This was the girl's seventh time traversing worlds. The dizziness had become minimal by now.
As she opened her eyes, just like in previous traversals, the first thing she did upon arriving in a new world was to observe her surroundings.
At this moment, she was floating high in the sky, able to see scenes from hundreds of miles away with a single glance, taking in the full beauty of this world.
It was a truly beautiful world.
In this realm, majestic mountains and crystal-clear streams complemented each other. Dense forests blanketed the land, and verdant leaves swayed gently in the breeze. Towering mountains wound like giant dragons, with mist brushing softly over their peaks—a scene straight out of a poem or a painting.
The stream bubbled and flowed cheerfully, clear down to the bottom, like silver ribbons weaving through the thick forest. The forest was lush, with a riot of colorful flowers blooming in competition.
Coming from a settlement space filled with only white mist, and then suddenly witnessing such breathtaking beauty—even a girl who had experienced the scenery of many different worlds was stunned by the natural beauty of this one.
This was the first time she had seen a landscape that truly deserved to be described as a "fairy tale."
There were no concrete buildings in sight, no signs of violence or battle—such beauty and peace gave her an inexplicable sense of calm.
After checking the surroundings and confirming no threats were present, the girl began examining herself.
She was no longer Yamai Kazamachi.
The black-purple binding armor on her body had disappeared, replaced by a pure white ceremonial dress.
Her smooth, delicate legs were wrapped in white stockings. Her hands were covered in white lace gloves. She wore a luxurious white and gold ceremonial gown, its extended hem resembling angel wings.
The center of the gown was open, exposing the area between her navel and chest, yet it did not appear indecent or provocative—instead, it exuded a sense of holiness and purity.
On her head floated a golden crown, from which hung a faint veil, like a bride's.
"Ah… Origami Tobiichi, huh…"
The girl immediately recognized the identity of this body, and her expression became troubled.
The Spirit of Light—Origami Tobiichi.
In the original Date A Live, she was a character whose tragedy surpassed even that of Kurumi Tokisaki.
As a child, she had witnessed her parents being killed in the aftermath of a spirit's appearance, vowing ever since to kill all spirits. She suppressed her emotions and worked desperately to achieve her goal, eventually joining AST to fight spirits.
But fate played a cruel joke—her beloved, Shido Itsuka, stood on the side of the spirits, becoming her enemy.
Not only that, in order to gain the power to kill spirits, the dragon slayer eventually became the evil dragon herself. Origami accepted Mio Takamiya's power and transformed into what she hated the most.
After gaining her powers, she tried to use Kurumi's ability to go back in time to save her parents, only to discover in the end that it was her past self who had killed them...
However, the tragic backstory of Origami Tobiichi wasn't something the girl needed to concern herself with too much.
As a roleplayer, what mattered more to her was the spirit's strength and how difficult the role would be to play.
Origami was a formidable character, even before becoming a spirit, able to compete directly with spirits in combat.
Even when she had just become a spirit and hadn't yet mastered her powers, she could still fight evenly with Tohka Yatogami, a front-line combat.
Her base stats were the highest among the eleven spirit girls. Her Astral Dress was level AA, and her Angel was level AAA—clearly a battle-class spirit, with undisputed combat strength.
However, playing the role was also among the hardest.
Despite being the most tragic character, readers referred to her as "Master Origami," showing which attribute of hers was most infamous.
"First time playing a perverted girl," the girl said, rubbing her temples. "This might be even harder than that pervy old lady who loves to fanservice or the self-lusting sisters."
And that wasn't even the worst part.
The worst part was that she, as a transmigrator, was now in a world without Shido Itsuka. She didn't even know who she was supposed to act perverted towards.
"If I had an Identity Fabrication Voucher, the system would probably generate a new Shido for me…" she muttered with a headache. "But I've run out of vouchers. Playing the obsessed girl isn't going to be easy."
The Identity Fabrication Voucher allowed transmigrators to have a setting that matched their role in the current world.
For instance, after using it, Kotori Itsuka became the adopted daughter of the Rengoku family in the Demon Slayer world, and in Black Bullet, she became a famous pre-war manga artist.
If she could use such a voucher here, the system would likely create a character to help her better fit into the role of Origami Tobiichi.
As she was mulling this over, the system's light screen appeared in front of her eyes.

Side Quest 3: Hide your identity as a person from another world (the better the hiding, the better the reward)
The girl quickly scanned the system screen. Upon seeing the world she had been sent to, she froze.
No Game No Life?
Wasn't that a mind-game anime?
It had been a long time since she'd seen it, so she didn't remember much—only some key settings.
Like the Ten Pledges that prevented all warfare and conflict, ensuring all disputes were resolved through games.
That was what made this world as beautiful as a fairy tale.
Beautiful, yes—but peaceful? Not exactly.
Each race had its own problems and struggles. Before the Ten Pledges, they could solve these through bloody conflict and seize resources from others. But now, those problems still existed—they just had to be solved through games instead of war.
"System, are you out of your mind? Can you be more careful when selecting the world? What kind of mess have you dumped me into this time?" the girl couldn't help but twitch her lips. "Sending a battle-type spirit into a world of mental games… That's a mismatch if I've ever seen one."
