c25: Su Lie's Reaction, Leisurely Group Members
Karl sent a red envelope.
He noticed that Su Lie's name was not in the collection record.
It was likely because of the matter involving Li Xin.
The other party felt some resentment.
Although Karl let Li Xin stay in the Kings World, he did not interfere with his actions.
The direction Li Xin left in was toward the Great Wall Guard Army.
But that didn't necessarily mean Li Xin would return to the Great Wall Guard Army.
Perhaps he wanted to guard the Great Wall in silence, like a lone vigilante who walks his own path much like Batman operating outside the formal structure of the Justice League.
What he wanted to do...was his own business.
It had nothing to do with Karl.
Furthermore,
Even if Li Xin wanted to return to the Great Wall Guard Army,
in such a short time, he might not have arrived yet.
After all,
The Thousand Caves City where Karl summoned Li Xin,
was still quite a distance from the location of the Great Wall Guard Army.
Even for a trained warrior, crossing such terrain wasn't instantaneous unless one possessed extreme mobility like The Flash or relied on teleportation technology comparable to Nightcrawler.
After chatting for a while, Su Lie excused himself and left, citing business.

What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: General Su Lie seems very busy; he didn't even collect the red envelope.
Tenblade King: Yeah, he really didn't.
Tenblade King: It's probably because of Guan City.
Tenblade King: Didn't we say before that Guan City was being invaded by Demonic Seeds?
Tenblade King: Now that Karl has dealt with the Demonic Seeds,
Tenblade King: as the person in charge of Guan City, General Su Lie naturally has to handle the aftermath.
Tenblade King: Just like how Nick Fury has to deal with the aftermath of large-scale crises even after the Avengers resolve the main threat.
Senju Princess: That makes sense; it really feels that way.
Senju Princess: After all, status doesn't just mean glory and privilege.
Senju Princess: It also comes with responsibility—much like Superman bearing the expectations of Earth while protecting it.
The group members also noticed Su Lie hadn't collected the red envelope.
However, they didn't think much of it in other ways.
They simply thought,
Su Lie was busy with official duties and short on time.
But how much time would it take to collect a red envelope?
A second?
If you're fast, maybe not even that.
He has time to talk, but no time to collect a red envelope?
They didn't think too deeply about it.
After all,
the other group members naturally wouldn't know what happened between Karl and the Kings World.
Karl didn't say much.
He didn't care about Su Lie's behavior either.
It was likely because of the Li Xin matter.
But he had no need to explain.
Karl did what he wanted to do, much like Doctor Strange making decisions based on outcomes only he fully understood.
He didn't need to explain anything to anyone...
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: Wow!
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: Tsunade, what you said makes so much sense, and you sound so empathetic.
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: Oh, right, right! Your group nickname is Senju Princess.
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: There is only one truth!
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: Tsunade, you must be a princess of a kingdom, right?
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: Thinking about it that way, I can understand why you're so empathetic.
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: I'm right, aren't I? @Senju Princess @God of the Human Realm
Tenblade King: Wow!
Tenblade King: Toka-sister, what you said makes so much sense.
Tenblade King: That's just amazing!
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: Hahahaha, exactly, exactly!
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: Keep working hard, little Kaisha.
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: One day,
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: you will be as exceptionally intelligent as I am.
Tenblade King: Okay, Toka-sister!
Tsubame Oyashiro, as if she had discovered some major secret, suddenly became excited.
And Kaisha felt that, what Tsubame Oyashiro said made a lot of sense.
The two of them there,
it was like they were performing a comedy routine—something you might even expect from the more lighthearted exchanges between heroes like Spider-Man and other young members of the Young Avengers.
One dared to speak, and the other not only believed it,
but even dared to play along.
Karl saw the messages in the Chat Group.
He couldn't help but chuckle.
Tsubame Oyashiro was quite imaginative; she had a good brain.
Karl naturally knew, Tsunade wasn't actually a princess of some country,
but a member of the Senju Clan of the Forest.
However, her grandfather was the leader of the Senju Clan,
the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama.
