My Wives Of Simulation

Chapter 49: The British Band Debuts!

______

In the City of Glory in Britain, within the grand palace, Morgan sat alongside four other women, all intently studying the mysterious chat group that had appeared in their minds.

Morgan: "Everyone… do you think this chat group truly exists?"

Earlier that morning, Morgan had been suddenly pulled into what the interface called the Ten thousand world Chat Group. To her surprise, not only she but also Mellie, Artoria, Guinevere, and Vivian had been included.

The nature of the group was shrouded in mystery. Even within the Eternal Empire of Glory, such an existence was unheard of.

Vivian: "It's undoubtedly magical. Though unfamiliar, I believe it's likely a means to get closer to the master."

The five women exchanged glances. Each of them knew Elric had come to Camelot from another world, carrying with him a destiny cloaked in enigma. Though he had refrained from delving too deeply into the secrets of his origin, Elric had shared tales of the parallel worlds, heroic spirits, and the potential for a Holy Grail War in the future.

Hearing Vivian's reasoning, Artoria and Guinevere nodded in agreement.

Artoria: "If it is connected to the master, what should we do next? The group seems barren now. Nobody is talking, and none of its features are functional."

Since Elric's departure, Artoria had inherited the throne. Once again ruling Britain as King Arthur, she had grown into a formidable monarch, exuding both strength and wisdom.

Guinevere: "I agree. However, the notes on the group members are rather peculiar. Aside from the one called Yukinoshita Haruno, which sounds like a human name, and Tyrant Nero, who is clearly the emperor of Rome, the rest of the notes are… baffling."

As the intellectual among the five, Guinevere's brilliance was her greatest asset—surpassing even her renowned beauty.

Mellie: "Why overthink this? Why not just ask them directly?"

True to her nature, Mellie was a pragmatist who disdained overcomplicating matters. Her philosophy was simple: if you could talk, don't hesitate; if you could act, don't delay. Moreover, the group rules explicitly forbade members from attacking or harming one another. Feeling confident, Mellie decided to break the silence herself.

Nightmare: "Hello everyone, I am Mellie Ambrosius, a legendary wizard from Britain, the Sword Master of Avalon, the King's guide, and the Crown Magician of Vit…"

Nightmare: "The four ladies with me are my good sisters. Together, we form the British Group!"

Her bold introduction, accompanied by a direct tag to Morgan, Artoria, Guinevere, and Vivian, caused quite a stir.

---

Perfectionist: "The British Group? But aren't you from the modern world?"

At her home, Yukinoshita Yukino, who was preparing for school, paused to check her phone. The incessant notifications from the chat group had caught her attention. She assumed the new chatter would be from Kasumi Utako and the Princess, who had joined just the night before. Instead, she found herself confronted by a wave of unfamiliar names.

"Seven new members in less than a day… what's going on?" she muttered.

---

Nightmare: "Modern world? Perfectionist, is your time different from ours?"

Mellie blinked in surprise. The group member's words hinted at something extraordinary—differences in not just geography but perhaps even time itself.

---

Perfectionist: "Of course. Didn't you notice? The group rules clearly explain this. Not only are we from different timelines, but some of us are likely from entirely separate worlds."

Her reply was calm and precise, reflecting her analytical nature.

At this, Mellie scrolled up to re-read the rules, her curiosity piqued.

[Rule 1 of the Ten Thousand Worlds Chat Group]:

This group serves as a link across the heavens and all worlds. Members are encouraged to help and support one another, fostering harmony. Hostility and physical confrontation between members are strictly prohibited.

[Rule 2 of the Ten Thousand Worlds Chat Group: This group invites the most promising girls across the heavens and worlds. Men are prohibited from joining.]

Mellie: "Um, I didn't pay attention... Hahaha."

Wearing an awkward yet polite smile, Mellie admitted she hadn't read the rules properly before speaking. She really was an unreliable stay-at-home.

Yukinoshita Yukino: "...Okay, but are you from Britain?"

In her memory, Britain's history was extensive, but after seeing Mellie's long list of titles, Yukino checked her phone and found no references to an Avalon Sword Saint, Legendary Archmage, or Crown Magician.

Morgan: "We are indeed from Britain, but it is not the one you imagine. Ours is an eternal empire—a new world created by the King of Glory."

She inferred that the other group members probably came from parallel worlds, as Elric had once explained. Morgan felt a deep pride in Britain becoming an eternal empire. Her words subtly referenced Elric, implying that anyone familiar with the Lord of Glory would not disregard such a figure.

Yukinoshita Yukino: "King of Glory? I haven't heard of it... But I do know another group member: King Arthur, the one who ended the chaos and established the Knights of the Round Table."

Tagging Artoria directly, Yukino acknowledged her lack of knowledge about the King of Glory but emphasized her familiarity with King Arthur.

Artoria: "You know me? But not my teacher? This..."

Looking at Morgan and the others, the five British girls exchanged surprised glances at Yukino's response.

"Well, the king once mentioned being from another world, so I'll make a guess. If the king hasn't appeared, then the King Arthur you represent, Artoria, must be the history of this world, right?"

Analyzing the situation, Guinevere refrained from speaking in the group, instead addressing those in the palace directly. After voicing her thoughts, she turned to Mellie, seeking confirmation.

"Yes, exactly. My clairvoyance first revealed the birth of the British Red Dragon and the defeat of the White Dragon, yet I still couldn't stop their mysterious disappearance."

Mellie nodded in agreement, confirming Guinevere's speculation. She continued, "It wasn't until Rhine appeared that these original histories were altered."

Indeed, Yukino was likely referring to an alternate Britain.

Tyrant Nero: "Hmm, is there someone new here? The British... people... I feel like I've heard of you before."

As a ruler in the Roman Empire, Nero had taken painstaking efforts to maintain Elric's legacy after his departure. Over ten years, she had worked to spread the ideals of equality, fairness, and justice across Rome. Concealing her existence, she ensured the people gradually accepted the emperor's absence, aiming to establish a true federal system.

Hearing the group's discussion, she recalled that Britain had once been a Roman archipelago, though its development seemed unremarkable.

Tyrant Nero: "Since you're from Britain, have you heard of player—the Eternal Night Emperor?"

In her heart, Nero firmly believed Elric was the greatest king. She frequently recounted Elric's legendary deeds to group members like Kaguya, who had come to admire the Roman Empire's transformation. Because Elric's reforms affected their real-world counterparts, figures like Kaguya could engage with Nero in meaningful dialogue.

Eager to share her admiration, Nero was now intent on introducing Mellie and the others to Elric's name, her tone brimming with the enthusiasm of a child showing off their parent's strength.
