Chapter 554
"Support Association? What's that?"
"It's just supporting the Amber King, don't worry about it so much." Heita shrugged, "Do you still remember the Universal Locust Disaster? The Support Association initially relied on aiding disaster‑stricken star systems, gaining great wealth and prestige. After establishing the Interstellar Peace Company, they launched the universal currency: credit points. Since then, people on every planet no longer need to worry about how much their specialties can be exchanged for—everything has a fixed price."

"Isn't that company making a killing?"
"That's right." Heita nodded, "Since transactions are no longer mediated through the company's three‑party market but are settled directly with the company, it's a huge boon for the company. Moreover, trillions of assets have silently been hidden in the form of credit points, quickly filling the company's coffers—though their pockets are bottomless. This is also why the company went from a small organization that procured supplies for the Star Gods to becoming a power that can turn clouds and rain in the universe at will."
—— (just a separator line). We need to output 【5】 with translation of that line. The line is "——". Probably an em dash line. Should we translate as "——"? Keep same? Probably just output the same dash? The instruction: translate faithfully. The line is just an em dash. Should we output same? Probably keep as "——". We'll output that.
Is it wrong to seek encounters in the dungeon?
"Oh… so this is how the company got its start?"
Hestia's eyes widened in surprise, but she quickly reacted: "Huh? Over seven hundred Amber Eras? How many years is that? Tens of thousands of years?"
"That long? With that many Amber Eras, we should have converted them all to credit points ages ago."
Let's list all person names appearing:
"My name is Heita."
"My name is Hestia."
"My name is Bèi'ěr."
"My name is Wéi'ěrfū."
"My name is Lìlìlùkǎ."
Lancer looked up, gazed at Xing's face, and said:
Lancer (from Fate) is a name, but it's already English; actually line 26: Lancer looks up... Lancer is an English word used as a name. Should we keep it as Lancer? It's already English. According to the rule: use pinyin for a person's name; but if it's already an English name, we keep it as is? The source uses "Lancer" (English). So we keep Lancer.
- Acher (line 28) appears as "Acher". That's likely a name from Fate? Actually "Archer"? Might be a misspelling. It's English. Keep as Acher.
"I am Shìláng."
- Saber (line 33) is English name, keep Saber.
- Lancer again.
- Acher again.
"Hey! Chief Kēlāpàwū, what are you doing?"
"Cut it out, Special Appointee."
Tèláolā·Fǎnēnshā's Four Great Guard Teams are conducting a routine inspection.
Fǎnēnshā glanced at her watch and muttered:
"Kelapa Wu, why is your Logistics Department's efficiency so low today?"
"Sorry, Mr. De Vein, we're dealing with some unexpected situations."
"Xing, have you seen Heita?"
"No, I haven't seen him since yesterday."
"This is the entrance to the Academy of Erudition; please show your ID."
The sound of Luosigum rang timely in Xing's ear:
We need to list all named entities that appear: characters (incl. protagonist & minor ones), places, sects/clans/factions/peoples, official & sect ranks/titles, techniques, cultivation realms/pills/treasures, named beasts/items, fan-fiction names.
We need to output glossary list after all lines.
We must reuse exact English from glossary above for terms already listed. Only "Servant" is given.
Thus we need to produce list of entities with their English forms (translated meaning unless it's a person name, then pinyin). For places, sects, etc., we translate meaning.
Let's go through each line and extract entities.
I'll go line by line.
【1】 none.
【2】 Entities:
"Support Association? What's that?"
"It's just supporting the Amber King, don't worry about it so much."
Heita shrugged, "Do you still remember the Universal Locust Disaster? The Support Association initially relied on aiding disaster‑stricken star systems, gaining great wealth and prestige.

"Isn't that company making a killing?"
"Oh… so this is how the company got its start?"

Entities:
"My name is Bèi'ěr."

