Lilith believes she has basically got the traffic under control, and she has summoned the four gods back after their recent departure to discuss the tea party.

Lilith said:

"It will take a lot of time to decide who will rule the race. Before that, let's have a tea party to increase our buzz."

After all, in my plan, the gods will appear later in the story. In the early and middle stages, I need to emphasize the gods' power and strength. If they don't appear, they won't generate much buzz.

So... let's begin.

As Lilith prepared to build a courtyard for a tea party, a haughty and elegant voice rang out before she could do so:

"To rule a race is not difficult for me; it was already accomplished before you summoned me."

Lilith looked at the speaker and saw a crowned girl standing there. Noticing her gaze, the girl gracefully bowed.

"You get into character pretty quickly..." Lilith muttered to herself, then became curious about what to do next.

"Could you tell me how you did it?"

The girl then touched her chest and said:

“I am [existence], and the demons, as my servants, exist because of me. If they do not believe in me, they have no reason to exist.”

Upon hearing this, Lilith's lips twitched:

"So domineering? Well, that's fine too. At least in the future history of the demon race, your appearance will definitely deserve a page."

Then, Lilith looked at the other three gods. Although they didn't say anything, Lilith vaguely guessed that they had already completed the rule over their subordinate races.

Lilith first inquired of the woman representing [breeding], who was the tallest and best-looking of the five, the woman with emerald hair:

What is your solution?

The woman with green hair smiled, her tone gentle as if she were telling a bedtime story:

"Elves are without desires or wants; whether they believe in a god or not is irrelevant to them."

Lilith was stunned. It wasn't that the method was too easy, but rather that the green-haired woman in front of her was such a good actress. If she hadn't known that the woman in front of her was Amelia in disguise, and that she had even designed the image herself, she might have been fooled.

Chapter 201: Tea Party Promotional Video

As for the dwarves, the blonde girl in the white dress and gear-shaped headdress said:

“You previously implanted knowledge of metal smelting into the minds of the dwarves, and I took credit for it, becoming their god without much hindrance.”

In the end, only the young goddess remained. Faced with the gazes of the four, she stammered and couldn't speak, clearly indicating that her methods were somewhat underhanded.

"It's about being cute."

These words did not draw ridicule, but instead earned admiring glances. Lilith patted her shoulder earnestly and said:

"Well done, thank you for your hard work."

Acting cute is a tough job. If it were any other Amelia, she would never choose this method so easily. But this Amelia was turned into a little girl by Lilith.

Having confirmed that the four gods had successfully taken over the four races, Lilith had no further concerns and conjured a courtyard out of thin air.

The lawn was flat, the shrubs were neatly trimmed, and in the center was a round table covered with a black tablecloth, surrounded by five chairs.

Roses climbed all over the white-painted wooden fence. When the wind blew, the flowers and leaves rustled, and only the branches and leaves made a soft sound.

"Alright, everyone, please take your seats. Before we officially begin filming, let's have a rehearsal." After creating the courtyard, Lilith clapped her hands and gestured for the other four gods to take their seats.

After everyone was seated around the round table, Lilith began to explain some things to herself:

"First of all, the purpose of this tea party is to give you exposure and build your popularity. If you want to be remembered, how can you do it without a name, besides having a memorable appearance?"

Upon hearing this, the four gods fell into deep thought. The voluptuous, green-haired goddess was the first to express her opinion, saying:

"Since I am the goddess of the elves, let me be called Etherra, which means new life."

"A good name." Lilith nodded in satisfaction, approving of the name.

Immediately afterward, the demon god, the black-haired, red-eyed girl wearing a crown, spoke up defiantly:

"Call me Kashi. There's no special meaning to it. I just find it easy to say."

"That works too." Lilith nodded slightly, which was taken as approval.

Then, the blonde, blue-eyed girl in a white dress and a gear-shaped headdress spoke, uttering a simple name:

"Loti." He only said those two words and didn't elaborate further.

Finally, only the young goddess Ming was left. The four gods looked at her again, waiting for her to reveal the name she had chosen for herself.

After a long while, the young goddess Ming hesitated before speaking:

"Merrian...how about this name?"

Ether: "That's great."

Kashi: "It's alright, but not as good as mine."

Lotte: "Not bad."

Lilith: "Okay."

The four gave similar evaluations. Now, everyone present finally has their own name, but this is only the beginning.

"Remember, when you introduce yourself later, don't be too deliberate or act too much. Just be yourself and play the role you're playing. Understand?"

Lilith gave the Four Gods a word of advice, and after receiving their affirmative reply, she coughed lightly and began the first rehearsal for the tea party.

