Li Wei casually tossed the oil lamp in his hand, and it landed on Orihana Natsume's hand. He said, "It won't take ten years at all. It will only take a year to take over your body. You were just used as a medium for his resurrection. After all, your physical condition is not bad."

Orihana Natsume looked at the oil lamp in his hand. He quickly checked the shadow he had made on the lamp and found that it was indeed the one he had lost. This terrified him. Could it be that what Li Wei said was true?

Like a killer who destroys a person's spirit, Li Wei begins to gradually dismantle Orimura Natsu's psychological defenses.

Falling from heaven to hell must feel like this. Natsumi Orimura looked at the oil lamp in her hand, wiped it, and what appeared in front of her was a distorted black smoke humanoid shape that sent chills down her spine just by looking at it.

The black smoke-like humanoid saw Natsumi Orimura, its scarlet eyes filled with cruelty, and instantly pounced on her.

"Ah!" Orimura Natsu screamed in fright.

Li Wei slapped it, shattering the black smoke figure into dust. The broken smoke quickly slipped back into the oil lamp.

Chapter 1. Continuing the Extermination

Li Wei said, "Because of the vampires, the guy inside regained some of his power ahead of time. It would have taken him ten years to gradually take over your body, but now, he can completely replace you within a year."

Orimura Natsume was devastated; he couldn't believe that his hope for the future was actually a deadly poison.

He had indeed unilaterally believed the genie's claims, accepting whatever the genie said. However, he had no way to verify the genie's claims, and his belief that the genie could grant wishes stemmed from the stories about the genie in Arabian Nights. Whether the genie could truly grant wishes was something he had no idea about.

Li Wei said, "You've wasted ten years of your life, only to find that all your hopes have been dashed. Like the moon reflected in a well, what could be more despairing than this? And when you're at your most desperate, evil spirits can take advantage of your vulnerability. I think you understand, right?"

Orimura Natsume stared at the oil lamp lying on the ground, his hands still trembling with fear. He never imagined that he had narrowly escaped death, and that his trump card was actually such a monstrous thing.

In Natsumi Orimura's mind, was Li Wei lying to him? A real magic lamp could indeed grant wishes, and this one was a replica made by Li Wei to deceive him. Once this thought surfaced in her mind, it grew like wildly rampant weeds, becoming completely uncontrollable.

However, Orimura Natsu knew he was no match for Li Wei. Even if his guess was true, what could he do? Thinking this way, he felt even more desperate.

Orimura Natsume was utterly dejected, her eyes devoid of light. Having experienced the highs and lows of life, she had come to terms with some things. Meanwhile, Li Wei received several system notifications in a row, accumulating points until his hands were numb.

Li Wei knew that although Zhiban Xia appeared calm on the surface, her heart was in turmoil.

Li Wei said, "What are your plans now? The false hope brought by the magic lamp has been shattered, but you still have to face the future."

Orimura Natsumi paused for a moment, then held up the oil lamp and placed it in front of Li Wei, saying, "For my sister's sake, could you please get rid of this oil lamp for me? I would be extremely grateful. This hidden danger must be eliminated before I can figure out the future. As for what happens after that... I want to leave the academy and do whatever I want."

Li Wei said, "If you need help, you can tell me now. However, things are about to change, and leaving the academy at this time might not be a bad thing for you."

Looking at Li Weina's wistful expression, Natsumi Orimura felt a sense of doubt and mustered her courage to ask, "What big thing will happen next?"

Li Wei said, "It is indeed a major event, and its impact will surpass that of the White Knight incident back then. The academy will be disbanded in a while."

Orimura Natsumi's pupils dilated in shock as she exclaimed, "What's going on? The academy was running perfectly well, so why is it being disbanded? With the military power the academy possesses, who could possibly force it to disband? Disbanding means giving up military power!"

Li Wei laughed and said, "Since you're Qian Dongwei's younger brother, I'll let you know some news that the outside world doesn't know. The female-dominated rule brought about by the IS armor is about to end. A new type of male armor, with individual strength stronger than the IS armor and a cost of only 10% of the IS armor, and a production difficulty of less than 10% of the IS armor, has already entered mass production. Soon, the whole world will change. The era of the IS armor is over. If you continue to block the wheels of time, you will only be crushed."

