Infinite Anime Strategy Guide

"Just a friendly reminder, the final mission in the 'Shakugan no Shana' world requires you to personally kill the Seven Sins. But that girl ended up committing suicide. Remember the punishment for failing the mission? Hehe!"

"How dare you treat me like a child? If I don't screw you over, who will I screw over?"

With a strong sense of foreboding, Lin Yu was swallowed by the black hole beneath his feet...

Want to know the penalty for failing the mission? Check out the description!

[The punishment is only temporary, and only in this world. I hope everyone can accept it. I don't plan to write the death-and-death situation like in the original work. The early part will only cover up to the royal selection, and I will come back to write more details as the main story unfolds. The overall focus will be on humorous slice-of-life scenes, and there won't be too much battle. I hope you enjoy it!]

There will be another update tonight, which will probably be quite late, but I'll try to keep it past midnight.

067. That's it? That's all!

[This is an extra chapter for 'Palely Rendered Sorrow'. Last time I mentioned that I was going to cancel the extra chapter event for donations, he immediately became the leader without saying a word. His generosity is terrifying.]

[Thank you '星絔' for the generous donation!]

A figure suddenly appeared in the secluded alley.

"Mission failed? What the hell? I put in so much effort and it's considered a mission failure? That's so inhumane!"

Lin Yu lowered his head, feeling as if he were about to cry, his long, smooth hair cascading down his sides.

"Wait, wait a minute."

As if suddenly remembering something, Lin Yu trembled slightly as he picked up his drooping hair.

"It seems so." Lin Yu's eye twitched slightly. "I don't think I have a habit of keeping my hair long, do I?"

"Could it be... no way?"

Lin Yu chuckled twice, but his smile quickly froze. His stiff lips twitched, and his legs suddenly began to shake uncontrollably.

"For example, if I remember correctly."

Gurgle.

Lin Yu swallowed hard, his hand trembling as he reached between his legs. His heart was pounding like a drum, but when he felt nothing in his hand, his heart suddenly stopped beating rapidly.

"It's gone? It's gone! It's gone? It's gone..."

Unable to accept the blow, Lin Yu stood there like a madman, muttering the same two words over and over again, only with a slightly different tone.

"Oh dear, Xiaoyu, you should just accept reality, pfft!"

Gaia, who had transformed back into her fairy form, burst out laughing halfway through her sentence. She quickly covered her mouth with both hands, her small body curling up in pain—she had been holding it in!

"It's okay, Xiaoyu looks very pretty right now! Look." Alaya flew in front of Lin Yu and casually waved her hand to create a water mirror. Lin Yu subconsciously looked at the mirror and saw a stunningly beautiful girl with long, smooth black hair looking dazed. She would definitely turn heads on the street. The only drawback might be that her chest was a bit too flat.

"Isn't it beautiful!" Alaya patted Lin Yu's shoulder with a reassuring expression.

The pretty 'girl' stiffly turned her head to meet Alaya's gaze, while the latter turned her head away somewhat guiltily.

Finally recovering from the shock, Lin Yu jumped up and, without any regard for her image, threw her head back and shouted, "Gaia! Alaya! I'm not done with you!"

After shouting, Lin Yu swiftly reached out to grab the two culprits flying in mid-air, but they were prepared and narrowly dodged it.

"Stop hiding! Let me kill you all first, then I'll kill myself. This world is full of malice, and living in it is a painful experience. Let me free you from this suffering!"

Lin Yu's face was full of intoxicating smiles, well, if one could ignore the thick black aura behind her (♀) that was as thick as ink.

"Don't be impulsive, impulsiveness is the devil!"

Gaia offered a cautious, apologetic smile, but was completely ignored by the person in question.

"So living is too tragic, it's better to die."

Lin Yu's words revealed a despair for the world; as for the idea of ​​turning someone into a woman, he thought it would be better to just let her die.

"But it was clearly Xiaoyu who failed to complete the task, so how can you blame us?"

Alaya's words instantly crushed Lin Yu, who could have ignored the problem, leaving him with a look of utter despair.

"Xiaoyu, you have to think about it! Your body pillow is still waiting for you in another world. If you die like this, you'll never see her again!"

Seeing that Lin Yu seemed to have calmed down, Gaia quickly offered some words of comfort.

"Shana... will I ever see Shana again?"

Lin Yu looked at Gaia with a hopeful expression on her stunningly beautiful (no doubt) face.

"Of course!"

Gaia spoke with absolute certainty, nodding her head vigorously, as if afraid Lin Yu wouldn't be able to handle it and would continue to hunt her down.

"But I still really want to die."

Lin Yu, with her eyes veiled in mist, looked pitiful, like a beautiful girl who had been violated by a beast and was now in despair. Cough cough, remember to cut this part out, don't speak such blunt truths.

"Think positively, think positively. It's just this world. Once you complete the mission, you'll be back to normal soon. Look, we even brought your weapons with us."

Intentionally trying to divert Lin Yu's attention, Gaia even abused her power by taking the vampire that was originally placed in Shana's hat.

A two-handed greatsword with beautiful patterns suddenly appeared in front of Lin Yu and crashed down with a loud bang. This sword was so heavy that it would take several adults to lift it, weighing at least several hundred pounds. It fell from half a meter off the ground and stuck directly into the ground.

"Vampires, oh, I almost forgot about them."

