Anime chat group , you let me come only after the world is destroyed?

After listening to Elysia's explanation, Takumi was genuinely surprised.

"Eden, you really know how to play!"

He looked over at Eden.

Taking singers from other worlds into her own company~? That was impressive.

"Well, it's not like I have anything else to do, right?"

"So I just decided to pick up something I always wanted to do."

Eden was a superstar in her previous life. Now, reborn into a new life, of course she would want to do something she loved.

This was perfect.

Takumi didn't say anything more.

Everyone got busy helping Takumi decorate the house with spring couplets and lanterns. They also cleaned the place.

For the entire day, everyone was preparing for the New Year.

Day by day, the fleets from space started returning.

On the day the fleets landed, Prometheus even live-streamed the whole event.

This announcement was broadcasted to the entire world.

Thankfully, the ships weren't open to the public. Otherwise, countless people would be flocking there.

Kosmo and the others were undoubtedly becoming massive celebrities.

That night, Esdeath returned home.

Having not seen her in so long, Esdeath went completely wild. She didn't even sleep till dawn.

But for someone of her level, sleep didn't matter anymore.

With the fleets back, it was time to celebrate the New Year.

On New Year's Eve, Takumi's world was filled with fireworks.

Some were set off by individuals, others by the mecha species.

The entire world was bustling with excitement.

Countless fireworks lit up the night sky.

At midnight, Takumi checked in on the group chat.

This had always been his tradition.

Not just him—everyone did it.

When the time came, it was time to check in.

After checking in, Takumi sent a 200-point red envelope in the group.

Takumi: [Group Red Envelope] [Happy New Year!]

Once sent, everyone scrambled for it.

But everyone only got single or double-digit points.

Seeing the red envelope, the group was unimpressed.

Bronya: [I thought it'd be a big one!]

Chika Fujiwara: [So stingy, is that all?] [@shiroyasha, Admin, send one too!!]

Sagiri: [Admin should send one too.]

Megumi Kato: [Admin, send one too.]

Yuuki Asuna: [Admin, send one too!]

shiroyasha: [?] [I'm quitting as admin!!] [@takumi, please revoke my admin rights.]

Seriously? Sending red envelopes?

Dream on. Points were insanely valuable.

Sending red envelopes was like cutting off her lifeline.

There was no way she was going to send one. No way.

Seeing this, Takumi smiled slightly.

Then he opened the group chat again.

Takumi: [Switch to the new terminal chat group!] [I'll send a big red envelope!]

After saying that, he brought out his terminal.

Then had Prometheus create a new group and pulled everyone in.

Besides the current group members, Takumi also pulled in characters like Tingyun, Mobius, and Ruan Mei.

Once everyone was in, Takumi immediately sent a massive red envelope.

Takumi: [Group Red Envelope]

Instantly, the group exploded with messages.

[Ningguang grabbed your red envelope.] [Tingyun grabbed your red envelope.] [Tomoyo grabbed your red envelope.] [shiroyasha grabbed your red envelope.] [Kuon Asuka grabbed your red envelope.] [Megumi Kato grabbed your red envelope.] ...

One after another, messages filled the chat.

People who were dragged into the group didn't even have time to process what was happening before they saw the envelope.

Their first instinct was to grab it.

When they saw the amount they received, everyone was dumbfounded.

Takumi had sent a one-hundred-million-point red envelope.

Chika Fujiwara: [Thanks, boss!!]

Megumi Kato: [Thanks, boss!!]

Eriri: [Thanks, boss!!]

Utaha Kasumigaoka: [Thanks, boss!!]

Tomoyo: [Thanks for the red envelope, Takumi.]

Everyone in the group was overwhelmed with gratitude.

Takumi's red envelope was too huge.

It left everyone completely speechless.

He actually sent such a large red envelope?

Was he for real?

Takumi: [Thanks for all your hard work.] [Come over to my place for dinner tomorrow!]

Takumi extended an invitation to everyone.

Since it was the New Year, why not have a big meal together?

Though there were many people, it wasn't a problem.

He'd just go recruit some chefs.

Seeing his message, no one declined.

Everyone agreed.

Takumi decided on a banquet-style meal.

Everyone was invited!

After chatting in the group for a while, Takumi started making arrangements.

"Prometheus, message Alice and the others to come help tomorrow."

"Also the chefs from Totsuki Academy."

"And Mr. Ichiryu's people—have them help with the feast too."

Takumi immediately delegated the task.

Prometheus began messaging everyone without delay.

By tomorrow, everything would be in place.

"Arrangements complete."

Seeing that, Takumi nodded in satisfaction.

Then he went to rest with his girls.

Everyone was here today…

...

The next morning, Takumi had just woken up when he saw his courtyard packed with people.

When he went downstairs, Alice came over and asked:

"With so many people coming, where are we going to eat?"

Hearing that, Takumi snapped his fingers.

In an instant, the space around them expanded dozens of times.

"This should do it."

"We can fit even more if needed."

"You guys just get the dishes ready. Leave the rest to me."

Seeing the newly enlarged space, Alice nodded.

"Alright!"

"Also set up the kitchen while you're at it."

"The ingredients will be delivered by IGO."

"My chefs are already here."

"As for the menu... just let everyone make their specialty dishes."

"As long as everyone enjoys it, that's what matters."

Alice chattered away to Takumi about all the preparations.

She especially didn't think a formal menu was needed.

There were too many chefs here today.

If each person made just one specialty dish, that'd be more than enough.

No need to overthink it.

"Sounds good. I'm fine with that."

"Let's see what ingredients get delivered."

It really was a solid idea.

With the menu decided, Alice got busy.

As a group member, Takumi entrusted the banquet planning to her.

And she knew just how many people would attend.

Because Takumi invited everyone he knew.

It would undoubtedly be a lively event.

While they were busy, Takumi also started his own preparations.
