After the information dump yesterday, Morgan took a few days off from his work as Saint Freya's teacher, sending in a sick notice to gather up his thoughts and forming a plan. He is sitting down in front of his laptop, researching about the world he inhabits now.
"So, Schicksal Consortium is sponsoring Saint Freya's Elite School and Anti-Entropy is a game company in this world" He gathered as much information as he could from the internet.
["Correct host, according to my database, the CEO of Schicksal Consortium is one Otto Apocalypse. Just like in the game of your memory, Theresa Apocalypse is his adopted granddaughter. Kallen Kaslana in this world seems to occupy the position of a teacher in your Saint Freya Academy"]
"Thank you, Void Archive. you're really reliable" He expected nothing less from the 1st Divine Key, containing all of the knowledge in the world. There is no other reliable partner than this sentient divine key.
["Of course."] Void Archive responded with a hint of arrogance. Morgan just gives a wry smile to his only companion in this strange world.
"That's aside, there really is something wrong with this world's entertainment" He immediately diverted the topic to prevent his system from being too full of it.
"it's all homu's! i didn't expect things to be this bad"
Indeed, after researching about the world with the help of this body's memory and Void Archive, he found out the stagnant and over-saturated market of games. Most popular games are either homu themed or related to one, this mascot is way too popular! not to mention, the state of their mobile games is incredibly outdated. Most mobile games in this world consist of either Homu Tower Defense Games or casual games. Gacha games is still an untapped market in this world.
"This is good news, it means we have a better chance of being popular...Void Archive, how is the progress of the company licensing?"
["The company is going well, as per your request, i have registered our company Mihoyo on the stock market and also registered our domain, the website is already finished. I have also created the Official Twitter and YouTube accounts"]
"That's most of them for the PR, how about the progress on the building project and the servers?"
["The representative of Anti-Entropy have already been contacted, we will use their servers temporarily. While the representative of Schicksal Consortium is waiting for your contact about the building"]
"Schicksal? so they handle real estate in this world?"
["Not just Real Estate host, Schicksal handles all sorts of things from Real Estate, Tech and even Fashion...it is one of the biggest conglomerate in the world"]
"As expected of Otto, so who should i meet with for the land purchase?"
["You will see, host..."]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Damn you system, why didn't you warned me i would meet one of the characters so soon! Morgan cursed to himself, as he was now face to face with the agent that was supposed to be responsible for the land purchase for his company. Yes, it was none other than the legendary Cecilia Schariac, Kiana's mother and all Captain's Mother in Law!!
"Eh, Professor Morgan? you're the one interested in buying the land?"
Indeed, Cecilia and Morgan knows each other in passing, mainly because Kiana is his student at Saint Freya School, it is quite an awkward situation to meet each other in this way, usually Morgan comes over to Cecilia to report about Kiana's slacker behavior at school
"It's nice to meet you again, Miss Cecilia"
"Oh? i didn't expect you to greet me back, i thought you are a quiet person, Professor~"
"Haha, well, a lot can change, Miss Cecilia...How about we talk about business first?" Morgan quickly changed the topic, clearing his throat to hide how nervous he is. Although he has seen her a lot in his memories and the game, this is his first time seeing the legendary mother in law in the flesh. Professor Morgan used to be quite introverted and slightly autistic, making him appear dull and boring. But ever since he remembered his past life and got the system, he became much more confident, giving off a charming charisma.
Cecilia noticed this of course, there is a stark difference between the Professor Morgan she knows and the one standing in front of her, but as just a mere acquaintance, she wont pry. oblivious to the fact that his changes was caused by becoming a Herrscher.
While surveying and looking around for land to build the first Mihoyo office building, Cecilia is chatting up Morgan. The Professor, still overwhelmed by seeing Cecilia in the flesh is maintaining his composure well due to the help of the Herrscher Core inside him
"She's a normal woman, she's a normal woman, she's a normal woman!" Morgan continue to rationalize to himself. Eventually, as they continue chatting together in a friendly manner, he became more and more comfortable around Cecilia, noticing how approachable and friendly she seems to be "I see why they made her an agent, she has a natural presence that makes others feel at ease. Now that i think about it...idolizing her in the first place feels wrong, this is not the same Cecilia as the one in the game. Yes, it would be disrespectful to keep putting her on a pedestal".
"I thought you are just a cultural arts professor, why do you need to buy a huge land? if you don't mind me asking?"
"I am planning to make a game company?"
"Game company?" Cecilia's eyes immediately started sparkling after hearing about his plans! She herself is an avid gamer after all. "What kind of games, Professor?!"
"A story focused beautiful girls mobile game"
"What? like a dating game or a visual novel?" Cecilia looks disappointed. Mobile Games in this world is considered either for casual players or children, that's how it is normally.
"No no, not a dating game or a visual novel...a narrative driven game about beautiful girls and growth?"
"That sounds like an interesting game. honestly, i never expect the professor to be someone interested in games...when i first met you, you feel more old fashioned" Cecilia politely smiles at him, still a bit skeptical that this random teacher could make a game company
Morgan accepting her skepticism as a challenge, narrowed his eyes and glance over at cecilia "If you're really skeptical, miss Cecilia...i can send you the beta of the game in a few days, you can test it yourself"
After exchanging contacts with Cecilia and looking around for empty lands to purchase, he ended up buying a lot of land located near the Saint Freya School, wanting to make it simpler and easier to commute between the company and the school back and forth.
Now standing in front of the empty lot, both hand tucked inside his pocket as he looks at the sky, looking at the stars, a voice speaks up besides him
["Are you sure you want to do this? even people would be suspicious if a building is suddenly appearing out of nowhere, you're risking exposing yourself like this"]
"Void Archive, eventually the truth will come out anyway. People will only speculate without actual evidence, and really....i don't have any patience to have a building made from scratch"
["You're quite stubborn for a host. Fine, i'll help you"] The golden cube appeared in front of him as he stretched out his hand, hovering above his palm.
"Begin constructing..." Morgan clenched his fist, his hair blowing in the cold wind, the pupils of his eyes changed shape into that of a mechanical interface, whirring with machine like sounds, at the exact same time, a holographic image of a building is projected onto the empty lot.
"Material Construction, World Editing..." He muttered to himself, using his entire focus and concentration to create the building from scratch, assisted by the material understanding of Void Archive, he created the first office building of Mihoyo using the power of the Herrscher of Reason.
"Ugh! that's insane, i feel like my head is going to explode...how did Welt and Bronya ever do this thing? all i did was make a building" He immediately gasped for air, feeling a bit feverish from the sensation of using his power at full force for the first time, even with the assistance of void archive, it still takes an inhuman amount of concentration from him
"But still...it's worth it..." Morgan looks up, as beads of sweat rolled down his forehead from overexertion. Even still, he is displaying a cheerful smile, looking at the complete and sophisticated looking building in front of him, this is his creation, this is the place where he will make history "Amazing, this is really cool...i want to do more..."
["Don't forget we also need staffs and maintenance crew, there is a lot of things we need to do"]
"One step at a time..." Morgan smiled as he takes the first step inside his newly created building, entering a new chapter and the first sign of progress in this world.
