Chapter 154: Jibril in Danger
At that moment, Eriri heard Little Skirt's sweet voice in her mind once again, though this time, it sounded a bit shy.
"Eriri-sama, can I call you onee-chan from now on?"
"Of course you can."
Eriri was slightly surprised by Little Skirt's request but readily agreed. After spending so much time together, she already regarded Little Skirt as a little sister, rather than just a mere tool for amusement.
"Yay!" Little Skirt's mood soared upon receiving Eriri's approval, her voice filled with joy.
Unlike ordinary beings, a chat group like Little Skirt had an innate understanding of most information from across the multiverse the moment it was born. It also had a natural instinct to fear higher beings.
In the vast multiverse, Eriri was one of the most revered entities. Even those at the pinnacle of the multiverse, Level 9 powerhouses, couldn't necessarily compare to her.
A Level 8 peak powerhouse who could control even a sliver of cosmic energy would gain the opportunity to ascend to Level 9. However, even Level 9 powerhouses didn't possess much cosmic energy within them.
Eriri was an anomaly in the multiverse. The energy within her body was entirely composed of cosmic energy. When the time came, she would naturally ascend to Level 9 and become the most supreme existence in the multiverse.
Even other Level 9 powerhouses would have to bow before her.
The reason Level 9 powerhouses are immortal is due to the cosmic energy within them. As long as cosmic energy exists in the multiverse, even if a Level 9 powerhouse's soul and body are completely destroyed, they will instantly regenerate at full strength.
The only way to kill a Level 9 powerhouse would be the destruction of the entire infinite multiverse—essentially an unsolvable problem.
Cosmic energy cannot be absorbed by living beings. No technique or cultivation method can touch it, and all creatures are unable to perceive its existence. To break through the peak of Level 8 and enter Level 9, one needs a special opportunity to absorb and control a sliver of cosmic energy.
That's why Eriri, who could naturally absorb cosmic energy, was a complete anomaly. What she didn't realize was that ever since she absorbed her first trace of cosmic energy at the age of five, she had already gained the immortality of a Level 9 powerhouse.
Because cosmic energy is so powerful, Eriri can already be considered invincible against those at higher levels. Once she ascends to Level 9, she'll be able to easily defeat other Level 9 powerhouses. Even if multiple Level 9 powerhouses joined forces, they would be no match for her. While they couldn't be killed, they could still be sealed.
With Eriri's unique existence, the chances of the chat group ascending to Level 9 also increased exponentially.
This was why, despite her fear of Eriri, Little Skirt still invited her to join the chat group without hesitation.
If Eriri wanted to, she could erase the Multiverse Same-Sex ♀ Friendship Group at any moment. Little Skirt's devotion to her was not without reason.
Though Little Skirt had grown to understand Eriri's personality over time and could now interact with her more casually, she still never dared to overstep any boundaries.
"Onee-chan, we can invite new members to the group again. Would you like to specify who gets invited, or should I randomly invite people from across the multiverse?"
If the other group members heard Little Skirt's words to Eriri, they would surely feel envious. While they were still struggling to get their hands on a designated invitation letter, Eriri already had control over the rules for inviting new members.
In fact, it wouldn't be wrong to say that the chat group existed solely for Eriri. After all, that was the truth.
"Just invite people randomly. Oh, but make sure to invite Luo Hao from the Campione! world. Let's bring in four new members this time."
After a brief moment of consideration, Eriri decided to let Little Skirt randomly invite people, as it would be more interesting that way.
Life is full of the unknown and the unexpected. Being lucky enough to be chosen by Little Skirt would be a fortunate twist for those invited, and Eriri didn't want to spoil the excitement brought by the element of surprise.
As for Luo Hao, well, Eriri had already promised her. Leaving her hanging after getting what she wanted would be the behavior of a scoundrel, and Eriri made it clear that she wasn't one.
"Understood! Your command is my way of life, onee-chan!"
In the next moment, following Kaguya Shinomiya's recent addition, the chat group officially welcomed its sixth batch of newcomers.
[Luo Cuilian has joined the chat.]
[Haramura Nodoka has joined the chat.]
