"If this elf is still at the city-level power, then there's nothing to worry about."
Raingrain Hasward bowed his head in reply.
"Yes, if it's just this kind of power, there's nothing to worry about."
In Konoha Village, in front of the chairs at Ichiraku Ramen stall.
Hinata Hyuga turned around and stared quietly at the sky.
"Elves, what exquisite creatures they are."
"I wonder how strong they are."
"If it's still just at the city level, maybe with a little effort, I can get onto this list too."
Sakura stood beside her with her hands behind her back, shook her head, and denied her idea.
"Ordinary ninjas like us shouldn't even think about it."
"The leaderboards are too far removed from our lives."
The text in the sky changed again.
Rinne Sonogami has no physical form; she is a pure entity composed of spiritual energy.
She lives within a self-created utopian barrier, wielding absolute control over everything within it. Anyone enveloped by the barrier known as the Paradise of Calamity will fall under her complete control.
This barrier can expand dramatically; in its final form, it could almost contain an entire country.
[As long as she remains within the barrier of the Calamity Paradise, Sonogami Rinne has no weaknesses.]
[Combat Strength Rating: National Level C]
Inside the coffee shop.
Quiet.
Everyone, including the demons, fell silent.
They stared intently at the last column of the large, golden characters, the one for standard strength level.
"National level!"
Demiurge spoke in an almost incredulous voice, trembling and hoarse.
"Could this be interpreted as meaning that a single strike could destroy a country?"
Ainz Ooal Gown, Gilgamesh, and Nanoha Takamachi all frowned.
All three of them were city-level entities, so I assumed that the others would also be city-level entities.
Even if it isn't, it won't be much better.
But this sudden leap from the city level to the national level was something they simply couldn't accept.
A country and a city are two completely different concepts.
Although in some regions, a country may only have one city.
But most countries in the world have dozens or even hundreds of cities.
Some countries even have more than a thousand cities.
What is this concept?
It completely transcends the concept.
Nanoha Takamachi was the most somber, her good mood from just topping the charts completely gone.
Although I am only one rank below Rinne Sonogami.
However, the difference in strength between them is almost a hundred times or more.
Chapter Fifteen: The Difference Isn't That Big (Seeking Flowers and Recommendations)
The golden characters in the sky continued to change.
[Battle Power Ranking Reward: Rank 47, Sonogami Rinne's Spirit Heart]
[Family Reward: Obtain random spirit equipment.]
On the highway in the 7th school district of Academy City.
A truck loaded with a huge shipping container was suddenly attacked, and an explosion occurred on the ground in front of it.
The entire truck fell from a great height.
The container was completely shattered, exposing the contents inside.
This is a huge sphere emitting a blue light.
Nothing can get close to it.
It cannot cause it the slightest harm.
Whether it was the wreckage of the broken truck or the shockwave from the explosion.
Suddenly, a golden light appeared ahead.
Slowly approaching the sphere of light.
The previously still cyan sphere began to tremble.
It slowly transformed into a woman of unparalleled beauty, whose appearance was identical to that of Rinne, the Garden Goddess in the sky.
She is the embodiment of spirits, the Garden Goddess Rinne. For some unknown reason, the sphere of light that she transformed from in slumber was transported to this academy city.
The ball of light slowly unfolded in her hand, transforming into a colorful heart-shaped crystal.
"Is this the Heart of the Elf?"
"With it, can I become a complete elf?"
Rinne Sonogami, her cherry lips slightly parted from beneath her veil, uttered a question.
With a thought, the Heart of the Elf flew into her chest and merged with her, becoming one with her.
A moment later, her body underwent a strange change.
The once ethereal body became solid.
Rinne Sonogami was very happy, turned around, and looked at her brand new self.
"Is this the reward for the Heavenly Ranking?"
A moment later, Rinne Sonogami decided to experience a normal life and flew towards the neighborhood ahead.
Inside the coffee shop.
It took everyone a while to recover from their shock.
Not only were the subordinates and lowly henchmen shocked, but even someone like Fate, whose strength was close to that of a top-ranked expert, was genuinely astonished.
"impossible!"
"Absolutely impossible!"
"How could someone possibly destroy a country with a single blow?"
"From the perspective of our planet's technological concepts, it is absolutely impossible for a human body to withstand the kind of magical power that could destroy a country."
Shalltear, the true progenitor of vampires, also strongly agreed.
"That's right, a country of this size is simply unimaginable."
"The jump from 48th to 47th place is too big!"
The others nodded in agreement.
At the national level, this has probably entered the realm of gods.
In their minds, only a god could destroy a country with a single blow.
Seeing the incredulous expressions on everyone's faces, Ainz Ooal Gown reassured them:
Whether it's true or not, this elf should be very far away from us.
"Besides, I don't think we can always completely trust everything on the Heavenly Ranking."
"How much stronger do you think this national-level city is compared to our city-level city?"
Gilgamesh remained silent; of course, he wouldn't answer such a question.
Nanoha Takamachi shook her head.
"I don't know, maybe it's a hundred times ours?"
Ainz immediately shook his head in denial.
"How could it be that exaggerated?"
"Imagine if there really were a hundred times the strength, would there be such a large gap in power between you and the forty-seventh?"
"The world is so big, isn't there anyone who happens to be in this range?"
"If it exists, then it should be on the list."
"So, I bet the difference isn't that big."
Everyone nodded in agreement, finding it to be very reasonable.
After all, if the difference in strength is too great, there must be others. A gap of one hundred times might exist in a small region, but it's almost impossible in a world as large as the world.
Cocytes nodded in agreement.
Although the memory of his previous humiliation is still fresh, let's keep things separate.
He unconditionally supports everything Lord Ainz says.
"Lord Ainz, I estimate the difference is at most one or two times."
"This country is probably one of those small countries with only one or two city-states."
"I even think that if Lord Ainz and Lord Takamachi team up, they can defeat this forty-seventh person."
The peanuts had just fallen.
Suddenly, a shout from an ordinary person came from around the corner of the coffee shop.
