"Lia, cheer up! You're not as useless as you think."
Shiraishi Kawa corrected him solemnly.
"If I didn't have the conviction to protect you, the barrier wouldn't have been broken so quickly. You've always been providing me with spiritual strength!"
In the original work, this trial allows Emilia to grow.
However, this is also accompanied by the crisis of mental breakdown and the pain in the process.
In Shiraishi's opinion, this risk is better avoided!
Given this, is there a way to be both comfortable and conducive to growth?
Yes brothers, yes!
The power of pleasure is perfectly suited to the way it is used for this purpose.
In summary, I'll take care of earning money to support the family, and you'll take care of being beautiful.
These words made Emilia feel awkward, but her pretty face couldn't help but beam with a smile, and at the same time, she felt a warm feeling in her heart.
Shiraishi River has been discovered.
When facing members from another world, cheesy pickup lines that are outdated in their own world are still incredibly powerful weapons when it comes to emotions!
Because of the internet, language versions are updated very quickly.
A popular phrase might not even last half a month before it hastily gives way to something new.
The same applies to the world of "A Certain Magical Index" where Misaka Mikoto resides, and the world of "SAO" where Yuuki Asuna resides.
For them, cheesy pickup lines aren't as effective.
However, when facing Lischelia and Lian Vivit, Shiraishikawa is like a master of romance!
As the saying goes, modern people are exposed to more information in a day than people were exposed to in a month a hundred years ago.
"Dona is quite efficient; she should be rewarded properly in the future."
Shiraishi Kawa thought to himself.
Omitting a few words is actually one way to express affection.
Just like Sheria to Liseria, and Lia to Emilia!
The barrier enveloping the sacred domain originally emitted a constant fluctuation of magical power.
Just like the sun shining brightly during the day, not only in Roswaal 067, but all the villagers could feel it.
The barrier of the Sanctuary was set up by Echidna and has been in operation for hundreds of years.
For the orcs who have experienced birth, aging, sickness, and death within the Holy Land, the barrier itself is as natural as air, water, and sunlight—something that is inherently right in this world!
They may never have given up the idea of going out to see the outside world, but after several generations, they have long since developed a respect for, and even fear of, the barrier.
Not long ago, Roswaal told them that Emilia was able to break the barrier.
In fact, many villagers simply did not believe the news when they heard it!
Now, the magical fluctuations no longer exist!
"What's going on? I was just saying that something suddenly seemed to be missing."
"It's a barrier! The barrier is gone?!"
"Did you notice the carriage that came around dusk? According to Lord Roswaal, it must have been Lady Emilia who removed the barrier for us!"
Chapter 360: The Appearance of Multiple Rabbits! A Perpetual Motion Machine for Grinding Experience!
All of a sudden!
The crowd was surging.
The orcs informed each other and called on their friends to take to the streets.
Before long, all the villagers in the Sanctuary gathered upon hearing the news and flocked towards Roswaal's residence!
Besides expressing their gratitude, they also came to slightly alleviate their shame.
Because just a few minutes earlier, when Emilia arrived at the Sanctuary.
Even though they all knew the news in advance, they still kept their doors and windows closed, adopting a completely unwelcoming attitude towards outsiders!
But in the blink of an eye, the other party had broken the barrier, which is quite embarrassing to think about now.
The weather was gloomy, and large flakes of snow were falling, but this did not dampen the villagers' enthusiasm!
They gathered in the open space in front of the house as if by unspoken agreement.
"Lady Emilia!"
"Please forgive my rudeness just now. It's so kind of you to come and solve the problem for the Holy Land!"
"As Lord Roswaal said, we promise that once we leave, we will stand firmly behind you during the royal selection."
Emilia never expected that, thanks to Shiraishi Kawa, she would receive such treatment.
In fact, the girl always felt awkward when facing the public because of her appearance and race.
However, since joining the dimensional chat group and spending these past few days with Shiraishikawa, it seems that everything is quietly changing!
It may not be obvious, but quantitative changes will eventually lead to qualitative changes.
Upon hearing the villagers' words of gratitude, Emilia hurriedly came out of the room.
"No, I didn't do it, it was all Shiraishi-kun~ It was Rushi Hajime!"
Emilia shook her head repeatedly to clarify that she did want support, but she didn't want to take credit for something that wasn't hers without even realizing it.
She pulled the boy out of the room to corroborate her own testimony.
As the cheers gradually subsided, Shiraishikawa looked around and could see the bewilderment on the faces of the orcs.
After all, Roswaal had never mentioned such a person to them.
but.
"Ahem! Let me just say a few words!"
Shiraishikawa cleared his throat, looking like he was about to launch into a long speech.
"Fellow villagers, I am Emilia's knight, so you are thanking the right person!"
You have successfully gained +1 reputation, now your reputation is 5.
The number of believers in Pleasure is increasing!
The villagers not only trusted Emilia, but also developed trust and respect for Shiraishikawa as a result.
"I don't know why it's snowing, but the temperature is starting to drop, so everyone should go home first!"
Emilia, who worries that others might get cold, is truly an angel.
In their excitement, the villagers had already started planning what luggage to bring, since they would be moving it outside overnight. Why did they care whether it snowed in the sacred area?
at this time.
rustle!
No one moved their feet, yet the sound of footsteps echoed on the snow.
And it's getting closer!
The orcs' senses are several times, even dozens of times, more acute than those of ordinary humans, making it easy for them to pinpoint the source of the sound.
There was a clump of white snow that was constantly wriggling.
Suddenly I looked up!
The shape, resembling a glutinous rice ball, suddenly sprouted two long ears, while simultaneously sniffing out the aroma of food.
"rabbit?!"
“It shouldn’t be from the nearby forest, because I’ve never seen it before, nor have I heard anyone mention it.”
"With horns... that's most likely a magical beast!"
Just as the villagers were discussing it, more and more milky-white, auspicious-looking rabbits gathered around.
There were so many that they covered every corner of the snow, leaving no place for the snowflakes to land.
Shiraishikawa knew it all too well.
These little guys are not only monsters, but they are also devastating beings even among monsters—the Multi-Rabbit!
Created by the Gluttony Witch Daphne, it is one of the three calamity-level magical beasts, alongside the White Whale and the Black Serpent.
Their reproductive capacity far surpasses that of any known species; each individual, as long as it does not die, can replicate itself an infinite number of times, thus perpetuating its life.
The reason it was created was that Daphne wanted everyone to have enough to eat!
With such a thoughtful feature, she considered the rabbit to be the perfect food for humans.
However, this is also the reason why rabbits have become so rampant and are feared by all living things.
Countless countries have already been destroyed by the famine-stricken rabbit horde!
They are particular about what they eat (Zhao Zhao's), mainly targeting high-calorie foods or high-magic targets.
Roswaal unleashed a massive snowfall spell, which, unfortunately, attracted a swarm of rabbits that was lingering nearby to stop it.
If we don't find a way to repel them, I'm afraid none of the people present will even be left with their corpses!
When it comes to a group fight, Shiraishikawa naturally plans to send in the Pleasure Demons.
But then, a certain idea suddenly popped into my head.
Why go to such lengths to wipe them out completely?
If we put the rabbits into the subspace and control their breeding rate, wouldn't we have a portable perpetual motion machine for grinding experience?
While everyone else was thinking about how to completely eliminate the multiple rabbits, Shiraishikawa was considering how to keep them alive!
Chapter 361: The Chosen One of Pleasure: Why Fight When Bunnies Are So Cute?
Without a sound, many rabbits gathered in the land of the Holy Land.
Their arrival had nothing to do with Shiraishikawa breaking the barrier.
