Esper X Family – Chapter 626 – Almost Had a Cardiac Arrest

On the sofa.

Ye Tong nodded thoughtfully.

“A new magical girl? It certainly feels that way. Little Mo will be very happy to know about this.

You’re doting on her so much that you’ve already started scouting magical girl candidates for her.”

“Don’t put it that way, it sounds so ambiguous. Can’t it just be that I feel a strong connection with Silver Frost, and our personalities match, so I wanted to bring her along to have fun?”

“Since you put it that way, of course I have no objections. I find the little one quite pleasing to the eye as well.”

With that, Ye Tong rose and left, tossing back a remark.

“If she’s going to step into this circle, there are some things she can learn in advance, so Little Silver Frost won’t be caught off guard later.”

“What things?”

Watching Ye Tong enter a room, Silver Frost refrained from probing with her mental power, although curiosity stirred within her.

Before long, Ye Tong emerged from the room.

Behind her followed two petite little girls.

One of them had long, flowing hair that was long enough to sweep the floor. The single eye mark on her forehead was very conspicuous, but what stood out even more were her elf-like pointed ears, distinctly unlike those of modern humans.

The other girl was similar, although her hair wasn’t as long. She also had pointed ears and delicate, exquisite features. Her most striking trait was her eyes, which seemed to contain swirling nebulae, making her look extraordinary.

Holding one girl in each hand, Ye Tong sat down beside them and looked at the curious Silver Frost.

“You haven’t met them before, have you?”

“They’re very unfamiliar…”

Silver Frost answered honestly.

Under the【Myriad Analysis】protocol, they hadn’t retrieved any information about these two from Bluestar’s databases. They hadn’t even appeared in the Magical Girl films.

That wasn’t all.

They were absent even from surveillance footage.

Ye Tong nodded.

“That’s not surprising. They’re not used to living in the outside world, and they dislike appearing in public view. They usually hole up in another space like complete homebodies.”

Sen Tong and Yi Ling rarely appeared in the outside world.

Even when they emerged from the painting world, they avoided exposure to surveillance cameras.

Even when Yi Ling provided some extraterrestrial knowledge to the researchers at the Countermeasure Bureau’s headquarters, she never appeared in person. She would only send a projection to convey the information.

To this day, the general public remained unaware of Sen Tong and Yi Ling’s existence.

Even though Lou Wei and the others already knew, they wouldn’t input their data into the information database.

They were perfect candidates to introduce to Silver Frost.

Instead of immediately introducing the two, Ye Tong posed a question to Silver Frost.

“Little Silver Frost, what’s your view on alien civilizations?”

At those words, not only Silver Frost but even White Comet, who was sharing her auditory senses, nearly jumped in shock.

Could it be… had her identity been exposed!?

“Wh-What do you mean?”

Silver Frost looked both nervous and puzzled, fitting perfectly with her “village girl” persona.

“I just want to know how you feel about alien lifeforms, whether you have any fanatic purifier tendencies or extreme xenophobic views.”

“As long as we can get along peacefully… and their appearance fits my aesthetic, I suppose I could accept them…”

Silver Frost gave a relatively conservative answer.

Ye Tong nodded. “Exactly. That’s what I think too. Since we share the same view, that makes things easy.”

She then pushed Sen Tong and Yi Ling forward and introduced them separately.

“This girl with the floor-length hair is Sen Tong, and the one with the expressionless face is Yi Ling. Actually, you should already know their other identities.”

Ye Tong paused briefly before continuing.

“If you’ve watched footage of the Bluestar Defense Battle, you’ve technically seen them before. Sen Tong was the one who initiated the global broadcast, and you can call her by her other name: the All-Knowing Demon Eye.”

“Eh!?”

Silver Frost was genuinely on the verge of cardiac arrest!

The All-Knowing Demon Eye was a famously powerful race across the universe.

Their strength lay not in combat, but in their information-gathering capabilities.

In Bluestar terms, they were essentially doxxing experts.

With a single glance, they could extract the “information pheromones” embedded in a target’s mental power, sometimes even surpassing the Watcher Civilization’s【Myriad Analysis】protocol.

Before descending to Bluestar, Silver Frost had already used technological means to reshape herself inside and out to appear fully human.

After all, intelligence indicated that following the Bluestar Defense Battle, the All-Knowing Demon Eye had gone missing, and there was a possibility that it had survived.

To guard against the risk of being doxxed by the All-Knowing Demon Eye, the fleet had extracted some mental power from Bluestar’s natives to form an information protection membrane.

Theoretically, it could interfere with the All-Knowing Demon Eye’s perception.

However, the All-Knowing Demon Eye race had long been extinct, and the Watcher Civilization had no way to verify whether this method was effective.

If she were exposed on the spot by the All-Knowing Demon Eye, wouldn’t she explode on the scene?

Silver Frost was already prepared to take her own life and depart from this world.

Yet, Sen Tong merely cast a faint glance at Silver Frost, showing no obvious interest.

“I have discarded that name. Please call me Sen Tong. That is the name Master gave me, and I am proud of it!”

“Ah, hello, Sen Tong… I’m Silver Frost.”

Seeing Sen Tong’s lack of reaction, Silver Frost assumed that her disguise was working perfectly and let out a silent sigh of relief.

In truth, that wasn’t the case at all.

Sen Tong had simply been instructed by Ye Tong beforehand.

Then, Ye Tong introduced the other one.

“This one is Yi Ling. She also appeared during the Bluestar Defense Battle. She was originally called the Memory Spirit. She hadn’t committed any major offenses, so I secretly took her in and recruited her.”

“Hello.”

Yi Ling gave Silver Frost a nod as a greeting.

Silver Frost never expected that a “Universal Chronicler” was still alive on Bluestar!

One could only say that a certain Interstellar Overlord had committed so many atrocities that it had turned many powerful races into unique, solitary remnants.

The Memory Spirits had a relatively good reputation across the universe. After all, they were not a warlike race and could be considered a neutral faction.

Originally, the Watcher Civilization had also harbored a Memory Spirit.

But the moment it returned to reunite with its kin, the interstellar overlord nearly wiped out the entire race.

The one before her was likely the last surviving Memory Spirit taken away by that overlord.

In a sense, she was a treasure of the universe.

This Memory Spirit might even know of the Watcher Civilization’s existence!

Silver Frost felt even more like she was walking on thin ice.

“Nice to meet you too, Yi Ling. I’m Silver Frost…”

Reαԁ oո ΚatRеаⅾinɡCαfе

“Mm, I’ve recorded it.”

There was probably no more authoritative historical record than the remembrance of a Memory Spirit.

Yet, Silver Frost couldn’t find any joy in it, only pressure.

Ye Tong smiled slightly.

“So? Now that you know their true identities, do you feel afraid?”

“Because they look very cute and seem easy to get along with, I’m not that afraid…” Silver Frost said hesitantly.

“Exactly. That’s what I think too.

Even if they once invaded Bluestar, as long as they haven’t committed any fundamental wrongs, I can forgive them.

Not only will I not treat them as slaves. I’m willing to shelter them and regard them as my companions.

The only price is that they abandon their original forms and take on these human-shaped bodies that better match my aesthetic.”

“Indeed…”

Suddenly, Silver Frost felt that Ye Tong might not be so scary after all.

Eating KFC on non-Thursdays is rich people behavior…
