Zongman: Even if I am reborn, I still want to live my daily life

Ai Haibara nodded: "He can light flames on his hands, trying to prove to me that he can really summon me to this world."

But Sakura was dumbfounded: "Flames? How come I don't know that?"

"You didn't know?" Ai Haibara was also confused. "But I saw it with my own eyes."

“It’s not that I don’t trust you, but neither of us knows. The superpowers we know of have only recently been revealed, while the summoning ability existed several years ago. They shouldn’t have been acquired at the same time.”

"So, the reason he got his superpowers is different?" Ai Haibara wondered.

“That should be the case, but my brother is keeping it from us because he wants to surprise us. He likes doing that.” Sakura commented to Gao Yumo, but if Gao Yumo heard her, he would only say, “You’re pretty much the same!” Sakura is also a girl with a mischievous sense of humor, but her pranks are mainly aimed at Gao Yumo, such as feeding him mushrooms, which he hates the most, and Gao Yumo always falls for it.

.0 ...

"Is that all it is?" Ai Haibara hadn't expected Takahata Mo to have this kind of personality.

"Yes, my brother really likes playing pranks, he has a particularly wicked sense of humor."

"I couldn't tell at all... Well, I can tell. He just played a prank on me and scared me." Ai Haibara wanted to say she couldn't tell, but she immediately remembered what had just happened.

"Hehe, it seems you already know." Sakura said with a smile. Her brother really knew how to play pranks whenever he could.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind them.

"I think I heard someone talking badly about me?"

"Yeah~"

"You startled me! When did you get here, brother?" Xiaoying turned around and saw Gao Yumo standing right behind them, completely unnoticed.

"While you're all talking badly about me," Gao Yumo said with a smile.

"Bad things? Are there?" But Sakura pretended not to know.

"What? Do you want me to repeat myself?" Gao Yumo rubbed her head and said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, I know I was wrong." Sakura quickly surrendered. Ai Haibara watched the siblings interact and smiled. It was so sweet! Then she thought of her own sister, but this time she wasn't so dejected, because she had a glimmer of hope!

"Your clothes are all ready. Let's go try them on." Gao Yumo let go of her, gestured for them to follow, and then walked towards the tailoring room.

"Great!" Sakura was very excited. After all, she could wear the clothes her brother made by hand. Only Gabriel had worn them before, and all the girls were envious. This time, she chose a style that she could wear every day, so she could wear it whenever she wanted.

"Where's that older sister from earlier?" Ai Haibara asked curiously. She did have to call Waka Nami "older sister," since she was only 18 years old before, while Waka Nami was already over 20.

"I went to the toilet," Gao Yumo said calmly, but Xiaoying covered her mouth and chuckled. She could smell it; she was very familiar with that smell. She just didn't know if they did it directly or in some other way.

Speaking of other methods, she hasn't actually tried any of them yet. She's only ever done the most normal one. Yuki said she's tried the other one, but it seems very uncomfortable, so she won't try it herself. But she's actually a little curious...

Chapter 252 Sunflower: Let Little Mo Be Envious (3rd Update)

"So beautiful!" Sakura exclaimed, looking at herself in the mirror.

"It really is beautiful," Ai Haibara couldn't help but say.

Gao Yumo watched the two women from the side. They truly lived up to their reputation, wearing the clothes they made to their best effect. Not everyone could achieve this effect when wearing these clothes.

"I'm still not used to such fancy clothes." Ai Haibara looked at the Lolita dress she was wearing. She really wasn't used to this kind of dress at all, especially since she usually wore a white lab coat.

"That's why I need to wear more clothes," Sakura said with a smile. "Brother, can you make me one of these clothes sometime?"

"Of course you can." Gao Yumo nodded with a smile.

"Great!"

Kagami quickly changed her clothes and came out. It was a very ordinary outfit, but both Gao Yumo's craftsmanship and Kagami's appearance made her completely extraordinary!

"So beautiful! Sister Nami!" Gao Yumo couldn't help but clap her hands.

"No way." Kaname blushed slightly; such praise was still quite embarrassing.

