"Because exchanging names is the beginning of understanding each other."

Amber smiled and nodded, but realizing that this didn't seem very typical, she added, "Rita has said something like this before."

"The beginning of getting to know each other?"

The princess blinked. "That is to say, if we want to understand each other, a name is necessary..."

Understand each other. These four words were extremely unfamiliar to her, but for some reason, they made her heart beat faster, and the corners of her mouth wanted to rise uncontrollably.

She did not reject this unprecedented feeling and then smiled for the first time.

Seeing this, Shizhi immediately laughed too, as if she saw a child following her guidance and achieving some amazing achievement. Even if it was just from crawling to walking, it made her feel surprised.

"What's wrong? You're making such a weird expression...!?"

Seeing Shizhi's face facing her, the princess subconsciously wanted to avoid her gaze, but she felt that this behavior seemed to show weakness, so she stared back with wide eyes.

"Sorry, I just had a happy thought."

Shizhi wanted to find a random excuse, but after thinking about it, he gave up and said directly: "No, it's just that seeing you smile makes me happy too."

Qin Li wanted to complain in her heart, "Speak so bluntly, where are you from, Yulandel?" But seeing the princess's obvious improvement in her favor and mood, she fell silent again.

Could it be that... the current version is really dominated by straight balls?

Thinking of how Yulandel easily brought her and Shiori closer with her straightforwardness, and now seeing Shiori instantly bring him and the princess closer with his straightforwardness, Kotori began to doubt her life for a moment. As someone who was familiar with various two-dimensional works, she certainly knew what the "cute attribute" was, and she was extremely clear about her own cuteness.

Simply put, it's tsundere and sisterly.

Logically, this should be a very powerful weapon, right? Why does it feel like it's been retired?

The three of them had no idea what Qin Li was feeling.

After being hit by Shiori's straight ball, the princess felt as if something was itching in her chest, and an unnatural heat rose on her face. She didn't know what this feeling was and she even stood there in a daze.

But she quickly realized: "You...just smiled. What are you so happy about!?"

"Because you always had a very negative expression before."

Shizhi also realized that he seemed to have embarrassed the other party, so he lowered his head slightly and looked at the ground. "We want to save you, but if the person we want to save doesn't want to save you, we will be helpless."

"Rescue...it seems like this is the second time I've heard this word from you."

The princess recalled the situation when the two sides had just met. Although the other party said so at that time, she did not really believe it. But the situation is different now. Because of Yulandel's military strength, she thought that "the other party is so strong that there is no need to lie to me", so she thought about this sentence seriously.

"But how are you going to save me? Where are you going to save me from?"

The princess was puzzled.

"Do you know why humans are fighting elves?"

Seeing that the princess seemed to understand the matter, Shizhi immediately smiled. She didn't expect that the progress would be so fast after just one contact.

"……do not know."

The princess shook her head: "Isn't it because I am an elf and you are human?"

"of course not."

Shiori explained: "This is why humans attack elves."

As she spoke, she pointed behind the princess. That was the direction they came from, which was filled with dilapidated ruins, cracked and collapsed ground, and of course, the huge deep pit in the distance.

But the princess just tilted her head and didn't understand what Shiori meant.

“This isn’t supposed to be the scene here.”

Of course, Shizhi understood the princess's confusion, so he took out the mobile phone from his pocket and showed the princess the street view photos he had prepared in advance.

Clean and tidy streets, pedestrians everywhere, this is a scene the princess has never seen before. She did not expect that there are so many humans, and she did not expect that the scenery she has seen all this time is not the human home, but the human's 'former home'.

"Is it... my appearance that caused this?"

The princess just lacked common sense and was not stupid. Thinking about the environment she was in every time she came to her senses and the context of Shiori's words just now, she naturally understood what she meant.

"Every time I wake up, I cause this kind of damage, so... that's why..."

This realization was a little hard for the princess to accept. She had always felt that she was attacked because of her racial differences. She had no intention of hurting them, but they kept coming after her.

In this cognition, she was sad and helpless, just a victim of passive defense, but everything Shizhi showed her made her understand that this was just her own wrong cognition. In fact, the reason she was attacked was because her appearance would destroy human homes.

