Esper X Family – Chapter 605 – I’m Going to Poop on Your Head!

Ye Yao gave up.

If she’s first place on the popularity ranking, then let it be first place.

As everyone knows, time is the best medicine. This is just a fleeting glory; as the ages pass, all fame will dissipate like smoke.

Besides, she wasn’t the only one being embarrassed.

The thought that there were others in the same boat at the top of the Magical Girl popularity ranking made it a little less unbearable for Ye Yao.

In fact, Lou Wei was probably hit even harder!

After all, in the eyes of the public, Lou Wei had always been a man of style and class.

He was dignified, imposing, and exuded an aura of authority; the kind of person whose face told you he wasn’t to be trifled with.

But after one movie and a side story, Lou Wei’s lofty image took a nosedive. He would become much more approachable, even while putting on airs.

And since he had willingly cooperated with the filming and allowed the movie to be released, it proved that he was actually quite down-to-earth.

This stark contrast ended up drawing most of the attention away from Ye Yao. Fu Qi and Fang Ze, who also had similarly dramatic reversals in their public images, helped too.

Before the movie came out, weren’t they all universally recognized heroes?

Closely tied to national organizations, they seemed distant and untouchable, the kind of people you would hesitate to speak loudly around.

But after the globally broadcast Bluestar Defense Battle, they had become public figures, no longer just reclusive masters. In a sense, this wave of exposure further enhanced the approachability of the Countermeasures Bureau in people’s hearts.

Wasn’t this also a form of connecting with the grassroots?

Even if they couldn’t hold a candle to the great Magical Girl Lullaby, they were still popular characters with plenty of supporters.

Ye Yao made a quick comparison.

When she had first appeared, she hadn’t had any dignity to begin with. Becoming a Magical Girl only made her image cuter, shifting her appeal and temperament toward that of the group’s beloved mascot.

In a way, that also shortened the distance between herself and the people.

Ye Yao didn’t want to be saddled with the label of “god” one day. Over time, even her family dynamics might change.

“Hmm, looking at it this way, my situation isn’t that bad. Lou Wei and the others had their dignity publicly stripped away, that’s the real social death. Leave it be!”

Ye Yao decided to put the matter behind her.

She was a broad-minded person. There was no way she would let a trivial annoyance ruin her mood for slacking off.

Wasn’t it just a matter of losing dignity? She could do with a little less of that.

Just leave it be!

Of course, if someone brought it up in front of her, she would still feel uncomfortable.

“Mom, when are you going to transform into Lady Lullaby in real life and show off? I want to try being ‘White Chirp’ as a cute accessory in reality too!”

Xing Lan fluttered her wings and landed on Ye Yao’s head, apparently treating it as her permanent nest.

Ye Yao grimaced at the suggestion.

“Shut up! You’re just my cup, Xing Lan. Don’t make unreasonable demands!”

“I’m going to poop on your head!”

Ye Yao: “?”

How dare you!

This was like breaking off the roof tiles after not being disciplined for three days ¹ A common saying in a certain region of China, basically implying that if you don’t constantly discipline your kid (or in other words, if you keep spoiling the kid), they’ll be tearing off your roof tiles (being mischievous and probably putting themselves in danger). It’s standard Asian parenting. .

Ye Yao grabbed Xing Lan off her head and kneaded her like a ball of dough.

“Listen here, you little cup: you’re my pet, but I’m not your poop-scooper ² Slang for pet owners. After all, a pet owner’s job is to scoop their pets’ poop. , and you don’t even have a digestive system. Don’t say such vulgar things!”

“Waah~ Domestic violence! I’m running away from this abusive family!”

Xing Lan couldn’t fight back at all; she could only cry out in protest.

To Ye Yao, she was just a soft, sweet little white cake.

No one would ever guess that she was the physical form of the world-destroying ability.

Half a year passed in the blink of an eye.

The【Cause and Effect】trait of the world-destroying ability seemed to have gone on strike.

Ye Yao had been living comfortably during this period.

In both worlds, there were basically no incidents requiring her intervention.

She spent her days either slacking off or being on her way to slack off.

The new games from the parallel world alone kept her thoroughly entertained.

And when it came to binge-watching anime, she became completely engrossed, losing all focus.

It was like lying naked on a comfy bed, surrounded by crumpled tissue paper, utterly satisfied.

Who could compete with her at slacking off?

Still, this period wasn’t entirely uneventful. Major crises were scarce, but there were plenty of little episodes stirred up by her family members.

The parallel world version of Mo Qiuli and the others had also come to visit the original world.

After witnessing the “golden age” brought by the Magical Girl Movie, a lightbulb went off in Mo Qiuli’s little head, and she wanted to replicate it in the parallel world.

Yes, a parallel-world version of the Magical Girl Movie!

At one point, the older Mo Qiuli even knelt down, grabbed Ye Yao’s hand, and begged, “Please, Ye Yao~ I’ll do anything if you just make the movie with me!”

Ye Yao wanted to scold her sternly: “You’re only thinking of yourself!”

That way, she could protect her own dignity from further damage.

But… how could she refuse a family member’s request?

Especially when it came from older Mo Qiuli, who still had such a pure heart. Faced with those sparkling eyes, Ye Yao could only relent.

“Just this once!”

After that, the parallel version of the Magical Girl Movie was successfully released in the parallel world. It caused an explosion of popularity, pushing the Magical Girl Alliance’s fame to new heights!

Even local favorites like Lou Weiwei and Fu Qiqi had to step aside for a while.

Ye Yao successfully suffered a second round of public embarrassment.

But little did she know that this was only the beginning.

The movie’s success seemed to reignite Mo Qiuli’s passion, and it wasn’t just her. Even the Cubic Sugar, An Qi, and the others wanted to participate in more of these fun projects.

Thus, Little Mo proposed the idea of a “main series”. After all, with a movie out, it wouldn’t be right not to have a proper episodic show.

And after trying live-action performances, Mo Qiuli no longer resisted the format.

Animation was great, but the live-action was filmed by the brilliant Sen Tong, with professionals like Yi Ling and Jiang Huashen helping out.

They could completely break away from traditional filming methods and create an uninterrupted “documentary”.

Indeed, they only need to record the “playing house” inside the painting world.

Sen Tong would handle everything. Even if others were busy, Yi Ling could project their images as backup.

No one would refuse.

Ye Yao couldn’t refuse either.

She was utterly defeated by the cute begging tactics of Mo Qiuli and the others. Even Luo Jianhua and Wu Mi, who weren’t particularly keen, ended up dragged into it.

And to make the characters more lively, Ye Yao had to send a fission body to play along with them.

As it turns out, you only have “just once” before there’s no going back.

Ye Yao could never return to how things were.

As a result, her slacking off efficiency dropped a little, but overall, it was still acceptable.

The efficiency of “one Yao into three cats” was no joke.

Even if only her main body focused entirely on slacking off, she could still slack to her heart’s content.

And during these six months, Ye Yao’s attribute points hadn’t stayed stagnant either.

【Unallocated Attribute Points: 1500】

It’s been a long time since I’ve had zongzi. Eating one after so long was surprisingly good.
