Off to School!
As we all know, Ms. Chen Xilumeng is a new idol with great potential. In just a few months since her debut, her popularity has already rivaled that of some veteran idols, and her agency has also benefited from the attention.
In fact, Brother Dawei is not only not relaxing and lying down, but is also extremely nervous.
You think moving to Sky Dome City is just for better development opportunities? Wrong! All the firm's funds have been poured into this relocation. You could say that Brother Dawei is gambling, betting that the firm can develop much faster in Sky Dome City.
Moreover, the market in Changkong City is limited; only by going to Sky Dome City can one open doors and gain opportunities for promotion.
Also... last time when Luming was drunk, she inadvertently mentioned that she wanted to buy Mihoyo's agency.
Given this young lady's extraordinary background, Brother Dawei strongly suspects that the firm's recent investments were secured through her connections.
(Eden smiled without saying a word)

"I see, so you even found Kalpas. Please allow me to express my sincerest gratitude." Eden's voice, filled with emotion, came from the phone, though fortunately maintaining her usual humility. "It was just a coincidence. If you really want to thank me, please unsubscribe..."
"That's out of the question~" Eden's voice suddenly became cheerful. "I will give you whatever you want, but it can't involve bets~ By the way, I gave you that card in a bit of a hurry last time and forgot to tell you. Don't take it out casually unless it's a critical moment. It would be too good if people mistakenly thought you were my illegitimate daughter... I mean, that would cause a lot of unnecessary trouble."
I strongly suspect that this Eden has been corrupted by Elysia. Fu Hua's Father, just for my sake, use Feather Crossing Dust on her!
Although I'm back to having enough money, I don't really like this kind of unrestrained spending. What if I run out of money again in the future? I'm not afraid of being poor forever, I'm afraid of suddenly becoming rich!
"I sent you some gifts, hoping they'll help you on your path to becoming an idol. That's all for today, I have to go to work. By the way, if you want to become a world-class idol, just training as Magical Girl isn't enough, you know. Do you remember the task I gave you before, Luming Lady?" The rich woman smiled happily and then hung up the phone.
Xing looked distressed. Her intuition told her that Eden was definitely trying to give her something to do again. Being an idol and Magical Girl was already annoying enough, were the other tasks for real?!
The girl slumped dejectedly on the table. The other puppets were scattered around the room awaiting instructions, and aside from those who were sleeping, charging, or slacking off... there didn't seem to be many left.
Xiaoyue jumped onto the table full of energy and encouraged, "Don't worry, my lord, this is a necessary trial. Just persevere..."
Before she could finish speaking, Little Te, who was charging, opened his eyes and knocked her down with a flying punch.
Fortunately, I'm quite curious. It seems that Anti-Entropy is much worse than Schicksal in terms of artificial intelligence. Xiaoyue's emotional activity is very realistic. That feeling of being a bit too mature doesn't seem to be simulated at all.
Little Te was initially cold and aloof, but due to his own growth and learning abilities, he began to show some signs of change while following her. The difference between the two is not small.
Perhaps it's because Schicksal obtained Ai-chan, this super artificial intelligence.
Looking at Ai-chan Hiyokomaru sleeping together, Little Xuan fell into deep thought. Is this really a super AI?
Outside the villa, on the lawn, Brother Jie was feeding his pets. He slammed the food bowl down on the ground and yelled at the trembling Crimson Kite's Wings and Guotie, "Eat up! Or I'll eat you up!"
PS: I'm glad I managed to recreate Hiyokomaru's chibi version.
The bird and bear exchanged a glance, both seeing a strong will to survive in each other's eyes. They lowered their heads and began to eat voraciously. The bird food and bear food tasted really good.
Seeing that the two beasts had eaten all the food he had made, Kalpas nodded in satisfaction. Just as he was about to cook for the two foodies who had just moved in, the doorbell rang.
Strange, nobody usually comes here. Those brats are at school. Who is it? Someone looking for trouble?
Brother Jie dragged the Guotie to the front door, and without caring whether she could understand or not, he instructed, "Watch my signals. If a bunch of suicidal bastards come, pounce on them. It's a bear, after all; just standing there should scare a few cowards to death. Understand?"
Guotie nodded blankly. Kalpas forcefully pulled open the heavy door, and shadows enveloped the man and the bear. They were both stunned for a moment before being engulfed by the pile of boxes.
