Chapter 31 - A Teleportation Range of Ten Light-Years—And You’re Calling That Only?

Staring at the giant Buddha statue on screen,

Countless viewers felt their scalps tingle.

It was just a scene transition…

And yet it had spanned over a thousand kilometers!

But—

That still wasn't the end!

Standing beneath the Buddha's feet, Yuuto Kagami opened the Anywhere Door once more and stepped inside.

The screen briefly went black.

And when it lit up again, it showed the colossal Dragon Wall, stretching across mountain ridges—instantly drawing gasps from the viewers!

Then, in just a few short minutes,

Over a dozen famous landmarks across the Nine Provinces appeared one after another.

Even desolate deserts, vast grasslands, and snowy wilderness flashed by!

Each familiar scene passed through the livestream like a slide show.

It felt like a dream—

No, not even dreams could transition through this many locations so seamlessly!

Finally, when Yuuto Kagami stepped through the Anywhere Door one last time—

A giant female statue came into view, and the entire stream exploded with excitement!

:No freaking way!

:If I'm not mistaken, that's the Statue of Liberty in the Lighthouse Country, right?!

:Holy crap! This Anywhere Door is next level!

:So this is the Anywhere Door—instantly teleporting from the Nine Provinces to the Lighthouse Country?!

:Sheesh, I gotta say, Bro Fan standing on the statue like that looks kinda badass.

Standing atop the Statue of Liberty,

Yuuto Kagami let everyone take in the view before returning to his original location.

"Everyone,"

"That concludes the demonstration of the Anywhere Door's abilities."

As countless viewers struggled to calm down, Yuuto Kagami continued:

"However, using the Anywhere Door isn't completely without limitations."

"For example, without a map or knowledge of the destination, it can't be used to reach that place."

"Also, the door does have a maximum teleportation range."

:I knew it. No way something this OP would be limitless.

:Needing a map makes sense. Gotta know where you're going.

:Distance limit? Bro, you just hopped over to the States like it was nothing—that's already beyond reason!

:So… what exactly is the max distance? Is the Lighthouse Country the farthest it can go?

:Didn't Bro Fan say earlier that the Anywhere Door could reach anywhere in the world? I bet it covers the whole planet—Blue Star-level range!

Just as the chat settled into this assumption, curious but reassured—

Yuuto Kagami casually added:

"The Anywhere Door can only teleport within ten light-years."

"If the destination is more than ten light-years away, it simply won't work."

The stream went silent.

Then—pandemonium.

:...

:Wait. Only ten light-years?!

:Bro, the entire solar system is barely over one light-year across! You're telling me this door can teleport anywhere within the solar system?!

:Damn it, I actually believed Bro Fan when he said it was limited—turns out I'm the idiot!

:You're telling me ten light-years counts as a limitation?! Bro, I don't have enough vocabulary for this. Just—WTF!!

:Ten light-years… What is this door? Is it some kind of supernatural artifact? Or is it actually tech? But if it's tech, it's way too advanced!

Reading this comment, Yuuto Kagami's eyes lit up.

"Great question!"

"Hard to believe, I know—but the Anywhere Door is a technological creation."

:WHAT? It's tech?!

:You're kidding, right? What kind of tech could possibly make something like that?!

:A portable, doorframe-sized device, capable of teleporting up to ten light-years away, powered by seemingly infinite energy—and you're telling me it's man-made?!

Yuuto Kagami chuckled.

"In the world of Doraemon, there exists a future era—the 23rd century."

"And the technology of the 23rd century has reached unimaginable levels!"

"Flying headbands like bamboo-copters, time machines for casually traveling to the past or future, phone booths that can change the world just by calling, flashlights that enlarge or shrink objects..."

"Even tools that violate basic laws of physics and causality—they all exist!"

The moment Yuuto Kagami finished this explanation,

The number of chat comments exploded!

:A time machine?! No way—I thought time travel was physically impossible!

:You can shrink and enlarge objects at will? Where's the law of conservation of mass?! You sitting on it or what?!

:A phone booth that alters reality itself?! What kind of cheat-level item is that?! That's literally god-tier!

:Unbelievable. The world of Doraemon is terrifying beyond words!

Right now,

The livestream chat was filled with nothing but awe and existential dread.

Items that would normally only exist in sci-fi dreams or divine myths—

Actually existed in a world called Doraemon.

But Yuuto Kagami didn't seem surprised at all.

In fact—

He had actually held back during the explanation.

If the viewers ever found out…

That these causality-defying, rule-breaking items were just toys used by a childcare robot for the sake of raising a kid…

Well, someone in the chat would probably have a mental breakdown right then and there.

Seeing that the audience couldn't calm down anytime soon,

Yuuto Kagami decided to wrap up the stream.

After all—

Finding both a Kamen Rider Driver and an Anywhere Door today had already far exceeded his expectations.

So—

After a few parting words,

Yuuto Kagami ended the livestream decisively.

"Let's go. Where do you live?"

"I'll take you home."

With a treasure like the Anywhere Door now in his possession, Yuuto Kagami was in a great mood.

He turned to Xu Jia, ready to escort him.

"Ah? Bro Fan, y-you really don't need to trouble yourself…"

Xu Jia was caught off guard, waving his hands in refusal.

But then he glanced at the Anywhere Door beside Yuuto Kagami—

And immediately swallowed his words.

Right. He almost forgot.

Bro Fan had the freakin' Anywhere Door.

One second was all it took to go anywhere.

What "trouble" could there possibly be?

Besides—

After watching Yuuto Kagami teleport across the Nine Provinces and even around the world from just his phone,

Xu Jia's curiosity about the Anywhere Door had already reached its peak.

He'd been dying to experience it firsthand.

So—

Xu Jia simply nodded. "Alright!"

Then—

He gave his home address.

Yuuto Kagami mentally input the location, turned the handle, and opened the Anywhere Door.

Through the doorway, Xu Jia saw a very familiar sight.

His eyes widened in disbelief.

Because—

It was the residential complex where he lived!

"Then I'll head out first, Bro Fan!"

Xu Jia swallowed hard.

After earnestly saying goodbye,

He carefully stepped through the Anywhere Door—

And the very next second,

He was standing right at the base of his apartment building.