"No need to be modest, Nami-nee, you are very beautiful!" Sakura couldn't help but applaud. Usually, Nami-nee always wears a maid outfit and doesn't wear makeup. Although she is very pretty, she doesn't look this stunning.

"By the way, I've added buffs to these clothes. Can you feel them?" Gao Yumo said.

"Boost? Is it the ability I got from the breakthrough in cooking skills? Now that you mention it, I feel like I really am stronger." Sakura clenched her fist and felt it. "This morning, the boost from last night's dinner disappeared, but just like you said, some of it remained. We are all a little stronger, but not by much. It's nothing compared to the increase yesterday."

"Superpowers?" Ai Haibara clenched her fist like Sakura, and she could indeed feel that her body was different.

"We made dinner tonight, so you didn't know. My brother can add buffs to the food he makes, and eating it gives you all sorts of effects, just like in a game!" Sakura explained when she saw that she didn't know.

"Is it that amazing?" Ai Haibara exclaimed in surprise. Was this another example of something absurd? "But can it be added to clothes? Is this some kind of flexible superpower?"

“Yes, that’s how it is with the young master’s superpowers. Once you acquire them, you can use them in all sorts of ways.” Kaname nodded.

“These clothes not only enhance your strength, but also your reaction speed, defense, durability, and sturdiness. I’ve added a lot of things to protect you,” Gao Yumo continued, introducing the clothes. “Of course, this is my first time trying this, so it might not be successful. After all, the enhancements to your cooking skills are random. You can experiment with it.”

"It should have been successful." Kaname gritted her teeth and tugged at her clothes. They were indeed undamaged. Gao Yumo breathed a sigh of relief. That's good.

“Ai’s clothes have these effects, so they’re not really suitable for wearing out normally. Nami and I, on the other hand, can wear them all the time.” Sakura looked at Ai Haibara’s Lolita outfit, mainly because Ai herself wasn’t used to it.

"It's alright, I'll be making clothes for you all gradually in the future. Everyone in the family will have one. Anyway, I'm very fast at making clothes." Gao Yumo waved her hand dismissively. "These clothes are just extras. The main thing is the food we eat every day. I'll add buffs when I cook. Although the big buffs have time limits, the small ones don't. If you eat every day, your physique will improve in every way."

“That makes sense,” Sakura nodded.

"That sounds amazing, I'm already looking forward to it." Ai Haibara said the same, and she was also looking forward to it.

"Take Ai to Yang Kui's room and give her this dress while you're at it. I won't go over there," Gao Yumo said to Xiaoying, handing her the dress he had made for Yang Kui.

"I understand." Sakura nodded, understanding what her brother meant. Their mother was leaving tomorrow, and her brother didn't want to be too sad.

In Yang Kui's room, Yang Kui changed into the clothes Xiao Mo had made for her and admired them in front of the mirror.

"It's a pity that my brother can't see," Sakura said regretfully from the side.

“It’s no pity, I understand what he means.” Yang Kui shook her head. The two of them were in sync; she thought the same way about not going to Xiao Mo’s room. “Take a picture for me and send it to Xiao Mo.”

"Okay, Mom." Sakura took out her phone and started taking pictures of her mother. Ai Haibara, who was next to her, also took out the phone that Aoi had bought for her and started taking pictures.

Finally, Sakura even took several pictures with Yang Kui's phone and then sent them all to her brother in one go...

"Let him be envious for a good while," Yang Kui said with a smile, but there was still a hint of sadness in her eyes; she would be leaving again tomorrow...

Breakfast time on the second day.

Yang Kui didn't come downstairs to eat, and Gao Yumo didn't call her either. None of the girls mentioned it, but Gao Yumo left a lot of food for her in the kitchen.

"So this is the boost that's added to food?" Ai Haibara said with some curiosity, experiencing this feeling for the first time. The bowl of noodles she ate before was also very delicious, but it didn't have this kind of boost.

"It's really amazing! And when the time runs out, it permanently boosts our stats. If we keep using it, we'll all become incredibly powerful!" Umaru exclaimed excitedly. "We'll all be like superheroes!"

“Indeed!” Tsukuyomi Tsukasa got excited as soon as she heard about superheroes, and the buff was based on her own attributes, so she got more than the other girls.

