Esper X Family – Chapter 718 – Speedrunning Sequence Zero in One Night

“I’m going to check on another little friend who can’t move around freely. I’ll be right back.”

With that, Ye Yao walked into the residence with practiced ease, as if she were the owner of the place.

The others exchanged puzzled glances, all equally confused.

Xia Lian finally picked herself up off the ground, but didn’t rush after Ye Yao this time.

“Mu Luo, have you told White Catty about Wu Mi’s situation yet?”

Mu Luo shook his head. “No. She showed up with An Qi and Yu Jin, so I don’t know much about her either.”

Yu Jin quickly added, “We didn’t get a chance to explain anything to her either.”

An Qi, on the other hand, wore an expression of pure admiration.

“It feels like Ye Yao knows everything, like an omniscient Immortal Fairy!”

Jiang Huashen stroked his chin with keen interest.

“Interesting. Very interesting. Just who is she, exactly? The way she looks at us is like she’s greeting old acquaintances, as if she knows everything about us. But we’ve clearly only just met. It’s utterly fascinating.”

Gu Wenxin offered no opinion.

As long as he didn’t sense any evil, that was enough.

Too bad his ability only let him detect evil. If he could reverse it, he might have seen a brilliant halo of merit shining around her.

Taking the opportunity, Yu Jin explained what he and An Qi had gone through recently, and described how they were rescued.

Everyone’s eyes went wide.

Even Xia Lian couldn’t help but gasp.

“You’re saying White Catty went into a Yunited States Esper Organization on par with the Countermeasures Bureau alone, and walked right out with you two?”

Yu Jin replayed the scene in his mind, his tone hesitant.

“I’m not sure if she was alone, actually. When we left, there seemed to be other people there. I only remember two petite girls, about the same build as Ye Yao and An Qi, dressed in cartoonish, girly outfits… like characters straight out of a kids’ channel.”

Everyone expressed confusion.

That sounded… not quite serious?

“They both felt incredibly strong to me. Just the two of them could suppress the entire Yunited States Esper Organization. And Ye Yao seemed completely at ease leaving things to them.”

Yu Jin finally finished his account.

Thankfully, his constitution had held up against all the high-risk drugs in the Sentinel Organization’s system. Otherwise, he would be unable to even speak clearly.

Jiang Huashen ventured a guess: “Could they be experts from the country? From what you’re saying, they’re at least S-rank Espers.”

Mu Luo shook his head. “In all the intel I’ve gathered, the description of those two doesn’t match any known S-rank Esper in Dragon Country.”

“Then, it seems only White Catty knows who they are?”

Xia Lian was intensely curious.

After all, Yu Jin had said they were two cute girls that were similar to Ye Yao.

That meant they were probably good friends with her. Perhaps they could even come around and meet everyone.

The real question was: what kind of “cats” were they, exactly?

It was truly intriguing.

“Speaking of which, just how powerful is White Catty? Not only can she beat me up in an instant, she can run rampant through a Yunited States Esper Organization comparable to the Countermeasures Bureau, and even teleport people across the ocean in a flash. That’s just absurd.” Xia Lian couldn’t help but grumble.

“She calls herself Sequence 001,” Mu Luo added.

He had initially harbored some doubts about Ye Yao’s claim, thinking that there was no way Sequence 001 would just show up like that.

Even after advancing to S-rank, he wouldn’t dare go after anyone in the top five sequences. He would likely get kicked dead by a stronger S-rank Esper.

But after seeing more, it seemed that only “Sequence 001” could match the abilities Ye Yao had demonstrated.

The others believed it too.

The atmosphere grew quiet.

Jiang Huashen drew a sharp breath. “The S-rank Espers of the Countermeasures Bureau aren’t going to mobilize in full force, are they?”

Xia Lian scoffed. “Even if they did, I don’t think they could elbow White Catty. The world might be changing.”

Meanwhile.

The beige-haired girl lost in her mental world finally stepped out of the looping labyrinth. It was as if some mysterious force guided her in the right direction, and she naturally regained consciousness.

And at the very moment her vision cleared, a head of snowy-white hair came into view, along with a pair of clear violet eyes, striking straight at the softest part of Wu Mi’s heart, like imprinting on a mother bird.

Coming to her senses, Wu Mi realized that she was being held in the other party’s arms, like a sleeping beauty awakened by a kiss.

Ye Yao blinked and gave a gentle smile.

“Hey~ Feeling better? Any discomfort left?”

For someone like Ye Yao, who was practically a world administrator, fixing a defective ability required no time at all. She could just open the console panel, and everything will be done with a ding.

In short, it was painless treatment.

Wu Mi didn’t have to go through a Cycle dungeon like in the first playthrough, nor did she need time to adapt like in the parallel world.

This time, Ye Yao had started the second playthrough precisely to create the perfect opening!

“Ah…”

Wu Mi’s face flushed instantly, her heart racing. Hit point-blank by Ye Yao’s charm, which worked equally well on men and women, she nearly fainted from sheer shyness.

It had to be said that after transcending the Heavenly Dao, Ye Yao had essentially become a walking humanoid succubus, radiating an intangible allure to anyone around her.

The title of “Queen of All Females ¹ Apparently a term for characters that constantly attract other female characters, with a bunch of yuri ships revolving around them. Examples are Texas from Arknights, Black Swan from HSR, etc. ” was no joke.

Especially for those treated kindly by Ye Yao. They would feel as if the world itself favored them.

That warm sensation was undoubtedly the most addictive poison.

Of course, there were some mysterious side effects too.

Like a slight boost in luck, for instance.

“I-I very good, thank you.”

Wu Mi was so nervous that she unconsciously muttered a few words in mysterious translated phrasing ² It was basically a direct Chinese translation of “I’m fine, thank you”. I just need to directly translate that to English to make it sound badly translated. .

Ye Yao nodded in satisfaction.

“Mmm, you look spirited. I can rest easy now.”

With that, Ye Yao took Wu Mi’s hand and led her outside. No one had left, and the group gravitated into a small cluster around Ye Yao again.

After all, the power she displayed was so unfathomable that it felt like she was about to rewrite everyone’s fate.

And that was precisely the case.

When Xia Lian saw Wu Mi back to normal, her mouth fell open wide enough to stuff an egg in.

“White Catty is a miracle worker!”

Such incredible combat ability, and such healing skill too.

If someone told her Ye Yao was the cat of all trades, Xia Lian would believe it.

Then, Ye Yao waved her hand lightly, and a mysterious force enveloped everyone.

They suddenly felt their bodies, which was once burdened by their abilities, become much lighter, as if all defects had been repaired.

“Mm, it looks like everyone’s here.”

Sequence Zero, reassembled!

A one-night speedrun of Sequence Zero, all because Ye Yao was a super family hero!

Although the Cubic Sugar was missing, and so was Yin Yi from the parallel world, that didn’t matter.

As the early de facto leader, Mu Luo took it upon himself to ask about the secretive White Catty’s true purpose on behalf of the others.

“What do you plan to do next?”

Ye Yao said matter-of-factly:

“I want everyone to live a happy life without having to hide or run. How’s that for an answer?”
