DanMachi, My Members Are From Slice-of-Life Anime

Early in the morning at the manor, Emilia was practicing the self-introduction techniques she had learned from Shaga.

It is said that this way of introducing oneself makes an entire race 'popular'. If this were applied to a certain 'Love Clan' that was hated by the entire village because of red-eye disease, it might have prevented them from being wiped out.

Emilia, who was hated by everyone since childhood because of her half-demon identity, cherished it all the more.

"I need to work even harder to become like that Grand Magister that Xiao Jia mentioned. Hmm... the rewards later aren't important."

"Emilia? What are you doing?"

Subaru Natsuki appeared in the courtyard. He still stared in disbelief at the fact that his goddess had suddenly become mentally challenged.

"Ah, you're awake. You can tell just by looking, right? It's the self-introduction practice." Emilia recalled the key points and did it again.

"Ah this..."

"What's wrong? Is something wrong?" Emilia tilted her head.

"It's not just something that's wrong, it's everything about it is wrong! This is just too childish!"

"Chuunibyou?" Emilia still didn't understand.

"It's just..." Subaru Natsuki was speechless. He didn't know how to explain the word, and finally concluded:

"It's just saying some poses and lines that you think are cool... but it looks really stupid?"

Emilia's face hardened: "What, do you think it's stupid of me to be an elf, or do you think I'm a fool for wanting to become king?"

"No..." Even if Natsuki Subaru was stupid, he knew that he had probably stepped on a landmine.

He suddenly realized that the reason why being a teenager seemed silly was because the person talking about it was spouting nonsense, but now...

This thing is real... there's not a single lie in it!

"Could it be... Emilia, are you planning to marry the king? To become the king's woman... Does that mean Emilia is already engaged?"

Emilia huffed, "No way! My current title is Lugnica's Queen Candidate."

"Eh... Emilia is the future queen or something..."

Natsuki Subaru was startled and immediately explained:

"Ah, sorry, it's probably a cultural difference. People from my hometown often fantasize about things they can't actually do and show off."

"For example, I am actually a great sage who can easily reverse time."

As soon as he finished speaking, the black space paused for a second before disappearing.

"Reverse time?" Emilia tilted her head and asked curiously.

But Subaru Natsuki had no interest in paying attention to any of that...

The mastermind didn't show up? Is it because I don't even believe what I said myself? Or was it too much of a joke, so even that person couldn't determine whether it counted as actively revealing the return of the dead?

Natsuki Subaru said nervously, "Actually, every time I die..."

Before he could finish speaking, the feeling of time standing still returned, and a black hand seemed to be gripping his heart.

"Haaah—haaah—" Natsuki Subaru gasped for breath. Cold sweat soaked his entire body.

"Are you alright?" Emilia asked, bending down to check on her with concern.

On the other side of the courtyard, a pink-haired maid stared intently at Subaru Natsuki with murderous eyes.

"The flavor has become stronger..."

The sharp killing intent instantly stung Subaru Natsuki. A flash of red light appeared before his eyes, signaling that he was entering battle mode.

His experience of dying fifteen times told him that there was indeed a murderous aura locking onto him just now, and it wasn't a problem with Shaga's system.

But... this is clearly Emilia's manor, isn't it?

He looked around nervously, and finally followed his gaze to find Ram standing in the corner.

She wanted to kill me? Why? Could what Shaga said be true?

Natsuki Subaru stared at the pink-haired maid over there, and Ram also walked over generously:

"When Lord Roswaal returns, please proceed to the dining room for a meal."

……

restaurant.

"Why are you here, you idiot?"

"Huh? Calling someone you've just met an idiot is way too much."

“An idiot is an idiot, and Betty doesn’t want to say another word to an idiot.”

"Perfect, I don't want to say another word to that rude drill-wielding loli!"

When Subaru Natsuki followed Lum to the restaurant, he was met with a sulking red-haired guy and...

