Collapse? No, this is just everyday life.

One praying mantis is not difficult, but what if you add two?

Even if two can get through, what if all three come at once?

Soon, Kaguya felt herself sweating profusely, and she gradually increased the pressure on her hands as she gripped the handle.

Actually, there aren't three mantises together on the game map; you can pass after defeating two. Its unique rhythm and combat style make it a true mentor for newcomers.

But here, Nangong Yu mischievously added the three mantises from the five gates of the Divine Abode, which increased the difficulty exponentially, successfully transferring the smile from Kaguya's face to Nangong Yu's.

This seems to be the second time I've written something like this. First of all, thank you all for your support.

The success of this book was somewhat beyond my expectations. I was just hoping it would be similar to my previous book in terms of popularity and collection, but I didn't expect so many people to support it. I read almost all the comments in the book reviews, and I will explain and try my best to correct any problems. If I'm wrong, I should admit it. There's nothing more to say about that.

The main theme of the book is still daily life and games. I've read what everyone mentioned in the comments, and big titles like Titanfall and Assassin's Creed are in the works. The Pokémon mentioned in the introduction will also appear soon. I will try my best to write a story that everyone can enjoy.

As for whether I'll run away with the money, please rest assured. If you don't believe me, you can click on my profile picture to see. Apart from the first one that was blocked halfway and couldn't be written, I've finished writing that nearly one million-word free work, and the only one I signed is also completed. At least my credibility can be guaranteed.

I don't know how to set the reward, so I'll just set it at 2000 recommendations or 100 monthly tickets per update. Judging from the current data, I probably won't be able to add many more chapters, so it's not a big problem. Rewards will be calculated separately.

That's all for now, no need to say too much. I need to hurry up and update in the next few days.

By the way, can we make a deal? I'll be on my way home most Saturday and Sunday, so updates might be inconsistent. On Saturday, I might only be able to update at the minimum. However, I'll have more time after I get home, and I'll update more for everyone then.

Finally, thank you all again for your support!

Chapter Sixty-Five: Oolong Tea?

As the little knight she controlled died one after another, Kaguya's eyes gradually became dull. Half an hour later, Nangong Yu finally couldn't bear the pangs of conscience and hurriedly went up to persuade her to stop.

Looking at her husband's face, Kaguya's blank eyes gradually regained their liveliness, and she said apologetically, "I'm sorry, husband, I didn't pass."

"No, no, no, I was the one who bullied you a bit."

She should have been watching for fun, but her frail appearance made Nangong Yu feel guilty.

Was it really going too far to bully his trusting and obedient fiancée like this? He couldn't help but reflect on it.

Of course, if Kaguya were replaced with Kiana, he would definitely laugh out loud.

Without any charms, without any dash, and without even any weapon upgrades, how can a human possibly challenge a complete set of three mantises?

Bronya muttered a complaint to herself, then stepped forward and grabbed Kaguya's arm.

"Let's go, ignore this idiot, let's go downstairs and have some snacks."

"But......"

Kaguya glanced at Bronya, then turned her head to look at Nangong Yu.

"Ignore him and let this wicked guy reflect on his own."

Bronya initially thought it was just a normal Mantis Lord, but who knew that Nangong Yu would bring out the most difficult mode. When the three Mantises came down together just now, she almost couldn't hold her breath. Isn't this just a trap?

"Seele, let's go!"

"Ok!"

Even Seele glared at him angrily this time. She and Bronya each grabbed Kaguya on one side and walked out of the studio as if they were united in their hatred, leaving Nangong Yu alone in the room.

Just when he thought Bronya and Seele were really angry, his phone suddenly vibrated in his pocket.

He opened the screen, and the three messages he had received almost simultaneously brought a smile to his face.

Seele: Brother, Seele's gone downstairs to comfort Kaguya-neechan. Don't forget to eat the pastries I left for you upstairs!

Bronya: I was just trying to comfort Kaguya, don't overthink it.

Kaguya: My lord, I was just a little focused just now, not discouraged. Thank you for your concern. The game is really great, I love it.

The various little thoughts made Nangong Yu laugh with amusement. She sat down in the chair with a smile and picked up the controller that Kaguya had put down.

I wonder what funny expressions they'd have if they saw that the other two had also sent them emails.

What Nangong Yu didn't know was that downstairs at that moment...

"That way, my brother (husband) won't worry anymore."

With the three phones pointed at each other, Kaguya and Seele exchanged a glance and smiled easily.

"You guys are still spoiling him too much."

Bronya muttered something, but Seele quickly retorted, "Bronya was definitely the one who sent it the fastest just now!"

