Aizen unconsciously smiled slightly. He didn't know when it started, but he had begun to care about others, especially someone he had never met before.

Perhaps it's easier to care about others through a chat group than in real life.

Grocery store owner: I'll try my best to get away and participate in this task.

Newbie here to fill in the blanks: Thank you so much, Dad! Dad really loves me the most!!

Newbie just filling in the numbers: But Dad might not be available, so Mom... (ingratiating smile)

Seventeen-year-old girl: Hmm?

*Snap!* Yukari Yakumo of Gensokyo opened her folding fan, covering half her face, her eyes slightly narrowed.

Newbie just there to make up the numbers: Pshaw! Look at my mouth, it's Sister Zi, the forever seventeen-year-old Sister Zi!

Newbie just filling in the numbers: So, Sister Zi, are you free...? (fawning smile)

Noelle: ...Your expression changes so fast!

Seventeen-year-old girl: Little filler sister~ (joyful laugh)

Paid newbie: This guy is the ultimate chameleon in the group. He calls her Sister Zi or Daddy when he needs something, and Mommy Zi or Uncle Zi when he doesn't.

Seventeen-year-old girl: I sympathize with your situation, and I'm also very willing to help.

Newbie who's just filling a spot: You have the nerve to say that! @PaidNewbie

Newbie just there to fill a spot: So, Sister Zi, are you...?

Seventeen-year-old girl: But I can't leave you, Zi-jie!

*Snap!* The fan slammed shut again! 'Yakumo Yukari was so delighted! She felt a surge of immense satisfaction! She was finally able to avenge this great grudge! The pleasure was almost overwhelming her!

However, despite her feigned innocence as a filler character, she truly couldn't leave. Everyone else in Gensokyo could leave, but she was the only one who couldn't simply depart.

The barrier of Gensokyo is a barrier that subverts common sense, a realm that overturns common sense. It is the most fundamental core of the great barrier, the one that cannot be separated from.

You might think it's fine to go to the outside world of Gensokyo and have some fun, but Yakumo Yukari wouldn't dare to try crossing worlds so casually.

Seventeen-year-old girl: So, little filler sister, why don't you go and try to find that Uchiha Madara?

Newbie just there to fill a spot: ...

Ugh, I'm so annoyed! But I have to stay elegant!

Chapter 126 The Unyielding Green Hills!

Newbie just filling in the numbers: @Uchiha Madara

Newbie just there to fill a spot: Master Ban? Master Ban! Is Master Ban there?

Newbie here to fill in: Uchiha Madara, are you there?!

Newbie commenter: Madara Uchiha, your brother ran away with Hashirama Senju! And they even got married!

Newbie just there to fill a spot: ...

"So, what should we do now?" Miss Fox shifted uncomfortably, looking quite distressed.

The task of filling the Great Tomb can definitely be left to Aizen.

But Miss Fox wasn't worried about whether Aizen's father could handle the Great Tomb of Nazarick; she was worried about whether he could spare the time to come and help. After all, throughout the entire Bleach universe, Aizen's father was an incredibly busy man. Miss Fox didn't believe she possessed any charm that would necessarily persuade him to temporarily set aside his own affairs and come to help. Therefore, contacting Madara Uchiha, who had been lurking in the group since joining, was a crucial piece of insurance.

Uncle Ban might not be able to help for free, but that's okay, we can hire him.

What was lacking in the Naruto Warring States period? Resources, money, and food! While Miss Fox lacked all of these, she had plenty of money! Lots and lots of gold coins!

If something can be solved with gold coins, then it's not a problem!

"...But the problem is, Mr. Ban is ignoring me." This is extremely awkward. Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice; having money but nowhere to spend it is also problematic.

Newbie just there to fill a spot: _(′?`」∠)_ Ah... Master Ban is ignoring me...

Grocery store owner: Just filling in the numbers. Look at what time it is now.

Newbie just there to fill a spot: ...

Paid newbie: Hmm, if our times were still synchronized...

Noelle: The time is now 2:37:23 AM, it just passed.

A seventeen-year-old girl: Has it gotten this late without me even realizing it?

Seventeen-year-old girl: No, I'm going to sleep now, staying up too late is bad for my skin~

Newbie here to fill in the blanks: Farewell, Purple Mom, watch out for menopause!

Grocery store owner: It really is time to take a break.

Grocery store owner: I checked, and there's no time limit for signing up for this mission; you can sign up anytime.

General store owner: If we can't get in touch with Uchiha Madara at this time, let's try contacting him again during the day.

Newbie just there to fill a spot: Yeah, I've been chatting in the group for over an hour without even realizing it!

Newbie just there to make up the numbers: Time flies!

Paid newbie: Indeed

Newbie here to fill in: Goodnight everyone, I should go catch up on some sleep too, this fight really took a toll on my energy...

Noelle: ...?

"Ahhh~ Ahhhhh~" She stretched. She hadn't noticed until this topic came up, but now that it was mentioned, Miss Fox clearly felt sleepy. She needed to rest.

But the wine placed in front of Miss Fox Spirit was not short, and she wanted to drink it all back (on the way to the inn). Thinking about it made her even sleepier.

"Eek!?" Suddenly startled, Miss Fox felt her foot touch something icy cold and shivered instantly. Looking down, she saw it was water. It was an underground river that had spread upwards. In the hour she had been swimming, the gushing underground water had cooled the surrounding area, filled the craters created by the Crimson Cannon, and continued to spread upwards, touching Miss Fox's foot.

At this rate of rise, it won't be long before a huge lake forms here.

