The imperial family she belonged to was already on the verge of decay, and uprisings were not uncommon.
However, the team that received high-level attention this time is no ordinary team; it is the "original protagonist group" of this world.
In fact, both Esdeath and the main characters hope to continue the country in their own way.
Ultimately, different identities lead to different considerations, and thus, different paths.
However, such disagreements will inevitably lead to a fight to the death between the two sides.
But Shiraishi's appearance will be able to break this situation.
Shiraishi River: This force is different; they are not the kind of people who use a banner to just plunder and enjoy themselves.
Esdeath: The intelligence I've received does indeed indicate that they will punish evildoers.
Esdeath: But how did Shiraishi-kun know...? After all, they are gods. Well then, I'll listen to you and try to contact them.
Esdeath closed the private chat and group chat pages and stepped out of the tent.
She now somewhat understands what it meant for those kings in history to love their wives more than their kingdoms.
In the past, she wanted to centralize power within this empire's system and become the highest being in both social and biological terms.
However, Shiraishi's appearance did indeed give her the first impulse to give up all worldly glory and fame, or even elope and leave.
Besides Esdeath, Shiraishikawa also received private messages from other group members; the gears of these worlds' storylines, after a brief period of silence, began to mesh and turn.
Chapter 277: The Adorable Side of the Silly Goddess, Protecting a City for One Person!
After Esdeath, the first to bombard Shiraishikawa's private chat page with a barrage of messages was none other than the idiot goddess.
Aqua: Hey, is Shiraishi-kun there?
Shiraishikawa: zzz.
Aqua: Stop pretending to be asleep!
Shiraishi River: This goddess, is she trying to borrow my points?
Aqua: My true feelings are all showing!
Aqua: This is serious business, you know. I, the goddess, am personally delivering a message to you. Feel honored, aren't you?
Shiraishi River: If we're really going to argue about this, it seems like I'm your superior...
But that's precisely what makes the silly goddess so adorable. She's unpretentious with everyone, which makes the atmosphere very relaxed.
Aqua: Anyway, I ran into Megumin. She's been practicing magic lately and wanted to show you again.
Aqua: She said she hasn't seen you for the past few days, wondering if you've gone on an adventure somewhere without taking her with you or something.
Ever since he copied Megumin's skills last time, Shiraishikawa has been busy with things in this world.
It's true that the time intervals between the plot developments in the Konosuba world are quite long.
In addition, Axel is a "starter village" with a relatively peaceful surrounding environment.
Although there are monsters in the wild, they are creatures that even novice adventurers can easily deal with.
Although a demon king also exists, the area where they fight is far from the city of Axel, so it is basically unaffected.
Shiraishi River: Then I'll go there soon.
Shiraishichuan: There's one more thing. Did you notice anything unusual when you went back and forth?
Aqua: Hmm... unusual? Everyone's saying that the temperature has dropped more than in previous years.
Shiraishichuan: Our chat group's world time should be synchronized, right?
Aqua: I don't know if it's because there are too many snow fairies, even though it's only the beginning of autumn.
Aqua: So now the guild has posted a quest to hunt down the Snow Elves.
Sure enough, it came.
Shiraishikawa knew very well that the snow elves were actually the subjects of General Winter, which was clearly a sign that General Winter was about to appear!
Once a certain number of snow elves are defeated, they will be targeted and hunted down by General Winter.
As its name suggests, it is a monster possessing the power of ice.
"Even if it's not very powerful, it might be a good choice as a prototype for a vessel of pleasure companions."
If you use subspace psionic energy to summon familiars every time, it will also consume resources for Shiraishikawa.
However, if one could corrupt a target into becoming a member of their kin, the problem could be solved once and for all.
Unlike believers, chosen ones, and those of God, the joyful retinue are purely spiritual servants of the god of joy.
Just as I was thinking this, a private message from the "Holy Sword Wielder" pulled my scattered thoughts back to reality.
Liselia: Shiraishi-kun, thanks to your help, the Seventh Tactical City survived the Great Uprising safely and has recently completed the repair work!
Shiraishi River: It's good that it didn't cause too much turmoil.
Shiraishikawa: That was also the first time my family members participated in a battle, so it was a valuable reference for me in terms of team battles.
