The girl, Alice, is terribly shy and runs away when Shinobu tries to introduce herself.

Fairy Tail

Mondaijitachi ga Isekai Kara Kura Sou Desu Yo (Problem Children are Coming from Another World Aren’t They?)

Welcome to the world of Little Garden. A place full of magical beasts, mythical figures, and powerful inhabitants. Fame and fortune await the bold, for anything can be had if you are willing to gamble your power, or even your freedom, for it.

Our second protagonist finds her letter on the table in her finely decorated bedroom. According to the maid noone has been in her room, and even under hypnosis her story does not change. Finally our third protagonist has her letter delivered by a cat. All three letters say the same thing; “This letter is for those of you with many troubles and extraordinary powers. If you wish to see how far that power of yours will take you, cast aside your family, your friends, your possessions, and come to our ‘Little Garden'”.

As Shiro tries to assess their situation a new monster takes him by surprise … It was barely a day earlier that Shiro first found himself literally inside the MMO Elder Tale. By accident he brought up the game’s menu system, allowing him to check his friends list to see who else might be trapped with him. One of them was online, Naotsugu.
