Collapse? No, this is just everyday life.

Hearing their conversation, Gretchen naturally followed their instructions.

Upon seeing the open suitcase, Gretchen suddenly remembered something, quickly walked over, bent down, and pulled a card out of the suitcase.

Then, she jogged over to the knight and handed him the card.

"Mr. Knight".

"Hmm? What's wrong, Greta?"

"This, this is what Mom asked me to bring to you."

"Give me?"

Nangong Yu took it with a puzzled look and looked down at it.

"This is... a bank card?"

A Destiny Bank card that can be used worldwide, with a note attached to it.

'This is Gretchen's accommodation and food expenses.'

A password was also attached below.

"Okay, then I'll accept it."

Smiling, Nangong Yu put the bank card in his pocket and bent down to pat Gretchen's head.

This card is something we absolutely have to accept; otherwise, Gretchen's family probably won't feel at ease.

At that moment, Greta took out her phone and asked him, "Mom also said that it would be okay for Greta to make a video call to her right now."

"Of course that's no problem."

"Ok!"

After saying that, Greta happily dialed the phone.

The call was answered in just a few seconds; it seems they were also waiting for Gretchen to call back.

Soon, a gentle-looking blue-haired woman appeared on the screen. She looked very similar to Gretchen, but was much more mature.

Seeing her, Gretchen felt as if she had found her pillar of support, and a relaxed smile appeared on her face that she had never shown to Rain and Ellie: "Mom~"

"Gresh, it looks like you've arrived?"

"Yes, it was Mr. Knight who picked me up!"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Yu pulled Ai Li along and walked behind Gretchen, standing within the range of the camera's view.

"Mr. Knight? That's quite a unique way to address you."

Nangong Yu originally wanted to say hello, but for a moment she didn't know whether to call her aunt or sister.

She's Cocolia's good friend, so logically he should call her "Auntie." But she looks quite young, so calling her "Auntie" would be too disrespectful, and she probably wouldn't be in a good mood.

In the end, all he could say was a dry, "Hello."

Seemingly sensing Nangong Yu's dilemma, Blanca said with a smile, "Don't worry about how you address me. Even if you call me 'Auntie,' I won't be angry, really."

Don't worry about it? But your tone clearly shows you do!

While inwardly complaining, Nangong Yu wore a smile on her face.

After laughing for a while, Blanca suddenly became serious and said, "I'll be leaving Gretchen in your care for the next while."

"Don't worry, I'll definitely make sure Grey is well-fed and healthy~"

Taking the bank card out of her pocket, Nangong Yu raised her hand, waved it twice, and responded with a smile.

"Huh?! Getting fat is no good, I don't want to get fat."

Upon hearing this, Gretchen panicked immediately and quickly hugged herself.

"Then work out more; the more you exercise, the less likely you are to gain weight."

He patted Gretchen's little head, and she nodded seriously.

"I see!"

"Seeing that you all get along so well puts my mind at ease. Please don't hesitate to ask me for help if you need anything in the future."

This scene brought Blanca a slight sense of relief. Seeing her daughter getting along so harmoniously with her new friend, the weight on her heart was lifted.

"Yes, if there's a chance, I'll definitely trouble you."

Without talking for long, Nangong Yu and Aili exchanged a glance, then walked out of the bedroom hand in hand, leaving the rest of the time to Gretchen.

"I'll use the money in this card to buy Gretchen clothes on Saturday."

He took the card out and put it in Ellie's hand.

"I thought you didn't know how to use it."

"It's not that I care about the money. It'll be fine once we get to know each other better. But if we don't use it now, the other side will have some concerns."

Blanca already owed Cocolia a favor, and if she didn't use her money, it would only make her feel even more guilty as a friend.

"I didn't realize you were so thoughtful."

Alice tapped Yu's cheek with her finger and said with a smile.

"I've just seen it a lot."

"Okay, okay~"

Seeing his slightly smug expression after being praised, Ellie found it amusing and hugged him. Glancing at the time, she tugged at his arm: "Are you going to the company today?"

"There are still two hours until it's time to get off work, there's no need to go over there again."

"So, how about a nice date?"

"Of course~"

......

