章節 246: 246. Call Them Up
Kumoko used teleportation and brought everyone out of Keren County. Meanwhile, Ariel was still contemplating what Izumi meant about the reincarnator Potimas was after.
Izumi himself didn't really understand what Potimas was thinking. Most importantly, Potimas realizing the unique status of the reincarnators made him want to utilize the reincarnators for further research, be it for a test subject or something.
However, irregular appearances like Izumi and Kumoko cause Potimas to feel a threat which slows down his research. Either way, as long as they intercept Potimas' plans, nothing good will come of it.
On the other hand, knowing that Izumi was also antagonizing Potimas, Ariel felt it would be better if she was not hostile to him. It would be a pity if she wasted the opportunity to get a powerful ally.
Izumi told Ariel about the people from his world reincarnated to her world one to two years ago. And since Ariel got complete memories from Kumoko, she immediately understood.
Izumi said that he planned to take the reincarnators back to his world.
"But, I still have to erase the unique skill given by that person."
"That person?" Ariel frowned. She had no idea who Izumi was referring to.
"In any case, I need to kill those elves beforehand." And then, Izumi said in his mind. "I need to touch the system core in this world before those reincarnators are manipulated. Those reincarnators are cheaters. And before they grow up and D can manipulate them, I have to erase the broken skill they have."
Ariel touched her chin.
"Hmmm, since we have a common enemy, how about you help me?"
Ariel then talked about the planetary situation that Izumi already knew about. Likewise, the history of how the crisis occurred in the unavoidable war a thousand years ago. She decided to make a plan to become a hero by saving the world from destruction, though she became a demon lord instead.
"Alright. We have a deal." Izumi stretched out his hand.
"Eh, I thought you would refuse."
"Why do you think I will refuse? It's a win-win situation anyway."
Izumi also needed something from her. Although her power wasn't enough to deal with D, at least, she could do something else as a support.
"To be honest, I also need your help."
"Oh, what help do you need from me?"
From Ariel's question, Izumi just looked at Kumoko in response, signaling that he wanted to have a private talk with Ariel.
Izumi didn't explain his plan immediately. Since he knew that Ariel already had memories of Kumoko, he couldn't hide his true identity and said that he came from the same world as Kumoko before her reincarnation.
After explaining that he wanted to seal a god, Ariel was shocked.
"Are you serious? You want to seal that administrator?"
"Hey, you're too loud."
Ariel held her head with her palm, unable to believe that Izumi had gone mad. Ariel herself couldn't even guess how much power Guliedistodiez had which she thought was stronger than she imagined. And D is even stronger than Guliedistodiez.
"If you can't help that's fine too. I'm not going to force you. I still have my friends that I just called, they'll probably be here in a few minutes."
"It's not a matter of whether I want to or not. Do you understand how powerful D is? Even Gulie, who is stronger than me, said that D is stronger than him."
Ariel's face was really serious after hearing Izumi's crazy plan that sounded like suicide.
"I have my own plan. Can you listen to it for a second?"
Although Ariel seriously thought that plan was too dangerous, she didn't seem to back down from Izumi's crazy plan. And then, Izumi told Ariel his plan in detail.

While Izumi was discussing her plan with Ariel, Tabane came first which surprised Kumoko. Kumoko also took a stance to defend.
"Hello hello, everyone's idol, Tabane-chan has come!"
Kumoko was taken aback because Tabane's arrival looked similar to the previous Ariel.
"Why do I have to meet someone with this character again?" Kumoko couldn't help but wonder.
Tabane looked at Izumi who was alone with Ariel and said.
"Arere, Izumi-chan cheated on me? Is he getting interested in a lolita girl?"
Tabane grabbed her chin then turned around and asked Kumoko.
"Kumo-chan, do you know what those two are talking about?"
Kumoko shook her head reflexively at Tabane's question. She wanted to ask something, but she seemed to have forgotten what she wanted to ask.
