Chapter 89: Not Cosplay, But the Real Deal!
Chapter 89: Not Cosplay, But the Real Deal!
"So this is the world of Orcs? The air here is terrible, and there's so much I've never seen before."
Cui, who had just stepped out of the light portal, coughed violently due to the poor air quality of the modern world. After recovering, she scanned her surroundings and spoke up.
Compared to the world of her uncle, where beauty standards were exceptionally high, this place fell short.
In Cui's eyes, almost everyone here was on par with Shima Yousuke in terms of looks, resembling half-orcs. However, Yecheng knew that this was the standard of beauty for humans.
"Cui, before we came here, didn't I teach you a lot of common sense? If you talk like that, we'll both get beaten up..."
Yecheng and Cui's ability to travel to this world was made possible by Yecheng's knowledge of the Shinigami world, combined with the technology from the mechanical puppet in the labyrinth, which took him over a decade to develop into the "Yihai."
Unlike Shima Yousuke's situation, Yecheng and Cui did not possess their original bodies in this world.
Their method of crossing over seemed to involve soul-transmigration, so they required a "Yihai" to function in this world.
"Yecheng, look at the painting on that building. Isn't that you? You said you and the Orc weren't from the same world, right? Then why is there a painting of you here... No, why are there also paintings of me and Meibelu?!"
Following Cui's finger, Yecheng looked at a nearby commercial building adorned with a massive advertisement featuring none other than himself, gripping a long sword and riding a Blaze Dragon in flight!
"Huh? Is this an official cosplay? It's so cool, and the resemblance is uncanny!"
"What cosplay? Look at their natural hair and makeup; they're the real deal! The legendary 'White-Haired Son of the God,' Yecheng, and the 'Elven Princess,' Cui, are here!"
"What a grand gesture! Has that company finally allowed Yecheng and Cui to make an appearance? I always thought they were virtual characters!"
They were in the busiest street of the Tokyo District, and with their unique appearances, coupled with their exceptional beauty, especially Cui's recent actions, they immediately drew the attention of many onlookers.
As people began to notice them, they realized that the hottest celebrities of the moment, Yecheng and Cui, were standing right in front of them! Names like Yecheng, Cui, Meibelu, and Alicia were on everyone's lips in this world, thanks to the viral videos of Gaoqiujingwen.
With the popularity of these videos, Yecheng and Cui, known for their stunning looks and formidable abilities, had amassed a massive fan following in this world.
However, Gaoqiujingwen's company had maintained strict confidentiality regarding these internet stars.
Rumors suggested that paparazzi and talent scouts had tried to uncover gossip or recruit Yecheng and his team, but despite their efforts, they hadn't found a single trace.
Consequently, a theory emerged online suggesting that Yecheng, Cui, and the other actors in these videos might be computer-generated virtual characters, as no one so perfect could exist in the real world.
When this opinion surfaced, it gained considerable traction among netizens.
In the end, their company, with its ability to create such astonishing special effects, could very well fabricate virtual characters as well.
As the situation escalated, even their personal website was on the verge of being overwhelmed by the flood of negative comments.
Left with no other choice, my uncle used his Transformation Magic to transform himself into Yecheng, turned Fujimi Akasaka into Cui, and his nephew Gaoqiujingwen into Alicia, revealing themselves in front of the camera.
The first appearance of "Yecheng" and the others in the video naturally excited netizens, but as another half-month passed, doubts began to resurface.
People online started questioning if the "Yecheng" in the video was also a fictional character, just like the ones in the short film. However, with the live appearances of Yecheng and Cui, the crowd no longer believed the online trolls.
The moment Yecheng and Cui showed up, the online rumors were instantly dispelled.
"Yecheng, what should we do now? Can I step in and drive these people away?"
As the crowd closed in, a hint of fear flashed across Cui's face.
Although she didn't sense any malice from the approaching crowd, their slightly manic expressions made her feel as if they were fanatical cultists.
"Absolutely not! They aren't like Shima Yousuke. If you intervene, things will only get worse.
Have you forgotten the common sense I told you before? In this world, we must not use magic openly."
Just as Cui was about to use her magic to push back the encroaching crowd, Yecheng stopped her.
It was no joke; the physical qualities of people in the modern world couldn't be compared to those in the other world.
Even if Cui held back, she might still seriously injure someone. Moreover, with the dense crowd, there was a risk of a stampede, not to mention the trouble if their magic was exposed.
Information spread rapidly in modern society, and as soon as Yecheng and Cui appeared in the streets of Tokyo, the media and fans, drawn by the commotion, quickly surrounded them, making it impossible to move.
Out of desperation, Yecheng had no choice but to bend down, pick up Cui, and jump onto a nearby car.
Demonstrating extraordinary physical prowess, he leaped out of the encirclement and fled with Cui in his arms.
The Tokyo citizens witnessing this scene were not surprised but instead became even more excited! This further proved that the Yecheng before them was the real deal! Ever since Yecheng became famous, my uncle had publicly stated that he was a master of Nigenshuu's sword techniques, passed down through the All-Permitted Transmission.
The term "All-Permitted Transmission" undoubtedly implied a master-level practitioner, so the crowd wasn't surprised by Yecheng's abilities.
On the contrary, they were thrilled because my uncle, the blogger, had not been lying.
The young Yecheng was indeed a master of the "All-Permitted Transmission," not only youthful and handsome but also a genuine powerhouse in the real world.
Watching Yecheng carrying Cui in a princess carry and leaping away, the crowd even felt as if they were in a movie.
