Ah, I slept all day, so tired."

Lu Yu woke up from his sleep. The electronic screen of the game console showed the time as 10:29 pm. He walked to the window and looked at the nightfall in Longsky City.

The city in front of him was no different from the city where he lived before crossing over. The lights from countless homes illuminated the streets of Longsky City at night and dispelled the slight loneliness in Lu Yu's heart.

When a person wakes up in the evening after a nap, there's a unique sense of desolation in the heart, as if one has become disconnected from the world.

"Let's start the simulation."

The cooldown time for the simulator had ended, and it was time for him to embark on a new journey today.

[Simulation Begins]

[Talent Selection Phase: Each simulation will randomly generate 1-6 talents of varying qualities. The host can choose 1-3 talents from them.]

[Inherent - Passionate (3 stars): Your words easily move others.]

[1 - Seems Powerful (2 stars): You always want to find an opportunity to try feeding a tiger with your slipper.]

[2 - Dreamlike Life (5 stars): Congratulations! You are the center of the world and the favorite of destiny.]

[3 - Short Stature (1 star): Why do you wear shoes that add 30 cm of height?]

[4 - Addicted to Gambling (2 stars): I bet your gun has no bullets! Checkmate...]

[5 - Chuunibyou (1 star): Great Illusory Dream Senro... what was it again?]

Can five-star talents really be randomly generated?

"Hey, with this talent, I won't feel sleepy anymore!"

Starting with a five-star talent, does this mean that the simulation will be smooth sailing? Will it lead to a perfect ending?

"I choose Inherent, and also 2 and 4..."

Lu Yu didn't plan to use the refresh card. He didn't have many points, and currently, his priority was repaying the system's loan. Moreover, with this five-star talent, he had no chance of losing.

As for Addicted to Gambling and Seems Powerful, after thinking for a moment, Lu Yu chose Addicted to Gambling. The talent Dreamlike Life mentioned that he was the favorite of destiny, so a simple gamble should be no problem.

[Simulation Officially Begins]

[Age 1: You were born into a wealthy family, and there were auspicious signs during your birth, with purple qi filling the sky, even attracting the awareness of Honkai.]

Starting with such a big event?

[Age 3: You had a very healthy body from a young age. During a physical examination at three years old, your physical qualities even scared the doctor.]

[Age 5: Your outstanding performance in kindergarten earned you praise from your teachers, and your parents were very happy.]

[Age 7: Due to your outstanding performance, you skipped a grade and came to primary school early.]

[Age 8: You noticed a purple-haired girl in the class who was ostracized by other classmates due to her identity. It is said that she was very popular before, but after her father was imprisoned, that popularity turned into exclusion. How will you handle this situation?]

[Stop other classmates' actions: I'll stand up for her. Who dares to bully her now?]

[Bully the purple-haired girl with other classmates: There's such a thing? Count me in!]

[The talent Dreamlike Life activates, providing an additional option!]

[Stand with the girl: From today onwards, we're best friends.]

"I choose option 3."

[You stood up for the purple-haired girl when she was ostracized, and you became good friends. Your outstanding physical condition made some students in the class fear you, and they canceled their plans to ostracize you and the purple-haired girl. The girl was very grateful to you.]

"Oh, if it were a normal situation, I would have chosen the first option, and then I would have been ostracized along with the purple-haired girl. Five-star talents really change everything. This directly alters the entire trajectory."

[Age 9: Your relationship with the purple-haired girl gradually grew closer, and she began to rely on you.]

[Age 11: Numerous Honkai beasts attacked the academy where you and the girl were studying. When escaping, the girl was surrounded by Honkai beasts after falling down. What will you do?]

[Run away: I'm out of here.]

[Save the purple-haired girl: Don't be afraid, I'm coming!]

"Save her."

[You rushed into the midst of the Honkai beasts and protected the girl. You were prepared to fight the Honkai beasts to the death, but unexpectedly, the Honkai beasts suddenly knelt down and paid their respects to you, and some even imitated human gestures and bowed to you.]

