Esper X Family – Chapter 585 – Amazing Little Magical Tools

The night was dark and the wind was high.

Fu Qi and Lou Wei could very well compete for the title of the two most melancholic people across the universe.

With a formidable enemy at the gates, one of their strongest combatants had suddenly vanished, rendering the battle plan that relied on the three of them as its core completely useless.

How could they face the enemy now?

“Lou Wei, it’s just the two of us now. Would we lose?”

“Nah, we’d win.”

Parallel Lou Wei’s answer was very brief, showing no fear of the impending interstellar foe.

Parallel Fu Qi gave him a skeptical look.

“Are you planning to use Solar Flare Form?”

“If there’s no other choice, I will. I can’t seal away this technique just because it might upset Ye Yao. Even if we’re saved in the end, I can face her reproach with a clear conscience.”

Parallel Lou Wei said this calmly.

To be honest, he was clearly stronger than Standard Lou Wei. He had three extra years of experience, plus the Solar Flare Form he had developed recently.

Once he activated it, the so-called interstellar overlord would be nothing more than a chicken or a dog.

He was still invincible.

Ye Ge was not an enemy.

Parallel Lou Wei had thought it through clearly.

Using his Solar Flare Form wasn’t about blowing himself up at the slightest provocation, nor was it about not valuing his own life.

Personal attachments meant nothing in the face of the world’s safety.

He could treat Ye Yao like his own daughter, but he didn’t want to forget his mission.

If Ye Ge wasn’t willing to step up, then he would.

If he had to consider all the possible consequences before giving it his all, his efforts wouldn’t be pure.

He could consider it as setting an example for his daughter.

“Ah, this…”

Parallel Fu Qi seemed to want to say something but stopped himself, as if giving up on persuading him.

“Forget it. Use it if you have to. Perhaps you’re right.”

“…I hope so.”

Parallel Lou Wei sighed softly and looked up at the bright moon.

Only the two of them could stop the interstellar overlord and its warriors from descending upon Bluestar.

No one else was qualified to participate in a battle of this level.

In another parallel world, there were indeed many familiar faces who had shone brightly.

But this time, to minimize unnecessary losses, they would have to miss out on this trial.

This time, they truly had to rely on just the two of them.

They had to win, no matter what.

And just then.

Parallel Lou Wei suddenly saw a figure streak across the sky, descending like an envoy from the moon.

That woman… she’s here!

“…Ye Ge.”

Parallel Fu Qi also spotted Ye Ge’s figure, a hint of surprise appearing on his face.

Could it be…

Is she going to help!?

If Ye Ge so much as lifted a finger, would the two of them need to fight to the death?

She could kick the interstellar overlord to death without breaking a sweat.

However, Ye Ge stopped at a height they could only look up to. Her indifferent gaze seemed to see right through their thoughts, and the first words out of her mouth were a denial.

“I won’t help you, and I won’t make a move.”

Parallel Fu Qi’s expression immediately fell.

Parallel Lou Wei wasn’t particularly surprised.

He had fought her not long ago. It would be strange if she offered a helping hand.

In the end, he and Parallel Fu Qi would have to go themselves.

But then, Ye Ge changed her tone.

“Of course, I’m not a monster, either.”

With that, she tossed two objects toward them.

They both caught one. The objects looked like rolled-up scrolls.

Are these Jiang Huashen’s ability constructs?

They quickly guessed the nature of the scrolls.

Why would Ye Ge give them something like this?

Even the《Tong Yao》that Jiang Huashen had created using Creation Form in their memories probably wouldn’t be of much use.

Then, they unrolled the scrolls and saw what was written on them, and their faces changed.

What… is this thing?

It even had a settings introduction!

Parallel Lou Wei and Parallel Fu Qi didn’t dare to even consider that possibility!

Unfortunately, Ye Ge wasn’t about to give them a chance to avoid it.

