Book 3: Chapter 9: Easiest Woman to Deal With

After Chen Heng left via a spatial jump, he did not head straight back to Fantasy Sea Villas. Instead, he went to a park about five to six kilometers away. Being cautious never led to anything bad.

Chen Heng felt certain Jiang Cheng would investigate the location he mentioned. After all, Jiang Cheng had personal experience and felt deep hatred and pain over such matters.

Back when Chen Heng took the mission to destroy the Secret Scholar Society, Jiang Cheng vied for the mission but failed to clinch it for some reason. At that time, he even became furious.

After Chen Heng spatial jumped to the park, he sat on a bench for a while, waiting for the bloody stench on his body to dissipate, before going to a nearby road to hail a taxi to go back to Fantasy Sea Villas.

By the time Chen Heng arrived home, it was already nine o’clock.

This was already the second day since he returned from the 1st Singularity. It was time to deal with Fafnir and Jeanne d’Arc Alter. He could not drag things out any longer. If he did, they would mutiny soon.

Chen Heng took out two Poké Balls in his room.

He looked at the red-and-white ball containing Jeanne d’Arc Alter, wondering if he should upgrade her Poké Ball and treat her better. After all, she was part of his team now. Would it be too much if he kept using the ordinary red-and-white Poké Ball?

Chen Heng hesitated for a while before deciding to let Jeanne d’Arc Alter out first. He had to deal with this woman first, before anything else. He could discuss the matter of her treatment with her.

“Come out, then!” Chen Heng tossed the Poké Ball in his hand. It opened in midair and spat out Jeanne d’Arc Alter.

“Hey! He Who Knows Fate?” Jeanne d’Arc Alter came out wearing skimpy clothes—a loose black shirt and extremely short shorts. She looked like…a nerdy shut-in. Yes, a nerdy shut-in.

“Jeanne d’Arc, it has been a long time.” Chen Heng forced a smile and greeted Jeanne d’Arc Alter.

“Oh! He Who Knows Fate, it has been a while. Is this Chaldea? Didn’t Fujimaru Ritsuka say you weren’t one of Chaldea’s Servants?”

“About that…something minor happened. I bought this tool, and I did not know that I could only transfer usage rights after buying the tool, not possession. So when I returned to my world, the Poké Ball returned to me.” Now, Chen Heng’s tone lacked confidence.

“Uuuh? That means I have to follow you from now on? Furthermore, you said something about returning to your world? Hey! Something’s not right! You are no longer a Servant! You have flesh and blood?!” Jeanne d’Arc Alter could tell Chen Heng no longer had a Servant body.

Little Miss, aren’t you focusing on the wrong detail?

Jeanne d’Arc Alter did not get as angry as Chen Heng imagined. She was even more concerned about Chen Heng’s fleshly body.

“That’s right. You can only follow me in the future. I did not just gain flesh. I am human in the first place. Alaya asked me for help and made me appear in your world with a Servant body. Are you angry?” Chen Heng asked tentatively.

“Angry? Why should I be angry? Since you can travel to other worlds, can you go back there?” Jeanne d’Arc Alter seemed quite magnanimous.

“I can.” Transmigrating to the Fate/Grand Order’s world was especially simple for Chen Heng. he could spend 100 points to transmigrate using Doctor Roman as the intermediary. He believed Doctor Roman would not reject a trustworthy combat force.

“Then there is no problem. I’m not close to Fujimaru Ritsuka anyway, and you saved my life. Why would I get angry over this minor matter? By the way, do you have any more snacks? I have already finished all the snacks in the ball.” Perhaps that was the most important reason.

“There is. What do you want?” Jeanne d’Arc Alter is very easy to deal with. Snacks? I can get a large box from the store with just one point. That box is one cubic meter large and contains all sorts of snacks.

Chen Heng had bought a snack box previously and had yet to finish the snacks.

“Any snack will do. I haven’t had much before, so it would be good for me to sample different varieties.” Jeanne d’Arc Alter was not picky.

“Snacks are easy to obtain. So, would you prefer to stay in the Poké Ball, or would you prefer to stay with me in the house?” Chen Heng waved the red-and-white Poké Ball in his hand.

“Does your house have Internet? Is there a computer and games?” Jeanne d’Arc Alter’s string of questions stunned Chen Heng. This girl seems to pay note to some rather strange things.

“There is.”

“Then I won’t return to the Poké Ball for now. The Poké Ball has three rooms and one living room. However, I cannot go out, and it feels stifling—and quite lonely.”

Chen Heng had never been into a Poké Ball before, so he did not know what was inside the Poké Ball. However, having company would definitely be better. After all, humans were social creatures. Those that could live alone were rare.

“By the way, I have a younger sister; just letting you know in advance. Come, I’ll bring you to your room.” Chen Heng had already prepared a room for Jeanne d’Arc Alter during the day. Rather, Chen Heng had asked Raven to tidy up a room, not that he did it personally.

After all, he could no longer send Jeanne d’Arc Alter to Chaldea. He had to have a room ready for her if she did not want to stay in the Poké Ball.

Chen Heng led Jeanne d’Arc Alter out of his room to the room to the right.

Right now, Chen Heng’s room was in the middle, Sirin’s was to the left of it, and Jeanne d’Arc Alter’s, to the right.

“This is pretty good. The room is quite nice, and there is a computer.” Jeanne d’Arc Alter nodded in satisfaction as she looked at the room Chen Heng had prepared for her.

“Oh, right, you can have this cell phone. Do you know how to use a cellphone? This is an old one. I’ll bring you to buy a new one tomorrow.” Chen Heng handed the old cell phone he took back from Sirin to Jeanne d’Arc Alter. Before he got her a cell phone she liked, this would have to do for now.

“A cell phone? I know how to use it. The Holy Grail shoved the knowledge into my head. Furthermore, the house in the Poké Ball has many modern electronics. Anyway, let’s put this aside first. Snack! Snack!”

“Alright, alright, alright! Take this cell phone first. I’ll get you some snacks.” Chen Heng took out the large box of snacks, which he had not even finished a tenth of. Then he placed it in a corner of Jeanne d’Arc Alter’s room.

“Oh! There are quite a lot of them!” Jeanne d’Arc Alter rushed to the box’s side, excited to see the gigantic pile of snacks.

“Eat fewer snacks. If you eat too much, it will not be good for…never mind. Pretend I didn’t say anything.” Chen Heng nearly forgot that Jeanne d’Arc Alter was a Servant.

He had been taking care of Sirin so much that he seemed to have mentally become a mother. How pitiful of him. He was only 18 years old.

“You can have as many snacks as you want. Just ask more for more when you’ve finished these.” If he could bribe Jeanne d’Arc Alter with just snacks, she would be the easiest woman to deal with in the world.

A snack box? One point for one, very cheap.
