Chapitre 167: Main Mission's Rewards - Switching Random Worlds!
Meg smiled. "Dragon eggs, from the Shadow land beyond the Asshai," she said, the translator turning her words in the alien Dothraki for the Khal. Then she pointed at Kai. "My lord husband had gone to great lengths to procure them. Three dragon eggs, though the eons have turned them a stone, are the only things that can justify a Targaryen beauty, he had told me."
Their eyes matched. Kai smiled at her, thinking about what would he have done if he were in Viserys' shoes. "An honor to see you, princess," he said, gently. "Three dragon eggs for the three heads of the Targaryen Dragon."
The little girl seemed confused but passed thanks meekly, anyway.
Kai noticed she was shivering a bit, as he bowed in acceptance. Then they backed off, stepping down. Meanwhile, hundreds of magical gazes tried to decipher if Kai and Meg were Contestants or a product of the timeline's deviation.
As they stood aside, the notification came like a knock Kai had been waiting for too long.

Kai's mouth opened and remained open for some time.
This was unprecedented, even he knew of this. Mission Grade was a paltry E+, and he was getting 3 Attribute Points just like that? Kai felt a tug on his sleeve and found Meg looking at him meaningfully. This wasn't the time to stare at the notifications, she seemed to imply.
Yes, this was the time to use his privilege.
A hush rippled out from the center of the camp as the moment came for the Khal to present his gift to Daenerys. This was the last opportunity they would get. Once the Khal and the Khaleesi left the camp to consummate their marriage under the blanket of stars, a slaughter would happen here if they hadn't gone by then.
Which Character will have the honor of being your first companion on your fresh path, master? Meg had prodded once.
Kai had no answer then.
Since the moment Meg had told him about Multiverse Interdependency and had given him the list of Characters that suited the path he had chosen for himself, he had been thinking about who would be his first target. It can't be anyone stronger than Kai himself, otherwise, finding such a Character and surviving would be a futile case. It was then he had remembered the profundity of an event that had once made him feel helpless.
The time paradox!
Kai had reflected that using the Blood Prophecy he could pry the secrets of the future, even if he couldn't use it himself for some time. And if he could pry into the secrets of the past as well, then wouldn't he be walking onto a supreme path?
Mastery over Time!
Now that thought had bubbled up a dangerous hunger within him.
It had also pushed him towards a decision, a target, who suited his needs more than anyone else.
Moreover, if he were to make a Side Mission about the Character himself, then he wouldn't need to worry about any Contestant protecting the Character, either.
Chaos, Kai thought. Create a Side Mission to… punch Character Rintaro Okabe.
The Random World of Steins;Gate!

Do you accept the Side Mission?

Time was running out. Daenerys had already sat on her newly gifted silver filly. Soon she would gallop away, followed by the Khal.
Kai felt a pit had replaced his stomach, his heart in his mouth.
He was worried about Mission Credits.
Chaos, he again barked inwardly. Calculate the Mission Credits I would need to compress the remaining time after returning from the Steins;Gate World in 1 hour.

This?! Kai's eyes widened. It would just leave me with 520 MC. I wouldn't be able to afford even a minute over 1 hour.
Meg tugged at his sleeve again, sweat running down his forehead.
The Contestants were closing in on them from all directions. Daenerys' filly had broken into a trot, the Khal following her on his humongous stallion.
It was now or never.
"Yes, damn it! Yes. I accept it," Kai cursed, muttering under his breath, his face becoming ugly.
The sea of Dothraki people erupted with a million voices, and from all around, men and women were rushing at them, danger crawling up on their spines like spiders. Meg had heard his voice, and using the commotion, threw two Origamis out of her Inventory, as they both backed up using their overpowered Agility.
The two Origamis looked exactly like Kai and Meg, holding hands, and smiling nobly as they saw the married couple leaving the camp. As the blue light shone around them, Kai saw the faintest hint of several glints of steel approaching their paper forms.
A hand grabbed the paper Meg's blazing red hair, pulled them, and then her face crumpled like paper.
A woman from the timeline saw this. She was an insignificant storyline Character.
A darker than dark, fouler than Kai's Dementor-form, and incomprehensibly grotesque-shaped rift, opened up like a maw over the head of the Contestant to whom that hand had belonged. The spatial rift engulfed the man whole, and the woman continued her joyous screams as if she had seen nothing.
It was another reason for Kai and Meg to present themselves as ordinary people, as no storyline Character would relate any supernatural phenomenon to them, even if it were to happen in front of their eyes.
The fate that should have belonged to Meg now became someone else's.
It wasn't the first time for Meg to use this kind of treachery, either. It was just that only lower-floor Contestants were naive enough to succumb to such tricks.
A chill ran down Kai's spine seeing that scene. What if she had used such methods against me?
Glad to avoid answering himself, Kai vanished, visiting his 1st Switched World.