Lin Yu hadn't forgotten that her Ice Flame was unusable due to the Seven Sins' curse, and she would only go crazy to experience that feeling of being worse than dead again.

After pulling the vampire out, Gaia did something unusual: she tied a strap around it so Lin Yu could carry it on his back. Otherwise, it would be inconvenient to carry it around like that.

With a sigh, Lin Yu finally accepted his fate of being gender-modified.

"Anyway, it's just one world. No one knows about it except for myself and those two little ones. Ordinary people can't see them, so we can rule out the possibility of leaks. Otherwise, it's better to nip it in the bud."

Lin Yu stroked his chin, glanced at the two little ones, and nodded in relief.

Gaia and Alaya would probably be very relieved to know that Lin Yu escaped disaster because they couldn't leak the secret.

I'm so glad I didn't tell Lin Yu and the others that they could actually show themselves on their own...

"So, what kind of world is this?"

Having reluctantly accepted reality, Lin Yu just wanted to finish the mission as soon as possible and return to his male form. Being feminized was something everyone would find amusing when it happened to others, but to actually do it to himself…

Lin Yu just wanted to say that the emptiness between his legs made him want to die...

"This is 'Re:Zero -Starting Life in Another World-'!"

Seeing that Gaia, having escaped the life-threatening crisis, immediately regained her energetic appearance and excitedly raised her small hands to say the name of this world.

"Huh? The world where the beluga whales live?"

Lin Yu didn't know much about this world, but there was at least one title he was very clear about.

"Isn't this the anime with the most tragic male protagonist in history? I skipped through parts of it back then!"

Lin Yu suddenly regretted it, because the plot of this anime was really terrible. He had skipped a lot of it, and apart from the beginning and the battle with the white whale, he knew nothing about the rest.

"Well, let's just take it one step at a time. What's my first task?"

Lin Yu sighed and asked casually.

"It's about entering the manor and becoming a glorious maid!"

Gaia spoke to Lin Yu in her usual energetic voice.

"Sorry, I didn't hear you clearly. Could you repeat it?" Lin Yu's lips twitched slightly, but he quickly broke into a bright, sunny smile that was absolutely captivating: "You want me to become your butler? I understand, no problem!"

"Seriously, Xiaoyu, stop running away from reality!"

Gaia's little face puffed up slightly.

"It's a maid! A maid! How can you let a girl be a housekeeper?"

Girls...girls...girls...

Gaia's words instantly dealt Lin Yu a critical hit, a million times worse than expected. Feeling as if he had been shot in the knee, Lin Yu stopped smiling and kept banging his head against the wall. It seemed that it would be a little difficult for her to accept the fact that he had become a girl in a short time.

Just as Lin Yu was harming himself, a weak voice suddenly rang out.

"Um, are you alright?"

Turning his head, he saw a beautiful girl with long, silver-white hair looking at Lin Yu with some concern at the entrance of the alley...

[Sorry, this chapter is the beginning. I didn't have any drafts and needed to think things through before I could start writing. I revised it several times, so the update is late.]

[To reiterate, this is just a story about moe characters in one world, and Re:Zero isn't planned to be too long; it only goes up to the Royal Selection! I hope those who don't like moe characters can bear with it. Thank you!]

068. First Encounter with Emilia

[Thanks to '萌就是正义00' for the donation!]

"Although I do have something to do, I know you're definitely misinterpreting things."

Lin Yu wore a bitter expression as he sized up the beautiful girl he was seeing in real life for the first time. Hmm, she looked even prettier in person than in the anime.

"Even though I don't know what happened, there's no need to hurt yourself like this, right? You're so cute."

With long silver hair, slightly pointed ears, and blue-purple eyes, Emilia, the heroine of this world, appeared before Lin Yu. She was a silver-haired half-elf with mixed blood!

Emilia, somewhat confused, revealed the truth, and Lin Yu immediately felt his fragile little heart wounded even more deeply.

"If possible, please don't use 'cute' to describe me."

Even though he couldn't see his expression, Lin Yu was certain that his face looked no better than if he were crying.

"Huh? Why?"

Emilia tilted her head in confusion. In her opinion, the girl in front of her, carrying a large sword and wearing strange clothes, was actually quite cute.

"Look, how can I describe him as cute? If I had to say anything, I'd say he's handsome, right?"

Lin Yu slightly opened his arms, showing off his tall and straight figure. It has to be said that he was wearing a boy's school uniform from the world of "Shakugan no Shana". It looks similar to a Zhongshan suit. Even on the current female version of Lin Yu, it looks quite heroic. With the giant sword on his back, he is definitely a beautiful woman in men's clothing.

Well, if I had to pinpoint the most important factor, it would probably be the flat chest.

"Yeah, that does sound really cool."

Emilia smiled with relief when she saw that Lin Yu didn't seem to have the urge to keep banging his head against the wall. Having read the original novel, Lin Yu knew very well how kind this seemingly hypocritical girl was. Moreover, judging from the fact that she came to such a secluded alley, perhaps the important medal related to the royal selection had already been stolen.

"Right!" Lin Yu nodded in satisfaction: "As expected, even if you're gender-swapped, it won't affect your overall charm."

He spoke the second half of the sentence quite quietly, so Emilia probably didn't hear it.

"Why did you come to such a secluded alley? What if you run into bad guys?"

To confirm where the story was at, Lin Yu tentatively asked.
