Esper X Family – Chapter 109 – It is? Is it?

“Huh? I’ve actually stopped falling over!” Fang Tang exclaimed, her grip on Ye Yao’s hand tightening slightly.

“Are you some kind of lucky charm, Ghosty?”

“No.”

Ye Yao led Fang Tang to the highest point nearby.

She suddenly regretted getting involved with Fang Tang.

After spending some time together and talking, she realized that Fang Tang didn’t seem to be able to offer any substantial help.

At best, she could only provide some information about the world of cycles through comparison.

Currently, as soon as Fang Tang left her side, she would be pulled back into the cycle of bad luck.

They couldn’t separate at all.

Bringing her along seemed to serve the greater purpose of alleviating loneliness.

Ye Yao stood on the rooftop, gazing at the city’s skyline.

It stretched endlessly, as if there was no end in sight.

The size of the world of cycles was unexpectedly vast.

But perhaps not as expansive as the real world.

Only by reaching the edge could they truly understand its limits.

“How long will it take to find her?”

Ye Yao was completely overwhelmed.

At that moment, Fang Tang asked, “Ghosty, where does the person you’re looking for live?

Can we go to her house and look?”

“But I don’t know where her house is…”

If she could go back in time, Ye Yao would definitely go back and ask Wu Mi where she lived.

That would at least narrow down the search.

“Does anyone else know?”

“Anyone else?”

Ye Yao’s eyes lit up.

Her perspective shifted back to the room.

Ye Yao shook her head, forcing herself to adapt to the intense discomfort.

Rеаd on KаtReаdіոgСаfе

She had just realized something.

The flow of time in the World of Cycles was different from reality.

While her consciousness experienced hours inside, only seconds had passed in the real world.

Ye Yao’s brain was receiving hours of information in mere seconds.

It was extremely uncomfortable.

But this cost was negligible to save Wu Mi.

“Little Luo, do you know where Sequence 029 was discovered?”

“Sequence 029?”

Luo Jianhua tilted her head, searching her memory.

She had been keeping up with the information from the Countermeasures Bureau in real time.

She didn’t need to return to the Bureau.

She could just browse the public information on a specific app on her phone.

As long as she logged in with the account prepared by the Bureau, she could access it.

She could find information about some events in the Esper world.

Of course, the files on high-risk sequences were mostly classified.

Ye Yao was likely referring to the girl who had recently dropped one place from Sequence 028.

Luo Jianhua knew everything but didn’t ask any questions.

“Hmm… wait a moment, Sister. I’ll look it up. I should be able to find it.”

Luo Jianhua took out her phone and started searching.

Normally, information about Sequence Espers couldn’t be found online.

But Sequence 029 was a fugitive Sequence Esper.

And she was a relatively harmless initial sequence.

Unlike those major villains who would kill without hesitation.

Therefore, some relatively basic information could be accessed.

“Found it.”

Luo Jianhua then told Ye Yao where Wu Mi had been discovered.

“Thank you, Little Luo. I’ll borrow your phone for a bit.”

“No need to thank me. Feel free to use it however you like.”

Ye Yao took the phone and searched for landmarks on the map.

Rеaⅾ оn КаtRеαⅾіոɡСafе

She began following the route to find where Wu Mi might be hiding.

Back in the world of cycles.

“I think I know where to go now. Let’s head out.”

“Huh? After wandering aimlessly for so long, you suddenly know? How did you do it, Ghosty?”

Fang Tang looked at her in confusion.

“Wisdom of mortals ¹ Meme that is used to ridicule people’s superficial understanding of things. Origin is from a crosstalk and I’m not that interested, so I didn’t research much. .”

Ye Yao didn’t bother explaining.

There was no point in trying to explain it to this sweet little loli.

Ye Yao then led Fang Tang and walked according to the map.

She found the landmarks in the world of cycles.

Following the route shouldn’t lead to any major issues.

The sky darkened.

It seemed that the world of cycles also had day and night cycles.

The city at night was illuminated by neon lights, providing Ye Yao with enough light to see.

Fortunately, it wasn’t some rural setting.

Otherwise, it would have turned into a horror movie scene.

Nothing went smoothly.

After walking for a while, Ye Yao noticed that something was off.

Fang Tang voiced her confusion.

“It feels like we’ve been here before, Ghosty. Is this really the right path?”

“It is… right? Is it?”

Ye Yao’s brain was in conflict, almost overheating.

The route on the map was clearly correct!

Why were they lost in the world of cycles?

“If this path is wrong, let’s try a detour.”

Reаԁ оո ΚаtReaⅾіոɡСαfе

After all, all roads lead to Rome.

A detour is better than being lost!

Just as Ye Yao and Fang Tang were walking along another route, something unexpected happened.

Boom!

A loud explosion echoed from a nearby building.

A pillar of fire shot out from a large hole in the wall.

As the flames died down, a man with a maniacal laugh flew out of the hole.

“Hahaha!! If you want my life so badly, come and get it, Countermeasures Bureau scum!”

Several figures quickly followed.

The glow of their abilities flickered in the night, creating a scene of extreme violence.

Ye Yao quickly pulled Fang Tang into hiding, her mind filled with questions.

“What’s going on now?”

Ye Yao realized that she still hadn’t fully understood the nature of the world of cycles.

Judging by the scene, it seemed that the Countermeasures Bureau was dealing with a criminal.

But where did the bad guy come from?

Had a criminal been caught in Wu Mi’s supernatural disaster?

Just then, a voice filled with hatred faintly reached her ears.

“If we can kill you once, we can kill you again!”

Ye Yao became intrigued.

“Let’s get closer.”

“Okay, okay!”

Fang Tang showed no fear.

In fact, she was eager to join in the excitement.

After all, she wasn’t even afraid of a “ghost”.

As Ye Yao approached, she finally had a clearer look at the flamboyant criminal.

The man was suspended a hundred meters in the air.

His dark red hair danced wildly like burning snakes.

Molten patterns coiled around his exposed arms.

The office building beneath him had already turned into a torch.

Rеαd oո ΚatReаdiոɡCаfe

The glass walls cracked and shattered.

Molten steel flowed down the building, forming a bubbling pool of molten metal on the ground.

His presence was overwhelmingly intense.

Even from a distance, Ye Yao could feel the scorching heat.

This was undoubtedly an A-rank criminal Esper.

Ye Yao couldn’t help but complain.

“Why is it fire again?”

Was this overused element a standard for villains?

The first time, it was Flame Demon.

The second time, it was that member of the Sanctuary with purple flames.

And now, she encountered another fire-based Esper being hunted by the Countermeasures Bureau in the world of cycles.

Logically, fire should be the standard for a shonen manga protagonist.

The following battle was brutal.

The five Espers from the Countermeasures Bureau surrounded the criminal, who launched a desperate counterattack.

The area within a hundred meters turned into a molten hell.

If it weren’t for the Countermeasures Bureau Espers controlling the damage, it would have been even worse.

The outcome was three dead and two surviving Espers from the Bureau, a pyrrhic victory.

Ye Yao watched from afar, trying to understand the significance of this supernatural disaster in the world of cycles.

However, just then.

The clock tower’s time hit midnight.

Ye Yao’s vision suddenly distorted.

The night abruptly turned into day.

And the environment shifted instantly.

Ye Yao was left in a daze.

“Are we back at the starting point?”
