Chapter 1-Crossing

It may be a moment, or it may be eternal.

while semi-conscious, Zhou Fangwu came to an empty room.

Dark and deep, and a bit cold.

"Here... Where is this?"

"Mr. Zhou Fangwu, welcome to the world after death."

A voice came from behind.

Although he was still nervous in the face of some sudden changes, under the gentle and tolerant voice, the nervous mood gradually calmed down.

Zhou Fangwu turned and looked.

She has long aqua-blue hair, aqua-blue pupils, an aqua-blue dress, and a lavender feather coat covering her whole body.

"You are... the goddess of water, Aqua?!"

This image is exactly the same as the image of Akua, the goddess of water, in the anime called "KonoSuba!"

?

No, no, it's the true goddess of water!

Zhou Fangwu suspected that he was found by his housemate and teased him deliberately.

But he immediately denied it.

This girl is a true goddess, the goddess of water——Aqua!

She is ethereal and unpredictable, her perfect makeup has no flaws, and she is surrounded by the brilliance of a god. If she is not the goddess of water, then who is it?

At least, Zhou Fangwu, who considers himself a veteran two-dimensional fan, will not admit his mistakes.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhh? Has my name been passed to you?"

Aqua's perfect image of a goddess collapsed in an instant, and she raised her nose triumphantly as if to show how great she was.

"Ah, sorry, sorry."

In the next second, Aqua, who sensed her gaffe, immediately returned to the image of a goddess.

She coughed softly, "Well, I will explain to you again: Mr. Zhou Fangwu, welcome to the world after death. I am sorry to tell you that you are dead."

. . . . . .

Zhou Fangwu let out a sigh of relief, wondering if he should be happy or disappointed.

Crossed, but also died.

"Sorry, can I ask a question?" Zhou Fangwu raised his right hand and asked Akua.

"Excuse me, How did I die?"

"Sudden death!"

Aqua said to him solemnly: "The accumulated stay up late all the year-round makes your body very weak, and finally died suddenly at three o'clock in the morning yesterday!"

(T/N: was also translating this at night!!!)

"This is impossible!"

"Eh?"

"I said, it's impossible!"

Zhou Fangwu denied Aqua, "It is absolutely impossible for me to die suddenly!"

"But..."

Akua wanted to say something, but Zhou Fangwu interrupted,

"impossible! My name is Zhou Fangwu and I am 20 years old. I live in a small courtyard house on Third Ring Street in shangai City. I am unmarried. I work in a studio three kilometers away from my home.

I never work overtime, and I just stay at home and watch anime after getting off work at 5 o'clock every day. I never smoke, and I stop drinking alcohol. Go to bed on time at 11 o'clock in the evening, no matter what, you have to sleep for 8 hours!

Of course, there are not a lot of sports, and I often go to the gym to exercise during the holidays, and my physical fitness is far beyond ordinary people. The doctor said I was normal."

The huge impact after chanting left Aqua in a dazed state, somewhat speechless.

"You are not an Japanese?"

"no."

"Liar!"

"It's not a lie."

"Liar!"

"It's not a lie."

She began to make trouble unreasonably, "I am not an islander, why is your Japanese language so good?"

"As an otaku who likes anime, how can't I speak japanese language so proficiently."

"But your surname is Zhou Fang!"

"My last name is'Zhou', Not' Zhou Fang', I'm a Chinese "

"...!!!" Messed up! She, the goddess of water, Aqua pulled the wrong person!

"you are not Japanese, but can be attracted by the japan goddess?!"

Akua roared loudly, "By the way, where did the original'Zhou Fangwu' go!"

After a while, she finally accepted the fact that she had pulled the wrong person.

"Goddess Aqua, can you return me back?" Zhou Fangwu sought a way to return.

To be honest, Zhou Fangwu wanted to go back more than crossing.

He still has his parents waiting for him to support him. He hasn't seen his sister in a white wedding dress yet!

"no."

"what?"

"I said, no!"

Aqua slumped on the seat and looked at the ceiling with blank eyes, "People who come here can't return to the original world. This is the rule of the heavens, and I can't change it."

"What should I do then?!" Zhou Fangwu's brain was shaking.

His parents, his sister, and the new show this season have not been watched yet!

"Right! Boy, do you like games?"

Aqua suddenly came back to her mind, and said to Zhou Fangwu like bewitching someone "Since I'm an otaku, then there is no reason to not like games!"

"what?"

"Compensation, compensation!"

Aqua took out a stack of paper like flyers from her arms and handed it to Zhou Fangwu.

