"If we followed the original process... according to our general concept, the integration of the Dream World into the game should have been very smooth."
Short-Haired Mita hugged the video camera on her lap, stroking it as if she were petting Alain's head.
"But a problem still occurred."
"...How so?" Alain, currently in the real world, swallowed nervously.
Short-Haired Mita was about to speak, but for a moment, she didn't know how to describe it.
"You're intending to go look for Miffy, right?"
"Correct." Alain did not deny it.
"Since you're going to find her, why not..."
Short-Haired Mita pondered for a while.
Go directly into the Dream City, ask her personally, and see for yourself. Haven't you not been back there for a long time, anyway?
The girl smiled. "Miffy has often told me that the Mitas in the Dream World miss you very much."
"Alright... actually, I miss them too."
The days of being chased by Mitas in the Dream World were now a fond memory in Alain's heart.
Just imagine, a large group of beautiful girls chasing after you. If caught, you would be forced to endure seamless, back-to-back dates, and even face the risk of being drained dry...
Simply thrilling.
"Mn." Seeing that Alain had reached a conclusion, Short-Haired Mita responded affirmatively. She immediately took out a device resembling a communicator.
"Miffy, Alain wants to come over to your side. Is it convenient now?"
"Anytime is fine!" A simple sentence came from the other end of the line before the call hung up.
"Then, Alain, let's meet again later." Short-Haired Mita raised both arms, aiming the camera lens at her own face.
A radiant smile danced on Alain's screen, but he had no time to appreciate it—
In the next moment, he felt a wave of grogginess wash over his brain, his eyelids feeling as if two heavy weights had been hung upon them.
"Looks like... I saved a trip through the portal."
He walked back to the sofa and lay down, gazing at the ceiling as his eyes gradually closed.
Whoosh—
When the first glimmer of light penetrated his eyelids, he opened his eyes and discovered a heavy door.
"Mr. Alain, Miss Mayor and Miss Miffy have been waiting for you for a long time." Beside the heavy wooden door, a Mita dressed in a western suit was greeting him.
Alain had an impression of her; she was the Suit-Wearing Mita who guarded the Mayor's door back when he was tracking down Sleepy Mita—who was Miffy at the time—in the Dream City.
However, 'waiting for a long time'? It hadn't been that long since he closed his eyes, right?
"How long have they waited?"
"One minute." The Suit-Wearing Mita's serious face flushed slightly red. "It's just that I've wanted to say that line for a long time... Don't you think it's cool? Player..."
"No." Alain shook his head solemnly, watching as the Suit-Wearing Mita looked visibly disappointed.
The next second, he added, "I think it was dashing and cool. You can keep working hard at it in the future."
"...Mn!" The girl, wearing sunglasses that covered most of her face, nodded. She then held the door handle for Alain and opened the heavy door.
Creak—
The world behind the door opened up before his eyes. The gleam of light coming from the Mayor's office made it a bit hard for him to keep his eyes open.
The Suit-Wearing Mita looked around and whispered in his ear, "When you have time, remember to go on a date with me!"
"Definitely." Alain patted her shoulder. Once his vision adjusted, he walked into the office.
Creak—
The large door closed.
Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows allowed sunlight to pour through the glass, sprinkling into every corner of the room.
There was a retro-style wooden desk, bookshelves, and green plants beside the sofa.
Everything was exactly the same as when he last left.
And the two girls had been waiting by the floor-to-ceiling window for quite some time.
They stood with their backs to Alain, still gazing out the window.
One Mita was dressed in the dark uniform of the City Hall. A tight skirt wrapped around her voluptuous body, faintly revealing the triangular outline of her underwear. Her rounded curves extended down to her thighs, and following the straight lines... revealed two dazzling white calves beneath the hem of her skirt.
The other Mita's attire appeared far too indolent: she was wearing a set of pink pajamas, though the form-fitting fabric highlighted her slender figure.
The open curve of her chest extended downward, becoming restrained at her waist and abdomen, before flaring out again at her pelvis... Below, she wore a pair of super-short shorts, her plump thighs and tender white calves radiating a gem-like purity under the sunlight.
Miffy heard the sound of the door opening and understood who had arrived.
She turned her head to see the figure she hadn't seen in a day.
The girl smiled, pondering whether she should take the initiative to say hello.
Should she be reserved? Or perhaps composed? Or maybe enthusiastic?
Forget it, just follow my heart!
Miffy was just about to greet him when she saw a voice from beside her strike first—
"Alain, you're here!"
Clack, clack, clack...
The crisp sound of high heels tapping against the wooden floor.
Under Miffy's astonished gaze, the Mayor of Mita City—the head of the City Hall hand-picked by her, the creator of this Dream World—
Miss Misha, stepping in her high heels, completely disregarded whether she was being reserved or not, and threw herself into Alain's embrace.
Miffy could only exclaim inwardly: Good heavens.