As his precious granddaughter,
Tsunade's status was even superior to that of a princess from another country.
After all, Senju Hashirama was the reincarnation of the son of the Six Paths Sage, and held the title of God of Shinobi.
If he wanted to,
his overwhelming power and vitality were not unlike the top-tier beings in other universes figures such as Thor or even Darkseid in terms of battlefield dominance.
Let alone a single country,
he could potentially destroy the entire Naruto World.
Therefore, although Tsunade wasn't a kingdom princess, her status....was not something an ordinary princess could compare to.
So,
what Tsubame Oyashiro said wasn't entirely wrong?
After all, being the granddaughter of Senju Hashirama the First Hokage whose power and influence shaped an entire shinobi era placed her in a position similar to individuals born into overwhelming legacy and power in other worlds, much like Wonder Woman as the daughter of Zeus, or Black Panther as the king of Wakanda, whose authority far exceeded that of ordinary royalty.
What Karl found even stranger was,
the behavior of Tsubame Oyashiro and Kaisha.
One was constantly in the group, incredibly active.
The other was like a cute little girl.
This clearly didn't match the two in Karl's memory.
Kaisha was one thing;
she was very young right now,
a teenage girl.
She wasn't yet the one from the future, the tens of thousands of years old, majestic and powerful Angel King, whose eventual evolution would resemble the transformation of beings who grow into cosmic-level entities, similar to how Captain Marvel rose from a human origin into a powerhouse capable of traversing space and battling interstellar threats.
But... Tsubame Oyashiro?
Hasn't she already become a restaurant chef by now?
It's almost exactly the time of that chuunibyou anime.
How has her personality changed so much too?
Karl, who frequently lurked,
although he hadn't asked directly,
had already understood the ages of the group members clearly.
After thinking for a bit, Karl couldn't help but speak up.

God of the Human Realm: Speaking of which, are you all really this free?
God of the Human Realm: No work, studying, or fighting?
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: I work in a restaurant; I used to be super busy.
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: But now that I have the Chat Group, I don't have to work so hard anymore.
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: After all, one point can be exchanged for over ten thousand yen!
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: I can eat just by signing in casually. Why work?
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: Now I only go to work when I occasionally feel like it.
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: Anyway, the manager's daughter really likes the cakes I make, and I have a good relationship with the manager.
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: Since I don't have to work often, of course I'm very free!
Actually, what Tsubame Oyashiro didn't say was,
her original dream wasn't to be a chef.
However,
because her father passed away,
she had to give up on her studies after high school graduation and switch to learning culinary arts.
Now that she had no financial pressure, she naturally didn't want to work much.
Her situation was not unlike certain ordinary individuals who, after gaining access to extraordinary resources, no longer needed to struggle daily—similar in contrast to grounded heroes like Peter Parker, who must still juggle responsibility and livelihood despite his powers.
Senju Princess: I've temporarily finished my mission here and am waiting for orders.
Tenblade King: I don't have anything to do either.
God of the Human Realm: Alright... it seems these people really are quite free.
Well,
Karl wasn't in a position to talk about others either.
He had even sold his own company because he didn't want to manage it and needed funds.
That kind of decisiveness abandoning worldly attachments for a greater path was reminiscent of figures who prioritize larger goals over personal assets, much like Tony Stark stepping away from corporate control at times to focus on global threats, or Bruce Wayne diverting his vast wealth into his vigilante mission as Batman.
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: Tsunade, you haven't responded to me yet. Was my analysis just now correct? @Senju Princess
Tenblade King: I'm also very curious.
Senju Princess: Uh... not quite.
Senju Princess: I don't know why my nickname is this either.
Senju Princess: Senju is... Tsunade explained the situation of the Senju Clan a bit.
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: Wow! So that's how it is!
What to do if my sister is a chuunibyou: Isn't this even more impressive than being a princess?
Tenblade King: Yeah, yeah!
Senju Princess: Not really...
After chatting in the group for a while, Karl logged out of the Chat Group.
Because he found,
Skye had woken up.
