As soon as Luo Bai opened the door, he saw Liu Hua casting a spell on an empty paper cup, conjuring up a stream of water and trying to aim it into the cup.

The sound of Luo Bai opening the door startled her, and the magic she had painstakingly aimed missed its mark again, hitting Togashi Yuta directly and soaking his clothes.

"Ah! Rikka!"

Faced with Yuuta's accusations, Rikka shrank back in fear and looked at Luo Bai, saying, "It's, it's senpai's fault. My magic was definitely not the problem!"

Hearing Rikka's explanation, Luo Bai laughed and said, "A mere sound of a door opening can disrupt your magic. Rikka, your training is still lacking."

As she spoke, Luo Bai pointed at Yuta and extracted the water that had gotten on his clothes, putting it all into a paper cup.

"Oh!!!"

Seeing Luo Bai's professional magic, Rikka excitedly clapped her hands.

"You couldn't even use a wand? You're amazing, senior! Can you teach me?"

"Practice hard, and you'll be able to do it naturally once you get the hang of it. Of course, the power will be reduced, so it can only be used in emergencies."

As he explained, Luo Bai sat down next to Yukino and took a sip of the tea she had brewed for him.

"So, you've come here today to demonstrate magic?"

Rikka shook her head and said, "I was bored in the club, it was just me and Yuta, so I came over."

Taking the book out of his bag, Luo Bai said with a smile, "What, isn't having time alone with just the two of you good? Doesn't that mean we can be affectionate together openly?"

Luo Bai's words made the young couple, who had been dating for quite some time, blush, and Luo Bai shook his head in disbelief.

"Just the two of you? Where's Dansheng Valley?"

Yuta explained, "Sanae called me to help out at the student council. Apparently, it was about club funds, and they needed help with the calculations, so I was pulled over."

“Oh right, with the new school year starting, it’s time to get back to club activities.” Luo Bai nodded. “But it won’t affect us. Our club has never asked for funding from the beginning; it’s all self-funded.”

Not only the Service Club, but also Rikka and her friends' clubs are like that, or rather, it would be more appropriate to say they are hobby clubs.

However, since there were still empty classrooms available, Rikka and her friends were lucky enough to get an empty classroom to use as their club room.

As for now, the Service Club has powerful backers and won't be shut down for not participating in club assessments. The same goes for Rikka and her Far East Magical Nap Club Summer; Luo Bai has already spoken to them about it.

Before starting to study, Luo Bai looked at Rikka and Yuta.

"Since you don't plan to go back to your own clubs, then study together here. You can ask us if you don't understand anything."

The two nodded happily, then took out their homework and began to write.

Volume 1: Chapter 570 The Live Broadcast That Evening (2/2)

Today's club activities ended smoothly. Rikka and Yuta waited for Sanae Dekomori and Morika Nibutani, who had finished their student council work, and then they went home together.

Luo Bai drove the Holy Emperor and Sima Weizhi back after they finished their work, and then went to the supermarket with Xue Nai and the others to buy ingredients for dinner before returning home to start cooking.

Shinobu Kocho also came home from get off work and came to the kitchen to help.

Humming a song while chopping vegetables, Shinobu Kocho asked, "Is Ai's live stream starting at eight o'clock tonight?"

Luo Bai nodded: "Yes, eight o'clock, the timing is just right. After everyone has finished eating and taken a shower, they can watch the live broadcast properly. She also sent a message in the group this afternoon that she has already met with several voice actors at the office in Tokyo and is going over the script."

Shinobu Kocho smiled and said, "I saw it. They even posted photos. I saw it, but I was busy so I didn't send a message. However, I originally thought the live stream would be done in Chiba, since the development company is also here."

"Since most of the other voice actors' agencies are based in Tokyo, and Ai hasn't been to the agency for a while, we suggested that we hold the live stream in Tokyo. After the live stream ends tonight, Mai will pick her up, and they'll stay in Tokyo for the night and come to school tomorrow morning."

race

Although she didn't fall in that event many times after the "Mommy Project" started, Hoshino Ai still got along very well with the other voice actors.

In addition, Ai Hoshino is indeed very talented, so everyone had a very pleasant collaboration. This will make many future collaborative activities easier, just like today's live stream.

After dinner, everyone finished their own tasks, took showers, and did their homework. Then they all went to the screening room, connected their laptops to the projector, and turned on the live broadcast that was about to begin.

Looking at the number of people displayed on the webpage, Yukino said without any surprise, "As expected, with Ai's popularity, I guess a lot of people who don't play mobile games are now following Uma Musume."

