Chapter 355
North of Hyogo, west of the sun.
The place where the souls of boys and girls belong, a peculiar world that can only be seen after death.
【Anti-Angel Headquarters】
A pile of various knives, guns, swords, and halberds, all exaggeratedly large and definitely not something that could be wielded by the arm strength of a normal human, were piled up in the corner. A murderous atmosphere filled this not-so-spacious space, but what was even more eye-catching was the girl in the center who was giving a speech.
With a slap, she jumped heavily onto the office desk.
It was a girl wearing a sailor suit, a miniskirt, and black over-the-knee socks that squeezed out a tight, beautiful curve on her calves and thighs in an instant, with dark red shoulder-length hair and a headband decorated with a green bow.
Although one had to praise her for being cute, the girl, who had no ladylike air at all, held up an index finger and said aggressively:
"Mas Oyama once said that if a human and a cat fight in a cage, and the human takes a katana, it can be called the first time they are on equal footing!"
A blue-haired boy who looked quite handsome but had a temperament strangely like a hippie from the last century complained: "Did Mas Oyama ever say such a thing?"
"Shut up! Subordinates are not allowed to contradict the leader!"
With a barbaric style and a tough attitude, after making everyone shut up with a gaze as sharp as a knife, Yuri Nakamura continued her previous topic: "In order to fight against angels who far exceed humans, we humans who rebel against God must also take up weapons... no, just taking up weapons is not enough, we must unite as one!"
Because of her unreasonable life and cruel fate, in order to rebel against fate and the God who toys with humans, Yuri Nakamura decided to fight to the end in this afterlife world and formed a club.
But just like the predicament the SOS Brigade once encountered, their club did not yet have a name that was majestic and loud enough to make people feel awed and fearful.
"Now, everyone start proposing!"
Including the newly joined boy who couldn't even remember his own name, everyone was energized and racked their brains to think.
"If we unite as one... what happens when we are one? It's very imposing, right?" Matsushita, a judo master with a bear-like strong physique and known for his calm style, smiled and said something not so good.
"Rejected, the afterlife world is always a harsh winter! Spring will not come until we defeat God!"
Yuri Nakamura rejected it without hesitation.
"Shinshinkai!"
Fujimaki, a boy carrying a classic Japanese wooden sword on his shoulder with a slightly fierce look like a hungry wolf, shouted loudly.
"Rejected! It sounds like some karate association! Do you think you are Fujimaki Jusai? Our opponent is not Danba Bunshichi!"
"Then, how about Naval District?" A boy with a passerby face and no features, Oyama, suggested weakly.
"Might as well call it the Invincible Armada, you idiot! If you can find the lost ship girls, it's not impossible to consider."
"With thorns, without thorns."
Leaning slightly on the armrest of the sofa, Iwasawa Masami, a red-haired band vocalist and guitarist, raised her hand and said.
"Not established! Everyone is at least still in high school, right?"
"Sounyakai." The blue-haired, red-eyed "ninja" Shiina, wearing a long black scarf and being reticent, coldly spat out a few words. Her temperament made it hard to tell if she was really a ninja.
Hearing this name, Yuri Nakamura shuddered for no reason, formed an "X" shape with her hands in front of her chest, and denied it in a panic:
"No! No! No!"
"Hakugyokuro!" This was a suggestion from someone who had no motivation and already wanted to go eat.
"Isn't this just saying that everyone is already dead!"
"Hi hi... Far East Magic Nap Society!"
"This meme has already been played out! If you do this again, I'll beat you up!"
Yuri Nakamura, whose anger level was up, with hellfire seemingly about to erupt from her head like Devilman, waved her fist and threatened viciously.
It was clearly a serious topic about rebelling against God, but this group of guys, when gathered together, were just like comedians, completely clowning around. It seemed like she was the only one who was serious.
But stuck with such a group of people, she had no choice but to make do.
After all, the bad-hearted God threw them here, people who died suddenly in the best time of their lives. Although they were all idiots, sometimes only idiots were willing to do such stupid things with her.
"What about you?"
Yuri Nakamura was desperate for this world of only idiots. The red-haired boy in front of her who had just woken up didn't look very smart either, but she still asked with the mentality of treating a dead horse as a living one.
