"How would Ye Ming know if you've gained or lost weight since it's your first time meeting?"
"Huh?"
Only then did Ganyu realize that she had habitually regarded Ye Ming as an old acquaintance.
"That's nice... it's been a long time since I've felt this way."
While Himeko and Ganyu were joking around, Ye Ming was silently admiring the soft, voluptuous slimes on their chests.
The pair on the left belonged to Ganyu, and the pair on the right belonged to Himeko, making Ye Ming's heart flutter.
"Speaking of which, Ye Ming, what kind of game do you want to make? Our previous consecutive failures have left us feeling a bit lost. We'd like to hear your thoughts."
"Hmm..."
Ye Ming felt that the time was right, so he said to the girls:
"I want to create a healthy, positive, and uplifting game based on all of you."
Ye Ming told the girls present about the plans for Honkai Impact 3rd and Genshin Impact.
Although he didn't go into detail about the plot, the very concept of the games left them dumbfounded.
"That's quite shocking."
"If we can really make a game like that, it will definitely set a trend."
"But..."
Just as everyone was praising him, A-Tzu, the most intelligent of them all, was the first to think of the problem:
"We don't have the ability to make this game. To be precise, no manufacturer dares to make such a big gamble at the moment."
The highest level of the current game industry is only at the level of Maple Island and Floating City and Warriors, which simply cannot meet Ye Ming's plans.
"I will solve the technical and equipment problems. The work assigned to everyone will definitely be within their capabilities."
"Then... why use us as the prototypes?" Himeko asked curiously.
"To control labor costs."
Ye Ming thought of a good reason:
"If you all play the main characters, we won't have to find other people for voice acting, motion capture, etc."
"We understand voice acting, but what is motion capture?"
"Hehe, it's a very interesting technology. You'll all understand soon."
That night, Ye Ming told them many things that were very new to the girls.
As a result, by the end of the party, everyone was not only not drunk, but also full of energy.
"System, I want technology, preferably the kind that can generate products with one click."
--Yes, but it's like a loan, you have to pay it back, and it's settled with money.
"No problem, exchange it for me."
--Including principal and interest, you have to pay back nearly 200 million.
"Don't worry, 200 million a year is a small problem."
The system still doesn't understand the potential of the game market, especially when the current cake is basically untouched.
--Don't regret it.
With a "ding" sound like a cheat code, Ye Ming quickly mastered all the technologies related to game development.
"The motion capture equipment I told you about last night is in the room."
The next day at work, Ye Ming called everyone over and began to explain one by one:
"The ones whose names are called will come into the room with me in a moment. No one else is allowed to come in during this time."
The room was completely sealed and had no windows. For the girls, it was a completely mysterious space.
"Himeko, you come with me first."
After the two entered the room, Ye Ming closed the door, blocking the girls' curious gazes.
"So, what exactly do we need to do?"
"Take off your coat first."
"And then?"
Underneath Himeko's coat was a very tight-fitting thermal shirt, and her curvy figure made Ye Ming pause for a moment.
"Open your arms. I need to put markers on your body."
Himeko did as she was told, and Ye Ming began to put markers on the key parts of Himeko's body.
From her neck to her shoulders, and then to the bulge in her chest...
"W-wait a minute!"
Ye Ming hugged Himeko from behind, which reminded her of the romance movies she'd seen.
Their current position was practically like lovers in the throes of passion.
"We're not doing anything weird, are we?"
Ye Ming's touch made Himeko's heart flutter. Ever since he started, she couldn't help but let her imagination run wild…
Thinking that Ye Ming might kiss her, or even go further.
It felt like these things had happened before, her body reacting in anticipation.
"Of course not. This is technical work. Why would you think it's weird?"
"It's just that… Ugh!"
Himeko bit her lip. She wanted to say that Ye Ming's movements were too intimate, but on second thought, such a complaint would be unreasonable.
Ye Ming hadn't even done anything yet! She couldn't very well accuse him based on the fantasies in her head, could she?
