Sleeping Beauty Connections
I'm not very familiar with Sleeping Beauty, but I know Ais is supposed to be connected to that Fairy Tale, like how Lili is connected to Cinderella. If anyone has a connection I missed, I'd appreciate it if you could share.
I looked at the wikipedia page for Sleeping Beauty to get a better picture. Hopefully this is also helpful for others that don't know much about the relevant stuff, either.

“…”
And that was to fully affirm the god’s (final boss’s) suspicion.
But at the same time, skillfully use the sword of truth.
“I’ll come clean, then. I’ve been studying how to deal with [Little Rookie]… Bell Cranel, the one Freya noticed.”
“...Why?”
“Oh come on, you really need to ask? He’s always been the source of my headaches—that world’s fastest rabbit.”
Loki continued to gaze at him with cold eyes. Finn, with an expression that said "that’s all there is to it," gave a faint shrug.
There’s a basic principle when dealing with gods in the lower world:
The gods can see through the lies of mortals.
This is a rule that cannot be overturned, no matter how high a Familia member’s level rises.
However, there is a s…
Miniature Garden Substory Preview MTL
Just pushed the free preview into Google Translate so expect bad quality. Very rough to read, so I may edit it later.
Part 1
Original
Let's say there is a "Miniature Garden" that has been enchanted.
The enchanted "Inhabitants of the Miniature Garden" are at the mercy of the witch.
Between unawareness and misunderstanding, they behave as she wishes. It's exactly role-playing.
Following the new order established by the witch, they create a different world for the witch's love to be fulfilled.
If there is anyone who has not been enchanted, it is definitely the protagonist.
It could be the few gods among the transcendents, the fairies who returned to the "Miniature Garden" after being enchanted, or the white rabbit who repels the charm with a foolish …
DM20 SS - A Scene Between a Certain Warrior and a Knight
"Ottar."
There are more guests here today than there are usually.
"What is this for?"
That's what Ottar thought when the "Knight of Knights" appeared some time after the "Braver" had left.
The location is deep inside the "Upper Level" of the Dungeon. The walls on all four sides are broken, no monsters have spawned, and nor are there other adventurers nearby.
In a hall where no one can approach, there is a duel to the death with an enemy that is not here - with the phantom of a "hero" sleeping in one's memory.
He was in the middle of the room solemnly swinging his great sword.
Leon Vardenburg, who is his equal and also his long-time friend, comes to visit him.
"It's been a while. I'm glad to see you are looking healthy."
Completely discouraged, Otta…

The birth of a fairy monster brought forth by the storm, and the instant when the "Hero's Spear" was unleashed to stop it.
"Fels!!"
"—!! Reed, initiate 'Bullfight' operation!! Start 'Bullfight' operation!! Quickly establish the expedition team's retreat 'escape route,' now!!"
Amid the shouts of Loki and Ouranos echoing in the underground altar, Fels pulled himself together from his shaken state of mind and shouted into the Eye Crystal he held in one hand. Among the various battle plans developed with the Xenos, he issued the "Bullfight" operation, designed for the worst-case scenario.
As the black-robed mage, desperate and devoid of composure, gave commands, Loki glanced at Ouranos. The ancient god r…

The secrets to making the White Rabbit rest on your lap!
First, knock him unconscious.
Then, gently lift his head.
Finally, slowly and gently place him on your thighs.
The end.
Aiz, who proclaimed with absolute confidence that those were the steps, was carrying them out on top of the city walls.
Inside her mind, the little Aiz in the form of a child looked up at the sky in despair.
"Animal abuse!"
"No to violence!"
"Do you understand what 'secret' means?"!
With protest signs in hand, the little Aiz of her imagination began to complain loudly.
However, the moment Aiz began to give a "sleeping pillow" to the White Rabbit, that is, to the young Be…
