Esper X Family – Chapter 367 – Medium Cup Mechanism?

【Under Xiao Jing’s mediation, Lou Wei and Fu Qi deeply recognized their mistakes, and the family harmony has steadily improved. Your tattling played an indispensable role in this. Reward: 10 attribute points.】

【Unallocated Attribute Points: 55】

Holy crap, Lou Wei and Fu Qi dropped gold coins!

But what does only 10 points mean?

The two of them combined couldn’t even match what Xiao Jing gave alone.

Truly stingy!

Ye Yao inwardly dismissed it with a hint of disdain.

Just these few attribute points, and they think she would get over it?

Not enough, absolutely not enough!

You need at least a hundred points per person, right?

That’ll be more satisfying!

Ye Yao daydreamed on the way back to the dorm, her eyes fixed on the fifty-five unallocated attribute points.

Before she knew it, she had saved up quite a few points again.

The rate was actually quite fast.

It probably wouldn’t take long to reach a hundred again.

But getting the system to allocate points didn’t particularly require major events.

Compared to the unfathomable mental power she had already displayed, this mere few dozen points of mental power enhancement shouldn’t provoke the Countermeasures Bureau.

Gaining fifty points just from sleeping through the night probably wouldn’t be an issue.

But there was one thing Ye Yao wasn’t sure about.

That damn system had developed a new function, requiring attribute points to be consumed before other mechanisms could be unlocked.

If she didn’t have attribute points available at the critical moment, she would be completely helpless.

This wasn’t just Ye Yao’s hoarding instinct acting up. There were serious considerations behind it!

According to Tu Sheng, the vengeful spirits weren’t completely extinct yet. They might tear through space to come again.

Before the Cybertronian could be upgraded into a Star Destroyer ¹ From Star Wars. , she would still have to be the one standing at the forefront.

For example, by activating her own form skill, the “Apotheosis Form”.

It would be seriously frustrating if her humanity was suppressed by divinity again.

Until she resolved that issue, she would have to rely on the Found Family System as a safety net.

But that way, the hard-earned attribute points would flow away like water.

This useless system is such a scam!

It was evening now.

Back in the dorm, she didn’t have to worry about being watched anymore.

Mo Qiuli held up her little phone, her eyes seemingly filled with little stars. One could visibly tell how excited she was.

She had been suppressing it outside, but now that she was back in private space, she didn’t have to hold back anymore.

“Ye Yao! Ye Yao, look! The name ‘Lullaby’ has spread across the world, everyone knows there’s a magical girl goddess like this. This is so great~ Magical girls have finally been recognized by the world!”

Ye Yao blinked.

“Isn’t there a possibility that ‘Tong Yao’ symbolizes something else out there, like an Ancestor, a Great Emperor, or the One True God, rather than a magical girl?”

“I don’t care about that. ‘Lullaby’ is Ye Yao’s magical girl title. She can only be the Goddess of Magical Girls. I’m going to go online and firmly correct those people’s misconceptions.”

Mo Qiuli’s enthusiasm was higher than ever before.

To her, Ye Yao was like the one who had ushered in the era of magical girls. Even the fame she gained was under the magical girl title she had chosen back then.

She had to seize this opportunity.

To restore the glory of magical girls! Mo Qiuli felt it was her duty!

Ye Yao patted Mo Qiuli’s little head, not bothering to correct her statement.

Rеad оո ΚаtRеαԁingСαfe

Back then, it seemed like that was the only kind of title available anyway.

It was fine as long as Mo Qiuli was happy.

However…

If she followed her logic and attached the magical girl label to the renowned “Tong Yao”, it would definitely be seen as blasphemy and an insult by some people, right?

Mo Qiuli would probably be attacked online.

This Loli Mercury probably wouldn’t be able to argue with netizens.

And there was no way Ye Yao would step forward as “Lullaby” and admit to being a magical girl.

That would be way too embarrassing. Her dignity would shatter into pieces.

After all, she was also the founder of the Era of Ten Thousand Arts.

Of course, Mo Qiuli wouldn’t force Ye Yao to publicly reenact such an embarrassing part of her past.

She was bursting with motivation right now.

“Ye Yao doesn’t need to move. I’ll do all the moving.

Since we’ve ushered in the era of magical girls, then next will be my, Magical Girl Mercury’s stage!

From now on, I’ll be even more active, striving to become the number one magical girl under ‘Lullaby’.

As the founder of the Magical Girl Alliance, I have to work hard to become a worthy companion for ‘Lullaby’.”

