【King Solomon has joined the chat group.】
【Gin has joined the chat group.】
The sudden announcement made everyone in the group, who were happily chatting, stunned.
The two new members who were suddenly added to the chat were even faster to react.
Gin: “!”
King Solomon: “Huh? What is this…? Could it be that I’ve been staying up too late and am hallucinating?”
Stinky Sprout: “Wait, you’ll understand once you’ve read this.”
Fang Ming Jing opened the group announcement.
He had only recently discovered that the group announcement had a strong push function. After selecting the two new members as his target, the entire content of the group announcement was instantly transmitted into their minds.
Ainz Ooal Gown: “Gin, I remember there being a type of alcohol called that.”
Seventeen-Year-Old Girl: “King Solomon, there seems to have been someone by that name in human history.”
Loves Coffee Jelly: “Yes, he was a famous king of ancient Israel. I learned about him in my school textbooks.”
King Solomon: “…Amazing.”
King Solomon: “No, I mean, is this a dream? I was really startled when I first came in. The name Solomon is already a thing of the past to me.”
Stinky Sprout: “@King Solomon, Romani Archaman?”
Fang Ming Jing was still uncertain about the name King Solomon, but when he saw the other party saying it was a thing of the past, he immediately thought of Roman the doctor.
King Solomon: “The group owner knows me? Then, please tell me, what price do I need to pay to learn about the future of my world?”
As expected…
Stinky Sprout: “You don’t have to.”
Ding.
【Group owner Stinky Sprout has uploaded the file Fate/Grand Order.】
Everyone began to read the file.
Romani Archaman…
Roman the doctor was a somewhat heartbreaking character.
He, who once was the omniscient King Solomon, wished to experience a normal human life. He renounced everything to the Holy Grail and, unknowingly, left behind the seeds of the world’s destruction.
And at the moment when he renounced everything, his all-seeing eye that could see the future witnessed the impending destruction of humanity.
At that time, he was frantic with worry, trying to figure out what had happened and attempting to save it. However, the Holy Grail had already fulfilled his wish. In the next moment, he became an ordinary person with no particular talents.
Roman the doctor then embarked on a path of shouldering the future alone.
Though he had become a normal human as he wished, the terrifying future had completely deprived him of his freedom. To save humanity, he had to try his hardest to learn and grow with his ordinary human talents.
Until the very end…
He aided the Master who saved the world in reaching the final stage. Upon discovering that the root of this crisis stemmed from the magic formula of his renounced King Solomon, he chose to erase himself from the root.
In the end, it was because of the King Solomon’s existence disappearing that the human order burning ceremony, Goetia, lost its power and immortality, gradually collapsing, paving the way for the Master’s victory…
King Solomon: “…So, it was all my fault. Uh, wait, why is it that my internet idol, Merry, who I use to de-stress, is actually Merlin that guy playing me behind the scenes!?”
Loves Coffee Jelly: “Is that your main concern?”
Aizen Sousuke: “A rather touching story.”
Hestia: “That’s why I say we gods like humans, so delicate and resilient. Even when they feel gloomy, they still stand tall and shine. I always thought they were brighter than the stars.”
God of the Tongue: “Hestia, you’re actually acting like a goddess for once.”
Seventeen-Year-Old Girl: “Hmm, I have to say, sometimes, the persistence of humans is terrifying.”
World’s Strongest Swordsman: “But, now that he’s joined here, perhaps the newcomer won’t have to take that step…”
Stinky Sprout: “Of course. If everyone joins here and still can’t change their fates, then the chat group’s existence is pointless.”
King Solomon: “I can live? …Haha, that’s really a happy thing. Well, anyway, thank you all for being so friendly.”
Ainz Ooal Gown: “Wait, didn’t the group owner forget about the other newcomer?”
Usually, if there were multiple newcomers, Fang Ming Jing would upload files simultaneously. But the other one still hadn’t made a move until now.
Gin: “…Group owner?”
In a Porsche 356A parked on the side of the street, a silver-haired man wearing a black trench coat and a top hat appeared to be cold and aloof on the surface, but the hand that was tucked deep inside his coat was involuntarily clenched.
Chat group—
His eyes held a mixture of shock and expectation, and he was in a tense state.
Stinky Sprout: “I kind of don’t want to post the other newcomer’s world’s plot.”
Gin: “…?”
God of the Tongue: “Is it similar to the situation with that Momo-no-suke from last time?”
Stinky Sprout: “No, it’s not.”
The nickname Gin was easy to guess. Besides the one from Detective Conan, there shouldn’t be any others.
But it was precisely because of this that he was a little conflicted.
If Gin knew the plot, he would probably set off to give Conan a bullet the next second, right?
Fang Ming Jing didn’t really have any good or bad feelings toward Conan, but it would be a pity if people like Ai Haibara, Ran Mouri, and Dr. Agasa were implicated.
Stinky Sprout: “Forget it…” Who else could it be, but Gin?
【Group owner Stinky Sprout has uploaded the file Detective Conan.】
Gin was the first to read it.
As a flood of information instantly poured into his brain, Gin’s face showed a subtle change.
Seventeen-Year-Old Girl: “So, the newcomer is a villain. But, surrounded by undercover agents? That’s kind of pitiful…”
Ainz Ooal Gown: “And the plot seems a bit haphazard.”
Loves Coffee Jelly: “…?”
Though Kusuo Saiki wanted to complain, in truth, he, with his gentle heart, disliked Gin, a villain who had committed countless crimes.
Gin: “…Group owner, I won’t go and kill that detective named Conan.”
Gin was a smart man.
Fang Ming Jing’s hesitation earlier had made it clear to him that this group owner was somewhat unwilling to let him know the plot, and the reason was obviously this.
That Conan was indeed a nuisance to the organization, but if he were to be dealt with, it might bring about displeasure from the group owner, which would be counterproductive.
And Fang Ming Jing also easily understood his thoughts.
Stinky Sprout: “I don’t really care about Conan, but the people around him are pretty good, including Ai Haibara.”
Gin: “I understand.”