Lu Yu: "?????"

Lu Yu suddenly felt that something was wrong. This clearly wasn't a normal event. The five-star talent was too overpowered, leading to a chaotic life trajectory?

[Age 12: Your earth-shattering deeds were spread all over the world, attracting the attention of some organizations.]

[Age 13: The event of purple qi filling the sky during your birth was also exposed. Otto, the head of the Honkai organization, found you and hoped to cooperate with you to study some matters. Do you accept?]

[Accept: Honkai, bow down to me!]

[Refuse: I was born with purple qi, I am the emperor, what do you deserve?]

"I refuse."

[You refused Otto's invitation. You just wanted to live a peaceful daily life, but Otto was already obsessed with Kallen. He kidnapped you!]

[Age 15: You were locked up in a research institute. You resorted to death as a last resort, and finally, Otto promised to let you go after achieving his goal.]

[Age 17: You were observed as a research subject in the institute by Otto for two years. One day, the girl with purple hair suddenly appeared in your memory. She was enveloped in surging thunder and broke the shackles on your hand with a sword. Raiden Mei took you out of the research institute, but in order to save you, she killed many researchers from the Honkai organization. The Honkai organization began to hunt you both down and declared you suspected Welt.]

[Age 19: You and Mei were evading the pursuit of the Honkai organization while living a difficult life.]

[Age 22: The two of you got married, depending on each other for survival.]

[Age 24: You and Kiana continued to evade the pursuit of the Honkai organization.]

[Age 26: You and Mei were still evading the pursuit of the Honkai organization.]

[Age 28: You had enough of this life. You recalled that you once made the Honkai beasts kneel, and you decided to take a gamble. You planned to control the Honkai beasts to do something big. Your wife fully supported your decision as she was tired of hiding every day.]

[Age 29: You guessed right. You were favored by the world and successfully attracted a large number of Honkai beasts, leading them to attack the Schicksal headquarters. The Schicksal organization couldn't deal with both threats and stopped pursuing you. Through this, you discovered something significant: it seems you can directly command the Honkai beasts and deadwalkers!]

[Age 30: The Honkai organization considered you the number one enemy, and they issued a notice. You had become the enemy of humanity, hurting people with the Honkai beasts; you were no longer considered human. Under the call of Schicksal, people all over the world saw you as their enemy, and major organizations started hunting you down.]

[Age 31: Filled with anger, you controlled the Honkai beasts to counterattack humanity. It's not your fault; these damn humans are wrong! You started a war with humanity!]

[Age 40: You controlled a massive army of Honkai beasts, waging war against humanity.]

[Age 50: You controlled a massive army of Honkai beasts, waging war against humanity.]

[Age 60: You controlled a massive army of Honkai beasts, waging war against humanity.]

[Age 62: You won! You annihilated all humans who wanted to destroy you, and now, only you and your wife are left in the whole world.]

[Age 86: You died of natural causes.]

[Simulation Ends]

[Age of Death: 86]

[Cause of Death: Natural causes.]

[Simulation Ends]

[This simulation has ended. The audience will now rate the simulation. Please wait.]

[Rating complete. This simulation scored 100 out of 100. The host received a score of 50 and obtained the system evaluation: mixed reviews.]

[Audience's review: A somewhat regretful life.]

[You have received 25 points as a reward for this simulation. Please check your account.]

"Wait, I didn't achieve an ending?"

[The host did not meet the minimum requirements to trigger an ending in this simulation, thus unable to trigger an ending.]

What a dreamlike life with a five-star talent. This simulation process was terrifying, regardless of its rationality. For Lu Yu, it truly was a dreamlike life.

To sum it up in one sentence:

[What could be cooler in a world of collapse than leading a bunch of Honkai beasts to crush the Schicksal organization? There is! It's crushing all of humanity!]

