I Really Can't Control Myself

Just as Takaoka Ushinori expected, Nakiri Alice's situation is now quite bad.

After she awakened her spiritual power, she took the initiative to ask her parents for the position of CEO of the group. At that time, she said something very nice, saying that the world would enter a new era and she was the best person to lead this new era.

The world has indeed entered a new era as she said, but the problem is that the situation in Yuantsuki International has gradually become quite worse.

This is mainly because Yuanyue International’s main business was previously chef-related, such as the import and export of food ingredients, kitchenware business, chain restaurants, and restaurant design and development solutions.

However, with the advent of the new era, it does not mean that people no longer need to eat, but that the level of concern for these things has dropped to a relatively low level for everyone.

The entire world is currently revolving around the keyword of spiritual power. Questions such as what to eat and drink are now only secondary issues. Currently, most people's demand for things is just to be able to eat enough and not starve to death, and more resources will not tend to be invested in eating better.

If you have money, you can buy something like a talisman blessed by a master. Maybe it can save you the next time you encounter monsters or demons.

In short, the traditional business of Yuanyue International has shrunk drastically, and the group has suffered serious losses. But all this is not irreparable, after all... there is still the banner of Yuanyue Academy to rely on.

In fact, Alice Nakiri was not completely unprepared. She had actually foreseen the current situation a long time ago. After all, she was one of the first people to come into contact with spiritual power, and she had certainly thought about the future development of her own group.

After all, the best way to integrate with their own business is to develop dishes related to spiritual power.

There is nothing like this on the market yet, but it is clear that it can be done.

As mentioned before, as the progress of the world's spiritual energy recovery is loading, the world has gradually begun to discover some plants and animals rich in spiritual energy, such as the spiritual herbs that the Yatagarasu had stolen before.

Then you asked if this kind of thing can be used in cooking. Of course it can. It is similar to the principle of alchemy. By combining some ingredients, these things can be better absorbed and reduce side effects. If we carry out research and development in this direction, it is estimated that it should be effective.

But, before Yuanyue International could achieve any results, something big happened. This big thing naturally refers to... the ban.

This had a huge impact on Totsuki International, because not only was Totsuki International banned, but the entire Totsuki Academy was banned, which was equivalent to directly cutting off their retreat.

The foundation of Totsuki International is actually Totsuki Academy. When problems arose in the academy, they didn’t know how to carry out their related work.

What's more, this time the order was given by the higher-ups, and some of Yuanyue International's partners had of course also received the news before.

At present, these traditional business groups have been more or less impacted by the revival of spiritual energy, and they themselves are in a precarious situation. But they all know one thing, that is, in this new era, the people who lead the trend are the awakened ones.

At present, the one who openly controls the power of these people who have awakened their spiritual powers is the Yi Dui Department. They can ignore the orders of others, after all, they are a chaebol, and they could ignore even the orders of the government in the past. But now it is different, they really dare not disobey the orders of the Yi Dui Department.

As a result, the ban order issued by the enemy was executed quite smoothly, and in an instant Totsuki International lost the support of almost all its allies.

The most fatal problem is that their development progress has come to a complete standstill.

Yes, at present, Totsuki International itself has already encountered problems. The biggest turning point is actually the development of spiritual power-related dishes or foods.

But at this critical moment of development, the people from the opposite side suddenly said that they were banned. Now a big problem has arisen, where will the spiritual power-related raw materials needed for this development come from?

It was originally a development problem, but if they lost the support of the alien forces, they would have to find ways to get the ingredients themselves. They would have to set up a food collection team and have them search the world for spiritual items. Just hearing this, you can tell that this is a very troublesome matter, and the investment is also astonishing.

In short, even Linton, who gave the order, didn't know that his ban at this critical moment made Yuanyue International really uncomfortable, so uncomfortable that they didn't know what to do.

Alice Nakiri is now facing the biggest problem. Without the supply of raw materials, she has to either stop the previous research or find a new supply of raw materials. Both of these options are quite bad, and on this basis, she has to maintain the current situation of the company, otherwise the company will go bankrupt before she comes up with a solution. What's the point?

Logically speaking, given Alice Nakiri's current situation, even if Totsuki International was gone, she certainly wouldn't starve to death. Given her current level of spiritual power, there was obviously another way.

But Yuanyue International was handed over to her by her parents, and she had made a promise to them with full confidence. In the current situation, it is impossible for her to give up easily.

Being extremely worried and exhausted is indeed her current state.

"I think we should just carry out my proposal." The person who spoke was naturally the guard who had always been with Alice Nakiri. Kurokiba was in trouble.

Although Kurokiba Ryo was often seriously injured in the previous Osaka Battle, and was beaten to the point of being unable to take care of himself every time he encountered a big demon, it has to be said that this guy has a very strong vitality, and the sword that Linton and Aizen exchanged for him at the beginning also has a strong recovery ability, so he has survived now.

The solution he proposed for the current situation faced by Miss Nakiri was to organize a "hunting team" and then obtain relevant spiritual materials to continue research and development. As long as the research and development was completed, there would be a stepping stone to open up the situation.

"It's not such a simple problem." Nakiri Alice frowned. Although the current R\u0026D problem is thorny, it is not the most important problem. The problem is still the ban. The ban is still there. Even if they succeed in development, can the company be revived?

Just as they were about to continue the discussion, suddenly Kurokiba Ryo next to them was shocked and his hand directly grasped the hilt of the knife: "Who's there!"