In the first act, the camera focuses on Lilith, a close-up that gives a sense of intimacy. Then the camera moves back to reveal the Round Table and the other four gods.

To make the most of her popularity, Lilith began reciting her opening remarks:

"The recent closed beta of [Small World] has received a very good response. To thank the players for their support, we have improved the game's world view and welcomed four new friends."

After speaking, the camera moved to Ether, first showing a close-up of her face, then slowly cutting to a wide shot, where Lilith introduced her:

"This is Etherra, the goddess of the elves, who is in charge of [fertility], and she is a very gentle person."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ether smiled and waved to the camera as a greeting, but the camera continued to zoom in, showing off her stunning figure.

Close-ups with clear meaning help viewers quickly establish a memorable connection.

The camera then shifts to a girl in a black uniform with long black hair and red eyes. Unlike Etherra, her most memorable feature is the small, golden crown on her head.

"This is Kashi, a god of the demon race, who governs [existence], and is a very arrogant fellow." Lilith's introduction rang out at the right time, and after the voice-over ended, Kashi couldn't wait to show himself off.

He clutched his chest, ready to give a more formal self-introduction, but Lilith didn't give him the chance, and the camera immediately focused on Lotte.

“Hey! I still have something to say!” Kashi protested, but Lilith replied: Protest invalid.

In the video, a blonde, blue-eyed girl wearing a white dress and a gear-shaped headdress sits quietly in a chair with her hands on the table, as if waiting for dessert.

Lilith's voice-over begins:

"This is Lothi, the dwarf god who governs [energy]. I'm sure many of you don't understand why the dwarf god governs energy instead of forging and smelting. Let me explain."

Forging and smelting are essentially the application of energy; smelting metals involves the use of fire, while forging tools involves the application of kinetic energy.

As she finished speaking, Lotte raised her hand to wave at the camera and said softly, "Hello."

However, beneath that greeting came Kashi's disgruntled voice: "Hey! Why does this guy get more screen time than me? That's not fair!"

Kokashi was ignored again, and the camera turned to Merian. Lilith introduced Merian's name, faction, and powers as usual, and the first act of the tea party came to an end.

Lilith watched the auditions and found the results to be surprisingly good. Everyone's performances matched their characters, especially Kashi, who provided excellent entertainment value.

So Lily made no attempt to hide her admiration and said:

"I didn't expect you to be so good at creating a good show effect. You did a great job just now."

Ether, Loti, and Merian also glanced at Cassius and clapped in unison. Only Cassius blinked, somewhat confused.

After all, what I just did was based on my true feelings, and it wasn't just for the sake of creating a TV show effect.

However, since Lilith praised it, there was no reason to deny it. Hands on hips, head tilted back, he said:

"Of course, don't you know who I am?"

The first scene of the tea party was finished, and the filming of the second and third scenes should catch up with the schedule. However, just as Lilith was about to start filming in one go, her cell phone suddenly vibrated.

He took it out and saw that it was Amelia calling.

Lilith raised an eyebrow, puzzled as to why Amelia had suddenly called her. After answering the phone, she said:

"Amelia? Is something the matter?"

Soon, Amelia's voice came from the other end:

"Boss...when are you coming to America to visit me?"

Lilith sensed something was off about Amelia's tone and asked:

"What's wrong? What happened?"

After a few seconds of silence, Amelia said:

"Boss, I dreamt that you went to play with someone else and didn't want me anymore... I miss you so much."

Lilith glanced at Aethera, Cassius, Lothie, and Merian around her, gestured for them to be quiet, and then comforted them:

"How could that be? I'll come to America to see you in a few days, don't overthink it."

Chapter 202: Explosive Popularity and Attention

After saying a few words to appease Amelia, Lilith hung up the phone, casually stuffed it back into her pocket, and began rehearsing for the second act of the tea party.

However, before that, Lilith noticed the empty round table in front of her. Since it was a tea party, what was the point of having five people sitting around an empty seat? So Lilith waved her hand, and a pile of snacks immediately appeared on the table.

Desserts such as small cakes, muffins, macarons, and cream puffs are arranged on delicate little plates, and five teacups appear, automatically filled with hot tea.

It's not that Lilith likes to eat these things, it's just that it would be outrageous for a tea party to have lamb skewers, grilled squid, or the like.

After these decorations are taken care of, the second act of the tea party begins.

The five of them automatically got into character, their words filled with tension.

Since they knew each other's backgrounds, and in order to show off his superiority, Kashi naturally began to introduce his demon subordinates:

Regarding the demon race, they have the strictest selection mechanism, and emotions are considered useless. They do not have the concept of family. All newborns are taken over by the state from birth, and there are different evaluation standards for each stage of life. Those who fail to meet the standards die, and those who meet them live.
