I'm just an internet cafe owner

Liu Yuan was quite happy to do this kind of thing, as it was like earning extra money. If it was teleportation within the same world, the cost would only be around ten yuan, but this was a monopolized technology, so he deserved to earn twenty times that amount.
At the same time, Liu Yuan was also very curious about the fact that the internet cafe customer had started an internet cafe. He wondered what kind of internet cafe this Demon King would run after learning how to manipulate negative emotions from Yuri.
"Could it be an illegal internet cafe?"
Liu Yuan realized the other party's ultimate goal and suddenly became worried. His internet cafe was expensive, but the prices were clearly marked and it was worth it. However, if Zhen Aowu had built the internet cafe to rip people off, aiming to create negative emotions, then who knew what kind of disgusting, backstabbing, or other offensive tactics he might pull?
After all, it's a technological monopoly; take it or leave it. Some might even say that the real Owuo plans to use this internet cafe to spread his ideas and change the world.
"Ee~"
Thinking about all this, Liu Yuan shuddered. Seeing Liu Yuan suddenly tremble, Mu Geng asked curiously, "What are you thinking about? Getting carried away?"
"Stop your lewd behavior. I just suddenly thought of something. If our internet cafe suddenly loses power, or the network drops when you get rare gear, or the power goes out when you're having the most fun playing adult games, how long do you think I could survive?"
Upon hearing this, Kisara reached out and touched Liu Yuan's forehead: "Are you crazy? You still want to live after something like this? If it really happens, we can't talk about the Circular Principle and Fanlou, but you personally created these two, so think about how you're going to deal with them."
Liu Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "Don't worry, I won't do that, but... never mind, it's their world, let them play by themselves."
Thus, Takeo Shinonome received some technical support from Liu Yuan, and also learned some of Liu Yuan's true teachings. For example, how to win over poor customers, and how to create games.
Although the machines created by the machine race aren't part of the real game world, they represent a revolutionary advancement for this world, bordering on miraculous. As long as the game doesn't intentionally create grotesque or unpleasant content, and instead just experiences frequent disconnections and network outages, the monopolistic power of the machine will surely attract players.
As for poaching people? There's absolutely no need to worry. After all, only when True Owuo has made enough money can he spend more at internet cafes!
As I said before, if you control a monopolistic technology, you don't need to worry about a lack of customers. What?
Copying from another world? Plagiarism? Liu Yuan wasn't worried about that at all, after all, his boss knew people, and the box weapon was also a very threatening thing.
If it's just a threat, that's one thing. Every world knows one thing: when a world is in the right and possesses the right to attack, that world is truly willing to fight you.
After all, there are interests between worlds. The technology of the four-dimensional internet cafe was not developed by a single world, but by the world masters of two large worlds in conjunction with the support of countless miscellaneous entities from smaller worlds.
But that's not important, because Shin'ou has already created the space to set up an internet cafe and is preparing to build one in his own world. What he doesn't know is that his internet cafe will one day lead to him getting a severe beating.
Chapter 583 The Demon King's Anime-Style Internet Cafe Has Arrived: The Hero
Looking at the twenty computers in the spacious room and the front desk of the imitation Mind Space Internet Cafe, Shin'o Takeo fell into deep thought.
After a week, he finally opened his internet cafe. The computers provided by Jikai didn't need power; they could be used as long as they were turned on. He also got a variety of games, including all the universally acknowledged heartwarming games in the internet cafe scene.
In games like Clannad, although you can't truly experience the game world, you can still feel some physical touches.
There's also The Legend of Sword and Fairy. Although you can't learn magic or freely experience the real storyline, the first Legend of Sword and Fairy, with its complete storyline, was so moving that even the first-time player of the true story, Takeo, cried buckets.
Incidentally, in order to elicit stronger negative emotions, all the happy endings in both games were removed.
Like the first Legend of Sword and Fairy game? First, a complete wipeout ending. Then, when the player starts a second playthrough wanting to save the others? No problem! Takeo Shin'ou, under Liu Cixin's guidance, even included that in the Legend of Sword and Fairy remake. Now comes the truly insane part: the second playthrough can enter a Musou mode, inheriting all the attributes from the first playthrough, unleashing a devastating attack, saving everyone from tragedy, and then, in the final ending, waking up from the dream.
Clannad? The cycle of light? Yes! Time travel? Yes! However, when players finally complete the game, they will find that it was just a dream of the game's protagonist.
And it's the kind of story that lets you experience the most wonderful things in the world first, and then stabs you in the chest with a 40-meter-long knife covered in salt.
