In essence, this is a city that perfectly fits the settings of any so-called "Another World."
It is situated beneath a cloudless sky, bathed in the radiant sunlight. Medieval-style buildings line up in an orderly fashion, and cobblestone streets stretch across the entire area.
People traverse the streets adorned in various fantastical attires, creating a scenery resembling a city filled with adventurous elements, seemingly extracted from a fantasy world.
Though not as diverse as the Main God's Dimension in terms of species, here, on the bustling streets, you can still witness beings that would never appear in the 3D reality.
For instance, crowds with animal ears and features reminiscent of wild beasts pass in and out of buildings, sometimes buying items from nearby stalls and other times satisfying their hunger at surrounding restaurants and taverns. The lively atmosphere persists, creating an incredible ambiance.
Of course, there are humans here too. However, these humans also wear a variety of medieval-style eccentric outfits, some even clad in armor and wielding longswords, resembling adventurers and mighty knights one after another. The sight is genuinely astonishing.
Added to this are the gigantic lizard-like creatures, comparable in size to horses, pulling carriages that dash along the streets. No matter how you look at it, this setting perfectly conforms to the expectations of every transmigrator for an "Another World," leaving no room for any sense of discord.
Unfortunately, to the indigenous inhabitants of this Another World, the presence of so-called transmigrators would undoubtedly be discordant. Here, men can wear armor but certainly not casual clothes or sportswear while strolling around. If such individuals were to exist, wouldn't it be filled with a sense of discordance?
And precisely this sense of discordance manifests at this very moment, in a square-like location in the city.
"......"
"......"
An indescribable sense of silence pervades between the two individuals, making the air subtly tense. In front of a finely crafted fountain, a man in casual clothes and another in sportswear stare at each other, both falling into a speechless state.
Around them, the residents turn their heads, observing the scene while whispering amongst themselves, quickly distancing themselves as if worried about being caught up in a conflict.
Yet, their concerns prove to be in vain.
At least, neither party has any intention of causing a dispute.
Especially Fang Li, who finds the situation somewhat absurd.
"What on earth is this?"
After the Dungeon World Quest was released, Fang Li was transported to this place amidst a familiar feeling of teleportation dizziness.
Shortly afterward, a youth of similar age, wearing uncouth sportswear and appearing to be a high school student from the Island Country, stared at Fang Li with an incredible look in his eyes, rendering Fang Li completely speechless.
The reason being that Fang Li recognized the identity of the other person and knew the current circumstances. However, the opposite held true for the other side, as they completely delved into a fanciful delusion.
Because, the next moment, Fang Li heard the following words.
"Another World summons have no problem, but what's the deal with having two protagonists?"
There's no need for a deliberate reminder; in the real world, not only would these words be considered chuuni, but anyone hearing them would also think the speaker is insane.
However, the young man before Fang Li seems completely oblivious to this fact. With arms crossed and eyes closed, he contemplates as if pondering a serious issue and starts muttering to himself.
"Wait, perhaps this is the feeling of encountering a formidable rival? Two protagonists simultaneously transmigrating to Another World, initially supporting each other, dependent on one another. Then, in some crucial triggering event, one stands for justice, while the other meets an unfortunate fate. Eventually, both head towards the path of confrontation?"
"But isn't this destined for a tragic ending? What a lousy plot!"
"And, isn't the summoning for Another World supposed to involve only beautiful girls, beautiful girls, and more beautiful girls? What's the deal with a guy showing up?"
"Whatever, having someone as company is better than none. Anyway, before the beautiful girls appear, let's greet each other!"
After this self-directed performance, the youth acts as if nothing happened. He opens his eyes, runs his fingers through his hair, then turns towards Fang Li, raising one hand and giving a wave.
"Hey, brother! It seems we've both been summoned. Although I don't know what's going on, I'm called Natsuki Subaru. As you can see, I'm a high school student about to become the main character. How about it? Doesn't this setting feel like Another World?"
Saying this, the youth named Natsuki Subaru flashes a bright smile, revealing his pearly white teeth, a glint even passing over them. If only one could ignore the plastic bag he is holding up with his waving hand.
"......"
Fang Li has to admit that since entering the Main God's Dimension, this is the first time he has felt so powerless.
To be honest, Fang Li doesn't even know whether to be happy or sigh.
The reason for sighing is self-evident. Having a chuuni youth immersed in his own world acting foolishly in front of him, anyone would sigh.
As for happiness, Fang Li did feel it initially.
Because Fang Li came to this world mainly for this youth.
The youth named Natsuki Subaru.
It's because of this youth that Fang Li deliberately chose this world and entered this dungeon.
And now, having effortlessly encountered his target, Fang Li, could it be that shouldn't be happy?
However, encountering such a situation instantly extinguished any joyous emotions.
So, Fang Li remained silent.
In this situation, Natsuki Subaru's smile seems to have become somewhat stiff.
It's not because the other person is exceptionally good at reading facial expressions, and sensing Fang Li's emotions, but rather maintaining this posture for too long, making it a bit tiring.
So, with a somewhat rigid smile, Natsuki Subaru starts moving toward Fang Li.
"Um... could it be that there's a language barrier? Hello? Hi?"
Seeing Natsuki Subaru's foolish face approaching, Fang Li pondered for 0.001 seconds and finally made a decision.
He threw a punch at the somewhat foolish face in front of him.
"Bang—!"
A muffled sound reverberated.
