Chapter 7 – Chat Group
"Umm, hello?" - Railgun
"Hello." - Empress of Annihilation
"Umm, this thing suddenly appeared in front of me, and I can't seem to get rid of it. Can someone explain what this is? I read the basic info, but I still need an explanation." - Railgun
"Hello and welcome, everyone!" - Owner
"Owner? Are you the owner of this thing? Can you explain what it does? And why was I chosen to be here?" - Railgun
"Okay, okay, first, calm down. Before I explain about this group chat, how about we all introduce ourselves? It would be great to get to know each other. Railgun-san, would you like to start?" - Owner
"Alright? My name is Misaka Mikoto, a Level 5 Esper. My hobby is—wait, do I need to share everything?" - Railgun
"Ahahaha, that's up to you. It's fine if you just tell us your name." - Owner
"Then, that's all, I guess..." - Railgun
"I suppose it's my turn. My name is Rias Gremory, a daughter of the Gremory family and the little sister of the current Lucifer. Owner, if I may ask, is what the screen says about 'Another Dimension' true? Are you all from different worlds?" - Empress of Annihilation
"It said that?!" - Railgun
"... Didn't you say you already read the basics?" - Owner
"I did... I think?" - Railgun
"As expected, worthy of the 'biri-biri' title. I'll start calling you Biri-biri from now on," - Owner
"B-Biri-biri?! Who are you calling Biri-biri, you bastard?!" - Railgun
"Uwwaa, scary." - Owner
"TELL ME YOUR LOCATION RIGHT NOW! I'LL COME AND PUNCH YOU IN THE FACE!" - Railgun
"So, Rias-san, let's wait until everyone has introduced themselves, and then I'll explain everything." - Owner
"DON'T IGNORE ME!" - Railgun
"Alright, Owner-san~" - Empress of Annihilation
"Well then, um, who wants to introduce themselves next?" - Owner
"OI," - Railgun
"Ahahaha," - Kira
"Well, hi, Kira-san." - Owner
"Hi. At first, I thought I was crazy for seeing a floating screen in front of me. But after seeing your reactions, I'm sure this is real. The supernatural really exists." - Kira
"Is this your first time seeing something supernatural, Kira-san?" - Owner
"Yes, I've never seen anything like this before." - Kira
"Not even a supernatural book?" - Owner
"Book? I don't think I've encountered one before..." - Kira
"I see... well, do you mind introducing yourself, Kira-san?" - Owner
"Sure thing. Hello everyone, my name is Yagami Light. You can call me Light. I read the description of this thing before. It's unbelievable that everyone is from different dimensions." - Kira
"Hehe, don't worry, I'll explain everything after we're done with introductions." - Owner
"That would be helpful. Thanks in advance, Owner-san." - Kira
"Un! No worries. And next is..." - Owner
"Golden Darkness." - Golden Darkness
"..." - Owner
"Okay... next is..." - Owner
"..." - Whiteroom Masterpiece
"..." - Red Eyed Killer
"..." - The Great Immortal
"..." - Owner
"You can go first," - The Great Immortal
"Who?" - Whiteroom Masterpiece
"I hate repeating myself." - The Great Immortal
"..." - Whiteroom Masterpiece
"Uh... Um... I'm Ayanokouji Kiyotaka. Uh, Um... nice to meet you all. Uh, um... I'm not particularly good at anything. Uh... I'll work hard to get along with everyone." - Whiteroom Masterpiece
"PFT-" - Railgun
"Biri-biri, you're noisy." - Owner
"Misaka-san, it's not proper to laugh at someone's introduction," - Kira
"I agree." - Empress of Annihilation
"Okay, okay, I'm sorry." - Railgun
"Thank you for the introduction, Ayanokouji-san. I hope you can forgive our Biri-biri's antics." - Owner
"Stop calling me Biri-biri, you bastard!" - Railgun
"It's okay, I don't mind." - Whiteroom Masterpiece
"Thank you. Anyway, the next is..." - Owner
"Akame." - Red Eyed Killer
"Rena." - The Great Immortal
"..." - Owner
"Well, I guess we're done with introductions. It's time I explain about this group chat." - Owner
"As the description said before you joined, the screen that appeared in front of you is called the system. It connects us from different dimensions into a single space called 'Group Chat' where we can chat freely without worry." - Owner
"As for why you were chosen, it's mostly random. I have no control over the selection of group members. Yes, I'm not the creator of this system." - Owner
"I see..." - Kira
"Is that so? I still can't believe it." - Railgun
"And the reason this group chat exists is for us to help each other in times of need." - Owner
"Help each other? Do you mean we can travel across dimensions to visit one another?" - Kira
"As expected, Light-san is smart." - Owner
[System: The Great Immortal is offline...]
"..." - Owner
"Hehe, thanks. Also, 'as expected'? Do you know me, Owner-san?" - Light
"Yes. In fact, I know everyone in this group chat except for one person." - Owner
"You know us?" - Empress of Annihilation
[System: The Red Eyed Killer is offline...]
"..." - Owner
"Ehem* Yes. For example, that Biri-biri over there," - Owner
"Like I said, stop calling me Biri-biri!" - Railgun
"Although she only introduced her name and being a Level 5 Esper, I know more about her. A student from Tokiwadai Middle School, daughter of Misaka Tabigake and Misaka Misuzu. She entered Academy City in elementary school and distinguished herself as a child prodigy. Entered as a Level 1 Esper, she climbed the ranks purely through effort." - Owner
"Eh..." - Railgun
"In her first year of Tokiwadai Middle School, she lost a 10,000 yen bill to a certain vending machine." - Owner
"Wait, WAIT!" - Railgun
"Also, she has a secret that no one else knows. Should I continue?" - Owner
"WAIT, I SAID WAIT!" - Railgun
"Hmh, is something wrong, Biri-biri-san~?" - Owner
"S-STALKER!" - Railgun
"Hey, don't misunderstand. I'm just proving that I know everyone here. Of course, I won't expose everything since some of you have pasts that shouldn't be revealed easily. Do you believe me now?" - Owner
"Then, Owner-san, can you tell us about me?" - Empress of Annihilation
"Are you sure?" - Owner
"Yes, I don't mind." - Empress of Annihilation
"Well then, Gremory clan's heiress, Rias Gremory. The sole daughter and youngest child of Zeoticus and Venelana Gremory. A student from-" - Owner
"That's enough, Owner-san. I believe you now." - Empress of Annihilation
"Alright then. Also, not just about yourselves. I also know about your futures." - Owner
"Wait, is that true? How do you know?" - Railgun
"Yes. I'm curious too." - Empress of Annihilation
"..." - Owner
"Hey, answer us!" - Railgun
"Owner-san?" - Empress of Annihilation
"Sorry, I was just thinking for a moment. Let's just say, I know about you from the same source as I got this system." - Owner
"Also, something came up. If you want to ask anything about yourselves or need my help, message me privately. I'll do my best to help. That's all for now, feel free to chat among yourselves. Bye!" - Owner
"Hey, wait!" - Railgun