"I wonder if it has anything to do with how much you eat," Raphiel suddenly thought of this.

Satania's eyes lit up. Who cares if it's related or not! She'll assume it is; eating more is never a bad thing!

The girls watched as Satania suddenly began to eat voraciously, realizing that Raphiel's words had worked on her. Judging from Raphiel's expression, they knew she was doing it on purpose.

The girls shook their heads, but they were actually curious about it too.

3.5 This meal was eaten much faster than usual; every girl ate a lot and ate very quickly.

Gao Yumo discovered that today's benefits definitely included both appetite and food intake. Coupled with Raphiel's words, "Let's cook more food from now on, the girls' appetites will only get bigger and bigger."

After the meal, everyone went out to do what they needed to do. Yang Kui came downstairs and looked at the group of people waiting for her in the restaurant, who didn't have to go to work or school. They were Kaname, Ai Haibara, Tsukuyomi, Sagiri, as well as Jixiang and Yukimyu.

"Mom, come eat." Haibara said to Yang Kui with a sad smile, not showing her negative emotions. She was also reluctant to part with her gentle mother, but she knew that Yang Kui was just going to work and would come home again.

"Mmm!" Yang Kui smiled gently. She really should come back more often in the future!

Chapter 253 Game Release Date! (1st Update)

Time passed quickly, and Saturday arrived. Today was the release date for the first isekai game, "Your Name."

Everyone got up very early today. No one wanted to miss seeing how bustling the bookstore was. They didn't think the bookstore would be empty today; there would only be more people than before!

After breakfast, everyone went out together. Just like when Gao Yumo's comic was first published in Weekly Comic, Gao Yumo and the girls split into groups and went to each bookstore near their homes in one group, so that their large group wouldn't attract attention.

I brought Jixiang and Xueqiu along today. This is the farthest they've ever gone. These past few days, I've only taken them for walks around the neighborhood and haven't gone very far. Their usual place is the backyard of our house, which is actually quite big.

Gao Yumo's team consisted of the main members of the club. Jixiang and Xueqiu were taken away by the other girls. Among them, Shiyu and Zhenbai, who had appeared in public before, disguised themselves. After all, one is a world-class painter and the other is a well-known author who has held autograph sessions. In addition, the members of their club have been very popular online these days, so they might be recognized.

Others don't need to pretend; they won't be recognized at all.

"There are so many people." Eriri and the others watched from a slightly distanced spot because it was impossible to squeeze in; it was a sea of ​​people. "It seems our pre-event promotion really did have a very good publicity effect."

"The reason you have so many people is probably because you have so many fans on Net27, plus your works are really great and popular, right?" Kato Megumi said. "That's why fans are willing to believe that our game must be really fun, which is why there are so many people here."

"Yes, this time the main buyers are our fans. There probably won't be many casual buyers. But once these people buy it, play with it, and then discuss and promote it online, it can attract even more people who aren't our fans to buy it." Gao Yumo nodded, very confident.

"This one store alone must have over a thousand people, right? And it's still early, people are still coming in non-stop. I wonder how many stores across the country will actually sell." Qi Hai looked at the crowd gathered at the store entrance.

"We probably sold at least 100,000 on the first day, and sales will only increase as more people learn about our club," Gao Yumo said.

"More than 100,000? That many?" Nanami exclaimed in shock.

"Yes, and only today." Shi Yu nodded. She didn't think more than 100,000 was a lot. After all, the combined fans of these people numbered in the tens of millions. Of course, there would be a lot of overlap, but selling more than 100,000 was definitely not a problem. After all, not all of them would be their fans buying. This number was a conservative estimate.

Today, many comic book fans who only read Weekly Comic and haven't seen their online promotions might buy it too, seeing so many people buying it.

"These people are really well-mannered, queuing in an orderly manner," Eriri said. "And it looks like a lot of them set up tents and slept here last night, just waiting for the sale to start."

“They’re not exactly well-mannered.” But Gao Yumo shook her head and pointed to the men in black, police officers, and traffic police near the queue. “Yang Kui knew about this situation beforehand, so there must have been people organizing things outside each store beforehand, otherwise everyone would have rushed in to buy things.”