After Seele and the others returned, everyone held a welcome party for little Gretchen, and Eden was also invited to attend.

Looking at Eden so close at hand, Gretchen was momentarily stunned.

Then, she suddenly realized that the knight looked somewhat familiar.

When Gretchen came to her senses and realized that she had attended what was essentially a high-level gathering of Gensokyo Corporation, she was stunned.

After the banquet, life returned to normal.

As for the incident where Nangong Yu went to Theresa to solve Gretchen's housing problem, he accidentally encountered her posing in a magical girl outfit at home, and was then knocked unconscious and sent to the infirmary, there's no need to elaborate on that.

If it were about drawing comics, he could teach, but compared to that, the more skilled Eromanga teacher would be more suitable for the teaching position.

Moreover, being a woman herself makes teaching easier.

Coincidentally, Sagiri was also a recluse at home. Every day after Mrs. Izumi's teaching session ended, the two girls, who had become friends, would chat through the screen.

However, Nangong Yu always felt that something was off about their conversations.

He suddenly became worried that Gretchen might be led astray.

As time passed, the Apex project proceeded smoothly at Gensokyo Corporation.

During this time, they also attended the opening ceremony of St. Freya, and Nangong Yu was asked by Theresa to speak as a student representative.

His appearance naturally caused a stir, making people realize once again that the creator of Pokémon is still so young.

Time quickly came to the end of the year, in the recording studio.

Chapter 155 Kiana: You're lusting after my body?

After six months of study, coupled with her already solid foundation, Kiana was finally able to start voicing some characters.

The development of Apex Legends is nearing completion. One of its abilities is to release a drone to heal the entire team, and its ultimate ability is to summon a drop pod. The Legendary title called Lifeline was specifically reserved for Kiana.

Considering personality factors, an optimistic and cheerful voice would be the most suitable and simplest choice for Kiana.

When it comes to games, Nangong Yu naturally wouldn't go through the same political maneuvering as in his previous life. Would it really kill him to be a good-looking person? They finally got a decent-looking character like Katrilis, but she turns out to be a transgender person. It's really ridiculous.

While it's impossible to make everyone here handsome men and beautiful women, everyone has their own unique characteristics, and it's impossible to label these legends with any perfectly 'correct' tags.

As for the potential online criticism?

Whatever, those who are criticizing are precisely the ones who don't play games. Why should they care about them?

"Lifeline is your powerful support!"

Hearing Kiana repeat the same words over twenty times in his headphones, Nangong Yu frowned, looked at Kiana behind the soundproof glass, and said into the microphone near his mouth, "I've told you, Kiana, you need to say that with confidence. Confidence, understand? Confidence isn't stupidity!!"

"I, I understand. Wait a minute, let me get myself together."

Kiana lowered her head, looking somewhat dejected after being scolded again, but she quickly rallied, closed her eyes, and began to take deep breaths.

Seeing this, Nangong Yu nodded with some satisfaction, separated by a whole pane of glass.

At first, he thought Kiana would throw a tantrum under his strict demands, but who knew she would be so resilient. She was scolded by him all day and her eyes didn't even turn red. After each mistake, the phrase she said most often was "I know," and she would always improve the second time. It was truly a pleasant surprise.

She possesses both talent and resilience; it seems everyone has underestimated her.

A minute later, Kiana gestured to Nangong Yu, then took a deep breath, mustered her strength, and said confidently with a smile, "Get up quickly, Lifeline is your powerful support!"

clap clap clap!

Nangong Yu clapped her hands, leaned closer to the microphone, and said with a smile, "Very good, very good, just like the feeling from before."

Hearing this, Kiana immediately breathed a sigh of relief, slumped down, and muttered, "This take is finally done. Voice acting is so tiring."

"Keep going, there are only two left today."

"Good~"

Hearing the weak voice in the earphone, Nangong Yu raised an eyebrow and tempted, "Give it your all and try to finish in twenty minutes. When we get back, I'll have Xier make you a cake."

Then, he saw Kiana straighten up instantly, close her eyes, put her fist to her mouth and cough twice: "Ahem, well, actually, it doesn't matter whether it's cake or not, I just like voice acting."

"You boy."