"... Dawn Blood Alliance?"
After a moment of silence, the boy "Otonashi Yuzuru," who hadn't yet accepted the strange experience of suddenly appearing in this bizarre world and then being stabbed to death by two girls one after another, finally proposed a fairly cool name.
"You FF14-playing OO!"
The girl cursed frantically, "Don't you have any innovation or creativity at all!"
In a sense, Yuri Nakamura, who could catch all these memes, was also a quite terrifying existence. No wonder she could become the unique leader of this front.
"Let's go back to the beginning and call it the Afterlife Battlefront."
The girl rubbed her forehead helplessly, feeling that the future was really bleak.
The world created by God is not perfect... but she will not give up. As long as she continues to fight against the "Angel" in this world, she will never be reincarnated.
Most of the people here suffered tragic fates in their lives and were unwilling to accept it, which is why they came here and got another chance. If they just gave up so easily, wouldn't it be a waste?
Except for Otonashi Yuzuru, who had been in this world for less than a day, everyone wore a uniform with the "SSS" emblem representing the Shinda (Afterlife) Sekai (World) Battlefront, with the words "rebels against the god."
Which is the SSS group.
"Our goal is to eliminate the Angel and then conquer this world." Saying such reckless things, Yuri Nakamura firmly shouted her philosophy.
As for this 【Anti-Angel Headquarters】...
—It was actually just the principal's office they had seized.
"How did things turn out like this?"
"Yuriko came, and the person I've been waiting for also came. They were clearly two happy things, so why..."
It was a girl with beautiful silver hair, charming amber gemstone-like pupils, delicate features, a cute face, fair and smooth jade-like skin, and a petite, moving body, with a cold expression.
A pure girl who looked like an angel descending to the world, she looked at the group of delinquent students who had occupied the principal's office and showed a slightly troubled expression.
In this world, there is no death. Injuries recover quickly, and even if you are chopped into meat paste by knives and axes, you can be resurrected. If you get a stomachache, you will get better soon... It is said to be somewhat similar to a type of existence called Hourai people, but this should be due to the special nature of the world itself.
A world like a miniature garden, the center of everything is a full-boarding university with a total of over 2,000 people, but the vast majority of the students are just NPCs.
Yes, the kind of characters in games that have fixed behavioral patterns and exist purely to give the Player a sense of experience, non-player characters.
They have no independent thinking ability, and even if you do something to them, you will only get the reaction set by the program.
But all of this was clearly set up to help these boys and girls who came to this world because of regrets, to better enjoy the youth they had missed and make up for past regrets.
And since she came here, she had also been sparing no effort to help them reincarnate without regrets... Although she had received a reminder from Jia Ji in the past that if she wasn't careful, there would be a group of people who would oppose her every day and disrupt the school order, things still turned out like this before she knew it.
Although the passage of time in this world is not very noticeable, in reality, decades have passed since the misunderstanding arose.
From that time on, she had already been the student council president of this school and had taken on the obligation of maintaining school order. However, a case suddenly occurred one day—
Someone held a gun and kidnapped the principal.
And it was because of this incident that she failed to lead Yuriko to the right path—at that time, she was eager to save people and accidentally fired a light cannon with her bare hands, blasting the kidnapper into gray slag, and all of this was witnessed by Yuri Nakamura, who had just entered the world.
The overly shocked Yuriko didn't give her a chance to get to know each other and concluded that she was the messenger of the God who created the world—an Angel.
After all, who can fire a beam with their bare hands?!
These people only had the ability to be immortal, and this student council president was clearly superhuman!
Coincidentally, the students who knew her at the time and understood her thoughts had already reincarnated one after another, and no one could help her, who was already reticent, explain.
A misunderstanding was thus created.
As for why she could fire a light cannon, that had to be blamed on someone who uploaded a large number of fist art integration packs, letting her absorb a lot of chaotic stuff, and then combined with the world's unique programming software—ANGELPLAYER, through program editing, she possessed superhuman physique and skills with very powerful attack and defense.