The poor situation left her at a loss.

"But we can change that."

Seeing that the princess understood what he meant, Shizhi said.

Chapter 16: Shiori's distrust and Kotori's breakdown.

"What do you mean by solution?"

Hearing that there was a solution, the princess asked curiously.

"To put it simply...it means...sealing your spiritual power so that it won't be pulled back into the neighboring world and cause damage to reality by entering the present world."

Thinking of the so-called sealing process, Shizhi felt a little shy and embarrassed, but after all, it was for the sake of this world, so he said it out loud.

Moreover, now she wants to seal the elves not only for the sake of the world. After seeing the princess's expression as if she was rejected by the world, Shizhi also sincerely wants to help the elves change their fate of living in battle.

"Seal my spiritual power...? Wait a moment..."

The princess frowned slightly, vaguely sensing that something was wrong.

Her attitude made Shizhi a little nervous: "Is there a problem?"

"Um……"

Although she didn't quite understand the ways of this world, the princess had never truly experienced dating before and remained quite wary of humans. After pondering for a moment, she finally figured out the problem: "If I seal my spiritual power, then that means I won't have the strength to fight, right?"

After saying this, Amber looked at her in surprise.

Now that you can think of this, are you still the Tohka who only cares about eating?

"This……"

Shizhi also realized this belatedly.

Yes, if the spiritual power of the elves is sealed, it means that they have become ordinary humans. In this way, if any unexpected situation occurs, they will be unable to fight back.

Kotori said at the right moment, "Ratatoskr will provide protection and shelter for the elves. Don't worry about the expenses. As long as the situation isn't outrageous, they'll be reimbursed. Furthermore, the seal isn't that solid. If the elves' emotions fluctuate too much, their spiritual energy will flow back."

After hearing this, Shiori relaxed a little. She did not consider the situation of the elves after the spiritual power was sealed. It was not because she did not care about the elves, but simply because she did not consider this aspect. It was just that she was limited by the cognition and vision of an ordinary high school student and could not think so much.

But there is one more thing.

In fact, even though Shiori is now acting according to Ratatoskr's arrangements, she actually has no good feelings towards Ratatoskr.

After all, from Shizhi's point of view, Ratatoskr is an organization that dragged her underage sister to work and secretly plotted to take advantage of her "special physique". When she failed, they could only rely on family ties and justice to kidnap her. Shizhi has no good feelings towards Ratatoskr.

And because Shiori is the person who has been worried about for so long, he is particularly sensitive and suspicious about this kind of behavior, especially the behavior done by Ratatoskr.

"Then...what about destiny?"

Thinking of this, Shizhi couldn't help but look at Amber.

“?” X2.

Neither Kotori nor Amber expected Shiori to suddenly mention destiny.

"Destiny is an important partner of Ratatoskr, but our cooperation is about the harassment of DEM and AST."

Kotori didn't know what Shiori was thinking, so she could only tell the truth.

"But, Ratatosk..."

Shiori's brows furrowed even tighter.

Only then did Kotori understand what her sister meant. During these two days, Shiori had often shown suspicion and distrust towards Ratatoskr.

Kotori is the commander of Ratatoskr. Although she has not been brainwashed, her education since childhood has been related to Ratatoskr. Therefore, she has a great sense of belonging to Ratatoskr and considers herself to be one of them, so she often speaks well of Shiori.

But to Shiori, this was no different from brainwashing. After all, it was all about instilling good ideas in Ratatoskr. The two sisters had a small quarrel because of this, and finally took a step back and did not discuss it any further.

Therefore, Kotori has figured out Shiori's thoughts at this time. Shiori probably thinks that Ratatoskr's arrangement for the elves must have bad intentions and will inevitably end up with surveillance and research.

But honestly, wouldn't any organization do the same, let alone Ratatoskr? Wouldn't Destiny do the same if given the chance? Wouldn't DEM do the same? It wouldn't matter who did it! If it's the same for everyone, why not Ratatoskr?

After all, Ratatoskr is under her nose, and she is an elf herself as the commander, so she would not use those despicable means in front of her.