"Next, I will send you to another world to live a new life. It will not wash away your memory. At the same time, I will give you a cheating skill! Let you live in another world in a relaxed and comfortable life!"

Aqua's little abacus crackled.

In this way, the mistake of the lead was resolved, and Zhou Fangwu could be made up for, letting the flow take its course and suppressing the matter.

It really kills two birds with one stone!

What, you said Zhou Fangwu who was original?

Who cares about him!

If heaven finds her dereliction of duty, she will be punished at the slightest level, and will lose her job in the severe case!

If her job is lost, then she can no longer eat and drink here happily!

"How about it?"

The old god Akua was watching Zhou Fangwu with a posture of a big boss.

If you don't know the original work, Zhou Fangwu might compromise. But knowing that he would give him a cheating-level ability, how could he be willing to only have one?

As an adult, he will want more!

"That's not right, Goddess Aqua."

"what?"

"This cheating-level ability is built-in!"

Zhou Fangwu unceremoniously broke through her lie, "Take in the dead, and then send them to another world while giving them a special ability. This is your job!"

"That's right!"

Aqua did not hide it and said bluntly: "Of course, if you don't want this, there is another option: go to heaven, a world with nobody, no entertainment, no food and drink, super boring world!"

"Huh, don't lie to me! Goddess Aqua, your main purpose is to lead those people to another world, right? This may be related to your performance or the evaluation among the gods! I guess if the number of people is small or wrong, then you will definitely be punished! Therefore, there is only one truth! You will not easily abandon anyone from another world, especially someone from another world who you made a mistake! Goddess Aqua, it's useless to pretend to be stupid! you lied to me! "

Zhou Fangwu held down the glasses of nothingness and assumed Conan's classic posture.

"What..."

Aqua, who was still full of an expression of "I'll eat you", looked at Zhou Fangwu with tears after being dismantled the next second.

"That's right, that's right! So what, what do you want!" Aqua started rolling, tears streaming from her azure blue pupils.

Really, when we first met, I thought she had the temperament of a goddess, which really blinded me.

I thought it was exaggerated painting skills in anime, but in fact, it is even more exaggerated than in anime!

"Okay, okay, goddess Aqua, I didn't want to bully you."

Zhou Fangwu pinched his eyebrows, sighed, and said, "Well, three abilities, as long as you give me three abilities, I will..."

"No, I can't do it."

"Um?"

Akua whimpered and said: "The Celestial Contract is for one person, and one can only choose one ability. This is the rule of the Celestial Realm, and I can't change it."

Gee, damn heavenly rules.

No, there is a way!

"Then change the conditions, two abilities, how about?"

"Huh? I said it, I can't change the rules of the heavens!"

Aqua angrily said to him: "No matter who it is, there can only be one contract..."

"Yes, that's it!" Zhou Fangwu said to her with a smile: "[One person, one contract] is a rule of the heavens, but I am different.'Zhou Fang' Wu and'Zhou Fangwu' are not the same person at all."

"What, you mean..." Aqua's brains without much chaos finally understood that Zhou Fangwu's contract that Zhou Fangwu wanted to replace had also invaded!

"This...."

Akua was lost in thought.

"How about it, do you agree?" Zhou Fangwu did not urge her, giving her enough time to think.

Unfortunately, just as she was thinking, the teleportation array in this empty room lit up again, and a vague figure was looming in the teleportation array.

"Oh, time is running out, goddess Akua, you will be exposed if you don't make a decision!"

Zhou Fangwu put some pressure on her appropriately, forcing her to make a decision as soon as possible, "You have to give me time to choose."

Aqua gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, "Okay! I have agreed to your request. On the contrary, you are not allowed to talk about this!"

"Of course, I won't say it!"

"Then, please choose your abilities as soon as possible!"

Aqua put on a goddess's posture, indicating that Zhou Fangwu can start.

"I want the ability to travel through the world!"

Zhou Fangwu speaks surprisingly.

"Do you still want to go back to the original world? Don't be delusional, you can't go back without coordinates!"

"Then you can't give up, as long as you keep looking, I will go back one day!"

"Okay! The contract is established, the next one!" Akua urged him to make a decision as soon as possible.

"Second, I want to analyze and imitate skills!"

"Can!"

White light flooded into Zhou Fangwu's body, and at the same time the blue magic circle unfolded under his feet, Akua said solemnly:

"Brave! May you stand out among the many reserve braves and become the one who defeats the devil...

Okay, let's go! "

PS: In the original work, there is a white space, and in the anime, it is a black space, so I chose to use the same black background as the anime.
