Ling Yuan and Wang Ming walked out of the classroom side-by-side.

Many people around them showed envious expressions.

So many people wanted to get close to Wang Ming, yet only Ling Yuan, who treated him with indifference, succeeded.

"No way, bro, you made this anime in just a few days?"

Wang Ming was stunned after finishing the Empty Law Promotional Video in his hands.

The exquisite modeling, the rendering of the scenes, the seamless transitions between actions, and the special effects that looked as real as they could be.

No matter how he looked at it, it didn't seem like something one could learn on their own.

What? You're asking about the voice acting? Were the people in the group just decorations? If that wasn't enough, there's always the million-dollar audio editing.

"Doesn't everyone have some talent? You know?" Ling Yuan said, patting Wang Ming's shoulder.

"True, man, that look in the final moment was amazing. I'm in! I support this. Wait, I'm going home to ask Dad for resources!"

Seeing the Herrscher of Reason, riding on Belleronus's head, cast a glance at him, Wang Ming was completely captivated at that moment.

Ling Yuan just smiled gently at this.

It was worth the two days he spent grinding.

"Ling Yuan!"

At this moment, a shout came from a distance.

Hearing someone call his name, Ling Yuan subconsciously looked up.

Only then did he realize they had unknowingly walked all the way to the school gate.

And at the school gate, a graceful figure was waving at him, her smiling face making everything around her dim.

Everyone around was looking at her with surprised eyes.

A girlfriend picking up her boyfriend after school? How bold.

"Whoa, she's so pretty!"

Wang Ming, who had also looked up, was instantly amazed the moment he saw Han Yurou.

"Your girlfriend?"

"My childhood friend," Ling Yuan said, then walked over.

"Damn! Childhood sweethearts?!"

Wang Ming, who had finally reacted, cursed under his breath and followed.

Ling Yuan arrived in front of Han Yurou and asked, "Why are you here?"

As he spoke, he reached out and took Larulas down from her shoulder, holding it in his arms.

"Larul~"

Larulas let out a contented cry.

Han Yurou: "..."

You traitor!

But she still managed a restrained smile, "I knew you were graduating today, so I came specifically to see you."

"Thanks."

"Ling Yuan, Ling Yuan, introduce us?" Wang Ming, who had walked over, nudged Ling Yuan's back.

"This is my friend, Han Yurou, we've been playing together since we were kids."

"This is Wang Ming, his dad is Wang Jing from the Monitoring Bureau."

Wang Ming's expression turned serious, and he said respectfully, "Hello, sister-in-law."

"You're taking advantage of me?" Ling Yuan raised an eyebrow.

"Then, um, thank you, big brother," Han Yurou said to Wang Ming, seemingly embarrassed.

Ling Yuan: "???"

One's willing to hit, the other's willing to take a beating, did they even ask for my opinion?

"But speaking of Han Yurou, isn't your father's name Han Zhang?" Wang Ming suddenly asked.

Han Yurou was startled, then nodded, "Yes."

"What a coincidence! Ling Yuan, you call her your childhood friend, but her family owns an anime company, didn't you know that?" Wang Ming complained.

Hearing this, Ling Yuan remembered.

Han Yurou's family ran a small anime company and also had their own video website.

Seeing the two of them fall silent, Han Yurou tilted her head curiously, "???"

What's wrong?

Ling Yuan felt a surge of emotion for a moment.

"Don't we have a ready-made platform right here?"

He took the tablet from Wang Ming and handed it to Han Yurou. "Yurou, can I see your company's website?"

"You can, but what are you planning to do?"

With a hint of confusion, Han Yurou logged onto her family's website.

Ling Yuan handed Larulas back and took the tablet. His pupils instantly lit up.

There were no unnecessary ads, nor any other miscellaneous junk.

It only featured anime from Yurou's family company and a few others.

A good website, exactly what Ling Yuan had in mind.

He just needed to lay out a plan and add a bit of SAO's flair, and it would be perfect!