It seemed that Mo Qiuli had found a new goal.

This new era was truly full of vitality.

Anyone had the opportunity to seize the moment and soar to great heights.

Mo Qiuli no longer needed to suppress her own activity, and the Countermeasures Bureau no longer needed to hide it either.

She would probably become known to everyone as “Magical Girl Mercury”.

【Influenced by you, Mo Qiuli’s conviction has strengthened, and her goals have become clearer. She will advance along the path you pioneered. Reward: 5 attribute points.】

【Unallocated Attribute Points: 60】

“Go for it! I support you!”

“Then, can Ye Yao go out with me for an activity tonight? It’s been a long time since we did magical girl activities.”

“Waaah~ I used up a lot of magic power to start the era of magical girls. I need to rest for a long time before I can be active again~”

Ye Yao lay on the bed like a fish out of water, completely limp. The excuse she came up with was flimsy at best.

But it was more than enough to deal with Mo Qiuli.

“Well, if that’s the case, there’s no helping it then… It’s okay, I’ll spread love and justice for both of us!”

Mo Qiuli wasn’t disappointed at all.

After all, Ye Yao had already spread the name “Lullaby”, truly leading the way.

And now, it was her turn to spread the name “Mercury”. As a latecomer, she absolutely had to keep up!

Let’s make the Magical Girl Alliance great again!

At that moment, Fang Tang glanced at Ye Yao sprawled on the bed and decisively pounced, lying on top of her to cuddle.

“Cat stacking~”

“Human… I’m gonna get sugared to death by you.”

Ye Yao felt the weight on her, her voice muffled by the blanket.

“Hehe~ Cat, I’ve got good news. It seems like I can control my ability now.”

“I know. After all, I’m the one who helped you.”

“Cat, you really are the mark of the emperor ² Apparently it’s Guan Yu’s line from New Three Kingdoms about Zhuge Liang, but I didn’t dig deeper since I’m not too interested in Three Kingdoms, and because I’m not sure if I’m right. From what I can gather, Zhuge Liang is known as the “Sleeping Dragon”, but dragons are basically trademarked by Emperors, so he’s basically saying that Zhuge Liang overstepped his bounds. !”

Fang Tang didn’t look surprised at all, just affectionately rubbing her cheek against Ye Yao’s back.

The room was instantly filled with a sweet atmosphere.

“Human, don’t just focus on rubbing. Do you know how to use your ability yet?”

Ye Yao rolled over, trying to shake Fang Tang off.

But Fang Tang quickly climbed back on.

Except this time it was face-to-face, like a clingy cat-erpillar ³ The word used here is 猫猫虫māomaochóng, while the actual word for caterpillar is 毛毛虫máomaochóng. As you can see, the word 毛毛máomao (hairy) is replaced with 猫猫māomao (cat). .

When it came to boldly charging ahead, Fang Tang was always in the lead.

Wu Mi, Luo Jianhua, and Mo Qiuli could only ever be runners-up.

“Cat, let me try using it now.”

The next second, Ye Yao sensed a faint mental power fluctuation emanating from Fang Tang.

【Cat, how about sleeping together tonight?】

Fang Tang hadn’t spoken, but Ye Yao could clearly hear the message she sent.

Was this… the effect from when she passed by the restricted zone last time?

It seemed like she could hear Fang Tang’s inner thoughts.

Ye Yao looked at Luo Jianhua and the others. Judging from their expressions, it looked that they hadn’t heard it.

It seemed like she could make it so only specific people heard.

Ye Yao could feel her own mental power resonating with Fang Tang’s.

It was like connecting another controllable device into an electrical circuit.

Ye Yao could also transmit her inner thoughts back to Fang Tang.

“Telepathy? A Medium Cup Mechanism.”

If it was just mutual thought transmission, then it was purely an inferior version of telepathy.

Cheng Muxue could open a group chat space anytime she wanted.

But there were definitely other effects.

As sugary as Fang Tang’s personality was, her ability’s effects surely weren’t that sweet.

How did the saying go?

The more “sugary” the person, the more overpowered the power they wield. Like the owner of a certain spatial Stand ⁴ Okuyasu from JOJO part 4. His stand is ZA HANDO, probably one of the most overpowered stands in the entire series. , for example.

Although Fang Tang didn’t have a super brain, she might just have a super ability!

Author Note

It’s definitely not safe to wear short sleeves at night. The temperature difference is still too great.
