"Teacher Teacher, are we really going to see your game company?" Kiana said excitedly, she seems to be quite lively and hyperactive. Excited more because she gets to know a secret part of her teacher, which was famous for being mostly strict and quiet.
"I don't know teacher morgan have this kind of side to him" Mei said while walking beside the group, staying elegant as if she is running the model walkway.
"Subject Morgan, the Bronya will increase her likeness to the subject if you allow the Bronya to test your games" Bronya said with a deadpanned expression, on her side would be Seele cutely clinging to her. "Sister Bronya, seele is very excited too....what kind of game company would the teacher have?"
"Calm down, we'll be there soon...i guarantee it will be a surprise to all of you" Morgan guided them to the Mihoyo office, he intentionally bought a land only a walking distance away from the school. As soon as they arrived, they are greeted with the sight of a three story high fancy office. Although it is not a skyscraper, it is extremely vast and wide with beautiful designs and architecture borrowed straight from Void Archive. Obviously, the office itself is from a top design belonging to Pre-Civilization, making it look exquisite and eye-catching.
"Here it is, welcome to Mihoyo, girls. we don't have many staffs yet, but...."
Morgan escorted his students into the studio lobby, what greets them was a vast and fancy lobby, cleaning robots and monitors around the lobby. Morgan and Void Archive spend some time making this place into a perfect bastion for humanity and honkai, the entire building is heavily reinforced and secured with the state of the art security. Even though all of it is automated by computer and Artificial Intelligence for now.
"Whoa! teacher teacher! this is wayyyy too fancy!"
"Kiana, wait. don't run off" Mei said as she caught up to her.
"What troublemaker..." Morgan sighed and massaged his forehead, yet a slight smirk can be seen on his face. This is the early game Kiana he loves so much, what kind of captain is he if he doesn't feel happy seeing this heartwarming sight.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As they are walking through the hallway, the group tours are introduced to a lot of technological marvel that is the office, although it starts off as barren, Void Archive and himself has done a lot of things in order to make it possible, a week of preparation with the knowledge of the previous civilization era and the authority of the Herrscher of Reason.
Whether it will be cleaner robots, maintenance bots or display panels that shows off holographic images, all are technologies not possible to be used in this era, entering the realm of sci-fi.
"Bronya is impressed, this is even more advanced than most Anti-Entropy facilities..." Bronya looks around as they walked through the hallway, the group touring the company for the very first time.
"This is very cool but, why does the teacher dragged all of us here..." Mei said, her tone seems unclear. as cool as this is, she has some reservations about all of this.
"This is why...behold..." Morgan proudly unveiled the holographic posters in the main area, this hologram is displaying the character of Kiana, Mei, Bronya and even Seele. It's projections shows all of them striking their signature pose while wearing their valkyrie uniforms respectively.
"Uwaaah, why am i holding a scythe...?" Seele stared at the projections of her
"Cool...." Bronya is staring at her own character, especially the robot behind her, Project Bunny. She seems to like it a lot
"Is that me?! Teacher, how did you know that i learn Gun-kata?! wow!"
"This is..." Mei is mostly surprised to see her character on the hologram seems to be wielding a katana, and the appearance seems to resonated a lot with herself.
"That's right, all four of you are technically the main characters of the game i am working on"
"Wait really?!" Kiana moved closer, she has never expected she would be made into a game character by her own teacher, this all happened so suddenly.
"Of course, but you need to convince your parents to let me use your image, that's good? and by the way, i will also give some of the profits of the game to you, so there's no need to worry about being unfairly cheated" Morgan crossed his arms together, trying to put a convincing facade to the four of them.
"Don't worry teach! Miss Kiana will definitely convince stinky dad and mom, i will definitely be extra famous after this, right?" The naive Kiana speaks confidently.
"Idiotka, just because you are in a game, doesn't mean the game will be a success." Bronya said with a cold tone, even though she doesn't really mind, but its still a gamble.
"Before judging the game, why don't you try the beta version...?" Morgan pulls out a couple of mobile phones from his bag, he has been preparing this since earlier. Handing each of the girls a mobile phone with the game pre-installed.
"It's a mobile game?" Bronya analyzed the game's screen "Why is the icon have to be idiotka, obviously Bronya would be a better choice..."
Bronya complained, but Kiana seems to be pleased. Obviously this means she is the main character, right! she will get a lot of cool moments like the main characters of those homu games. (A.N: Yes Kiana, you definitely won't get any knives at all~)
They spent a few hours playing through the beta version of the game. Although it's still unpolished, it's already showing the potential of a great game that is decades ahead of the market, with its unique gameplay and even flashy effects. Even someone like Mei who is not interested in games, found herself hooked on playing it.
"What?! that's all! nooo, i want to play more! teacher, please release it fast! i want to play more, hehehe~" Kiana immediately went over to beg morgan. But he just shrugged her off. "I don't know what to say, that's all for the beta version, Kiana. but the official release is not far, i promise"
"The Bronya is also impressed, Bronya will talk to mama Cocolia immediately"
"Seele doesn't really mind, if Sister Bronya wants to, then Seele will also agree to have my image used...."
"I wonder if father would even agree...he is very stubborn..."
After chatting them up for a few more minutes and escorting the girls around the studio more, he finally send them home. the sky is already orange colored by the time they are home, now he is back to the complete quietness of the studio, which is still in the middle of recruiting staffs.
In this quiet studio, a feminine voice speaks to him, as he watches the girls walking away from the studio.
["Interesting..."]
"What did you found out, Void Archive?"
["That Seele girl have an unawakened True Stigmata...."]
"Excuse me, how is that possible in a world without a single history of Honkai?"
["That's exactly why i am very surprised to see that...and all three seems to have a potential Honkai Resistance as well...this is an anomaly"]
"What's going on here?" Morgan suddenly has fallen into a deep thought, looking up into the sky. is this world as ordinary as it looks? does it have secrets that is still unknown to him. Either way, he already is determined to keep them smiling, no matter the cost.
["Are you sure they can be the heroes this world needs? they are just ordinary girls, even with their potential"]
"I have faith in them, they saved me after all...that's why i want to protect their smiles..." Morgan turns around and looks over at the screen on his main office space, displaying all of the valkyries design. "I will save them even if i have to make a world where only i get hurt..."
["You have quite the strong determination, host..."]
"Hasten the speed of the project and the recruitment process. Make sure to have the PV ready to be published in all languages, and make sure all of it is impeccable...we need to be fast"
