Reborn Girl, Journey to All Worlds

Green tremblingly opened the door of the activity room, and saw a girl with purple hair, blue eyes, and twin tails wearing a Millennium school uniform appeared at the door.

"He's here! One of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Student Council! Also known as the cold-blooded arithmetic user! Yuuka, the Student Council Accountant!"

Tao directly finished the self-introduction on behalf of the girl named Yuka, but this self-introduction sounded... a little bit childish.

"Could you please not mention me and my work in such a weird tone, like I'm a monster? It's very rude."

The girl's face changed when she heard that, and a big well-shaped character seemed to appear on her forehead.

"Well, isn't this good too~"

Watching the friendly interaction between the two, Xue, who was originally standing in the blind spot behind Teacher Xia Lai, moved sideways and stood out with a smile on her face.

"!"

The moment she saw Qingxue's appearance, the girl named Yuka couldn't help but be stunned.

“…Senior An?”

The girl asked tentatively, and Xue naturally responded.

"Don't be surprised, it's me, Yuuka, long time no see~"

"It's really you, Senior, but why are you..."

After being surprised, a trace of surprise appeared on the girl's face. Wasn't her predecessor already...

"It's a long story, but the short of it is that I returned safely."

Hearing this, the girl nodded.

"I'm glad you're okay. By the way, why are you here, Senior?"

"Well... after all, I'm Xia Laihe's assistant now, so it makes sense for me to be here, right?"

"I see...it makes sense indeed."

Looking at the two people who were so familiar with each other, the Taolu sisters couldn't help but look puzzled. Why is Yuuka, one of the four kings of the student council, so familiar with Senior An!

"Are you and Yuuka also familiar with each other, An?"

Although Teacher Xia Lai was not confused, she was genuinely curious.

"Well, after all, I used to be a know-it-all in the millennium. I knew most of the people back then."

"That's true." Teacher Xia Lai expressed his understanding.

"Oh, I almost forgot, hello teacher."

Yuka didn't forget Teacher Xia Lai and greeted him.

"Hello, Yuuka."

“…Ah, I never thought our next meeting would be like this.”

Yuka looked helpless.

"Let's get down to business first... Xiao Tao."

Tao was startled when she heard Yuuka calling her name.

"You're really persistent. To prevent the game development team from disbanding, you even called Xia Lai over."

"But none of this means anything."

Yuka's tone changed.

"It's true that Xia Lai is directly under the Federation Student Union, but so what...even if the president suddenly returns, it will be useless!"

"Because the operation of the club is managed by the student union of each college."

"The disbanding of the game development department is a done deal, and no one can stop it."

"Ah, that's not certain yet!"

Tao immediately refuted Yuka's words.

"Didn't you say that if we could recruit the required number of people, or if we achieved some outstanding results in the millennium..."

"...If you can do that, that's great. If you can't, we'll disband, cancel the funds, and seal off the activity room. I should have made that clear yesterday, right?"

As the accountant of the Millennium Student Council, Yuuka naturally would not deny what she said.

"Not only do you not have enough members, but you haven't done anything to prove yourselves in over a year."

"Since it's already like this, you won't object to just disbanding, right?"

Yuuka's sharp gaze made Tao and Midori feel creepy. The twin girls were silent for a few seconds before continuing their rebuttal.

"...I have objections! There are many! We are working very hard on club activities!"

"So, what's it called... uh, right, we require a soft touch treatment!"

Hearing Tao's words, Xue couldn't help laughing out loud. What a sweet way to handle the situation. Tao is a little bit mature.

"It should be handled with discretion... And what did you say just now? Trying very hard?"

Yuka was speechless at first, then her expression suddenly changed.

"Stop messing around!"

"Why did you build a pachinko park in the millennium, decorating it like a casino, and then attack the Ancient History Research Society under the pretext of searching for retro game consoles..."

Listening to Yuuka recounting the "crimes" of the game development department one by one, Xue was at a loss for words for a moment. These millennial juniors are really brave...

"Since you raise an objection, then defend yourself!"

Faced with Yuka's powerful aura, Tao Lian began to stutter when speaking.

"Yes, sometimes, we should value the intention more than the results..."

"Humph, I don't want to hear those losers' excuses."

"Didn't you ask us to make excuses?"

"Alright, alright, both of you calm down, calm down."

Seeing the tension between the two sides, Xue finally couldn't bear to listen anymore.

"senior…"

"...In short, your organization's behavior of defrauding funds is unacceptable to us and will only damage Millennium's reputation."

Tao and Midori looked at Yuki, while Yuuka composed herself.

"Because of you, those who want to carry out serious activities will not receive financial support."

"So, if you insist that your club activities are meaningful... then prove it to me."

"Proof...?" Tao Lu asked in confusion.

“I have said many times that as long as meaningful results are achieved, we will withdraw the disbandment order.”

