Welcome to the Multiverse Group Chat!!!

Chapter 141 ~ Return and New Member

The day of return. 

Standing before the grand entrance of the mansion, Yuuji, Satoru, and Tatsuya stood with their luggages on the ground along with Lelouch, Cecilia, Karen, and Akane. 

“I’ll miss you a lot… I’ll do my best to come back frequently. And don’t hesitate to use the messaging app we installed on your phones to contact me, alright?”

Yuuji hugged Cecilia and Karen tightly, wrapping his arms around their waist, as the two hugged him as well. 

“Yeah…”

Karen responded softly as she gripped her phone tightly with a look of reluctance. 

She had been dreading this day for a long time… She knew that it was inevitable. She had been told that he would need to return to his homeworld after he finished his missions. 

And although he could return anytime he wanted, she understood that he had to live in his own world as well. 

No matter how much they both wanted to, it’ll be impossible for him to stay in this world with her all the time. 

She understood it… However…

“Let’s talk and chat a lot okay? Whenever you feel lonely, just message me. I’ll message you as often as I can as well.”

Suddenly, she felt a soft, loving kiss on her head, snapping her out of her daze. And when she looked up, her face quickly went red when she saw his smile.

“I-I’m not going to get lonely that easily! B-But… If you insist…”

She quickly averted her gaze and buried her face back to his chest, avoiding his eyes, earning her a soft giggle from Yuuji and another kiss on the head. 

“Stay safe… Okay? Don’t rush in recklessly.”

“I know… I promise.”

“Good.”

Yuuji then turned towards Cecilia, who stared at him with a soft, beautiful smile. Her golden eyes shimmering with excitement, happiness, and love.

And seeing her luscious lips slightly parted, he didn’t hold back and took them with his lips in a short, chaste kiss.

“C.C.”

“Hm?”

She tilted her head cutely to the side, her smile widening and her cheeks blushing slightly red after he kissed her. 

“Let’s make a lot more fun and happy memories together, okay?”

Her eyes widened for a moment before her smile bloomed even brighter and tears flowed down her cheeks.

The unending suffering she had led… The days filled solely by pain, sandness, and loneliness… Her wish to simply die and end it all… 

Everything was erased by him. The love of her life. The one who had taught her how to love once more… 

The one who will stay by her side and lead her to an endless life filled with happiness, love, and bliss. 

And the one who made her look forward to her “tomorrow”, because she knew that he would be by her side. 

“Yes. I’ll be looking forward to it.”

Her beloved Yuuji… Now that she was by his side, she even felt slightly thankful for the life she had led. For it led her to his side. 

As the three hugged in a tight embrace, Akane watched from the side silently. A soft smile adorning her now youthful, beautiful face. 

Although this relationship was abnormal, after observing them, she could see how much they truly loved each other. 

And as long as her daughter was happy with this, and Yuuji truly loved the both of them from the bottom of his heart, she’ll gladly support her daughter and watch over them from the side. 

Meanwhile, Tatsuya and Satoru was conversing with Lelouch on the side. 

“I hope you don’t mind if I were to visit this world often. There are still a lot of things I’d like to learn and projects I’d like to work on along with Rakshata and her team.”

Lelouch nodded with a smile.

“Of course. You’d always be welcome. In fact, it’ll be a huge help for me if you keep handling the R&D department.”

“Thank you. I’ll come and help out as much as I can.”

Lelouch then turned towards Satoru, who was standing with a slight reluctance and sadness on his face.

And it was easy to guess why he seemed downhearted. 

Lelouch raised his hand and placed it on his shoulder, snapping Satoru out of his daze and meeting his eyes. 

“Satoru-san. You’re always welcomed here anytime you want. So whenever you want to breathe in some fresh air, don’t hesitate and give me a call.”

His eyes widened in shock, before a wry, tired laugh escaped his lips as he rubbed the back of his head.

“A-Ahahaha… I was that obvious huh…? Thank you, Lelouch-san. Then… I’ll be taking you up on your offer. Please excuse me for visiting when… I can’t stand the air in my world.”

“Of course.”