“That makes sense.” Eriri nodded. She knew very well what would happen if no one took care of things; anime conventions were a perfect example.

"By the way, brother, are you selling it online too?" Sagiri, who had been clinging to Takayuki's arm, suddenly asked this question out of curiosity.

“Yes, there are definitely people on our club’s official website who don’t like going out to buy physical copies, so of course we’ll sell them online too.” Gao Yumo ruffled her hair and explained.

"Moreover, those who buy online can start playing immediately and then discuss the story with other netizens on our official website. There should be quite a few people buying online," Eriri added.

"But there must be quite a few people buying offline, right? Maybe even the main body?" Nanami asked uncertainly.

"Oh, why would you say that?" Eriri looked at her curiously.

"After all, although you can play it quickly if you buy it online, going out with friends offline, chatting about how much you're looking forward to the game while waiting in line, and maybe even making some new friends, there should be quite a few people, right?" Nanami explained her thinking.

The others nodded, agreeing that what they said made sense, but there was one thing Nanami might not understand: not everyone has friends.

"I'll know how many have been sold online." Gao Yumo took out her phone and checked the backend of their club's official website.

"It's only been less than two hours since it went on sale, and we've already sold over 100,000 copies!" Gao Yumo couldn't help but get excited. After all, this was their first product, and such sales figures in such a short time were quite remarkable.

"Selling online is definitely better!" Eriri felt she was right.

But Shiyu poured cold water on her enthusiasm, showing her her phone to Eriri: "That's not necessarily true. Look at what's being said online."

Eriri took it and looked at it curiously, and Nanami also curiously joined in.

"What? These people are even queuing up, but they still want to buy one online first?"

On my phone is the "Your Name" section of the official forum of the club. There's a post where someone said that although they were in line, they found that they could also buy it online with their phone, so they bought a copy first and kept the physical copy as a collector's item.

Below are many replies with "+1", "+1"...

"Collecting it? No wonder." Eriri nodded. She could understand that, but Nanami couldn't quite understand it.

“These are definitely a minority.” Gao Yumo glanced at the data and concluded, “These are the fans who have the highest expectations for our work. They’re probably trying to support us more. But most people probably won’t do that. As for whether online or offline sales are better on the first day, Eriri, you and Nanami, we’ll have to wait for Ayano’s data to come out to know.”

“We’re not competing, we’re just curious.” Eriri quickly shook her head, as if she and Nanami were competing. If it were Utaha who said it, of course she would compete, but it was Nanami.

"But I'm curious too, I'm just waiting for Ayano's call." Gao Yumo turned to look at the fans queuing up to buy the game, "By the way, when do you think the first fan to fully experience our most recommended route will appear?"

"I don't think it will take long, after all, the process for 'Your Name' isn't very long," Shiyu said after thinking for a moment. "It should be ready by this afternoon."

“Indeed.” Eriri rarely agreed with Utaha’s statement. “For gamers who enjoy playing these kinds of word games, it’s very clear which option to choose in which place. We haven’t added much interference, so it should appear soon.”

"There are more and more people, brother, let's move further away." Sagiri clung to Takayuki's arm, looking at the ever-growing queue. Although she dared to go out, she was still scared by so many people!

“Actually, we’ve already seen it all. Let’s just go home. After all, although there are a lot of people here, the order is well managed. We can’t hear the people chatting in line. If they won’t let us go home, what will they say?” Pear also agreed.

"Okay, let's go home then." Gao Yumo nodded; there really wasn't anything left to see.

When Gao Yumo and the others returned home, another group had already come back – it was Sophie and her group. It seemed that Sophie couldn't hold on any longer.

"Brother, there are so many people!" Umaru said excitedly. "The store we went to had at least a thousand people!"

“It’s similar on our end,” Gao Yumo said.

"Looks like we'll definitely sell a lot today, right? Do you have the specific figures yet, brother?" Yuki asked curiously.

"We've already sold over 100,000 units online, and the number is still increasing. I guess most people want to buy and play with them first. But for offline sales, we'll have to wait for news from Ayano," Gao Yumo said.

"There are already over 100,000 views online!" But this news was already enough to surprise the girls.
