Before I transmigrated, I didn't realize how shameless Ah Hu was when we chatted online. I never expected that Ah Hu would be so brazen in real life.
"What happened to being socially anxious like me?"
Miss Fox suddenly realized, "Oh right, I think I'm socially awkward!"
As she gained more experience, Miss Fox became increasingly bold (and shameless), while her social anxiety was gradually being torn away.
This is a natural thing.
"Whatever happens, happens. The important thing is, can you find someone more suitable than me? Socially awkward Kiyohime?"
Naya: "The doctor said she's coming. She said she's more suitable than you, the elf who just scared someone once."
Miss Fox: "......"
I admit that now that I'm a PhD, it's more appropriate for me to interact with them.
But I suspect you're plotting against me!
Naya was speechless. Who was it that was so excited to go downstairs and scare people just now?
In short, no matter how much Miss Fox teases Nyarli, Iserline has already begun making contact with the main characters.
Hmm, probably the main characters.
Iselin wasn't entirely sure either, but this setup really seemed to suit the main characters.
A slightly naive but clever female college student, a cold-faced man with a secret, and Lu Ren, an ordinary man with a mysterious presence.
"Who are you?" The cold-faced man pulled a baton from his pocket the moment Icelyn approached, and said warily, "You're not one of the participants in this round of the game!"
Participants?
Iselin glanced at the shirt and jeans under her white lab coat and nodded knowingly.
So that's how it is. It's because their clothing and appearance are in a 21st-century style that they were mistaken for something else disguised as a participant.
Iselin explained, "Don't misunderstand, I'm not some mysterious species. I just came to find out about some things."
The cold-faced man raised an eyebrow, and after seeing that Iselin still seemed like a normal human being, he slowly asked, "Do you know the situation?"
“Yes, I understand.” Iselin nodded. “You were just about to explain this to them, right? Would you mind if I listened in?”
Are you spying on us?
"Not really, it's just that one of my companions can access the map..."
"Then why don't you just keep eavesdropping!"
"Passively eavesdropping on information is never as convenient as actively asking, is it?"
Iselin gave what she thought was a friendly smile.
The brief conversation was pretty much the limit of her social skills.
Whether before or after she transmigrated, she wasn't the type of person who was good at socializing.
However, compared to the fun-loving fox who is almost evolving into a one-sided social terrorist, and the ultimate autistic socially anxious otaku Kiyoki, she is the most suitable one who is neither here nor there.
To sum it up in one word: What a tragedy!
"...In that case, what do you want to know?" The cold-faced man relented.
This relieved Iserline.
This should be considered a satisfactory consensus.
"Thank you so much! I'd like to know how much you know about this world!" After glancing at the chat group, Iselin immediately followed the procedure and asked the group members for their guidance.
The cold-faced man's face twitched; he almost didn't understand what he meant.
After composing himself, he replied, "I only escaped unscathed because the timing was too coincidental; I don't know much about the specifics."
escape?
This word is very interesting; it sounds like it contains a lot of information.
Sora and Conan, who were receiving synchronized information in the group, noticed this word immediately.
Fortunately, the cold-faced man didn't bother with any beating around the bush and stated it directly:
"When that traitor stripped humanity of its power, I had only drunk half of the potion and had not yet fully entered the realm of the extraordinary. Therefore, humanity did not disappear after losing its path to advancement and escaped a calamity."
"But similarly, since I am also a newcomer about to enter the realm of the extraordinary, I don't know much about it."
"All we know is that humanity has always been fighting against the mysterious, and has even achieved a form of suppression. We just need to follow the steps to resolve this crisis that has been looming over us since the birth of life on Earth."
"And, the fact that humanity's progress in suppressing the mysterious is closely related to the level of technological development."
Iselin was startled and almost blurted out the word "collapse".
However, upon closer reflection, the relevant relationship should be that the more advanced human technology becomes, the weaker the mystery becomes.
Newbie commenter: That makes sense. The power of the mysterious lies in the unknown, and science is about exploring the unknown. When humanity transforms the unknown into the known, the mysterious naturally weakens.
