A chat group where you switch bodies with Alicia at the start?

"bell..."

...

Near the underground North Station of Changkong, a raven covered in crow feathers was observing the situation of the underground North Station through the additional function of the Seven Thunders of Purification. Fortunately, this guy was in a good mood today and did not cause any trouble.

Looking at the detection data of the donkey ear shrouded in black mist in the portable scope, even the well-informed Miss Dodo couldn't help but click her tongue in amazement:

"A pseudo-Herrscher has appeared? Where did this come from?"

Unlike normal Herrschers, pseudo-Herrschers are much rarer and often stronger than normal Herrschers, but they are still extremely rare.

It can only be born in a period of collapse.

But Changkong City is currently peaceful, and there seems to be no fertile ground for that donkey ear to be born.

"From this distance, you can't tell what the donkey ears are made of."

The raven couldn't help but complain.

The powers of pseudo-Herrschers are incredibly diverse, and they are not much easier to deal with than Herrschers. If you are not careful, even an S-rank Valkyrie might fall into their hands—yes, I'm talking about you!

As a battle-hardened mercenary, Miss Dodo instinctively wanted to observe remotely to find out what kind of ability the donkey ears were.

Unfortunately, apart from the black mist, nothing could be seen.

"Should we lend a hand...?"

Looking at the man named Jiang Qiao who was confronting Donkey Ears, Raven couldn't help but feel conflicted.

She didn't think this man would be a match for a pseudo-Herrscher, let alone the strange armor that accompanied him.

Logically, her task was only to observe the other party's situation, but the orders from the [Snake] side had already been conveyed to her: after investigating and confirming that there were no problems, she should extend an invitation to the World Snake.

In other words, we can't let that man die like this...

It's true what they say: "The boss has to talk, and the subordinates have to run themselves ragged."

There's not much to say. It's an order from the Lord. What can they, as subordinates, do?

The raven sighed:

"What a hassle. I didn't hear that there was a pseudo-Herrscher in this mission. Remember to make up for my overtime pay!"

She slowly bent down, and a beam of blue-purple light emanated from the Divine Key in her hand.

Through the light spots, the images in her eyes overlapped at this moment, and the entire city unfolded before her like a Rubik's Cube from a higher dimension.

The raven's vision was no longer limited to the physical realm; beyond three-dimensional perception, nothing could hide from her. She could easily lock onto that donkey ear.

—The Key to Judgment. Seven Thunders of Purification.

Designed by Velvi, this is a divine key that is highly characteristic of Velvi.

Targets hit by it will be directly decomposed into basic matter. If only attack power is considered, this Divine Key is no less powerful than the Destruction Key, Judgment of Heavenly Fire.

Just as Raven was about to pull the trigger, she suddenly froze—

Looking at the third party that seemed to have appeared out of nowhere in her field of vision, Miss Dodo was a little confused.

"Where did this person come from?"

This question arose in Raven's mind as he gazed at the pink, beautiful figure, and he felt a strong sense of unease.

She would vaguely feel that something was extremely absurd.

just like--

It was as if the other person was looking at him right now.

What a fuss!

He was observing this place at the moment through the observation function of the Third Divine Key, and it was at least two kilometers away from there.

The other person can see me? They have clairvoyance, right?

Perhaps I was just dizzy and seeing things because I had been traveling for too long, and that's why I was imagining things.

Raven explained her strange feeling in this way, but when she focused her observation on the pink girl who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, intending to observe her further, she realized that this was the girl.

The other party's actions made Miss Dodo's eyes widen.

Then, the pink-clad girl, as beautiful as a flower, smiled and waved at him. Judging from the shape of her mouth as she opened and closed, Raven, with his many years of experience, could tell at a glance.

The other party is clearly saying:

"Hi~"

The distance between them is two kilometers, and in between there are countless layers of ground, layers of soil, and even buildings.

Then, at this distance, the other person noticed that he was being observed, and even greeted him with a smile?

All of these thoughts swirled in Miss Dodo's head, making her mind buzz.

Only one thought remained.

—It seems like I really did encounter a paranormal event.

Chapter Fifty-Nine: Should I say this? Ring, long time no see?

Jiang Qiao?

Upon hearing Alicia's cry for help, Higokumaru burst out laughing.

"Even if you're going to call for help, you should at least use a proper name."

With a hint of sarcasm in her words, Donkey Ears' beautiful face was filled with mockery. "Besides, isn't it a little too late to call for help now?"

"Is it too late? I don't think so."

Suddenly, a girl's energetic voice rang in her ears. That signature voice not only made "Ailili" smile, but even Donkey Ears himself froze on the spot.

But a moment later, she suddenly drew the sharp blade from her waist and turned to slash.

Unfortunately, there was no result.

A pink-clad girl slowly walked over from the side and came into Hiyokumaru's view. Looking at that familiar face, the donkey ears that were originally a little distorted froze.

If the fat lady's expression only made her feel familiar, then when this face belonging to [Alicia] appeared in front of her, Hiyomaru's mind went completely blank.

Fragments of memories surfaced in my mind, and within them, I could vaguely make out the figure of a pink-clad girl.

"I didn't expect that the whiny girl could be controlled so easily. This is indeed something I didn't anticipate."

"But it's not too late to make amends now, is it?"

Looking at her teammates, Alicia's face showed a hint of surprise, but it was quickly replaced by the girl's composure and naturalness.

She turned to look at the frozen figure of Hiyomaru, and slowly revealed a smile that was very characteristic of this body:

"So--"

Should I say this?

"Ring, long time no see?"

The shattered smile reappeared at this moment, and the ominous fog that permeated the entire North Station of Changkong City became disordered, all because of the name uttered by the girl.

--bell.

The twelfth Herrscher, the Herrscher of Erosion, is also Sakura's most important relative and younger sister.

Of course, the girl in front of her, Himeko, was far removed from the short, kind-hearted girl she once was.

It is only a part of the Herald of Erosion.

But in any case, Rinto is indeed a part of Hisagomaru's past and present.

In Jiang Qiao's eyes, as a Primal Lawyer, this was undoubtedly true.

"After a long separation, the first thing you did was stab me. I'm so heartbroken!"

Perhaps it's her natural acting talent, or perhaps she's simply letting the body of [Alicia] run wild. Jiang Qiao, who merely plays the role of unleashing her true nature and adding fuel to the fire, perfectly embodies the charm of a young girl.

Even Alicia herself, who was standing nearby wanting to say something, was a little confused.

Ah this?

What's happening here?

Didn't you call yourself Jiang Qiao to come and fight?

Why are you chatting and greeting each other?

And this one looks very familiar.

So, Jiang Qiao knew that donkey ear?

The fat lady's brain, which wasn't very optimistic in terms of capacity and number of cores, was working at high speed, but then quickly went into a crash state.

Ellie, I don't know anything!

Seeing the increasingly exquisite [Alicia], Alicia, as the original owner, became somewhat withdrawn.
