"Your late-night snack has arrived and I'm eating it now."

"It smells so good!!"

Finally, there's a photo of the Her Highness the Princess holding an Orleans roasted chicken leg in one hand and making a peace sign with the other.

Hmm, she's still wearing her signature outfit— the Twelve-layered robe —which makes the photo look a bit odd, even though she's still very pretty.

"Uh (⊙o⊙)..."

Mo Yi also quickly replied to the other party's message.

"I'm glad you like it."

Kaguya sat at her computer desk, surrounded by food that Reisen had brought back from her delivery service.

She wasn't lying; this truly was the most delicious thing she had ever eaten in all her tens of thousands of years, surpassing even the offerings from the gods.

Of course, the medicinal effects of the Late Night Diner do not exist. The related rules will dissipate after leaving the Late Night Diner, and the food made by Xiao Huo is not intentionally given such special effects.

(Back in the lab, Lord Green Otto enthusiastically began his research, only to be utterly bewildered to discover that these foods, aside from being rich in nutrients, contained no special substances or energy. After studying them for quite some time, he could only guess that 'it must be something that his current technology couldn't observe.' After all, it was something that affected the mind, emotions, and soul, which were precisely the things currently being observed. In short, Lord Green Otto temporarily halted his mischievous endeavors because of his research on Xiao Huo's cooking.)

Delicious food is important, of course, but what's even more important is that the first thing Mo Yi thought of after discovering he could contact Reisen was to send her food. Thinking of this, the Her Highness the Princess couldn't help but feel happy. It seems that the other party still cares about her quite a bit.

Yes, I need to keep working hard, study diligently, and become an all-powerful inventor to help the other person, and even travel to their world. (Lord Green Otto: What a coincidence, you also want to become a great inventor?)

People change; it just depends on whether they encounter someone or something worth changing for them.

Houraisan Kaguya is the same. Although she used to stay up all night online, playing games, chatting in groups, and browsing forums, she has changed now!

Of course, why did Kaguya choose to change her focus to studying instead of continuing to develop her mystical powers?

She's already tens of thousands of years old, and there's clearly not much room for improvement in her own power. After all, the strength of one's own power is limited by the strength of the world, and breaking through that limit isn't a simple matter. (Unless she's the protagonist.)

But the power that comes from wisdom is different from the power that comes from one's physical body; it can grow indefinitely.

Kaguya currently possesses otherworldly knowledge textbooks from the Super God Academy world, which she obtained from Mo Yi. For the Gensokyo world, which is still limited to Earth and the Moon, the discovery of knowledge about the cosmic Super God Academy is undoubtedly ahead of its time.

Since personal strength was growing too slowly, Kaguya naturally chose to increase her wisdom and knowledge. Mysticism and technology, in the end, are both means to change oneself and the world; the goal is the same, and as long as the goal is achieved, there is not much difference.

She initially studied hard because she wanted to show off in front of Mo Yi and guide Mo Yi in his studies.

The purpose of this was to create a machine that could travel to Mo Yi's location.

Finally, she discovered that she had so many rivals. If she didn't recharge herself, her absolute advantage might be overtaken. Therefore, Kaguya chose to improve herself.

Having already maxed out her appearance and demeanor, she could only improve other aspects.

Hmm, then she discovered that she really was a jack-of-all-trades. She had put skill points into almost everything imaginable, including languages, politics and economics, medicine, mysticism, tea ceremony illustration, kendo, and interpersonal skills, and had even mastered them.

After all, living a long time without finding something to do would be very boring. Compared to Yagokoro Eirin's love for medicine, Kaguya was curious about everything. So after learning everything she could think of, she found that there was nothing left to interest her.

Finally, they discovered games as a new way to pass the time, and so for the last hundred years, they have devoted their attention to games.

After considering how to improve herself and make Mo Yi unable to leave her side, Kaguya decided to learn more scientific knowledge and become a great inventor!

Although Mo Yi didn't want to save the world like Kallen did, and didn't need her as an equipment supplier to provide various artifacts, Kaguya knew that Mo Yi had common cheat codes. She knew that he would definitely encounter various difficulties when he conquered the game in the future, and that would be the time for her, Doraemon Kaguya, to step in.

