[Ding-dong! Detecting user completion of the high-difficulty'Survival & Stealth & Declaration of War' quest chain!]
[Calculating 'Joy' rewards...]
Koushi looked at himself in the mirror, then at the gaudy system interface, and his mouth twitched.
(Damn it... Is this humiliating play finally going to yield some reward—)
[Ding-dong! Kahahaha! Congratulations, congratulations! Emissary Candidate! Your spectacular performance made Aha roll around laughing in the Sea of Stars!]
[The courage in the face of despair! The wisdom to stir up trouble! And that absolutely stunning performance outfit, covered in mud and glory! Especially that unique 'Bathroom Survival' scene at the end! It was truly hilarious!]
[Here it is! Here it is! Your Starter Gift Pack Plus Edition has arrived! Please check it out~!]
[-- This Fun Settlement Report --]
[Main Rewards Issued:]
· Path Resonance Energy has recovered from depleted state to 150%! (Energy Saturated!)
· Core Authority Level increased to Lv.2!
· Unlocked Authorities: [Construction Strength Enhancement] | [Understanding Feedback Acceleration] | [Construction Consumption Reduction] | [Limited Energy Material Construction]
· Joy Level increased to Lv.3!
· Unlocked Features: [Joy Mall (Basic)] (Currently Unavailable) | [Achievement System Expansion]
· Item Obtained: [mask of the fool] (See Below)
· [mask of the fool]: A plain-looking, slightly old, white faceless mask. When worn, it can extremely faintly interfere with others' direct perception of your identity (Effect is similar to "Oh, that person looks familiar? But I can't remember who it is"), but cannot change appearance or physique. The effect is extremely poor against familiar people or those with strong willpower. Perhaps you can repair it using Reason Law abilities? (Aha's Message: A small, insignificant help~ Before you fix the transformation bug, I hope this gives you a little more time for fun, instead of being immediately caught~)
[Achievement Rewards Issued:]
· Achievement: [Negotiation Failure Expert · Novice] Achieved!
· Reward:
· [Title: Sophist (Faintly Effective)]: Slightly increases the deceptiveness of your words.
· [Intelligence Fragment: DEM Company Cafeteria Weekly Menu]: A piece of useless intelligence, except that "Wednesday Limited Strawberry Cake" is marked with a thick red circle.
· Achievement: [Named Anti-Entropy · Declaration of War] Achieved!
· Reward:
· [Blueprint Collection: Anti-Entropy Basic Armament Structure (Pseudo)]: Includes detailed construction blueprints for [Titan Mech (Basic Melee Model)], [Raijin Mech (Basic Ranged Model)], [Light Assault Drone], and [Small Honkai Energy Reactor (Anti-Entropy Style)]!
· [Declaration of War Generator (Trial Version)]: Input keywords to automatically generate and have the designated person read out a lofty declaration of war document.
· Achievement: [The Dancer Who Plucked Teeth from a Tiger's Mouth] Achieved!

· [Unsent Strawberry Cake Voucher]: A strawberry cake voucher from a cake shop, written with Ellen's name, but the date is clearly "expired."
· Achievement: [Oddity in the Muck] Achieved!
· Reward:
· [Special Skin (Forced Equip): Germaphobe's Grievance]: Until the transformation bug is fixed, all constructed objects will inherently possess a "sparkling new" optical effect. (Including you~)
· [Potent Stain Removal Bubble Gun]: Can shoot powerful stain removal bubbles, instantly cleaning any dirt from the surface of non-living objects.
[Special Note Regarding Your Current Form (System Prompt):]
[Beep! Detecting user current state anomaly.]
[Anomaly Diagnosis: Due to prolonged exposure to extremely filthy environments while in the Elf Form, and attempting to forcibly maintain the form and then forcibly revert to Human Form while energy was low, a data conflict occurred during synchronization between the Spirit Lord Core and the User Vital Sign Recorder (i.e., your Human Form template).]
[Current Status: Transformation Function Temporarily Locked (Only for canceling transformation).]
[Estimated Fix Time: Unknown. (This depends on the speed at which the Spirit Lord Core absorbs ambient energy, and whether you can provide more 'Joy' as a repair catalyst~)]
[Friendly Reminder: In the meantime, please enjoy your Elf life! Perhaps you'll discover a new world! Ka ka ka~!]
Koushi looked at the long list of rewards and that final, despair-inducing "Friendly Reminder." The expression on his face went from initial anticipation to subtle discomfort, finally transforming into gray despair.
(The energy is full... the authority has increased... but this repair condition... provide more Joy?! This is forcing me to continue courting death?!)
(So until I generate enough 'Joy' using this appearance... I have to show myself to people looking like this?!)
He looked at the blue-haired, blue-eyed, stunningly proportioned beautiful girl in the mirror and let out a silent wail.
(Koushi Hōoin's daily life... has only just begun today... and it is destined to be total chaos!!!)