『 』(empty): I just didn't expect that when the mysterious gained the upper hand, it would cause human society to regress from the 21st century back to the 19th century.
Conan Edogawa: Has science, which has already advanced, regressed?
A seventeen-year-old girl: It seems the key is the incident where humans lost their path to advancement.
One person, two roles: Kiyohime
Ordinary passerby: The world of eerie creatures is no place for humans. (wiping sweat)
Celine Kaslana: Can I ask about the specifics?
Kamen Rider Anti-Entropy: ...He said he didn't know much.
After all, the cold-faced man survived because he was still a newcomer, so it's difficult to have a clear understanding of many details.
"I know the general outline of what happened."
"At that time, the traitor came from another world. At first, he marveled at the beauty of the 21st century and stood on the side of humanity against the mystery."
"However, once that traitor learned about the path to human advancement, he revealed his true colors and sinister intentions!"
"He somehow stole humanity's path to advancement!"
"It's like all the data that humanity has accumulated over thousands of years has been deleted. Overnight, all the superhumans disappeared, humanity lost its ability to resist the mysterious, and human technology regressed rapidly!"
"Countless people died tragically!!"
At the height of his excitement, the cold-faced man slammed his fist on the bookshelf, nearly knocking it over. Luckily, the bookshelf was against the wall, so it was unharmed.
Iselin tentatively asked, "Then...who is that traitor?"
"Ye Qing!" the cold-faced man gritted his teeth.
"That traitor, that bastard, his name is Ye Qing! I will never forget him!!"
Ye Qing?
Newbie just there to fill the numbers: Hmm...this name sounds familiar?
Seven-Colored Leopard Leaps Over Jade: It's normal for the surname Ye to feel familiar; it's one of the five major surnames in fantasy. /Eating melon seeds
Sirin Kaslana: No, I think I just heard that name not long ago.
Newbie just there to make up the numbers: Indeed
∠( ? 」∠)_
But no matter how much Miss Fox thought about it or tried to recall, she couldn't quite remember where she had heard the name Ye Qing before.
I only remember that I promised someone that I would say hello to them or something.
hiss...
The problem seems to have gotten worse.

Chapter 1118 Restrictions Lifted
Newbie (just there to fill a spot): Things have suddenly gotten much more serious!
Conan Edogawa: More than that, human society has been forced back two centuries. Humans are utterly powerless against the mysterious.
Qi Pu Guiyue: Just chop him up! That Ye Qing!
Noelle: You need to find out where someone is before you can even kill them.
『 』 (empty): Depriving humans of their path to advancement is no simple matter; it concerns the very nature of the world's consciousness.
Newbie (just filling in the numbers): Yeah, no wonder I couldn't connect to the world's consciousness. It's probably been put into a deep sleep, or something else.
Newbie just filling in the numbers: Basically, everything is going wrong for Kiyohime.
One person, two roles: Kiyohime: (?o?; sigh)
Kamen Rider Against Entropy: I never expected the news to be so explosive.
Dongquan Fire Wine: Can Ah Hu beat him?
Ordinary Passerby A: The group owner is definitely fine, after all, this is the group owner!
Seventeen-year-old girl: Yes, this is the group owner!
Newbie just filling in the numbers: ∠( ? 」∠)_
Newbie just there to make up the numbers: Even if you guys stir things up, there's still a very high chance I can't win.
Everyone here is my wife: Taking away the human advancement path was probably something Ye Qing thought would be useful to him, so he did it.
Silver-haired Saigao: Then can we give humanity a new system?
Sirin Kaslana: It's too late.
Sirin Kaslana: The conflict between humanity and the mysterious will affect the structure of human society. It might not even spread halfway before everyone forgets it due to the regression of the times. After all, the systems in the group files are not systems that can be quickly mastered and that can specifically counter the mysterious.
Kamen Rider Anti-Entropy: Now we need to know the game organizers' stance and information.
Based on the information currently available, the organizers of this game seem to be good people.
It protected a portion of the population from the effects of social regression, preventing humanity in the 21st century from completely disappearing.
Although I don't know the purpose behind this, let's just put it in the position of an allied force for now.