But when you keep exploring forward, thinking there might be a good ending, all you see is the handle of a knife. All your efforts ultimately come to nothing.
As confirmed by Boss Liu, "If you do this, you'll definitely reap negative emotions comparable to the death of your entire family. You'd better be prepared!"
"Boss! I'm ready to unleash the power that will make me invincible!!!"
Shin'ou laughed triumphantly, while his strategist, Elsil, had a bad feeling. But now that internet cafes had been established, Shin'ou had even temporarily resigned in order to develop them.
Elsil: "Demon Lord, is it really alright to do this?"
As a participant in this project, he naturally followed Makoto Shinonome to experience the games at the internet cafe, and then experienced the games created by his own Demon Lord.
Based on his experience, he judged that local games alone could make the people of the Holy Cross Continent addicted, and through these games, these people could also do what their Demon King expected.
However, he always felt that he had forgotten something.
Shin-chan: "It's alright! Let's open our internet cafe!!!"
Takeo Shin'ou is now filled with hope for the future of the Demon World. What's this kind of maneuver called? Deus Ex! Takeo Shin'ou seems to be shouting, "How can Deus Ex lose?!"
Lucifer: "So, what should our shop be called?"
Lucifer was very happy about the opening of the internet cafe, because he had already started playing on the new computers there, and he had to admit that the things his Demon Lord had brought back were really fun.
Shin'o Takeo: "I already have a good name. I overheard the seniors talking about it, and the things on the computers are considered '2D,' so this internet cafe will be called! '2D Internet Cafe'!"
"... "
"As expected of the Demon King."
So, the internet cafe he founded opened for business.
After all, selecting guests within a designated area in his own world is extremely easy. Sure enough, after he announced the opening of the internet cafe and gave Boss Liu a large commission, the internet cafe's teleportation mechanism began operating.
However, the teleportation mechanism immediately sent him to someone he hadn't expected: the hero Yusa Emi.
"Where am I? Aren't I at home?"
Yusa Emi had just finished work and returned home a second ago, and the next second she was teleported to the anime-themed internet cafe run by Maou Takeo. Upon seeing the first customer, Maou Takeo's expression froze, and the heroine Yusa Emi also showed a serious expression.
"Demon King, what tricks have you played this time!"
At this moment, Yusa Emi was ready for battle. Takeo Masao panicked for a moment, then his face turned serious: "This is the internet cafe I recently opened! Would you like to try some of our games? Since you're a hero, I'll waive your fees."
"Huh? You own an internet cafe?"
Takeo Shin'o nodded and said, "Yes, don't you want to experience my scheme for yourself?"
Upon hearing this, Yusa Emi frowned. If this Demon King were to truly begin destroying the world, she would do everything in her power to defeat him. But the Demon King did not; instead...
And this is how she set up an internet cafe? Although she entered through teleportation, teleportation magic is not uncommon in her world.
She assumed that the Demon King possessed certain powers and sent her here via a fixed-point teleportation method.
She subconsciously looked outside; it was still the city, and she could even see airplanes flying overhead.
"Let me see what you're up to."
"Come on! Try it as you like!!"
Thanks to going to the internet cafe, he was able to use his assets in the Demon Realm normally.
Despite his thoughts, Shin'o still followed the instructions the internet cafe manager gave him, helping Yusa Emi enter the game world. Unlike the computers in the internet cafe, the computers here were real computers; it was just that the players' experience was more realistic.
Yusa Emi asked in disbelief, "This is... a game? You opened an internet cafe just so people could play games? Was this what you went to the internet cafe for the other day?"
She didn't know what evil plans the Demon King had that day, or even that were so evil as to incite a mob to beat her up, but looking at this well-equipped internet cafe and the virtual reality technology, she felt that she had misunderstood him.
Yusa Emi knew how to use a computer. Looking at the many games in the internet cafe, she asked curiously, "Any recommendations?"
Anyway, this is Earth, where magic is scarce, and she has kept a lot of holy magic, so she's not afraid of what this real Owulf might do.
At this moment, Takeo Shin smiled and said, "Of course it's Clannad. It's a very healing game. In this game, you can experience a person's growth from a first-person perspective."
Although it's called a game, the computer-generated content makes it feel more like a first-person TV series or anime, except that you have a certain sense of perspective and choices.
Yusa Emi clicked on the game, and once she started playing, she was hooked. In the game, she became a high school student, experiencing the daily life of a Japanese student, and fell in love with a cute girl named Furukawa Nagisa.