Complaining aside, she looked back at the quest details.
And her expression grew even more unsettled.
Both main and side quests emphasized one thing.
Brains.
And that was definitely not her strong suit.
She considered herself to have decent intelligence—above average, at least—but she was still a graduate from an arts school.
Let alone the fact that this world was filled with beings of insane intellect and all kinds of crazy abilities. Competing against them mentally was asking to get humiliated.
Among the sixteen races, she figured she could probably outsmart the humans and the Dhampirs.
Wait, no.
If Sora and Shiro were already around at this point, the only ones she could definitely beat were the air-headed Dhampirs.
Though Origami IQ was indeed high—equivalent to 7.5 Tohkas—the girl wasn't the real Origami Tobiichi.
She had only inherited the role, the angel, and the Astral Dress—not her intelligence.
As someone with average, maybe slightly above-average smarts, this kind of world was far from ideal.
"Nope. I'm out."
She opened her spatial inventory and found the item she was looking for.
World Reselection Ticket.
This was a reward she got after completing the Black Bullet world. It allowed her to change her current world if she wasn't satisfied with it.
While there was no threat to her life in this world thanks to the Ten Pledges, if she couldn't complete her system quests, then no matter how safe it was, it was meaningless.
This world's quests were probably the hardest she had faced so far.
Using the World Reselection Ticket, the dimensional gate inside the settlement space appeared before her.
Without hesitation, she walked through it.
Soon, as the dizziness faded, she realized she had entered another world.
The air felt different again.
Her nose twitched—the fresh air had turned heavy and foul, making her frown.
She opened her eyes, and what she saw made her frown even deeper.
The fairy tale-like scenery had vanished.
In its place was a land of crimson.
The ground was lifeless—just black-red rocks and parched dirt as far as the eye could see.
The sky was not blue but shrouded in pitch-black clouds—like an apocalyptic scene.
"Tch…"
Particles fell from the sky, like magnified smog.
But when they touched her skin, they stung.
She quickly deployed a shield to block the black particles, preventing them from landing on her body.
"What the hell? Did I end up in DOOM?"
While muttering curses, she waited for the system to appear again.
With a new world came new quests.
Soon, the system screen reappeared before her.
[Personal Information Updated]
[Current Role: Origami Tobiichi]
[Current World: No Game No Life: Zero]
[World Intelligence Processing…]
[Main Quest Released]
Main Quest: Become the angel who ends the war (role method unrestricted)
[Side Quests Released]
Side Quest 1: The Mother of Spirits, Mio Takamiya, has been implanted into the Spirit Corridor as a divine essence. Awaken her (the deeper the awakening, the greater the reward)
Side Quest 2: Spread faith (the more believers, the greater the reward)
Side Quest 3: Expand territory (the larger the land, the greater the reward)
"Huh?"
When she saw the world she had landed in, the girl was dumbfounded.
Wasn't the World Reselection Ticket… supposed to be random?
Why did it feel more like the system was the one choosing?
Wait a minute—No Game No Life and No Game No Life: Zero are basically the same world, aren't they?!
"System, you piece of crap! You're really obsessed with this No Game No Life stuff, huh?!" she glared at the system screen. "Sure, this one isn't a mind-game world anymore, but the quests are even harder now, dammit!"
She couldn't help but curse out loud.
But the system, as always, remained silent unless it was issuing quests.
After venting for a while and still getting no response, she finally calmed down.
"Well… no choice now but to take things one step at a time."
She let out a deep sigh, feeling like her entire body hurt—stomach, teeth, everything.
Because the combat level in this world was just too damn high.
In No Game No Life, the Ten Pledges ensured no one could kill each other, so she had no fear of dying.
But in No Game No Life: Zero, the Ten Pledges hadn't been enacted yet—this was the age of the Great War.
The gods were fighting to obtain the Suniaster, the essence of the world, to become the One True God. They created their own races, waged endless wars…
The gods could destroy the world with ease, and even their creations had insane power, fighting bloody battles and dragging the world to the brink of destruction.
Even with her spirit powers, she wouldn't be considered a high-tier fighter here.
Among the sixteen races—well, fifteen at this point—spirits ranked between mid and high tier. Stronger than Dwarfs and elves, but weaker than the Flugel.
Completing the main quest—becoming the angel that ends the war—was nothing short of a fantasy.
She looked at the side quests with deep frustration.
"Oh? Mio Takamiya has been implanted into the Spirit Corridor as divine essence?"
Her brow raised as she muttered, "If that's the case, the difficulty of the main quest might actually go down a bit…"
The gods in this world were born from the Spirit Corridor—it essentially meant they held part of the world's laws.
And according to her original world's lore, Mio Takamiya was the world's law.
At the end of Date A Live, she even became the world's will itself.
Even though Date A Live and No Game No Life operated on different power levels, if Mio had been placed here as divine essence, she was definitely a god-tier existence.
Just how powerful… she didn't know.
"Looks like the main quest will have to revolve around Mom Mio."
With that, the girl casually flew off in a random direction.
"But before I start the missions… let me scout the area first."
