The corner of my mouth raised wickedly. I have managed to vigorously chop the strong ties between those internet normies, severing their bond.
It was somehow thrilling!
Zamaaaaaaaaaa!

The couple, surprised for a moment that their entwined form of love was cut down from behind turned their heads around.
But, too slow.

Running with the speed of light, a smile like a little angel’s crept onto my face¹.
I took full advantage of my endearing ten-ish year old appearance to harass the couple.

It’s just a cute girl’s prank~.
She was just feverish from entering VRMMO for the first time~!
My appearance suggested such opinions.

That should prevent any issue from arising.

Most of them would say “The one who had done it was just a kid, let it go.”
The one who will say it should be the handsome man of the couple.
I let the momentum of the chop carry me between the two of them, and I ran straight through.

Haa, the wind on my cheek feels nice.
Without having any choice, I was then wedged between the two people.

As expected, neither of the couple were criticizing me, and letting the rejuvenated me go ─── they did not.

“So cute~”
Suddenly, my back was touched with something soft. And then, I was caught from both sides and hugged at my chest. And then my feet hanging above the ground.

“Wow, this kid is so cute!”

It seemed like the girl had hugged me.
Who would have thought my cuteness would backfire on me.
What a shame.

I have just bestowed punishment from heaven towards the rude couple that were flirting with each other even in an online game, but right now, I’m holding both of the couples with each hands, being guided by them throughout the Starting City of Michelangelo.
Yeah, both of my hands were clutched by the couple.
The man was holding my right, and the girl my left, so I’m in the middle, going on a tour of the city in peace.

“Yoshi-kyun, I wonder if we have a child, would it feel like this²?
“E-tan, stop it, it’s embarrassing.”
You guys should be more embarrassed by how you two call each other.
Well, personally, I’m already comfortable with my little girl appearance.
Sometimes, the couple takes advantage of the height difference between them and me and let me experience what is known as a swing walk, which is often done by a friendly couple and their young child³.

This is actually very fun, ahem⁴.
“See, this is the item shop.”
Even while they were flirting, the girl, who was called Erina-san, still properly guided me around the city.

“Even though this shop only sells expensive stuff by Michelangelo’s standard, their effects are guaranteed.”
The male player who was supplementing what Erina-san said is called Yoshio-san.

Both of them have avatars that looked to be at their early 20s.
I heard that this Clan couple were also beta testers, so they have played Clan Clan for two weeks the month before.
Which was why they were familiar with the starting city “Michelangelo”‘s layout.
“I can understand Erina-san’s and Yoshio-san’s explanation easily.”
But that doesn’t mean I have decided to join these hateful Clan people.
I have simply modified my strategy to take advantage of this idiot couple⁵.
Let’s extract a lot of information while I’m being guided.
This doesn’t mean I’m getting along with them⁶.

Or rather, the starting point of the adventurers, “Michelangelo”,is ridiculously big, even though it’s the beginner city.
However, I immediately understood the reason after receiving guidance from these two. The reason was that, when the service started, a huge number or mercenaries, in other words, a lot of players will overrun the city⁷.
In order to counterbalance the huge number of players, the starting town needed to be equipped to do it.

“That aside, Taro-chan’s hair color is really pretty. The sparkling bluish particles are also lovely. What equipment is it?”
“What?”
On my dull response, Erina-san’s serious gaze were directed to me.
“There shouldn’t be any silver color in the character creation’s hair color item list.”

The women who pointed out my silver hair, even though a smile were plastered over her face, the smile didn’t reach her eyes.
I, who were spilling cold sweat, immediately answered honestly.

“Eh, no, my appearance, I kept as is…”
“Haa, so it was really a real world module. I already expected that since you have a hair color that’s not available in the character creation menu. Does that mean, Taro-chan, you also have silver hair in real life too?”
This was the first time I have heard that there’s no shade of silver in character creation’s hair color menu.
Perhaps I should have taken a closer look.

“E-tan, you just don’t ask other about the real life. You are troubling Taro-chan.”
While I was taking the liberty to recall about the character creation, Yoshio-san defended me. Good job, lover boy⁸.

“Hmm, you’re right. Sorry, Taro-chan.”
Erina-san lifted one of her hands in front of her face to pose for an earnest apology⁹.
“No, it’s fine.”
“But still, what’s with the glitter of your long hair? I want to know at least that one. Tell this big sister.”
That’s right. I noticed a few moments ago, after Elina had admired how beautiful I looked, that tiny blue particles were being dispersed from my hair.
They scattered off my hair like small fireflies and disappear into nothingness.
Almost all of the particles were flowing down the back of my hair, out of my peripheral view, so I didn’t notice at all until it was pointed out to me.
Frankly speaking, I also don’t know why my hair emitted light¹⁰.