Not long after, members of the chat group started arriving one by one. Starting from Rori, Kakashi, Hiiro, Warrod, Kuroneko, and Kisame.
Kumoko who saw them commented silently.
"What's with this setup? Two lolita girls, one of them is Japanese, a tree-headed grandpa, a shark-headed man, a ninja, and then a Japanese boy and girl. Why did they come here?"
Kumoko tried to use her skill to check their status but to no avail. In addition, when she checked their status, Rori immediately turned to Kumoko with a smile.
Kumoko stiffened and said inwardly.
"She knew that I peeked at their status even if it failed?"
Kumoko felt that the lolita girl was very dangerous. Just like when she faced Ariel.
Her perception was so accurate. Rori's strength can be said to be more or less the same as Ariel's, especially after Rori has a new ability, Soul Manipulation. It's no wonder Kumoko, who had instincts honed since she was still in the labyrinth, sensed danger from Rori.
Just as Rori looked like she wanted to say something to Kumoko, she suddenly turned around.
She looked at Izumi who started to speak.
"Oh, sorry to keep you waiting so long."
Ariel, the loli girl beside him asked.
"So these are your friends you mentioned?"
Izumi just nodded, then he saw Tabane approaching him while pouting.
"I haven't got an answer from you yet but you're approaching another girl instead."
What Tabane said left the other Chat Group members bemused. What Tabane said seemed to imply that she had confessed her feelings to Izumi.
Kuroneko was the first to respond.
"T-Tabane-chan? The "answer" you meant earlier... Don't tell me..."
It wasn't Tabane who answered, but it was Roti who answered while giggling.
"Isn't it obvious, Neko-chan? She expressed her feelings for him."
"No way. Shouldn't it be the opposite?"
Kuroneko couldn't believe that it was Tabane who acted first. Then she heard Hiiro's voice saying.
"If it's the opposite, then he is too passive."
"I don't want to hear it from you!"
Izumi replied because Hiiro was also not supposed to say that knowing Hiiro was also a passive person when it came to romance.
"Ufufufu. Hiiro, I have a mirror here, don't you want to see it?"
With a chuckle, Rori offered Hiiro a hand mirror. The others burst into laughter as Hiiro swallowed a bomb from what he said. Hiiro could only click his tongue in annoyance due to his unexpected scathing words turned around like a boomerang.
"Well, well. Never mind, let's talk about something else! Besides, aren't we here because we got an emergency message from Izumi-kun?"
Warrod started to change the subject and the rest of the Chat Group members turned to Izumi as they were only told to come. However, it didn't seem as urgent as they thought.
Izumi sighed.
"Okay, I'll tell you everything from the beginning... Let's go over there!"
— — — —
After Izumi told them everything, Rori said,
"Why didn't you tell me? I could have helped you."
Tabane held Izumi's shoulder in fear that he would disappear if he acted rashly again.
"Right, my heart stopped when you said that. You should have told the truth from the start! I will definitely help you as best I can, you know."
Izumi was softened by Tabane's statement that touched his heart. He smiled while replying.
"Sorry! I didn't know her weakness at that time, so I had my doubts."
"Then, does your plan stand a chance this time after knowing her weakness?" This time it was Kisame who commented.
"Not sure, but at least I have a 50% chance of success."
"That's quite high as your enemy is at the god level. Then, when do we start to act?"
Although Izumi's plan was quite crazy, Kisame was excited about the plan to defeat a god.
"Not now. I need to do something else first. I need a month at the very least."
One month means only 3 days will pass in their world.
"Ehhh, I have school."
Kuroneko complained that she would be skipping school for three days. Izumi added.
"Actually, I want you to skip school for a week, Kuroneko."
"Why? Isn't 30 days the same as 3 days in my world? Why is it a week?"
"Because I need at least another 4 days to take the pure energy source."
"Pure energy source?"
Everyone who heard Izumi's words was confused about the source he was referring to.
Izumi smiled and replied.
"That's the ley line. In other words, dragon vein."