Luo Bai nodded and said, "That's for sure, but there are pros and cons to it. How many people we can attract and convert into players depends on our subsequent actions."

Yukino was well aware of this, since many people were Ai's fans and only watched the live stream because of Ai.

If the project doesn't attract these viewers, it won't be able to convert them into players and encourage them to spend money on in-game purchases.

On the other side of Luo Bai, Mi Yu was sitting there, holding her phone, playing Uma Musume.

The racehorse she is currently breeding is Golden Ship.

She originally wanted to raise Miura Bourbon, but unfortunately it hasn't been implemented in the game yet, so she can only wait for a later release.

Watching the golden ship on the screen activate its skill and surge straight to first place from the back, Mi Yu excitedly exclaimed, "Wow, that's amazing! No wonder it's called the golden ship!"

Sitting next to Mi Yu, Oguri Hat wasn't playing, but she was also looking at Mi Yu's phone screen, smiling as she said, "Golden Ship's sprint is indeed excellent, but if she could better allocate her energy and tactics, she could definitely run ahead."

Upon hearing this, Luo Bai laughed and said, "There's nothing we can do. Golden Ship wants to run this way. Even if Trainer Nishizaki wanted to change her running style, it would most likely be unsuccessful. I guess he tried, but gave up because he didn't succeed. Unless Golden Ship encounters a strong opponent and feels the pressure, she probably won't change her running style."

Oguri Hat nodded and said, "I think so too. While Golden Ship's personality is very attractive, it can also affect her performance and growth, which is not good. As a racehorse girl, cooperation with the trainer is very important, but relying on oneself makes it easy to overlook some things."

As a senior figure, Oguri Hat is very qualified to say these things.

Mi Yu affirmed, "That's right, racehorse girls can't do it on their own. Just like us, with our brother's help, we're getting stronger and stronger!"

Luo Bai smiled and patted Mi Yu's little head, saying, "My words are another matter. To be honest, it's really a bit beyond the scope of a racehorse trainer. Ordinary trainers can't teach you things like breathing techniques and magic."

"The live stream is about to begin."

Kanao's voice drew everyone's attention back to the large projection screen.

The live stream has started, featuring four voice actors, including Xiao Ai, all dressed in specially made school uniforms from the game's Teresen Academy, cosplaying as the horse girls they voice.

Besides horse ears, Xiao Ai also wore a black hat decoration on her head, just like the one Mi Yu wore.

Watching Xiao Ai deliver her opening remarks as the host, Luo Bai couldn't help but smile.

"You're very well prepared."

Yukino nodded and said, "Yes, that's Ai's style. She always does her best in whatever she's doing, even if it's a side job that's not her main job as a singer."

Luo Bai smiled and looked at Yukino: "In a sense, you are quite similar. You both strive to do things perfectly."

Yukino returned the smile.

"That's true, but because of you, I can no longer get first place in the grade."

"Then I'll give in?"

"No need, just wait for the midterm exams."

Just then, Shinobu Kocho's voice drifted over.

"You two, if you want to flirt, find another time and place. We're watching a live stream right now."

Even though they've been married for a long time, Yukino was still a little shy when she realized what was happening.

Upon closer reflection, their conversation just now did seem a bit off.

Yukino glared at Luo Bai, who was still laughing, and then stopped talking and quietly watched the live stream.

The live stream went smoothly. After the initial chat, Ai Hoshino talked to the voice actors about the Uma Musume Pretty Derby anime, and then the topic smoothly transitioned to today's main content, which was mobile games.

Speaking of mobile games, gacha mechanics is naturally one of the core elements, and today's live stream included a live gacha session.

Four phones logged into new accounts were set up, and the four people took turns drawing cards, each person performing five 10-pulls of the horse girl card and five 10-pulls of the assistance card.

Seeing that Hoshino Ai was the first to pick up her phone, Yukino asked, "You didn't adjust the success rate of the gacha pulls, did you?"

"Of course, I wouldn't do something so tasteless; it's purely a matter of luck."

As soon as he finished speaking, colorful lights flashed on the screen.

"..."

Luo Bai's eyes twitched as he looked at the two rice bath cards that Hoshino Ai had drawn in a single ten-pull.

"This girl's luck is unbelievable, isn't it?"