Bang!!!
A mountain of boxes was piled up at the entrance. As Kalpas opened the door, they lost their support and collapsed, burying Kalpas and Guotie, who were unaware of what was happening.
Hearing the loud noise from the front door, Xing, who was chopping vegetables in the kitchen, ran out wearing an apron. Kane jumped out of the window, and Pardo quietly peeked out from the doorway to observe the situation.
As Xiaoyue was explaining physics to her, Little Te's eyes lit up, and as if receiving some kind of command, he pushed open the door and rushed out.
The deliveryman, who had painstakingly unloaded the last box from the truck, was dumbfounded. What happened? I didn't ring the doorbell. Did I accidentally bump into the box?
Just as the young man was dumbfounded, a thick, strong hand burst out of the ground—no, it burst out of the box—and grabbed him, nearly scaring him out of his wits.
Two red lights shone from the man's mask. Enraged, he grabbed the poor deliveryman and roared, "Hey kid, are you looking for death?"
"I... I'm so sorry! It was just an accident! Does Miss Chen Xilumeng live here? I'm here to deliver a package to her!" The deliveryman was terrified, but his professionalism allowed him to barely maintain his composure.
"Ah, you're looking for me?" The girl with the kitchen knife jumped over the box and came to the front door. Her stunningly beautiful face immediately stunned him. My God, there is such a beautiful girl in the world...
"Beautiful lady, please sign here, thank you. By the way, could you please leave a good review?"
Even fairies have to go through procedures!
"Okay, wait a minute, who sent this to me? The sender is... This is way too fast!!" Xing was a little shocked by Eden's speed. They had just said it on the phone and it had already arrived? I've only been here for a day!
"Okay, now we need to move them all inside..." The deliveryman looked at the pile of boxes with a troubled expression. Just as he was about to start working, the tall man pushed him aside. "Kid, once you're done delivering, get out of here. Don't get in the way."
"Ah?"
"What, you don't understand?"
The young man then came to his senses, quickly got into his car, and sped away.
Kane stared at the pile of boxes, speechless. "Luming must have been adopted by a very wealthy family. By the way, am I being kept by Luming now?"
Be confident; you were kept by someone from the very beginning.
Little Te jumped into the hill, rummaged through the pile of boxes and found the only one whose sender wasn't Eden, then handed it to Xing.
The red-haired doll blinked, and the two HOMU antennae on its head swayed restlessly, as if it wanted a reward.
"Eh, Lobster Doctor?" Xing opened the box with great anticipation. Tesla did not disappoint. Seeing the familiar yellow box and magenta box, the girl's eyes curved into crescents. New toy, GET!
Unfortunately, there's no Danger Trigger... I'll have to get ready and go check out the Jackal another day!
"Huh, why is this ID Core blank?" The girl opened the yellow box containing the driver and picked up the blank ID in confusion. The moment she touched it, a large number of files about Sachi Kaslana and Chen Xilumeng in the Desire Driver system's database were rapidly browsed.
In less than 0.1 seconds, ripples appeared on the blank ID, and a red fox logo slowly appeared.
Geats logo
"So it's generated based on the user. Seriously, am I just so destined to be with foxes?" Xing picked up the Extreme Fox Core, her excitement tinged with a hint of helplessness.
Opening the magenta box, the beginner's equipment was Magnum Buckle. Xing glanced at it disdainfully, thinking, "(Hey, Lobster Doctor, I heard from You Hui that the standard equipment for the Extreme Fox DX is Magnum Propeller plus a hammer, how come you only have a Magnum... Okay, the hammer is under the Magnum.)"
Fortunately, she was a little disappointed because she really liked the Extreme Fox's mount Propeller Vanguard, which was infinitely cooler than the Mechanical Creator.
Kane curiously approached, but as soon as he saw the Desire Driver itself, Kalpas grabbed his ear and dragged him to move boxes. "Hey, kid, what are you looking around for? Focus on your work, or you won't get any food!"
The miserable Kane couldn't understand why this uncle was so tolerant of Luming, but treated him like dirt. Was it just because Luming was a girl?
No, you have to blame your ancestors.
"Put it away for now, we can play with it sometime later." In a great mood Idol Lady patted Little Te's head, turned around, picked her up, and went inside to continue cooking!
