章節 750: Practice
In order to prepare for the upcoming Monster Feria, though they may have to change the name in the future with how much it was going to change, the girls had separated themselves into two teams. Though Vahn would be doing his own thing, the girls' exhibition of Volleyball and Soccer were going to be two of the big events meant to get the people excited about future exhibitions. After all, it was rather exciting watching sports matches played out, especially if the competitors were handsome men, or beautiful women. As for the sports themselves, they had been modified to make things more interesting as 'simply kicking a ball' would have been a very boring event to observe.
For the two Volleyball teams, the girls had divided themselves as evenly as possible, with Ais, Lili, Lefiya, Chloe, and Lunoire on one team while Tiona, Tione, Arnya, Emiru, and Maemi were on the other. Unlike a normal game of Volleyball, the girls had somewhat unique roles that corresponded to the changes that had been made to make the game more suitable for this world. Because people were capable of superhuman feats, even moving in bursts of speed that far surpassed the speed of sound, the court would be the entire Coliseum arena.
In order to make things more difficult, and visually interesting, the only person allowed to spike the ball was the 'Aerial Ace', which was a unique position that was filled by Ais and Tiona respectively. Since they were able to fly, they would be able to zip around above the other four players and receive the ball, trying to spike it down into the opposing team's field. As for other unique rules, the forward members were allowed to 'catch' the ball, only when it had been spiked, before passing it back to the rear guard to put it back into play. The reason for this was that it was almost impossible to receive a ball spiked at such speeds 'safely' by just hitting it with your wrists and forearms. To avoid having limbs broken during the game, the rule had been modified to allow the players to catch the rather durable ball.
Soccer was even more hardcore that Volleyball, though the differences in the outfits might make it considerably less popular. After all, when the girls played Volleyball, they would be wearing something similar to halter tops and formfitting shorts, meant to protect their dignity with padding, but still very visually appealing. As for Soccer, they had armguards, shin protectors, and even thin breastplates meant to protect them from injury. The speed and force behind the Soccerball was enough to make it pass through a wall like a cannonball, so it was necessary to include protective equipment.
The rules for Soccer were also very different from normal as, instead of a giant goal, each team had a series of three rings. The ring in the center was smaller than the other two and was worth three points if you managed to score. As for the outer rings, they were worth only one point each and were nearly twice the size of the center ring. The goalie was allowed to protect all three rings, but the most important ring would obviously be their primary focus. As for the four players, though future teams would have up to nine, they had been split into attackers and defenders.
Attackers were allowed to go onto the opposing team's field while defenders were required to stay on their own side. This made it necessary to choose a proper balance for your strategy and, much like actual Soccer, players were required to use their legs to play the ball. However, you were allowed to receive it with your chest and deflect the ball with your forearms, though the latter was only if you were a defender. As for the unique right of attackers, they were the only ones allowed to try and score on the center goal, while anyone was 'technically' allowed to score on the other two. There were no rules in place restricting where the goalie had to be on the field, meaning they could become an impromptu attacker or defender, but only enemy attackers were allowed into their box. This meant that the defenders that stayed back, should the goalie leave their post, would have to keep the ball from getting into that region...
Vahn was currently watching the two teams play against each other, contemplating if he needed to change their outfits since they even made him feel an itch in his heart. Seeing them run around and try to best each other in the sport, smiles on their faces with competitive glints in their eyes, made Vahn feel very excited. He actually had the urge to play the game himself, as it looked very enjoyable, and hoped that the people in the stands would feel the same. Unfortunately, there would undoubtedly be people that are more focused on the exposed skin of the girls instead of the sport itself. Vahn wanted to increase the forms of entertainment in this world, especially for the younger generations, not put on a show for perverts to enjoy at the expense of the players' dignity...
Seeing Lili jump 20m up into the air in an instant, twisting her body while completely inverting her position just to kick the ball upside down, Vahn found himself marveling at the display and being distracted by it at the same time. After all, Lili looked like a very young girl and, wearing nothing by small red spats and what looked like a slightly thicker sports bra stood out a great deal. However, it was the girls like Tiona, who had just managed to 'catch' the ball with her feet, that would cause a bigger stir.