Orimura Natsumi said dejectedly, "Is the era of IS armor over...?"

Natsumi Orimura's despondency stems from the fact that with the shattering of the IS armor's status, his special position as a male IS armor pilot will be overturned. In the future, men will be able to pilot new armors with combat power surpassing that of the IS armor. This means that he will no longer be able to use his special status to enjoy privileges, and it means that even getting by will become difficult for him in the future.

One blow after another made Natsumi Orimura realize that she was not the main character.

Li Wei said, "A person's life goes through three stages of growth. The first stage is realizing that you are not the heart of the world, not the protagonist of your destiny. The second stage is realizing that no matter how hard you try, there are times when you are powerless, and some things cannot be accomplished simply through effort. The third stage is knowing that you are an ordinary person and learning to accept your ordinariness and ordinariness."

Li Wei appears to be offering platitudes, but in reality, he's striking at the heart of the matter, pressing his advantage after a victory.

Rubbing salt into a wound is so much fun; Li Wei, utterly despicable, is a master of this tactic. However, because his expression is so overly sincere, Orimura Natsumi hasn't yet sensed Li Wei's deep-seated malice.

Orimura Natsumi said, "Unlike me, you are the real protagonist. To be honest, I envy you. You have so many girls around you, and your life is very fulfilling every day. Even during lunch and dinner, you are surrounded by girls. I envy that kind of life."

Li Wei said, "I am just the protagonist of my own life. To want the whole world to revolve around me is a rather rude and arrogant idea. I am not arrogant enough to that extent."

Orimura Natsumi smiled and said, "That's true. I no longer have any illusions. Now that I have no academy to rely on, I have to find a way to survive on my own. How long exactly will it take for the academy to disband?"

Li Wei said, "After the school festival, the academy's higher-ups will announce the disbandment. This school festival is the academy's final farewell gift to the students. Next comes a new era, and the arrival of the new era also means a purge. I can only say that you are lucky. At least you didn't do anything you shouldn't have done. Even if there is a purge, it won't reach you."

Orimura Natsumi breathed a sigh of relief. Not becoming a victim of the era's changes was enough for him now.

Natsumi Orimura said, "Thank you for telling me all this. At least it gives me some time to prepare. Although the academy is about to close down, I still want to finish my studies during the last period of time at the academy. After that, I plan to go back to a regular high school and then strive for university."

Li Wei smiled and said, "Then I wish you success in getting into Tokyo University."

"Thank you... goodbye." Orimura Natsu knew that the future was no longer something a nobody like him could participate in, and he also understood that leaving in time might not be a bad thing.

As Li Wei watched Zhibanxia's retreating figure, he narrowed his eyes slightly. In his mind, the points panel showed a promising increase in numbers. He had chosen the right time to harvest the "leeks" (a metaphor for exploiting others), and the profits would be much greater than if he had simply cut them down directly.

Chapter 1. Times Have Changed

Li Wei wasn't lying to Zhiban Xia; the academy really was going to be disbanded. Just a few days ago, Li Wei received news from back home that he was preparing to disband the academy. Otherwise, he would have to use the academy as a "sacrifice," killing a chicken of sufficient weight to show the monkeys.

Li Wei would naturally not allow his confidantes to be in danger. Moreover, he had been behind the scenes pushing the domestic operations forward. The fact that China was able to quickly achieve mass production of the Hundred Armor Crystal and smoothly overcome one mass production technical difficulty after another was due to his support.

Without Li Wei's paving the way, it would have been impossible for China to launch a large-scale mass production plan in such a short period of time.

When Li Wei returned to the main road, he saw Gengshi Tatemu waiting for him.

"Hey, it feels like it's been a long time, Li Weijun." Geng Shishun stood with his hands behind his back, his crisp school uniform billowing in the sunset, his light blue shorts billowing in the sea breeze, a picture of beauty.

