Chapter 805: Post Battle Supper

The entire defensive operation was a tremendous success thanks to the teamwork of everyone…well perhaps with the exception for Derpy as usual.

As he was meant to be used for the last effort emergency backup plan, the Shadow Dagen had to be kept hidden and therefore did not get to do much. Nevertheless, it wasn’t as if Derpy got the short end of the stick.

He got an unexpected snack in the form of the flying turtle, indirectly helped bring a clay Pandajilla to real life and also enjoyed the opportunity to play around with his friend Wolte making him more than satisfied despite the lack of his appearance.

Jin who had escaped the wrath of his Pandawans returned to his Dungeon Maker instance and officially sent a message that the Pandapolis Defence Raid was completed.

“A big thank you to all the fellow Pandarens who have taken part in this raid. In appreciation for your participation up until the end, I am giving everyone additional points to the ladder prizes you’ve obtained. Each one of you will be able to reach the next tier of rewards!”

That message alone quickly received likes in the Pandamonium Forum and gave cheers to the shop owner’s generosity. While some requested for even more free stuff, the rest shared their thoughts for the Dungeon Raid.

Many claimed it felt a bit too real for them, but the experience was an eye-opener. They could feel the intensity of the battles and the death from both the demons and their own fellow cultivators left a great impact on their minds. However, many did realise that the recovery process during their stay in the Luxury Recovery Instance helped them come to terms with the incidents and experiences.

In turn, a number of new customers were able to reach their next cultivation grade rather easily with the understanding and appreciation for life and death as their breakthrough.

While breakthroughs were common enough occurrences in dungeon supplier stores, most of the Pandarens knew how difficult it was to get it done in one particular setting. Many had tried dungeon runs in other supplier stores for days, yet none could have provided such a breakthrough as quickly as Jin’s Dungeons and Pandas.

At the same time, many of the customers also queried what kind of place they had been protecting. There was not much of a background of the city they protected compared to other stories where the dungeon instances were filled with hidden lore.

Even though a number of Pandarens managed to catch a glimpse of it due to the mass teleportation incident, the bulk of his customers were clueless. Also, it was not possible for the Pandarens could not have a closer look when their life depended on their fighting skills against the horde of demons rampaging around.

That was when Jin had written as a reply post that the raid was a prequel to the opening of a brand new Major ‘Service’ Instance. More information would be given to the cultivators in due time, and Jin was looking at the chance of possibly creating the very first “medal to real cash” conversion method in the world.

That reply post alone caused a lot of ruckuses even though it was in the middle of the night for most of his entire customer base.

“Am I revealing a little too much or too fast?” Jin wondered to himself, and that was when Lynn and Qiu Yue came in together to the Dungeon Maker to rest. While it was technically Jin’s office, the Sub System Users had learned how to create furniture out of thin air and used them as they pleased before removing them when they were about to leave.

“What are you planning to reveal?” Qiu Yue asked as she managed to catch his self-talk.

“Oh, I was telling the forum users that I might implement a “medal to real” cash conversion. Is that really such a big thing? I recall seeing something like that in Europe… or at least in the United States.” Jin answered, and while Qiu Yue tried to search for such a thing on the internet, Lynn took out an after battle meal for Jin to replenish.

“You should take some proper rest after that fight. I’ve seen the stream… I was really worried for you, you know.” Lynn admitted as Jin left his ‘office’ desk and approached the small table where the three sat together to enjoy the supper.

“Speaking about that battle. How dare you?!” Qiu Yue had one hand scrolling through the searches while another pulled Jin’s ear.

“Ya, how dare you to fight alone?!” Lynn pulled the other ear as a continuation of Qiu Yue’s joke, thinking that her anger resulted from Jin not calling on his two Sub System users to assist him in the fight.

“Actually… Lynn, I think I was pulling his ear for a different reason than that.” Qiu Yue admitted and later reconsidered by pulling his ear harder.

“But since you added that, how dare you?!”

“Ow ow ow! Okay! I sincerely apologise to both of you. I’ve clearly overestimated myself, and when it came time for the fight, my thoughts were occupied with fending him off. But I do think I know why Qiu Yue was so angry.” Jin admitted his wrongdoing as he pulled the System Driver out of his storage watch and placed it for Lynn to see.

“Oh my god…it is true. You are literally a Masked Rider….hmm, but we cannot use that in public. Imagine Japan representatives coming down to sue you for copyrighting them.” Qiu Yue talked about the superheroes children show that they had watched when they were younger.

“Maybe that is why the System named it after itself. System Rider.” Jin said as he savoured Lynn’s fried white noodles. “Gosh, Lynn. I swear I would never get sick eating this if you gave it to me every day.”

“That would be troublesome. You might not get sick of eating them, but I would get sick of cooking the same thing for you every day. Hehe. Thanks, Jin!” Lynn appreciated the praise as she took a bite as well and already started forming self-critiques in her mind.

“Hey, System, do you think I can be a System Rider too?” Qiu Yue asked, and the System affirmed to it.

“There is currently only one driver, and it requires Jin’s Astral Form ability to fully utilise the System Driver. System will look into making secondary drivers that could be compatible with the Sub System Users.”

“Aww yes!” Qiu Yue jumped up and down with glee and told Jin to watch out.

“Original Bellator Kraft has also voiced his interest though System is wary of the powers he could possess.”

“You’re scared he will overpower you too much, eh?” Jin gave a casual comment, and the System sent an empty cupboard box falling to hit its user’s head. “Ouch! What is that for?! I am eating!”

“Even though I may feel like the secondary character here, there will definitely be a battle where I will shine above you!” Qiu Yue slapped Jin’s back as he resumed eating his noodles again, causing him to choke slightly.

“Qiu Yue!” Lynn cautioned her with a stern voice, and she apologised as the trio dug in for the supper while giving Lynn a summary of their experiences from the battlefield.
