Gacha Game Female Characters Become Obsessed with Me

In the original work, after clearing the 25th floor, Neo-Hanyang of the Great Imperial Empire and Hwibastan of the Fingolia Empire opened up as visitable areas.

There wasn’t any particular special interaction.
It was just for visiting taverns to find heroes who only respawned in those areas.

But now we’re not even at the 25th floor clear state.
Moreover, it’s not just a simple visit, but a state where we can create wealth and vested interests by building various buildings like shops…!

When the Imperial Princess said she would provide ‘various conveniences’,
Honestly, I was a bit unsure.

To give such a huge gift.

A 100% happy smile spread across the corners of my mouth.

Moreover, although it had the specificity of being the 20.5th floor, there was no need to operate while forming a party.

In other words, it means we can freely come and go!

Unless there’s a sudden situation, there’s no need to drag around the hero Party 2 in a crowd.
Besides, all the heroes looked visibly tired.

Honestly, I don’t understand why Yohena, who was just lying in a coffin mumbling in her sleep, is tired, but still, managing the heroes’ condition is important.

I coolly sent off the heroes returning to Celestia.

“Hmm, Tinya wants to rest too…”

Of course, the deputy manager, who was given the heavy responsibility of running the general store even after returning, whined.

“Have some ownership, Tinya. I’ll make you tanghulu later.”

“!”

Tinya shouting “Kyawoo” in excitement at the three words ‘tanghulu’.

“Ahem, hmm. Neb is lazy, but tired, but struggling, but maybe I’ll do a bit of alchemy before resting.”

Even the Demon of Sloth, perking up his cat ears and sneakily following behind Tinya.

Having reliable slaves, no, comrades feels this reassuring.
Probably.

After those who were leaving left,
Two remained.

“Hehe, if this concubine accompanies you, Ark-nim might feel a bit more at ease.”
“Lumi will protect Master, woof!”

Elise, who volunteered as a Neo-Hanyang guide, and
The loyal dog, smart dog, bread dog Lumi.

Flowers in both hands!

…That would have been nice, but
There was also an uninvited guest.

《Warning. National husband candidate, do not leave this Duiju No. 38’s sight. Especially, illegal interactions with the opposite sex are forbidden.》

“Yeah, yeah.”

“Grrrr…!”

《Warning. Lumi, please stop the illegal threatening behavior towards this Duiju. This Duiju No. 38 is not a dog treat.》

With this strange combination including the cyberpunk mother-in-law Duiju whose form of address had subtly changed due to some misunderstanding,

We roamed the streets of Hanyang.

Passing through the Six Ministries Street outside the palace and walking a bit further, a riverside embankment that anyone could see was modeled after Cheonggyecheon unfolded before us.

Next to the wall of a magnificent tiled-roof house was a thatched-roof house that fully retained the charm of the countryside, and next to that was a three-story brick Western-style house with neon signs flashing.

As we walked following the guidance of the navigation-equipped Duiju,
A very wide open space that looked like it was made for building structures appeared, and with a Cheonggyecheon view no less.

《This is the territory bestowed upon the national husband candidate by the First Imperial Princess. Always be grateful.》

“What’s a national husband?”

《Re-evaluation. Lowering the intelligence level assessment of the national husband candidate by 1 step. Judging further explanation from this Duiju No. 38 to be unnecessary, I will exercise the right to remain silent.》

“…?”

How dare this piece of scrap metal challenge my brilliant brain.
If only the smartphone I just updated with new features had a search function, I wouldn’t have suffered such humiliation.

“Lumi?”

“Woof!”

《Stop, stop!》

Leaving Lumi to make teeth marks on the surface of the whining Duiju, I checked the installed ‘Neo-Hanseong Add-on’.

There wasn’t much difference from the existing general store program.

When I ran the relatively new function, ‘Building Design’,
A UI reminiscent of the construction menu in a management simulation game unfolded.

As I placed a wall as a test,

“Wow.”

A hologram wall popped up on the empty field where there was nothing before.
Then suddenly, a mysterious flying object came from far away, whizz, chak!

《Public Works Construction Engineer 108. Commencing mission.》

A half-finished robot about half the size of a person started construction work along the hologram, clanging away.

“Ooh…”

I couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration at the Great Imperial Empire’s cutting-edge construction engineering system.

《Work complete. Materials and labor cost 1 dangbaekjeon, travel expense 500 dangbaekjeon. Total 501 dangbaekjeon.》

That admiration would have continued a bit longer if the crazy tin can hadn’t charged 500 times the material cost for travel expenses.

“What? How can you charge so much for travel expenses just for building one wall?”

《Construction engineers are valuable strategic assets.》

I seriously considered smashing this shameless robber robot that displayed a brazen expression on its facial LED, but.

《Attention. This is Duiju No. 38. Requesting communication with Construction Engineer 108.》

Duiju No. 38, which had emerged from Lumi’s chest, attempted dense and sticky communication between robots.

Beep beep. Boop boop.
Boop? Beep.
Beeeep, boop.
Beep boop, beeeep.

