Crossover Anime: A Dimensional Journey Starting with Frilian

"Because my sister is really amazing, if it weren't for..."

"There are no 'ifs,' you are simply better than your sister right now."

"...Don't say things like that anymore." Rem suddenly became cold and slapped his hand away.

"Alright, alright, sigh, you're practically possessed by a ghost, you're so blindly devoted to your sister." Shi Chen shook his head and sighed.

Possessed by a ghost?

"It's like you've been possessed by your sister, and all you can think about is how powerful she is."

"Your older sister is already very powerful... Do you like ghosts?"

"Why do you ask so suddenly?"

"You just mentioned possession by a ghost..."

"I see. Let me think... I guess I like ghosts."

"why?"

"Why so many whys? I just like it. If it's a ghost, I'd like it even more. I'd love it even more if it were a pretty girl, preferably as cute as Rem."

"Is that so..." Rem's lips curled up slightly.

Upon arriving at Aram Village, Rem disregarded the time and went to collect ingredients.

Shichen wandered around the village alone.

There aren't many young people in the village; it's mostly elderly people and children. The children are a bit noisy and quite bold; as soon as they see the time, they swarm towards him.

When he was bored and waiting for Rem, he had them gather around him and tell them stories.

Children, whether boys or girls, all love to listen to stories.

Shi Chen chose the story of Little Red Riding Hood, hoping to scare these little kids, but unfortunately, he didn't frighten them at all.

"Big brother, big brother, is there another story?"

"We want to hear more!"

"Big brother~"

"Alright, alright, I'll tell you another one then." Shi Chen couldn't help but soften when he saw a little girl pleading.

"Great!"

"Big brother, tell me quickly."

"Quiet down, everyone. Next, I'm going to tell you the story of the Calabash Brothers saving their grandfather. A long, long time ago..."

"Ah! Big brother, wait a minute!"

Just then, a childish voice interrupted Shichen's words. The owner of the voice—a girl with braids—ran out and hugged something that had run into the village.

It is a creature with brown fur and a puppy-like appearance.

It looks like a puppy that has just been born, with round eyes and soft fur, and is very cute.

"Big brother, isn't it cute?" The little girl walked over holding the puppy.

"They are indeed very cute..."

"Hoo-ga! Buzz—"

Surprisingly, the puppy didn't have a good attitude towards Shichen and growled at him.

"This is the first time I've encountered a situation like this," Shi Chen said, staring at the puppy and laughing.

His pure and innocent nature makes him very attractive to living beings, unless they are negative or evil.

The puppy didn't look like an evil being, but it stared at the time and raised all the fur on its body in a menacing manner.

The children were all surprised.

"what happened?"

"She's usually very well-behaved."

"I only get angry at my older brother."

"Big brother, what did you do?"

"Maybe it doesn't want me to tell you stories," Shi Chen said with a chuckle.

"How can it be!"

"Then I don't like it anymore."

"Exactly, nothing is as interesting as a story."

"How can you say that? Puppies are so cute, why don't you like them...?"

"But it doesn't like the older brother. What if the older brother doesn't want to tell us stories anymore?"

"this......"

"Haha, it's not that exaggerated. How could I stop telling you stories just because of this little dog?"

"That's good!"

"Great!"

"And I have a way of making it like me... come a little closer."

"Big brother, what are you going to do?" The girl with the braids approached Shichen while holding a puppy.

Shi Chen smiled kindly and reached out to touch the puppy. Unexpectedly, it lowered its head, as if it had let down its guard.

Shi Chen touched its head; it was warm and soft. Then he touched its neck and body; the fluffy texture was indeed pleasant.

However, the puppy has a round, cross-shaped bald spot on its head, which doesn't look like a wound.

"Roar--"

Just as Shi Chen was stroking that area, the puppy suddenly opened its mouth and bit Shi Chen's hand.

"That won't do." Shi Chen easily dodged and continued patting its head.

"Roar?"

The puppy was clearly stunned for a moment; it didn't even know how the time had been avoided.

"Be good, okay? Otherwise, I won't be so polite." Shi Chen smiled kindly as he looked into the puppy's eyes.

"Roar!"

However, the puppy came to its senses and continued to growl at him.

“No way.”

"Big brother, you touched me too much."

"Yes, this child is female."

"A female? I can't even bring myself to do it," Shi Chen said.

"Sorry to keep you waiting." At that moment, Rem walked over carrying two large baskets.

The two large baskets were almost as tall as Rem herself, but she carried them without any problem.

"Buying so many?" Shi Chen released the puppy that kept trying to bite him, got up and walked towards Rem.

“This is usually all I buy,” Rem replied calmly.

"Here... give it to me."

"What?" Rem didn't understand at first.

"I'll hold it for you."

Without a word, Shichen snatched the basket from her hands and put it into the King's Treasury.

"Huh? Where's the stuff?" Rem stared wide-eyed in surprise.

"This is my shooting star; it can store things," Shi Chen explained with a smile.

"Meteor" is what this world calls magical items.

"Are there still shooting stars like this...?" Rem exclaimed.

"Amazing!"

“How did you do that!”

"Give us another performance!"

The children excitedly gathered around, including the braided girl holding the puppy.

"I can't go on like this~ My maid and I have to go back," Shichen replied.

"Hey——Why is that?"

"Isn't that too fast?"

"The story of the Calabash Brothers hasn't even been told yet..."

"We'll talk about it next time... What do you want to do?" Shichen grabbed the puppy that was trying to bite Rem, his tone even a little cold.

"Roar—!" the puppy growled, as if unwilling to give up.

"That won't do~ You can't bite my Rem, you know?" Shichen patted its head and warned.

"Yours?" Rem looked calmly at Shichen.

"Yes, it was bound to happen sooner or later."

"..." Rem remained silent, pursing her lips.

"Alright, we'll head back now. We'll tell you stories next time we come, okay?"

"It was a promise~"

"Goodbye, big brother~"

Toki and Rem left Aram Village and headed towards the mansion, but halfway there, Toki stopped and grabbed Rem's wrist.

"Time? What's wrong?"
