Crossover Anime: A Dimensional Journey Starting with Frilian

Regardless, all five were indeed very beautiful girls, and even though Priscilla was a widow, she had never been touched.

"...Speaking of which, why is there a half-elf among the candidates? Are the people reviewing them crazy?"

Suddenly, someone said something that sounded disgusted, and the others started to echo it.

"Why is this half-elf named Emilia also one of the candidates for king?"

What are people in high positions really thinking?

"..."

Shichen felt Emilia tighten her grip on her hand.

She will still care.

"Emilia," Shichen whispered her name.

"Shichen... I'm fine." Emilia forced a smile and shook her head.

"I don't know you yet?"

Shi Chen smiled helplessly, then pulled her along and walked towards the front of the crowd.

"Huh? Shichen, you...?"

"Everyone, look this way."

Upon reaching the crowd, Shi Chen shouted loudly to draw everyone's attention.

"that is......"

"Half elf..."

"Half......"

"Okay, shut up."

Before the crowd could even utter that vile name, Shichen silenced them, freezing the space in place and preventing anyone from leaving.

Chapter 522 Emilia is Mine

"..."

Everyone discovered that they could no longer move; apart from their thoughts, no part of their body was under their control.

Bang bang bang~

"Don't be afraid, everyone. I won't do anything to hurt you." Shi Chen clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention back.

No one wanted to believe him, but there was nothing they could do but watch him silently.

"Everyone, don't look at me, look at her." Shi Chen gestured for everyone to look at Emilia.

Emilia stood seriously beside Shichen, not knowing what he wanted to do, and could only cooperate silently.

At least, she knew that Shichen wouldn't do anything to harm her.

"I believe everyone has already recognized her. That's right, she is Emilia, one of the five candidates for king."

"..."

No one could say a word; they could only stare at him blankly.

Shichen didn't want them to talk anyway; they should just be quiet spectators and listeners.

“I know what you’re thinking. Emilia is a silver-haired half-elf, just like the legendary Witch of Envy, so you’re afraid of her and don’t understand why she’s one of the candidates for king.”

In people's minds, the Witch of Envy is an extraordinary monster. Four hundred years ago, half of the continent was shrouded in the shadow of the witch. Many famous heroes and dragons fell before her. If it weren't for the power of the dragon gods, the knowledge of the sages, and the presence of the sword saint at that time, this world would have perished long ago.

Moreover, almost no one knows the true face of the Witch of Envy who has committed so many evil deeds. Due to the language barrier and inability to communicate, she seems to hate everything in the world, and wreaks havoc and destruction wherever she goes.

The story of the witch has been passed down through various forms, including written and oral traditions. The process may differ, but the outcome remains the same: a terrifying influence that is firmly planted in the hearts of people in this world.

Just because they look alike isn't enough to make people avoid them. The main problem is that every half-elf witch people know is an eccentric and eccentric individual.

Half-elves are scary enough, let alone silver-haired half-elves.

"Now, she's right here. Look at her carefully, look at her lovely face, look at her beautiful figure. Do you think she's scary?"

“Time…” Emilia said to him shyly.

Her shy demeanor caught everyone's attention.

With the reminder of the time, they realized that Emilia was indeed cute and beautiful. Apart from her somewhat striking appearance, her demeanor and behavior were those of a normal girl.

She was nothing like the eccentric witch described in the rumors.

Of course, this is also because they can't do anything else and can only think based on the prompts of the time.

Normally, they would have run away long ago, and wouldn't have bothered to properly examine Emilia.

"Beautiful silver hair, delicate features, a lovely face, and a captivating figure—do you really think she's some kind of terrifying person?" Shi Chen continued to ask.

“Time…” Emilia blushed at the mention of time.

Everyone found her even cuter when she was shy.

The witch seems... aside from the rumors being a bit scary, she's not so bad, she's quite cute.

"Isn't it not scary at all? It's actually cute?" Shi Chen asked.

The group remained unable to move, but their eyes seemed to indicate agreement.

"So what do you have to be afraid of her for? She's right here, and there's nothing you can do about it. She has absolutely no intention of harming you. Do you really need to be afraid of her?"

Everyone suddenly nodded subconsciously.

Shichen had secretly loosened his restraints on them, but he still kept this space under control.

"Besides, she's so cute, it doesn't seem like it would be a big deal if she hurt me a little, right?"

"Time..."

"Mmm!" The crowd responded unconsciously, but they were completely unaware that they were now free to move around.

"Huh?" Emilia looked at everyone strangely.

"To be honest, even though you don't know the inside story, you do know that becoming a king's candidate isn't something you can just decide to do. Emilia was simply chosen..."

Shi Chen paused for a moment, and seeing that everyone was listening attentively, he continued, "However, despite this, Emilia is still willing to participate in the royal selection. You know, she is well aware of the inconveniences caused by her appearance, as you all probably know, right?"

"Know!"

“Very well, then why does she still participate? It’s not because she wants to be king, but because she feels that since she is qualified, she has a responsibility to participate and be responsible for everyone.”

"Take responsibility for us?"

"That's right!"

The timing was satisfactory; someone actually cooperated.

“This country currently has no king and needs one. The five candidates will be the future kings. Since she has a chance, of course she should get involved. If she becomes the future king, she will definitely have to take responsibility.”

"So that's it..."

"Being a king or anything like that doesn't matter to her. She just wants to become that king, if possible, to relieve everyone's worries."

"So...so magnificent!"

"Moreover, Emilia has only one requirement for becoming a candidate, and that is fairness."

"Fair?" someone asked, puzzled.

“Yes, it’s fair.” Shi Chen nodded.

"Amelia's appearance makes the path to becoming a candidate difficult, but she only hopes that everyone can put aside their prejudices and treat her equally."

"It's actually like this..."

“You all know that Emilia is a witch. Since she is a witch, her strength goes without saying. But she disdains to change everyone's prejudices with force. Don't you think she is very powerful?”

"so amazing!"

Have we been misunderstanding the witch all along?

"There might not be a misunderstanding, but Emilia could be different."

"Yes, since he's a candidate for king, he must be a good person."

"agree......"

Shi Chen listened to the crowd's discussion with satisfaction. These people were really good at manipulating people.

However, it is precisely because of her skill in manipulation that the rumors about her being a witch are so deeply ingrained.

Fortunately, his prediction was correct, and he was able to force them to accept Emilia positively and stop being prejudiced against her appearance.

Of course, it's unlikely to be as effective as expected, but as long as it has some effect, that's fine. As long as they realize that Emilia is just a cute girl, and although she is a witch, she is not the kind of person that everyone generally believes her to be, behaving strangely and capable of harming people.

This is enough.

“Time…” Emilia looked at the time, lost in thought.

She never expected that people's opinions of her would change so easily.

This is something she has always wanted to do.

Sure enough, Shi Chen did things for her own good.

The happiness that filled her heart made her want to rush into Shichen's arms and be held by him, but now was not the time.

"Say a few words," Shi Chen patted her shoulder.

"it is good."

Emilia's eyes were resolute. She took a deep breath and looked at everyone.

People no longer feel any resistance or disgust towards her.

"My name is Emilia, just Emilia. It's not that I'm jealous of beautiful women, but I am indeed a witch, but..."

Emilia paused for a moment, then smiled mischievously: "I am a good witch."

"cute......"

"So cute."
