By this point in the early morning, there weren't many girls still awake.
But this did not include Kasumigaoka Utaha.
After all, she had always been the type to stay up late to create, and then catch up on sleep at school during the day.
As for the teachers?
I'm first in the entire school, with a deviation score of over 85. I study at Toyogasaki because it's close to home and the management isn't strict.
If I wanted to get into the University of Tokyo, I would have long since gone to one of those other famous high schools with higher admission rates. How would it ever be Toyogasaki's turn?
One could say that it wasn't her who had to watch the teachers' expressions, but rather the teachers who were counting on her to be the model produced by Toyogasaki's liberal school culture.
It was just sleeping in class. Those teachers even had to worry about what to do if the weather was too hot or too cold and she couldn't sleep soundly.
And so, Kasumigaoka Utaha was also the first to notice the diary's update.
"Updating the diary in the middle of the night... Could it be that something has changed on the mysterious person's side?" Kasumigaoka Utaha thought to herself.
Tonight, because of the unlocking of the level three permissions and a large pile of messy commissions, the diary chat group was quite lively.
The commissions the diary arranged for each person were different. There were even people in the group comparing who had received the most absurd commission.
Anyway, the highest-level commission at present was the A+ level shrine investigation commission received by Shinomiya Kaguya.
However, besides that, there was another A+ level commission that had been received by the gaming expert and troll, Hinami Aoi.
A+ level commission.
No matter the game, no matter the means.
Find [Blank], and completely defeat [Blank] in a game.
If it were just this one commission presented, it would actually just give people a slightly exaggerated feeling.
But when placed together with Shinomiya Kaguya's A+ level commission, which required facing at least a first-grade vengeful spirit, it inexplicably gave people a sense of pressure.
So the difficulty of defeating that so-called [Blank] in a game was at least equivalent to them going up against a first-grade vengeful spirit?
Too absurd!
Umaru even directly proposed in the group that they should try to find an invincible cheat or just directly ask the game officials to change the data.
Even if the means were a little insidious, the reward for an A+ level commission was simply too tempting.
A blank D-rank commission and below required accumulating for many days to obtain 1 Reading Point.
D-rank was 1 point per commission.
C-rank was 2 to 10 points per commission.
B-rank went up to 30, and A-rank went up to 100.
And this A+ level commission from Hinami Aoi started at 100 Reading Points, plus two random lottery draws.
As for whether there were even higher commissions, that was not something the girls could know for now.
Although the mysterious person often complained in his diary that the rewards for writing were not good, just by writing in the diary every day, he could draw a reward. This made the girls very envious.
Especially after knowing that only by completing an A-rank or above commission did one have the qualification to draw a lottery, they were even more furious at the mysterious person for acting humble after getting an advantage.
However, Hinami Aoi still had her pride. Even in the face of the reward for an A+ level commission, she was not swayed and insisted on trying to complete this commission with her own strength.
Of course, ever since she had lost to the equally surprisingly strong Umaru in the arcade before, she also knew that her current gaming level was definitely even further from [Blank].
Her current idea was to find a way to find out what game [Blank] was playing now, and then spend money to find a group of professional players and regular players to go and besiege them in the game. As long as she could catch a single mistake from [Blank], she would have a chance to complete this commission.
To this idea of hers, the girls in the chat group still maintained a wait-and-see attitude.
After all, in the entire chat group, only Hinami Aoi had ever fought against [Blank]. The other gaming experts, like Umaru and Kuroneko, had at most only heard some rumors online.
Their impression of [Blank] was actually only the few sentences the mysterious person had mentioned.
[Blank]'s strength crushed this era, they had never been defeated, and in the end, they were even pulled to another world by the god of games of another world.
Just the point of being involved with the god of another world was already enough to make people look up to them.
In comparison, Kasumigaoka Utaha's commissions seemed particularly plain.
Commission one: Make Koisuru Metronome one of the top ten best-selling light novels of the season.
