Working as a consultant in the Ultra Universe

"So...it's not a problem with my status as an Earth envoy?"

Gu Chen sat on the sofa with a frown, and once again asked Xing Yao for confirmation of the answer to this question.

"Well, let's just say that all the girls in my class are always saying they want to be my mom."

Xingyao rolled her eyes at Gu Chen again and said irritably.

"But there's no reason for that. If it weren't for her status as an Earth envoy, why would Inas behave that way?"

Gu Chen ignored Xing Yao's eye roll, but he couldn't quite understand Inas's behavior.

As the queen of an underground kingdom, even if she has only recently assumed the throne, she should not behave in this way.

Gu Chen was afraid that there might be some dark force at play here. After all, Xing Yao had once said that love is a terrible thing, sometimes belonging to positive energy and sometimes to negative energy.

With the sea of ​​negative energy currently in turmoil and the final darkness stirring up trouble within it, it's hard to say whether Inas might be influenced by the final darkness.

If so, and Inas developed an abnormal love for him, and then, unable to obtain that love, was ultimately influenced by darkness and went to extremes, then there would be a serious problem.

"First of all, you saved his life. I heard you say that you gave her one of those ornaments, right?"

Upon hearing this, Xingyao spoke up.

Gu Chen nodded. He didn't take the necklace back; he left it with Inas. Inas didn't return it either, as if she regarded it as a token of their love.

However, Gu Chen did not give such an accessory to Inas alone. He also gave one to Prime Minister Manabe and other people in important positions.

Although these accessories only retain basic defensive functions due to access restrictions, that is sufficient.

"Then, the underground world will need to cooperate and communicate with the surface world, and try to integrate into the entire human cultural sphere, right?"

Xingyao continued.

Gu Chen nodded in agreement.

"Look, isn't it obvious? You are quite charming, whether it's your figure, appearance, or social status, you are attractive enough to the opposite sex."

"Therefore, for Inas, you are her savior, an excellent marriage prospect, and someone who is also trying to help their subterranean humans overcome their fear of sunlight. What reason does she have not to be tempted?"

"No matter what, Inas is a woman. How many women in this era do you know who don't need to rely on others?"

Xingyao's string of words silenced Gu Chen completely.

Could it be that I'm just being paranoid?

Having traveled from the real world, Gu Chen has been in contact with mostly independent and self-reliant women of the new era. These women do not need to depend on men for their lives, so their way of thinking about emotional issues is completely different from that of women in the Showa era.

In the real world, being single is not a big deal for women, but in the Showa era, it seems to be a very serious matter for them. If they haven't gotten married by a certain age, they start to get anxious even before others say anything.

Inas has reached marriageable age, and although as the queen, no one dares to discuss these issues with her face-to-face yet, as she gets older, people will urge her to get married and have children.

After all, the kingdom's bloodline needs to continue, unless she wants the throne to fall into the hands of a collateral branch.

However, even if Inas wanted to by then, her ministers would not be willing, because it involves the issue of conflicting interests.

"Sigh, I hope I'm just overthinking it..."

After a long silence, Gu Chen sighed softly and decided to put the problem aside for the time being.

In any case, he will inevitably have to deal with Inas in the future, and he will have plenty of opportunities to observe closely whether Inas has been affected by the final darkness.

The only problem was that Gu Chen was having some trouble dealing with Inas's enthusiasm.

……

After that, a period of calm followed.

There were no monsters or invaders from outer space, nor any monsters or attacks from Earth's native inhabitants or other races.

Everything became peaceful, and even the darkness seemed to have stopped causing trouble.

However, the world did not calm down because of these things.

The discovery of the underground world unsurprisingly caused a huge stir worldwide, as people learned for the first time that a vast underground world existed on their planet.

This undoubtedly brought a huge surge in traffic to many science fiction works about the inner Earth, and the establishment of diplomatic relations between the surface world and the underground world has become a major event that has attracted worldwide attention.

In response, governments around the world have created a new program dedicated to broadcasting their diplomatic relations with the underground kingdoms, and, with Inas's permission, filming the customs and culture of the underground world.

In addition, after a period of discussion and consultation, a group of scientists also came from the surface world to the underground world to conduct corresponding research on the ecological environment of the underground world.

In return, the surface world invited scientists from the underground world to conduct activities on the surface world.

However, because the subterranean people fear sunlight, they only finalized cooperative projects with a few trustworthy countries on Gu Chen's advice and sent people to the surface world.

After all, for now, we should try to keep the fact that the underground people are afraid of sunlight a secret for as long as possible.

In these peaceful yet turbulent days, UGM continued its training and patrols as usual, always on guard against battles and challenges that could come at any time.

However, because of Gu Chen, the amoeba monster Amezha, which was supposed to appear as scheduled, did not even show up.

That's because after this space exploration project was proposed, Gu Chen argued his case and rejected it.

The general idea is that humans haven't even finished exploring our solar system yet, so isn't it a bit too hasty to go on to explore other star systems?

Therefore, without spaceships going to Amezha in the T28 Nebula, the amoeba creatures living there would not have been brought back to Earth.

This time, although humanity did not visit other star systems, a spaceship from another star system visited the solar system inhabited by humans, and after some exploration, it flew straight towards Earth.

In no time, he passed through the lunar base and the space station and entered the unprotected interior of Earth's atmosphere.

It was only then that the personnel at the lunar base and the space station realized what was happening and immediately reported the situation to UGM headquarters.

As for why it was reported to the UGM, it was naturally because the spaceship landed in a location within the UGM's jurisdiction.