After finishing our meal, Xing started opening the blind boxes—
"So many clothes... I already have a lot of clothes, I don't need to buy any more. But why are they all dresses? Wait, why are there women's swimsuits too?!"
"Piano, violin, guitar, erhu, suona... let me get dizzy for a bit first."
Wait a minute, I think I know all of these.
Through the memories of her Idol Natasha, Sachi has not only mastered etiquette but also various musical instrument playing skills, but since they are borrowed from someone else, she still needs to practice a bit.
"Hey, when did I get these degree certificates? And they're signed by Chen Xilumeng?!"
Looking at the fake certificates Eden had made for him, Xing felt a pang of bitterness. In his past life, he had tried his best, devoted his time and effort, but could not obtain those things, and now he had them in his hands...
"Hey, what's with this acceptance letter?!"
The girl picked up the complimentary girls' school uniform and instantly felt a chill run down her spine. When the mission was assigned, one of the tasks was for her to be active as a school idol... Was Eden serious about what he said when he was drunk?!
I just finished my high school entrance exams, and now you want me to go back to hell? I'd rather die than do that!
As she was thinking this, her sharp eyes spotted another note inside. It read, "I've found the best high school in Sky Dome City for you. Don't refuse, or I'll send you to a world-class girls' high school~"
If this rich woman weren't Flame-Chasers, I would really like to give her a tattoo.
"Backpack, notebooks, pens... you've prepared quite a lot, but why are they pink?"
"So many VIP cards! Didn't you think it would be hard for me to find them when I need them?"
"Wow!!!"
With a mix of trepidation and excitement, the girl opened the box, and the items that came into view made her eyes widen in surprise.
"A globally limited edition ultra-premium perfume! Something that money can't necessarily buy! Cough cough, it's definitely not something I wanted to wear, with my constitution, why would I need perfume?"
Wow! Limited edition face mask! I remember this one was really expensive!
"Oh my god, this is the bag I've always wanted!"
"..."
"Fine, I'm not pretending anymore. I just like these things now, so what?!"
Congratulations! Fortunately, my classmate has finally realized that he has completely fallen into female form. Congratulations! Ahem, when he turns back into a boy, his mentality is probably normal.
Today, Xing, who thought she was no longer surprised by anything, had her worldview refreshed once again.
Those boxes of glittering gold and silver jewelry made her eyes sparkle as well. It's human nature to love gemstones, so you can't blame her.
The expensive clothes that looked so valuable gave her a sense of unreal illusion.
Needless to say, Eden perfectly embodies the phrase "rich and powerful."
What, you're saying you don't feel anything when you read this passage?
Imagine you have the world's most expensive figurines laid out in front of you, piled up like a mountain of garbage. That would give you an idea of how excited you are right now.
"Hehe, a rare Arahanto model..."
Yes, boys' nature hasn't changed.
——The dividing line between Idol Lady trying on new clothes——
Note: Sachi's preference for contrasting colors is not due to Build, but rather because he personally likes asymmetrical color schemes.
After a day of being tormented by Kalpas, Kane rubbed his aching back and arrived at the warehouse door of Luming's new group.
Because she had too much stuff, Kalpas specially granted her an empty warehouse, the kind specifically for storing miscellaneous items.
Kane pushed open the door and entered, intending to tell his partner about what he had seen the night before last. "Luming, yesterday..."
The cheerful young woman was getting ready in front of the mirror, completely unaware of his arrival. The beautiful scenery and the stunning woman—the clothes designed by a world-class designer perfectly complemented this breathtakingly beautiful girl—created the following effect:
Master Sen dragged Kane, who was drooling all over the place, out and gave him a severe beating.
Note: Kane's immunity to Sachi comes from the trials of spending a long time together, but if he doesn't treat Sachi as Luming, his resistance will fail.
Afterwards, Idol Lady couldn't help but sigh that Eden had given her so many that she didn't know which one to wear. Oh well, she decided to pick a few she liked first.
"Hey, witch, it's already dark, aren't you coming out for dinner?"
"Huh? Has a day already passed?"
—Thankfully, Eden created the dividing line for Kane's admission certificate; sharing is better than keeping it to yourself—
At Sky Dome City No. 1 High School, the students of Class 1 of Grade 1 were extremely excited today because they learned that a transfer student was coming today.
