[ Seimei is relaxing in one of the restaurant booths, apparently having a hot cup of coffee when he decides to pop up on the network. ]

Hello everyone! Has anyone figured out if we can go through the top yet?

[ Since powers all seem to be dampened and no one he's met yet can fly, it might actually make sense if the city had an opening above them. Well, it's at least worth setting that thought out for the public. They might get a chance to test it eventually. ]

Ah, but for an empty city, it's strange how consistent this place is when it makes us food. You would think that we would get some bad cups of coffee at least. It's more strange that it doesn't make mistakes.

[ He takes a sip to demonstrate. See? Perfect every time! ]

Since I'm talking about weird, my friend said that the only people brought here are strange ones. I thought it sounded like a good theory, so I want to ask: what is your strangest experience? Yes, we're all different from each other, but are you different from the people you came from? Or if we see things that are strange, sometimes we attract more things... Or maybe you're completely normal and this is a fluke?

I just wonder if this is really the first time something like this happened for all of us.

[ How many isekai veterans are in the city? This is important. ]

[ The response may be only a call, but he'll take it. At least it's a reply. ]

Well, we might not get whole people up at first, but that's where the strange part comes in. I'm sure at least some of us have experience related to just such situations. If there are enough of us with some ingenuity, we could work together and figure out a plan, right?

That's why I'm asking which of us is the strangest.

[ Perfect logic. ]

There might be a farm or something similar outside of our current boundaries. I'd like to try finding out more about that possibility as well, but it seems a bit harder.

I think you need to specify by what you mean by "strange." Either way, I suppose if we had an engineer to make something like a balloon or whatever go up into the sky, I could see the merit. Though frankly it wouldn't shock me at this point if there were people capable of flight or something, too.

Yes, it's a thought. It's not exactly on the top of my questions, but you have to wonder how they end up with such immaculate produce and meals. Maybe they just have very good chefs, or some kind of spell or whatever.

[emyoji]

That's exactly what I want to find out. Strange for one world is probably different from strange in another. If we don't compare, how do we know how strange this city is? We've all been picked out, haven't we? Maybe there's a reason, but if everyone is used to something different, it's harder to tell what reason that is.

[ And this is definitely how he gets good ideas like this! ]

Even spells have to rely on resources and are often prone to errors if they're used too frequently. Isn't it a little weird that we always have food and supplies available if we need them? And we don't owe them anything at all? I think that's strange, personally.

[limbical]

That's so non-specific. What the hell do you even want me to say about that?

Depends on the spell, or maybe they're just really good mages. Anyway, yes, no shit it's weird. I don't think anyone here assumes it's normal.

[emyoji]

Anything you want! I don't want to limit your definition of weird just because I have one. It's okay, even if it's something you don't think is important. Just tell me about something that made you say "huh, that's not normal."

Some people might think this is normal. What if we meet time travelers or space adventurers? There might be some people here that do this all the time.

[limbical]

I suppose I see your point of logic. I suppose the weirdest thing I experienced was going into other dimensions. That was sort of the peak moment that I decided not a lot else would surprise me at that point.

[emyoji]

Oh? So you've been to other dimensions before this?

[ That's potentially useful, but they can't just assume it'll all be the same at face value. ]

What kind of dimensions were they? Did you meet anyone there?

[limbical]

I have. Not really an outright other world, I don't think.

I wouldn't call them... people. But it was a dimension that was created by the God of Trickery, Rher. I don't expect you to recognize the name.

[emyoji]

Not a world? So not a complete realm?

[ See, there's plenty to learn. ]

I don't recognize the name, but that's even better. How does this city compare to a dimension built by a god?