......

The level on the screen restarted, and the buttons on the controller started clicking and clattering.

The boss that Kaguya had struggled to deal with earlier was now being handled with ease by the little knight controlled by Nangong Yu, who weaved through the attacks of the three mantises with graceful movements, soaring through the air without ever falling down.

With a series of pleasant, crisp ringing sounds, a few minutes later, the three mantises returned to their respective positions and bowed respectfully to the little knight.

"is acceptable."

After playing through it once, I found some areas for optimization. I put down the controller, brought up the document to organize and summarize the information, and then had Hatsune Miku reorganize the file before shutting down the computer in the studio.

It's almost time. The little spy Seele just 'secretly' told him that everyone is no longer angry, so it's time for him to go down.

......

The next morning, Reisen came to pick up Kaguya, who had been staying there for the night. They had stayed out too late the night before, so Nangong Yu suggested that Kaguya stay.

After breakfast, Xieryu and the other two picked up their schoolbags again, which hadn't been touched for over a month.

"Didn't you sleep well last night? Why are you so sleepy?"

Frowning at Nangong Yu who kept yawning, Bronya asked in confusion.

While eating breakfast, I thought Nangong Yu looked sleepy because she had just woken up, but now that she was about to get ready for school, she still looked tired, which was somewhat abnormal.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Nangong Yu did not speak, but simply gestured to Bronya behind her and sighed helplessly.

Bronya turned around in confusion and soon saw Seele with her head down, her cheeks flushed and not saying a word.

"Heh, you deserve it."

She quickly understood everything, gave her younger sister an approving look, and then scoffed at Nangong Yu with disdain.

Even with a driver present, Nangong Yu still suggested that Kaguya stay at his house for the night. Seeing that Bronya and Seele agreed without any apparent reason, he thought he had managed to hide his true intentions.

As a result, when night fell, Black Seele and Seele took turns 'torturing' him until the early hours of the morning before he realized that his little schemes were nothing in front of Seele and Bronya.

Not confronting him directly is already a sign of liking and indulging him enough.

It was comfortable, but it was really tiring.

If I actually manage to have two beautiful sisters on either side of me in the future, then...

Thinking of this, Nangong Yu immediately shivered.

I've been neglecting my exercise lately, that won't do. For my future happiness, I must strengthen my exercise routine!

After changing her shoes in the entryway, Xi'er noticed Nangong Yu rummaging through a storage cabinet. She immediately leaned over and asked, puzzled, "Brother, what are you looking for?"

"Ah."

Nangong Yu nodded and quickly pulled out a small metal cube from the storage cabinet.

"lighter?"

"correct."

After opening the box and hearing a "ding" sound indicating it could light, Nangong Yu put the lighter in his pocket with satisfaction.

"What does my brother need a lighter for?"

At this point, Seele immediately became serious, and even Bronya, who had opened the door, turned back and stared at him intently.

"Don't worry, I have no interest in smoking."

"Really? Seele really hates the smell of smoke."

The thought of kissing her brother and having his mouth full of cigarette smoke made Xi'er's face fall. Moreover, and most importantly, smoking is very bad for your health, and Xi'er didn't want to see her brother not taking care of his body.

Bronya's gaze turned cold as well.

“Tell me the truth, or you won’t be leaving this house today.”

The two gradually approached Nangong Yu, cornering him. Their attitudes shifted from soft to hard, eventually forcing him to raise his hands in a military salute.

"Really, really, I just took this because I felt something bad might happen today, just in case. I really have no interest in cigarettes."

"whats the matter?"

Sher was about 70-80% convinced, but she still asked one more question in the end.

"This hasn't happened yet, so I don't know what to say right now. Seele, Bronya, you have to believe me. What's so good about cigarettes? If you want comfort, I'd rather hug you and give you a kiss."

Upon hearing those blunt words, Seele and Bronya blushed for a moment. Then Bronya coughed twice and stepped aside, saying, "You smooth talker."

"Brother, you mustn't lie to Seele!"

Xi'er moved closer to Nangong Yu, took his hand, and said earnestly.

"of course!"

Seeing her brother nodding vigorously, Seele and Bronya were finally satisfied.

Since it's not smoking, then everything is negotiable.

Soon, the three parted ways on their way to school, and Nangong Yu soon ran into Sugisaki Ken, whom she hadn't seen for over a month.

"Good morning, how was your summer vacation?" He smiled and waved to Nangong Yu, and then the two walked side by side.

"Hmm~ Good morning, not bad, right?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Nangong Yu yawned again.

"Why are you so sleepy? Didn't you sleep well last night?"

"Ah."