Commission two: Make Sawamura Eriri a loser heroine again, or let her win in the end and give a victory speech.
Commission three: Make Miyauchi Hikage's talent work for her.
The first commission was a bit difficult, but if the follow-up promotion could keep up, there was a chance.
The second commission seemed like a freebie.
No matter how Eriri's ending turned out, it seemed she could still get Reading Value.
However, Kasumigaoka Utaha had seriously read the plots the mysterious person had posted, and felt that no matter what, the possibility of that girl, Eriri, giving a victory speech was ridiculously low.
If she really wanted to complete this commission quickly, then it would be more efficient to just let Eriri become a loser heroine directly.
As for the third one…
Kasumigaoka Utaha was a little confused.
Is the diary trying to stir up trouble?
Isn't this just trying to provoke infighting among us girls who have the diary?
After all, Miyauchi Hikage was already Shiina Mashiro's assistant. Although at present it didn't seem like there was anything special about their relationship, who knew what would happen later.
If she were to get involved again, wouldn't that be stealing someone's love?
It was also because this commission was a bit controversial that Kasumigaoka Utaha had not posted this commission in the group, but had just made some more deductions in her heart.
It seemed she still had to be careful if there were any traps behind the commissions given by this diary.
"Maybe these commissions were all designed by that mysterious person guy himself, just to see me and the other girls make a fool of ourselves," Kasumigaoka Utaha subconsciously shifted the blame to the mysterious person.
In any case, that mysterious person had never been willing to say more about himself in the diary, and was always secretive about everything he did.
Perhaps that guy just wanted to use this method to create contradictions between them, and then watch the fire from the other side of the river!
Thinking this, she continued to view the diary that the mysterious person had updated tonight with a scrutinizing attitude.
"The diary has started to be distributed again... So is the distribution on a monthly cycle?"
The mysterious person said that the diary he's distributing seems to be different from the diary in their hands. So what is the difference between those new diaries and the diary they have now?
Seeing that the mysterious person was already not satisfied with getting one reward a day and wanted to get two rewards at the same time, Kasumigaoka Utaha couldn't help but grit her teeth and continue to read.
And after that, the mysterious person began to analyze the commissions they had unlocked.
As expected, those commissions have something to do with this guy.
[One of the two A+ level commissions is to defeat [Blank]? That's not strange. Don't be fooled by the fact that [Blank] seems to be just an ordinary pair of siblings. In fact, there's not much difference between them and having superpowers.
The older brother is good at reading psychology to find loopholes, and his predictions about people's hearts are almost never wrong.
The younger sister has computational ability comparable to a supercomputer, and her hacking skills are also among the top in this world.
To try to defeat them with brute force methods like cheating or directly changing the data will only be counterproductive, and you might even have your own whereabouts found by them directly.
For an ordinary person, it is indeed a bit too difficult to defeat them.
However, although they have indeed never failed in this world, I remember that after they transmigrated to another world, they did lose a few times for various reasons.
Of course, let's not talk about the other world for now. Just in this world, the way to defeat [Blank] is naturally to separate them.
If you can find them offline and separate them, you still have a chance to defeat them.
However, I'm not sure if this can complete the commission. After all, according to their own words, only when the two of them are together can they be called [Blank].
Anyway, if you still want to try, I have checked the information of [Blank] before and confirmed that they should not have been pulled to another world yet. If you want to challenge and take revenge, you do have a chance.
I'm still looking forward to one of you really being able to defeat [Blank]. When that time comes, I will definitely run over to watch.
"As expected, he's instigating people to challenge that [Blank], and he's using himself coming over to watch as bait again." But after this month of back-and-forth, the girls who had the diary had long since confirmed that the mysterious person most likely had obtained the ability to disguise or change his appearance in some lottery draw.
A small probability was that he had obtained some kind of invisibility or long-range observation ability, which was why he could be so clear about their affairs.
