"Lady Fujino, what should we do next?" Ram turned back and asked, "Shall we continue monitoring?"
"There's no need for that. Anyway, the magic's effect has already begun. We only need to monitor with magic. Now, the most important thing is this... this fellow."
Fujino said as she held up that small white orb of light, a few hints of disdain showing at the corners of her mouth.
The world will, a foolish fellow who thought it was hiding very well and hadn't been discovered by her, had now shown up again so recklessly and finally fell into her hands.
Reinhard is the one chosen by the world will and its backup plan. Over the years, since the world will's plan to use Teresa to eliminate Fujino failed, it found the existence with the strongest talent in this world—the current Reinhard. It has been hiding within Reinhard's body, using its limited power to shield its presence and bestowing the Divine Protection of the Sword Saint, reclaimed from Teresa, upon him. It hoped that Reinhard could eliminate her in the future. The world will thought its actions were seamless and perfect, not knowing that everything was seen by Fujino, and now it has been directly caught by her.
Although Fujino originally intended to destroy this world will, she now has different ideas for this world.
The level of the Re:Zero World is not high; even as number 250 among the reincarnation worlds, there isn't much room for development as far as the Main God Space is concerned.
As for the resources it brings, the only things worth mentioning in the Re:Zero World are the Divine Protections and the Authorities of the Witches. Fujino had already used the world power through the main god core to copy these things and sell them in the Main God Shop as soon as she arrived. Divine Protections are actually selling very well in the Main God Space because most are relatively cheap and are quite useful for novice Reincarnators, providing good assistance when first venturing into reincarnation worlds.
Aside from that, this world will no longer has any value, and Fujino already has plans for the world's Divine Protections in her hands.
Worlds can devour each other to strengthen themselves, but such a situation is very rare, almost impossible. After all, worlds are separated by great distances and are fixed in place, unable to move. So, while rare, it is not impossible. Once a world perishes, it decomposes, and the decomposed world turns into pure power that begins to drift. In such a case, if this drifting world energy passes by another world, that world can absorb the power to strengthen itself and trigger its own evolution.
For example, if a mundane daily-life world without mystery happens to devour the power of a world, there is a high possibility it will evolve into a low-mystery world. At that time, supernatural users might appear, or a spiritual qi recovery might occur.
Making a world devour another world is very simple for Fujino. She has the ability to easily take a world away; she just needs to cripple the world will.
Fujino's plan is to let Gensokyo devour the Re:Zero World. Gensokyo was born from Fujino's hands. In terms of world level, it is currently only a mid-level world. It looks like just a mid-level world, but that's not actually the case. The current Gensokyo has not yet taken its final shape; to be precise, the story has not yet developed, and the existences of the major mythologies have not yet appeared or clashed. It is still in an unstable state. The moment Gensokyo is fully completed will be when the Gensokyo World stabilizes, and at that time, Gensokyo will be a high-level world.
Since it was personally created by Fujino, its level is naturally not low. If the Re:Zero World is given to Gensokyo to devour, the future level of the Gensokyo World will be even higher, and the power of Divine Protections will also appear in Gensokyo. At that time, the world of Gensokyo will be even more lively.
Returning to the newly purchased villa in the Royal Capital, Fujino sat alone in a chair, looking at the small white ball of light in her hand. She tapped her other hand lightly on the ball, her internal power surging to erase the world will's consciousness. She had already knocked the world will unconscious earlier. The process of erasing its consciousness went without incident; it was just the subconscious struggle of the will, which was no big deal. Fujino's power was too strong, not something a mere world will could resist, let alone one that was half-crippled and weakened.
Having finished these tasks, Fujino directly put the somewhat dim white ball of light back into the system space. A white ball of light that has lost its consciousness can no longer be called a world will; it can only be considered a processor.
Now is not yet the time for Gensokyo to devour the Re:Zero World. The world will is currently incomplete, with half of it still on Satella. Furthermore, devouring the world will means the destruction of the Re:Zero World, and there is still someone in the current Re:Zero World who attracts Fujino—namely, Emilia. Before getting her hands on Emilia, Fujino needs to let the Re:Zero World live a little longer.
"But before that, the matter with Satella needs to be settled."
Fujino stood up with a faint smile, intending to properly educate Satella on how to be a Witch.
"Rem, Ram, I'm going out for a bit. I'll be back soon."
"Understood, Lady Fujino."
Ram's voice came from the kitchen. Obviously, Ram was slacking off again, and the one cooking must be Rem. Then again, Ram's culinary skills aren't as good as Rem's.
Having received a reply, Fujino disappeared from the villa and set off for the space where Satella was located.
On the other side, after Subaru Natsuki was rescued by Reinhard, Reinhard learned that Subaru had no place to stay and warmly invited him to stay at his home for a few days. Fearing that the twin maids would attack again, Subaru agreed.
On the way to Reinhard's home, Subaru asked Reinhard if he knew the identities of the twin maids who wanted to kill him.
"A pink and a blue maid? Do you know them, Subaru?" Reinhard asked with some confusion.
"You recognize them! Who are they?" Subaru asked hurriedly, as it concerned his life.
Reinhard looked at the somewhat agitated Subaru with some surprise, wondering why he was suddenly asking about the twin maids. After all, the person standing behind those twin maids was truly a terrifying individual. Nevertheless, Reinhard explained to Subaru: "They are the maids of a powerful person living on the outermost edge of the Royal Capital. That powerful person holds great Authority in the capital."
"What is that person's name?" Subaru asked quickly. If he knew who the twin maids' master was, he might be able to follow the clues and find out why they were hunting him down.
"That lady's name is Asagami Fujino."
"Asagami Fujino?"