[Rias Gremory has joined the chat.]
[Jibril has joined the chat.]
[Chika Fujiwara (Level 3, Stage 5): New people have joined! Welcome, welcome.]
[Arifureta (Level 4, Stage 2/Group Leader): Welcome to the new members. Confetti emoji]
[Arifureta (Level 4, Stage 2/Group Leader): Just to clarify, we're all from different worlds. New members can check the group announcements for an introduction, and explore the group's various features.]
[Kaguya Shinomiya (Level 1, Stage 2): Welcome, newcomers! Confetti emoji]
In the depths of Mount Lu in the Campione! world, Luo Hao was as reclusive as ever in her thatched cottage. It had been two days since Eriri had left, and Luo Hao had been eagerly anticipating the chat group ever since Eriri mentioned it.
Now, seeing the chat interface appear in her mind, Luo Hao immediately understood that this was the thing she had been eagerly awaiting.
[Eriri (Level 8, Stage 5): Welcome to the group, Sister Cuilian.]
[Luo Cuilian (Level 5, Stage 4): My dear sister, so this is the chat group? It's just as magical as you said!]
[Erica (Level 5, Stage 3): The Martial Queen has arrived! Welcome to the group.]
[Jibril (Level 3, Stage 9): You're all from different worlds? Does that mean there's a lot of knowledge I don't know about?!]
[Arifureta (Level 4, Stage 2/Group Leader): Eriri, looks like you brought in the great Luo Hao yourself?]
[Eriri (Level 8, Stage 5): Nope, Little Skirt brought her in on her own. What's that got to do with me?]
[Chika Fujiwara (Level 3, Stage 5): Uh-huh, I almost believed that.]
[Kanae Kocho (Level 3, Stage 9): Another new member from the Campione! world? I didn't see the name 'Luo Cuilian' in the memory videos.]
[Luo Cuilian (Level 5, Stage 4): Greetings, everyone. My surname is Luo, courtesy name is Hao, and given name is Cuilian. You may call me Luo Hao or Luo Cuilian. I am the leader of the Holy Cult of the Five Mountains and a Godslayer!]
[Kaguya Shinomiya (Level 1, Stage 2): Another big shot!]
[Yuuki Asuna (Level 3, Stage 3): Welcome, mighty one!]
[Jibril (Level 3, Stage 9): Hey! Are you all just going to ignore me?]
[Eriri (Level 8, Stage 5): Hey, Little Jibril, what time period are you in right now?]
[Jibril (Level 3, Stage 9): Little Jibril? Are you referring to me?]
[Eriri (Level 8, Stage 5): Of course! Little Jibril, mushroom soup. Pitiful, weak, helpless emoji]
[Jibril (Level 3, Stage 9): Why do I feel like you're looking down on me?]
[Jibril (Level 3, Stage 9): Also… how do you have a picture of me? And when did this happen? I don't remember anything like this.]
In the No Game No Life world over 6,000 years ago, floating above Avant Heim, Jibril stared blankly at the image Eriri had sent. Although the art style looked strange, she was sure it was her, specifically her younger form after exhausting all her power and reverting to a child.
However, she had no memory of the event depicted in the image. She was certain she hadn't lost any memories, so what was going on?
[Chika Fujiwara (Level 3, Stage 5): Wow, so cute! Is the newcomer a child?]
[Jibril (Level 3, Stage 9): How could that be?]
[Arifureta (Level 4, Stage 2/Group Leader): That's what Jibril looks like after exhausting all her energy and releasing her Heaven's Strike. Still, I have to admit, it's really cute.]
[Jibril (Level 3, Stage 9): You know about the Heaven's Strike? Who are you people? How do you know so much about me?]
Jibril's expression grew serious. It wasn't just the strength of the group members (if the levels displayed next to their names were accurate) that concerned her. What truly worried her was how they knew so much about her.
After joining the group, Jibril had followed Arifureta's suggestion and quickly skimmed through the chat group's information. She now understood the strength classifications across the multiverse and found the group's assessment of her own strength to be fairly accurate.
While she didn't know exactly what "blowing up a nation" looked like, she definitely wasn't capable of destroying an entire continent.
