Honkai impact: Dimensional Herrscher

The sky was clear as the clouds gave away space for the sun to shine down on the horizon

There was a medieval town, but unlike what was commonly seen, this one has a peaceful atmosphere because it's a town where beginners usually start their journey on this world

On the side of a road of Axel, a wagon passed by, revealing Kazuma and Aqua with vastly different expressions on their faces

Aqua lowered her head, her long hair covering her eyes as the air around her was gloomy as she tried to come to terms with what happened to her

Meanwhile, Kazuma was looking at the air with an angry expression on his face like a madman. He was currently preoccupied by the holographic screen that no one but him could see

[Advocate of gender equality: I don't know what that means, but if it came from you, it's probably something offensive]

[Devourer: Eh? You don't know that? Then how did you know Pokemon then?]

Adam frowned at that, when he wrote the Pokemon joke, Kazuma seemed to get it. But now it seems that he either hasn't watched some anime, or they don't exist in his world

'I originally thought that every word has completely different anime... But now it seems that's not entirely the case' Adam concluded

[Advocate of gender equality: Who the hell doesn't know Pokemon?! Do you think I lived under a rock?]

'Ah, it seems that I was right... ' Adam thought before he saw a message again

[Advocate of gender equality: But why are you asking unrelated questions? Can you first explain this screen??]

'Maybe worlds can influence one another on a small scale' Adam once again theorized before he wrote a message

[Devourer: In simple words, this Chat Room connects different users from different worlds and let's us communicate with each other, there is also a shop that let's us buy things that can be helpful to us, but that's not important for now]

[Advocate of gender equality: Different worlds? Like this one?]

[Devourer: Something like that, but much more complicated. But now I want to confirm something so I have a few things to ask you, answer as fast as you can]

[Advocate of gender equality: What?]

[Devourer: People die if...]

[Advocate of gender equality: Huh? They are killed]

Kazuma didn't understand where this was going, but he answered anyway

[Devourer: Just because you are correct...]

[Advocate of gender equality: Doesn't mean you are right]

Kazuma answered faster this time while some of other members understood what's going on

[Sentient game character: Eh? What is happening?]

[Exhibitionist: Oooooh, is this the secret code of otakus?!]

[I'm a slime, so what?: I see, I understand]

[Schizophrenic spider: Hey! Hey! I want to join too~]

Kazuma and Adam kept going on with a lot of anime quotes with a speed that other members took a lot of effort to keep up with

[Devourer: If you don't take risks...]

[Advocate of gender equality: You can't create a future!]

[Devourer: Alright, last question. You thought this was your second chance at life...]

This time, Kazuma didn't choose to write in the chat, but he faced the camera of the broadcast in real life and pointed to his face with his thumb

"But it was me, KAZUMA!" He screamed, while Aqua, who was having an existential crisis, finally snapped out of her daze after hearing his shout

[Devourer: It seems that you really are a man of culture....]

[Advocate of gender equality: I never really thought I'll meet a fellow comrade, one who is also a jerk]

[Devourer: Oi! You have crossed the line, I'm not a jerk, you gender equality guy]

[Advocate of gender equality: Honestly, this Nickname isn't so bad now that I think about it. I have no problem attacking a girl]

[Devourer: Hmm, I guess I'm the same? If a girl hits me, I would slap her until she begs for forgiveness]

[Advocate of gender equality: Oh yeah? Then I wouldn't hesitate to dropkick and start punching... ]

Both of them started talking about the gender equality of both males and females while the other Chat Rooms member started getting uncomfortable

[Schizophrenic spider: I'm suddenly feeling very unsafe in this Chat Room]

[I'm a slime, so what?: ...]

[Exhibitionist: I think I want to stay away as far as possible from these two...]

[Sentient game character: Ooh~ Devourer, you can hit me as much as you want~]

[Devourer: ....Ehem]

[Devourer: Adam]

[Advocate of gender equality: Kazuma]

[Sentient game character: Eh~? What did I just witness?]

