At Yae Miko's Residence
Yae Miko had no idea that her best friend had just sold her out.
All she saw was the rare, amused smile on Ei's face—one she hadn't seen in a long ti.
"Hey, hey, hey, Ei, what's so funny?" Yae Miko asked, tilting her head curiously.
"Nothing much. It's just that the other party already agreed. When there's ti, I'll take you to et Yuki." Ei replied with a light chuckle.
"Huh? They agreed?" Yae Miko blinked in confusion, glancing around. There was no sign of any communication—no letters, no ssengers, not even a trace of another person nearby.
"I didn't see anyone. How did you even contact them?" She narrowed her eyes playfully. "Don't tell you ran into a ghost?"
"You're the one who's seeing ghosts!" Ei shot back, exasperated. "I'm an Archon! No evil spirit would dare co near !"
She gave Yae Miko a flat look before adding, "Our thod of communication is beyond your understanding. Don't pry too much into it."
But the more mysterious Ei acted, the more Yae Miko's curiosity burned.
"Ugh, what's with all the secrecy?" she huffed. "This 'Yuki' person… Could it be so secret little boyfriend you've been hiding away sowhere?"
Ei froze for a second, then glared daggers at her.
"Keep talking, and I'll cut you down. Have you ever seen get close to any man?"
"True," Yae Miko mused, tapping her chin. "At your age, you're probably never getting married~"
"I really will cut you!!!"
"Help! The Raiden Shogun is murdering people!!!"
Ei unsheathed her blade, and Yae Miko imdiately bolted, laughing and begging for rcy at the sa ti.
anwhile, in the Chat Group…
Suddenly, Artemis from the Type-Moon world sent a ssage.
Moon Goddess: "Huh? What's this 'Arena' thing for?"
Young Miss of the East: "It's a special space where group mbers can battle each other!"
Inazuma's Shadow Warrior: "Exactly! You can fight using virtual avatars at full strength!"
Sword Saint Heir: "Co to think of it, the last ti this was used was when Ei and Huaizhu fought!"
Young Miss of the East: "Hehe, I got completely wrecked by Ei-nee!"
Inazuma's Shadow Warrior: "The gap in power was too big. But if Huaizhu keeps training, she'll surpass soon."
Moon Goddess: "In that case, I wanna try it out!"
Sword Saint Heir: "If you're going in, Artemis, you'll need an opponent!"
Vase Leader: "Yeah, but count and Saeko out. We're just normal humans—we can't compete with you gods!"
Moon Goddess: "Then I challenge @Nearly Omnipotent Yuki!"
Nearly Omnipotent: "Huh?"
Heir of the Shizuma Style: "Huh?!"
Everyone was stunned. The difference in power between Artemis and Yuki was like heaven and earth—they weren't even on the sa level. Challenging a multiversal-tier being? Unheard of.
Moon Goddess: "Hehe, I just wanna see how big the gap really is!"
Surprisingly, her boldness sparked the others' curiosity too. Just how different would Yuki's level of power be?
Nearly Omnipotent: "Alright. If you really want to see, I'll oblige."
Yuki accepted.
[Moon Goddess has challenged Nearly Omnipotent to a duel.]
[Spectating is now available!]
One by one, the group mbers' consciousnesses entered the spectator space.
Their avatars materialized in a vast, blank void.
The original four mbers—who had t before—exchanged knowing glances. This was about to get interesting.
"Seitenshi-sama, it's so good to see you again!"
"Good afternoon, Saeko-chan!"
"Hello, Ei-nee!"
"Huaizhu, it's been a while!"
After exchanging warm greetings, the group turned their attention to the arena.
There, standing imposingly, was a massive white machine—its design vaguely resembling a humanoid robot.
"Is that... Lady Artemis? She looks quite different from the Moon Goddess of myth..."
Seitenshi, her snow-white hair cascading elegantly over her formal dress, stared at the chanical figure with a slightly puzzled expression.
"True," agreed Saeko, adjusting her school uniform as her violet locks swayed. "I knew she was a chanical lifeform, but I didn't expect this kind of appearance."
Noticing their gazes, Artemis cheerfully waved from the arena.
"Hey there! First ti eting in person!"
She then glanced down at her massive fra and chuckled awkwardly. "Though I gotta admit, this body is kinda inconvenient for socializing..."
Realizing how intimidating her size must be, she sheepishly added, "Uh, don't get wrong—I'm not offended or anything!"
Huaizhu, dressed in her traditional flowing robes, quickly shook her head. "No, no! We didn't an anything by it!"
"It's fine, really!" Artemis assured them, then mused aloud, "But yeah, maybe I should look into switching to a more compact model later..."
The others blinked at her casual remark. A goddess casually talking about changing bodies like it's no big deal... Then again, the idea of a chanical deity having a gender at all was already mind-bending enough.
"Where's Yuki?" Ei suddenly asked, noticing that only Artemis stood in the arena.
As if on cue, a dazzling portal—resembling the depths of the cosmos itself—materialized above the stage. From its swirling starlight, a lone figure erged.
And the mont the won below caught sight of him, their breath hitched.
He was... breathtaking.
His features were sculpted perfection, every movent exuding effortless grace. An otherworldly aura surrounded him, radiating a magnetism that was impossible to ignore. Words couldn't do justice to his presence—it was like staring at the sun, blinding yet impossible to look away from.
Stepping fully out of the portal, Yuki took a mont to survey his surroundings, his gaze calm yet piercing.
Interesting!
With just a glance, Yuki saw right through the arena's secrets.
On the surface, it looked like an ordinary fighting stage—but in reality, it was an infinitely expanding space, completely separate from the spectator area where Ei and the others stood.
In other words, no interference was possible between the fighters and the audience.
Perfect for all-out battles.
Yuki ntally assessed the space's structure and was mildly impressed.
"Incredibly stable. Even with my current power, breaking through this dinsion would be impossible."
And those higher laws woven into the arena's fabric…
"This chat group's power is at least one level above Omniversal—maybe even beyond that."
"Possibly sothing even greater than a Beyond-Omniversal entity…"
But that realm was still far beyond him.
For now, I should focus on earning enough intimacy points to reach OAA's level.
"Is sothing wrong?"
Yuki's voice, smooth as jade, snapped the four won out of their daze.
Blushing faintly, they finally regained their composure.
"You're… really Yuki-kun?"
Saeko was the first to speak, though the question was unnecessary.
"Of course," Yuki chuckled. "Unless there's another man in our six-mber group?"
His gaze lingered on her for a mont.
Ah, Saeko…
The violet-haired beauty radiated the elegance of a Yamato Nadeshiko, her deanor both refined and deadly.
And that infamous scene from the ani?
Yeah, that left quite the impression.
"Right, of course!"
Saeko laughed softly, shaking her head. "Forgive . Seeing you in person was just… overwhelming."
Her usual cool, composed expression lted into a gentle smile—the perfect blend of regal grace and quiet warmth.
