Zongman: My Smart Group

However, Lin Mo quickly came to his senses and finally reached out to hold her hand. After all, the time for the father and daughter to reunite was coming soon, so he should give her some face. Besides, he had already made a deep impression on them, so it wouldn't be a big deal for him to act a little silly.

With a mix of tension and excitement, Lin Mo and Rikka Takanashi stood side by side, looking at the sun frozen in the sky. They took a deep breath and then their expressions turned serious.

What? You're asking why the sun isn't moving? Don't ask, the answer is simply because the Silent Emperor is awesome.

After timing the sunset, the two began their chanting.

"Break out, reality!"

"Break, nerves!"

"Exile this world!"

The Evil King's True Eye instantly burst forth with golden light, and layers of blood-red magic circles piled up and rotated slightly. At the center of the golden pupil, an even more powerful force erupted, and the light instantly pierced through the entire sky!

The power of the Evil King's True Eye was finally revealed at this moment. What should have been a realistic event suddenly became somewhat illusory. The inescapable boundary line slowly spread out, accelerating continuously, and in the blink of an eye, it filled the sight of the group.

Although they were a little scared, they quickly regained their composure because of their trust in Lin Mo.

Yukino Yukinoshita curiously observed her surroundings. This pure white world was like a canvas, with all sorts of colors being rendered, and an unfamiliar map was loading.

Although the map hadn't finished loading, Rikka Takanashi immediately recognized it as the back mountain of her hometown, a place filled with fond memories for her and her father.

The sea before them had vanished, replaced by a familiar landscape from her memories. Rikka Takanashi turned to look at Lin Mo, her eyes filled with excitement. Just as she was about to say something, Lin Mo made a shushing gesture, then slowly took a few steps back, and finally disappeared completely.

"Little Liuhua!"

Just as Takanashi Rikka was about to look for Lin Mo, the familiar tone and voice suddenly made her freeze in place. Her body trembled slightly, and she didn't dare to turn around, fearing that it was an illusion. Even though many years had passed, she still recognized her father's voice.

The footsteps behind them slowly approached, stopping when they were two or three meters away. Takanashi's father said with a smile, "Little Rokka, no, I should call you Big Rokka, you've grown so much since I last saw you!"

The familiar greeting, the familiar voice—Rikka Takanashi finally mustered the courage to turn around. Looking at that familiar yet blurry face, she couldn't bear it any longer and rushed towards him, crying out, "Daddy!"

Not far away, Lin Mo and the others stood quietly to the side, watching. After all, this was Liu Hua's family matter, and it was not appropriate for them to get involved.

Lin Mo turned to look at Yukino Yukinoshita and the others, and said with a smile, "I'm sure you have a lot of questions, and I can take this opportunity to answer them for you."

Yui Yuigahama immediately raised her hand and said, "I have a question, where is this place?"

Lin Mo: "This is the past timeline. I have temporarily synchronized the events of the future onto Rikka's father. This memory will fade after we leave, and he will only truly remember it after he dies."

Sanae Dekomori was the second to speak: "Emperor Silent Heaven! Emperor Silent Heaven! Um... can you make me as powerful as you?"

Lin Mo: "Unfortunately, no. I am where I am today because of my talent and hard work, which you can't learn."

Yukino Yukinoshita thought for a moment and then asked, "What state are you in right now?"

Lin Mo: "Just like you thought, I'm in a rational state right now."

Yukino Yukinoshita tensed up instantly: "Then will you destroy the world?"

Lin Mo: "I'm not some kind of demon, how could I possibly destroy the world?"

That's what she said, but Yukino Yukinoshita was still not at ease. After all, Lin Mo said the same thing in the last world, and look what happened in that world. In the end, God had to come out and clean up the mess.

Although Lin Mo has regained his senses and feels ashamed, in some ways, he is even more troublesome than before.

………………

P.S.: There's not much to write about my daily life here. Tomorrow I'll head straight to the Konosuba world.

I've unknowingly fallen so far behind, I can't keep slacking off like this. I'll have a blast fighting the continent today, and then I'll release a massive update tomorrow!

Chapter 143 Kazuma Sato: Loyalty!!! (Fourth update)

To avoid any misunderstandings, I'll repeat myself: the two extra chapters are for "叱咕月海猫猫鱼" (two verified authors) and "我擦可以哟" (another verified author) (these are chapters owed from last month, and I'll make up for them this month).

........................

Fortunately, nothing happened in the end, and everything proceeded smoothly. Takanashi Rikka said her final goodbye to her father, while Yukino and the others quietly watched Lin Mo show off.

Having resolved her long-standing inner conflict, Rikka Takanashi is no longer so fixated on her chuunibyou (middle school syndrome). After all, her goal at the beginning of her chuunibyou 21 was to see her deceased father. Now that her regrets have been resolved, it's time for her to pursue something more important to her!

Rikka Takanashi trotted up to Lin Mo, put her hands behind her back, lightly touched the ground with her left foot, and said shyly, "Lin Mo, can we say goodbye one last time?"