"Where did all this water come from to form this lake..." Shaking her head, Miss Fox, who didn't know much about such things, didn't think about it much... She was so sleepy that she couldn't think about it anymore.

For Miss Fox right now, the most important thing is to get back to her room, then collapse into bed and recharge her energy.

"Ah!! What bit my butt again!" She jerked her head up, clutching her backside. This time, the pain was far worse than any she'd experienced before! It felt like a piece of flesh had been torn off! 'My foolish master,' the Zanpakuto, Fan Gu, approached the fox, brandishing its blade to urge her to look down. 'Your companion seems to have come back to life. For the past half hour, she's been biting your butt intermittently. She might be a pervert. I think you need to reconsider whether you still want to be friends with her, my master.'

"Huh?" Miss Fox was taken aback. Looking down, she saw Evilue, with a red mark on her face that she didn't know what had happened, glaring at her fiercely.

"It really came back to life!?"

Miss Fox was terrified and trembling as she reached out a finger to check Ibiruai's breathing: "Don't come looking for me if you've come back to life! I'm actually a little afraid of ghosts..." She was a little afraid of ghosts because she wasn't sure if she could actually hit one.

But if ghosts could do it, the outcome would be different.

"What? Still not breathing. Thank goodness it didn't come back to life... Ah!!" My finger! My finger got bitten!

"Oh no! Am I going to get infected with some weird virus?! A zombie virus that infects others through rap?!"

"You vile, despicable elf! I'm a vampire! Vampires are bastards who don't need to breathe!!" Evilue said viciously, biting the fox lady's finger.

"well!?"...

...

The next day. Aoyama develops a mental illness.

Aoyama woke up from his sleep feeling energetic. He woke up naturally at seven o'clock in the morning without feeling sleepy or wanting to stay in bed. His sleep quality last night was excellent.

"...The only downside is that I woke up in a mental hospital." The thought of my current situation gives me a headache.

Thanks to the mission rewards, Aoyama's damaged brain was restored, and he regained his sanity. However, to be discharged from the hospital, he still needs a series of examinations and a large number of applications to be approved. Only after it is fully confirmed that Aoyama has truly recovered can he leave.

The past few days of regaining his senses have been incredibly stifling for Qingshan.

"Just bear with it, it'll only take a few days," Aoyama comforted himself.

At times like this, all he can do is rely on the "spiritual victory" mentality. After all, he doesn't have the ability to change anything.

Besides, instead of spending time thinking about these things, it's better to go to the group and see if you can get some good stuff, or see the people you want to see get humiliated.

"99+!?" This was something Aoyama hadn't expected.

Last night before bed, he was constantly stalking the screen, occasionally chiming in with a few words. As a result, the message count jumped to 99+. But when I checked, it was far more than 99+—a terrifying 999+ messages! Good heavens, a bunch of sleepless night owls!

"Wait a minute? What's with Noelle's head in the group file!?"

No way, no way, no way! Did Noelle somehow mislead the group members, anger everyone, and then get her head chopped off and thrown into the group files?!

The world is going to the dogs...

"Wait? There's a new mission!?" Group missions are usually highlighted in bold in obvious places, making them easy to spot. Qingshan was no exception; after glancing at the group files, he quickly noticed the mission description in the group announcement.

But Aoyama didn't go to see it.

He lost his position as group leader because of a failed mission, while the newbie who was just there to fill a spot was able to take over because of their outstanding performance in the previous mission, thus becoming a candidate for group leader.

As long as the newbie who's just there to make up the numbers isn't the group leader, he still has a chance.

"A mission! It's an opportunity!" Without even reading it carefully, he clicked to sign up!

Chapter 127 Qingshan Believes in Love

Passing through the same portal as before, Aoyama arrived once again in the world where he had previously stumbled.

But this time it's different; this time, Aoyama came prepared.

Before coming, I searched for all the familiar terms and thoroughly studied the general setting and characters of Overlord. I also briefly went through the main storyline of this world, traded some food with other mentally ill people for some leather armor, dressed up like an adventurer from another world, and then crossed the portal. I even wore a mask.

Absolutely foolproof. I'm sure I'll perform well in this mission, become a candidate for group leader, regain the position, rectify the group's atmosphere, and take control of the chat group back into my own hands.

If I fail, and am replaced by a newbie who's just there to fill a spot, looked down upon by newbies who've paid for the game, and have my character's persona ruined by Noelle's chat group, then I might as well quit!

"Hmph! This mission will allow me to reclaim everything I've lost!" Qingshan said firmly, raising his fist.

Then he began to look around at his surroundings.

This seems to be someone's room. The floor-to-ceiling windows are large and luxurious, and the decorations on the balcony outside are also beautiful, immediately drawing attention to this area. The room's decor and furnishings are very cozy, with a delicate little round table and several small chairs placed in the corner, giving it the feel of a noble lady's bedroom. The overall color scheme is warm and comfortable, without being too jarring.

"Could I have accidentally wandered into some noble lady's room...?" Aoyama broke out in a cold sweat. If he were discovered like that, he wouldn't be able to explain himself no matter how many mouths he had.

No! Calm down, Aoyama!

The portal to this world was opened by the world's consciousness near the location of the group members. It was like that last time, so there's no reason it wouldn't be the same this time. It's likely that some newbie was just there to make up the numbers, which is why he was teleported here.

So calm down and find the newbies who are just there to fill the group. Unlike the paying newbies, even if he's no longer the group admin and his persona has been disrupted by the newcomer Noelle, his attitude towards him has only become a little awkward. Deep down, he still has feelings for him. At least if you flatter him a bit and show him a bright future, things can definitely go back to how they were before.
