I just hope to live a leisurely life in the world of anime.

The sun has come out!

"An Shu-kun?!" Rentaro finally couldn't control his voice. Could this be a coincidence? He didn't believe it!

"Ahem!" An Shu coughed lightly, feeling somewhat helpless. These days, even pretending to be something you're not is not easy. He had to slip away quickly, otherwise, if all the rules of this world were to bind him, he would lose half his life.

With a wave of her hand, An Shu's face turned a little pale. "Well... Rijma-kun, although we haven't known each other for long, only a little over a year, you are indeed a good friend."

“An Shujun? What do you mean by that? You…”

"I hope I'll have a chance to come back! Goodbye! Miori, Hitomi-chan, come here!"

"Mmm!" they both responded, and then went over and hugged An Shu tightly.

The blue light grew stronger and stronger. It was a very soft color, but for some reason, it almost made Rentaro unable to open his eyes.

"An Shujun!"

"Rima-kun, farewell, see you next time!"

call out--

Centered on An Shu and the other two, a huge blue beam of light shot into the sky, striking the heavens. In mid-air, a small path split off and flew towards the direction of the No. 32 megalith.

After about half an hour, the beam of light slowly diminished and finally disappeared without a trace.

If An Shu and the other two hadn't disappeared, it would have been as if nothing had happened.

Outside the No. 32 megalith, more than 200 Gastrea led by Aldebaran cried out at the same time until they collapsed and died.

On the eaves of Sima's residence, a young man, soaked to the bone, suddenly felt a sense of loneliness, an empty and unpleasant feeling.

After standing there for a long time, he finally shook his head.

"An Shu-kun, Xiao Tong, and Wei Zhi-kun, I hope to see you again next time!"

Chapter Fifty-Seven: A New Journey

("La-la, la-la-")

In a vast, seemingly uninhabited primeval forest, a girl dressed in a kimono, who looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old, ran while carrying a little girl.

It stopped to the left and looked to the right, seemingly full of curiosity about everything.

"Slow down, don't fall!" An Shu, carrying a red backpack, followed behind the two.

"call--"

After running for a while, perhaps tired, they stopped and leaned against a big tree together with the little girl. "Brother Anshu, what is this world like?"

An Shu first walked over, took out a tissue from her bag, and gently wiped the fine sweat from the little girl's forehead before answering, "I don't know either... but there is magic in this world!"

As he spoke, he demonstrated to the two of them, snapping his fingers and a wisp of flame leaping from his fingertip.

"Magic? Does it really exist?" Both girls craned their necks forward, looking quite surprised.

"Of course! But I think the technology in this world is probably not advanced, or even rather backward."

After all, there are gains and losses.

"Huh?" The two girls didn't care about any of that; they were more interested in the novelty of magic.

"Can I learn with Sister Weizhi?" the little girl asked, looking eager to try.

"Um...no..."

"Ah..." They all sighed with slight disappointment.

“However…” At this moment, An Shu’s tone changed, and she suddenly hugged the two of them tightly. Faint blue light spots began to gather around them, and even in the middle of the day, they did not appear dim.

"Cough cough!" An Shu coughed twice more after the light dissipated, then patted the two girls' heads. "You can do it now!"

Sima Weizhi patted his back tenderly, feeling somewhat guilty, "Brother Anshu, you don't have to do this!"

"Hmm..." The little girl didn't say anything, but just hugged him and rubbed against him.

"It's okay!" After eating a piece of candy the little girl offered, An Shu patted the two of them on the head again. "Did you feel it?"

"Feeling? What is that?"

"There seems to be something strange in the air?" An Tong tilted her head, puzzled.

"That's magic! Try drawing the magic to your fingertips and snapping your fingers."

"Click—" The puzzled little girl did as instructed, and as expected, a wisp of flame danced on her fingertips.

"Ah!" She was startled and quickly waved her hand to extinguish the flames.

"Hmm..." The little girl puffed out her cheeks. She didn't know how to snap her fingers, so she helplessly stretched out her short arms and waved them haphazardly, but unexpectedly a strong wind suddenly arose.

"Wow! Is this wind magic? What other kinds of magic are there?"

"Yes! There are many types of magic, but this world seems to be limited to only six common attributes."

