Collapse? No, this is just everyday life.

Her training program can be described as a great success.

"Of course, there's no need to hide this from your closest family, right?"

"You've gotten quite the talker lately."

After making a joke, Cocolia got down to business: "Do you have any plans for where Gensokyo Corporation will relocate after you graduate from university? The current location will soon be too small for your company's size."

Although the entire building belongs to Anti-Entropy, apart from the three floors rented to Gensokyo Company, the rest of the building is occupied by various companies under Anti-Entropy. They can't just take over their own people's property, can they?

Moreover, this place is not actually a very good location for Gensokyo Company. Apart from being close to St. Freya, which makes it convenient for them to commute to get off work, it does not have many geographical advantages. Its relatively backward economy has actually been hindering the development of Gensokyo.

"I haven't really thought about that yet. How about we move to North America and become neighbors with the Anti-Entropy headquarters? That way, we can see each other more often, right?"

Cocolia's question made Nangong Yu think for a moment, and he slowly said while rubbing Seele's little belly.

"While this suggestion is very appealing, I have another option that I'd like to hear about."

"Hmm, tell me about it?"

With her back slightly straightened, Xi'er sat obediently on his lap, making a serious little expression, even though her little hands behind her back were still tugging at her brother's clothes.

"Mu Dalu, have you considered this?"

"Mu Continent?"

The Mu Continent, located in the center of the Pacific Ocean, is home to the world's most advanced technology companies, top universities, and leading research institutes. It can be said to be the center of human civilization. Anti-Entropy, Divine City Technology, and Destiny have all been developing on the Mu Continent for many years, and they still stand in a triangular balance of power.

"Yes, that's the holy land of the scientific community, Mu Continent."

"Huh? Go there? But we're not exactly a tech company."

It seems like there's not much competition for a game company going there.

"Don't be impatient yet."

Cocolia pressed down on her palm and revealed a secret that made Nangong Yu frown.

"The discussion among anti-entropy, destiny, divine city, and political figures from all walks of life has concluded that the center of development for virtual reality technology has been confirmed to be the Mu Continent."

"why?"

"Because whether it's in the Americas, Asia, or Europe, the other two would object. In the end, only the Mu Continent can meet everyone's interests."

These three companies certainly all want to establish the center of virtual technology in their own country, but such things are naturally impossible to achieve. Therefore, Mu Continent, where the three major technology companies in the Pacific are still competing, has become the best choice for everyone.

This is easy to understand, and Nangong Yu nodded knowingly.

Seeing that the child understood, Cocolia continued, "At that time, any industry related to virtual technology will receive the green light and maximum resource support in Mu Continent, and Gensokyo will also be in a period of rapid development, at which time it can reap the greatest benefits."

With Pokémon's success, Gensokyo naturally gets a share of the market share in games supported by Anti-Entropy Virtual Container.

She believed in her child's abilities; with excellent games and her management, riding the wave of this changing era, she could quickly cultivate Gensokyo into a large company comparable to Anti-Entropy Entertainment.

Hmph, Walter, let's see how you'll fight me in the future!

The position of leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance belongs to me, Cocolia!!

To be honest, Nangong Yu was indeed tempted when he heard this, but he still shook his head and said, "It does seem very good, but this is not my own company after all. I need to go back and discuss it with everyone."

His main plan was to do some ideological work with the girls to see if they were willing to go to Mu Continent with him.

At this moment, Cocolia seemed to remember something and said, "Oh, right, I forgot to tell you, on the Mu Continent, it seems that due to special customs, there is no law on monogamy..."

"I feel it's absolutely necessary to venture out onto the Mu Continent!!!"

At this moment, Nangong Yu's gaze was unwavering!

He firmly believed that young people should strive and endure hardship in new environments!

Knowing what interests you, this is still a simple matter.

Smiling at Nangong Yu, Cocolia continued, "By the way, after deciding on the location as Mu Continent, we also decided to hold the first Virtual Reality Technology Exhibition. The exhibition will cover everything, and games will be one of the most important parts."

"At the first exhibition, each company's virtual pods will make their debut to the world. The games that visitors experience should attract the most attention. So, are you confident?"

“Of course!!” Nangong Yu nodded seriously.

"Well, I believe you."

Cocolia smiled slightly, picked up the teacup on the table, and took a sip of tea.

Having finished discussing the important matters, she suddenly remembered a somewhat unrelated question and immediately looked at Nangong Yu, asking, "By the way, Xiaoyu, what is your relationship with the daughter of the Thunder Dragon Horse?"

"Raiden Ryoma... Oh, you mean Mei? Why are you asking that?"

When the topic of Raiden Ryoma came up, Nangong Yu paused for a moment, but quickly thought of Mei and asked a question with some confusion.