“This tool will let you change your appearance, and it has a second-stage transformation. Just follow what’s written on it, and you will gain the power to defeat the interstellar overlord without any danger to your lives.”

Parallel Fu Qi’s hands were trembling as he gripped the scroll.

Parallel Lou Wei’s lips were twitching uncontrollably.

Was it really worth sacrificing their pride and dignity to defeat an enemy capable of destroying the solar system?

The answer is yes.

“Thank you… for your help.”

Parallel Fu Qi practically squeezed those words through gritted teeth.

This ancestor still hadn’t let them off the hook.

But at least she had shown some mercy.

After all, this was still a way to defeat the interstellar overlord.

And this battle would be in space!

The only ones on the battlefield would be the enemy and themselves.

As long as they took out the All-Knowing Demon Eye immediately, they wouldn’t have to worry about any images leaking.

Rеаd oո КаtRеaԁіnɡСafe

Besides, it couldn’t reach Bluestar anyway!

The All-Knowing Demon Eye wouldn’t have a chance to livestream.

As long as no one else found out, it wouldn’t be embarrassing!

Ye Ge gave them a meaningful look.

“Do your best. Do not disappoint me.”

The next moment.

Her black-haired figure vanished, as if she had never been there.

Only the scrolls in Parallel Fu Qi and Parallel Lou Wei’s hands proved that Ye Ge had visited moments ago.

Parallel Fu Qi looked down at the scroll in his hands again and felt his scalp prickle.

“Lou Wei, do we really have to use these?”

“If we don’t, she’ll be unhappy.”

“You’re right.”

Parallel Fu Qi saw that point too.

These were tools Ye Ge had personally handed to them.

If they didn’t use them, who knew what capricious thing she might do?

After all, Ye Ge’s strength was comparable to a god. They could only play along with her.

Besides, compared to their original plan, this unexpected help was actually the lowest-cost option.

Perhaps they could even avoid getting pressure from Ye Yao!

As long as they killed the All-Knowing Demon Eye immediately, there wouldn’t even be any cost at all.

In the end, they would just be putting on a “clown show” for Ye Ge.

It was well worth it!

Ye Ge hadn’t actually left. She was watching from the shadows, transmitting the thoughts of the two men to her main body.

“Their first thought is to kill Parallel Sen Tong immediately?”

Reаd оո КαtRеαdіոgСαfе

It seemed that even the strongest of the current era and the strongest in history didn’t want to die socially.

Their very first idea upon receiving the tools was to kill the All-Knowing Demon Eye, who had the ability to broadcast everything.

After all, as veterans with memories of the first playthrough, they were top-tier information hounds.

They had planned it out perfectly.

But how could Ye Yao let that happen?

Using a cheat without paying a price? There’s no such thing as a free lunch!

Besides, she, Ye Yao, had died a social death as well!

The magical girl legacy had to continue!

As far as others were concerned, the reason Ye Yao became a magical girl was definitely her old man’s influence!

That way, she wouldn’t be embarrassed alone.

Parallel Sen Tong and Parallel Yi Ling absolutely had to be protected. One could never have too many tools.

What Parallel Lou Wei and Parallel Fu Qi absolutely wouldn’t expect was that Ye Yao had brought a filming expert with enhanced camera-work abilities from the original world – Sen Tong.

This parallel world happened to be short on entertainment.

Back in the original world, Ye Yao at least livestreamed a few secrets and even followed up on the Bluestar defense battle.

But in this parallel world, aside from the formulaic “spiritual energy revival”, there was no other fun.

No one knew who Fu Qi and Lou Wei were.

This was the perfect opportunity to make them famous!

How could heroes be left in obscurity?

“Interstellar stray dog, We’re waiting for you. Come and receive the judgment of magical girls!”

Ye Yao’s heart was full of anticipation.

There was no time to mourn the departure of those taking the college entrance exam; the next to arrive on the battlefield is— High school entrance examination.