However, it was evident that this dreamlike life was designed specifically for Lu Yu.

Unfortunately, if Lu Yu's guess was correct, his simulator was not centered around him; the real protagonist should be a certain girl he encounters in each simulation.

This simulation didn't reach an ending because it had already reached a point where the world only had the two of them left. What was there to follow?

For Lu Yu, this life was truly a dreamlike one, but for the purple-haired girl, it was meaningless.

"What a waste of a five-star talent. Sigh..."


Capítulo 6: Chapter 6: Are You Forcing Me to Die?

"What was that just now?"

In the dormitory of St. Freya Academy, accompanied by a flickering light, Raiden Mei returned to her own room.

"Was it an illusion?"

Looking around, Raiden Mei confirmed that this was indeed her room.

"Right, the time."

Raiden Mei looked at the white bear clock on the bedside table, which showed the time as 19:57.

"Could it really be an illusion?"

Recalling everything she had just witnessed, Raiden Mei shook her head, finding it hard to believe that it was all just an illusion.

However, she clearly remembered that the time when she returned to the dormitory was also 19:57, which means only a few seconds had passed since she entered the other dimension?

No, this doesn't make sense.

What she had experienced just now obviously lasted more than a few seconds. It's possible that the few seconds that seemed to have passed were just her own illusion because time always flies when one is pondering things.

"But... it felt so real."

Remembering all she had been through, Raiden Mei denied the fact that it was an illusion. She was very certain that everything that had just happened was real.

But if everything was real, then what she had witnessed just now was too bizarre, right?

Who am I?

I am Raiden Mei, a student of St. Freya Academy, destined to become a Valkyrie, wielding weapons to fight against the Honkai. One day, I will drive the Honkai out of this world.

How could this version of herself join the side of the Honkai and oppose humanity because of a man? And eventually, even join him in destroying all of humanity?

This world is just too insane. Of course, the version of herself that would choose to destroy the world with a man is equally crazy.

The actions of that version of Raiden Mei are frightening, to the point that the current Raiden Mei feels like she's not herself.

Well, there might be a tiny, less than one percent, difference?

As for the remaining ninety-nine percent, Raiden Mei is very certain that it is her.

Because if it's her, faced with that situation, she would make the same choice!

Compared to that crazy world, the fact that she would marry a man doesn't make Raiden Mei feel strange at all.

Valkyries are also women, and not every Valkyrie chooses to be alone until old age. Instead, many Valkyries get married at the appropriate age, and Raiden Mei is not surprised by that.

If I have to talk about something unexpected, it would be the power inside my body.

"Inside my body..."

Sitting on top of a dragon, with enormous shoulder armor floating behind her, an invisible hand controlling sharp blades, and purple lightning surrounding her, even horns resembling a demon growing on her head.

"Thunder, submit to me!"

With each swing of her sharp blade and the dragon's purple breath, the pursuers of destiny turned into lifeless corpses. The icy pupils exuded such coldness when she acted that it even frightened herself. Was this the way she treated human life? Could this really be herself?

"..."

"Tomorrow, I should thoroughly investigate the library."

Relaxing her mind, Raiden Mei collapsed onto the bed. Everything she had just experienced was too intense for a young girl, and she felt tired now. She decided not to overthink things and rest.

Perhaps when she wakes up early tomorrow, she will find that everything was just an illusion caused by excessive training.

However, when she closed her eyes, everything she experienced came back to her mind again.

This time, what appeared wasn't her transformed into the god of death on the dragon, but the image of the man lying on the bed before dying.

Perhaps due to the influence of power, right before the man's death, Raiden Mei herself didn't appear very old. She still looked young and beautiful, with only some changes in her figure and temperament, making her more mature than her current self.

But the man, on the other hand, had aged with white hair. She looked at the man who had changed her life, watching him slowly die before her very eyes.

A touch of heartache, a tinge of regret, mixed with some pain, but mostly an empty heart and confusion about the future. The last person who could accompany her in the world had passed away. Where should she go from here?

