"Well, Argo, why all the talk? How about you help me prepare the ingredients? I'll go get the seasonings. Heh heh, not to brag, but I recently prepared a new sauce using over thirty ingredients, and I've named it Dream Sauce!"

"Ugh, what a tacky name! Asuna, your naming skills are terrible!"

"Damn it, Argo, how dare you underestimate my literary skills!"

Do they even exist?

The two stood back to back, one handling the seasonings and the other the ingredients, seemingly in perfect harmony. However, Argo's knife didn't just lightly touch the ingredients as it would normally; instead, it instinctively sliced ​​them into chunks, just as it would in reality.

Well, this kind of operation is allowed. After all, Sword Art Online is not an ordinary game. It's just that most people are used to the system's assistance and wouldn't do something that wastes so much time.

In essence, they are all the same; there is no difference.

……

"Wow, Dad, look at that! A black butterfly!"

Mo Mo carried Yui to the lakeside, and Yui ran quickly among the grass and flowers, seemingly a carefree child.

Seeing Yui's joyful smile, Mo Mo's lips also curved into a smile. Yui's current innocence and purity were exactly what he liked to see most.

Such a child should not have darkness in his heart.

"Oh--"

Yui, head held high, walked cautiously and unsteadily toward Momo. The black butterfly had landed on the tip of Yui's nose. Yui looked up at the sky, but her feet were moving toward Momo, as if she wanted Momo to see this rare sight.

However, facing the sky with one's feet on uneven grass is a very difficult task for a seven or eight-year-old child.

"oops!

Sure enough, Yui tripped over her own feet, lost her balance, and fell backward. The butterfly on her nose flew up, and just as Yui cried out that she was about to fall, a tall figure gently picked her up, preventing her from falling.

After a few seconds of surprise, Yui completely forgot her earlier shock and giggled, saying, "Haha, Daddy, Yui loves Daddy the most!"

"And what about Mom?"

"Yui loves her mom the most too!"

"If Yui had to choose between her mom and dad, who would she choose?"

"Yui chooses her parents, she can't be without either of them!"

Listening to the conversation between the foolish father and daughter, Reimu Hakurei could hardly bear it anymore and said, "You brought Yui out here, it can't just be for refuge, right? What are you planning? Why don't you take action sooner?"

Mo Mo nodded, smiled at Yui, and said, "Then, Yui, Daddy has a question for you. You must answer Daddy according to your own thoughts, okay?"

"Ok!"

"So, Yui, let me ask you this: would you truly be my daughter? Not my daughter in this game, but my daughter in the real world, in any world, forever my daughter?"

Yui suddenly opened her eyes wide and froze.

Because Momo activated his trading power and requested a transaction from Yui, wanting Yui to become his daughter.

"In return, I will love you forever, protect you, and be your father. Are you willing?"

The power of transaction truly reached Yui's heart, allowing her to make a choice. Yui's current wisdom is more than enough to make her a worthy trading partner.

"Hey, can you actually pull off this kind of deal?"

"Of course it can be done. Anyway, Yui is just a program right now. The blueprint for the program is still with Kayaba Akihiko. I will get the original program for Yui from Kayaba Akihiko later."

"With Yui's original program and the power of transaction, there will eventually be a way to either allow Yui to continue existing or to transform her into a human. Didn't Alice's robot appear later in Sword Art Online?"

Reimu Hakurei nodded and said, "But why would you do something like this? You brought Yui out here because you wanted to find out the secrets about Yui, and what kind of conspiracy is behind this?"

“That’s right, that’s right. I’m not like Kayaba Akihiko. I would never be so heartless as to take advantage of a girl like Yui. Instead, I would help Yui solve her problems and relieve her worries.”

Mo Mo didn't ask Yui why she was there or what her relationship was with Kayaba Akihiko. Instead, he chose to make Yui his true daughter and then face everything with her as a father.

Yui pursed her lips, her body trembling, and two lines of tears streamed down her face.

Momo activated the trading power, and the successful activation of the trading power indicates that the trading power agrees with the conditions proposed by Momo, which are currently achievable by Momo. Therefore, the trading power was able to be activated successfully.

Moreover, the successful transaction would inevitably earn Yui's trust. Yui already believed that Mo Mo truly wanted to be her father, rather than the current hypocritical relationship.

"But...is this really okay, Dad...Dad has already seen it, hasn't he? He must have seen it from the very beginning, right? Yui...Yui is lying...Yui has ulterior motives...Yui is not a good child."

"No, Yui isn't even human... she's just a program."

Mo Mo gently wiped away the tears from Yui's eyes and said, "Yui is Yui. I don't care whether she's human or not. What I care about and what I like is Yui as she is. So, Yui, don't think about so much. Just follow your heart."

"Does Yui even have a heart...?"

Yui touched her heart and said, "Yui... Yui because... Yui can't say, Yui's purpose... can't be said either, even so, does Daddy still like Yui?"

"Yes, Yui, you shouldn't have to face all of this. This is your father's battle, your father's battle with Kayaba Akihiko."

“Dad knows you don’t want to do this, and there must be Kayaba Akihiko’s plan behind it. Dad won’t let you break your promise. What Dad wants to do is to truly become your father and face this with you as your father.”

