Chapter 6 — Can an Anime Crossover World Really Be This Creative?
Yukiko slammed one hand on the table. "Eri, why did you call me out today? What's going on?"
Kisaki Eri crossed her legs elegantly, radiating the overwhelming aura of someone who believed she had triumphed completely. With a serene smile, she replied,
"Actually, I did have something to discuss… but now it doesn't matter anymore."
"You know, we've competed for years, yet neither of us has ever truly 'won.'"
"We've always tried to outdo each other. But today… the results are clear at last."
"So I'm in an excellent mood. I thought I'd treat you to lunch."
Yukiko slapped the table again.
"Hey! What's with you, woman? Don't just decide there's a 'winner' out of nowhere!"
"This makes no sense. Do you seriously think you've beaten me?"
Eri clapped her hands lightly. "Isn't it obvious?"
"Obvious how?! Eri, you're acting strange today. Are you having some kind of mental episode?"
Eri chuckled softly. "Nothing of that sort."
"This is one of those things… where if you understand, you understand. If you don't, then there's no need to explain."
When the meeting finally ended, Kudō Yukiko grew more and more frustrated—but beneath her irritation was deep confusion.
Because throughout the entire encounter, Kisaki Eri had behaved unmistakably like a victor.
Not pretending.
Not joking.
But genuinely convinced that she had defeated Yukiko completely—and with overwhelming superiority at that.
But Yukiko had no idea why.
She didn't even know the slightest basis for Eri's confidence.
"Ugh! So annoying!"
She clenched her fists and let out a frustrated growl.
Then she carefully replayed their entire conversation, step by step.
The strangeness had begun when Eri pointed at the table and asked if she saw a diary there.
Yukiko had answered that she saw nothing.
The exact moment she said that—
Eri gave her that victorious smile.
A smile dripping with smug superiority.
At first, Yukiko thought Eri was hallucinating.
But as the meeting continued, she realized Eri was perfectly normal—
the same Kisaki Eri she had always known.
And yet…
That unjustified, baseless air of victory made Yukiko deeply uncomfortable, puzzled, and increasingly irritated.
She had planned to travel abroad, but now she postponed everything.
She absolutely had to find out—
Why in the world did Kisaki Eri think she was superior to her?

Meanwhile, Hayashi Rin was trying to process the information he had gathered about this world.
Based on what he knew so far, this fused anime world was a grand amalgamation of countless Japanese anime universes.
The world consisted of five major nations:
The Land of K,
The Land of Light,
The Land of Chrysanthemum,
The Land of Shadows,
And the Land of Sakura—
plus several minor states.
For example, the country he currently lived in—the Land of K—was a fusion of worlds from Detective Conan, Kaitō Kid (Magic Kaito), Lupin the Third, Cat's Eye, Saki: Achiga-hen, and even Kumogakure from Naruto.
Meanwhile, the Land of Light included worlds like A Certain Scientific Railgun, A Certain Magical Index, Date A Live, Kuroko's Basketball, Saekano, and Iwagakure from Naruto.
After reading all that, Hayashi Rin could only sigh.
"So it can be mixed together like this, huh…?"
"This system really knows how to have fun!"
But precisely because of that, things became far more interesting.
If he already knew all the plotlines from the start, the excitement would drop significantly.
Also, with so many anime worlds merged, there were far more beautiful heroines and female protagonists around.
Meaning—
More targets for him to 'conquer.'
As a transmigrator, what was the point of traveling across worlds?
Was it to dominate worlds and become the supreme ruler?
Wrong.
That wasn't how Hayashi Rin thought.
Conquering worlds and standing at the peak was nothing more than a process—a stepping stone.
A phase to make the journey less boring.
It wasn't a mandatory goal.
To him, the true purpose of world-hopping was simple:
To enjoy life—
and pursue immortality.
Everything else was just a means to those ends.
And to enjoy life, one needed strong material foundations, inner happiness, and absolute freedom.
Great power was merely the tool to guarantee those things.
Once food and drink were assured, the desire to appreciate beauty—especially beautiful women—was a higher form of spiritual satisfaction.
Therefore, every anime girl he had ever admired…
Every 2D heroine he once loved…
He wanted all of them.

A new day began.
The following morning, Mōri Ran, Suzuki Sonoko, and Toyama Kazuha sat together in a circle, waiting for the diary to update.
"Why hasn't it updated yet?" Ran said anxiously. "This guy is infuriating! He always talks halfway!"
"Why can't he just tell me directly where Shinichi is?!"
Suzuki Sonoko tried to calm her.
"Relax, Ran. We're already trying to track him down. I'm sure we'll find something soon."
At that moment, they saw new words slowly appearing on the open pages of the diary.
The diary updated—
And the manner and speed at which it updated shocked them completely.

[Good morning, beautiful ladies. Did you sleep well last night?]
[Did any of you stay awake thinking about me?]
[I'm sure at least one or two did, right?]
[Whether you slept well or not, I certainly slept wonderfully.]
[You must be curious about the reward I received from yesterday's entry, aren't you?]
[I can tell you this—the reward is incredible, though currently not something I need.]
[The reward I obtained is the Revival Token.]
[I can create one Revival Token every week. Its effect is granting ten additional years of life to the target.]
[The additional effect is resurrection.]
[Because if someone is dead, the system must revive them first before granting ten more years of life.]
[That's why it's called the Revival Token.]
[Moreover, resurrection has no time limit—even someone who died a thousand or ten thousand years ago can be called back from the endless river of time.]
[Of course, knowing a person's name isn't enough. Many people share the same name throughout history.]
[For accurate resurrection, one should ideally have a piece of the target's body—even a strand of hair or a fragment of bone is enough.]
[If even that doesn't exist, then a drop of blood from their descendants can be used, even if separated by dozens or hundreds of generations.]
[Additionally, the extra lifespan includes the effect of eternal youth and beauty.]
[If someone aged twenty uses a Revival Token to gain ten additional years, then those ten years are added to their twenty-year-old state—their appearance will remain forever at age twenty throughout those ten years.]
