Night fell. The Tokyo Skytree shimmered with lights. Standing atop it, one could overlook all of Tokyo and enjoy the city's nightscape.
Ian, having just finished their outing, pulled Erii and took off directly, flying towards the summit of the Tokyo Skytree.
Erii, soaring through the air, excitedly waved her small hands. The wind whistled past her ears. She had never experienced this feeling of free flight.
At this moment, she felt as if she had broken free from all constraints, transforming into a carefree little bird.
"To celebrate Erii joining us, I've prepared a special welcome ceremony for you today!" Ian's voice sounded beside Erii's ear.
Once the two stabilized atop the Tokyo Skytree, Ian snapped his fingers. Immediately, several dots of fire lit up in the distance. They shot towards the sky, and then a giant star chart appeared.
These were the high-power, new-model fireworks that Ian's Avatar had customized and ordered in advance from Super Seminary. The fireworks were now being ignited sequentially according to a predetermined sequence.
The fireworks bloomed in the night sky, tearing open Tokyo's curtain of night.
Erii's eyes were wide, her small mouth slightly open, completely stunned by the beautiful fireworks. She yelped excitedly and vigorously waved her small hands.
The fireworks display lasted for a long time. Finally, the last firework slowly ascended, paused briefly at the apex, then exploded suddenly. Countless sparks slowly blossomed in the air, ultimately forming a huge image of Erii that lingered for a long time before dissipating.
On the streets below, people stopped walking, looking up at the sky, admiring the rare fireworks display. Some even took out cameras, ready to record the beautiful moment.
The fireworks display was spectacular, enhanced by a lot of black technology, but this also led to extremely loud sounds. Several elderly people thought someone had dropped a nuclear bomb on their heads again. A few fainted on the spot and were rushed to the hospital by their families.
Erii turned around, looking at Ian, her large eyes shimmering with tears. She quickly pulled out her small notebook and wrote, "Thank you, sama, the fireworks were beautiful."
The last two days had been like a dream for Erii. She had experienced many things she had never experienced before.
After leaving Shaoqi Yabashi, Ian first took her to a shopping mall and let her choose many beautiful new clothes. Whenever Erii lingered in front of an outfit, Ian would buy it for her.
Later, Erii saw the plush toys in the hands of a child nearby, and her eyes showed her fondness for them.
Ian then took her to a claw machine and secretly gave Erii two bottles of Luck Potion.
Erii immediately seemed to have divine assistance. She was practically 100% successful at the claw machine, and soon the bag beside her was filled with a huge pile of dolls, attracting envious glances from the surrounding children.
While shopping, Erii's stomach rumbled. She shyly tugged at Ian's sleeve, then looked curiously at a roadside stall.
Ian smiled and took her to a street vendor, ordering two servings of takoyaki and one serving of eel sushi.
Erii had never eaten in such a place before. Previously, she had always gone to specialized restaurants whenever she went out. Now, her eyes were filled with curiosity and anticipation.
When the piping hot takoyaki entered her mouth, Erii's eyes instantly brightened. Although it wasn't the most delicious food she had ever eaten, it was still very tasty, and the texture was unique.
Afterward, Ian also took Erii to visit her favorite Figure Shopping Mall. She was dazzled by all sorts of familiar toys and merchandise.
While they were out, they happened upon a Comic Convention. Erii saw many cosplayers dressed in Miko outfits and excitedly changed into her original Miko clothes, wanting to join in.
Because of her strikingly beautiful appearance, she was quickly surrounded by the Miko cosplayers for photos. She happily cooperated, striking various poses, enjoying this unprecedented experience.
She had been very happy these past few days, experiencing many firsts in her life: her first time going to the cinema to watch a movie, her first time eating from a street stall, her first time seeing a Comic Convention, her first time visiting a park, her first time fishing... Although these were just ordinary people's daily lives, they were all things Erii had never experienced.
Ian looked at the smile radiating on Erii's face and felt a sense of satisfaction. He wanted Erii to fully recover all the happiness she had missed in the past, bit by bit, and let her feel the beauty of this world.
Standing on the Tokyo Skytree, Erii slowly leaned against Ian and fell into a deep sleep, her eyelashes fluttering slightly, like an exhausted kitten, tranquil and endearing.
Although he had removed the debuff of Dragon Blood erosion for her upon their first meeting, and added High-Grade Healing Potions to her drinking water, her body was still too frail.
These past few days, taking her to experience so many new things had kept her too excited to sleep. Now, she finally couldn't hold on any longer and just passed out.
But there was no need to worry. Ian had already prepared a complete set of physical modification plans for her.
He then gently picked Erii up. With a thought, he instantly returned to Minecraft.
"I'm handing her over to you all." Ian gently placed Erii into a specialized Reinforcement Chamber. The chamber was filled with a Dragon Blood Enhancement Fluid jointly prepared by Miss Witch, the Gold Dragon King, the Alchemist Villager, and the Array Master. The pale gold fluid filled the entire Reinforcement Chamber, emanating boundless vitality and energy.
Ian then loaded the Gold Dragon King Enhancement Gene and the Silver River Power Undefeated Body Gene into Erii's body.
As the genes were injected, a dazzling golden light burst forth from Erii's body, and surging life force coursed through her. The hidden injuries left by the Dragon Blood erosion were rapidly healing, and her congenital physical deficiencies were quickly rectified.
The Gold Dragon King's powerful genes worked perfectly with the Dragon Blood Enhancement Fluid, quickly suppressing and then devouring the chaotic, tyrannical White King Bloodline within her.
Finally, the enhancement drew to a close. The current Erii was no longer the frail Little Witch who needed bone marrow extraction every time she used a Word of Power.
Now, she could not only speak normally, but her physical constitution was also beyond imagination. She could now easily fight a Subspecies, and could even rival some weaker Dragon Kings.
The devoured White King Bloodline power perfectly fused with the Gold Dragon King Bloodline, also boosting her spiritual power. She could now fully unleash the enhanced Word of Power, "Judgment," without worrying about the risk of losing control or any side effects.
"The Erii Modification Project is a complete success!"
In another gloomy basement, two figures tied with ropes and gagged lay on the ground.
It was the unlucky brothers, Genzhi Sheng and Genzhi Nu. To ensure they wouldn't starve to death, Ian's Avatar thoughtfully placed a few Body Stone nearby.
In contrast, Sakurai Komura and Yabuki Sakura were treated much better. They were placed in a separate compartment, with beds, a TV, and plenty of snacks.
Although they were very worried about Genzhi Sheng and the others, they could only look out through the small, unopenable wooden window.
Now, they could only hope that someone would discover their disappearance and come to rescue them.
"I wonder how Genzhi Sheng-dono is doing right now..." Yabuki Sakura said, clutching a bag of potato chips, her voice full of worry.
"I wonder how Kazama-dono is doing right now..." Sakurai Komura worried about Genzhi Nu while eating a doughnut.