Lin Mo immediately understood what he meant; it was just about doing another shameful action, nothing difficult about that.

Lin Mo: "Sure, after all, I'll help people to the end."

Takanashi Rikka quickly grabbed Lin Mo's hand and ran to her father. She excitedly introduced him, "Dad, this is Lin Mo, the Emperor Mo who signed an eternal contract with me and is in charge of everything for eternity!"

Lin Mo's expression stiffened, and he said somewhat awkwardly, "You don't need to worry about the title after that, just call me Lin Mo."

Takanashi's father looked Lin Mo over carefully, then bowed deeply and said, "Thank you, Lin Mo!"

Lin Mo reached out to help him up and said, "There's no need to be so polite. It's just a small favor for me."

Takanashi's father: "But you've been a huge help to me. If it weren't for you, I don't know how long it would have taken for Rikka to get over her troubles. I'm so grateful! I'll be entrusting Rikka to your care from now on!"

Rikka Takanashi blushed slightly but didn't refute anything.

Lin Mo was completely dumbfounded. Wasn't it said that every father loves his daughter very much? What's wrong with you, old man? You're actually pushing your daughter into a fire pit. You've lived a dissolute life and love freedom. The shackles of love can't hold you back!

Lin Mo said with a righteous expression, "I'm not such a shallow person. I only helped you because of a promise!"

Hearing this, Takanashi's father felt more at ease and said with a smile, "It's getting late. Traveling through time probably comes at a great price. We've talked enough, so you should head back soon."

Lin Mo: "Actually, there's not much of a price to pay. It's just that you have to put up with Old Deng's spying. You can chat for three days and three nights without any problem."

Rikka Takanashi shook her head and said, "No need. I'm already very happy to see Dad again. We've talked for a long time, and it's time to say goodbye."

Lin Mo: "Actually, you can come anytime you want. I can even resurrect your father in the real world without any abnormalities."

Rikka Takanashi gently shook her head, took two steps forward, then suddenly turned around and smiled at Lin Mo: "Lin Mo, I am truly grateful to you. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would never have been able to see my father again in this lifetime. But I can't be greedy anymore. After talking with my father for so long, and him asking about my future sister and grandparents, I realized how many people I have hurt because of my stubbornness. I can't keep dwelling on the past. It's time for me to move on."

Lin Mo was slightly taken aback. He really hadn't expected Rikka Takanashi to have such a high level of awareness, but it did seem to make sense.

Rikka Takanashi extended her hand again and said, "Lin Mo, let's draw a perfect conclusion to this reunion!"

Lin Mo: "Sigh~ I just can't do anything with you."

The two stood side by side on the hilltop, their expressions unusually serious. Behind them, Takanashi's father watched with a look of satisfaction.

"Break out, reality!"

"Break, nerves!"

"Exile this world!"

A pure white light reappeared, and the world lost its color once more. After being filled with white light, it was only a moment later that the group returned to the Service Department.

Lin Mo withdrew his hand, turned his head and was about to say something when he was ambushed by Rikka Takanashi.

A sneak attack? A sneak attack is impossible!

Lin Mo dodged in a flash, leaving Rikka Takanashi suspended in mid-air, unable to move.

Lin Mo sneered, "You actually dare to take advantage of me? You're incredibly audacious."

Takanashi Rikka, somewhat embarrassed and angry, said, "Lin Mo! Shouldn't you be waiting for me to give you a passionate kiss at a time like this? What do you mean by this!"

Lin Mo looked at everyone who was watching the show with amusement, put down Rikka Takanashi and said, "I helped you and you still took advantage of me. You got all the benefits, you're getting too big for your britches!"

Yukino Yukinoshita's wariness of Lin Mo vanished instantly; this was the Lin Mo she had always admired!

Lin Mo: "After all this time, it's time you got down to business."

With a casual grab in mid-air, he pulled out Hachiman Hikigaya and Kazuma Sato.

The two of them looked around in complete bewilderment, having no idea what had happened.

Just then, the burst skill effect ended, and Lin Mo hugged the two of them around the neck, laughing as he said, "Great, you're finally here! Now it's time to practice the Three Heads and Six Arms combo skill!"

Sato Kazuma finally realized what was happening, broke free from Lin Mo's arm, and said excitedly, "Wait a minute! Can you tell me what happened? I was playing games at home, how did I suddenly end up here? Don't you guys think this is very illogical?"

Hachiman Hikigaya also shook off his arm and said somewhat habitually, "The person is already back, why bother with so much?"

Anyway, no matter what strange things happen, just blame it on Lin Mo.

Sato Kazuma stood there dumbfounded, looking at everyone's nonchalant expressions. Had he been making a big fuss? Was this kind of thing really that common? It seemed he was out of touch with the times. Suddenly, teleportation and all that was normal... normal my foot!

Kazuma Sato exclaimed excitedly, "This is teleportation! This is supernatural power! My house is several kilometers away from here, and in a flash, I'm at the club! Why didn't you guys react at all? Or have you all been secretly evolving, and I've completely fallen behind this world?"

