"System, is this normal?"
——……
"System?"
The system didn't respond to Ye Ming's question, which was a first for him.
Could it be that the system was deliberately hiding something about Elysia, so it chose to remain silent?
"Ye Ming, what's wrong?"
Makoto noticed Ye Ming's odd behavior, while Kiana next to her chuckled:
"Could it be love at first sight with Elysia?"
"Huh?!"
In an instant, Keqing, Makoto, A-Tzu, Himeko, and Ganyu all reacted like cats with their fur standing on end.
Kiana clearly hadn't expected her casual remark to elicit such a reaction from so many people, and she fell silent for a moment.
"No, no, I just feel like Elysia gives me a very dreamlike feeling."
"Oh, is that so? That's normal, then."
Makoto breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"That child is like a fairy; her existence is indeed very dreamlike."
"Is that so..."
So, does that mean the strange feeling I have towards Elysia is normal?
[My spiritual sustenance is finally starting! Wuwuwu!] [I've watched your video clips 30 times! 30 times!]
Not long after the broadcast started, Elysia's live stream became lively.
[But why is Elysia so punctual today?] [Could it be an advertisement?] [Thanks to the sponsor for letting Elysia start the broadcast.]
Elysia's beautiful, bright eyes kept moving with the comments. Seeing everyone's questions, she chuckled.
"Why am I so punctual today? Hehe~~ Of course, it's because I heard everyone's calls!"
Elysia's smile was playful and sweet, enough to turn a scorched earth into a fragrant and beautiful flower garden.
"Don't forget, Elysia will always respond to your expectations, no matter when or where."
[Elysia! Elysia! Elysia!]
When Elysia said her signature line, the comments exploded instantly, filling the screen and making it impossible to watch without blocking them.
"Everyone, the theme of my broadcast today is to talk about a game called 'Honkai Impact 3rd.'"
As she spoke, Elysia opened Bilibili and started playing the game's promotional PV in the live stream.
In addition to the initial promotional animation, Elysia also played the first chapter animation that Ye Ming had recently uploaded.
The screens on the high-rise buildings were filled with air raid warnings.
Huge Honkai beasts occupied the sky, giving people a suffocating feeling of dark clouds pressing down on the city.
Then, Kiana appeared gallantly in the center of the screen.
It seemed that all these crises were just a stage for her to show off her skills.
"As expected of me! So cool!"
Kiana herself exclaimed excitedly, while Bronya covered her mouth.
[As expected, it's shocking no matter how many times I watch it.] [I really want to play the game as soon as possible.]
Seeing the praise in the comments, Ye Ming also glanced at the number of views in the backend.
Before Elysia started the broadcast, the new video only had a little over 100,000 views. After Elysia promoted it, it directly broke 2.5 million, showing the popularity of the fairy lady.
"I think many people are already paying attention to this game. The characters are beautiful, the graphics are exquisite, and the battles are exhilarating, so it's indeed very attractive."
"But, I want to tell everyone that what you should really pay attention to is the game's story."
Speaking of this, Elysia's eyes became much gentler.
"There must be many stories in it that are worth savoring and remembering carefully."
"I really like that sentence... 'Fight for all that is beautiful in the world.'"
"Because for me, there are too many beautiful things in this world."
Hearing Elysia's monologue, Ye Ming's eyes kept trembling.
Flashes of inspiration ran through his mind, but when the light gradually took shape, it dissipated instantly.
What exactly does Elysia know? Why does she seem to know the game's plot inside and out?
"That line... it's really moving," Keqing remarked.
"This might sound strange, but I suddenly feel like, as the game's publisher, we should be paying Elysia," she added.
It wasn't just Keqing; the viewers in the live stream chat were also touched by Elysia's sincerity.
However, the internet's atmosphere is always about entertainment above all else, and the chat's tranquility only lasted a few seconds before someone joked:
[How much did Elysia get paid? She's really going all out.]
