Is It Too Late to Leave the Chat Group?

Book 1: Chapter 6: Turns out I’m Not the Main Character

Chen Heng placed Sirin on his bed.

After covering her with a thin blanket, he noticed another problem.

He Who Knows Fate: Can anyone help me buy children’s clothes? I need everything, including undergarments. It does not seem appropriate for me to buy them.

Magus of Flowers: @Efreet, it’s your time to shine.

Efreet: Why did you ping me?

Efreet: Oh! To buy clothes? Why me?

Magus of Flowers: You are about the same age as her.Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.𝘤𝑜𝓂 for the best novel reading experience

Efreet: How did you know?

Queen of Ice and Snow: Don’t underestimate the judgment of someone who can peep on the entire world.

Magus of Flowers: Saying that I peep on the entire world is too much. I have lived a long time and know a lot, so I understand some basic psychology and profiling.

He Who Knows Fate: @Efreet, can I leave this to you? I will pay with points. Do buy prettier clothes. It’s not appropriate for me to buy these things. Although I do have female friends, I have no way of explaining the origins of this child.

17-Year-Old Youkai Sage: You are being quite generous. What’s wrong? You got tempted? Little Sirin is quite cute. Getting tempted is normal.

He Who Knows Fate: She is just a child, around ten years old. Although she is quite pretty, how could I be tempted?

17-Year-Old Youkai Sage: Isn’t there a kind of male organism that sexually targets underaged females? Furthermore, you are being so generous. It is hard not to suspect you.

He Who Knows Fate: I did earn 2,000 points from her without doing much, after all. Since I earned it so easily, it doesn’t feel right not to treat her well. Furthermore, System 10086 told me to take good care of her, so I decided to spend 1,000 points on her.

17-Year-Old Youkai Sage: …Alright. I have nothing to say. You are a good person. We are not compatible with each other.

He Who Knows Fate: ??? That came out of nowhere. It caught me off-guard.

Umaru-chan: Truly a good person, handing over half the points. Just think of how many games I can buy with 1,000 points.

Iron Fist Teacher: Stop thinking about having windfalls. Just slowly earn points by checking in. Also, stop thinking about games all day. Studying is the most important thing for a student.

Umaru-chan: What about He Who Knows Fate? 12,000 points just fell into his lap.

Iron Fist Teacher: Cough! Cough! That’s a special situation.

Umaru-chan: @He Who Knows Fate, do you still want Sirin’s information?

He Who Knows Fate: Sure, thank you. I’ll send you a red packet when I get the mission rewards.

Umaru-chan: (〃'▽'〃)

17-Year-Old Youkai Sage: That is the value of intel.

Magus of Flowers: Speaking of which, I saw my game in the games section. It seems to be called Fate/Grand Order. @Queen of Ice and Snow seems to be in there too. However, this game does not seem to be fully updated yet.

Iron Fist Teacher: Are you all that free?

17-Year-Old Youkai Sage: Ah! Right! I took a look before. I simply searched for my name in the games section, and I found the relevant game. It is quite convenient. I did not look up other games after that.

17-Year-Old Youkai Sage: Of course, not everyone can find a game with themselves in it. Not all the information can be found through games.

Iron Fist Teacher: Why do I not see a games section?

Umaru-chan: It is a subsection of the cultural section in the Dimension Administrators Association’s store. Games are also a part of culture, so there’s no problem there.

Efreet: It is not just games. There are comics too. Some of our information is in comics. Comics are also a subsection of culture.

Umaru-chan: Indeed. I found the comic with me in it. It is a slice of life.

He Who Knows Fate: Perhaps I should take a look.

Efreet: @He Who Knows Fate, tell me Sirin’s height and three sizes. I need those for buying clothes.

He Who Knows Fate: Ah? Three sizes? This…

Efreet: Guys can buy suitable clothes with just the height. However, girls…

He Who Knows Fate: @Umaru-chan, are the three sizes in the information you sent?

Umaru-chan: Ah? Yes! Let me see. System 10086 said Sirin would die soon, so we can take the sizes from her final moments. Height: 155 cm, weight: 42 kg, three sizes: 72-53-75. I feel that this information from the comics and games is quite invasive. My data might be in the character profile too.

He Who Knows Fate: Thank you. You have been a great help.

17-Year-Old Youkai Sage: Is Sirin awake already?

He Who Knows Fate: Thanks to you, she fainted right after she woke up, because she saw the gap.

17-Year-Old Youkai Sage: …What nonsense! My gap is very cute.

Iron Fist Teacher: Perhaps your sense of beauty is different from others. I saw the picture of the gap earlier. I just want to say, she is still a child.

Efreet: Her sizes are similar to mine. Damn it! She is slightly taller. I already sent my subordinates to purchase the clothes. I can even claim these expenses! How excellent of me!

[Author Note: Itsuka Kotori: Height: 145 cm, current weight: 41.2 kg, three sizes: 72-53-74.]

[TL Note: Itsuka Kotori, nicknamed Efreet, is one of the main female characters from Date A Live. Here is a link to her profile: /wiki/Kotori_Itsuka. Prior to translating the chat group members’ names, I did some research and found the identities of the various members to ensure that I followed the official translations of any known nicknames or names in the game/novel/comics. However, I will reveal them only when the novel does so. Nevertheless, if you search the nicknames online, they are not too difficult to figure out.]

He Who Knows Fate: Alright. Since this matter is settled, I will go tidy up a room for Sirin.

I can’t let Sirin keep sleeping on my bed, right? Of all the people to inconvenience, I can’t inconvenience myself. My bed is the most comfortable.

While preparing a room for Sirin, Chen Heng redeemed the 12,000 points reward for the mission. Then, he took time to search for his name in the store’s games section. Ah! Good! Nothing. Since there are no games about me, it should be a comic. Oh, there’s still none? The name Chen Heng does appear in comics, but they are not me.

Could it be a novel? Chen Heng shifted his attention to the novels section, which was beside the comics section. After tapping on it, he searched for “Chen Heng.” Suddenly, a large number of novels appeared in the search results, all of them containing his name. Then, he added another search term: Mo Qingtong.

There it is. Only one book remains. It’s called…Re:Life Chat Group? Excellent. Simple and plain. The meaning is clear. Where’s Customer Service? I have a report to make. There’s a re:lifer here!

Just a joke. No matter what, I must read the contents before making a report. Speaking of which, I used the Precognition to see the future. Does that count as re:living? The recruitment of the Re:Life Chat Group seems quite unreliable.

When Chen Heng read the introduction, he knew that he had overthought. It turned out that it was not him who re:lived. Instead, it was his childhood sweetheart: Mo Qingtong. So…I’m not the main character?

Very good. Woman, you have piqued my interest.

Chen Heng placed blankets on the bed and looked at the neat room. Then, he heaved a sigh of relief. It had been a long time since anyone had stayed here, which made tidying it up somewhat troublesome. Speaking of which, Chen Heng stayed in a three-story villa. Only his room and his parents’ room were consistently cleaned. As for the other rooms, there was no point in mentioning them. He stayed in this villa alone. The maid from the neighboring house—Mo Qingtong’s house—would occasionally come over to help clean the place. However, she would not touch the rooms that no one stayed in, as it would be pointless. Chen Heng stayed on the second floor, so he arranged for Sirin to stay in a room beside his.

Please note that Future Sight has been changed to Precognition, the change took place shortly after the release of Chapter 3.
