The World of "No Game No Life"
In this world, sixteen different races coexisted. For the sake of survival, they fought endless battles against each other.
Humans, or the Imanity, ranked the weakest among all sixteen races, so frail that they stood no chance against even the remnants of other races' conflicts.
As a result, Imanity barely managed to eke out a small foothold.
Despite their precarious state, they clung to life in a hidden settlement, led by a man named Riku Dola.
Couronne Dola—a red-haired girl, and village chief Riku's younger sister (per the adjusted setting)—spent each day praying for her brother's safe return with supplies.
All of a sudden, she froze.
[Ding! You have joined the Trade Chat Group!]
Couronne jerked backward, bumping into the cold stone wall behind her. Her heart pounded like a drum, right hand instinctively clutching the bone knife at her waist.
"Is this some illusion from the Elf race? Or a trap by the Ex-Machina?"
She murmured, voice trembling. Her wary gaze swept the area. Any bizarre phenomenon from another race could easily doom the fragile Imanity.
Yet after a moment, Couronne gave a wry smile. Imanity is so pathetic—would anyone bother setting traps for us? If they discovered our hideout, they'd simply wipe us out. No need for elaborate schemes.
Hesitating, Couronne bit her lip and determined to figure out just what this "chat group" was.
Couronne: "Who are you? Are you from another race? Elves? Ex-Machina?"
Frieren: "Elves—I guess that's similar to what I am, yes. But what's the 'Ex-Machina?'"
Couronne's eyes widened in shock. The newcomer had admitted being an Elf!
It's over… She imagined the total destruction of her village. In despair, she foresaw her people's ruin:
Couronne: "Why?! We humans have suffered enough—why annihilate us?! Why drive us to extinction?!"
In that moment, Couronne poured forth her last remnant of courage, questioning the injustice of the world.
Frieren: "Um…why does this new person react so strongly to me being an Elf?"
Sui: "Maybe Elves in her world are dangerous?"
Busujima Saeko: "It's plausible that Elves vary from one world to another."
Bibi Dong: "But judging from how distressed she is, something terrible must have happened."
Stella: "Could she be hunted by Elves?"
Sui: "Please differentiate—she says 'Elf Race.' Let's respect her terminology."
Rei Ao: "Alright, no need to guess. The newcomer's world is pretty chaotic. Think of a planet with sixteen different races locked in endless struggle for a 'Star Cup' that can grant wishes. Among them, Imanity is the weakest, almost like cannon fodder. And among the sixteen, the Elf Race is extremely powerful—each Elf could easily slaughter humans."
Erica: "No wonder she panicked upon hearing 'Elf.'"
Tohru: "Mmm, that world's conflict level is about on par with the dragon realm."
Yomogawa Ayame: "@Couronne, Couronne-san, please don't worry, we mean you no harm."
Yomogawa Ayame: "Frieren and Sui are not Elves from your world. We're all from different worlds, so there's no persecution here."
Reading these friendly messages, Couronne was at a loss. Then she spotted a post from the group's "owner," Rei Ao:
Rei Ao : "Couronne, I'll send you info about the chat group. Whether you trust it is up to you."
A splitting headache struck her as some kind of knowledge forced its way into her mind. In an instant, she understood the basics of the chat group. Yet Couronne found it hard to believe.
Couronne: "A chat group linking different worlds? Could that exist?"
Yatogami Tohka: "Don't worry, I was also confused at first. But Rei Ao showed me what's real."
Couronne's breathing quickened. Different worlds? That went beyond her comprehension. Her world had the legend of sixteen races vying for the Star Cup, never any mention of other worlds.
Couronne: "If you truly are from other worlds, tell me what yours are like."
Miko Yotsuya: "Uh, my place was originally just normal—though we had evil spirits. But they're all exorcised now thanks to Rei Ao, so it's peaceful!"
Aihara Enju: "My world got destroyed by Rei Ao. I live in Akame's world now."
Akame: "Yep, Enju and her friends are strong and adorable."
Bibi Dong: "I'm in the Divine Realm, specifically in Rei Ao's divine palace."
Shiba Miyuki: "My world uses psionic magic."
Hiiragi Shinoa: "Mine's currently a war between humans and vampires."
Couronne's fingers trembled as she clutched her fur cloak. All these descriptions seemed utterly foreign—maybe it wasn't a trap?
Couronne felt her beliefs waver…
