Esper X Family – Chapter 641 – Apologize by Exposing Your Belly

Ye Yao felt that “Ye Ge’s” reputation had been unfairly maligned.

She had never expected that, despite nagging about it in Silver Frost’s ear so many times, she still hadn’t managed to change Silver Frost’s deeply ingrained impression of Ye Ge as an exceedingly ferocious being.

Come on. Even if she was ferocious, that was only toward enemies like the interstellar stray dog.

Toward her own people, Ye Ge had shown nothing but the utmost kindness in the world.

The incidents involving the brutal beatdown of her old man and the metaslave mentors didn’t count.

It seemed that only through personal experience could Silver Frost ever shed that awful misconception.

“Aren’t you forgetting something?”

Ye Ge’s voice was light and casual, carrying no coercion and not a trace of killing intent, as if it were merely an ordinary reminder.

At that cue, Silver Frost finally remembered a certain procedure.

As a member of the Watcher Civilization, which upheld morals and principles, even when facing imminent death, one must still uphold one’s conduct.

Silver Frost was an intruder. She had entered human civilization’s territory without permission, and had even concealed her identity while approaching Ye Yao with ulterior motives.

After Ye Ge discovered this, she had every justifiable reason to annihilate the entire expeditionary fleet.

Silver Frost also understood that the fault lay with her first. Before a higher level of force, the supposed superiority of a civilization’s rank was useless.

Cursing and yelling at this point was meaningless.

In fact, Silver Frost simply couldn’t bring herself to do such a thing.

If it were just the total loss of the expeditionary fleet, that might still be manageable. However, she feared that Ye Ge might set her sights on the Watcher Civilization in the distant starfield.

The thought that had surfaced from the very beginning flashed through Silver Frost’s mind again.

Regardless, this sacrifice was deserved, and she had to find a way to minimize Ye Ge’s hostility toward the Watcher Civilization at all costs.

And the only thing Silver Frost could do now was offer a sincere apology.

Since Commander White Comet had likely already fallen in battle, she had to be the one to carve out a path of survival for the Watcher Civilization.

“I-I’m sorry! I never truly intended to befriend Ye Yao! I approached her with ill intentions. I beg you to spare the Watcher Civilization. I will atone with my death!”

Silver Frost bowed her head in apology, nearly dropping to her knees, not daring to meet Ye Ge’s expression.

Ye Ge gave a small nod, then said something that left Silver Frost dumbfounded.

“Lie down. Expose your belly ¹ It’s usually the most vulnerable part of an animal, so showing it is a sign of submission or that they feel comfortable/safe enough to expose it. .”

“Huh?”

Although she didn’t understand, Silver Frost complied without question.

Ye Ge crouched down, placed her hand on Silver Frost’s lower belly, and began gently stroking it as if she were petting a small animal.

Faced with such a non-hostile gesture, Silver Frost felt both embarrassed and utterly astounded.

Shocking! What a wild universe!

Kids, it turns out that showing your belly to apologize really works!

Silver Frost suddenly felt a twinge of melancholy.

What a pity about Commander White Comet, who had fallen in battle. She must have resisted fiercely back then. If only she had thought to lie down and show her belly in time, maybe the outcome would have been different.

Oh! Right!

And Black Haze!

Since Ye Ge had already come after her, she would certainly go after Black Haze, who was also in hiding.

She had to warn Black Haze immediately about the trick to surviving under Ye Ge’s hand.

Otherwise, she was done for!

Silver Frost truly didn’t like Black Haze, who worked under Gray Marsh, but they were still compatriots from the same civilization. She couldn’t just stand by and watch her die.

【Silver Frost plans to have Black Haze apologize by exposing her belly too.】

Ye Ge held back her laughter.

Even at a time like this, you’re still thinking about others?

Hachi-Silver ² Explained it a few times, but Hachimi was really popular in China, and they turned it into a bazillion of memes. , really… I’m crying, you know!