Lelouch nodded. He knew how much Satoru had been enjoying the clean air and beautiful nature in this world. Also marred by war, this place was still more than a hundred times better than his own world, where simply stepping outside a heavily sterilized and closed building could mean suffering an inevitable yet slow, painful death. 

And for him to be forced to return to such a world… He couldn’t help but pity the kind, middle-aged man. 

“Satoru-san… Have you been considering going to the… “new world”?”

Satoru’s eyes widened briefly, before letting out a tired sigh.

“...After experiencing this world, the thought of returning to my own world was… appalling. It’s… harder to return to a dark, smog-filled room after knowing how liberating and beautiful the outside world was, than to not know it at all. So…”

Satoru looked down and clenched his hands.

“Even if it’s dangerous… I… I’d rather live in that new world rather than my own world.”

He had decided. 

Rather than dying from overwork or breathing in a lungful of polluted smog in his dark, dirty room alone… He’d rather die fighting in that new world. 

“Alright. We’ll wish you luck. And don’t worry, Satoru-san. Remember that all members of the group chat will be there to help you.”

Satoru looked up and saw Lelouch and Tatsuya smiling reassuringly to him. And for an instant… he could see the image of his guildmates juxtaposed against them. 

Ah… This feeling… Have I finally found another one…?

A home… A home where he belonged to… He… Did he finally found another home…?

“...Thank you, everyone. For supporting me…”

“There’s no need for thanks, Satoru-san. We’re friends after all.”

Friends… That’s right… It had been quite a while since he felt it. But… Now he remembered. 

I almost forgot… what it feels like… to have friends…

And for the first time in a while… tears flowed down his cheeks as he recalled his guildmates… and then his friends in the group chat. 

A few moments later, Yuuji, Tatsuya, and Satoru stood together, while Lelouch, Cecilia, Karen, and Akane stood by the entrance. 

“Then, we’ll be going now. Akane-san, I’ll leave the manor in your care.”

“Yes. Please rest assured, Yuuji-kun.”

Then, they walked off to the courtyard and out the gate… And once they were out of sight, the three disappeared from the world in a flash of brilliant light. 

--------------------------------X--------------------------------

Opening his eyes slowly and blinking a few times, recovering from the sudden flash, Yuuji looked around and found himself in a familiar space.

It was his original room. He had returned to his home world. 

The twin slime girls immediately changed back into their original, adorable, slime forms and rested on his shoulder, nuzzling themselves to his neck. 

“Ah, we’re back. It’s been a while, huh?”

Yuuji smiled softly and began petting the two slimes on his shoulders. 

He then looked down to his phone and saw a notification from the group chat. 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

His smile widened as he read the message. Then soon, several more notifications popped up on his screen. 

They were all descriptions about his Geass, the Excalibur, and Amaterasu. 

His geass was now called the “Eyes of Anti magic”, and instead of only other Geass, it denied the activation of any magical spells or effects, as well as erasing ongoing magical effects in its effective range equal to his vision. 

And with his enhanced vision and , virtually no magic could be activated in his presence without his permission. 

Meanwhile, there were also some changes to the Excalibur and Amaterasu. Since they were rewards from the Group Chat that the members could use, it has been changed so that it could be powered using magic power as well. 

“This is amazing…”

In addition to the 6000 GCP he got, bringing his total to 10,000 GCP, as well as the 10+1x Draw Gacha Ticket, the rewards he received from just completing the missions were incredible!  

He was now, essentially, impervious to magic, along with his two adorable slime girls who also inherited this ability. And the group chat now has two extremely powerful weapons they could use to help with their mission as long as they have magic power. 

It was a massive haul. 

Hehe, I can’t wait to see what I get from the gacha!

With his [Lucky] trait, which increases his luck massively and gives him a chance to redraw his gacha pull, Yuuji couldn’t help but look forward to what kind of amazing items he could get this time. 

Perhaps there would be some that would suit Mira, Yuna, Nina, and Aika, or something that could help protect them. 

But, just as he was about to go to the gacha menu, a message notification came to the group chat. 

Witch of Immortality: “Hello. It is nice to meet you. My name is C.C. I believe this is the Multiverse Group Chat Yuuji is talking about.”

The witch of immortality… In other words, C.C, had finally sent her first message in the group chat, marking the start of a whole new adventure for her.