"what?"

"Wind, Water, Earth, Fire, Yin, Yang."

"Oh!" The little girl nodded, seemingly understanding. "Then, Brother Anshu, what other attributes do you think there are?"

"There are also many interesting and unique mutation attributes, such as time, space, and so on..."

Speaking of which, the Yin-based magic of this world is quite interesting, encompassing both spatial and temporal systems, though it's only scratching the surface.

"What does it look like?" the little girl asked curiously.

"Let me give you some space, for example..."

click -

An Shu looked at the big tree not far away, snapped his fingers, and the air seemed to convulse violently for a moment.

Immediately, a strong suction force erupted from a certain point, engulfing the surrounding objects.

At its center, it has already begun to collapse, as if it is forming a small black hole.

Just then, a black figure darted out and flew into the sky, only to find that no matter how hard it tried, it could not leave that area and was gradually being pulled closer to the black hole.

"Miss! I mean no harm!" A sharp voice suddenly rang out, calling out to An Shu, seemingly anxious.

Although he didn't know how it was formed, he understood that if he went inside, he would definitely not have a good ending!

"Oh? Don't tell me you just arrived? By the way, I'm a man." An Shu replied indifferently, seemingly unmoved.

"Sir! This is a misunderstanding! I am Roswaal L. Mezas, the border count of the Kingdom of Lugnica. I just happened to be passing by and overheard you talking about magic, so I listened in. I had absolutely no ill intentions!"

"Roswaal? Lugnica?" The name sounded familiar. An Shu shook his head, thought for a moment, and then suddenly realized.

Is this the Re:Zero world?!

Do you know a demon girl named Ram?

"A hornless demon? Everyone should have heard of the genius of the demon race!"

"A hornless demon?" It seems the story hasn't even started yet?

"Do you know a boy named Natsuki Subaru?"

Seeing Roswaal on the verge of collapse, An Shu asked a question while stopping the tearing of space.

"I don't know him!"

Feeling the suction on his back disappear, he subconsciously relaxed his body, forgetting that he was still in mid-air, and fell straight down, looking somewhat disheveled. The two girls could see the makeup on each other's faces.

"Wow, Hitomi-chan, are all the people in this other world this ugly?" Sima Miori whispered, nibbling on the loli's ear.

"How terrifying..."

"Don't be afraid, I'll hug you! Sister Weizhi is here." Uninterested in what was happening in front of her, the little girl hugged the loli in her arms, and gently pinched her waist with one hand.

"Mmm..." An Tong said shyly, and hugged her tightly.

"You two! There are outsiders here!"

"Hmph! Brother Anshu, make him leave! I'm hungry! Let's eat!"

"Alright, alright, my dear little ancestor!" Shaking her head helplessly, An Shu turned around and called out to the man with a dark expression, "Count Roswaal, if you have some free time now, could you come over here and have a chat with me?"

"Okay." He hesitated for a moment, then agreed. Just because of that magic spell, he was quite interested in An Shu!

###Unexplained Thoughts ovo###

(The first volume is now finished.)

Hmm, how should I put it...

I'm actually quite surprised that I was able to stick with it, considering I initially just wanted to have some fun with it. lol

I also want to thank several readers: Meteor, Sky Blue, Moyu, kokia, Fox White, and Kongxue (I think it's also Moyu?), as well as those who voted for the book. Hmm, I don't know if some of my original friends are still around; they've probably all left.

He shrugged helplessly.

I've taken all your recommendations to heart, but I'm a bit slow on the uptake and don't know how to express my gratitude.

I'm just a lazy bum with no ambition, but seeing my collection and recommendation votes increase by one or two votes every day makes me quite happy, lol.

There's not much to say, it's just that writing a reflection makes me feel really sophisticated, hehe~

Um, if any of you are reading this, could you please give it a review, even just criticism? At least it would point out some shortcomings and prevent the book from feeling deserted, right? ovo

I'm making a promise: as long as there's even one person reading this, I'll keep writing this book, and it'll reach at least 70 words! ovo

Also, I was so busy yesterday that I forgot, so it might be a bit late today, but I'll still make it up to you all. Happy Lantern Festival! ovo
