Ordinary Group Leader:
"Ahem."
Ordinary Group Leader:
"This isn't something a kid like you should know."
Just Like This Meow:
"Meow?"
Just Like This Meow:
"Meowth is already an adult, meow."
Meowth looked completely confused. It was clearly an adult—humans were so troublesome, meow.

Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"F*ck!"
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"My good mood got completely ruined! And it was because of barking!"
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"Why are you barking inside my head?! What the hell are you barking for?!"
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"You have no idea how that woman looked at me—that's a lifelong humiliation!"
---
Ordinary Group Leader:
"Pfft—HAHAHAHA!"
Ordinary Group Leader:
"Sorry, sorry. I've been professionally trained—I normally wouldn't laugh."
Ordinary Group Leader:
"I just couldn't hold it in this time."
Ordinary Group Leader:
"Even though your situation sounds miserable, I just can't stop laughing."
In Su Yunqing's mind, she could vividly imagine him being looked down upon, and she burst out laughing.

Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"…"
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"Alright, let's calm down."
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"So what exactly is this thing that appeared in my brain? According to the information, it's some kind of chat group connecting all worlds?"
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"And you're all people from other worlds?"
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"You expect me to believe this? Do you think I'm a three-year-old?"
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"I admit this technology is interesting. Even I would need some time to achieve this level—but that doesn't mean I can't."
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"And what's with the stuff in the background? Some well-made anime?"
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"You're not going to tell me you're actually characters from those anime, are you? That would be quite shocking."
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"This kind of thing might fool idiots dreaming of overnight success, but no normal person would believe it."

Turn Daigo into Soup:
"…I feel insulted."
Dongfang Bubai:
"…"
Worst Spirit:
"Doubt is normal. Usually, once the group leader uploads a memory copy of his world, they'll believe it."
When Kurumi Tokisaki first joined, she had similar thoughts. Her world was technologically advanced too—this kind of thing didn't seem impossible.
But all her doubts disappeared after watching the memory copy of Date A Live that Su Yunqing uploaded.
She then realized she was just a character in an anime world.
But so what?
Maybe her past actions and thoughts were controlled by an author—but now, after seeing her world's "memory," everything she does is no longer bound by that control, and has already deviated from the original future.
What is real? What is fake?
If her world is fictional, can you be sure yours is real?
Not necessarily.
That's why one's own will is the most important.

Ordinary Group Leader:
"This guy is a bit arrogant."
Ordinary Group Leader:
"@Child of Nature, have you figured out who he is?"
---
Child of Nature:
"More or less."
Child of Nature:
"He's the Lighthouse's richest man, and he entered the group while lying in bed—very… romantic."
Child of Nature:
"Iron Man."
Child of Nature:
"An early-stage Iron Man."
Child of Nature:
"Though it could be someone else—I haven't watched that many Lighthouse (Western) films."
---
Ordinary Group Leader:
"I also think he's that 'Shit-da-ke' (Stark), but I'm not sure."
Ordinary Group Leader:
"After all, Batman is also a rich guy in Western media."
Ordinary Group Leader:
"But if it were Batman, he'd probably speak more cautiously."
---
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"Let me remind you—my name is Stark, not 'Shit-da-ke'!"
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"Say my name properly!"
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"If you want to prove this is real, show me convincing evidence."
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"For example, my future. You're not going to tell me I'm a character in some anime world, right?"
Tony Stark had no doubt about his own reality.
After all, who could possibly create someone as handsome, witty, and talented as him?

Ding! Member Child of Nature uploaded a memory copy.
Ding! Group Leader uploaded a memory copy.
---
Ordinary Group Leader:
"Oh? You uploaded one too?"
Ordinary Group Leader:
"What did you upload?"
---
Child of Nature:
"The cave forging scene—that's where the story begins."
Child of Nature:
"Didn't you upload that?"
---
Ordinary Group Leader:
"I uploaded a clip of Pepper kissing the Hulk."
---
Child of Nature:
"…???"
Child of Nature:
"Something's wrong with you."
---
Bai Xuan naturally knew what Su Yunqing was referring to—it was actually a scene where the actors of Pepper and the Hulk appeared together in another movie, unrelated to Iron Man.
In his previous life, someone had edited that clip together with a scene of Iron Man beating the Hulk, confusing many viewers into thinking Tony had been "cheated on."
He really didn't expect Su Yunqing to upload that.
---
Ordinary Group Leader:
"Well, who told him to be so arrogant and insist the chat group is fake?"
Ordinary Group Leader:
"If I don't show him something that messes with his mindset, wouldn't I lose face as the group leader?"
Ordinary Group Leader:
(hands on hips)
---
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"What is this?"
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"As the richest man alive, how could I be forging iron in a cave?"
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"And what the hell is that second clip?! Who is that man next to Pepper?!"
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"F*ck! I'm going to kill him!"
If the first clip only made Tony suspicious, the second one completely broke his composure.
He understood his feelings for Pepper—he just hadn't confessed yet.
But that didn't mean he could accept seeing her intimate with another man.
That scene made him want to shoot that guy on the spot!
---
After venting slightly, Tony barely regained his composure and said in the chat:
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"I admit… my voice was a bit loud just now. I sincerely apologize."
Lighthouse's Richest Man:
"So… can someone tell me—was that second clip real or fake?"
