The Rise of Otaku

Chapter 171 the graduation ceremony

Edited by Esperanza

Waking up every morning, in the courtyard, Zhou Yu could always see Oba and the fast-hand Wang flying in the mini forest, performing their lightness Kung Fu skill, while launching a variety of literary style attacks. Zhou Yu didn’t know if they all liked martial arts novels or what. To them, making fighting postures was much more important than fighting itself.

After a few days, Zhou Yu finally knew why they had to fight each other. Because in the creative tree, which grew taller gradually, unexpectedly, descended a girl with holy aura, and the fast-handed Wang and Oba immediately knelt down when they saw the girl, showing a submissiveness look.

Oba just came to the village, so Zhou Yu did not know his character, but the fast-handed Wang’s arrogant temperament was something that Zhou Yu had experienced. Normally, it was not possible for him to kneel towards a woman. Unable to resist his curiosity, Zhou Yu asked the king of thieves, “who is this girl?”

“The apprentice goddess of creativity. Probably came from the temple of creativity. I’ve been there before, they didn’t have anything valuable, a group of very poor people.”

Raising his thumb at the king of thieves, Zhou Yu was amazed that, it seemed like there was no place he had not been to. He was truly a legendary adventurer. But the title, the goddess of creativity, seemed pretty badass, and it probably because of this title that, the fast-handed Wang and Oba were so obedient.

Apprentice goddess Luo Shui, the protector of the creative tree, she could give worshipers creativity bonuses.

Worshipers could be an individual or a building. For example, the buildings that were available to worship the creative tree in Luhua village were the animation base, the comic studio, and the game company. The individual would be this wondering Producer Oba.

However, it was a pity that this level of the tree was so low that, it could only accept two units of worshipers.

Luo Shui gracefully arrived before Zhou Yu, after greeting, she said, “honorable Mr. Zhou Yu, your merits have been recognized by the temple of the ACG world. We now officially grant you the title, the guardian of Luhua village, this is your due honor.”

‘Holy shit, I did not expect that one day I would become an official of the ACG world.’ But after he looked at himself in the mirror, apart from having an extra line on his head, nothing else seemed to be changed.

“Please decide on the worshipers for the creative tree.”

This was slightly difficult. There was only a total of two units, which one should he choose?

The comic studio definitely needed it because one of its upgrade requirements was the creative tree. That leaves two buildings and one person to choose between.

The game company could be temporarily left aside because apart from the creative tree, there was also one more condition, which was currently still showing a question mark. Probably the necessary conditions have not been met. But there was Yang Kuai at the animation base, he needed the creative tree just as much as Oba did.

One was his own son and the other was a newly joined ‘wandering’ villager. The choice should have been very clear. However, from the perspective of the development of mini Luhua village, it really should be given to the producer. Because in addition to making programs, he also had the ability to help idols, which was very attractive to the three idols in Luhua village.

After thinking it over and over again, the place of worshiper was still given to Oba. In the future when the creative tree was upgraded, then he would give Yang Kuai one as well.

“Worshipers are, the comic artist the fast-handed Wang, and the wandering producer Oba, please confirm!”

“Confirm.”

In this way, the two guys, who didn’t like each other, completed the oath under the sacred tree.

......

The summer vacation was coming, this year’s Luhua primary school’s graduates all received the invitation from Zhou Yu. In the newly built fantasy City, their graduation ceremony was hosted.

The wondrous fantasy city was no longer a place that, was filled with the tents that had been hastily built. It now had real walls, tiled roads, and a central park covered in flowers. It had 4 major game centers and 12 camping sites with a total of more than 100 employees. It could serve ordinary tourists, or students to carry out their summer camp activities. It could now be considered as a relatively large theme project.

The same as before, the entrance was still a large dressing room, but this time they were not allowed to choose their dress, but all the dresses were the same. Those dresses were the dresses of the magical academy in the movie the dragon’s treasure, they were full of magical, elegant, and luxury flavor.

After dressing up, the bright-looking children got into the horse carriages that, had been waiting outside, made their way toward the main castle of the fantasy city.

Designed by the carpenter beaver and the stonemason monkey, the castle was absolutely magnificent and its main function was to hold a large banquet.

It was the first time for Little Rat and his friends to see such a luxurious place. They gasped in amazement and didn’t know what to do. The symphony orchestra, which had been hired from the city, directly pushed the entire atmosphere to another level. Even Mu Zi from the TV program crew also thought that it was too much just for a primary school graduation ceremony.

The teachers that, were also invited, all watched each other in shock. How much did that guy spend on this jaw-dropping ceremony exactly? At the same time, they also felt fortunate that all the dresses and areas were all provided by that young man for free, otherwise, they really wouldn’t know where to get money for this.

The ceremony was carried out like a luxurious palace banquet. As the planner of the ceremony, Mu Zi was also present, and he was very satisfied with the atmosphere at the scene. He also heard that the design and decoration of the castle all came from Zhou Yu. It made him wonder where he found all those designers to design such a perfect castle.

This was also what made Zhou Yu mysterious. He could always find some strange and very talented people, who no one was able to find out where they were. No wonder so many people wanted to dig out his secrets.

While Mu Zi felt pity for those talented people, he suddenly heard a sweet voice that came out of nowhere.

“Hello, Luhua primary school students, my name is Muli. I’m sorry that because of some reason, I can’t show up, but I wish you all the best. I hope you will study hard and grow up healthily in middle school. Also, don’t forget Luhua village.”

This sweet voice, no one knew where it came from, and children didn’t seem to care that much, they just like the song “sea in the sky” that she sang next. However, Mu Zi almost spat out the red wine. The mysterious Muli appeared here!?

Children may not know who she was, but Mu Zi was very clear, this Muli was currently very popular online! A girl who never showed up in public became popular overnight with only a movie dubbing and a song. How many people wanted to find out her real identity, how many companies were waiting to sign her, but she never once came out of the backstage.

But now, because of the graduation ceremony of an ordinary primary school, she finally came out?!

Mu Zi instantly became very excited, he quickly signaled the cameramen to find the hidden singer, but after they glanced around a circle, they still couldn’t find her.

“Is it possible that they are just playing a recording?” Said an assistant.

“Impossible. Didn’t you hear what she said earlier? That is definitely her voice. Check all the corners, and make sure you don’t miss a single person that is on the invitation list.”

The assistant hesitated and said, “but, we have an agreement with Mr. Zhou that we can’t disturb Mr. Zhou while filming.”

Mu Zi smiled and said, “our agreement is to not to disturb Mr. Zhou outside the fantasy city. But this is within the fantasy city, we didn’t breach the contract.”

As long as they could find the mysterious singer Muli, everything was worth it.
