Chapter 880 - Another World (Part 3)
Chapter 880 of "Demi-human Girls Completion Manual" begins with intriguing events: What Fisher saw was just a disillusioned middle-aged man, with a cheating wife and a... Donât miss it!
What Fisher saw was just a disillusioned middle-aged man, with a cheating wife and a rebellious daughter, living an albeit crappy but not particularly unusual human life. The same seemed true for Tangze Asuka in front of him.He silently noted the country from which the other party came in his mind, then continued to ask,
"Have you ever heard of the name... United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland?"
"Huh?"
Tangze Asuka was slightly taken aback, raised her head to look at Fisher with great excitement, and repeatedly said,
"You... youâre really not from some TV station or school... playing a prank? How do you know..."
Even Hooked kiss, who had been listening behind, had a flicker of a different color in his eyes. He turned his head to scrutinize Fisher once again and then showed a thoughtful expression.
But Fisher, seeing her reaction, felt a slight shock in his heart and hurriedly asked,
"Do you really know?"
"Yeah, yeah, I... I know. Itâs a country we typically call âthe UK,â a very distant place from our country. Hmm, let me think... well, sorry, my geography really is somewhat poor because I didnât choose that subject at school. But, in any case, it seems weâre on one continent, itâs in Europe, and weâre in Asia."
Fisher quickly realized that these Transferees likely all came from the same world. Although, judging by the cultural symbols they left behind, they seemingly did not know each other, just like a Nali weaver would never possibly know a painter living in Schwali or a cleaner from Kado, yet they come from the same world.
So, is it possible that the author of the Demi-human Girls Completion Manual also comes from this world?
"Wait, can you help me see if the owner of this writing comes from your country? The script she uses seems the same as the text on your badge."
"Huh?"
Under Tangze Asukaâs rather surprised gaze, the Magic Circuit in Fisherâs hand started to light up little by little. He then forcibly imbued it with magic power, leaving glistening text on the cell wall. Though the text would vanish once his magic dissipated, at this moment in the darkness, that line of text was exceptionally eye-catching.
There appeared a line of block text on the wall, very accurately restored by Fisher, which read,
"First of all, I am not a demi-human girl control."
Fisher turned to look at Tangze Asuka. After carefully reading it, she unexpectedly shook her head, and then softly said,
"Um... Fisher... sir, can I call you that?"
"Yes."
"Well, um, actually, our country originally had no writing. All the characters we use came from an ancient country to our west, quite close to us. Although todayâs Japanese has undergone lots of changes through our modifications, many remain exactly the same as their original form in their homeland..."
Tangze Asuka raised her fingers and sketched a few straightforward strokes in mid-air, then hugged her knees again,
"The script you wrote is the pure âHan charactersâ used by the ancient kingdom called âChina.â So... could the person youâre asking about also come from there?"
Indeed, the author of the Demi-human Girls Completion Manual, just like the Magic Minister, comes from the same world.
"I see, do you understand that place?"
"Hmm, I guess I know a little? Because lots of anime on TV have elements related to China. Thereâs a really cute animal there called the panda, and a very beautiful dress called the qipao. Iâve also heard that itâs very, very traditional over there... but Iâve never been, Iâve only been to Tokyo and Capital City domestically..."
Traditional... huh?
Fisher was slightly stunned, unable to extract any valuable information from Tangze Asukaâs description. Even if there was a bit, it seemed to have nothing to do with that peculiar Transferee.