Was it the default setting from character creation?
It can’t be helped, so let’s answer her properly.

“It has been this way since the beginning… can’t you make anything like this?”
“There wasn’t such a setting.”
Erina-san was probing me as if suspicious¹¹.
This girl is irritating, even for a b̲i̲t̲c̲h̲¹².

Do you really want your hair to be sparkling?
“Don’t question her so much like that, E-tan.”
“But Yoshi-kyun, Taro-chan’s hair is really, really pretty.¹³”

“Well, even I can’t refute that.”
“I want it… she’s so cute, I want the angelic Taro-chan.¹⁴”

Erina-san’s face which approaches me as it formed a smile of ecstasy scares me.
“Hmm, it’s rare, but it may be the effect of a rare title.”
For no apparent reason, Yoshio-san raised such conjecture.
Title.
Yes, I have a title called “Sagacious Girl”¹⁵.

Let’s review it once more.

“Sagacious Girl”

【A magical girl whose outside and inside don’t match. Since an older soul inhabited this young vessel, she can produce much more efficient actions than others.
Her vast magical power that maintains her eternal youth flows out of her hair. She is a witch indeed.】
Acquisition requirement: Restoration of youth.
Effect: Receive three times the number of skill points upon leveling up.

Her vast magical power flows out of her hair… she’s a witch indeed.
…This is it.
This is the reason sky-blue particle were ingrained in my hair.

Should I tell them?

“But well, there’s no way that a player will receive such a rare title right at the beginning out of nowhere…”
With Yoshio-san’s absorbed with his own conjecture, I decided that it was best not to publicize matter related to my title.

Jealousy and envy are scary. It was because of these feelings that I have been meddling with these two people.
In online game, you can get alienated just because you have a rare weapon, so I heard from online gamer Kouya¹⁶.

Not to say that in this world, players fought each other to steal equipment, item, and money.
Keeping quiet would be the correct plan.

“Is there even a title that can do that much?”

To avoid suspicion(TL note: or “since I can get suspicious by keeping silent), let’s divert their attention by asking about title.
“Hmm, I don’t think so.”
“Title is an easy thing to get.¹⁷”
“Yeah. However, most titles don’t have the effect of conferring special powers on players.¹⁸”
“That’s right. To be honest, it might feel like only receiving a name. You can show the titles you have received to another player, you know?”

I see, I see. As George said, in Clan Clan, there’s no way to know each other’s name other than being friends, in a combat situation, and some other situations.
I wonder if showing your title to others serve as a way to display your power¹⁹.

“However, although it’s rare, there are some titles that confer some effect to the player.”
“Well, even those titles confer very weak effects. Nevertheless, it’s still better than nothing. People that carries a title that influenced their status were the center of attention during the beta test period.²⁰”
“What kind of titles are they?”
“Let’s see… for example, “Acquaintance of The Flame Emperor”, a title that increases the power of fire-attribute magic and martial arts by 2%, or “1000-year Blacksmith Expert”²¹, a title that provides correction towards blacksmithing skill?”
“The title “The Archive of All Things” was also very sought after. When someone with that title acquire a magic related skill, that person will spend less skill point compared to other people, or so I have heard.²²”

“No matter how you cut it, it must be exaggeration. That would break the game balance.²³”
I, someone who carried a title more absurd than “The Archive of All Things” could understand. Maybe such a title existed after all.
“What’s wrong Taro-chan, you looked like you are thinking something hard. You already have such a cute face… ah, the expression of a troubled beautiful girl is tantalizing too.”
“Just hypothetically. What would happen if there’s a title that doubles the skill point received upon level up?”
Cutting off Erina-san, I asked Yoshio-san.
“Ahaha, if such a title exist, a riot might happen.”
“That’s a title that everyone would be dreaming of.²⁴”
My title provided me triple the amount though.
So this is a title that must be kept a secret no matter what.

“Has the prerequisite requirement to acquire such a rare title ever publicized?”
Anyway, the titles that these two described were useful, I would like to get them if I can.

