And this image is likely to be subconsciously and infinitely idealized by the person involved, therefore...

'Anima' still corresponds to the absolutely perfect female image in men's minds.

In contrast, 'Animus' represents the ideal male figure in the minds of women.

It is said that, under normal circumstances, if a person encounters a real person in reality who is very close to their ideal 'Anima' or 'Animus', they will be completely attracted to them.

Before his transmigration, Ling Shu had come into contact with psychological concepts related to this topic.

For some reason, he suddenly thought of this.

and……

"Ah~ Animus and Anima!"

Having been exposed to too many fantasy stories, he subconsciously recalled many fragmented settings from his memories.

For example: the following incantation—

【Stars; Cosmos; Gods; Animus】

[Antrum (the celestial body is emptiness); Unversed (emptiness is void); Anima, Animsphere (the void is where God resides)]

The above incantation is a chant originating from the Animusfia family, a family of celestial magicians, in the Type-Moon universe.

Ling Shu had heard about it in a PV used to promote Lostbelt Universe when he lived on his home planet Earth before his transmigration.

And it was in that PV that, after the chant ended, the one who immediately recited the opening remarks was the one who called himself...

"!"

Ling Shu (Kong) was suddenly taken aback.

Just a moment ago, he only thought of these incantations in his mind, without even chanting them aloud...

Some things have quietly changed.

Almost at the same time...

"Ok?"

Hedin, who was engaged in a 'baptism' battle with Ying not far away, was also suddenly startled.

Because, just a moment ago... in that extremely brief instant...

He suddenly sensed an incredibly strong sense of crisis.

It was a fear that transcended the levels of life, a fear that looked down upon all living beings from the 'highest' perspective... seemingly originating from the very bloodline, the most primal fear.

This phenomenon should only occur when the gods unleash their divine power.

But just now, the source of all this was actually that blonde, golden-eyed girl in a white dress.

It was precisely because of this sudden and brief, minor change...

"Pfft~"

"Ugh?"

Hedin, who had previously been able to fight Ying to a standstill and even had the upper hand, suddenly reacted a beat too slow and was directly hit by a 'Sky-Splitting Wind'.

Distracted by the unexpected turn of events, a horrifying bloodstain appeared on his chest, running from his left shoulder to the right side of his abdomen.

Faced with this unexpected situation, both parties were utterly astonished.

Hedin was still puzzled by the inexplicable 'sense of oppression' he had just experienced.

As for Ying... she didn't seem to notice the slight change that had occurred just moments before.

They were simply surprised by Hedin's 'mistake'.

Similarly, when Ling Shu (Kong) wasn't paying particular attention...

Finally, the 'password' is correct!

The 'Genshin Impact System', which is completely bound to its main body, now has a different response than the previous 'notification sound'.

It seems to have become more lively and vibrant.

It speaks silently:

[Oh dear, after waiting so long, he can finally use the power of the 'World Bubble' itself.]

******

A dozen minutes later...

The location was inside the tent used by the Freya Familia members.

At this moment, Mr. Hedin had just changed out of his torn clothes and sat on a wooden chair without saying a word.

Of course, his injuries had already been quickly healed by Diona and Barbara.

Perhaps to avoid unnecessary subsequent conflicts, Riveria and the others who were originally watching the battle with the Four Flame Warriors returned to their tents after exchanging a few brief inquiries about the situation.

Currently, inside the camp, there are only six officers: the 'Black and White Twin Swords', the 'Four Flame Gold Warriors', and the 'Star Twins'.

No one expected that today's 'baptism' struggle would end so hastily.

However, it is worth mentioning that, in the eyes of outsiders, this was actually a very intense battle.

After all, before the final 'accident' occurred, not only Hedin and Ying, but also Ling Shu (Kong) and Hegni had caused quite a stir.

Especially the first two, those were truly high-intensity magical battles.

The rapid attacks, dodges, and sword duels were dazzling.

To understand just how intense the battle was, one only needs to go outside the military camp and look at the chaotic terrain to get a sense of the situation.

Sure enough, many soldiers belonging to the Kingdom of Lachia are now discussing that the adventurers of Orario are more monstrous than monsters themselves.

Oh, right, and...

"I will never attack Orario again next time."

Similar statements are circulating everywhere these days.

It's safe to say that if the person who said this were caught by the kingdom's higher-ups, they would definitely be in big trouble.

They might even be executed.

But now...

Cough cough, it's embarrassing to say, but right here in this military camp of the 'Great Tree Sea Border Defense Line', the two people who currently hold the highest positions in the Kingdom of Lachia... have started fighting like unruly children throwing a tantrum.

They were pulling hair and tugging at ears.

only because……

“Marius, don’t stop me! Such an outstanding human, I must recruit her into my ranks. She will surely become an invincible female general, and the unification of the continent by Lachia will be just around the corner…”

"You idiot god, don't you dare ask for it!"

Yeah, that's roughly it.

Ahem, never mind the silly antics they're doing over there.

Right now, on our side...

"It seems that my strength alone is not enough to put enough pressure on you."

After a long while, Hedin pushed up his glasses and finally managed to utter this sentence.

"However, the intended purpose has been achieved."

As Hedin said the last sentence, the glasses he pushed up with his fingertips seemed to reflect light.

I heard him mention it...

"Hmm? Purpose?"

"What is the purpose?"

"So what if we had a fight?"

"You even got beaten down yourself, how dare you say that?"

The four Gulliver brothers, who were born from Palum (a race of little people), started their 'professional' hate-inducing rhetoric again.

Hedin turned his head expressionlessly, golden lightning seemingly flickering at his fingertips...

"Uh, personally, I'm not really used to getting involved in these kinds of setups."

Seeing that the tent might take off at any moment, Ling Shukong coughed and took over the topic: "However, thanks to Mr. Tuhedin, the two matters of 'cooperation with the Loki Familia' and 'establishing prestige on the Great Tree Sea border' have both yielded great results."

"If we continue to act in this direction, not only will it be easier to establish a 'Joint Expeditionary Force,' but our influence in this military camp will also increase significantly."

"As a result, many subsequent matters will be much easier to handle."

When Ling Shu (Kong) finished speaking, Hedin did not admit it, but he gave him an approving look.

It was during this period that...

"Ah? Hmm... I see, I see..."

The four little people were completely bewildered.

Actually, Hegny was quite confused too.

Because all he knew was that his nemesis... namely Hedin, had other plans, but what exactly the latter was plotting... sorry, that's too much for his intelligence to bear.

"Of course, there's actually another small reason, which was just a coincidence this time."

Ling Shu (Kong) spoke again: "Just a short while ago, before Ying set off for the 'Great Tree Sea', we had already both reached Lv.4."

"In order to avoid causing unnecessary disturbances and slowing down the progress of the 'Secret Realm Scorpion', Ying and I actually lied about our current blessing levels."

"But since we're going to form a 'joint punitive expedition' to deal with Andaris, this matter will be exposed sooner or later."

"Well, taking this opportunity, we can inform Sister Shen and release the relevant information... Uh, what's wrong with you guys?"

Ling Shu (Kong), who was talking eloquently, noticed that all six officers in the tent had focused their attention on him and Ying, looking them up and down with strange expressions.

Subconsciously, he stopped the conversation and asked this question.

Upon hearing this...

"This is the first time I've felt so conflicted."
