"Oh?!" With a scream, Natsuki Subaru lay on the ground, covering his face, desperately rolling around, startling the passersby.
Fang Li withdrew his fist, which he had just swung, and casually uttered a line of thought.
"Sorry, I couldn't hold back."
Couldn't hold back?
Couldn't hold back?
Just because you Couldn't hold back, you punched me?
What kind of reasoning is this?
Natsuki Subaru had a mournful face. Due to the overly expressive expression, he felt the pain from the punch he had just received, causing his face to twitch.
"Damn, why is it that when others cross into another world, they are chased by beautiful girls, and I end up eating a punch from a Great Elder here? The perks of being a crosser are too low! I want to complain!"
Naturally, no one paid attention to Natsuki Subaru's complaints.
In the eyes of others, Natsuki Subaru was not only a person with a peculiar appearance but also a Mysterious Being who kept talking about unfathomable mysteries, already listed as someone to be kept at a distance.
Only Fang Li truly understood Natsuki Subaru's words.
No.
It should be said that from just now until now, Natsuki Subaru had mentioned that term more than once.
—' Crossing Over.'
Exactly.
Crossing over.
Leaving aside Fang Li, the main Divine Envoy, the young man in sportswear in front of him was indeed a crosser.
Just like in a typical crossing-over novel.
Less than ten minutes ago, Natsuki Subaru was still a student living in the modern Island Country, a shut-in who suffered from school phobia and spent all day playing games at home.
But just now, this shut-in crossed over.
After coming out of the convenience store, he directly crossed over to this Another World.
Fang Li never expected that he would encounter this so-called crosser in the first moments of entering the Dungeon World.
Moreover, looking at the timeline, Fang Li's entry into the Dungeon World happened exactly at the same time as Natsuki Subaru's crossing into this other world. Even the location was completely identical.
Perhaps for this reason, this time, the Main God's Dimension did not arrange any identity for Fang Li.
In other words, Fang Li had no background or identity whatsoever in this Another World. Like Natsuki Subaru, he could be considered a very abrupt crosser in this world.
So, Fang Li squatted on one knee, looking at Natsuki Subaru lying on the ground, not bothering to get up, and spoke with a smirk.
"Although both of us are crossers, isn't our first impression of each other a bit too terrible?"
Isn't it?
In Fang Li's eyes, Natsuki Subaru was just a hikikomori without any bright spots.
And in Natsuki Subaru's eyes, Fang Li probably didn't leave a good impression either.
"However, one thing is certain."
In the puzzled expression of Natsuki Subaru, Fang Li said, "There are no beautiful girls who summoned us here, and there's no such thing as crosser perks. If we don't properly assess the current situation, we won't survive, you know?"
"Not survive?" Natsuki Subaru's expression froze.
Clearly, this hikikomori, bombarded by modern internet information until just now, was still immersed in the extraordinary brain circuit of the crossing event, without even considering the inevitable consequences after crossing.
"No... it's okay!"
Natsuki Subaru suddenly jumped up, turned over, stood up, hands on hips, and laughed triumphantly.
"In this situation, according to the usual development, we will soon encounter our destined other half, such as a girl persecuted by nobles, an Ojou-sama cherished by her family, or a Kingdom princess playing incognito. As long as we step forward to save them when they are in danger, and become the hero who rescues beauty, we can then embark on conquering them. There will be a lot of beautiful life ahead. What's there to worry about when it comes to food?"
From Natsuki Subaru's words, Fang Li didn't detect a trace of bravado.
What does this prove?
It proves that he really thinks that way.
Could it be that this person really thinks that after crossing, he can naturally become the protagonist, establish a harem in Another World, and live a happy and fulfilling life?
The imagination can reach such extremes; it's hard to say whether it's optimistic or tragic.
However, one thing Natsuki Subaru said was correct.
That is, next, the two of them will indeed have an encounter.
An encounter that, for both of them, could be considered the beginning of standing out in this Another World.
"Hmm?"
Looking at Natsuki Subaru laughing over there with an inexplicable gaze, Fang Li's attention was drawn to a corner of his field of vision. A petite figure suddenly rushed past, catching his eye.
Fang Li subconsciously looked over, and shortly afterward, he saw it.
On the rooftop of the buildings beside the main street, a petite girl was running wildly, like an agile little cat, traversing the bustling street in this manner.
Watching this scene, Fang Li raised an eyebrow and then pointed in that direction, saying to Natsuki Subaru.
"Could that be the beautiful girl you've been thinking about meeting?"
Hearing these words, Natsuki Subaru was initially stunned. When he saw the girl running past the buildings on the side of the street, his eyes immediately lit up, and he exclaimed.
"She's here! She's here! This illogical movement technique and the charm that naturally attracts attention! She must be the beautiful girl who summoned us!"
Saying so, Natsuki Subaru struck a jumping pose.
"Look at the current development. In normal circumstances, it's impossible for ordinary people to catch up with a beautiful girl running on the roof. But we are crossers. Perhaps the gravity in this world is only one-tenth of that in our world, so we can completely jump up to chase her. This is the fixed event we are about to trigger!"
"Watch me!"
As the words fell, Natsuki Subaru, with an astonishing imposing manner, leaped suddenly.
"Swoosh—!"
In the sharp breaking wind sound, amidst the astonished gazes of onlookers, Natsuki Subaru felt himself soaring into the air, rising high.
"OoohOooh—!"
Feeling the ground getting further away, and surrounded by the whistling air, Natsuki Subaru let out an excited shout.
"It's truly the treatment only protagonists get! I'm super powerful now!"
After saying that, a voice lazily responded to Natsuki Subaru.
"Yes, yes, yes, you're the best."
With these words, Natsuki Subaru suddenly realized that the collar behind him was being vigorously pulled, lifting him into the air in this manner.
As for Fang Li, who was holding Natsuki Subaru, he didn't even glance at him. After landing on the rooftop, he stomped forcefully and soared into the sky once again.
Natsuki Subaru was dumbfounded.
"It turns out I'm not the one with the protagonist treatment!"