“Hmm… the title’s prerequisite requirement indeed have been announced publicly, but it was kept as a riddle. They want to keep it a secret after all.”
As I expected, huh.
In contrast with Yoshio-san, who were showing such a difficult face, Erina-san took over the explanation and explained it lightheartedly.
“There are also those who deliberately hide the method to getting titles. This game is really deep. There are still a lot of secrets hidden in the fields that were open during the beta test, not to mention the closed-off area. That’s why, there seems to be a lot of hidden events.”

Now that you think about it, that makes sense.
Let’s take Alchemy for example, exploring the skill would take enormous amount of material²⁵.
There are also a lot of things to try out.

“It’s also hard to share information about Clan Clan too.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“Take the staff members of strategy site for example, any other bulletin board or forum that provides information that isn’t official are banned.”

“Usually, a game would leave the strategy site alone to promote the game, but this game seems to close them one after the other. Even individual blogs were being notified of agreement violation, as if they are trying to block information.”
Are you for real²⁶.

Well, indeed in the user agreement, it is detailed that it is prohibited to share any information related to the product, but that’s impossible to enforced in this day and age. The management that was being invested into the information control is incredible²⁷.

“Take the strategy site ‘The Archive of Blue White Snow Princess’ for example, the site was deleted in record time… the fallout of that deletion was bad…”
“The official thread and bulletin boards were also being monitored, and comments are being deleted.”
“Ha, haa…”

How thorough.²⁸.
“That’s why, it’s hard to get the correct information. Even so, the people who had saved the content of the strategy site for example, have spread the information by mouth.”
“We can’t share information in the official site’s forum after all. It can be said that the truth is in the dark.”

There’s no denying that the management were being very thorough in their part.

However, the people were sharing rumors and legends mouth-to-mouth.
That depends on the players to push forward.

“It’s as if… It’s like a different world where people aren’t allowed to use the power of civilization.”

“Moon’s Tear”, a world full of riddles²⁹.
“It is a world worth adventuring…”
Erina-san and Yoshio-san were looking at me dearly for some reason.
Stop that.

While we’re exploring “Michelangelo” while chatting, the time has turned to 11 o’clock before I notice.

It’s almost time to meet up with big sister.
I took the opportunity to ask for the location of the “church”, our meeting place. I have obtained some useful information from talking with the couple.

“By the way, your sister are waiting at the church, right?”
“Yes.”
“In that case, look, you can see the church there.”

At the direction Yoshio-san pointed, indeed stood a medieval era style church³⁰.
I can see from a distance that in front of the big gate, stood two soldiers wearing basic blue armor, standing still as if to protect the church. I can see their name, so I concluded that they are NPCs.

“Deus³¹ huh… your sister have chosen a good meeting place.”
“Could she also be a beta tester?”

The couple’s eyes were sharp as they look at the church’s guardians.
The blue armored soldiers are called Deus, apparently.
What a glamourous name.
“Ah, um.”
“Aah, sorry. The soldiers reminded me of a trauma.”

“Taro-chan, please don’t mind it. Rather than that, where’s your sister?”

“Ah, no. Just bringing me here is enough. Thank you for telling me where the church is.”
“Eeh, Taro-chan, you would like to say bye bye here? Let’s stay together for a little longer.”
Erina-san crouch down and emphasized her chest.
The two hands that were gathered by the two arms, it’s a poison to the eyes.
I know it’s not intentional because it’s against a girl (me), but I can’t help but notice that my eyes are glued at it.
It’s big.

“It’s okay, isn’t it? I would like to greet your sister.”
“Ah, no. But…”
But, I have explain my appearance to big sister.
I have explain how I, a boy in real life, managed to play as a girl in Clan Clan where gender discrepancy is impossible.

It would attract attention if I were to have this conversation with other people. If possible, I wouldn’t like to talk about it with these love birds around.
“Don’t be unreasonable. You are bothering Taro-chan.”

Nice going, Yoshio-san.
“Then what about just adding us as friends? You are cute after all, so if there’s some freak coming close to you, big sis will beat them up in one shot for you.³²”
Right now, Erina-san, who is frivolously smiling is the pervert candidate number one.

“But, big sis told me that arbitrarily befriending anyone is dangerous.”
Let’s escape with a safe refusal phrase peculiar to children.
I have no intention of getting used to these netizens.

