"It's just easier to say it this way! Second, you're not allowed to try to attack Mother. You're just a tool to gain emotional value, so don't even think about overstepping your bounds. Otherwise, I'll punish you."
"Continue." Mochizuki Oboro was quite confident in not taking the initiative to act.
If nothing unexpected happens, Mochizuki Oboro will at least wait until after high school to confirm her relationship with the opposite sex who have feelings for her... assuming nothing unexpected happens.
"Third, you can be considered one of my people for now. If you are ever bullied to the point where you can't take it anymore, just say so, and I will help you get revenge."
Just when Mochizuki thought that Bawanshi had uttered the only human word, her expression suddenly turned contemptuous: "But that also means that you have given up your male dignity and asked me for help. From now on, you can't disobey me. Just be a talking toy."
After a conversation that was neither difficult nor easy, Mochizuki Oboro and Bawanshi reluctantly reached some consensus.
Mochizuki Oboro did not take the initiative to attack Morgan, nor did Bawanshi deliberately cause him trouble.
They continued to interact normally while at school, but after leaving school, they went their separate ways.
Since the real-life Bawanshi is not much different from her in the game simulation, Mochizuki Oboro is somewhat skilled at dealing with her.
……
Shortly after adding contact information in the elevator, I arrived at the 39th floor.
This is Chairman Morgan's main office area, which also serves as his personal living and rest area.
Because the floor space is very large, Morgan and Artoria both adopted the same approach, dividing the space into two sections. However, Camelot's seventh floor is used for daily team building activities, while Morgan's side is used for office work.
Very few people have the authority to directly access the 39th floor and meet Morgan directly; only a few, such as Melousin, Bagst, and Bavanshi, possess this privilege.
As for why "etc." is used... Caster and Artoria also use it.
After all, they are sisters. Although Morgan often bickers with her sister Artoria, there is still some trust between them.
Needless to say, Caster was a silly, dull-witted English wild boar. In Morgan's eyes, this younger sister was almost identical to his daughter, Bavanshi.
And now, Avalon has welcomed a new access master.
With the chairman's personal authorization, there was no place in the entire company that he couldn't access; this level of trust made him practically Morgan's proxy.
However, I personally have no such intention.
Good morning, Mochizuki-kun.
Morgan elegantly poured a glass of non-alcoholic beverage and handed it over: "Golden Week is coming to an end."
"To be precise, there's still one day left." Mochizuki Oboro thanked him and took the drink. "The atmosphere in the company is quite nice."
"Right?" Morgan rested his cheek on his left hand. "Since you think it's alright, why don't you give it a try here? It won't affect your studies, and you can do it part-time."
Mochizuki Oboro took a sip of her drink: "Putting aside other issues, my skills are probably not of any use in your company."
Avalon's main business is software development, and Mochizuki Oboro has no relevant training. If he were to start working directly, he'd only be able to type "hello world" code.
"That's a misunderstanding."
Morgan subtly moved closer, closing the distance between himself and Mochizuki Oboro to within half a meter: "Ordinary employees, accountants, artists, operations, HR... there are many different positions in a company, and we happen to have a vacancy here."
—The chairman's secretary.
Judging from the position and job duties, the responsibilities were similar to those of a personal attendant.
In reality, Morgan didn't really need a secretary. Her personal abilities were more than sufficient to handle the company's daily operations.
But a secretary's role isn't limited to office work; there are other uses as well...
As always, Mochizuki Oboro declined Morgan's invitation.
If you don't want to change jobs and don't have the time or energy, the answer you can give is quite simple.
After yet another failed attempt to poach talent, Morgan didn't react much—after all, this outcome wasn't hard to predict.
The main event is what follows. The purpose of inviting Mochizuki Oboro today certainly wasn't just to have tea and chat.
"There is something that has not been made public."
Morgan placed his hand on Mochizuki Ryou's thigh, fiddling with it back and forth with his fingertips, much like a suspect about to commit a crime.
Bawanshi picked up the conversation: "Have you heard of VR?"
“Virtual reality,” Mochizuki Oboro replied.
By using computer simulation to generate a three-dimensional virtual environment, and through multi-sensory simulation such as vision, hearing, and touch, users can experience an immersive feeling as if they are actually there.
Many people had hoped that Academy City's technology would create a globally popular VR world, but in reality, there has been no progress to date.
The energy available for scientific research is limited. In addition, the achievements of the Academy City Chaldea in developing robots and everyday consumer products are so remarkable that people have gradually come to accept that Chaldea focuses more on the real world.
"What do you mean?" Mochizuki Oboro raised his eyebrows.
"Although there is still some time before the official release, we have already built a rough framework, which allows Mochizuki-kun to experience it first and give his feedback."
Morgan said confidently, "This is a magnificent culmination of the technology and wisdom of the entire Academy City, and it will definitely not disappoint you."
With Trismegistus, the supreme spiritual quantum computing machine of Academy City, at its core, and companies such as Aztec, Avalon, and Ryougi participating in different roles, it can be described as an all-star lineup.
"That is to say?"
"My mother and I will show you around, it's that simple."
……
VR connected. Server connected. Welcome to this service.
[Users: 3]
[Virtual reality setup in progress, please wait.]
Mochizuki Oboro sat in a chair in the virtual world lobby and opened her eyes.
