Esper X Family – Chapter 559 – Extremely Misleading

“Huh? Why did the Dayun Truck take off?”

Ye Yao quickly noticed that something was off with parallel Lou Wei.

It didn’t seem like his usual hanging in the air. He was heading into space to do something unknown.

Based on her experience from the original world, that man leaving Bluestar meant that he was either going to face a major enemy or about to use a power that Bluestar couldn’t withstand.

Under normal circumstances, he would never leave his post.

Yet, out of the blue, he took a long trip during this critical period. This didn’t seem like the Dayun Truck’s style at all.

Ye Yao withdrew her gaze and decided not to focus on it for now.

Since parallel Lou Wei was making such an unusual move, parallel Fu Qi would probably act strangely too. Perhaps she would get her answer soon.

Sure enough.

When the new day arrived, parallel Fu Qi contacted Ye Yao, as though he had something important to discuss.

Curious, Ye Yao went to the meeting.

“What’s up, Director? Did the investigation results come out?”

Parallel Fu Qi shook his head, his expression quite grave.

“The reason I invited you here today is to ask you for a favor. Please tell me about your origins and Ye Ge’s true strength.”

“I think I already said… it’s a secret, right?”

Ye Yao looked a bit troubled, as if she had something she couldn’t easily say.

Parallel Fu Qi took a deep breath and decided not to hide the scenes he had dreamed of the night before.

He had already verified with others: only he and Lou Wei had experienced this. No one else had encountered such a strange situation yet.

Parallel Fu Qi had also tried to go into deeper sleep several times, but the result was the same fragmented memories each time, with no extra information.

He suspected that this might be related to strength.

Since the two of them were the strongest, they received this mysterious early warning ahead of the others.

Parallel Fu Qi decided to tell this to the girl who called herself a magical girl.

Whether she was plotting something or not no longer mattered.

A girl who could knock out the strongest Esper of the current era with a single strike had no need to do anything unnecessary.

Not to mention Ye Ge, who was suspected to be even stronger.

All he could do was be honest.

“Lou Wei and I dreamed of some strange scenes last night.

In those scenes, the city where our headquarters is located was shattered, and Bluestar was shrouded in catastrophe.

Ye Ge appeared as an opposing force and attacked both me and Lou Wei.

Lou Wei and I suspect that this is a warning from the future. I hope you can give us some answers.

Given the kindness you’ve shown, you probably wouldn’t want to see this future come true.”

“Ehhh?”

Ye Yao was genuinely surprised.

Such a big play?

The parallel Lou Wei and Fu Qi from this world actually dreamed of scenes from the other world!

How long has it been!?

It hadn’t even been three full days since【Cause and Effect】was activated!

And Ye Yao also noticed something very frustrating.

The scenes they dreamed were ridiculously misleading.

Where’s the Interstellar Stray Dog?

Where’s the beginning of the Bluestar defense battle?

Why did it fast-forward to everything being Ye Ge’s fault?

Ye Yao almost couldn’t hold back.

“Um… are you sure it was Ye Ge who did it?”

“At least in the scenes, we were attacked by her. At that moment, I truly felt the resolve to risk my life.”

Parallel Fu Qi’s expression remained firm.

This was the conclusion he had repeatedly verified by entering sleep multiple times.

There was no mistake. That was a brutal battle that would determine the fate of Bluestar!

Perhaps in that battle, he had paid the price with his life.

If this was something that would happen in the future, he had to do everything possible to change the outcome.

“Ah, this…”

Ye Yao’s mouth opened slightly, as if she still hadn’t recovered from the shock.

This was truly an unpredictable fate!

Activating【Cause and Effect】was the right move.

Never mind whether they would remember the crucial scenes afterward.

Drink today’s wine today!

“Ye Ge probably wouldn’t do something like that…”

“How can I believe that? Can you give me your reasoning?”

“Hmm…”

Faced with parallel Fu Qi’s gaze, Ye Yao hesitated, as if she couldn’t provide decisive evidence.

“I remember Ye Ge said that destroying the world is her reason for existing, and the only way to stop her is to kill her.”

Parallel Fu Qi repeated what Ye Ge had meant with those words.

“Lullaby” immediately grew tense.

“If she really wanted to do that, I wouldn’t have the power to stop her. She’s invincible. You can’t defeat her.”

“Why do you say that?”

“Her essence is the dark side of the world-destroying ability. She can take back my power at any time.

If you measure strength by mental power, then her mental power might be over ten million…”

As soon as Ye Yao said this, parallel Fu Qi’s mind went blank for a moment.

What is a world-destroying ability?

What does it mean to have mental power at the level of ten million?

In this era where ten thousand mental power already lets you walk unopposed, how could such an abstract concept as ten million mental power even exist?

“Are you… joking?”

Parallel Fu Qi’s pupils shrank, and a hopelessness he had never felt before welled up deep inside him.

He desperately wanted to deny this fact.

But his instincts and the tragic scenes from his dream told him that what the girl said was most likely true.

How could anyone fight against ten million mental power?

Even if he and Lou Wei burned everything to activate the five major forms and exhausted themselves, they would have a few hundred thousand mental power at most.

They wouldn’t even reach one million. Yet, Ye Ge could go straight to ten million!

If that was the case, parallel Fu Qi finally believed what parallel Lou Wei had said.

In the scenes from his dream, the version of himself whose fate was unknown had probably really died.

No wonder he was knocked out with a single slap in the first battle.

That wasn’t even her full power!

If she got serious, a single hiss from her could destroy the entire human civilization!

If such an existence was an enemy, it was truly despairing.

No matter how hard you try, you can’t win.

Seeing parallel Fu Qi look like he was about to crack under the pressure, Ye Yao fell into thought.

She had already lowered the numbers.

From one billion down to ten million, yet it was still a despairing figure.

Should she have said “one million”?

Ye Yao cleared her throat lightly, maintaining her optimistic expression.

To others, she looked like a little sun radiating warmth forever.

“Don’t worry, I’ll do my best to stop her! That’s a magical girl’s duty!”

Parallel Fu Qi gradually snapped back to reality, calmed his emotions somewhat, and silently stared at the girl in front of him.

Back then, Ye Ge had said that his line of thought was not correct, that the target shouldn’t be her, but someone else.

The fact that she had such immense power and still took no action meant that there was a correct solution to this problem.

If it wasn’t Ye Ge, then was he supposed to target the kind, innocent, childlike girl before him?

Lullaby still hadn’t revealed her relationship with Ye Ge.

Nor had she given their exact origins.

As if she was hiding something.

She had only mentioned a “world-destroying ability”… who could understand that?

Parallel Fu Qi let out a turbid breath and didn’t press the issue any further.

“Then I’ll leave it to you. You should go rest now. Thank you for the information. I’ll make good use of it.”

“You’re welcome. Don’t worry. In the end, no one will die.”

As the white-haired girl turned and left, parallel Fu Qi sat alone in his seat, head bowed in thought.

A long sigh escaped him.

“Sigh… Lou Wei, no matter how much you pressure yourself, in the end, it might all be for nothing.”