The bottoms Tiona had opted to wear were even smaller than the green shorts that Ryuu usually wore into the Dungeon. She also had on a thin white band around her chest, as she didn't like having a restrictive cloth around her shoulders. It looked like she was wearing white underwear and, if not for the extra padding, it probably would have become slightly transparent from her exertions. Yes, though he would never quite understand why, it was very common for capable Adventurers to wear rather revealing clothes, especially females, but Vahn still felt a little bothered knowing that a crowd of people would be gawking at their figures...especially...
Receiving the ball that Tiona had kicked across the entire field, Lefiya was actually pushed back nearly three meters by the force. Fortunately, Endurance allowed people to disperse shockwaves and Lefiya's had experienced explosive growth compared to the past. The problem was, much like Lili, she was wearing red spats and a red top. If not for the breastplate protecting her rather 'developed' assets, it would have almost looked criminal to have her on the field. Ever since she became a Spirit, Lefiya's beauty had transcended normal standards and, with her simultaneously youthful and sensuous appearance, Vahn was worried about even letting her compete...
Nudging him with her elbow, Tsubaki, who had been watching the match with him, had a cheeky smile on her face as she said, "Don't be jealous so easily, Vahn. After all, aren't all those girls out there already your's? Have some confidence!" Vahn rubbed his ribs, even though the pain had already faded, commenting, "Aren't you supposed to be mine as well...?" Somewhat surprisingly, Tsubaki nodded her head in affirmation before placing her arm around his shoulders and pulling him close, saying, "And you're mine as well..." Though he was enjoying the feeling of her breasts against the side, Vahn wasn't able to do so for long as the ball had been deflected in their direction, moving around 1800km/h.
Tsubaki released her grip on Vahn's head while stepping forward, reaching out her left hand in the process to completely stop the ball's momentum. It spun in her hand for a few seconds, carrying a great deal of rotational force but it seemed like Tsubaki's inertia had turned her into an immovable object. Even so, by the time the ball had stopped spinning, she clicked her tongue and shook out her hand before tossing it back into play. Turning back to Vahn, she had an amused expression on her face as she said, "These sports look fun, but they're also pretty dangerous. You might have to come up with something that allows people to compete without directly pitting them against each other..."
Vahn nodded his head, understanding the truth behind Tsubaki's words since there had already been a few injuries. During Volleyball, it wasn't that uncommon for people to sprain, or even break, their wrists. Tione had even taken a hit to the face once, causing her to go absolutely berserk since it had chipped one of her teeth. If not for his ability to use [Wounds Transfer] to repair the damage, she might have still been attacking Ais to this day.
To prevent things like this, Vahn had introduced the idea of using protective equipment but it had been largely shut down since the girls themselves seemed to enjoy playing without using it. In fact, the outfits he had originally designed were much more 'tame' compared to what they eventually decided upon. However, as he respected the girls' decisions, especially when it came to their own bodies, Vahn had made the requested changes until they ended up with something that was between swimsuits and thick underwear. He was just glad they had decided to use proper protection during Soccer, as the speed and force behind the ball could be very dangerous if you took a bad hit.
If Vahn wanted to eliminate the potential for injury, while also removing the need for protective gear, he would have to implement sports that didn't endanger the players. Since these were supposed to be played by children, it would probably be a good idea. The only reason he had chosen these, to begin with, was because the girls had enjoyed it and it seemed like a good way to foster friendly competition. With the potential for injury, however, the competition might not be so friendly after the first serious injuries...
The easiest type of 'sport' to implement would be things like archery, racing, and other physical sports. However, these types of events typically weren't that 'interesting' to witness and, depending on the balance of a person's skills, abilities, and parameters, there would be a very big distinction between those with ability modifiers, and those without. The only way to keep things relatively fair was to have people compete in team events, ones where the use of skills and abilities either had no effect, or a minimal effect. If it came down to pure parameters, that was just the difference in 'effort' that had been put in by the players, meaning it could be overcome if people tried hard enough.
One of the 'potential' solutions Vahn had thought about was having the students simply fight against monsters, instead of each other. This could be entertaining to watch, allowed them to compete against each other, and also helped to increase their strength and battle experience. However, making sure the matches were fair would be very difficult, as the difference in strength of similar monsters could be massive. Procuring a lot of monsters would also be very difficult, even if they coordinated with Familias like the Ganesha Familia. And, though it was possible to make things like simple golems, they weren't actually that difficult to fight against, as having them perform complex functions was simply impossible...