"Next is here… and here…"
"Ugh, hmm~~"
Himeko was currently experiencing a state akin to "phantom pain," feeling sensations that shouldn't be there.
Except it wasn't pain, but a strange, addictive feeling.
The process was pure torment for Himeko. All of Ye Ming's movements were perfectly normal, he wasn't doing anything strange.
But her body was receiving signals that screamed, "Time for a good fight!" making her emit beautiful sounds.
It seemed that some memories, though forgotten by the brain, were still remembered by the body.
4. Awkwardness for Those Who Feel Nothing
"When is it my turn?"
Outside the motion capture room, Kiana and the others were anxiously awaiting Ye Ming's summons.
This motion capture technology, which they had never heard of before, filled them with endless fantasies.
"Should we sneak a peek?"
"No, Ye Ming said we're not allowed to open the door without his permission."
A-Tzu stopped Kiana, but she was also very curious. As the former God of Wisdom, she had always been interested in novel things.
"How about we eavesdrop?"
The understanding Makoto saw through A-Tzu's thoughts and suggested with a smile:
"Ye Ming only said we couldn't watch, he didn't say we couldn't listen to the sounds, right?"
"That's right!"
Kiana clapped her hands in approval. A-Tzu didn't object either. Together with Bronya, the girls pressed their ears against the door.
Soon, they heard Himeko's charming voice.
"W-What's going on?!"
Keqing, Makoto, and A-Tzu blushed crimson at the sounds coming from the room, while Kiana asked curiously:
"Huh? Can you guys tell what's going on in there?"
"Th-This…"
Even A-Tzu, who usually loved to educate people, didn't know how to explain the situation.
— Bang!
Just as the embarrassing atmosphere was spreading, Himeko suddenly burst out of the door.
She covered her face, which was red to the roots of her hair, and ran away as if her life depended on it.
"Why is Aunt Himeko in such a hurry? I haven't even asked anything yet."
Kiana still didn't understand anything, and just then, Ye Ming's voice came again:
"Next up, Keqing. Remember to dress lightly."
"I-It's my turn."
Originally, the girls had been looking forward to going into the room with Ye Ming, but after seeing Himeko's reaction, their anticipation turned into shyness and nervousness.
"Stand still."
Ye Ming knew exactly where to focus his efforts when it came to modeling Keqing.
He helped Keqing smooth out the wrinkles on her black stockings, then attached one marker after another.
"W-Wait a minute!"
Keqing pressed on Ye Ming's head, trying to stop his hands from continuing upwards, but the force she used was minimal, as if deep down she didn't really want to resist.
"It feels so strange… Ugh~ Hmm~~"
Keqing, whose legs couldn't help but tremble, felt the same sensation as Himeko.
"Does this thing emit electricity? Or does it vibrate?"
"Of course not, what are you thinking?"
"Because… it feels strange."
Ye Ming wasn't lying; he was handling official business. But Keqing was indeed feeling flustered by the tingling sensation coming from her lower body.
It was as if, at some point in the past, Ye Ming had done something similar to her, except he hadn't used a marker point, but other tools.
So her body remembered the feeling from then.
At the same time, the girls outside the room, listening to the sounds Keqing was making, couldn't help but blush.
Now they were even more convinced that something unspeakable was happening inside the room.
"I can't believe even Keqing…"
A-Tzu looked worried. Keqing had always been synonymous with being swift and decisive among them.
If even such a strong woman had fallen, they really didn't know what kind of terrifying methods Ye Ming was using.
"So embarrassing! Waaah!"
And just as they imagined, before long, an unbearably shy Keqing burst out of the room, fleeing in disarray with the same reaction as Himeko.
"Next, Ganyu."
"It's Ganyu…"
"So cruel."
Upon hearing Ganyu's name called, both A-Tzu and Makoto wore expressions of regret.
They went to Ganyu, took her hands in theirs, and while praying for her, cast her pitiful glances.
