[Ding! Frieren has submitted a trade request: A method to eliminate all demons!]
[Ding! Mai Sakurajima has submitted a trade request: Make others see me again!]
The moment he finished speaking, two requests appeared.
The first was from Frieren.
Ethan looked at her information.
Name: Frieren
Level: 30
Abilities: “Elf Lineage,”
“Killing Magic,”
“Defensive Magic”…
Possessions: “Staff”
The available trade options were: “Elf Lineage,”
“Energy Matter,”
“Staff,”
“Right to Use the Body,” and dozens of different spells.
All he had to do was choose.
Once he did, Frieren would receive a notification.
Whether she accepted the terms would be up to her.
But the problem was…
“I have no idea how to wipe out all demons!”🤷♂️
Ethan let out a bitter laugh.
Even if someone defeated the Demon King, the demon race wouldn’t just vanish.
Besides, he was only level 15.
Frieren was level 30, clearly stronger than him.
If she couldn’t solve it, asking him wouldn’t help.
And then there was Mai Sakurajima.
Name: Mai Sakurajima
Level: 0
Ability: “Adolescence Syndrome – Cognitive Invisibility”
As expected, her trade options were still abilities, energy matter, and bodily rights.
The only surprising part was that her Adolescence Syndrome had been classified as an ability.
Unfortunately, trading abilities or items wouldn’t affect the original owner.
In other words, it couldn’t fix her problem.
At its core, Adolescence Syndrome came from complicated teenage emotions.
Solving that overnight would be difficult.
Ethan typed into the group chat:”@Frieren @Mai Sakurajima — I can’t handle your trade requests right now.”
He wasn’t cut out to be some all-knowing prophet, so honesty was the only choice.
“I just became the group leader. Anyone have an easier trade so I can get some practice?”
Frieren: “I figured I’d still have to rely on myself.”
Mai Sakurajima: “…”
Akame: “Can you destroy the Empire?”
Ethan: “…”
He seriously wanted to scream.😫
To be honest, he didn’t even know how strong he was yet.
How could he promise to take down an empire that had Esdeath, General Budo, and the Supreme Imperial Arms?
There was no way he could guarantee that.
Stella: “Wow. So you can’t do anything, huh?”
Then, out of nowhere, Saeko Busujima—who had been silent the entire time—sent a picture.
It showed a horrifying, shriveled figure, like a walking corpse.
Mai Sakurajima: “Is that makeup for a movie?
“She nearly jumped out of her seat opening it late at night.
Saeko Busujima: “No. That’s a human.”
“More precisely, a human infected by some virus and turned into a living dead monster.”
Stella: “Humans turned into that?!”
Mai Sakurajima: “Then… isn’t that just a zombie?”🧟♀️
Ethan: “Or what we’d call the ‘Dead.'”
Saeko Busujima: “You know about them?”
“Then can you defeat monsters like this?”
Ethan: “Send a trade request.”
If it was something like the Dead—creatures ordinary people could kill with weapons—he felt a bit confident.
It also seemed like a perfect chance to test his strength in another world.
Ding!
Saeko Busujima has sent a trade request!
Trade content: Eliminate the Dead in front of her and help her break through the encirclement.
Ding!
Please select trade conditions!
“Busujima-style swordsmanship… or her body?”
He rubbed his chin and thought it over.
In the end, Ethan chose Busujima-style swordsmanship.
If he picked her body outright, she might refuse the trade.
Fujimi Academy.
It started as a perfectly normal morning.
Then screams suddenly swept across the entire school.
A strange monster appeared—once human, now zombie-like.They bit anyone they saw.
Devoured humans alive.
Those bitten but not eaten didn’t die.
Their corpses would stand back up and become new monsters.
The very creatures Ethan had called the Dead.
“Shraaak!!”
Wearing the Fujimi Academy uniform, Saeko Busujima swung her wooden sword with overwhelming strength and technique, smashing a Dead’s skull apart.
Even as the talented daughter of the famous Busujima swordsmanship family, her skills were exceptional.
But faced with endless waves of the Dead rushing at her, even she was starting to struggle.
Dodging and attacking drained stamina fast.
“Hah… hah…”
Saeko panted heavily, her breathing ragged.
Ding!
Your trade request has been approved!
Trade condition: Busujima-style swordsmanship
Her eyes narrowed.
Busujima-style swordsmanship was her foundation.
If trading it meant she’d lose the ability to use it, giving it up just for this still-survivable situation wouldn’t be wise.
Ding!
Abilities and possessions are one-time trade options.
The trade target will ‘analyze the essence’ and ‘create a copy,’ which will not affect the original owner’s use.
She let out a quiet breath of relief.
Things weren’t as bad as she feared.
Ding!
Confirm the trade?
Note: Once the trade objective is completed, the conditions must be fulfilled.
Group leader Ethan has the authority to forcibly obtain the trade reward.
Understanding the situation, Saeko no longer hesitated.
“Confirm.”
At the same moment, Ethan received a notification.
Ding!
Trade initiated!
Trade partner: Saeko Busujima
Trade objective: Eliminate the Dead before her and help her break out of the encirclement.
Trade condition: Busujima-style swordsmanship
Stay duration: 3 hours
Ding!
World travel will begin in three seconds!
“World travel, huh…”
Ethan sighed softly.
Even something like this was possible through the chat group.
He silently counted down the three seconds.
Then his figure vanished from the room.
“…..”
“Chat Group: Harem Fights For Me”