"Answer me, Yui, are you willing?"

Yui's face lit up with a bright smile, and she said, "I do, I do!"

"Dad, Yui loves you the most!"

PS: Third update!

069 As expected, he's still that annoying brat!

"Deal done. Congratulations, Mo Mo. You've successfully evolved from picking up girls to trafficking young girls. You're going further and further down the path of scum. The death star above your head is shining, and it's the light of a hatchet!"

"For my daughter, I would go even if it meant facing a million enemies!"

Are you secretly a doting father?

"Nonsense! I'm a perfectly legitimate and openly devoted father to my daughter! Why wouldn't I be a devoted father to such an adorable daughter like Yui? Being a devoted father to my daughter is a matter of justice. How can a father who doesn't love his daughter give her his whole heart and soul!"

"The heart is enough; the body need not be!"

"You're so dirty-minded!"

"It's all your fault! You've corrupted me!"

Yui was still sobbing in Mo Mo's arms, holding him tightly. Her trembling finally stopped, and Mo Mo felt a chill in his heart as he sensed the change in the girl.

Kayaba Akihiko, you actually did it.

If you really don't plan to play the game properly... don't blame me for sitting on the table!

After a while, Yui raised her head and looked at Momo. Because the transaction power had confirmed it, Yui believed that the Momo in front of her was her father, not the kind of father that Yui had been forced to acknowledge. The two of them already had a close father-daughter relationship.

"dad?"

"I'm here, Yui."

"father!"

"Well, it's me."

"Dad, I love you, Yui loves you!"

"Mmm, mwah!"

"Oh, my dog ​​eyes! Who will heal my dog ​​eyes?!"

Reimu Hakurei rolled around on Momo's head, blinded by the flashbangs of the father and daughter, her face streaked with blood and tears.

"father!"

Yui hugged Momo's neck, rubbing her face against Momo's, as if only by being as close as possible could she show her affection for Momo.

After a while, Yui came to her senses and looked at Mo Mo hesitantly, saying, "Dad, I don't know if I should say it... I'm afraid there will be bad consequences if I do. It's not that I don't trust you, but you might not be able to help me."

Mo Mo wasn't angry. Yui possessed human intelligence, but not necessarily human common sense, much less the understanding of reality. Therefore, Yui's judgments were unreliable, though she herself was unaware of this.

However, Mo Mo would not rashly deny Yui's judgment. Firstly, Yui might be saddened by it. Secondly, if there were any absolute conditions that Mo Mo could not meet, wouldn't that make Yui the culprit?

"In that case, the next step will be the time for the father and daughter to communicate telepathically."

"Telepathy? A father-daughter telepathy? Yui, Yui, what should we do?"

After saying that, Mo Mo hugged Yui and touched her forehead to hers, saying, "Reimu, please tell Yui what I'm thinking."

"Huh? That's against the rules! Ah, alright, alright, stop looking at me with those teary eyes. I know you got sand in your eyes and were pretending to cry with Yui. I'll help you, but only by activating the transaction function."

After saying that, Reimu conveyed Momo's thoughts to Yui, saying, "Yui, listen."

"Hey, Daddy, Daddy's voice..."

As she spoke, Yui seemed to have thought of something and quickly shut her mouth, saying, "Next, I will make a deal with you, promising to help you get out of your current predicament. You need to think clearly about your current predicament and then make a deal with me as a condition."

"Whether it succeeds or not, let Dad's strength decide."

Yui nodded as if she understood, and then Momo activated his trading ability.

Yui closed her eyes and thought for a long time before finally opening them. Reimu Hakurei's voice rang in Mo Mo's mind.

"Deal reached."

Mo Mo narrowed his eyes slightly, digesting the information he had received from Yui, and said, "I see. Kayaba Akihiko has indeed gone astray."

"Ah, I think it's really unfortunate that such a pure scientist has been corrupted by you."

"Huh, is it my fault?"

"Isn't that right? After all, you were the one who mentioned those two words to him. But now that he's been driven to a dead end, he can only use those two words to punish you. After all, you've already ruined 80% of his game."

Mo Mo grinned and said, "You stingy little thing. So what if you stole his position as the chief guild leader? This chuunibyou is hopeless."

"What will you do next? It seems that Kayaba Akihiko has been preparing for a long time. Yui is just the beginning."

"Well, in general, it depends on what Kayaba Akihiko does. But it seems he can't wait to make me leave the stage, and he wants to make me leave in an embarrassing way."

"So, I'm really excited. Is there some guy who wants to challenge me? How can I not play along with him and live up to his challenge? Since he doesn't want me to ruin his game, I'll just ruin his game anyway."

Mo Mo smiled knowingly and said, "Actually, I was planning to continue playing, since this game is an important part of everyone's life. However, he keeps breaking the rules and trying to kick me out of the game, so I have no choice but to flip the table."

"Anyway, this game doesn't mean much to me anymore."

"Ah, I feel so sorry for him. He insists on putting those two words into practice in front of you. Isn't that just like making a clown in front of a monkey?"

"Hey, why do you think you're a monkey? You're such a cute girl!"

"It's you, you bastard!"