Imagine Kaguya, a woman who is equally adept in various social situations (possessing stunning beauty and exceptional social skills, though she usually keeps it hidden, living a carefree life), in the kitchen (when she gets serious, her culinary skills are masterful), and in her private quarters (having spent a long time in the online world, Kaguya has long since mastered a string of vulgarities, and her theoretical knowledge far surpasses that of Mo Yi). She is also multi-talented, a wealthy landowner with considerable personal strength, and immortal. There's no need to worry about her fading into a haggard old woman after ten years of marriage. In fact, she wouldn't lose to anyone in her career, especially when it comes to games, Kaguya believes she can't lose to anyone.

Now he has also maxed out the important skill of Great Inventor, becoming Mo Yi's most reliable person (equipment supplier)!

Can other people do the above?

Tell me, how could I, Houraisan Kaguya, possibly lose?! (The great inventor, Lord Green Otto, is staring at me.)

What's most terrifying is that Houraisan Kaguya is also a proactive and ambitious young woman who constantly strives to improve herself. Thinking of this, Kaguya couldn't help but feel sorry for the Kiana, Pikachu, and Vampire Cat around Mo Yi.

All I can say is that with such an overwhelming advantage, her basic attacks are like her ultimate skill; my Kaguya is simply ruthless!

Hearing that Kaguya was satisfied with the food cooked by Xiao Huo, Mo Yi felt relieved. He had always been helped by Kaguya, and even though they were good friends, Mo Yi still felt embarrassed.

Only through mutual giving and receiving can friendship last.

Finally, I've found something I can do to repay Her Highness the Princess. That's wonderful.

After chatting with the Her Highness the Princess for a while, Mo Yi still asked the question that had been on his mind the most: Is Reisen still alive?

She's the one who criticizes Kaguya 'Kaguya face!

Although in Mo Yi's heart, the Her Highness the Princess was the most perfect best friend, Mo Yi never doubted her 'mischievousness' and 'vengefulness'.

"Cough cough—"

Mo Yi typed and asked:

"Is Reisen still alive? You didn't really catch her and turn her into chopsticks soup, did you?"

In fan works, it is said that after each battle with her nemesis Fujiwara no Mokou, Kaguya would cook the things that fell off during their fight into a soup.

PS: Episode 85: Mei Chapter 1.30: A worried Mo Yi was taken to Miss Mei's house. Of course, nothing strange happened as Mo Yi had imagined. When Mo Yi asked Miss Mei what she wanted to do, she always said, "No rush, no rush." Then, Mo Yi sat there anxiously as Miss Mei prepared a lavish lunch, even lighting two candles in broad daylight—a true candlelight lunch. "Let's talk after lunch—" Miss Mei said gently, "You can't go without replenishing your energy." Mo Yi: "..." Miss Mei's words only made Mo Yi more uneasy. Under Miss Mei's attentive care, Mo Yi finally finished lunch and even lay down for a while. Miss Mei finally revealed what she needed help with. "Actually, I made some new clothes and wanted someone to check if they looked good, so I wanted to ask you for help Mo Yi." Mo Yi: "..." So that's how it is. It seems I was just scaring myself all along.

Chapter 196: Never Offend Kaguya

Upon hearing Mo Yi mention his pet rabbit Reisen, Kaguya glanced at the area out of sight of the camera. There, Reisen was bound hand and foot and hanging in mid-air, her mouth stuffed with a sock, only able to make whimpering sounds.

Upon hearing Mo Yi mention her rabbit, Kaguya's first thought was...

Could it be that Mo Yi hasn't given up on his own rabbit yet?

Or rather, after Mo Yi saw the rabbit that had been hidden for so long, his restless heart began to awaken.

I used to watch "Empresses in the Palace" and complain about how childish Kaguya. I thought that if I didn't give Mo Yi a chance to meet Reisen, nothing would happen that was beyond her expectations. I never expected that such an unexpected thing would happen.

Even now, Kaguya still remembers what Mo Yi once told her: the character she liked most in Gensokyo from Gensokyo was Alice Megatron. However, after her recent "The Death of the Honest" mental pollution project, Kaguya has seen the unnatural look in Mo Yi 'Mo Yi eyes when he hears the name Alice.

In other words, Alice Megatron was defeated.

Second place went to her own rabbit, Reisen Kaguya thought, "She's my pet, what could she possibly do?"

So they let her go, and the third place went to Sanae Higashiya.

A dark version of the game featuring Kogasa Tatara is also in development, and a brand new game will be released once the Death of the Honest series is completed.

Next up are Remilia and Komeiji Satori.
