Multiverse Chat Group

When Tomoya Aki realized that his idol was also interested in otaku culture, he was extremely excited. He believed that by showcasing his deep knowledge of otaku culture, he could get along with her and even make her admire him, thus becoming Eriri's only confidant.

He rushed over to Eriri's desk, intending to "enlighten" her. Seeing that Eriri's gaze remained on her manga, ignoring him entirely, he began enthusiastically talking about manga and game-related otaku topics on his own, trying to showcase his "extensive knowledge" and attract Eriri's attention.

However, Tomoya Aki's actions did not capture Eriri's attention. Instead, they drew the attention of their classmates, who stopped what they were doing and turned their eyes toward Eriri.

The previously noisy classroom suddenly became quiet, with only Tomoya Aki's voice still echoing, unaware that the classmates' eyes on him had changed from curiosity to disdain and anger.

The classmates felt that Tomoya Aki's behavior was offensive to their cherished "Ice Princess," and they all prepared to stop him, hoping to make a good impression on Eriri and win her favor.

Ultimately, it was Eriri's cold reprimand that halted Tomoya Aki's showy performance, stopping the classmates from intervening. The invisible pressure left Tomoya Aki frozen in place.

Realizing the hostility from the surrounding classmates, Tomoya Aki lowered his head, trying to hide, and then retreated to his seat amid the classmates' mocking glances, feeling dejected.

As the incident quickly spread around the school, it further solidified Eriri's title as the "Ice Princess."

...

As for the incredible transformation that happened to Eriri, it began when she turned five years old. Her body seemed to activate an extraordinary ability to absorb an unknown cosmic energy from the environment, enabling her to evolve to a higher level of existence.

As this ability strengthened, five-year-old Eriri transformed from a fragile young girl into a figure akin to a humanoid Gundam.

Though her outward appearance remained that of a small, cute girl, the power hidden within her was immense. At the time, when Eriri couldn't fully control her power, she accidentally destroyed half of her room, which greatly alarmed the Sawamura couple. It wasn't until a year later that Eriri gradually mastered and adapted to the growing power within her.

Although the reason behind Eriri's transformation was unclear, medical examinations showed no abnormalities in her condition. On the contrary, her health improved significantly.

Because this transformation didn't harm Eriri and with the Sawamura couple's extraordinary acceptance, they quickly adapted to their daughter suddenly becoming extremely powerful.

Since the cosmic energy absorbed by Eriri was unobservable, and with the Sawamura couple's efforts to conceal her changes, no strange rumors about Eriri spread outside.

The energy gathered and flowed within Eriri's body, purging impurities and having a profound transformative effect.

These energies continuously strengthened Eriri's physique, making her even more beautiful and flawless over time. Her once cute face became increasingly perfect, and her skin gradually became blemish-free.

By now, Eriri could sense that her strength surpassed most characters from the works she knew in her previous life, and the power within her continued to grow with time.

However, a problem arose. It was well-known that "Saekano: How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend" was set in a world without any mysterious powers, and yet she had become an anomaly.

In a world where everyone was just an ordinary high school student, with the most skilled fighters being those trained in traditional martial arts or robust athletes, she could now destroy planets with a mere flick of her finger, drastically altering the storyline.

Have you ever seen someone in a non-magical world capable of teleporting without regard to distance, flying freely against the law of gravity, or destroying planets with a touch?

Probably not, right?

But Eriri claimed she could do it now! She seemed to have entered an extraordinary realm.

...

After admiring her beauty in the full-length mirror, a satisfied Eriri returned to her desk and resumed her work on her manga.

Her drawing skills, honed since childhood, had earned her considerable fame in the illustration world. Her pen name, "Kashiwagi Eri," was widely recognized in the otaku community.

After some time, a beautifully drafted yuri sketch gradually emerged on her digital screen. Just as Eriri was about to begin coloring, a message appeared in her consciousness, leaving her stunned.

[The Multiverse Chat Group invites you to join. Do you accept?]

[Yes]

"What the..."

Receiving this unexpected invitation in her consciousness, Eriri was momentarily stunned. In her previous life, she had read many novels about chat groups and knew what the Multiverse Chat Group was all about.

"Could this chat group be my real cheat? Is my invincible ability just an accident? But why did this cheat arrive so late, and how could this chat group possibly enhance my powers as much as my abilities?"

Eriri felt a strong urge to vent, but her inner smugness was evident in her increasingly upturned lips.

"Well... since it's here... I'll accept the invitation!"

Instantly, a "ding" sounded in Eriri's consciousness, and a simple chat window appeared.

[Welcome to the Multiverse Chat Group]

[Kashiwagi Eri has joined the chat]

[The Ashen Witch has joined the chat]

[Ding, the chat group has reached ten members and will now update. Once completed, new group features will be available.]

"Huh??? What's going on? I'm not among the first members? What about my chance to run for group leader? So, this wasn't my cheat after all? Am I just a background character?"

Eriri was dumbfounded once again, and her smile froze.
