Exusiai: "Haha, I guess so. If he really died that easily, the BOSS probably wouldn't be courting death every day."
Shinobu Kocho: "...What a strange person. Some people want to die but can't, while others want to live but are killed..."
She sat in the Butterfly Mansion. A rare sadness appeared on Shinobu Kocho's usually smiling face. "Sister..."
Shinobu Kocho's unintentional heartfelt words made the atmosphere of the Chat Group subtly heavy. Topics of life and death always evoke resonance. Fortunately, the Chat Group's notifications broke the heavy atmosphere.
[Ding! Little Fox Fairy has joined the Chat Group!]
[Ding! Ice Queen has joined the Doomsday Chat Group!]
"Hmm? Newcomers?" Ren, who was about to close the Chat Group to enjoy Eriri biting him, stopped his actions.
Aqua: "Newcomers, newcomers! Join the Axis Order! Believe in the Water Goddess!"
Nami: "Uh... Is she always like this?"
Nami remembered that when she first joined the group, Aqua had invited her.
Ren: "Yes, don't join. The people of the Axis Order are not normal."
Aqua: "Damn Ren! How can you insult my believers!"
Ren: "Do you think your believers' brains are fine?"
Aqua: "..."
Aqua: "Cough cough! That's just their expression of reverence and adoration for me!"
Exusiai: "Cough cough, shouldn't we pay attention to the newcomers?"
Shinobu Kocho, realizing she had said something wrong and affected the atmosphere, now actively tried to make up for it.
Shinobu Kocho: "Ara, welcome newcomers to the chat."
Saeko Busujima: "Welcome newcomers."
Ren: "To clear up your doubts, I will introduce you. This is the Doomsday Chat Group, a chat platform where worlds with doomsdays communicate and help each other."
Ice Queen: "Hehe, otherworlders? Or Imperial Arms?"
Aqua: "As expected, they still come in with doubts."
Momonga: "Emmm, who would believe such a ridiculous setting right away?"
Exusiai: "We should make a group introduction and announcement, otherwise explaining it every time is too much trouble."
Ren: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether we explain or not."
Ren: "Those who believe will naturally believe. If they don't believe, even if you put the announcement on their face, they won't believe it. Anyway, whether they believe it or not has no impact on us. Believe it or not."
March 7th: "That makes a lot of sense."
Shinobu Kocho: "So, we're just going to ignore the newcomers' doubts?"
Ice Queen: "..."
Ice Queen: "Are you, or are you all, trying to toy with me in this way? Hehe, very good, you've successfully piqued my interest."
March 7th: "Eek~ This person looks so fierce."
Fierce? Indeed, quite fierce. Ice Queen, otherworlders, Imperial Arms… connecting these terms. Ren immediately thought of the female general from Akame ga Kill, Esdeath.
Aqua: "What about the other person? Why aren't they speaking? @Little Fox Fairy."
For a while, no one spoke.
March 7th: "It seems they don't believe us."
[Ding! Aqua has sent a red packet!]
[Shinobu Kocho has claimed it!]
[March 7th has claimed it!]
[Saeko Busujima has claimed it!]
[Ice Queen has claimed it!]
[The red packet has been claimed!]
Ren: "??? So fast!"
Momonga: "Pfft, that was too fast, wasn't it?"
Nami: "Yeah, I didn't even react. What was in the red packet? Points?"
Shinobu Kocho: "Hmm... It seems to be cabbage?"
March 7th: "Flying cabbage?!"
Saeko Busujima: "Flying cabbage from an Otherworld?"
Ice Queen: "..."
*****
Northern border of the Empire. In the military tent. Wearing a white female military uniform, with long blue hair reaching her waist. Esdeath sat upright on the chair. Her gaze was fixed on the flying cabbage in the sky.
A moment of silence. With a casual wave of her hand, a chill enveloped the cabbage, instantly freezing it and causing it to drop and smash onto the ground.
"Flying cabbage… Is this an Otherworld? Interesting!" Esdeath revealed an excited smile. She began to believe in the existence of the Doomsday Chat Group. "If it's an Otherworld, there should be many powerful opponents, right?" The warlike blood in her body was boiling!
Nami: "Huh? Flying cabbage? What is that?"
Aqua: "It's just edible cabbage, it just flies, I just caught it."
March 7th: "Uh... I really can't imagine what food from an Otherworld would be like."
Nami: "Mm, agreed."
Esdeath: "It seems I need to re-evaluate this Chat Group."
Exusiai: "Oh? Does this mean you believe in the existence of the Chat Group?"
Shinobu Kocho: "Ara, she even changed her name."
Esdeath: "None of that matters, are there any strong people in this Chat Group?"
March 7th: "I am very strong!"
Esdeath: "Oh? How strong?"
March 7th: "Three or four stories tall!"
Ren: "..."