"Lùyìsī, are you the Chairman?"
"No, I'm just an ordinary credit‑point holder."
Living to this extent, it's basically no different from "eternal life", right?
Entities:
"My name is Wéi'ěrfū."
"My name is Lìlìlùkǎ."
As long as you have faith in his company, they'll send people to hand out credit points to believers.
Entities:
"My name is Lìlìlùkǎ."
"Credit points? What are those?"
"Ah…… they're so rich, can't they spare me a bit?" Hestia slumped on the bar table, looking like a weary worker with no will to live.
"Hehe, they'd love to pocket everyone's money 'legally'." Lili Luoka rested her chin on her hand, gently stirring the shake in front of her, "But won't the company get into trouble doing this? What will happen to the planets whose credit points have been squeezed dry?"
—— (no)
Entities:
"Xing, what are you doing?"
"I'm a new employee of the company."
"Welcome to the Interstellar Peace Company!"
Entities:
"Xing, do you have a mission?"
"This is the logo of the Interstellar Peace Company."
""You must be an organic life form full of 'blood spirit'! Let me introduce you to the company system.""
Entities:
"Propaganda Department colleagues, what are you busy with?"
Teila·Farnsha glanced at her watch and muttered:
"Godmother, do you have any instructions?"
"The Four Great Guard Teams are conducting a routine inspection."
"The Mental Regulation Department's report has been sent."
"The company's internal communication system is acting up again."
Entities:
"The Logistics Department's cargo is piled up at the entrance again."
"Kelapa Wu, can you handle this?"
"The New Generation Group's cooperation plan looks good."
"We can first discuss the partners' rights."
"The company's decisions need board approval."
Entities:
"The Technical Department's upgrade plan will have to wait until next quarter."
"De Vein, what do you think of this proposal?"
"The Confidential Cracking Department has found a new vulnerability."
"The external mercenary team's quote is too high."
"Unorthodox methods may be risky, but they could bring unexpected gains."
"The company's internal audit is underway."
Entities:
"Xing, how are you feeling today?"
"I'm fine, I just wanted to chat with Heita."
"The Strategic Investment Department's meeting is about to start."
Entities:
"Heita, do you have time?"
"The Strategic Investment Department's meeting room is on the third floor."
"The company's new product launch will be held tomorrow."
—— (no)
Entities:
"Fate/Meals at the Emiya House" is really delicious!
Entities:
- Lancer (already English name) -> keep Lancer.
"Miss Specialist, could you help me look up some information?"
"Kǎfùkǎ, what are you looking at?"
"Is this the effect of a word spirit?"
Entities:
"Yuǎnbǎn Lǐn, come here a moment."
"Is sitting on tatami too formal?"
Entities:
- Lancer again.
"Kǎfùkǎ, how's your mood today?"
"Fǎnēnshā, do you have time?"
"The planet's climate is warming up."
Entities:
- Acher (English name) keep Acher.
"Kǎfùkǎ, what about that plan you mentioned earlier?"
"The Holy Grail War is about to begin; we need to get ready."
"The Servants have all been summoned."
"We're running low on Command Spells."
Entities:
"Fǎnēnshā, can you verify this information?"
"Kǎfùkǎ, are you still okay?"
"The guard team is already in position."
none.
Entities:
"Shìláng, where's your sword?"
- Saber (English name) keep Saber.
"Where's the meat? I'm starving."
In an instant, everyone's attention was drawn back to the hot pot. Shirou flung a large plate of beef slices into the boiling broth; the pink slices instantly changed color and curled. Saber's eyes lit up instantly, and the chopsticks in her hand were already in position.
"The first slice goes to……" Shirou had just picked up a slice of meat when he hadn't even finished speaking, only to see the chopsticks of three Servants strike almost simultaneously, precisely aiming at the beef he had just picked up.
In the end, it was Lancer who, with quick eyes and hands, snatched the beef from Shirou's chopsticks and then, as if showing off, waved it in front of Acher.
Entities:
- Acher again.
"The Kulan Mastiff's sense of smell is really sharp."
—— (no)
Entities:
"Xing, do you have time?"
"The recruitment fair starts at 3 p. m. today."
"The conference room is ready; please come in."
"The Academy of Erudition's lecture is tonight at 7 p. m."
"The lighting in the conference room was cold white and uniform, casting the metal long table before them like an ice surface."
"She was sitting at one end of the conference long table, while at the other end sat a young-looking man wearing a well-tailored dark coat, his demeanor calm, his eyes that seemed able to see into a person's heart calmly fixed on her, his fingertips unconsciously tapping the tabletop."
Entities:
"The partners' meeting is tomorrow morning at 9 a. m."
none.
"Xing pointed at the man in front of him who looked not easy to provoke; the group behind him were clearly tough types, their clothes dotted with dust and mottled bloodstains, as if they had fought their way out of the wasteland at the edge of the universe."
Entities:
"The Logistics Department's truck broke down again."
"Kelapa Wu, go check it out."
"The Academy of Erudition's new book exhibition opens tomorrow."
"The partners need to review the budget first."
""Well then, what should I do?""
Entities:
The sound of Luosigum rang timely in Xing's ear:
"How should the hand‑kissing ceremony be conducted?"
Entities:
"Xing, are you ready to take on the challenge?"
"You little brat……!" If it weren't in the simulated universe, Black Tower would love to personally step in and hold Xing's head: "Hurry up!"
