After the entrance ceremony and first class concluded, Crim returned to Destiny Unchain Online, where she began preparations for her second live stream.
Then, later that night…
“…Adyyja! Thou did well to return, humans. I’m Crim Lua Cheia! Leader of the guild Lua Cheia!”
That was going to be Crim’s catchphrase, so she had practiced it countless times whenever everyone else was offline. She nodded with satisfaction as she got the words out without stammering, and then turned around while making her cloak flutter across the camera.
Yes, ’tis an auspicious moment. Everyone who took part in or watched the Preliminary Guild Rank Placement Tournament deserves some recognition.
Comment: Cheers!
Comment: Congratulations on 2nd place!
Comment: I watched! It was really cool!
Comment: It was really close in the end…
Crim watched the onrush of supportive comments and nodded with satisfaction, then spoke again.
Indeed…such is the nature of competition, victory and defeat are both sides of the same coin. Regardless, I must admit that second place was a better result than I could’ve hoped for.
First off, there’s something I postponed during the last broadcast, due to the impending event, but now the members of Lua Cheia shall introduce themselves. Everyone who fought alongside me!
Comment: I’ve been waiting for this!
Comment: The fox girl!
Comment: Robo-chan!
Good good, I see they already have some fans. But yes, they’re all my guild members who gave their everything on the battlefield!
Saying that she sat down with her arms stretched out, at which point the lights came on to show Frey and Freya standing on each side of her, with Hinagiku and Lycoris next to them as well.
Let’s start with our assault commander, Hinagiku.
Okay. I’m Hinagiku, I’m a Silver Fox, a rare variety of the War Beast species!
Hinagiku beamed a smile as she introduced herself with a cheerful voice. In response, the chat was filled with friendly comments.
Comment: I wish she was my little sister
Comment: She was really strong though
Comment: A strong little girl
Comment: She’s like the goddess of katanas
Also…if there’s any PKers please name yourselves. I’ll go kill you.
Then all light faded from her eyes as she muttered that, immediately causing a stir in the comments.
Comment: Hiee-
Comment: So she’s a radical pkker..?!
Comment: I’d let Hinagiku-chan cut me down though
Comment: ^x2
Comment: She killed me before, no regrets
Comment: I’ll go become a pker too
Crim realized the broadcast was turning into a dangerous direction, so she hurried to move things along.
N-Next up! Lycoris please!
Ah, yes! Umm, I’m Lycoris. My species is called Norma Machina…
Lycoris was far more nervous than Hinagiku as she introduced herself.
But she was still a lot more assertive than she was before the tournament, as she had gained some confidence through it.
Comment: She’s so cute too!
Comment: She looks even more pure than Crim-chan
Comment: Congrats on getting the MVP award!
Comment: That last shot was the thing of legends
Th-Thank you! Thank you so much!!
Seeing all the compliments rush one after another, Lycoris began bowing rapidly in appreciation. But that only accelerated the pace at which the comments calling her cute came in…
Comment: By the way, what was that beam rifle you used?
Comment: Ah, I’ve been wondering too
When that question popped up, Lycoris’ body twitched for a moment. She had the sudden urge to talk about her gun obsessively, but she forcefully contained herself.
Ah…I’m sorry, but information about my weapon…is secret…
Her gun obsession made her want to talk, but it was better to keep those details secret for their guild, making her feel conflicted.
Crim did like secrecy most of the time, but she was mostly concerned about keeping Lycoris’ gun secret in preparation for the tournament, and did not care as much now. But Lycoris had taken Crim’s advice to heart, and remained keeping it secret.
Comment: She’s itching to talk though lol
Comment: I can tell she wants to talk about it so badly lol
Comment: I’m starting to feel like she’s one of us now lol
Comment: wdym none of us is that cute!!
The comments all seemed to be in agreement with each other. Crim nodded in approval, then turned to the twins who stood closest to her, signaling to Frey with arrogance, fully embracing the role of Demon Lord.
Frey, thou are next.
Understood. I’m Frey, a rare type of elf called High Elf. I don’t think any of you have any interest in me so sister, the floor is yours.
Huh?! Ah, right!
W-Wait, Frey? Why are you running away like that?!
Comment: There he is, the f̲u̲c̲k̲i̲n̲g harem protagonist
Comment: Regulars of the gossip forums, assemble!
Comment: Stupid four-eyes
Comment: B̲a̲s̲t̲a̲r̲d̲ four-eyes
Comment, Wait, he’s already done lol
Comment: He knew what was going to happen lmao
Comment: Y’all are crazy
Comment: The elf chick was caught off by that lmao
Comment: Crim-chan just broke character lol
Comment: It seems the elf chick is his older sister though
Comment: A sisterly elf…that’s perfect!
Crim was utterly confused while Freya desperately tried to introduce herself, having been given the stage so suddenly.
Ahh, umm…I’m Freya. I’m Frey’s older sister, and a High Elf just like him… I guess I’m also like Crim’s older sister…kinda?
Comment: I like sisterly elves
Comment: An elder-sister like one…wait that’s not it!!
Comment: There’s a lot of pretty elven girls, but she’s probably one of the best
Comment: She looks pure and innocent, but she’s also a juggernaut healer…
Comment: I don’t think her chest will let her tank a lot…
Comment: She has armor so it’s fine
Comment: Her cleavage really makes her look so sexy though
Comment: Can you be my sister too?!
Watch it, you shouldn’t talk about a girl’s chest, okay?
The chat had started focusing solely on her chest, so she covered it with her arms and chided them with a calm voice, and…
Comment: I’m sorry sis!
Comment: She’s full of sisterly power…
Comment: Remember to be respectful with your sister everyone
Comment: Even her voice scolding us is gentle…
The comments were turned around completely. Somehow there was one person there who did not look too pleased though.
Hrngh…
There was an uncomfortable grunt…from Crim. Seeing all of those comments had a certain emotion to well up in her chest, and now…
Listen up, everyone. Her blood is mine and mine alone, every single drop. I shan’t forgive any attempts at stealing her, understood?!
Huh?! Ah, C-Crim?
Unable to stand the murky feeling in her chest, Crim stood up and hugged Freya from behind, her face peeking over Freya’s shoulder to stare into the camera, as if showing off her possession.
It was mostly Crim’s subconscious desire to monopolize her, but at the same time it looked like…
Comment: She got so jealous lol
Comment: So Crim-chan is the jealous type lmao
Comment: Sis looks so shocked too, and cute
Comment: I can see why she’d be jealous!
Comment: She’s like a little girl worried that her sister will be taken away by someone else lol
Crim’s eyes were teary and her cheeks were puffed, looking just like a little girl who was too attached to her sister and would not let anyone get close.
…Ahahah, you’re so helpless. Let’s leave it for later, okay?
Hmm…
After Freya comforted her, Crim reluctantly let go. There was some silence and calm for a bit…but then more comments came flooding in.
Comment: Adyyja!
Comment: It started!
Comment: That greeting came out a bit smoother this time lol
Comment: I bet she was practicing in secret
Comment: Crim-chan, congratulations on becoming a Demon Lord!!