Lin Mo: "Alright, alright, you sadistic king, I know how excited you are right now, but please don't get excited, because there's something even more exciting coming up."

Kazuma Sato swallowed hard. Was the gate to the underworld finally about to open for him? Was he finally going to possess invincible power like the protagonist and build a harem? This was amazing! He knew he was destined to be the protagonist!

Lin Mo said with a serious expression, "After all, you've joined the Three Heads and Six Arms group! It's time to start practicing our skills. They are supreme mysteries, and anyone who masters them will be unparalleled in the world! Invincible! But before you start practicing, can you guarantee that you will always be loyal to the Three Heads and Six Arms group and never betray them?"

Suppressing his excitement, Kazuma Sato straightened his back and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Loyalty!!!"

This is a rare opportunity for me to step into the inner world, how could I give it up so easily!

Chapter 144 He Seems a Bit Dead (Fourth Update)

Lin Mo patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction and said, "Very good! I acknowledge your loyalty. Now let's begin rehearsals!"

Satania: "Wait a minute! I have a question. Are we going to rehearse our 'Three Heads, Six Arms' group here? Shouldn't we find a more secluded place?"

Lin Mo said nonchalantly, "There's no need to care about such things. I've figured it out. The position of mere president is not worthy of me. My goal is the stars and the sea. I want to be the ruler of Earth! I want to make humanity great again! Long live humanity!"

Rikka Takanashi: "Long live humanity!"

Sanae Tokomori: "Long live humanity!"

Megumi Kato: "Long live humanity!"

Satania: "Long live humanity!"

Hachiman Hikigaya's lips twitched slightly: "So, you guys, with your three heads and six arms, are rehearsing! What does that have to do with me? Hurry up and send me back, you bastard! I haven't even had dinner with Komachi yet!"

Lin Mo: "Sigh~ It was just a small thing."

Hachiman Hikigaya: "Then why don't you just take it back to me while you're at it!"

Lin Mo spread her hands and said, "Sorry, I can't do that, but since we're already here, there's no need to go back for dinner. I'll just treat everyone to dinner later."

Hachiman Hikigaya: "No, I want to go back and eat the meal my sister made!"

Lin Mo took out his phone and said, "Xiao Machi? Your brother is in my hands now. Don't wait for him for dinner. That's right, let's go out to eat together. Just throw his portion to the dogs. That's all, bye."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Mo said, "There's no food for you at home now."

Hachiman Hikigaya originally wanted to leave, but he knew that Lin Mo would not let him go so easily, so he resigned himself to staying and decided to make a killing on him when he treated him to dinner later!

Looking at the fully assembled trio of three heads and six arms, Lin Mo nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand, saying, "As expected of my subordinates, they remain calm and composed even after experiencing such a fantastical event."

Rikka Takanashi: "Time travel is something the Evil King's True Eye can do; there's nothing surprising about it."

Sanae Dekomori: "My master and I have fought enemies on the timeline several times, it's just routine for us."

Satania: "While your ability to travel through time is indeed impressive, it's still slightly inferior to mine!"

Megumi Kato: "Well, to be honest, I was quite surprised."

Kazuma Sato looked around. Since everyone had spoken, he felt he had to say something too, otherwise he'd seem like an outsider. But what were they talking about? Time travel and stuff like that—was it just chuunibyou or was it real? If it was real, it was way too outrageous!

Finally, Kazuma Sato spoke up: "Loyalty!"

It's best not to get involved in things you don't understand; at this point, all you need to do is demonstrate your loyalty!

Lin Mo's gaze towards Sato Kazuma immediately changed. As expected of the King of Demons, the person he trusted was far more loyal than that Hachiman Hikigaya, constantly demonstrating his loyalty. Unlike Hachiman, who had betrayed him three times, a fence-sitter. It seemed it was time to find another opportunity to teach him a lesson!

Lin Mo: "Everyone is very energetic, so let's start rehearsing!"

Yui Yuigahama curiously observed the three-headed, six-armed group! She had been fortunate enough to see their hand gestures in person before, so she was quite curious about this rehearsal.

Lin Mo: "The previous combination technique is no longer suitable for us, after all, our number has reached five. In order to adapt to the version update, I have created a new combination technique, and I will teach you now."

Lin Mo looked at the most crucial character—Sato Kazuma.

Lin Mo patted him on the shoulder and said, "King of Demons, you can be said to play a crucial role in our combined technique. Whether it can be completely successful depends on you!"

Sato Kazuma was deeply moved, never expecting that he held such a heavy place in Lin Mo's heart. He quickly straightened his chest and said, "I would go through fire and water for you!"

Lin Mo: "Alright! I like your drive. Now kneel down."

"Okay! I'll kneel down right now... Wait! What do you mean by kneeling down!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Kazuma Sato realized something was wrong and quickly shouted, "Isn't this a combination technique? Why do I have to kneel down?!"
