The Strongest Eriri in History

"Arifureta (Group Leader): Speaking of being a saint, I have to mention a great show that Eriri and I saw today."

"Arifureta (Group Leader): Ah, Kanae, I really wasn't talking about you, so don't overthink it. Smile.jpg"

"Flower Hashira: Yue-chan, I feel like you're targeting me. I'm not who I used to be! Angry.jpg"

"Kashiwagi Eri: Wow, is this short-haired girl Shinobu Kocho?"

"Flower Hashira: Yes, isn't Shinobu adorable? Proud.jpg"

"Arche Eeb Rile Furt: Is this Kanae's sister? Very cute. My sisters are also adorable."

"Kashiwagi Eri: Cute, indeed. But I wonder how she'd feel knowing you use her as an emoji."

Eriri chuckled at the image of Shinobu Kocho. The Shinobu Kocho from this time is quite different from the Insect Hashira five years later.

"What's up?" Arifureta asked, noticing the smile on Eriri's face.

"Yue-chan, what do you think Shinobu Kocho would be like five years later if Kanae were still alive?"

"Hmm... why think so much about it? We'll know in five years."

"True."

The fact that Kanae is still alive five years later is a given for Eriri and Arifureta.

Even if Kanae encounters danger when she meets Doma in the future, Eriri would not hesitate to cross worlds to save her. After all, they're part of the same chat group, and they've gotten familiar over these past few days, so she wouldn't just stand by and do nothing.

"Iron-Blooded Hot-Blooded Cold-Blooded Vampire: Arifureta, what was the show you mentioned?"

"Arifureta (Group Leader): Oh, I'll upload that memory to the chat group so you can all watch it."

[Ding, Arifureta (Group Leader) uploaded memory image 'First Fun.']

[Ding, Arifureta (Group Leader) created memory image collection 'The Fun Person's Journey.']

The chat group fell silent for a while as everyone watched the memory Arifureta had uploaded. During this short period, Eriri and Arifureta flew several dozen kilometers further, but the scenery remained an endless expanse of red sand, making it feel like they were treading in place.

"Iron-Blooded Hot-Blooded Cold-Blooded Vampire: I've finished watching it. I must say, this guy named Tennohara Hikaru is disgusting."

"Asuna: He's way too self-righteous. I wouldn't want to be friends with someone like that."

"Flower Hashira: I'm quite different from who I used to be, right...?"

"Arifureta (Group Leader): That's what you call a fake saint. It's completely different from being a true saint. Kanae and Asuna's actions are saintly."

"Flower Hashira: Uh... Yue-chan, I really have changed..."

"Kashiwagi Eri: Being called a saint is a compliment. Although I don't agree with or understand saintly behavior, saints do deserve respect and admiration."

"Kashiwagi Eri: As for fake saints, they're just harmful."

"Arifureta (Group Leader): Yes, saints are indeed great, but many of them meet tragic ends."

"Asuna: Ahem, Group Leader, do you mean that if I continue, I'll also meet a tragic end?"

"Arifureta (Group Leader): Hehe, whether it's tragic depends on how strong you are."

"Asuna: ..."

"Kashiwagi Eri: It'd be nice if the chat group had a live broadcast feature. That way, whenever someone has fun to share, we could all watch together. Unhappy baby.jpg"

[Ding, member's suggestion successfully received. The chat group will undergo a non-stop update, and the live broadcast feature will be available after the update.]

[Ding, chat group update complete.]

[New Chat Group Feature: Group Live Broadcast System.]

[Live Broadcast System: Members can start a live broadcast in the chat interface, allowing others to see real-time images in their minds and reward the broadcaster with points.]

"Kashiwagi Eri: Great, just as I expected. It was worth mentioning. Happy.jpg"

[Ding, ...]

"Arifureta (Group Leader): Oh, this again... At times like this, I feel like a fake group leader. Sad.jpg"

"Flower Hashira: Why is the chat group so nice to Eriri?"

"Kashiwagi Eri: Yes, indeed. Why? I'd love to know too. Smug.jpg"

"Flower Hashira: ...Eriri like this isn't cute at all... Sad.jpg"

"Arifureta (Group Leader): I was the first to join the group. If it's nice to anyone, it should be me..."

"Kashiwagi Eri: Maybe it's because my beauty is unmatched across worlds, with a charm that can topple kingdoms. This irresistible allure.jpg"

"Arifureta (Group Leader): Oh, this..."

"Flower Hashira: Oh, this..."

"Asuna: Oh, this..."

"Iron-Blooded Hot-Blooded Cold-Blooded Vampire: +1"

"Arche Eeb Rile Furt: +1"

"Ashen Witch: +1"

"Archangel Gabriel: +1"

"Sakura Matou: +1"

"Kashiwagi Eri: @Sakura Matou, caught a mysterious creature."

Eriri's eyes lit up as she saw Sakura Matou chatting in the group. Finally, an opportunity to communicate with her arose, allowing her to proceed with her previous plans. Another fun event was about to unfold.

"Arifureta (Group Leader): Oh, is Sakura finally speaking?"

"Flower Hashira: A child I haven't met."

"Asuna: Wow, four years old. She must be the youngest in our group."

"Sakura Matou: Hello, big sisters and big brothers. Who are you, and why are you in my head?"

"Kashiwagi Eri: There are no brothers here, only sisters."

"Sakura Matou: Oh... I'm sorry. Hello, sisters. Who are you, and why are you in my head?"

"Asuna: Wow, she's so cute."

"Flower Hashira: So well-behaved. Shinobu was quite mischievous at four."

"Arifureta (Group Leader): Sakura is naturally adorable."

"Sakura Matou: Thank you for the compliment. Do the sisters know me?"

"Arifureta (Group Leader): Eriri and I, @Kashiwagi Eri, know about you, Sakura. We even know your future."

"Sakura Matou: Really? That's amazing, sisters."

"Kashiwagi Eri: Sakura, let me be direct. Your future doesn't look good. I won't go into details now, but let me ask you: Do you want to change your future?"