Including but not limited to: Hokutosonic (Mountain-Cleaving Hand Blade), Hokutoharmonics (Super Beidou Immortal Qi Thunder Bomb), Hokutolightcannon (Hokuto Joke)... and a series of Nanto flying and earth-escaping abilities.
Normal humans have absolutely no way to counter the strongest student council president who integrated the North and South Stars through programming, but in the end, Yuriko found a way out.
Hand-crafting weapons.
Yes, hand-crafting various firearms, Austrian Glock-17 semi-automatic pistol, Russian RPK-74 5.45mm light machine gun, Golden Desert Eagle, grenades, halberds, former Soviet PPsh-41 submachine gun, Russian PP-19 Bizon submachine gun, German MG3 general-purpose machine gun, American AT-4 anti-tank rocket launcher, Austrian Glock 17, etc.
Through these high-powered weapons, this "It doesn't matter if you die battlefront" barely had the ability to counter the "Angel," but this was also thanks to Kanade just thinking they were playing with her.
"When the time comes, they will know..."
Blinking her eyes, the silver-haired girl tilted her head slightly and thought optimistically. After all, their time was infinite, and one day everyone's wishes would be fulfilled.
As for now, it's time to eat!
Although neither the NPCs nor the boys and girls who came here after death would age and would remain forever vibrant, they still needed to enjoy and still had the desire for food—the need to eat.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the girl fell lightly from the eaves to the ground and walked on the way to the cafeteria. There was no one around, and she suddenly hummed a song in a low voice:
"From the clear afterlife world, I recommend to you, just press a few numbers, you must taste it before you die, Mapo Tofu~ ah ah, Mapo Tofu~~ Mapo Tofu~~~ Ma↑~po↓~To↑↓~fu↑~"
That's right, it's the dish that brings happiness—Mapo Tofu!
After receiving a meal ticket from the cafeteria and exchanging it for the delicacy she never tired of, the natural girl chose a place with few people to sit down and began to enjoy her dinner.
Digging up a spoonful of terrifyingly red Mapo Tofu and putting it into her mouth, although there was not much expression on the girl's face, there was a feeling of a cute little animal eating quickly.
If you ask why she likes such heavy-flavored food—
"The spiciness like fire burning, the deep anesthetic-like Sichuan peppercorn, plus the smoothness and refreshing taste of the tofu itself, this is a wave attack on the taste buds!"
"While the tongue is satisfied with the hot spiciness of the tofu, it can also enjoy the crisp texture, as well as the tenderness that follows! It's like playing a beautiful melody on the tongue, and everything is suddenly clear!"
"The three melodies are harmonious but different, playing a deep, sweet, and mellow tone, gradually turning into light snow, dissipating in the fog, and slowly fading into the depths of the throat! It's simply a highly harmonious ensemble of tofu and meat!"
Reasons like this can be found as many as you want.
Of course, Kanade herself didn't have so many thoughts. She had simply tasted every food in the school cafeteria over a long period of time and felt that Mapo Tofu was the best.
Red, stimulating, delicious.
That's all.
However, after tasting the spiciness that was too fatal for ordinary people, the petite girl did not leave the seat immediately as usual to start the student council president's inspection work, but sat in place, slightly revealing a trace of loneliness.
"Jia Ji said... leave it to us..."
"But I'm already dead... I can't help much."
As she thought, she was already in a special state. If she left this world, whether she could exist was a question, let alone helping.
And if other living people arrived in this world, it might cause unknown mutations.
Therefore, no other-world visitors had visited so far, and she had not experienced any crossing.
Although Kanade had no dissatisfaction with her current life, sometimes she couldn't help but think that if she could see those friends who had accompanied her for decades with her own eyes, it would be great.
However, compared to her, others had a bigger reaction to this.
She remembered that person's strong complaints about this matter, "Jun Maeda, are you happy now? You cold-blooded and heartless person, setting the worldview like this, I will never forgive you, never!"
"A world created by a bad-hearted God, right! Then, I will... become God!"
Thinking of the strange things that guy said, feeling a little discouraged, the girl who could only watch everything from the sidelines lowered her head to tidy up the tableware, stood up, and typed a line in the group at the same time.
"Sorry everyone..."