Li Xieliya: Yes, it's all thanks to Shiraishi-kun.
Shiraishikawa: You live there too, and for your sake, this city cannot fall.
Hearing that it was said so directly, Lischelia felt both shy and excited.
To save a city for one person—this was a plot that only appeared in the novels that Lischelia had read before.

"To be chosen by Shiraishi-kun is such a blessing..."
Li Xieliya: Actually, this time I wanted to invite Shiraishi-kun to come to my world again.
Liselia: I heard that members of the royal family are coming to commend our Seventh Tactical City for its outstanding achievements.
Shiraishi-kun: Is he royalty?
Liselia: If Shiraishi-kun isn't there, then no one deserves to receive this kind of treatment.
The so-called royal family refers to the ruling family of a unified human empire.
The representative who came this time was the fourth princess, Arteria.
She will gather the Holy Sword Masters of the Seventh Tactical City to host a banquet.
Shiraishikawa knew that, according to the plot, someone would be doing something underhanded behind the scenes.
Shiraishikawa might not care about other places, but he has already regarded the Seventh Tactical City as the first stop for his corruption.
That was his designated realm of joyful chaos, and naturally he wouldn't allow anyone to disrupt the order.
Just as he agreed to this, another invitation came from "Princess Red Lotus".
Fortunately, the date is more flexible compared to the nearby banquet.
Pojun Academy is holding a selection competition for the Seven Star Sword Dance Festival, and Stella hopes that Shiraishi Kawa can attend.
As a princess, Stella is admired by many, but she is also inevitably seen as a target.
Some people even set their sights on defeating Stella, this powerful and beautiful woman.
Naturally, after joining the chat group, Stella's abilities had already far surpassed her initial level.
Stella: I will definitely win the championship, and I hope Shiraishi-kun can cheer me on from the audience!
What girl wouldn't want her crush to see her glamorous side?
Chapter 278: Let's build a family with Stella! Actually, we don't need to bring the little umbrella.
Shiraishi River: Of course.
Shiraishi Chuan: But even if you care about rankings, you should also care about your safety and health.
Styling Eryin San 0 Pa (2) La: Shiraishi-kun...you already know?
Shiraishikawa: You've been going back and forth between the underground city and Fuyuki City these past few days, haven't you? Don't think I didn't notice.
As a deity, it's impossible for him not to know where his chosen ones have gone.
In the world of DanDan, you can sense the relative position of each person to know their coordinates.
Moreover, Fuyuki City is located in the subspace, which makes this even clearer.
Stella will clear out all the monsters in a certain area of the underground labyrinth and then travel to Fuyuki during the time difference of the "487" regeneration.
This continued, with a very high intensity of training every day.
Stella: I don't want to miss this opportunity.
Shiraishi Chuan: It's only the first year of school, so taking a year to settle down isn't necessarily a bad thing.
Stella: If we could improve our strength sooner, the country could be protected sooner.
Stella's personality dictates that she is unwilling to settle for the status quo and do nothing.
When she first awakened the Dragon Sin Sword, she was unable to control its power well due to her mental strength, and instead burned herself several times.
Even if she decided to give up becoming a Bladebreaker and simply live her life as an ordinary princess, it would have been a normal choice.
Stella spent several years painstakingly growing to the point where she could control her own powers.
Stella: Besides that, I don't want Shiraishi-kun to see my bad side.
Shiraishikawa: I'd be happy if you showed me your bad side.
Stella: Huh? What does Shiraishi-kun mean...?
Shiraishi Chuan: Because you are already dazzling enough in the eyes of others, there is no need for you to put on a brave face in front of me.
Shiraishikawa: Showing your vulnerability to your god is a privilege you have as a family member!
Family is undoubtedly a more intimate and profound presence than romantic partners.
Aside from blood ties, people who are not initially related by blood naturally need to build a family as a prerequisite.
This is also the final connection that Stella, as a young woman in the throes of puberty, most wants to achieve with her other half.
Stella: I... I understand. You'd better be prepared from now on and don't dislike me!
Shiraishikawa: Also, you don't need to carry a small umbrella in your backpack. As the god of pleasure, you can certainly control that aspect.