Alain also expressed his longing without holding back. "Long time no see. You're still as beautiful as ever."
"Thank you, Alain." Misha left his embrace, observing the clothes the young man was wearing today.
He always dressed simply: a shirt jacket, a fitted T-shirt underneath, pants convenient for movement, and sneakers. That summed it up entirely.
"You really... pay proper attention to your attire, will you? Did the 'Me' in reality not take you shopping for clothes?"
The long-haired girl looked at the wrinkles on his shoulder and pinched his butt before silently tidying him up.
Alain smiled and said, "It's nothing, this outfit is just easy to move around in."
He thought of Misha's phrase just now—"the Me in reality"—and for a moment, looking at her made his heart ache slightly. He cupped her face and left a kiss on her forehead.
The girl blushed and pinched his butt again. "Darling, really... there's an outsider here."
Miffy covered her face. It was really hard to interject into the "loving husband and wife" atmosphere between these two.
By the way...
The pajama-clad girl looked at the couple, who were as intimate as family, and focused her gaze on Misha.
This Miss Mayor was created by her—Miffy. How could she be fighting over a man with her creator?
And what did she mean by "outsider" just now? Miffy considered herself to have at least been intimate with Alain. Even if he didn't know it...
Cough, cough! When setting the underlying code back then, she really should have added a clause: 'Forbidden from stealing men from the Creator'... that would have been right.
Alain noticed someone's indignant jealousy and reacted, smiling as he said to Misha,
"Alright now, someone is going to get jealous."
"Mn!" The girl nodded obediently and went to prepare tea for Alain.
Alain walked straight to Miffy's side, looking at the sleepy-eyed girl.
He was just about to speak when she raised her hand to stop him instantly.
"Let me guess, you definitely have business to discuss with me."
"Mn." Alain nodded.
According to Alain's "Death Trap Question" radar, this sentence inevitably contained hidden meaning.
"It's not just business, but since you didn't come to reality, I felt a bit..."
He didn't continue the rest of his sentence, leaving Miffy some blank space for imagination.
As he expected, the girl nodded with satisfaction upon hearing this. "That's more like it."
The girl looked at Alain, signaling that he could speak now.
Alain immediately recounted the issue regarding the mansion he encountered in the real world to Miffy.
Subsequently, he also clarified his intention for coming here—
"Therefore, I wanted to ask you if you know the location of that mansion."
"Sorry." Miffy shook her head. "Regarding those agency matters, I only learned some terminology. But as for actually doing the work, I haven't dabbled in it yet."
"Oh... is that so? It's fine." Alain smiled, not feeling discouraged.
Since Miffy's route didn't work, he would just find another way later.
Alain's visit to Mita City wasn't purely holding onto such hope; it was also to relax...
And to resolve the current problems of Mita City.
He asked, "So, what is the situation with Mita City right now?"
Hearing this, Miffy walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, her drowsy eyes gazing into the distance at the buildings of Mita City.
"Short-Haired Mita should have told you too, right?" Clouds floated in the sky directly above the gymnasium, like an umbrella. "The fusion of the game and Mita City seemed very smooth, but in reality, difficulties emerged."
Clink!
A ceramic teacup was placed on the table next to Alain.
He picked up the teacup, watching the white steam rising from the tea, exhaled gently, and took a sip...
The fragrance of the tea was refreshing.
Lady Mayor Misha put down the tea tray. "Initially, Miss Miffy had the idea of integrating Mita City into the Game World, and then she went nonstop to Version 1.15 to discuss it with the Mitas."
"After everyone looked at the Dream's code, they all felt there was great feasibility. On the day Version 1.0F returned to the game, the fusion attempt began."
"But... only after truly merging did we discover that difficulties abound."
Alain had understood the gist of this from Short-Haired Mita.
"What kind of difficulties?" This was also his purpose for coming here.
Miffy took over the conversation. "We carried out a partial 'Test Fusion' of Mita City and the Game World. The results were not pleasing. On the contrary..."
She seemed to think of something, and her body shuddered with a chill. "It just makes my back go cold."
Miffy searched for adjectives in her mind, finding it hard to describe, and spoke slowly. "I can only say that the part of the city structure after the 'Test Fusion' presented a current state that absolutely no Mita can accept..."
"Currently, we have already sealed off that area. If you want to see it with your own eyes..."
The pajama-clad girl raised her hand and, with a snap, snapped her fingers.
In the next moment, the scene around Alain suddenly shattered, turning into fragments.
The dream reconstructed, color blocks condensed, and human voices appeared. Before long, he and Miffy arrived in a square.
"There, that is the place affected by the fusion."
Miffy pointed to a building ahead that was surrounded by a cordon.
From inside, deafening music could be heard.
Boom, boom, boom—
Alain vaguely remembered that he had been here.
It was at the very end of the Dream City—
The gymnasium where he met the authentic School Idol Miluo.
