“As you wish, your highness.”
The floating city disappeared before entering the Konosuba Universe.
“Any anomalies?”
“So far, everything seems to be working perfectly fine.”
“Can you scan the environment to detect where we are?”
“As you wish,” replied Morgana. A few seconds later, she replied: “We are on planet Earth, the year 2017.”
“In that case, hide on the moon. We will go to see if the laws of this universe will restrict us,” added Hermione before changing her outfit to fit the modern standard, along with the others.
The group teleported to London to a spot where no one could see them, nor were there any cameras.
“Is this what you called rule suppression?” asked Fleur as she sensed the mana inside her body. “I can only use Tier 4 strength. It’s an unpleasant feeling to be weakened.”
She was not the only one feeling this way. Filius was also sealed from Tier 6 to Tier 4. And since it was his first voyage, the feeling was slightly unpleasant to him.
“Let’s check around,” said Hermione, and the group spent the next hours visiting the city.
“How fascinating. The entire city, culture, and history are exactly the same as back in our universe. However, the people are entirely different,” commented Filius. “I wonder the reason?”
“Edward had two theories to explain this scenario,” said Hermione. “One, the world we currently are was created by some individual from Primordial Earth, using Earth as a model.
“Or, the dimension Primordial Earth exists in is so special that it can influence the void to create these worlds based on [Earth].”
“That would be an interesting conjecture to prove,” said Lily.
“Yes, it would. Unfortunately, anything related to Primordial Earth is currently above our pay grade,” said Hermione. After checking the city to ensure there was no abnormality, Morgana hacked the network of the entire planet before creating an identity for the team.
She also ensured they were wealthy and bought a villa for their stay. After all, with control of the web, money is nothing but a number.
“Morgana, how long before we can return to our peak state?” asked Snape.
“Permission to scan your bodies.”
“Permission granted.”
“According to my calculations, 3 months, 14 days, and 8 hours.”
Snape looked at Hermione, “Do you want to use the plan now or wait until we fully recover?”
“To be safe, let’s wait.”
Then, the group decided to split up to do different things. Fleur and Filius wanted to experience this era. After all, the Empire went from the technological age of the early 2000s to hundreds of years of the future in a few decades.
So, the life of “modern” people in the year 2017 was attractive to the two of them. However, the same could not be said for Hermione, Snape, and Lily, who already experienced the novelty of this era in the last voyage.
So, Snape and Lily decided to take a ship to travel throughout the galaxy, while Fleur and Filius traveled worldwide, visiting different countries and experiencing different cultures.
As for Hermione, she decided to become a dentist in the short 3 months. Before learning she was a witch, she always thought she would be a dentist like her parents. But she never had the opportunity–especially since dentistry was no longer an occupation in the Empire.
After all, all oral issues can be solved with a cheap potion or a spell.
She made a slight stir in the dentistry world in the short three months. And she could have achieved more if not for the fact she wanted to remain relatively low-key.
Then, the group finally reunited before immediately exciting their plan. They drink a potion that seals their mana, aura, and Higher Life Essence, essentially turning them into mortals.
Then, they took a trip to Japan, where they had an accident during a bus crash.
Soon afterward, the five found themselves sitting in a slightly dark and ethereal space.
“What is going on? Where am I?” asked Hermione in confusion.
“Fleur, is that you? Aren’t we dead? Are the others here?”
“I thought so as well.”
“Heherm.”
The five of them looked at the woman with silver hair sitting opposite them.
“I am the Goddess Eris, and unfortunately, you have died.”
The five of them–except Snape–had sad faces before sighing.
“Now, regarding your case, there are some complications. You are all British, so someone else should be responsible for your afterlife. However, given that you died in Japan, the region currently under my control, I’m responsible for you.”
“W-what is going to happen to us?” asked Fleur, a little flustered.
“You have two options. You can ascend to Heaven, or I can reincarnate you into a world of sword and magic with all your memories intact.”
“Is it possible to send us back to Earth?” asked Hermione
“Unfortunately, no.”
“I figure.”
“Reincarnating in another world,” muttered Filius. “Is that what the Japanese called Isa…ite, what’s the word?”
“Isekai,” said Snape with his usual stoic voice.
“I forgot you like to watch these cartoons.”
“It’s not a cartoon; it’s anime. I’ve told you this many times.”
“Herhem,” Eris coughed lightly as she felt those two were about to fight each other. “So, what is your decision?”
“When someone gets isekai, they usually have some cheat-like abilities or items. Does that rule also applies here?” asked Snape.
“That’s correct.”
“In that case, I want–”
“Excuse, could you tell us about the situation of this magical world?” asked Lily.
Them Eris explained about the world of Axis, the Demon King Invasion, and a few basic knowledge. However, Lily was not satisfied and spent the next ten minutes asking questions after questions.
‘Phew, is this what it takes to be an elite lawyer? I can’t believe such a meticulous person is married to an anime-loving pharmacist; they seemed completely incompatible,’ thought Eris while giving Snape a strange glance.
“I want all the magical knowledge of the world.”
“I want a Copy Skill to copy all the skills.”
“I want a skill that allows me to ignore Skill Points.”
“I want a Super Class that combines all the classes.”
“I want a billion Mythril coins.”
Eris’s lisp twitched after hearing the requests of these people.
“Unfortunately, I cannot accept your request.”
“Why not?”
“Recently, someone asked to take one of our goddesses as their cheat-ability. So, the Gods in Heaven decided to change the rules and limit the request allowed.”
She quickly manifested a book, “This is a book containing the things you can request for.”
The group rapidly read through the books before glancing at each other. They communicated the same thought through the eyes: all these so-called “divine items” are thrash. Any of them could make them once their power is unsealed.
Ultimately, they chose a permanent buff that made them rise more quickly in levels than others. Finally, Eris sent them into the new world.
“What a strange group,” she muttered before taking out a file containing their lives on Earth. She felt something was wrong with them but could not pinpoint exactly what it was. So, she gave up pondering on the issue.
The World of Axel:
“Well, this went smoother than expected,” said Hermione.
“Yes, I think giving each of us unique personality traits was a great idea,” said Fleur.
“I’m just happy we don’t have to use force to enter this dimension,” added Filius.
“Nevertheless, we still need Morgana to locate this dimension in case we need to make an emergency retreat.”
Snape looked at the ring in his body, and with a thought, a green tube appeared in his hand. He drank it and immediately felt the effect: he unsealed his mana.
However, he soon frowned afterward.
“What’s wrong?” asked Lily.
“My mana is unsealed, but I can’t cast any spells.”
“It must be because you don’t have the mage class. The rules of this dimension might be very restrictive regarding classes.”
Snape nodded: “The great news is our Aura has no problem, so we can still use our physical strength if needed.”
Then, the other members also drank the potion to unseal themselves before heading to the Adventurer Guild.