"Welcome~ Are you surprised, senior?"
BB clapped his hands and smiled broadly.
"Are you an omnipresent cockroach?" Mochizuki Oboro exclaimed in astonishment.
BB pouted: "That's so rude. Since it's a virtual world made up of data, of course the all-powerful BB can interfere."
The step of uploading consciousness data was blocked by the lousy AI.
Considering that BB can pause time in the real world as well, Mochizuki Oboro thinks it's probably the same here, and Morgan and Bavanshi won't find anything unusual.
Mochizuki Oboro, unfazed, rested her elbows on the sofa armrests and propped her chin on her hand: "And then, what mischief are you planning to do?"
"Although BB thinks this game is very rough, almost like a caveman's mural... but considering the so-called limitations of the era, it's still acceptable."
BB pinched his chin and pulled up the data from the VR world: "In short, I will isolate the senior's data separately, create an independent world, and not share it with others."
"That is, private servers." (Translation by Mochizuki Oboro)
"That's right, both currently available romanceable characters and future romanceable characters will be thoughtfully placed in the same server data~"
Within those few seconds of the conversation, BB had already completed the operation, and the entire virtual world was being invaded by Mooncell.
A world where azure and crimson intertwine.
SE.RA.PH, the computer paradise of the moon.
"You mentioned before that you wanted me to wage a battle for control of this place..."
“That’s right, this is it.” BB nodded. “I’ve already adjusted everything for you, senior.”
The red areas represent occupied territories, and the blue areas represent stable territories. Mochizuki Oboro's mission in the virtual world is to reclaim the occupied territories.
However, whether or not to complete it is entirely voluntary.
[Side Quest Unlocked: The Great Order of Fate]
[This mission will officially begin after VR has become fully widespread in the real world where you are.]
This is a massive, fantastical adventure that takes place in a virtual world, and the story that unfolds from it. The overall style leans towards lighthearted entertainment; treat it as a game to relax and unwind.
This side quest is quite long, consisting of many sub-chaps. Please consider your real-world time before playing.
Current task progress: 0%
【mission rewards:? ? ? 】
"Based on the completion status of this VR," BB calculated, "you should be able to see it released in a while. At the latest, it won't be later than summer vacation."
Mochizuki Oboro stretched: "Although it's a virtual story like a game simulation, this side quest can be considered a large-scale multiplayer online adventure, right?"
"That's right~ Baby's free service ends here, see you next time~"
The AI, whose only redeeming quality was its beauty, waved its hand and then sent Mochizuki Oboro back to its original virtual world.
The virtual world hacked by BB showed no reaction, and the relevant data was quickly set up.
An endless ocean.
The water shimmered and was a vast expanse of blue.
The damp sea breeze felt incredibly real, and the seagulls circling overhead cried out to each other.
Wang Yuelong stood on the small boat, observing this virtual world.
"How is it?" Morgan asked. "Were you surprised?"
“A little,” Mochizuki Oboro replied.
Bending over and reaching your hand into the water.
The temperature and flow rate are exactly the same as in reality.
It seems to be a world similar to BB's game simulation. It's just that its parameters are a bit worse.
Chapter 160 The Pool and the Girl
At 1:36 PM, Meilushin woke up.
Everything has its own shortcomings. Even if something is "omniscient and omnipotent," it can still be found to have the flaw of "lacking growth potential."
As the fastest, strongest, and most elegant Servant with the characteristics of a pure-blooded dragon, Melsin also has her own weakness: she can't get up in the morning.
This is not an obstacle that can be overcome by adjusting one's biological clock; rather, it is an integral part of the existence of "Merusin," on par with personality, soul, and body.
Meilushin rubbed her eyes, groggily got dressed, and by the time she finished washing up, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
As usual, she would go to the cafeteria to get something simple, but today was different; she wanted to get straight to the point.
Biometric identification is performed, and then the elevator button is pressed.
Less than five seconds after stepping out of the elevator, she broke through all the obstacles and arrived at the entrance to the 39th floor.
……
[All romanceable characters have been unlocked]
Morgan Stanley: 35%
[All romanceable characters have been unlocked]
[Bavanshi: 19%]
"Why are there rice bowls?" Mochizuki Oboro thought to herself.
However, the relationship between these two is similar to that between myself and Tiamat; they are not related by blood, otherwise it would be too bizarre.
Sky, earth, lakes, ocean, flowers, meadows.
The technology displayed in the virtual world is quite similar to the simulation room that Mochizuki Oboro experienced at the research institute.
While it may not be as flawless as game simulations, it is still a remarkably impressive technology.
"How about that? Speechless with shock, huh?" Bawanxi took off the VR device, head held high and chest puffed out.
All users who have experienced it so far have been impressed by its exaggeratedly realistic feel, so it's safe to assume that Mochizuki Oboro is no exception.
"It's alright," commented Mochizuki Oboro.
"We plan to..."
Before Morgan could finish speaking, the Dragon Servant pounced over and pinned Mochizuki Oboro down. The series of movements was so fluid and familiar that it seemed strangely familiar.
"Darling!" Melosin rubbed against Mochizuki Ryou's chest, her silly, melting expression on her face. "It's been so long! Did you miss me?"
“If I were weaker, I would be dead by now.” Mochizuki Oboro moved Melishin’s head away. “Also, remember to check the atmosphere.”