Realizing how complicated things would be in the future, Vahn released a small sigh but, even though this was the case, he smiled immediately afterward. After all, even if it was hard to find a balanced method for people to compete, it was still worth looking into. If he could increase the forms of entertainment in the world, while simultaneously allowing the strengths of individuals to develop, the future would be a lot more interesting. His main goal was to increase the number of paths and professions available to people, instead of making the only practical means of becoming successful based on combat and mercantilism. There needed to be more 'fun' things in the world, other than simply sex, fighting, gambling, drinking, and drugs...
Eventually, the ongoing Soccer match had come to an end, with Tiona's team emerging as the victors. Her coordination with Tione made them very capable attackers while the synchronization between Maemi and Emiru made them monstrous on both attack and defense. With Arnya as their goalie, it had been almost impossible for Ais' team to score too many points, not that they really lost by much, either. Ais and Lili might not have had the coordination of Tiona and Tione, but Ais' speed and control were almost unrivaled while Lili's spatial awareness and kicking strength were almost as monstrous as Tiona's. Their only real weakness was the fact that Lefiya lacked the coordination and athleticism to play her role as a defender properly, though Chloe and Lunoire covered for her well. Lunoire's defense as a goalie made it difficult for anyone on the opposing team to score and, if not for the combined efforts of Tiona and Tione, they would have had a lot fewer points.
Vahn watched as the girls gathered together, sharing handshakes, high fives, and hugs, skin glistening with sweat. This only served to enhance their beauty even further, putting him in enough of a daze that he hadn't reacted before Tsubaki heavily patted his back and said, "Don't just gawk. I'm sure any of them would accept your offer if you wanted to go 'play' with them, hahahahaha~."
After catching his balance, Vahn looked back at the smiling Tsubaki just as she vanished from the Sub-Space orb, likely returning to check on Sakuya. He had been contemplating 'playing' with her but it seemed as though she had seen through his intention and 'escaped'. Snorting, with a smile on both of his faces, Vahn's main body headed towards the maternity ward to tease Tsubaki while his Avatar, the one that had been watching the game, went to discuss the specifics of the upcoming 'sports festival' with the girls. When that was finished, they all made their way over to the onsen to enjoy a hot bath together, relax, and, after a bit of further discussion, Vahn went into a private room with the 'winning' team to celebrate their victory. Of course, he promised to 'compensate' the losing team a little later on, much to the satisfaction of Ais, Lefiya, and Lili...
(A/N: Yeah, I'm not just feeling it today. This chapter took me twice as long to write as it normally would have and, as I'm sure you noticed, the content is a bit all over the place. I'm gonna write a couple of Fenrir's Journey today and just revitalize my batteries a bit.)

章節 751: Cycle of Life
Even ignoring the fact he was spending nearly ten days worth of time within a single day, time always seemed to pass both slowly, and very quickly at the same time. It could have been the result of his shifting perception, from controlling two bodies, but Vahn suddenly found himself in the delivery ward once again, this time staring into down at the form of his son with a complacent and proud smile on his face. He seemed incredibly healthy, practically radiating a powerful aura of 'life' from his body that had a soothing effect on everyone present, including the exhausted Riveria.
Much like Ryuu, she had been in labor for quite a long time, taking a little more than fifteen hours before finally releasing a profoundly relieved sigh. She was currently resting her head against the stack of pillows supporting her body, patiently waiting for her son to be handed over to her. Vahn, however, knew she wasn't actually as 'patient' as she was letting on so, after handing over the jade-haired little High Elf to Preasia to be cleaned, he wiped down his hands and then carried the form of his young son to her side. When she opened her eyes, Riveria's jade-green irises were wavering slightly and it almost seemed like she would burst into tears at any moment.
After passing over his son into the waiting arms of his mother, Vahn ran his fingers through Riveria's long jade-green hair, a gentle smile on his face as she looked down at their son with expressions of awe and love fighting for dominance over her generally noble and elegant countenance. However, no matter how close she seemed appeared to get, Riveria managed to avoid shedding tears outright and, but for a few lone crystal clear drops, the only thing present on her face was a beautiful smile, practically glowing within the well-lit and warm room. She gingerly reached out to touch their sons face with her fingers, almost as if she couldn't quite believe he was real, before saying, "I hope he is always so well behaved...fuuuu..."