Unfortunately, these thoughts are a bit beyond Shiori's scope. Shiori only knows that her sister has been brainwashed and that she has been under surveillance for at least five years. Thinking of these two points, it is impossible for her to think rationally.

On the other hand, Yulandel, the strongest Valkyrie in Sentence, has a righteous and upright character and a strong sense of justice. With Yulandel as the starting point of Shiori's understanding of Sentence, he naturally thinks that everyone in Sentence is like Yulandel.

The cognitive gap caused by this first impression made it easy for Shiori to rank Tianming's qualities before Ratatoskr. Even though she knew that Tianming would not treat elves as ordinary people, she still felt that it was better to be on Tianming's side.

"Shiori! Don't you believe me!?"

Kotori had to admit that she was a little upset. Her sister actually trusted a stranger she had only known for a few days more than she did with whom she depended on each other.

"Kotori...it's not that I don't trust you and your Fraxinus."

I don't trust Ratatosk.

Although she didn't say the second half of the sentence, everyone could understand what she meant.

Even if your Fraxinus were all your own, what good would it do? After all, it was a Ratatoskr-controlled airship. Without Ratatoskr's support, it wouldn't be able to operate for long. In this situation, how could you provide protection for the elves?

These words choked Kotori's anger in her throat. Shiori's idea certainly made sense, but to put it bluntly, he still didn't trust her.

Shiori doesn't think he can protect the elves in Ratatoskr.

This realization made Kotori bite the lollipop in her mouth into pieces, and the anger in her heart made the temperature around her rise rapidly.

Spiritual energy was flowing in reverse, and everyone in Fraxinus immediately realized this.

Kanwu Yue immediately comforted her: "Commander, the girl from Gokawa is just an ordinary high school student!"

You can't expect a high school student like her to think so much. Maybe she is simply too prejudiced against Ratatoskr and has never considered the possibility of you maneuvering around.

"Kotori, don't be impulsive."

Murasame Reine also said calmly: "Don't forget Fraxinus's mission."

It wasn't Ratatosk, it was Fraxinus.

After hearing the comfort from her adjutant and best friend, Gokawa Kotori's grievance and anger of not being trusted finally calmed down a lot. Kotori understood what they said. Shiori didn't think that much and was just judging with the vision and thinking of a high school student.

Fraxinus's mission is only to help Shizhi conquer the elves, and nothing else is involved. Regardless of the outcome, the conquest is the top priority.

Realizing this, Kotori finally suppressed her emotions.

Seeing this, Murasame Reine withdrew her gaze and then looked at the screen again.

You ask her what the culprit thinks? She just sits and watches.

The whereabouts of the elves is of no importance to her, as long as Shizhi can seal the elves. It would be a good thing if the princess is taken to heaven. In this way, if Shizhi wants to visit the princess, he can also contact the other three elves.

The rest depends on how Yulandel will answer. No matter where the princess is, it will not affect her plan.

Chapter 17: The outrageous management of destiny.

Amber didn't expect that Shidou, who never doubted Ratatoskr in the original work, would become so cautious towards Ratatoskr now that he has become Shiori.

But if you think about it carefully, it makes sense. After all, in the original work, Rishido has no background other than Ratatoskr, so he has no choice.

That's not right... Even if I had no choice, I was too trusting. At first, I thought it was a comedy romance, so I didn't think much of it. But after the world view unfolded, it really is a bit outrageous when I think about it carefully...

"If Tohka is willing, she can come and live in Tenmei."

Amber gave her own answer. Of course she could decide on this matter. After all, the boss of Destiny was Mebius, and Mebius was another her. There was no need to distinguish between you and me between the two of them.

"Destiny?"

The princess didn't mind being called Tohka. After all, she didn't really know how to choose a name, and she didn't dislike the human Amber, so since the other party called her that, she had no complaints.

Rather than the name, she was more curious about the term the other person used.

"The Destiny is an organization dedicated to fighting against the elves."

Amber said.

The princess, or rather Tohka who had accepted the name, frowned after hearing this, but did not say anything immediately, waiting for the next step.

"But the reason why Destiny opposes the elves is because the elves will cause destruction to reality."