“See, even Taro-chan said that. E-tan, let’s leave it at that.”
Yoshio-san admonishes Erina-san, but Elina-san is not so easily put out of her misery.
“Yoshii don’t get anything! In Clan Clan, players killing each other is a daily occurrence, and there’s this little angel here, you know!? It is a brutal world where there are few 15 year old as is, but this kid can’t be any older than 10-11 years old! Not to mention that she is a beautiful girl whose hair shed blue-silverly particles to the air!? Yoshii, did you hear her!? This girl, she kept her scanned appearance as is! In other word, that is her real life appearance! A foreign beautiful girl!? Whose Japanese are fluent!? Even I who is not a man couldn’t leave this adorable girl alone like that³³!?
Erina-san revealed her true feelings out loud and went crazy.
The players who were walking around gathered and paid attention because of the voice.

“Hey, did you hear that.”
“That cute looks were real module as is?”
“Now that you mention it, silver hair weren’t in the options…”
“Then that’s her real life appearance as is…?”
“Loliiiiiiiiffuuuuuutiful.³⁴”

“…Erina, calm down.”
Ah, Yoshio-san dropped Erina-san’s nickname.
“Wa…”
Elina finally seems to have noticed her surroundings at Yoshio’s attention.

“At this rate, thanks to Erina’s careless statement, a pervert might really approach Taro-chan…”
“Taro-chan, I’m sorry…³⁵”
“I’m sorry that is has come to this… but leaving you here alone is really dangerous. And so, I have a proposal, or rather, a request. Let us at least move together until we bring you to your sister? We would like to greet and apologize too.”

I was overwhelmed by the gentleman attitude that Yoshio-san demonstrated to me as he worried about me, and it was decided that I introduced these two to my sister.

“Haa…”

————

The church’s gate.
The height of the building is about four meters. Although it was old, there was not the slightest hint of fragility due to aging. Rather, it exudes a stately atmosphere, an aura that only someone of advanced age could exude.

On either sides, a Deus wearing blue armor stood stoically.
In front of the impregnable door stood one beautiful woman standing majestically with her arms crossed, flanked by two Deus.

Her long jet-black hair is pinned high on her head, and her slit eyes are fixed on her surroundings with an unflinching gaze.
Long limbs and exceptionally well-styled pony-tailed girl.
She wasn’t wearing the starter equipment like me, but a leather armor attached with a cape, and on her waist, she carries a twin swords, her weapons.

It’s big sis.
She’s unmistakably big sis.
Big sis also kept her character the same as her real life appearance, huh. If I recall correctly, since I last saw her, her hair is now a little longer.

The love birds took me along and stood in front of my sister.
The ponytail pretty girl was looking all around her surroundings.
She must be looking for me.

“Taro-chan…um, is she your sister you’re talking about?”
“Hey hey, she can’t be…”
Erina-san and Yoshio-san said as they wore a surprised face while gazing at my sister.

Responding to the word ‘Taro-chan’, big sister finally looked our way.

We meet face-to-face.
Big sister was staring at me suspiciously.

Now, how to say this…

Gender discrepancy is impossible in this game, it is such VRMMO.
If you see a girl, then she is a girl in real life.
I looked like a 10 year old foreign silver-haired young girl. Whereas, I was a normal high school boy until yesterday, a younger brother. I wonder if big sister would believe that I transformed into a beautiful little girl.

“Hmm, Michel? Tarou?”
Ah, that beautiful dignified voice that can charm anyone.
It’s unmistakable big sister.
She is a terrific sister who can easily recognizes me or her little sister!

“Big sis.”
I plainly replied.
“Ah, that way of calling me… Tarou?”
“Nn, yes, big sis.”
“Eh, but, eh? Tarou, aren’t you cuter than usual?”
“I never considered myself cute at all though.”
“Idiot. As far as your big sis is concerned, every siblings that’s under me is cute.”
“Ah, it’s really you, big sis.”
“Right back at you, Tarou.”

My big sis easily believed the beautiful young girl that is her brother.
My older sister, whom I rarely have a chance to see anymore since she went to college and I started living alone. Hence, I feel a little nostalgia for our usual exchanges.

“There’s a reason for this form.”
“…Tarou, let’s talk about that later…”

As expected of my big sister.
The decision to discuss about me in beautiful girl mode later is as clever as ever.

“And those two behind you?”
Big sis scowled at the couple as if she is facing an enemy.

“Aah, a guide?”
“Taro-chan, that’s cruel! Aren’t we your comrade–³⁶”
On the cue of Erina-san’s word, I hid behind my big sis.
There’s no point in being cozy with my natural enemy, the netizens anymore³⁷.