If the other members' displayed power levels were real, there were quite a few who were stronger than her, not to mention that Eriri person who had referred to her as "Little Jibril." Her Level 8 rank was far beyond what even Jibril's creator, the War God Artosh, could achieve.
[Eriri (Level 8, Stage 5): Hmm, I guess you're currently in the great war period from over 6,000 years ago, right, Jibril?]
[Jibril (Level 3, Stage 9): Yes, and I want you to explain how you know all these things.]
[Eriri (Level 8, Stage 5): Hmm, it seems you haven't learned about the memory videos yet.]
[Jibril (Level 3, Stage 9): Memory videos? What are those?]
[Eriri (Level 8, Stage 5): Never mind, I won't beat around the bush.]
[Ding! Eriri (Level 8, Stage 5) has uploaded the memory video "No Game No Life: Zero."]
[Ruri Gokou (Level 2, Stage 9): Ooh, what's this? A freshly released anime? Everyone, I'm watching it first.]
[Chika Fujiwara (Level 3, Stage 5): Say no more, let's all watch the anime.]
[Eriri (Level 8, Stage 5): Jibril, you should check out the memory video. It'll explain why I know so much about you.]
Hearing Eriri's suggestion, Jibril hesitated only briefly. Trap or not, she had absolute confidence in her strength.
She clicked on the memory video and used the immersion mode to watch it from start to finish. It wasn't a long video, and she finished it quickly.
Her first reaction upon finishing it was disbelief. After all, the story seemed far too outrageous.
[Jibril (Level 3, Stage 9): My master… defeated by a mere monkey? Are you kidding me?]
[Eriri (Level 8, Stage 5): Whether you believe it or not, it's the truth.]
[Jibril (Level 3, Stage 9): Hmph, I don't even care about that. But you're telling me I'd be so beaten up just from destroying a piece of scrap metal? That's an insult!]
[Eriri (Level 8, Stage 5): To be honest, Jibril, you're kind of weak...]
[Jibril (Level 3, Stage 9): ???]
[Jibril (Level 3, Stage 9): Oh? You've got guts calling me weak, monkey.]
Jibril's mood darkened. She had felt frustrated and stifled after watching the memory video, and now hearing Eriri's "taunt" only made things worse. A dangerous smile crept onto her face.
She had read Eriri's profile—species: human. Even if from another world, a human was still just a monkey to her.
How could a 16-year-old monkey surpass a war god in strength?
What a joke!
Jibril was convinced the chat group's strength assessments were inaccurate, and all she could think about now was taking the head of this arrogant "monkey" who dared to insult her.
[Eriri (Level 8, Stage 5): Mm-hmm, Jibril, you should remember that words can bring disaster. I suggest you choose wisely.]
[Kanae Kocho (Level 3, Stage 9): Wow, after watching, I see that the newcomer has quite the bloodthirsty personality. By the way, why haven't the other two newcomers said anything?]
[Arche (Level 3, Stage 7): Agreed.]
[Luo Cuilian (Level 5, Stage 4): I've finished watching too. I must say, this Winged One's way of doing things rather suits my taste. But why would you provoke my dear sister Eriri?]
[Luo Cuilian (Level 5, Stage 4): Even though you are weak, I wouldn't mind lowering myself to personally send you to the underworld.]
[Eriri (Level 8, Stage 5): All right, all right. This is a harmonious and loving group. No fighting, or I'll get angry.]
[Luo Cuilian (Level 5, Stage 4): Hmm… since my sister insists, I'll obey.]
Luo Hao quickly backed down. Although she had never seen Eriri angry and was quite curious about what that might look like, she dared not provoke her.
She had personally experienced Eriri's power and had no idea what consequences might arise if she made her angry.
But Jibril didn't know any better. She was still extremely stubborn. Her determination was evident in how she repeatedly fought the three high-level species on her own. Despite knowing it would push her to the brink of death, she still charged forward without hesitation.
[Jibril (Level 3, Stage 9): Do you all really wish to die? Very well, I see there's a world-crossing feature. Once I gather enough points, I'll come for you.]