"The Golden Drill Girl?"

Betty's murderous gaze swept over them: "And who are you, you rude jerk? Can I teach him a lesson?"

"Oh, then I'd better decline..." Natsuki Subaru refused, pushing his hand away.

“That’s not up to you.” Betty held out her hand.

“Oto. I’ll be in trouble if you touch him now.” Shaka stood in front of Natsuki Subaru, turned his head and whispered, “Didn’t I just tell you not to do anything unnecessary, Subaru-kun?”

"Hey, did that just now trigger instant death?" Natsuki Subaru took a step back in fright.

At this moment, Betty's attention was drawn to Parker on Emilia's shoulder, and she and her brother began to kiss and cuddle.

At the same time, the sound of high heels came from behind.

“Beatrice is here too, that’s rare,” a clown said in an eerie tone.

"Do you want to have a meal with us again after all this time?"

Natsuki Subaru exclaimed in surprise, "As expected of nobles, do they hire clowns to perform before meals?"

Shaka chuckled:

"I think you don't need to say anything. Just now, if it were someone else, they would probably be thinking, 'You're already courting death.'"

"Although he really is a clown."

Subaru Natsuki whispered, "Hey, you clearly said it was a clown from the start, didn't you?"

Shaka shrugged: "Subaru-kun, people are different, don't you understand yet?"

Emilia quickly explained, "Um... this is Roswaal, the owner of this mansion."

Natsuki Subaru broke out in a cold sweat.

"Don't worry about it. I'm not that petty."

Shaka laughed heartily, patted Roswaal on the back, and said loudly:

"Haha, in that case, how about putting on a silly show for us before dinner? Mr. Roswaal, sir?"

"Shaga?"

Emilia was somewhat surprised; this kind of rudeness was not like Shaga's usual style.

Ram, meanwhile, had his hands hidden behind his back, ready to unleash a wind blade to decapitate someone at the slightest provocation.

But Shaka was already prepared to get straight to the point with Roswaal, so he simply didn't hold back and laid his cards on the table.

"Roswaal, do you have anything to say about Emilia's near-assassination attempt in the capital?"

"!!!" Everyone present was stunned.

"Are you talking about the badge being stolen? I've already heard about it. Of course, I'm very grateful to the gentleman." Roswaal looked at Shaka with a smile.

"No, I'm talking about your hiring of assassins to try and kill the king's candidates." Shaga smiled, showing no sign that he was picking a fight.

But every word struck a chord in everyone's hearts.

Ram roared in fury: "What makes you say that? If you don't provide evidence, I have every reason to expel you for insulting Lord Roswaal!"

Chapter 569 Shaja's Book of Wisdom

Shaga narrowed his eyes and shrugged, saying, "Terrible, terrifying. This isn't my opinion, it's what the Miss Bowel Hunter I captured confessed herself."

"Indeed, I also suspect that she might be deliberately trying to stir up trouble within our organization. Is that why she asked Mr. Roswaal to explain?"

Shaga opened her eyes slightly: "After all, if Master were to live in the home of someone who could kill her at any moment, that would be a terrible situation."

Xia Jia smiled enigmatically: "What? Do you want to confront the prisoner before eating? After all, I'm afraid of being poisoned."

His words made Subaru Natsuki take a step back.

Holy crap, is this what I might be facing? I could die even while eating a meal?

Emilia looked at Roswaal, then at Shaka, not understanding why things had suddenly turned out this way.

Parker also crouched in Beatrice's arms, without saying a word.

Roswaal's smile remained unchanged: "This Mr. Xia, you should know that Lugnica currently has no queen, and a mysterious foreigner has suddenly appeared at the residence of the potential queen, and is provoking her supporters..."

Shaka crossed her arms and nodded: "Yes, yes. But, I'm not a foreigner. To be precise, I'm just an assistant that Emilia summoned using foreigners' knowledge."