"Ah, like winning a prize in a competition or something?"

Midori, who had been silent for a long time, spoke.

"Exactly, just like a baseball team advancing to nationals and the engineering department submitting new inventions."

"The game development department should also have various related competitions to participate in."

"If you can't complete this task, please vacate the activity room and throw away all these wastes."

“…No, call them waste…”

Tao retorted loudly.

"If it's not scrap? What is it?"

“…Yes, yes…”

Tao hesitated for a long time and found that she didn't know what to say.

“…Tsk, got it. We’ll answer with results.”

Tao was silent for a moment, then looked at Yuuka with a determined look.

"oh……?"

"Besides, we are all ready!"

"Eh!"

“Really? Is this true?!”

Yuka was stunned for a moment, and Midori beside her was instantly confused. How could she not know that she was already prepared?

"Xiaolu, what are you surprised about?"

Tao gave Lu a speechless look.

"Anyway, we in the game development department now have a secret weapon."

"We're going to use it to enter this year's 'Millennium Awards'... and then launch our new game - Saiden 2... The full name is 'Final Goddess Legend Sword 2'!"

"Millennium Prize... I haven't heard of it in ages~"

When it comes to the so-called Millennium Award, Xue Na definitely has a say.

"Millennium Award?" Teacher Xia Lai looked puzzled. What the hell is this?

"Simply put, it's the biggest competition of the millennium. Hundreds of societies will submit their results. By the way..."

Xue's mouth corners curled up slightly.

“…I and everyone in the engineering department were among the grand prize winners.”

Xue's words stunned everyone except Yuka.

"Ann, aren't you from the Ministry of Truth?"

"I forgot to mention this before, I'm also the Deputy Director of the Engineering Department, so there's no conflict between the two."

"…Fine."

Teacher Xia Lai has gradually become accustomed to Xue's outrageous behavior. As a fellow time traveler, this student of his is much better than him.

"The Ministry of Engineering and the Ministry of Truth?"

"Oh, yes, you were a student in the millennium when you were in junior high school~"

“I see…”

Tao and Lu nodded. It turned out that Xue-senpai was actually a senior from the same school as them...

"Yuuka, please give the game development department some more time. I believe that Momo and Midori will be able to achieve real results."

"Yeah, Yuuka, trust them again."

"this…"

Hearing that her seniors and teachers had spoken for the game development department, Yuka naturally couldn't just refuse outright.

“…Okay, since Senior An and the teacher have spoken for you, I’ll wait for you a little longer.”

"There are only two weeks left until the Millennium Prize. I hope you can achieve real results during this time."

After saying that, Yuka said goodbye to Xue and Teacher Xia Lai, and then left the activity room of the game development department.

"..."

"……elder sister……"

After watching Yuuka leave, Midori looked at Tao.

"Although the probability is low, rather than making games, shouldn't we put our hopes on recruiting members?"

"But we've been trying for almost a month... and no one is willing to join us."

Tao shook her head, her expression becoming much more serious.

"I really don't want to be treated like a fool by people like that anymore, like, 'Pfft! Even VR games are so outdated these days, why are you still playing retro games?'"

"..."

Green is silent. Who wants to be treated as a fool for no reason?

"Yuuka, you despicable girl! You actually took advantage of us, the friendless otakus! I will never forgive you!"

Tao suddenly became furious, and then Lu poured a basin of cold water on her on the spot.

"Well...it really has nothing to do with Yuuka. It's all our own fault."

"In short, there's no hope in recruiting members."

"But it's not impossible."

"Oh, right. What exactly is this 'secret weapon' you told Yuuka about?"

Midori suddenly remembered the key point.

"Of course it's the teachers and seniors."

Xue didn't say anything, and Teacher Xia Lai was stunned for a moment.

"…I?"

"Teacher, as we just said, our destination is the 'ruins'."

"The ruins are in a completely unknown area of ​​Millennium Suburbs...it's been sealed off by the Commonwealth Student Union."

"blockade?"

Hearing the word "blockade", Xue couldn't help but frown. If it could be blocked by the Federal Student Union...it couldn't be a simple place.

"Yes, it's said that the reason for the blockade is that it's been classified as a dangerous area... But no one knows exactly what's dangerous about that place."

"I don't even know if no one can get in, or if no one can get back out after getting in."

"I see…"

Xue nodded, and she had to admit that her curiosity was piqued.

"So, why did you go to that kind of place?"

Teacher Xia Lai raised the key points.

“Because we want to make the best game possible!”

"I want to prove that these game consoles that make me happy and feel happy..."

Tao paused.

"It's definitely not useless 'junk', but a precious 'treasure'!"

Feeling the burning fighting spirit of the girl in front of her, Xue chuckled softly.

"...Okay, since you're so motivated, Xiaotao, I will definitely give you my full support."

"me too."

This is Mr. Xia Lai, the same as mine.