[I'm a slime, so what?: The beginning of a beautiful friendship]

While Kazuma started writing in the Chat Room again, Aqua got impatient as she interrupted him by shaking him and proceeding to scream

"Stop! Stop it!" Kazuma tried to get Aqua off him but she just kept sticking to him like a koala with tears in her blue eyes

"I get it, okay? I'm sorry" Kazuma said with a little regret before finally pushing Aqua away

"If you hate it so much, just go back to your home" Kazuma said in an exasperated tone as it was the most obvious thing

"I can figure the rest myself anyway...." Kazuma said with a voice filled with certainty and confidence

[Devourer: You're a noob level cannon fodder without any combat experience. You'll die by the first LV1 mob you'll meet]

[Advocate of gender equality: Shut up bastard! Like you are any better!?]

[Devourer: Well, you are right for now. But this won't last for long]

[Exhibitionist: I feel that there is no room for us to intervene in this conversation]

[Sentient game character: Same~, but as long as everything is okay. I have to leave in order to code some things, so goodbye~]

The cute spider didn't answer as she was currently snacking on a monster while intently watching the conversation between Adam and Kazuma with interest evident in her eight eyes

"What are you saying? I can't go back! What do you expect me to do now?!" Aqua said before crying even more intensely

Kazuma looked at Aqua calmly before saying "Alright, calm down goddess" his confident voice was enough to calm down the useless goddess temporarily

"At times like this, we need to go to the adventurers guild and obtain information. This is the normal thing in most RPGs" 

"When did you become so dependable?" Aqua asked suddenly, suprised at Kazuma's change

Kazuma's eyebrows twitched at that as he stared at her with a glare, opting to choose silence

"Haah, do you know where the guild is?" Kazuma sighed as he said that in an exasperated tone

"Hah? I'm a goddess. Why would I care about the affairs of mortals?"

'Useless bitch' Kazuma thought as he once again glared at Aqua before deciding to walk forward and try to find the guild, if he didn't, he would go ask the residents of this town

"Hey! Wait for me!" Aqua shouted as she quickly followed Kazuma

[Devourer: Hey, equality guy. Need some help?]

Kazuma stared at the message that flashed in suprise

[Advocate of gender equality: Is the world ending? Otherwise someone like you would never help anyone. So tell me what you want]

Even if they didn't know each other for a long time, Kazuma already knew that this guy would never help someone out of the goodness of his own heart without getting anything in return

[Devourer: What I'm want? Haven't you thought that maybe I genuinely want to help you?]

[Advocate of gender equality: Bullshit!]

[Devourer: .....Well, even if I wanted something in return, you wouldn't have what I want]

Adam who was looking at the ME corporation from his window with a thoughtful expression decided in his heart before writing

He didn't know if it was worth the risk, but maybe he could manage to do it....

[Devourer: Maybe it was because I was moved by what you did, or maybe I want my new friend to stay safe until he gets stronger... But it might also be the same reason you put yourself in front of that girl]

[Advocate of gender equality: My....reason...?]

Kazuma didn't finish his words because inwardly he understood what his reason was

[Devourer: Why I want to help you doesn't matter, anyway. What matters is YOUR answer]

Kazuma who was walking suddenly stopped in his tracks

"Hey! What happened?" Aqua who almost bumped on him, suddenly asked

But Kazuma ignored her before he took a deep breath and answered

[Advocate of gender equality: I accept. But I want something simple like a weapon]

Adam who saw the message smiled in satisfaction at that

[Devourer: Good. You don't want to rely on something external. After I finish my plan, I will send you a sword or something]

[Exhibitionist: I was following your conversation for while. But I have to ask, is there actually a way to help him?]

[Devourer: There is gift function so we can send items between members]

[Exhibitionist: Oh I see. But what are you planning on sending him?]

[Devourer: Well, I was going to send him some guns, some shields, maybe a sword that can freeze anything it comes contact with... But he refused]

'Maybe this guy isn't that bad' Kazuma thought before he realised something was wrong

[Advocate: ...Can I choose again?]

[Devourer: hehehe... No]

[Advocate of gender equality: Give me back my feelings, you bastard!]

[Advocate of gender equality finished streaming and got 50 points]

"Damn, I'll never try to act cool again" Kazuma started sulking after he knew that he missed such an opportunity

"Well... at least it won't be a normal weapon..... right?" he tried comforting himself with the hope of a cool sword or something similar