[The game hasn't even had its public beta yet. How does Elysia know the plot?]
[Is Elysia a beta tester? Quick! Give us some spoilers!]
Seeing the comments, Elysia put away her earlier gentleness and revealed her usual playful expression, saying, "Unfortunately, I haven't had the chance to play the game in advance."
"However, I'm quite familiar with the producer of this game."
Suddenly, Elysia looked directly at the center of the camera, her deep gaze seeming to pierce through the screen and straight into Ye Ming's heart.
"What's going on? Elysia knows you?"
"Didn't you say you'd never heard of Elysia before?"
The girls' gazes followed Elysia's, all turning towards Ye Ming.
"I... I don't know..."
"Haha! Did I trick you?"
Elysia made a cute face and then said, "Was the game producer who was watching my stream just now scared?"
"Just kidding, we should be meeting for the first time, or at least that's the case for you."
"Oh... I really wanted to see your surprised expression."
Elysia's eyes were full of nostalgia, but the viewers in the chat didn't notice, and everyone was still teasing:
[Maybe the producer isn't even watching the stream.]
"If you say things like that to rain on my parade, I'm going to cry, you know."
The live stream continued, but Elysia no longer talked about Honkai Impact 3rd, and started chatting about food and makeup topics.
"It's getting late, we should get off work too."
"Ah! Shoot!"
Kiana suddenly jumped up, looking panicked. "My roommate is still waiting outside the studio! I forgot all about her!"
"What's she doing? Coming to do motion capture?"
"Not just motion capture, she's also here for an interview. She watched our game's PV and was so moved that she wants to become one of us."
"Moved by the game's PV..."
Hearing about Kiana's roommate, Makoto's expression suddenly became somewhat dazed.
"My sister is also a game enthusiast."
8. Mei, you don't want Kiana to get fired, do you?
"My sister is also a game enthusiast."
Saying this, Makoto sighed helplessly. "I wish she could be moved by a game and come out to work."
"Is Ei still holed up at home?"
A-Tzu obviously knew about Makoto's family situation and came over to check on her.
"Yeah, that child has all sorts of crafting skills, but she only wants to stay home and make game merchandise, and she hasn't sold many items yet."
Saying this, Makoto suddenly threw herself into A-Tzu's arms, saying enviously, "Nahida is so good, so obedient and sensible. Let me have her as my sister."
"Hehe~~ I won't give you that one."
Speaking of her sister Nahida, A-Tzu also had a happy expression on her face.
"Why don't we just call everyone to the company?" Ye Ming suggested.
"Ei goes without saying, she can start working right away. Nahida is so well-behaved, it shouldn't be a problem for her to come to the company, right?"
"Well... Nahida is usually alone at home, I am a little worried about her."
A-Tzu asked with a hint of shame, "Wouldn't it be a bother to everyone if she came to the company?"
"Not at all, Nahida is the most healing," Ganyu said with a look of enjoyment. "If I could hold Nahida and sleep during lunch break, I could work overtime until two in the morning."
"Alright, let's have Nahida come then. Work has been quite heavy these past few days, so let's have Ganyu work overtime until two in the morning for several days in a row."
"Huh? I, I was just making an example... Waaah!" Ganyu looked at A-Tzu with tears in her eyes, as if to say: If Nahida doesn't come, I'm really going to die.
"Ye Ming! I brought my roommate!" Just as everyone was mourning for Ganyu, Kiana pushed Mei into the office.
"Oh my~~" The first to be surprised was Makoto. Seeing Mei, Makoto felt like she was standing in front of a mirror.
Long purple hair, light purple eyes, and a face and figure very similar to Makoto's. In other words, she and her twin sister Ei were practically cut from the same mold.
"It's okay, Miss Mei is wearing glasses," A-Tzu saw what Makoto was thinking and clearly pointed out how to distinguish the two.
Kiana also added from the side, "And Mei can cook! And she's really good at it!"
