I will become the ice jellyfish queen with the Chat Group

[The Jellyfish of Light and Dark]: Okay, let me make this clear—this is real. Every single one of us is from a different world. If you don't believe me, check your mail and claim your starter package. Do it fast—the mission starts in half an hour.

[Normal Student of the Academy]: …This is real.

[The Eminence in Shadow]: Yes, it is real.

[The Overpowered Shield Hero]: Hello, everyone… Did I miss something important?

[Moon General]: Can you all prepare for the war mission? It begins in 15 minutes.

[Normal Student of the Academy]: …Did he just say war?

[The Jellyfish of Light and Dark]: Yes, he did. So you'd better get ready.

[The Eminence in Shadow]: I need to go and test my new powers.

[Cute Sun Queen]: Papa is calling me for dinner. Gotta go!

[The Overpowered Shield Hero]: I'll start preparing for the battle.

[Normal Student of the Academy]: …So, does anyone have a spare weapon?

[The Jellyfish of Light and Dark]: Here, take all of my extra guns and ammunition.

[The Jellyfish of Light and Dark has sent guns and ammunition to [Normal Student of the Academy].]

[The Jellyfish of Light and Dark] is now offline.

[Grey's POV]

I need to check the Crow and the Living Armor's levels before heading straight into a war.

Looking at the two black eggs in my front yard, I watch as they begin to crack open.

Name: Michael

Species: Draconian Fire Living Armor

Age: 1 day

EXP: 0/60,000

Level: 10

HP: 6,000/6,000

Mana: 3,500/3,500

Red tattoos start appearing across Michael's body.

Name: Ammar

Species: Red-Eyed Crow Prince

Age: 1 day

EXP: 0/40,000

Level: 10

HP: 8,000/5,000

Mana: 7,500/5,500

His feathers take on a deeper amethyst hue, and a crown of feathers begins growing on his head.

[Grey]: Both of you will have to come with me to war.

[Somewhere Else]

[???]: Alpha, I'm heading out on a mission with some old friends.

[Alpha]: Lord Shadow, can you take me with you—

The man named Shadow interrupts the woman named Alpha.

[Shadow]: And how exactly would you help me? You'd only be a burden to us.

Without another word, he leaves the room, while Alpha remains, silently watching his retreating figure.

[Alpha]: Beta, call the rest of the Shades. We need to have a meeting about this.

[Beta]: Should we send someone to follow Lord Shadow?

[Alpha]: There's no need. Anyone Lord Shadow calls a friend is not someone we can afford to oppose.

[Some Other Place]

[???]: Ames, dinner is ready!

[Ames]: Papa, I can use magic now!

The young girl named Ames excitedly summons a massive fireball.

[???]: Finally! My daughter will rule the world, just like her old man!

[???]: Eric, stop that necromancer nonsense. You promised to leave all that behind after marriage.

[Eric]: Asley, look at her! My little moth is going to rule the world, just like me! Look at that fireball—it's already bigger than the ones we could summon at her age! I was still counting bones on my first rat skeletons back then!

[Asley]: …Why did I marry you again?

[Eric]: Because I vowed to spread my love for you across the entire world.

[Asley]: The giant bone titans with my name carved into them were sweet… but did you really have to anger three gods for that?

[Eric]: For you, my love? I'd anger them all.

[Asley]: Eric, stop that! You're making me blush.

[Another Part of the House]

[???]: Mom, Dad, have you seen my new bone giant? I think I lost it near the Dark Soul River.

[Eric]: …Why were you near the Soul River? Didn't I warn you to stay away from it? You were drinking with your friends again, weren't you?

[Asley]: Eric, leave the boy alone. At least his friends are better than the ones you had.

[Eric]: What's wrong with my friends? The Death Lords, Black Dragons, and the Bishops of the Plague Gods are fine company!

[Asley]: Yes, Eric. That is exactly the problem.

[Eric]: Oh, really? Don't make me bring up your so-called hero friends. The Lightbringer, the Lady of the Sea, and that arrogant bastard Jordan—the Steel Wall.

[Ames]: I have friends too!

The room falls silent. The scent of death and fire fills the air, and one by one, ghosts of all kinds materialize, awaiting their master's command to hunt down her enemies.

[Eric]: …Can you tell us their names, sweetheart?

[Ames]: Yes, Papa!

[Somewhere Else—Let's Get Out of Here Before We Get Hurt]

[???]: Hey, Ali—

[Ali]: Hello, Jack. Why are you here today?

[Jack]: Look at this.

Jack presses a button on his suit, and high-tech armor swiftly assembles around him.

/Picture/

[Jack]: Isn't this cool?

[Ali]: Is it strong enough to kill a Chinese cultivator?

[Jack]: Yes. I tested it on one before coming here.

[Back to Grey]

[Grey]: Five minutes left until the mission begins.

[Ammar]: Here is your tea, madam.

[Grey]: Thanks. Ammar, is Michael still trying to date one of my clothes?

[Ammar]: No, madam. He stopped after one of them told him he was too small.

[Grey]: …What does that mean?

[Ammar]: Stay pure, madam. Do you understand the meaning of 'wife'?

[Grey]: A wife is a woman who sleeps next to her husband.

[Ammar]: …I'll make sure Michael doesn't try to date the refrigerator or the icebox.

Ammar leaves, and strange noises come from the kitchen, but Grey is too busy to pay attention.

[Mission Start]

[System]: Mission will start in... 3...2...1...

As the countdown reaches zero, Grey and her pets are teleported.

[A Burning City]

[Grey]: Why is a burning city always the first thing I see in every mission...?

[Grey]: Hey, Akako.

[Akako]: Hey, Grey—and Maple. You guys must be the new members.

[Ames]: Hello! My name is Ames, and my username is [Cute Sun Queen].

[Jake]: I'm Jake, and my username is [Normal Student of the Academy].

[Cid]: My name is Cid Kagenou, and my username is [The Eminence in Shadow]. Can someone explain the mission objective? And why are we in a burning city?

[Grey]: Our goal is to defeat a man named Loki.

[Akako]: That should be easy.

The moment Akako speaks, a massive purple giant descends from a portal in the sky.

[Mission Update]

[System]: Mission change—defeat [Thanos clone].
