Esper X Family – Chapter 579 – Tamed

Day four.

Conference room.

Lou Wei had very naturally intervened with the parallel Countermeasures Bureau’s future planning.

After all, having one less or one more Lou Wei made no difference.

It was unlikely that he would seize power.

Although parallel Fu Qi hadn’t fully recovered yet, he was able to get out of bed.

Even parallel Lou Wei, who had received an extra beating, showed up.

Seeing two identical strongest of the current eras in the room felt rather surreal to the other higher-ups.

Parallel Fang Ze was the first to report on his work.

“The public education campaign on Esper knowledge is progressing rapidly. The establishment of related institutions and policies is also proceeding smoothly. Even if mass ability awakening occurs, we can keep the chaos to a minimum.”

After all, Ye Yao had already mentioned that she would make Ye Ge cosplay as the “Ancestor of Espers”.

Turning the parallel world’s Bluestar into Super Bluestar seemed like a trivial task for Ye Ge.

In Ye Yao’s words, this was compensation for the countries and people who had suffered immense losses.

To this, the high-ranking officials didn’t know what to say.

Originally, an existence of that level could have just had their fun and moved on.

There was no need to take responsibility for their actions.

After all, no one was qualified to hold them accountable.

Yet, Ye Yao had insisted on benefiting all of humanity.

She really… it truly brought tears to their eyes.

Even if parallel Fu Qi proclaimed Ye Yao the governor of Bluestar the next second, no one would likely object.

“Very good, Fang Ze. Keep pushing forward. Remember to coordinate with the Esper Organizations of other countries simultaneously. It’s necessary to establish true common grounds. I don’t want to hear any dissenting voices inside.”

Ever since the epic battle between parallel Lou Wei and Ye Ge a few days ago, the powerful nations of the world had dared not make a sound.

Simply put, as long as their countries wouldn’t be destroyed, they would probably agree to anything.

And on top of that, Ye Ge would soon display a “divine miracle” affecting all of humanity.

This was undoubtedly an opportunity to unify the forces of Bluestar.

At the very least, large-scale internal conflicts should cease.

All those ambitious careerists and capitalists ought to be eliminated from history.

“One more thing. According to the parallel world’s information, after Lou Wei activates his Solar Corona Form, it will attract an interstellar overlord capable of destroying the solar system. We need to prepare for battle.”

This was the core discussion of the meeting.

The extraterrestrial threat was undoubtedly a shadow looming over everyone’s hearts.

They had to take this disaster from beyond the heavens seriously.

Fortunately, the other world had already resolved this issue, meaning that the interstellar overlord and its warriors were beatable.

There was still some preparation time.

The high-ranking officials were generally optimistic.

However, parallel Fu Qi shook his head.

“Although the crisis in the other world has been resolved, we can’t pin our hopes entirely on that experience. After all, in the end, they relied on Ye Ge to solve the greatest threat.”

Beside him, Lou Wei nodded.

To be honest, even now, he wasn’t confident that he could defeat the interstellar overlord.

Having a savior fall from the sky was still too much.

Unless his parallel self could activate Solar Flare Form and go all out against the interstellar overlord.

Otherwise, every single one of them would be crushed like a speed bump under the overlord.

Then, someone asked cautiously.

“Can’t we let Ye Ge handle it this time too?”

Parallel Fu Qi shook his head.

“Don’t get your hopes up. Ye Ge is special. She won’t recognize human ties and won’t actively intervene in everything.”

Sometimes, she wouldn’t even listen to Ye Yao.

She was simply more divine than human.

Besides, even if Ye Ge did step in, it would likely only be as a last resort.

By then, humanity’s home would probably be in tatters.

Just like in the other world.

Parallel Fu Qi wanted to minimize losses, ideally eliminating the alien enemies before they even arrived at Bluestar.

He then looked at Lou Wei.

“When will you leave this world?”

Lou Wei shook his head. “I don’t know. I haven’t even figured out how I got here. It might have something to do with Ye Ge.”

“Perfect. You’ll join us to intercept the interstellar overlord’s biological warship then. Unless absolutely necessary, let’s not turn Bluestar into a battlefield.”

Parallel Fu Qi’s plan was good.

A powerful fighter for free, it would be a shame not to use him.

Although Lou Wei sometimes didn’t seem entirely human, he was at least a qualified fighter.

Having one was already overpowered.

Now that there were two, why waste the parallel world Lou Wei? He would be exploited to the fullest.

“Fine, but I can’t guarantee victory.”

Lou Wei didn’t mind.

Since he didn’t know how to return to his original world yet, he could help out here.

After all, his original world didn’t need his combat power anyway.

With Fu Qi there, no matter what happened, they would have a safety net.

He still had Void Form to fall back on.

And Ye Yao was also staying in this world for now. With someone familiar around, she might feel a bit more at ease.

Then, parallel Lou Wei spoke up.

“I can try to activate Solar Flare Form when the time comes. The chances of success are high.”

Even after being beaten, he held no grudge and could still perform his duties normally.

Parallel Fu Qi raised an eyebrow, surprised.

“Can you really do it?”

“I still remember some of the feeling. It’s possible.”

After that great battle, the “switch” for Solar Flare Form seemed to have been etched into his very soul.

Even without the Vengeful Spirit, he could probably push himself to the limit and self-destruct.

Although it would be much weaker than the version with the Vengeful Spirit, it should be enough.

Worst case, he could explode alongside the interstellar overlord.

But the resoluteness in parallel Lou Wei’s words made the expressions of several people in the room turn peculiar.

Especially parallel Xiao Jing, who looked like she was about to boil over.

When would this guy ever learn to care about his daughter’s feelings?

But before she could speak, standard Lou Wei interjected nonchalantly.

“And after you activate it? Can you guarantee your survival? Have you forgotten your lesson?

Let me remind you: you’d better not let her know about this kind of self-sacrificing decision.”

As soon as he said this.

Parallel Lou Wei’s body went stiff, as if he already felt the immense pressure coming.

He had indeed forgotten about that.

With Ye Ge around, he probably wouldn’t be able to make a clean, heroic sacrifice, nor would he be able to just die and leave everything behind.

It would be fine if he died completely.

But the problem was, how would he face an angry Ye Yao after being saved by Ye Ge’s hand?

That child clearly valued family above all.

She would explode with pressure.

Parallel Lou Wei could only set that dangerous idea aside.

“I’ll be careful.”

Parallel Xiao Jing looked at Lou Wei with a hint of surprise.

Compared to a numerical increase in power, this was real growth!

This world’s counterpart still had a lot to learn.

Even parallel Fu Qi couldn’t help but silently sigh in amazement.

He had never thought that Lou Wei would one day become human.

Looks like he’s been tamed.

But thinking about what had happened in the other world…

This Lou Wei who had grown so much had truly gone through all the necessary trials.

Truly the pressure-resistant king.

Author Note

It seems the outdoor unit of my neighbor’s air conditioner is fixed now. At least I don’t have to hear that rumbling noise anymore.