Li Wei laughed and said, "We see each other every day at the academy, so there's no need to feel like we haven't seen each other in a long time."

Geng Shishun walked to Li Wei's side and walked alongside him.

"You don't mind that I smell sweaty? It's really pungent when we're this close," Li Wei laughed.

Geng Shishun said, "It seems you really don't understand, Li Weijun. For girls, this kind of scent is simply irresistible. If I didn't know you never used perfume, I would have thought you were wearing a special fragrance. This is probably the scent of hormones."

Li Wei said, "Say what you will, but you've been one of the busiest people lately. The preparations for the school festival must have been quite troublesome. And we'll need your help with the rest of the event."

Geng Shishun was one of the insiders who knew that the academy was about to be disbanded. Although she was shocked when she first heard the news, she accepted the reality in a very short time after learning the reason for the disbandment.

Geng Shishun sighed, "You have to come even if you're busy. After all, I'm still waiting for you to save my life."

Li Wei said, "With the power of the Gengshi family, it would be difficult for anyone to harm you."

Geng Shishun said, "But the problem lies within. I managed to break free of the restraints through my own strength, but I can't pull Zan out of that quagmire. Now, those old guys have their eyes on Zan. Does our previous agreement still stand?"

Li Wei said, "Of course it counts. I don't have the habit of going back on my word. I will see this through to the end. Even if the academy is gone, protecting her will still not be a problem for me."

What she found even more remarkable was Li Wei's words. Li Wei was a man of his word, and this time the situation had changed, so she was somewhat worried. That's why she came here to wait for Li Wei, wanting to know his specific attitude and obtain his new promise.

Geng Shishun said, "The world is about to change. I've always used the academy as a protective umbrella, but who knew that this protective umbrella would disappear so easily? The world is truly unpredictable."

Li Wei laughed and said, "The White Knight incident was only ten years ago, but in this era, let alone ten years, even a year is enough for many major events to happen. In this chaotic world, turning things around is a good thing."

She sighed. As a beneficiary of the White Knight incident, she was biased and her words were naturally not entirely true. However, she also understood that the era of extreme feminism was about to end, and that "revenge" was on the horizon.

The more rampant feminism was in the past, the more miserable women's lives will be in the future, with their personal rights even reverting to the situation of the 1910s, being driven out of society and back into the home, with no chance of redemption.

Geng Shizan is a woman of exceptional vision. Because she understands things clearly, she knows the seriousness of the situation. Even if a change comes, she, like an eel, can still thrive. However, her younger sister, Geng Shizan, does not have such ability. Therefore, she is now looking for a way out for her sister in advance.

She had already learned some key information about Li Wei through the chairman's channels. Although the chairman was vague, he did let her know that staying by Li Wei's side would prevent her from being affected by the chaos. That alone was enough.

The times can be ruthless; it's better to be a dog in a prosperous era than a human in a chaotic one. This proverb has similar meanings in countries around the world, and I, Shi Shi Wu, am very clear about this.

Geng Shishun said, "Overcorrection is necessary, but it will inevitably go too far. In the future, many innocent ordinary women will be harmed. Once the negative emotions that men have suppressed for ten years are released, the destructive power will overturn the old world order. To be honest, even an old hand like me is afraid. After all, I personally experienced the crazy period after the White Knight incident."

Li Wei laughed and said, "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, that's human nature. If we don't let them vent, holding it in will only cause bigger trouble. Anyway, in this kind of environment, it's enough to protect the people around us."

Geng Shidun nodded. Although the academy had announced its dissolution, she estimated that the chairman would not easily give up the island where the academy was located. After all, it was the foundation of their livelihood. However, whether they could ultimately hold on to it depended on how much influence Li Wei had.

Geng Shishun said, "After the chairman announces the dissolution of the academy, the family will definitely let Zan go back. At that time, I will withstand the pressure and keep her here. She will stay by your side."

Li Wei said, "I've also looked into the Gengshi family. They're a black-glove family that specializes in shady dealings. They used to work for Russia, and now they're with Japan. In the end, they're a family that bullies the weak and fears the strong. I'll take care of this pressure for you. If the Gengshi family has any objections, he can come to me."