Even if he really appeared offline, they probably still wouldn't be able to find his whereabouts.
And according to the mysterious person's description, that pair of [Blank] siblings was basically invincible in the field of gaming. Unless one had stronger hacking skills than them, or found them offline and competed in a game where luck was far greater than skill, only then would there be a chance to defeat them.
So the question was.
How to find them when one of them is a hacker genius and has not revealed any identity or address information?
In comparison, the information contained behind the A+ commission that Shinomiya Kaguya had received was more attractive to her.
[As for the commission for the Sankoku Shrine, it's quite normal for this to be listed as A+. After all, the mountain god enshrined there does have some real strength. Dealing with ordinary ghosts is very easy. It can be said to be the most powerful enemy that has appeared in Miko's story, and can also be considered her main plotline.
But seriously speaking, although that mountain god is powerful, as a spirit bound to the land of the shrine, it cannot leave a place too far from it, and it seems to be just an existence that guards a seal.
The reason it has been attracting others to the shrine, judging from the later plot, should be that it needs to obtain the souls of others through this method to continue to maintain the existence of the shrine and the seal.
Of course, it will not directly take a person's soul. It will usually give a person a contract.
When the other party is in danger, it will help them a few times. After the contract is completed, it will then take their soul as agreed. It's just that this contract is a forced sale. It insists on signing it with you, and you have no room for resistance or bargaining.
Just like the teacher of the Godly Mother of Shitamachi back then, in order to save her former disciple, she had chosen to voluntarily offer her own soul and become the shrine's miko, and has been bound by that mountain god until now.
And in this chapter of the plot, Miko, in the end, with the joint help of the Godly Mother of Shitamachi and her former disciple, breaks the shrine's seal and makes the mountain god completely dissipate.
However, after the shrine's seal was broken, what kind of guy crawled out from behind, the manga had not yet updated to this point before I transmigrated. It should be a more powerful vengeful spirit or youkai.
I wonder if this vengeful spirit can reach special grade.
If this vengeful spirit is also counted in this A+ commission, then this commission is indeed quite valuable.
However, this commission only asks you to investigate the truth of the shrine. It is estimated that it just wants you to find out who the vengeful spirit sealed under that shrine is, and does not require you to solve it.
It's a pity that I really don't know its identity, otherwise I would really want to give you, Kaguya, two lottery chances.
In any case, since that seal has not yet been cleaned up by the big shots of the hidden world in this hodgepodge world, then it should be that compared to the mountain god who occasionally extracts the souls of others, the existence that is sealed is more of a threat, which is why they have been letting that shrine exist.
After all, in Japan alone, nearly ten thousand people die every year due to these supernatural events. In comparison, this shrine might only need one soul every few years. This price is completely affordable for them.
By the way, with the style of the Jujutsu world, if Miko really signed a contract with the mountain god according to the original story and finally broke the shrine's seal in order to save her own life, if that unsealed existence were to do something, she would most likely be sentenced to death by those guys from the Jujutsu world.
But thinking about it carefully, this might actually be a good thing for Miko.
As everyone knows, when the higher-ups of the Jujutsu world want to execute someone, they can't succeed.
After all, the favorite thing for that so-called strongest Jujutsu Sorcerer to do is to take in those who have been sentenced to death by the Jujutsu higher-ups as his own disciples.
And Yotsuya Miko, who has the highest level of Yin-Yang Eyes, should also be able to get proper guidance from him.
Although after he was dismembered by Ryomen Sukuna's off-screen space cleave, not a single one of his disciples had mourned his death, and he was even blamed by his own disciples after he died. (laughs)]
Looking at the mysterious person's description in the diary, Kasumigaoka Utaha couldn't help but let out a long breath.
Although she had had a premonition about the danger level of Sankoku Shrine, after the mysterious person's explanation, her understanding of the danger level of the hidden world had increased by another level.
Because this shrine's appetite is small, and it also suppresses some powerful existence, so they have just been letting it exist?
