Frilian: Starting with Wind Spirit and Moon Shadow, Playing Through the Heavens

"Well, reincarnation isn't so bad... Wait, shouldn't Aqua be in charge of handling reincarnations?"

Ronan suddenly froze, his eyelids twitching involuntarily.

He immediately contacted Aqua to inquire where she had thrown a soul named Kazuma Sato.

Killing the Demon King prematurely, causing Kazuma Sato to lose his chance for adventure, is nothing compared to that.

But it would be really unfair if Aqua tricked him because of this.

Aqua rested her chin on her hand in thought, then slapped her thigh and burst out laughing:

"Haha, are you talking about that NEET guy who thought he was being hit by a tractor while trying to save a girl and ended up dying of fright?"

"I remember it very clearly; he was the most hilarious human I've ever seen die since I became a goddess."

"Since his dream is to stay at home and not go out, and not be scolded by his parents or teachers."

"Then naturally I sent him to a peaceful and beautiful paradise."

Aqua spread her hands out, feigning innocence.

Sure enough, Ronan sighed and rubbed his forehead.

Normally, they should be sent to be reincarnated, but because of a baseless dream, they were sent to heaven.

You should know that paradise in this world is not a good place; it's only a place to chat and bask in the sun forever.

After thinking for a moment, Ronan decided to rescue Kazuma Sato.

Although a human is not worth his trouble, it is still Aqua's dereliction of duty.

Aqua pouted, displeased. What's done is done; you can't take back spilled water.

but……

"Think about your followers, Aqua."

"Sending him to reincarnation, where he will live a life of wealth and honor, shouldn't be too difficult for you, right?"

Upon hearing the word "believers," Aqua's eyes lit up instantly.

She sat up straight. "You should have said so earlier."

What kind of job it is, what kind of rules it follows, are completely unimportant at this moment.

It's just losing one NEET; no one will notice.

Then, Kazuma Sato appeared before Aqua with a look of utter despair in his eyes.

"Eh?"

The incessant chatter of a glowing old man still echoed in my ears.

Before he could say anything or make any judgments, Aqua sent him away directly.

Before he disappeared, he vaguely heard a few words.

"How was my performance? Not bad, right? Remember, three times the amount."

"He'll probably be born into a prestigious family in his next life, and grow up with his childhood sweetheart. Wouldn't that count as exceeding expectations?"

"Hey, how about four times?"

Chapters 243 and 244: A New Main Storyline, the Artifact for Swapping Identity

With Sato Kazuma successfully sent away, Ronan felt a little relieved.

Meanwhile, inside the mansion.

Frillie has successfully reached the maximum level by hunting Golden Farfetch'd.

At this moment, she was lazily leaning against the cushion, playing games with Celie and Ghost Lucy in a casual manner.

This game is called "Dou Mo Wang" (斗魔王), which is an alternate world version of Dou Dizhu (斗地主).

After optimization of the card images and rules, it caused quite a stir in the world as soon as it appeared.

After all, who doesn't want to be a hero?

Just as Frilian transformed into a hero and was about to launch her final "defeat" against the Demon King Celie, a crisp knocking sound suddenly came from downstairs.

dong dong dong.

Frillie looked up at the sound, the cards in her hand hovering in mid-air.

Lucy swayed slightly: "I'll go check it out."

After passing through the floor and going downstairs, Chris, who had come to visit Ronan, came into view.

When Chris first saw the ghost, he was stunned, and then his pupils suddenly contracted.

Instinctively, her right hand gripped the dagger at her waist, a hint of hostility flashing undisguised in her eyes.

But he quickly realized the situation, released his grip, pursed his lips, and muttered to himself:

"Lord Ronan's taste is truly..."

She knew that this was probably another monster that Ronan had kept.

I really don't know how to describe it, it's all just things from the underworld?

She sighed, and after entering the room, she plopped down on the sofa.

A short while later, Darkness arrived as well.

"what?"

Darkness's eyes widened; she clearly hadn't expected Chris to be there.

Chris did the same, her eyebrows raised high.

The two spoke almost simultaneously: "Why did you..."

The words had just left their mouths when they stopped abruptly.

Chris waved his hand, indicating, "Okay, you go first."

As Darkness slowly sat down and recounted the whole story, Chris understood that her father had discovered her adventures.

Although her father did not explicitly express his opposition, as a noblewoman and the only daughter in the family, the issue of inheritance had to be carefully considered.

In order to ensure the continuation of the family line, Darkness's father arranged a blind date for her.

However, Darkness had absolutely no interest in the marriage.

Since she didn't have many friends, she thought she would come here to hear Ronan's or Celia's opinions.

As a married person, I might be able to offer some good ideas on how to ruin this blind date.

“I see.” Chris stroked his chin, seemingly lost in thought.

Because she's married, she knows what guys hate most, no wonder she didn't directly approach her friend.

"So, Chris, what brings you here?"

Darkness blinked, leaned forward, and asked with a face full of curiosity,

"Didn't you go to the capital?"

Chris clenched his fist, coughed twice, and was about to state his purpose.

Just then, Celia slowly walked down the stairs, interrupting their conversation.

The three women exchanged glances, and a tea party among the girls began.

……

Five minutes later, Frillie slowly finished tidying up the card game while yawning, and then strolled downstairs.

As soon as I came downstairs, I saw Chris wave at me and greet me:

"Hey Frillie, how have you been lately? We were just talking about you, are you free lately?"

"Lord Ronan, I wonder when you will return? Would you be interested in accompanying me to the capital?"

Frilian's steps slowly came to a stop. The royal capital?

A hint of confusion flashed in his eyes.

What are we going there for?

Soon, through Chris's explanation, she learned the reason.

As a righteous thief and also an incarnation of the goddess, Chris's actions in the capital were not solely for the purpose of stealing money to help the rich and the poor.

More importantly, she wants to reclaim the artifact that Aqua gave away years ago, which is now missing.

Although most of those artifacts were controlled by the royal family, a small portion were lost to the outside world because the heroes died along the way.

Chris glanced at Darkness subtly, then fixed his gaze on Frillie, his eyes focused, and said earnestly:

“As a devout believer of the goddess, I cannot stand idly by and do nothing about this.”

"I received a divine oracle. The power of those artifacts is extremely strong. Some of them are so powerful that they can even destroy the world."

"Based on the available intelligence, I have determined that there is indeed one in the capital."

"After much thought, the only one who can act with me is you, Lord Ronan."

"Even if the operation fails and you get caught, they won't do anything to you."

Frillie rested her chin on her hand, lost in thought for a moment. So that's how it is…

She seemed to understand Chris's intention.

After a moment's thought, she asked, "Shouldn't we inform Ronan?"

Chris gently shook his head:

"No need. In fact, His Excellency Ronan is also keen on maintaining the stability of this world."

"It was only because I was unaware of the nobleman's identity that I did not use his power to directly demand it."

"..." Frillie frowned slightly, her lips unconsciously pursed, a strange feeling lingering in her heart, though she couldn't quite put her finger on why.

She hesitated for a moment, then pressed on, "You seem to know him very well?"