“I wonder who was it, but it was just a robber love birds. What have you done to my Tarou.”
“Aren’t ma’am Shin-san, “the hunter of wind”? What are ma’am doing here in the starting city…”
Eh, what, of wind?
“I thought you already went to the front line long time ago…³⁸”
“It’s as you can see?”
Big sis took a glance at me, and then her hand rested on the hilt of her swords.

That battle stance made Erina-san and Yoshio-san took a step back.
“Wait, wait. The Deus are this close, if you start a PvP now, we are going to get restrained, you know?”
“That’s right, Shin-san. Can’t you calm down? If we start fighting and the soldiers suppressed us, everyone’s going to incur a penalty.”
Big sis glanced at both soldiers who were standing at either side for an instance.

Is Deus an NPC that serves to interfere in an inter-player fight?
Sounds like the city’s police officers.

I saw that big sis have lent an ear to the couple’s warning, however,
she only smiled mockingly.

“So what? I have enough time to cut you down before Deus pin me down.”

Apparently, from the way the sister talks, it is clear that they were beta testers and that there was a grudge between the couple and the sister during the beta test period³⁹.

I voiced out to big sis, who were still in a battle-ready stance even now.
“Big sis, don’t.”
“Why? I want to kill them though.”
Big sis replied in a hushed voice without looking away from the couple.
“Nn, do it later.”

If we start fighting now, I, who don’t know anything about Clan Clan would be a hindrance. My weapon is a wooden sword too. My combat power is likely nothing too.

Besides, looking at the frightened state of the couple, having the people who guided me killed by my sister feels a little uncomfortable.
I hate normies, but I also have gratitude towards them.
The tension between these two sides are high, but the undesirable couple are significantly flinched back.
It might still be possible to resolve this peacefully.

“Big sis.”
I lightly tugged on her sleeves, insisting that she shouldn’t do it.
At my repeated reproval, big sis subsided the killing intend she had been exuding and sighed as if she had given up.
Thus, she clapped her hands.
“In consideration for Tarou, I will turn a blind eye this time. The next time we meet will be—”
‘You get it, right?’ such wordless pressure floats from her.

“But we have guided Taro-chan this far~”
“H, E-tan. This is bad, we are pulling back.”
“You have my gratitude for guiding Tarou here.”
“Yoshio-san, Erina-san, thank you very much.”

“You’re welcome~”
“However, don’t associate with my Tarou for the second time, you hear me?”
“Eeh.” Erina-san was shocked.
“You understand?”
“A player’s personal freedom to interact with other player…”
“You get it, right?”

“Alright-. Taro-chan, if anything happen, don’t be afraid to reach out to me~.”
“Oi, idiot. Hey, we are skedaddling.”

Dejectedly, the love birds disappeared into the street.

“Well the, Tarou.”
“What is it, big sis?”

“I have listened to what you said. You will answer my question next, right?”
“Ah, well, nn.”

“Why you, Tarou, has become a beautiful little girl? You shouldn’t be able to create a character whose gender don’t match your real gender.”

Big sis asked me a reasonable question.

Translator note: Thanks for waiting! After the one month and a half period of rest, here’s the next chapter. Thanks to that, I have built a stockpile of 5 next chapters. The schedule will return to once per week, like the previous schedule. I also plan on taking advantage of HTML and CSS coding in the future, so you may see some cosmetic changes in the next chapter. Also, I replaced “Experienced Girl” with “Sagacious Girl”. The original, “老練たる少女”, means a girl who has gained experience through age. I thought “Experienced” would be a good translation, since it literally means “Experienced”, but my proofreader came up with “Elder Child”, which does sound cool. However, I don’t feel the sense of experience from the word “Elder”, so someone else came up with “Sagacious”. Let me know what you think in the comment below, if it is to your taste, or you have an opinion, or another name. By the way, “Expert Girl”, “Veteran Girl”, “Accomplished Girl” were amongst the candidates. Also, let me know what do you think of the status board table. I plan to put any system log into a box too, like what I Was Heartbroken, so I Became A VTuber do. I recommend reading this, whether at V-trus website or at re-library. I think that the color scheme is best read in light mode though.

