Playing a game with Miku

　　'Heroes of the Warring States' is a cooperative strategic management online game that officially started operations at the end of the summer vacation.

　　[Build a city with your friends, beat Oda Nobunaga, kick Takeda Shingen, and become the most powerful name in Japan in the war-torn Warring States Period!]

　　Shinichi still remembers what was written in the game's advertising slogan, which was very attractive to certain groups of people.

　　Obviously, this is the reason why Miku would love this game and even drag him into it as soon as it was launched.

　　A few days later, with Shinichi, Miku really becomes a girl who is addicted to the internet. During summer vacation, she was online for more than ten hours every day. She even plans to use the cell phone to control the computer remotely and build her own city at school once school starts.

　　Not only that, but she was different in the game than in the real world. Maybe because the virtual world makes her more open-minded?

　　Miku continued typing.

　　Shogun: "General, I remember the lord of the neighboring city laughed at our city wall yesterday because it didn't look good, right?"

　　All for One: "That's right, I have a screenshot of the conversation."

　　Shogun: "Okay, let's kill the guy first, then make the screenshot into a prop and stick it on the city wall."

　　This game has a very interesting setting, namely images can be turned into virtual props and used to decorate the city.

　　This also led to the fact that after a city battle, the winning side often put up strange pictures everywhere in the losing side's city to humiliate them, while the other side had no choice but to wait until the day of defeat before reorganizing their city.

　　Of course, posting banned images will immediately result in a permanent ban, so most players just post pictures of macho men, Cthulhu pictures, Shiba Inu emoticons, etc. for fun.

　　Shinichi typed on the keyboard.

　　All for One: "Okay. Then get ready to fight."

　　Shogun: "Soldiers, come out!"

　　Shogun: "How dare you underestimate us. If I don't reply today, I will lose my reputation! We have to make him regret being our enemy!"

　　All for One: "…"

　　The second difference is that although the name is ugly, it is also more childish.

　　After a brutal war that took 8,000 words, they managed to reduce their opponents to rubble and posted dialogue screenshots on the half-destroyed city walls, completing their humiliation.

　　Due to Shinichi's previous warning, the two blocked the loser's messages and were not attacked by possible profanity.

　　This is basically how the game is played.

　　Build a city with your friends, divide the workforce and work together for city development, resource development, personnel coordination and most importantly war.

　　Not only can they compete with players, famous figures in history have also become NPCs, as long as players have power, they can be destroyed and their territories and generals will be replaced.

　　This is also Miku's main purpose. If she wants to become the most powerful, she can't do it without first reducing all the celebrity cities of the Warring States she admires to ruins!

　　Shogun: "Well, if we continue like this, we will be able to attack the Uesugi clan in about a week?"

　　Shogun: "General, the day we become the strongest is near."

　　All for One: "I'm not talking about it, we've only been playing for more than a week..."

　　Shogun: "Time is no object! Shen Castle is prosperous day by day, and I am responsible for the overall situation. Generals are victorious troops. The Uesugi clan is simply first class. Sooner or later, they will fall under your spear and be defeated!"

　　All for One: "…"

　　The third difference is that it is easy to expand and ambitious, always talking about the strongest name.

　　Shinichi placed one hand on the keyboard, looked at the screen and sighed.

　　Although playing games with Miku is not boring, Shinichi is not a pig teammate. He is responsible for the management of internal affairs and maintaining order in their city, so that Shinichi has the basis for winning every battle. The two work together all the time.

　　But the conflict between the girl's character and reality is so strong that Shinichi cannot even express it...

　　Luckily, Miku didn't post any cute emojis or anything. Otherwise, he would suspect that the girl sitting in front of the computer was not the same girl he knew.

　　Shogun: 『(*??`)~?』

　　Mikh withdrew message.

　　Shogun:『σ`??)σ』

　　Shogun: "I pressed the wrong button."

　　All for One: "…"

　　"Okay, as long as you are happy."

　　Time passed slowly, and about an hour passed. After telling Miku to go to bed early and not play too late, Shinichi went offline, browsed the game forums for a while, and put away the notebook.

　　He put on clothes and went downstairs to take a shower. When he returned to my room, he found a message from Miku, which was about a game.

　　"An NPC's son is about to be born? What the heck... I hope the birth goes smoothly."

　　After answering casually, he put the phone on the bedside table, did light exercise for twenty minutes, then turned off the light and went to bed.

　　The first day of school went by smoothly and was not boring.

　　Shinichi hoped that every day from now on could be spent with them in peace.
