Chapter 90: Suddenly a Superstar?
Chapter 90: Suddenly a Superstar?
"Uncle, come and take a look at this! Something big is happening!"
Gaoqiu Jingwen, who had been closely monitoring online trends due to recent public opinion, was startled as he watched a trending news story on the internet.
Hearing his shout, his uncle and Fujimi Akasaka also turned their attention to the computer screen.
On the screen, a video was playing, showing Night City Princess holding Cui, jumping and leaping from a sedan.
Above this trending news, a prominent title caught the eye—'The Son of God and the Elven Princess, the Most Mysterious and Popular Figures of the Moment, Suddenly Appear in the Streets of Tokyo.'
When they saw the footage captured by the camera, and noticed the clothing and appearances of Night City and Cui, the uncle was almost certain that the two individuals in the news were the real deal!
"I need to step out for a bit. If anything else happens online, be sure to call me."
Upon hearing the uncle's words, Gaoqiu Jingwen and Fujimi Akasaka were momentarily stunned. The uncle's excitement indicated that the Night City and Cui in the news were indeed the real people!
"Uncle, so you're saying that Night City and Cui in the news are actually them?"
"There's no mistake. Night City's unique aura is unmistakable, and do regular cosplay enthusiasts have their level of beauty?"
After the uncle's confirmation, Gaoqiu Jingwen and Fujimi Akasaka were initially stunned, but soon they became incredibly excited.
Having watched numerous otherworldly dramas, they had developed a deep admiration for Night City and Cui.
And now, with the arrival of these two individuals in their world, genuine visitors from another world, how could they not be thrilled?
As there weren't many people with magical abilities in this world, the uncle was quickly located by Night City, who possessed 'Aura Perception,' shortly after arriving at their location.
Despite his usual stoic expression, the uncle's face lit up with excitement and joy at seeing his dear friend in their world after so long.
Just as the uncle was about to express his excitement with a hug, Night City pushed him away, looking disgusted. He then pointed at a large billboard on a nearby commercial building, indicating that he wanted an explanation for this situation.
When asked about it, the uncle's face turned sheepish, and he proceeded to explain what had happened since his return to this world.
"So, you, being jobless, decided to become a video blogger, and your fame skyrocketed due to your memories of the other world?"
Hearing Night City's confirmation, Shima Yousuke nodded vigorously, like a chick pecking at rice.
"No, I understand your desire to become an internet celebrity, but how did things escalate to this? We didn't do anything, and suddenly we're huge celebrities in your world! You must not have seen the commotion before. Goodness, there were people everywhere, inside and out. If I hadn't stopped Cui in time, she would have used magic."
Night City and Cui had come to Shima Yousuke's world intending to vacation, test the completion of the 'Yihai,' and possibly bring back some souvenirs.
Since only two 'Yihai' were prepared, Cui and Meibelu had been vying for the opportunity.
For Cui, a trip to the other world with Night City alone was akin to a honeymoon.
And for Meibelu, the so-called Otherworld was filled with things akin to "comic books," which greatly piqued the interest of this homebody.
"I never expected something like this to happen..."
Previously, Uncle only wanted to attract attention with his unique Otherworld battles, but even he didn't anticipate that most people in this world were shallow, judging solely by appearances.
Yecheng and Cui, with their strength and good looks, naturally gained a following.
"You, using our names to make money without our consent! Have you shared the profits with us?"
"Never mind, I'm leaving. I'm not here to be treated like a monkey on display."
Modern society held little novelty for Yecheng, and after proving the viability of Yihai, he naturally planned to leave, intending to return once the situation calmed down.
"Wait, you barely got here, and you're leaving so soon?"
Uncle had crossed over at the age of seventeen, and due to his reclusive nature and status as a hardcore homebody, he had no friends.
After spending seventeen years in the Otherworld, he had no friends in this world, not even acquaintances, aside from his own family.
In contrast, Shima Yousuke gained friendships during his seventeen years in the Otherworld that he had never experienced in the previous seventeen years.
Upon returning to this world, Shima Yousuke's only regret was the possibility of never seeing his good friends from Yecheng again.
Now that Yecheng and his companions had appeared in his world and reunited with him, Shima Yousuke didn't want to let Yecheng leave after a brief chat.
"What else can we do? You've made us into celebrities with your antics.
Are you suggesting we disguise ourselves when we go shopping in your world?"
Ten minutes later, the figures of Yecheng and his two companions appeared in the rented cottage where Shima Yousuke and Gaoqiujingwen used to live.
Ten minutes ago, after much persuasion from Shima Yousuke, Yecheng reluctantly agreed to stay temporarily, and Cui played a significant role in this decision.
Cui spoke up because she was curious about this Otherworld, which had a style completely different from Granbaharamal.
Additionally, she had worked hard to win this honeymoon trip over Meibelu, so she didn't want it to end abruptly.
If she let this opportunity slip away, she would regret it for life. In this world, only she was currently by Yecheng's side; there was no Meibelu with her adorable demeanor, no human-like Blaze Dragon, and no busty Soma or Alicia.
Without these annoying companions, such opportunities were rare. If she ended the trip hastily, it would be her fault for never being able to capture Yecheng's heart.
"It's really Mr. Yecheng and Miss Cui!"
"We are Fujimi Akasaka and Gaoqiujingwen, uncle's nephew and childhood friend."
Seeing the living Yecheng and Cui, both Gaoqiujingwen and Fujimi Akasaka were thrilled.
However, after getting to know each other, Gaoqiujingwen and Fujimi Akasaka understood why they could become friends with someone like Uncle.
Their personalities were too easygoing; despite their incredible strength, they carried no arrogance of power, and even towards ordinary people like them, they maintained a friendly and kind demeanor.