【Silver Frost plans to have the other Observers apologize by exposing their bellies too.】

Yeah, let’s not.

That image was a bit much.

It wasn’t like all of them were cute girls.

“I forgive you. You don’t have to die.”

After rubbing Silver Frost’s belly for quite a while, Ye Ge finally spoke up, giving a clear and definitive answer.

This also meant that Silver Frost no longer had to carefully hide herself, nor worry that her exposure would bring catastrophe upon the Watcher Civilization.

Although the expeditionary fleet was likely already destroyed, Silver Frost couldn’t say she felt much hatred.

Even total annihilation was merely the bitter price paid for an arrogant decision.

As a member of the Watcher Civilization, most could accept the consequences of strategic misjudgment.

It was just a pity about Commander White Comet. If only she had thought to lie down and expose her belly in time.

Silver Frost still lingered on thoughts of White Comet, whom she had already tacitly assumed had become a spirit in the heavens.

Now that she herself had been spared, she had to think about what came next.

“I-I will leave Ye Yao. I won’t appear before her again. Please rest assured… I won’t entertain any thoughts of getting close to her anymore…”

Silver Frost carefully stated her position.

【Silver Frost is reluctant to leave you, yet she is too afraid to face you again. She is worried about seeing you sad or upset, and feels that she no longer deserves to be your friend.】

If you leave, what will I eat?

That thought flashed through Ye Ge’s mind.

After becoming family, you still want to run? Have you asked the Found Family System about that?

Whether she hid in some corner of Bluestar or returned all the way to the Watcher Civilization, Ye Ge would drag her back.

“Is that so? Is that really what you think?”

Ye Ge’s tone was somewhat ambiguous, making it impossible to guess her true intention.

Just then, space rippled, and a silver-haired girl descended from above.

Silver Frost turned her head and saw Ye Tong, someone she hadn’t seen since that day!

Ye Tong was humming a cheerful tune, swaggering toward them with no trace of surprise at the scene, as if everything had gone exactly as expected.

Before Silver Frost could speak, Ye Tong also crouched down and began rubbing Silver Frost’s soft, smooth belly, as if savoring some hard-won trophy.

Too bad the main body was still busy dealing with Black Haze.

Otherwise, they could have completed the yuri trio ³ 姬头三ji tou san. It’s a play on 基头四ji tou si, a group of four gay men from the Hong Kong manga《海虎》. 姬佬ji lao is slang for lesbian, 头 means “head”, and 三 is three. It’s often used for the groups of 3-4 girls you often see on Japanese media. .

And too bad her mental power hadn’t reached S-rank yet. Otherwise, she could have made it a full yuri quartet.

Then, Silver Frost would definitely be in for endless surprises!

Oh, right.

Perhaps she could get Luo Jianhua and the others involved, have them circle around and surround Silver Frost, each saying “Congratulations ⁴ Evangelion reference. ” in turn. That would be pretty fun.

Though it might be a bit hard on Silver Frost.

Ye Tong temporarily set that rather unhinged idea aside and met Silver Frost’s gaze.

“Why are you looking at me with such a nervous expression? It’s almost pitiful. I actually like you a lot, you know.”

“Y-You… how…”

Before Silver Frost could finish, Ye Tong completed the sentence for her.

“You want to ask how I’m not surprised at all, and how long I’ve known about this?”

Silver Frost didn’t respond, merely staring at her with wide, anxious eyes.

Ye Tong gave a faint smile.

“The answer is simple. From the very first moment I saw you, I already knew everything.

Otherwise, did you think that ‘No matter where you come from, I’ll treat you like family’ line was just a casual greeting?

You probably didn’t know this, but we can read a person’s mind without leaving a trace. Who is an enemy and who is a friend, nothing is hidden from our eyes.”

Hearing this, Silver Frost finally realized that the intelligence gathered by【Myriad Analysis】was completely outdated!

Then, she quickly caught on to something else, and her tone turned anxious.

“When you say ‘we’… does that include Ye Yao too?”