Vahn released a light chuckle, understanding Riveria's meaning since their son had only cried out for a very short moment earlier before quickly calming down. Now, he just lay his mother's arms while showing a variety of facial expressions, almost as if he were trying to learn how to control his facial muscles. Every now and then, jade-green eyes would appear as the young High Elf struggled to open his eyes. They were slightly lighter than Riveria's, but it was very obvious that he had inherited her characteristic hair and eye color, essentially shouting out to the entire world that he was the inheritor to the Ljos Alf bloodline.
With a bit of hesitation, Riveria suddenly asked, "Is it really okay to name him...Vahn...I..." Shaking his head slightly, Vahn just continued to stroke Riveria's hair as he said, "It is only a name. Regardless of what my children are called, I will care and love for them to the best of my ability. This is my pride as a father, the honor I have been blessed with by surrounding myself with so many beautiful and capable women..."
Riveria inhaled a deep breath, fighting the tingling feeling in her nose that seemed to cause moisture to build up in her eyes. Swallowing the knot in her throat, she did her best to produce a smile, an act made easier when she saw her son energetically moving about. In the soft and elegant voice she generally only reserved for the people she was closest to, Riveria gently hugged the body of her son and said, "From now on, your name will be Masonia Ljos Alf...even though this name may become your burden one day, your father and I will always support you..." Leaning down, Riveria kissed the forehead of their son, Masonia, this time liberating a few more of her tears as Vahn's body visibly tilted a few degrees to the right...

Soulbound: Masonia Ljos Alf
----------------------------------------------------------------------
She hadn't noticed it immediately, as she was too focused on Masonia, but Riveria eventually turned her eyes to Vahn, momentary confusion flashing across her jade-green irises. Vahn habitually produced a smile before regaining his composure and saying, "Sorry, my ability had kicked in while I was looking at our son..." Reaching out his hand, Vahn produced the [Spirit-Jade of Yggdrasil], surprising both Riveria and himself with how powerful the aura radiating off the small emerald-green pendant was. At the same time, a complex and indecipherable magic circle appeared, causing a gentle light to spread through the ward as the form of Masonia's Guardian took shape.
Everyone present in the room watched as the light slowly coalesced into a rather small form and, as the light began to fade, Vahn had already moved his arms to snatch it out of the air before an accident occurred. Within his arms, much to the incredulity of everyone that hadn't witnessed the formation of Doppel, there was now a brown-skinned infant girl with similarly jade green hair to Riveria and Masonia. When she opened her eyes, however, they were a vibrant pink and, the moment she saw Vahn, vines began to sprout from her body, coiling around his arms as she giggled happily.
From the bed, Riveria was absentmindedly staring at the figure in Vahn's hands, a whisper of disbelief escaping her lips as she asked, "A Dryad...?" Though she had asked the question to no one in particular, Vahn smiled in response and said, "This is Masonia's Guardian, the immortal companion who will protect him from harm. She isn't a Dryad though, not that it would be incorrect to call her one...she is a Meliai Dryad Queen, a nymph of the World Tree, Yggdrasil..." Considering the path his son would walk in the future, Vahn wasn't surprised that his Guardian would be a 'Queen'. Since it had a clearly defined gender, Vahn just hoped that they exercised a sense of propriety in the future. He would need to make sure his son didn't have the same curious nature Vahn himself had in his youth...
Bringing the young Dryad Queen over to the bed, she immediately 'ignored' him and happily 'lunged' towards Masonia, turning into jade-green light as she entered into his body. Masonia released a laugh of his own, breaking Riveria from her stupor as a gentle smile spread across her face. She knew how incredible an existence Yggdrasil was so, hearing that her son had one of the protector spirits of the World Tree, Riveria had been very surprised. However, knowing that such a powerful entity would be protecting her son, she felt a great deal of relief, even though she shared some of the same concerns as Vahn. She would have to be strict with Masonia in the future to prevent the young High Elf from acting without restraint...
With the reminder of Hestia, Riveria finally started to give Masonia his first meal, embarrassing the 'young' mother for having forgotten something so important. Soon after, Masonia finally went to sleep with a contented expression on his pristine white face. After that, Riveria was also feeling greatly fatigued and, now that the tensions in her body had started to release, it was important for her to get some rest of her own. Vahn, as he ought to do, stayed at her side throughout the night, simply watching over the two of them before, as was also common in this scenario, he accepted Hestia's offer of a lap pillow.
