When Bronya was a child, she told White Seele) that she would protect her for life, but after she became rebellious as an adult, she still ended up working at Divine Land Chuang Company.

When Xing was little, she said she wanted to be the boss for life, but she's always been beaten down by Bronya.

"We've always been like this since we were little..."

Elysia felt somewhat insecure and a little guilty.

"Didn't you already breach the contract?"

Black Seele ruthlessly exposed her.

Elysia paused for a moment, her tone tinged with sadness. "I saw people joking like that in high school, and later I found out that they were actually siblings."

The older sister takes a community registration form, tricks her younger brother or sister into signing it, and then claims they are married. They can then divorce that same afternoon and swindle the younger sibling's New Year's money or secret stash.

Even if her parents found out, they would mostly just scold her for being silly. But Elysia forgot one thing: others could do this because they were real siblings.

Black Seele opened her mouth, wanting to say something sarcastic, but seeing Elysia's slightly lowered head, she swallowed her words.

"Elysia." She changed the subject, her voice drifting lazily on the wind. "If one day, all it takes for you to do is pull the trigger on An Yu to save the world... what would you do?"

There was no immediate response. Black Seele stretched lazily, leaned against the slightly frail back of the electric scooter, and looked up at the azure sky.

Elysia, in my dreams I truly hope that you and An Yu can live happily ever after. You are both so radiant, and you take care of and support each other.

"Why... does the difficult task of saving the world always fall on my shoulders?"

Elysia didn't remain silent for long; her voice was filled with deep confusion, and even a hint of grievance.

Why does she always have to make these cruel choices? She wants to be impulsive just this once, she wants to stand by the person she cares about without hesitation! But she can't...

Moreover, why did she have to know the plot? Why did she have to know the optimal solution?

If you know nothing, and just watch others work hard and take on responsibilities like an ordinary person, isn't that good enough?

"I know I'm a big kid now, I'm not a little kid anymore."

"But I really don't know how to solve these kinds of problems... I've never been smart since I was a child, there are many things I just don't know or understand, but why is it that the more I try not to think about them, the more problems come my way?"

Don't you think this is very unfair?

But she is Elysia, and in dreams she is a goddess; her mission was destined from the moment she was born.

Isn't this kind of thing incredibly unfair?

She didn't want this power at all; she just wanted to be an ordinary person who loved to laugh and could laugh freely, but she couldn't.

Because she knew the optimal solution, losing that sense of nobility in her heart would cause her to slide into the abyss and become a monster; she had to force herself to keep going.

Elysia isn't stupid. Even if she were, after experiencing so many things, how could she not understand anything?

During her time Herrscher of Sentience the Void, she genuinely wanted to accept everything and simply win once, but after the Herrscher revealed the truth, she still couldn't bring herself to do it.

"You all always say I cling to Xiaoyu... but we've always been like this since we were little. My grades may not be as good as hers, but I've always tried my best and never given up!"

"I didn't even have a single friend growing up because I knew I wasn't very talented. I thought it would be good if the two of us supported each other. But when I met Kevin and the others in college, and that shared dream that connected our destinies, I was... really happy. I felt like I had friends."

"Xiaoyu always stands by my side unconditionally. When I found out he was secretly saving money, I felt really bad too. So I wanted to play a joke, like other people do, to test whether the relationship between the siblings had deteriorated!"

"And I can also work part-time later, so I won't have to watch Xiaoyu struggle with tuition and living expenses all by herself."

"But I always make mistakes... You can laugh at me all you want, I won't let go anyway. Xiaoyu is always on my side, she won't blame me for being stupid, and she never looks down on me."

--But what if all the terrible things you experienced in your dream were actually caused by An Yu?

Black Seele suddenly felt as if something was blocking her throat, and she couldn't make a sound.

And Elysia, do you know why An Yu's life slowly turned into something you don't understand?

Not many people in the entire Anti-Entropy know about this, but Black Seele is one of the few who knows what An Yu has been doing lately.

An Yu has even gradually recreated the world in her dreams at a near 1:1 scale.

The electric scooter slowly came to a stop by the roadside. Elysia braced herself on one leg, raised her hand and forcefully wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, then lowered her head and remained silent.

Black Seele handed her a tissue.

"Sorry, I made you laugh."

Elysia's eyes were a little red. She stopped next to the trash can and quickly blew her nose.

I really don't know what these human organs are connected. When I'm sad, I get a runny nose and tears.

"It's okay. You two siblings grew up together since you were little. You're not even blood relatives, so it's normal for you to rely on and be attached to each other."

"It's not attachment!" Elysia retorted instinctively.

Black Seele neither denied nor agreed; she simply handed over a few more tissues.

"Elysia, calm down. We're not children anymore; life goes on."

It was rare for Black Seele to utter a single human word, Elysia quickly calmed herself down. Today was her first day at work, and it wouldn't look good for her to have such red eyes.

The electric scooter set off again, but Elysia started having some doubts halfway through. Black Seele asked her to calm down, wondering if she was afraid An Yu would beat her up.

After all, it was just the two of them on the way, so the only one who could make her cry must be Black Seele. However, she quickly dismissed the thought, considering that Black Seele hadn't mocked her earlier.

Reson Studio wasn't far from where An Yu lived. From a distance, Elysia could see a figure leaning casually against a motorcycle, standing upright.

However, the other party was not alone.

Volume 1: Chapter 192 (190) Do you think I'm an idiot?

The morning sunlight gilded the Reson Studio building, and An Yu leaned against his motorcycle, his shadow stretched long, his eyelids slightly lowered.