“…”

The two communicated in incomprehensible machine language for a while.
Finally, they seemed to have reached an agreement as they displayed [♡_♡] on their LEDs to each other.

It seems they hit it off.
These things that don’t even have reproductive abilities.

《Accepting Duiju No. 38’s recommendation, we will not charge additional travel expenses for work within the next 4 hours.》

Still, the negotiation result wasn’t bad.

I was a bit concerned that the price of construction materials was quite expensive compared to Celestia.

But the guild house there was already the result of maximum cost reduction in the first place.

Make only the visible parts flashy.
Cut corners on the unseen parts.

Moreover, now there’s no need to correct human errors of the construction crew, and no interference from nagging heroes?

It was the optimal environment.

It was time to show off my 1,000 hours of RimXorld play career.

Pew──

《Caution. Every time you’re hit by the toy gun, anger levels rise. Please restrain yourself.》

I showed off my career too much.

Reality wasn’t a game.

Having squandered my fortune recklessly,
I sighed while fiddling with the gun that had lost its spirit pressure.

Still, the result was quite satisfactory.

First, the guild house.

I prepared perfect accommodations for the picky heroes who can’t live without one room per person.
While at it, I also invested modestly in kitchen appliances like ovens, microwaves, and large-capacity refrigerators, which weren’t available in Celestia.

…It’s a bit expensive, but
Looking at it long-term, a cyberpunk city with electricity is much better to live in than a fantasy rural town, right?

Heroes who like countryside living?

Once they taste the hot and sticky cheese stretching from an evenly baked pizza in the oven, they’ll definitely whine “Please let me live here” without fail.

“Myeong myaong myeong! Myaong myeong!”
“Aah… I did well quitting being a demon…”

Just looking at Lumi and Elise, who received rewards for working hard with me until late at night, with their eyes half-glazed and dreamy expressions, made it certain.

Next, the shop.

One of the biggest drawbacks of Celestia’s general store,
I boldly cut out the purchasing function.

Virtuous cycle of the economy?
That only works in the anarchic state of Celestia.

This is the Great Imperial Empire.
There’s no need for us to take responsibility for the local economy when there’s already a government.

So I designed it thoroughly based on practicality.

On the first floor, a huge tavern.
I even installed kiosks to maximize turnover.

As I went around occasionally for market research, most of the alcohol sold in Neo-Hanyang was makgeolli.

It was the optimal environment for Celestia Vision Vodka to increase its market share.

Ark-nim? Why another tavern?

Earlier.
Elise raised a slight question mark at my foresight, but it was truly a stupid question.

Regardless of time and place,
Nothing is as profitable as selling water.

The construction stopped right at that point when the balance became precarious, but I’ll probably be able to recover the principal soon enough.

“Hehehe.”

Until the barbarians of Hanyang get drunk out of their minds,
My cultural invasion will not stop.

The conquest up to the 22nd floor was very smooth.

To wash away the perception of being a parachute appointment, I smashed malfunctioning robots on the outskirts of Hanyang or enlightened the skulls of subversive elements on the First Imperial Princess’s orders.

The heroes were satisfied because they could exercise their killing instincts.
I was satisfied because I could copy divine stones at a difficulty close to cheating.

Although we couldn’t push through 10 zones a day like before due to the longer volume of each zone,

Rather, we could quickly farm lacking materials by going to lower floors, so it wasn’t too bad.

Moreover, a part I really liked,

“Haha! As expected, you’re amazing! Truly work befitting the talent the Imperial Princess has her eye on.”

“You flatter me. Kehehehe.”

When I rounded up the 22nd floor boss ‘Night King Mungchi’ and all his subordinates, tied them up, and delivered them to the Ministry of Justice,

Jingle jingle!

There was even a bounty!

Beat up monsters to get items, gain experience, and if you package them well and deliver them, you even get a good sum of money?

This is the Great Imperial Empire, a good place to live.
A paradise on earth where justice is alive.
Neo-Hanyang, where milk and honey flow.

Along with the growing sense of satisfaction, after praising the heroes who worked hard both in the underground (sewers) and above ground (back alleys) today as well,

On the way to see new cute outfits while holding Tinya and Neb tightly in both hands,

“There’s no such law in the world!”
“This is tyranny!”
“Even migratory birds have nests, this can’t be!”

“Hmm?”

I saw a group that looked like they were on the verge of starting a people’s rebellion.

“Master! Shall I sweep them away?”

“Now, now.”

Restraining Tinya, who was sparkling her eyes and igniting seductive flames at her fingertips (when did she catch it from Lumi?),

I quietly slipped into their midst.

They were fuming over a wall poster.

[Prohibition]
[Due to the recent deterioration of public morals in Hanseong…]

…

“This can’t be! Prohibition! Is there anyone we need to kill!”

“That’s right!”
“Well, well, the young fellow speaks well!”

Ha, shit. The Great Imperial Empire, a good place to live.
I felt like having a cigarette I had never even opened in my life.

I need to actively suggest this to our Imperial Princess.

For the sake of our branch store’s business profits, no, for the mental health of the Great Imperial Empire’s subjects,

This outrage had to be stopped.