Fortunately, the story ended here. As for what happened to Raiden Mei afterward, she didn't care.

As she thought about it, the drowsiness that arose from exhaustion enveloped Raiden Mei, and she slowly fell asleep.

Come to think of it, she seems not to know the man's name? That's really silly. She doesn't even know the name of the man she was supposed to spend her life with...

"So you're saying this time the protagonist is Raiden Mei? I just directly married Raiden Mei through the incredible talent of Dream Life, and then lived a whole life with her?"

"Damn, this is just too fantastic!"

Unfortunately, dreams are dreams. For Lu Yu, everything happening in the simulator was just lifeless and uninteresting text.

There were no visuals in the simulator, not even simple stick-figure illustrations.

Even neon light novels have some illustrations and covers to ignite readers' imagination, but this simulator has turned the dreamed-of life into meaningless words.

"You married Raiden Mei. You had a wedding with her. You spent a wonderful night together."

That's it? These dry words are simply nauseating!

"Can't you give me some fun stuff, something explicit for adults?"

Lying on the bed in frustration, Lu Yu felt that he should continue playing the game console he bought yesterday. At least, in the gal games, he could enjoy some illustrations that would fuel his fantasies, unlike this simulator that is so stingy.

Suddenly, the system's voice sounded.

[Yes!]

"Huh! Are you serious?!"

[Of course, I am.]

"Hey, that's good news. With this, I won't be sleepy anymore. Tell me more."

[The host has already reached the conclusion and unlocked the corresponding module. Now, the host can use points to buy opportunities for random interference at the beginning of the simulation. Each chance allows the host to interfere once in the fixed events of the simulation, and the host will take part in the events as their true self after interference.]

Hearing the system's explanation, Lu Yu's first thought wasn't about any explicit content with the female protagonists. Instead, he discovered something crucial.

"You mean I can interfere with events? Is there a time limit for interfering?"

[No, the host can choose to intervene at any point in the simulation. However, please be aware that interference implies uncertainty in the events. Once the host interferes, the events following the interference will change based on the results of the interference.]

"Got it. So what if I interfere with events that won't affect the subsequent progress? For example, the recent wedding with Raiden Mei. I only want to experience the wedding with her. It shouldn't have any consequences, right?"

[I cannot provide an answer. All answers will be based on the host's actions during interference, and any actions that comply with the events will not disrupt the subsequent development.]

Although the system gave him a riddle, Lu Yu still understood its meaning and got a general idea of the purpose of this interference.

"So, how many points do I need for each interference? And how many times can I interfere in a single simulation?"

[In a single simulation, the maximum number of interferences is currently three. The first time costs 5 points, the second time 50 points, and the third time 500 points.]

"Got it..."

Hearing the system's response, Lu Yu realized that this thing wasn't meant to make him happy. The exorbitant prices were undoubtedly intended for him to use in essential events to make changes to the storyline.

Of course, if he was sure he would play this simulation, he could use 5 points to experience it a bit. If it resulted in a crappy ending, he could just restart. After all, he's someone who has already been strung up and fed to the Honkai beasts by the Queen. In the simulator, he'll do as he pleases. If things don't turn out well, he can always start over!

[Note that once the host chooses to interfere, the final event of this simulation will be forcibly set as the interference.]

"Final event? Wait! Does the final event mean..."

Lu Yu recalled the final events from the previous simulations.

At 22 years old: he was drowned in the Huangpu River by the father of a little princess.

At 34 years old: he fed himself and the Sea Lemon to the Honkai beasts during a sacred duel, and they both died.

At 38 years old: he fed the potion he had researched to a girl, and he died satisfied in her arms.

At 86 years old: he died a natural death.

"Uh... I knew this simulation wasn't going to be right."

Thinking about the likelihood of experiencing death every day in his future, Lu Yu couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Damn! System, you're forcing me to die!"