---
The birth of Masonia had occurred only three days before the coming Monster Feria, which had turned into a much larger event after the Alliance started campaigning and advertising the event throughout the city. Things had gotten so out of hand that the schedule had been extended to encompass a five-day period, as the number of people that had wanted to attend was several times more than in the past. One of the reasons for this was, unlike previous Monster Ferias, there would actually be an event that the spectators could participate in. This wouldn't have mattered to most people but, as there was a 1,000,000,000V prize offered, the entire city was in an uproar.
Vahn had decided to use the Monster Feria as a platform to put on a public demonstration of his base power, both to increase his fame and deter future enemies from trying to find trouble with him. Since Zeus, Hera, Siegfried, and Jeanne had already seen him reveal some of his cards, there wasn't any great benefit in keeping his basic abilities a secret from the public. Though it might pull some powerful warriors out of the woodwork, this wasn't exactly a bad thing since it would allow him to polish his skills further and, in some cases, potentially recruit combat instructors to teach at the School and Academy. As for the monstrous prize pool, Vahn had more than 8BV to his name and he rarely had a use for it these days...
Regardless, that wasn't really the matter that was chief amongst Vahn's concerns at the moment since Riveria had sent a missive to the Elven Kingdom to inform her father, the Elven King, that her 'son' had been born. As if there weren't more than a 6,000km distance between the Elven Kingdom and Orario, a small procession had been allowed through the blockade of the Western Forest and had now arrived within the City. This procession was for none other than Riveria's father, Larfal Ljos Alf, supposedly acting as an envoy for peace. To show his sincere desire to bring the ongoing conflict to an end, Larfal had left the Elven Kingdom for the first time, coming to the heart of the Alliance to 'negotiate'. Those in the know, however, knew he had just come to see his daughter and grandson, with a special interest directed towards the latter.
While awaiting the arrival of his father-in-law, Vahn's mind wandered back to two days prior, when Riveria had first gone into labor. With a pained and sickly complexion on her face, she had looked into his eyes and given him permission to use her [Heart's Desire]. They had previously talked about the disconcerting orb in detail and, in order to obtain and Guardian for her son, Riveria had been willing to allow Vahn to peer into her memories. This, ultimately, hadn't been that impactful an event, however, as the only thing waiting for him within her orb was a naked Riveria with a brilliant smile on her face.
As the two watched her memory panes slowly shatter, each filled with fragments of the memories she held dear to her heart, Riveria's Avatar of the Heart recounted the significant events of her past and the hopes she had for the future. Vahn spent what felt like an hour just holding her in his arms as she explained to him to the pain and disappointment she had experienced when being told she wasn't 'suitable' to become Queen. At that time, she had felt so betrayed and lost that she had seriously considered ending her own life, refusing to become the tool for someone else. When she heard about her arranged marriage with Alosrin, however, something inside of her had 'broken'.
Though it might have been a reason for her to follow through with her previous intent, Riveria had instead snapped out of her negative mindset and decided to take a different approach. After fleeing the Kingdom, she wanted to gain enough power and influence within Orario to slowly bring about the change she believed was necessary for her people. She also worked hard to increase her rapport with the Elven people, making it nearly impossible for the Elven Kingdom to even try and force her into action. In truth, she never truly planned to return to her home and intended to simply live out the rest of her days helping change the minds and hearts of the Elves before eventually dying within the Dungeon.
She had never stopped looking for a better solution, but Riveria had fully intended to become a Martyr for her people, which had been the secret she kept in her heart. The reason she became cold and detached from everyone, even though she had genuine care and concern for those she was close to, was so that they wouldn't be burdened by her inevitable death. Even Lefiya, whom she had groomed as her successor in the Loki Familia, was supposed to bear witness to her death in the future. Riveria had hoped it would harden the girl's heart and make her stronger for it by showing that, in the end, with her last and final act, Riveria had been willing to sacrifice herself to protect her comrades and her precious disciple...
When Vahn had awoken from the Heartscape, he had been stunned for a short while but, as Riveria's water had already broken, he didn't exactly have time to think about it. Now, while he was waiting for the arrival of a father that had failed his daughter, Vahn didn't know how he should act. He had an urge to punch Larfal the moment he saw the man but, out of consideration for his wife, Vahn just periodically clenched his teeth to resist the building urge.