Even though she couldn't bring herself to dislike Li Wei's chauvinism, it wasn't in the usual strange ways that men were chauvinistic. Li Wei's chauvinism appeared at crucial moments, in important places where support was needed. This kind of chauvinism was what made him the pillar of his family and even his clan. Any woman with a sound mind wouldn't dislike this kind of chauvinism that could protect his family from hardship.

Gengshi Tate said, "Thank you."

Li Wei laughed and said, "Then what will you, Chairman, use to thank me?"

Gengshi Tsuru blinked and said, "Soon, my sister and I will be kicked out of the Gengshi family, and we don't have anything to repay you with. How about me? It shouldn't be too shabby as a thank-you gift, right?"

Geng Shiwu, a seasoned veteran, seized the opportunity to find suitable backers for himself and his sister.

Chapter 4. The Night Changes

A few days later, the school festival arrived as scheduled, and the entire academy was filled with a festive atmosphere. Except for the security and intelligence departments, the other departments were able to relax for once.

Even Li Wei himself enjoyed the atmosphere. Every school festival is different. Li Wei has participated in quite a few school festivals, including the Tokyo University of the Arts festival in the real world, the University of Tokyo's school festival, and the Toyosaki Academy school festival in the world of Saekano: How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend. Different school festivals have their own characteristics, just like every natural beauty has her own unique charm.

Inside the chairman's office, Li Wei stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the campus. Because of the school festival, students and faculty members were gathered in the main square and the beach. The chairman's office could clearly see the main square, but only a part of the beach was visible.

The chairperson was wearing a form-fitting and revealing evening gown, or rather, a sexy dress that resembled an evening gown.

The beautiful young woman gracefully approached Li Wei from behind, wrapping her arms around his neck and pressing her cheek against his back. Despite her tall stature, she didn't appear as petite as other girls when facing Li Wei.

"It's all coming to an end. It's a bit of a pity, but all good things must come to an end. Even the most intimate relationships have a beginning and an end. I wonder how many people will be able to keep up with us," the chairman said softly.

Li Wei never intended to take everyone with him. Although there's a saying that forced love is never sweet, it might quench thirst, but Li Wei wasn't interested in such things. He'd never lacked women around him, so he wouldn't be so bored as to force a result. Anyway, the important girls around him would go with him, and that was enough.

Li Wei felt the soft touch behind him. Although he was a loving person and could find beauty in all kinds of beauties, he still preferred fully grown mature beauties, such as the chairman and Yamada Maya. They were the ones who touched his heart the most. Mature and considerate older sisters were always more charming than those girls who still needed to be taken care of.

After all, although young girls are lively, their emotions are not stable enough, and sometimes they need to be coaxed and pampered. On the other hand, mature and sensible older sisters can understand other people's difficulties, making it more comfortable to get along with them.

The chairman said, "Now, let's do something meaningful here."

Li Wei turned around and picked up the chairman in a princess carry, laughing, "As you wish, in a few days, this place will no longer belong to us. However, I will replicate some of the buildings on the floating island. I think the relatively familiar environment should help you adapt to it more quickly."

Although doing that in broad daylight was considered a waste of time by the older generation, Li Wei was never a conventional person; he was a very free individual when it came to enjoying pleasure.

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

The school festival is still going on. As the last school festival of the academy, the academy has extended the festival time. Since it is the last one, it doesn't matter if it lasts longer. It's just to leave students and faculty with a good memory.

Just as the school festival was in progress, the country officially announced the existence of the Hundred Armed Crystals. At the same time, more than 3,000 regular troops armed with crystals completed their control over IS armored pilots in various regions, and finally, more than ten years after the White Knight incident, they successfully restored absolute control over the country.

In the past, although there were warriors like Huang Lingyin who were absolutely loyal to their country, there were more IS pilots who abused their power for their own selfish interests. Previously, the authorities were limited by their own insufficient power and had no way to manage these things, so they could only keep enduring it.