"Hey hey hey~ Senbei~ Were you waiting for me?"

A lively voice broke the silence as Ling skipped into the company. Although Reson Studio didn't have any unspoken rules about arriving an hour early, she gradually began to like the company's atmosphere.

The older sister commented on this. "She's lost her mind."

"No."

An Yu raised her eyelids, saw the lively little girl who had gotten in through the back door, and shook her head mercilessly.

"How heartless!"

Ling drew out her words, feigning disappointment.

"But, Senbei~" She took a few steps closer and asked curiously, "Was Anti-Entropy's anniversary celebration fun?"

The little girl's eyes sparkled; she wanted to see it for herself, but as a newly hired, non-permanent employee, she obviously couldn't enjoy this benefit.

Not to mention that Reson Studio is not theoretically part of Anti-Entropy, although everyone knows it is a subsidiary of Anti-Entropy, but Bronya doesn't acknowledge it.

An Yu recalled her life from the past few days, first letting out a subconscious sigh, then a smile tugged at the corners of her lips.

"It's actually quite fun."

The anniversary celebration was indeed quite fun. Thinking about it, these few days at Anti-Entropy seem to have taken up almost half of my time over the past two weeks.

"For example—" Ling tugged at her collar, raising her hands high. "Everyone! Shout out my name!"

An Yu:...1

He looked helplessly at this clown.

"An--Yu!!!" Qiu

Ling lowered her voice, mimicking the fans' enthusiastic shouts, but ultimately didn't dare to actually yell—she wasn't that awesome yet.

"The video has already been uploaded?"

An Yu remained silent for a while, already thinking about what she would face when she returned to the company.

"After all, it broke the world record."

Ling leaned against the wall, her tone tinged with pride.

Since I arrived early today, there's no need to rush to clock in.

"My sister was stunned when she saw the video."

"And what about your sister?"

"Um."

Ling nodded, her face suddenly becoming serious, even her accent disappearing. "My sister told me never to make you angry at the company, otherwise, with your explosive power, you could kick me into a pulp."

An Yu couldn't help but chuckle softly.

Ling, however, remained serious and said, "Senior, this isn't funny."

Even if you say that, I still find it hilarious.

An Yu shook her head and changed the subject. "How have you been feeling at the company these past few days? Are you getting used to the work rhythm at Reson Studio?"

Ling pondered for a moment, "It's alright, anyway, it's not much different from before, except that instead of asking the senior for help, I've had to ask my sister to Ghost Possession multiple times."

"Remote control systems are truly the greatest invention of the 21st century!" Ling exclaimed.

"But are you waiting for Bronya here, senior?"

Ling looked around, still not understanding who An Yu was waiting for, but she was indeed a pleasing sight from a distance.

An Yu shook her head. "Wait for my sister."

"Fairy Miss!!!"

Ling's eyes lit up. "Will Fairy Miss be coming today too?"

"Okay, you'll be colleagues from now on."

Ling blinked again, cupping her small hands to her chest. "Do I work with my idol all day long?"

I feel incredibly lucky to have joined Reson Studio! Luckily, I have four years of work experience, otherwise I would have been in big trouble if I hadn't passed the interview.

"By the way, is Fairy Miss also responsible for writing code?"

We programmers are truly amazing! Indeed, coding is the right direction for the future!

An Yu was silent for a moment, then slowly uttered a few words: "Her job is to be beautiful."

Ling was taken aback. What did that mean? Image and brand?

Fairy Miss is indeed her idol, but is it appropriate to have a streamer serve as the face of a company, especially a promising company like Reson Studio?

"I can't say for sure right now, but soon this will be all over the company group chat, and then you'll know."

An Yu covered her forehead. Although there were indeed many benefits to having mentally ill people join companies, the tax reduction was not actually that significant. However, most companies wouldn't exclude such people from joining.

Moreover, Elysia is truly capable of being incredibly beautiful.

"By the way, Ling, things won't be so leisurely for the next few days."

An Yu reminded her softly.

After all, he hadn't wasted his time. He knew everything that could be figured out in the game, as well as all the plans and personnel that appeared before the Eight Laws.

Now he's in charge of the world-building for his game, and it's already been copied. He'll write down the entire outline of the game, and the plot planners' work efficiency will also increase. In the end, the programmers will definitely be the most tired.

However, a raise is definitely in order. After all, if a plan can be completed ahead of schedule, it's a win-win situation.

"I understand! After all, Bronya has brought in quite a few partners this time, so she's bound to be busy."

"It's just a pity, I've practiced bass for so long..."

Although it's only been less than a week, she was originally planning to do something big and make a name for herself.

An Yu gently patted her head. "Don't be sad, when the preview comes out, there will definitely be scenes featuring us... the Songs of the Past Band."

"Hi!" Ling stood at attention and looked around.

"Is Fairy Miss like Kiana- senpai, arriving every day at noon?"

Waaah, I feel like I'm running out of things to say if we keep talking.

"It'll be soon. Knowing my older sister's personality, she definitely won't be late on the first day."

Just like the first day of school before, Elysia was always excited and looked forward to her new semester, even though she would soon be caught up in endless studying and tutoring.

However, instead of her older sister, An Yu was greeted by an unexpected tall and beautiful woman.

Mei hesitated for a moment. "Were you waiting for me?"

Oh, she hadn't expected her junior to be so sensible.

"No, that's not it." An Yu shook her head, her expression complicated. "Besides, Mei- senpai, when you say 'relax,' you don't mean coming to Reson Studio to do unpaid volunteer work, do you?"
