[Jealous Witch's Object of Escape: Hey, hey, hey, Kazuma, is this how you act the moment you see someone is a guy...]
[Useless Goddess, You Really Deserve to Die: A guy who's surrounded by beautiful girls and even goes as far as becoming a servant just to be with one has no right to talk to me!]
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: What?]
[Unsurrounded One: It's nothing, don't mind them.]
Yuji Itadori gave a helpless, bitter smile, feeling a bit at a loss with these two fellows.
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: So a 'group' is a collective formed by people from different worlds who can communicate through text, correct?]
[Unsurrounded One: Correct, that's more or less it.]
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: Then, how should I address you all? These prefixes... are they names? No, that's not right. I have a prefix too; it's a code name for this group, isn't it?]
[Unsurrounded One: Yeah, it's a group nickname. It seems like the group system assigns them based on everyone's psychological state. However, we usually address each other by our real names. I am Yuji Itadori. Nice to meet you.]
[Jealous Witch's Object of Escape: I'm Natsuki Subaru! Nice to meet you!]
[Useless Goddess, You Really Deserve to Die: Aqua]
[Useless Goddess, You Really Deserve to Die retracted a message]
[Useless Goddess, You Really Deserve to Die: Never mind... I'm Sato Kazuma.]
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: Did I misread that just now? I saw the name 'Aqua'?]
[Useless Goddess, You Really Deserve to Die: I just mistyped accidentally.]
Everyone else fell into silence for a moment.
Sato Kazuma truly was no ordinary person.
[Jujutsu Physical Education Student: Although it might be a bit hard to explain, I am also Yuji Itadori.]
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: Eh? Do the two of you share the same first and last name?]
[Jujutsu Physical Education Student: This is a long story.]
Subsequently, everyone explained the situation of the two Yuji Itadoris to Himmel and introduced their own respective situations.
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: I see... People from different worlds and different times gathered in this group... It really is... beyond imagination.]
[Unsurrounded One: Himmel, would you mind introducing yourself?]
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: Yes, I am the Hero. I've set out on a journey with my companions to subjugate the Demon King...]
Himmel said a great deal, giving everyone a decent understanding of his situation.
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: ...That's roughly how it is on my side. Also, I should add, I'm quite a handsome guy!]
After saying that, Himmel sent a selfie.
With short blue hair and a refined face almost like that of a woman, he was indeed a handsome guy—
However, the more handsome someone is, the easier it is to draw resentment.
[Useless Goddess, You Really Deserve to Die: Who asked you?]
The other party was a Hero; that was originally the class Sato Kazuma had most longed to become after traveling to the Other World.
But the current Sato Kazuma had long since had his sharp edges worn down by his pig-teammates.
Furthermore...
This guy named Himmel, though he sounded very polite, seemed like a total narcissist based on that last comment?
On the other side, Yuji Itadori gently rubbed his chin with one hand, falling into thought as he looked at Himmel's chat history.
Judging from the content of the chat, Himmel was a bit odd, but he didn't seem like the type who would be difficult to get along with.
Still, he needed to see what kind of person he specifically was.
In Itadori's mind, a classic question from a certain close friend of his surfaced.
The ultimate question to see if someone is compatible—
[Unsurrounded One: @Only Love White-Haired Elves, Himmel, what kind of women do you like?]
...
Meanwhile, in another world.
Himmel closed the chat interface and turned his head toward Frieren.
"Himmel, what kind of nonsensical things have you been saying over there for a while now?"
It was a low, mature female voice.
The owner of the voice stood nearby. Her long silver-white hair flowed like moonlight, styled into twin tails hanging at her sides, which added a bit of cuteness to her refined face. Her green eyes, set into her fair skin, were as bright as gems.
Her pointed ears peeked slightly from her hair, marking her status as a member of the Elf Race.
"I'm not saying strange things, Frieren."
The moment their eyes met, an incredibly gentle smile appeared on Himmel's face.
"I really did just see something quite remarkable. It's an existence beyond Magic! You'd definitely be interested."
Himmel narrowed his eyes slightly; it seemed Frieren couldn't see what he saw.
He opened the chat interface again.
[Jujutsu Physical Education Student: I feel like there's no need to ask; his nickname already says everything.]
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: This topic requires a thorough answer.]
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: My type is an Elf with white twin tails. There's a hint of color in her blue-green eyes; the pupil colors from top to bottom are red, blue, green, and yellow. She has long, pointed elf ears and wears a pair of red earrings. She wears a white mage robe with gold trim and brown boots, and beneath the robe is a shirt with black and white stripes.]
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: In her hand, she carries a staff embedded with a round ruby at the top. She has a detached personality and seems cold, but in reality, she's a slow-burn type who is quite slow to react to human emotions. Her hobby is collecting all kinds of Magic...]
[Useless Goddess, You Really Deserve to Die: ...]
[Jealous Witch's Object of Escape: ...]
Natsuki Subaru and Sato Kazuma had just expressed their speechlessness in the group when their messages were instantly buried by Himmel's words.
The moment the topic turned to girls he liked, this guy Himmel simply couldn't control himself.
As he sent the messages, he stared unblinkingly at Frieren beside him.
But even without looking at her, Himmel could recite Frieren's appearance and attire in full.
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: ...Her favorite food is...]
[Useless Goddess, You Really Deserve to Die: Stop spamming the chat, hey!!!]
Sato Kazuma then retaliated by posting images in the group—all of them were Aqua making funny faces.
He had directly turned Aqua's usual bizarre expressions into stickers.
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: My apologies. I can't help myself once the topic comes up. By the way, what are those images you're sending? Are they some kind of monster?]
[Useless Goddess, You Really Deserve to Die: Actually, this is a person who calls herself a goddess.]
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: A goddess? We have a goddess here too, though she's a figure from legends a long, long time ago... Right, Sir Unsurrounded One, you're the leader here, correct?]
[Unsurrounded One: Just call me Group Leader.]
[Only Love White-Haired Elves: Understood, Group Leader. May I ask why you suddenly chose to ask me such a question?]