Moreover, Han Yurou's family was an animation company. In the future, he might even be able to give them scripts to produce anime from his past life.

Relying on the System was unreliable; he had to work hard himself.

He grew more satisfied the more he looked. "Yurou, please arrange a meeting. In a few days, I'll have a good talk with Uncle Han."

"Huh?" Han Yurou blinked.

Immediately, her face turned a deep crimson, as if it could bleed. She stammered, "Um, won't that be too fast?"

"Fast? I think it's slow," Ling Yuan said absently, scrolling through the webpage.

Han Yurou: "!!!"

At this, Han Yurou's face practically buried itself in the ample bosom in front of her.

"Wang Ming, please give us some priority with the resources later."

Wang Ming didn't reply. Instead, he looked at the nonchalant Ling Yuan and the blushing Han Yurou with a strange expression.

Is there some kind of misunderstanding between you two?

"Ling Yuan, the platform is manageable, but resources might be a bit tricky."

"What's wrong?"

"It involves a lot of interests, and right now you only have a short film. Who knows how long it will take to make an animation," Wang Ming said with some difficulty.

"Who said I'm making an animation?"

"Huh?" Wang Ming blinked.

"Although it looks like I'm making an animation, I'm actually making a game. The platform is just for promoting my CG," Ling Yuan said, a smile playing on his lips.

Wang Ming: "???"

"You can't be serious. Do you know how massive game development is? How can you possibly make a game all by yourself?" Wang Ming asked, dumbfounded.

"Then wait for me. In ten days, I'll have it done for you."

"Uh, brother, it's not that I don't believe you, but what you're saying is just too incredible." Wang Ming calmed down a bit and advised.

"This thing is like cultivation; it requires time and refinement."

"Don't worry, leave it to me. It'll be fine," Ling Yuan said with a confident smile.

He turned to the fidgeting Han Yurou. "Yurou, please arrange a time for me to meet Uncle Han."

"!"

Hearing Ling Yuan's words, Han Yurou jolted.

Her fair hands continuously squeezed Larulas, making the little creature feel like it was suffocating.

"Um, I'm free tonight. Ling Yuan, why don't you come over for dinner?"

"I'm going," Wang Ming said enviously.

The girl was shy, and she was actively throwing herself at him.

He wished his own goddess would treat him like that.

"No problem. Give me your home address. I'll head over after I take care of a few things."

Upon hearing this, Han Yurou quickly dropped Larulas and picked up her phone.

With a 'tap tap' sound.

Ding dong!

Ling Yuan's phone chimed. He had the address.

"Alright, that's settled. I'm leaving now."

With the address in hand, Ling Yuan waved goodbye to Wang Ming, looking very pleased.

"Wait for me."

Han Yurou quickly picked up the Larulas from the ground and followed.

"..."

A gentle breeze blew, leaving Wang Ming utterly bewildered where he stood.

"Ling Yuan, why did you suddenly decide to make a game?" Han Yurou asked curiously as they strolled down the street.

"I was just bored. People have to find things to do in life," Ling Yuan chuckled.

"Oh, right, Ling Yuan, how's your Contract Beast?"

"Oh, Bella? She evolved."

Ling Yuan extended his hand, and with a burst of flames, a cute, chibi-style Belleronus appeared in his palm.

Bella now fully possessed the Flame Law Core, having transformed into a true Judgment-class Honkai Beast. The quality of her flames had increased severalfold.

Her energy reserves had also significantly expanded.

"So pretty." The moment Han Yurou saw the Belleronus, her heart was completely captured.

"And she's so adorable when she's small."

Unlike the previous Charging Honkai Beast that was half her size, Bella, now evolved into Belleronus, could freely control her body size.

With this ability, she naturally adjusted to a comfortable size for Ling Yuan.

"Want to hold her?"

"Can I?"

"Just give me the Larulas."

"Here!"

Without hesitation, Han Yurou handed over the Larulas. Honestly, she was tired of playing with it, and besides, Bella was the Contract Beast of someone she liked.