In truth, Larfal was also something of a victim in this entire thing, as he had been put on the throne and molded to be the King his people needed. It was the system he headed that was corrupt and, had he not done as was 'required' of him, Riveria would likely have never even been born. He had also lost his wife in the process and, according to Riveria, he spent most of his lonely moments within the Sanctum the errant King had constructed in her memory. His main failure, other than being a terrible father, was that his mentality had simply been too weak to bear the burden of his crown.
Larfal simply lacked the capacity and resolve to bring about the change he had sought in his youth, allowing the power and authority that was supposed to be his to be seized by the other powers within the Elven Kingdom. He had constantly compromised with them until, at the end of everything, he had lost the love of his life, the trust of his daughter, and was now embroiled in an internal conflict that likely wouldn't end well for him and his people. When everything was said and done, it was very likely that Larfal would be dead at the end of everything and, by coming here when there was so much turmoil within his Kingdom, he had essentially sealed his fate.
Vahn could never truly understand why Larfal had made the foolish decisions he had in the past but, after seeing what his own self was capable of in the Divination, Vahn knew some paths did not always lead towards happiness. Had Larfal been stronger, smarter, or wiser, many of the events in his past could have been overcome with enough effort. However, the man, though powerful in his own right, was relatively average in all three categories. He simply hadn't been suited to the role of King and, after losing his wife, this had only become even more evident. Others used that as an opportunity to seize even more power, to the point that he had to betroth his own daughter to an incompetent swine, essentially giving up the mantle of King to another family, even though he had fought so hard to keep it in the hands of his own...simply foolish...
All of that was in the past now, however, as Larfal seemed to have found his resolve and, according to Riveria, was heading unhesitantly towards his death to pave the way for Masonia to take power in the future. Vahn had found it somewhat difficult to believe but, seeing how quickly Larfal had come to 'negotiate' after the birth of his son, it was hard to see things any other way. While he was away from the Kingdom, the other families would obviously move to take the Palace into their own hands and, by the time he returned, the only thing waiting for him would be his death.
Fully expecting this, Larfal had already made plans to prevent the other families from trying to pin his death on the Alliance, making it public that his death was inarguably regicide machinated by the other Noble houses. This would likely lead to a bloodbath within the Elven Kingdom, throwing it into a full-blown civil war since, though Larfal hadn't had the true respect of many of the Noble households, he had been a beloved King from the perspective of his people. The Ljos Alf family was one of the only households that didn't exploit the people, instead, working to better the lives of everyone by supporting businesses and smaller clans. With the enmity most Elves held in their hearts towards some of the High Elf families, the assassination of their beloved King would undoubtedly push them over the edge...
Knowing that, just a few thousand kilometers away, a massacre was about to occur, Vahn couldn't help but lament the foolishness of it all. However, this was a road that the Elven Kingdom had treaded for itself and, though there would undoubtedly be a great many people to lose their lives, the future of the Elven Kingdom would be better for overcoming this trial. As long as the next leader of the Elven people is capable, benevolent, and wise, there will be hope for their recovery. In fact, with Vahn's assistance, the future that awaited them would even allow them to grow beyond the peak of power they held in the distant past, before the disappearance of the last Elven Queen...
With that thought in mind, Vahn watched as the procession arrived in front of his gate and, with Riveria at his side, holding the small Masonia in her arms, they made their forward. For Vahn, this would be the first time he met the man but, for the slightly pale Riveria, this may very well be the last. Even after everything that had happened, Larfal was still her father and, knowing what awaited him upon his return to the Elven Kingdom, she was struggling to maintain her composure...
(A/N: I can hardly believe this is even real life. QI literally blocked/deleted a lot of the most upvoted positive reviews, including my original review. I didn't even give myself 5 stars, honestly explained what the novel was supposed to be about, and they deleted it when it had more than 200 upvotes? Now, the 'most liked' is full of spam and trolls that flamed the novel in the past and used their own alts to upvote the negative reviews. This is one of the scummiest things I've ever experienced and, considering how much traffic I've gotten for QI, I'm honestly disgusted. I'm going to make a new review, so I'd like it if everyone upvoted it, at least until QI decides to fucking pull this shit again.)