1. Librarian: The angel is Lucifer.
2. Librarian: Is this supposed to be kun? I don’t think it’s supposed to be kyun.
   Richie: Nah, she added a little “nyaa” to be cuter. It’s already correct
3. Richie: I’m surprised DeepL knows what a swing walk is. It took a little bit for me to find it.
   Librarian: Me too.
   Richie: Oh yeah, if anyone is curious, I only use DeepL over confusing sentences. This isn’t an MTL where I proofread it.
4. Librarian: No, I am not childish
5. Richie: In case you haven’t noticed (or I have badly translated the implication), Taro really hate this couple.
   Librarian: Since Taro just got rejected, he developed a hatred for couples.
6. Librarian: Taro convincing themselves that they aren’t nice.
7. Librarian: Based on what I understand, Clan Clan is a game as a service. Which isn’t really right? Games as a service usually require you to pay for a monthly subscription. Which I am pretty sure Clan Clan does not, other than indirectly asking you to pay for the electricity bills.
   Richie: The original use the phrase “service start”, so I just translated it as is.
8. Librarian: I wonder what happens if Taro meets Yae Miko from Genshin.
9. I can’t find a picture of it. Anyway, the person bow a little, then lift on her hands, palm facing to the opposite side of the hand, up to the level of her face. This symbolize that the person is sorry for what she has done. Librarian has found this image online, except she bowed slightly, and only one of her hand is in position, not both. https://rb.gy/gpgxa
10. Librarian: Imagine glitter falling off your hair. A spectacle.
    Richie: I agree, and there will be a lot more visual treat like this ahead.
11. Librarian: I see pretty thing, I want pretty thing.
12. Librarian: Don’t use that word. Usually, dogs are loyal.
    Richie: Wait, the word originated from a dog? Oh.
13. Librarian: I know it’s a useable honorific, but even then I don’t think most boys like being called cute.
    Richie: Eh, she is trying to make herself look cute, not to express that he is cute.
14. Librarian: She has minor yandere tendencies toward Taro’s hair.
15. Richie: I previously translated this as “Experienced Girl”, in case you are confused. I changed it to Sagacious. Reason is written at my note at the end of the story, so enjoy it for now
16. Librarian: You mean a c5 qiqi?
17. Librarian: …No? No, they are not?
18. Librarian: THAT’S THE ENTIRE POINT OF TITLES! TO GIVE PEOPLE WHO DID SOMETHING EXTRAORDINARY A BOOST!
    Richie: Nyahaha~ so most title is as good as medal of honor. Got it.
19. Librarian: [Title:Dragon Killer]. Yes. Yes it does.
20. Librarian: I would like to point out that percentile buffs, even those like 2%, are invaluable in most MMOs. And correction is absurd.
21. Richie: DeepL gave me “Grand Elder Marquis of the Millennium Forge”. Let me know which one you prefer in the comments.
22. Librarian: That title should give a reduction toward skill acquisition, skill leveling, and skill cost usage. After all, it’s all knowledge.
23. Librarian: The only unbalanced thing is the understanding of how broken half the mechanics are.
    Richie: I want to see the owner of that title, as long as the person is decent.
24. Librarian: I have seen worse and more balance breaking things.
25. Librarian: Honestly, I’m surprised. The fact that just about every skill hasn’t been stress tested to a particular level.
26. Librarian: This is… an absurdly idiotic tactic. This line implies that guild recruit notices, guides, helpful tips, basically everything, is banned. This will kill the game.
27. Librarian: Based on my knowledge of law, this actually breaks American Law. NDAs, which are the only ones that can even do this, still have limits. Limits that I can guarantee this game does not have.
28. Librarian: And how impossible. Sure, official forums might cow down, but what about underground sites? It isn’t a joke to say that they will exist as an open secret to anyone willing to get information. That’s why Pirate Bay exists, and that place was breaking some laws. This? Sharing information that almost everyone can get? Yeah, you are better off convincing the earth is flat
29. Librarian: And of legal disagreements.
30. Librarian: Imagine a generic church. Churches these days are square buildings of cement.
31. It is translated to Japanese as holy soldiers.
32. Richie: If so, please beat yourself away in one shot.
    Librarian: Alchemical Production – Ashes to Ashes. Instakill!
33. Richie: To be honest, Erina, as polite as I can be, you are mixing your ulterior motive with plausible excuses.
    Librarian: If you want to gaslight someone, please try harder.
34. Librarian: Loli+Beautiful.
35. Richie: Before you readers throw your hate comment on Erina, the story went up to chapter 200+, so at least this didn’t end the story.
36. Librarian: Comrades? Butcher ’em!
37. Librarian: And the simps. And the stans.
38. Librarian: In this context, front lines mean the place with the highest grade of loot and levels. Think of it has the highest point players can reasonably level.
    Richie: Eh, I disagree. I think that frontline is wherever the players are pushing to unlock new inaccessible location of main route.
39. Librarian: I think that it’s a reputation your sister got, Taro.