Volume 1: Chapter 571 An Unexpected Guest Arrives at Home (1/2)

The one-hour live stream ended quickly. The entire live stream went smoothly and was full of fun. In addition to giving away a batch of mobile game test qualifications, they also held a raffle to give away some newly produced but unreleased Uma Musume merchandise.

The number of viewers for the live stream has consistently remained above 20,000 and has never dropped.

After the live stream ended, the name "Uma Musume" immediately appeared on the trending topics of social media, proving the success of tonight's live stream.

Fifteen minutes later, Hoshino Ai sent a message along with a photo of her, Mai, and several other voice actors eating at a restaurant.

After smiling and saying a few words to Xiao Ai, telling her to get some rest early today, Luo Bai put down his phone and looked at the girls who were looking for a movie to watch.

"You guys have been looking for almost ten minutes and still haven't found a movie you want to watch? Also, it's late at night, so let's not look for horror movies tonight. I'm worried you won't be able to sleep."

Tina, holding the remote control, nodded: "Okay, let's watch this one, Ready Player One!"

Luo Bai had seen the movie Ready Player One when it was first released, and it was indeed quite good, so he watched it with the girls.

However, just two minutes into the movie, a loud "bang" came from the first floor of the villa, startling everyone.

Yukino grabbed Luo Bai's arm and frowned, asking, "What's going on? Has someone broken in?"

Luo Bai narrowed his eyes and said, "There was a strange energy fluctuation just now, it was a bit like magic, and a bit like spatial teleportation. Let's go down and take a look. With me here, there's no threat."

The movie was paused, and everyone left the screening room and went downstairs.

The lights on the first floor were still on. As soon as everyone came down, they saw that a large section of the floor was damaged and was still smoking.

In the middle of the destroyed area stood a black-haired girl with a bewildered expression.

Black hair in pigtails, delicate face, red fitted sweater, black...

The short skirt and black over-the-knee socks formed an absolute territory, making her a truly beautiful young woman with elegant features.

However, the girl's face was still filled with confusion, clearly unaware of what had happened, as she looked around.

The cats in the house were clearly frightened by the sudden appearance of the stranger, and they all bristled and stared at her.

As Luo Bai descended the stairs, he easily guessed the other person's identity from their appearance and attire.

Isn't this Rin Tohsaka from the Type-Moon universe?

I just don't know the specific time period, or which storyline Rin Tohsaka is in, since there are just too many Type-Moon storylines with parallel worlds and such.

Looking at the girl, and as their eyes met, Luo Bai said to Shinobu Kocho, "Shinobu, send a message to the base and lift the alert. There's no need to send an action team over. I'll arrange the follow-up."

Shinobu Kocho nodded, took out her phone, and began making arrangements.

Step by step, Luo Bai approached Rin Tohsaka and, after sensing the aura around her, confirmed, "As expected, you were accidentally teleported here. I really didn't expect your luck to be so bad. Don't be afraid, you're safe here. I'll tell you in detail what happened."

Rin Tohsaka stared blankly at Luo Bai for several seconds after he finished speaking before she reacted. She looked at the house, then at the girls following behind Luo Bai, her eyes widening in disbelief, and said, "Huh!!! So you're not a Heroic Spirit?"

"Heroic Spirit?"

Luo Bai frowned and looked at Rin Tohsaka, saying, "Of course I'm not a Heroic Spirit. Why would you ask that?"

Yukino came to Luo Bai's side and said softly, "Judging from her expression, it seems like she's known you for a long time."

Luo Bai also noticed that Rin Tohsaka did not show any nervousness or hostility when she saw him.

As a magician, even if Rin Tohsaka doesn't have that much experience, she would definitely be more vigilant when she arrives in an unfamiliar place.

But she didn't do that.

"You've known me for a long time, is that true?"

Rin Tohsaka nodded in response to Luo Bai's question.

"When?"

"Ten years ago, during the Fourth Holy Grail War."

To Luo Bai, Rin Tohsaka answered without hesitation, and then said, "So this is the first time we've met? I see."

Rubbing his temples, Luo Bai finally understood.

"The timing is different. It seems that at some point in the future, I went to your childhood and met you, which is why you're not nervous when you see me now. Ten years ago, during the Fourth Holy Grail War? That's not a good time."

With that, Luo Bai took out his wand, calmed himself down, and began to cast a spell on the damaged floor.

A light emanated from the wand and began to spread outwards, gradually repairing the damaged floorboards. Within seconds, everything was perfectly restored, as if nothing had ever happened.

Seeing this, Rin Tohsaka stared wide-eyed in shock: "What, what kind of magic is this?"