It wouldn't normally be a big deal; those who can attend this school either have connections or are extremely wealthy. But this time, it's said that a teenage idol came.
What's your background?
Many people investigated the matter, and the results sent chills down their spines. They all warned their friends never to mess with that girl, no matter how beautiful she was.
Many people were still in a daze when a clear and melodious voice, like that of a lark, came and woke them up.
"Hello everyone, my name is Chen Xilumeng. Starting today, I will be your classmate."
She gave a brief self-introduction, saying, "I am also an idol. Due to work, I may spend very little time at school. Please understand."
After speaking, the girl quieted down and walked to the seat the teacher pointed out. Her small feet in white stockings and leather shoes made a crisp sound as they stepped on the ground. Everyone was watching her, each with their own thoughts.
"A cool and aloof older woman? I like that."
"It's probably an act. She's very approachable during her live streams. It's probably just nervousness."
"Hehe, Luming, I never thought I'd be sitting in the same classroom as her..."
"Nice figure, pretty face, and that aura—I love it!"
"Shh, keep your voice down. This guy is famous for his good looks and fighting prowess."
"Tch, even if she's strong, how many can she take on at once? This girl needs a lesson! Hey, watch me, what, I can't handle this... Damn, her eyes are terrifying..."
"Watching her live stream, do people with such extensive knowledge really need to go to school?"
"Didn't they say they wouldn't stay at school for long?"
The crowd was buzzing with discussion, and even Kane, who had just entered, didn't notice. The embarrassed young man hurriedly sat down in the empty seat next to his partner, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
"Who is this kid?"
"She's a friend, I think. They seem to know each other."
"Boy friend?"
"It's unlikely. Look at how cowardly he is. And you can't tell anything from Luming's eyes."
"Could it be a bodyguard?"
Does Luming need protection?
Kane, bruised and battered, was very upset. He thought that running away from home would mean he wouldn't have to go to school, but Luming turned the tables on him. "Damn it! Why are you dragging me to school?"
The crowd murmured amongst themselves, ignoring Haser who had just entered. The gangster's daughter, with her fiery temper, couldn't stand it. She snatched the blackboard eraser and slammed it onto the podium, her hand going numb from the impact. But as long as she made a show of it, that was enough.
The students' eyes involuntarily turned to awe, because they had all heard of Mr. Chen's legend to some extent.
After Mihoyo's agency arrived in Sky Dome City, at a certain hotel—
"The ten-year period has come to an end. Welcome back to Sky Dome City, Brother!"
The biggest gangster boss in Sky Dome City booked out the venue today, inviting all his cronies to a welcome-back party for his retired boss, implying that if you wanted this seat, your underlings could return it to you anytime.
"Hey, no need for such a grand affair, a small gathering of a few will suffice. Ha, I knew I wasn't wrong about you back then, you really are a talent!" Mr. Chen patted the bald man's head with a cheerful laugh, and the man blushed like a schoolboy being praised.
"I'm here mainly because of my precious daughter. I told my brothers to keep an eye on her, and if anyone dares to lay a hand on her, I'll break their arms and legs!"
"Alright, boss, don't worry, I guarantee Miss can do whatever she wants in Sky Dome City!"
"Also, my daughter is now an idol at an agency called Mihoyo. You should have someone keep an eye on her and give her some preferential treatment if necessary... I'm not asking you to go and cause trouble or loot. I don't want her to inherit my position. Let her do whatever she wants."
"So, boss, you mean to secretly eliminate the potential threat from that firm?"
"Clever, and also, there's a girl inside named Chen Xilumeng, that person—"
"We absolutely must not provoke them!"
——Come back, come back——
Just as the teacher turned on the projector and was about to begin the lesson, an untimely phone call rang in the classroom.
"Sorry, I forgot to turn on vibrate." Xing awkwardly raised her hand to indicate that she was calling from outside the classroom. "Hey, Brother Dawei, someone wants me to shoot a clothing ad again? Is this one serious? Okay, I'll be right there."
She hurriedly asked the teacher for leave, and Idol Lady left amidst the stunned gazes of the entire class. Well, she definitely wouldn't stay long.
Kane was on the verge of tears. "And what about me? Luming, don't leave me alone in hell!"
Miss Chen was sleeping in class, was completely unaware of this.