Her lover is pregnant, and she's working hard in the game. But later in the story, Yusa Emi, the hero, turns evil.
Chapter 584 The Hero: "I can't tell! I can't tell at all!"
Her wife died, her daughter died. A miracle occurred in her small town, granting her the ability to reverse time and change the past. However, when she looked at her happy wife and child, she woke up from her dream.
If you're watching through a screen, the stimulation isn't the most intense. But the machines created by the Machines can really stimulate the player's senses; the player can truly feel the process of reincarnation, the joy of their wife and daughter surviving, and the hopeful future.
The result is a sudden awakening, as if from a dream. But unlike a dream, players can actually feel these experiences and savor these feelings.
It would be one thing if he simply woke up, but he woke up holding his daughter's ashes.
There is also a final sentence left on it.
"There is no such thing as traveling back in time and reversing cause and effect in this world. It is just the last shred of fantasy of a person whose heart has died."
Looking at the last sentence and the urn in her arms, Yusa Emi instinctively learned the phrase "the shattering of one's spiritual heart."
Meanwhile, Shin'o Wufu and Elsil in the internet cafe also felt a powerful negative force.
"This power! Is it merely the hero's negative emotions? Unbelievable, truly unbelievable! The Demon Realm's resurgence is imminent!!!"
However, Elsil and Lucifer, witnessing the situation inside the internet cafe, both tiptoed out simultaneously. While they felt their power returning, they also witnessed the hero's corruption.
A hero who has been cleansed of his evil ways is three times weaker and ten times stronger. Even if a hero who has been corrupted loses his power, the real Takeo would feel terrified if he instantly regained ninety percent of his power.
"Satan, the Demon King..."
"what?"
Hearing someone call his name, Takeo Shinonome instinctively turned his head, and then he felt a terror that seemed to come from hell. He saw that Emi Yusa had already drawn her weapon and was pointing it at Takeo Shinonome.
"Prepare to die!!!"
Without any explanation or unnecessary words, the weapon was aimed directly at his vitals. What? Go back? No, she wasn't going back. Today, she would rid the people of this scourge!
What? The opponent has recovered 90% of their strength, while I'm only at less than half? Whatever, just kill them.
"What are you doing?!"
"I'll kill you, I'll kill you, I'll kill you!!!"
"You can't beat me right now."
Makoto's tone was resolute; the negative emotions emanating from the hero were so powerful that his strength was rapidly recovering. But just as he was about to retaliate, he stopped.
"Give me back tide, give me back Zhu, why, why? They did nothing wrong, so why do they deserve to die? Why?"
Yusa Emi's tone was somewhat hysterical. Although the gaming experience on the PC was not as good as that in an internet cafe, for Yusa Emi, this gaming experience was exactly the same as a real gaming experience.
She watched her daughter being born, and even went out to work for her daughter, not daring to eat or drink, working three jobs every day just so that her daughter's living environment could be better.
In the game, through letters and annual visits home, she witnessed her daughter growing up little by little. Hearing her daughter call out "Daddy!" and seeing her daughter happily hugging her toys, how could a hero who saves humanity not empathize with her?
In the game, she completely immersed herself in the role of the protagonist.
Perspective. Her personality led her to choose the path of working for her only daughter instead of taking a path of decadence. In the end, she discovered that no amount of money could compare to being by her daughter's side.
In the flower field, watching her daughter run and cry in her arms, she gradually became completely immersed in the game. Her daughter's death was a huge blow, but still within her control; after all, she could distinguish between reality and virtuality.
When she learned that she could save her daughter and even change the past through the Light Orbs, she embarked on a path of change, meeting one companion after another, experiencing countless trials, and finally obtaining all the Light Orbs to save her daughter's future. But in the end, she was told that it was all a lie.
Seeing Yusa Emi consumed by anger, despair, and hatred, Takeo Shinonome shouted, "This is just a game! It's fake! Wake up! Don't sink into the virtual world. Don't try to find reality in the virtual world! This is reality. You are a hero. If you really encounter them, you and your companions can save them. If I encounter them, I will help them at all costs. I also want to build a world where everyone can be happy."
Sensing the threat of death, Takeo Shinonome was suddenly struck by a philosophical impulse: he wanted to awaken the heroine before him. He knew that if he didn't wake her, he would face an end far worse than death.
Facing the size of Takeo Shin's body, Yusa Emi gave a miserable smile: "Virtual? Real? It doesn't matter, I can't tell the difference! I can't tell the difference! I'm going to kill you."
