Narcissism

"Where am I?"

"What's happening?!"

"This is kidnapping! Quickly return me home, or I'll sue this reality show in court! Don't doubt my words, my father is a powerful figure in the government!"

"I'm not dreaming, am I?"

At the same time, other Aggressors randomly appeared in various locations in the Konosuba World.

Their reactions varied, some cursed, others were angry, anxious, restless, disbelieving, worried, fearful, and so on. Overall, they displayed negative emotions.

Only a few Aggressors remained calm or joyful.

Among these rare Aggressors, one appeared in an empty house in the capital of the Elroad Kingdom.

This Aggressor was a tall, incredibly handsome young man. He looked like a living doll with smooth skin, exuding an elegant presence.

"Hahaha... I, Lin Fan, the True Son of Destiny! With the Ten Shadows Technique, I will rank first and dominate the entire Paradise!"

The young man named Lin Fan laughed heartily.

His self-confidence stemmed from the Starter's Package he received, the Zenin Clan's Inherited Technique, the Ten Shadows Technique!

The anime Jujutsu Kaisen was quite popular in China, and Lin Fan had watched it himself.

Even the main antagonist, the Cursed King Sukuna, praised the Ten Shadows Technique. Lin Fan now possessed the Ten Shadows Technique and considered himself invincible.

Moreover, the Ten Shadows Technique was of Red Grade. Lin Fan didn't think other Aggressors had Red Grade skills.

"Wealth, throne, women. From now on, I will gain the glory that I couldn't achieve in the real world."

"By the way, there are many beautiful women in the Konosuba World. With my unparalleled handsomeness, it shouldn't be difficult to make them fall in love with me, right? It's decided, Aqua, Lalatina, Iris, Yunyun, Wiz, Eris, and other beautiful girls will be part of my Crystal Palace."

"Hahahaha..."

With narcissistic behavior, Lin Fan unwittingly drooled as he fantasized about bedding the dream girls of otakus.

In one of the cities in the Brydle Kingdom, a young woman suddenly appeared near a lake.

Fortunately, there were no people around at the moment. Otherwise, her appearance would cause a sensation because of her beauty, which could captivate young men.

The young woman was none other than an Aggressor.

She was short and slender, with long blond hair with bangs straight to the side, peach-white skin, and blue eyes.

She looked like she was 14 years old. Although she was the youngest Aggressor among the others, she remained calm while observing her surroundings.

"I need information." She said softly with a melodious voice.

After that, she decided to seek information in the city.

Her Starter's Package contained a Red Grade skill, Asuna's (SAO) Template. Therefore, she wasn't worried about anything bad happening to her.

"Wow, this is like medieval Europe... It's funny, I've never been out of town, but now I'm in a different world. Life is so unpredictable."

Raka admired the houses made of red bricks with medieval European architecture. Besides, he could see the royal palace in the distance.

At this point, his clothes were similar to those worn by ordinary people in this world. So, he didn't stand out in the crowd.

"Great, language isn't a barrier. It seems like Paradise's doing so Aggressors don't have to spend time learning the local language."

Standing still, Raka listened to the conversations around him. He sighed in relief knowing he understood the language of this world.

"If I'm not mistaken, the adventurer registration fee is around 1000 eris..."

After pondering for a moment, Raka decided to copy Aqua's way of receiving offerings from the followers of the Eris Religion.

"1000 eris isn't much, it should be fine if I borrow, right?"

To survive, Raka decided to have no shame. Moreover, the penalty for failing a Quest was severe, DEATH.

Dignity and shame were not worth mentioning in front of survival.

"Excuse me, I'm new to this town, may I ask for directions to the Church of Eris?"

Stopping a pedestrian, Raka asked politely.

"Oh, are you a follower of Goddess Eris?"

"That's correct. I want to pray and ask for luck from Goddess Eris."

"Is that so."

Hearing this, the man didn't suspect at all and began to give the correct directions.

The Eris Cult was the national belief of the Belzerg Kingdom. Almost all of the people and nobles were followers of Goddess Eris, the Goddess of Luck.

"Thank you very much, sir."

"Yes, good luck."

Then, Raka walked towards the Church of Eris.

(Compared to the Eris Cult, I prefer the philosophy of the Axis Cult. Hmm... Ah, I remember!)

(If you can escape from something disgusting, it doesn't mean you've lost because sometimes escaping is a way to win. The answer that comes after doubt is usually something you'll regret no matter what choice you make; if you're going to regret it, do the easiest thing for now.)

(Don't be afraid of getting old, even gods don't know if you'll be happy in the future. At least you should be happy now.)

According to Raka, that philosophy suited him, an ordinary person without big ambitions. Unfortunately, the Axis Cult had a bad reputation and was considered a heretical sect because its followers were full of weird people.

(Well, considering who the goddess of the Axis Cult is, it's not surprising that its followers are mentally retarded.)

"...!!!"

He stopped thinking about the Axis Cult when he saw a beautiful woman with long ears.

An Elf!

It was the first time Raka had seen an Elf race outside of fiction works. He quickly averted his gaze, worried that his behavior would be misunderstood as voyeuristic.

(That's a Demi-Human race!)

Among the crowd, some women had animal features like cat ears and tails. Of course, there were also Demi-Human men, but Raka didn't even look at them.

Men with animal ears and tails?

Not cute at all!

"As expected from the frontline of the war, high-level adventurers are everywhere, their equipment quality is much better than adventurers in Axel City."

Although Raka had never been to Axel City, he had watched the Konosuba anime.

(Haaa... Why did my appearance location have to be one of the most dangerous places in this world?) He complained inwardly.

From the previous conversation, Raka knew this city was the capital of the Belzerg Kingdom.

The Belzerg Kingdom was the only country whose borders overlapped with the Devil King's Territory.

This caused inevitable confrontations between the Devil King's forces and the Belzerg Kingdom.

No wonder high-level adventurers throughout the Belzerg Kingdom or most adventurers worldwide, they were all concentrated here to fight the Devil King's forces that wanted to dominate the world.

Neighboring countries sent troops to join the border guards and also provide war supplies. After all, if the Belzerg Kingdom fell, then it would be their turn to face the invasion of the Devil King.

"Finally arrived."

Standing in front of the grand church, Raka watched people coming and going, the church activity bustling.

Entering the church, there was a queue.

He obediently joined the line, waiting for his turn to meet the pastor.