"What, can't you even care about the child's emotional state?"

Her expression turned somewhat troubled, and Nangong Yu slowly said, "It's not that, it's just that everyone has a right to privacy..."

"Seele, Bronya, Alicia, Kaguya, Kiana, Sirin, Grimm..." (9)

"Ahem, Mei and I are just pretty good friends!"

Seeing that his secrets had been exposed, Nangong Yu quickly said...

No, Celine just got married yesterday, how do you know now? 8.

His gaze drifted downwards to someone in the know, and he immediately caught sight of Seele's shifty eyes. 4

Well, so it was you, you little traitor.

He pinched Xi'er's bottom in exasperation, instantly making the little girl tense up. She leaned against him, her face flushed, too afraid to move. (9)

After the minor punishment, Nangong Yu picked up Xier's cup and took a sip to moisten his slightly dry throat.

"Is it good? How close are you? Have you slept in the same bed?" (5)

"puff!!!"

Nangong Yu spat out the tea he had just drunk, and Xi'er, who was half covered in it, looked at him with a pained expression.

"Sorry sorry!"

He quickly wiped Seele's face, then looked at Cocolia with a somewhat twisted expression: "How can you ask such a question?!"

"Did you go or not?"

"...No, we're really just friends."

"Really? That puts my mind at ease."

Cocolia nodded slightly.

"Did something happen?"

"It's nothing. I just had some business dealings with Raiden Ryoma recently and suddenly thought of this. It has nothing to do with you guys."

"Oh."

Busy touching Xi'er... oh no, I mean wiping Xi'er's body, Nangong Yu didn't pay much attention and just skipped over the topic.

Night fell quickly, and Seele and Bronya naturally chose to sleep with Bronya's mother, whom they hadn't seen in a long time. Ellie wanted to stay and keep Nangong Yu company, but she was quickly dragged away by Bronya. She was a little afraid that Ellie would take Yu to her old room and have some fun, so it was better to be on guard.

Every year it's the same scene: lying alone in bed. Nangong Yu has gotten used to it.

However, having just taken a nap in the afternoon, he is now having trouble falling asleep.

He opened his phone and sent messages to both Sirin and Kiana, but received no response. Remembering that the two places were in different time zones, he lay down on the bed out of boredom.

It should be daytime where Gretsch is, but it feels strange to talk to Gretsch alone.

Just as he was getting bored and thinking of getting up to write some game design proposals, there was a sudden knock on the door.

It's so late, who is it?

With that thought in mind, Nangong Yu said, "Please come in."

He trusted the orphanage's security, so anyone who could knock on his door couldn't possibly be an outsider.

"excuse me."

With a creak, the wooden door was pushed open, and Aponia walked in slowly, carrying a lantern.

"As expected, he didn't rest again."

Looking at Nangong Yu sitting on the bed, Aponia said gently.

"I slept too much this afternoon and can't fall asleep now. But Aponia, what brings you here so late?"

Aponia closed the door behind her and placed the lantern on the table.

"I just checked to see if the children were sleeping well, and now only your room light is still on."

"I'm not a kid anymore."

He said something amusingly, and then Nangong Yu saw Aponia slowly walk towards him, gather her skirts, and sit down next to him.

An intoxicating fragrance wafted over, carrying a scent reminiscent of ripe peaches that he rarely experienced.

The enormous pair of objects trembled with her movement, and the swaying motion attracted his attention.

It's not his fault; according to the law of universal gravitation, objects with higher mass have a stronger attraction!

"You should get some rest. Rosalia and Lilia have been looking forward to playing with you for a long time. If you're not energetic tomorrow, those two kids will be very sad."

As his attention was drawn to the enormous pair of objects, he suddenly noticed that Aponia seemed to be sitting even closer, shoulder to shoulder, and he could feel a faint warmth through their clothes.

The alluring fragrance grew stronger, and he looked up to meet Aponia's eyes.

The deep blue pupils held a hint of darkness. Although he still had that calm and gentle demeanor, Nangong Yu felt something was off. His gaze was unconsciously drawn to those eyes, as if they were filled with a bewitching power.

"Please, get some rest."

A gentle voice softly sounded in her ear, and Nangong Yu felt a little dazed. Then, she subconsciously wanted to lie down obediently.

But when he touched the bed with his palm, the sensation at his fingertips brought him back to his senses instantly. He tensed up and stepped back slightly, looking at Aponia with some panic.

What just happened to me?

There was some surprise and uncertainty in his eyes, but a trace of sadness appeared in the eyes of Aponia on the other side.

"Excuse me, did I do something that you dislike?"

"..."

Nangong Yu opened her mouth, but was speechless.
