Chapter 597: Chapter 284: October 25th, The Birth of the Origin Card Chapter 597: Chapter 284: October 25th, The Birth of the Origin Card Since that bizarre event at Yandai Elementary School announced the arrival of the Witch’s Night, time has passed silently like sand through fingers, the calendar in Bai Ke’s home living room getting thinner as the pages are torn off, drawing ever closer to that dangerous date.
During these two months that felt like a century, Ke Mingye was still hopping around busily.
Ordinarily, he would either act as You Minglu dealing with Shi Neian and Bai Zini, or as Lan Ou attending missions with the Superhero Association and Bai Yi Squad, or busy with various weekly and monthly tests.
In addition, if there was spare time, he would accompany Shi Neian in her Witchified form to train the new magic girls in Huanjing.
To avoid drawing attention and also to save time and effort, Shi Neian had started to shift her focus to those who were practicing at the Alliance headquarters aiming to debut as idols—For these star-path-following magic girls, “Magic Girl” was merely a convenient persona for making money, not a symbol of power; whether their magic power was slightly more or less, was essentially unimportant.
Thus, Shi Neian could safely drain their magic power for her own use.
The Sloth Witch’s ability was special; as long as she regularly absorbed magic power, her strength would rapidly improve, not to mention adding spiritual attributes by completing daily tasks on top of absorbing the magic power of the magic girls.
...
Enjoying the dual benefits from the witch and gamers, in just under two months, in Kobe’s system rating panel, Shi Neian’s Sloth Witch form had already reached a terrifying “B+” level combat power.
[Good morning, Mr. Player, today is October 25, 2028, there are 236 days left until the deadline to complete the ultimate task “Extinction of Superhumans”.]
Listening to the cold announcement, Ke Mingye as usual opened his eyes from the bed.
The room was deathly silent, so quiet that it seemed like he could hear his own heartbeat, the morning light softly disturbing the floor.
The most uptodate nove𝙡s are published on frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓.
He glanced at the familiar text twice, closed the panel, then stared at the familiar ceiling in a daze for a while, before finally turning over in bed to get up and wash.
After washing his face and fully awakening, he took a leave permit from the pillowside, then left home.
The October in Huanjing had already begun to snow, the weather quite chilling. Looking around, uneven eaves and telephone poles were all covered with a layer of snow, pedestrians on the road were wrapped in thick coats, their heavy and swaying strides resembling penguins passing by.
Ke Mingye wore a cotton jacket on top of his school uniform, hanging a pass on his neck with a red string—this early leave permit was secretly applied to the school by Commander Che on his behalf; given Commander Che’s position, the school naturally did not ask further questions and also did not notify Ke Mingye’s parents.
With this document, at least he could skip evening self-study, gaining some more free time every day to accompany the squad on duty.
Two months ago, his Divine Communication path “Nezha” had automatically advanced to the second tier.
However, Nezha still had not woken up. Each time Ke Mingye entered the welfare institute inside his skull, he would find Nezha leaning against a classroom corner’s desk, deeply asleep, with no signs of awakening.
The personalities around didn’t dare to approach rashly, otherwise, they would be bound to the wall by the Heavenly Silk surrounding Nezha, unable to move.
On this day’s journey to school, Ke Mingye suddenly felt a burst of heat around his neck.
He lowered his head and exhaled white breath, raising his hand to gently touch his neck, feeling the temperature from the Mythical Emblem—it was like an uncontrollable beast, rapidly growing in the depth of an unfathomable bush; its trunk becoming thicker, its fur getting denser, its fangs becoming sharper, the progressively rough breaths in the darkness making one’s hair stand on end.
[Mythical Path Name: Nezha]
[Mythical Path Rank: 2nd Tier]
[Mythical Path Unlocked Abilities: 1, Wind Fire Wheel; 2, Fire-tipped Spear; 3, Heavenly Silk]
Ke Mingye stared at the unlocked abilities, thinking.
“If all goes as expected, the abilities to unlock in the next few stages should be—’Qiankun Ring,’ ‘Three-headed and Six-armed,’ ‘Lotus Incarnation,’ ‘Samadhi True Fire,’ and finally the ‘Mythical Carrier’ awakened at the sixth tier.”
[The Mythical Path will automatically advance, using abilities of the Mythical Path can speed up the advancement, countdown to the advancement to 2nd tier displays — “unknown,” new powers will be unlocked after advancement.]
Seeing “unknown” displayed on the countdown, Ke Mingye knew clearly that Nezha was deliberately restraining the evolution of the path. As for the reason… it was simple—Nezha did not want the power of the path to rupture his body.
At this moment, with the temperature from his palm rapidly rising, Ke Mingye seemed to realize something.
“He’s awake…”
Ke Mingye muttered softly, raising his eyebrows, slightly widening his eyes.
Then he handed his body over to Lan Ou, his consciousness rapidly diving, and in a moment entered the welfare institute classroom inside his skull, glancing towards the corner of the classroom.
As he expected, Nezha, who had slept for two whole months, had woken up.
“Young master, have you slept comfortably these two months?”
Ke Mingye casually asked, sitting down at the desk opposite, meeting Nezha’s gaze.
Nezha with his arms crossed, glanced sideways at the sunset outside the window.
“If I didn’t sleep, you would have died quickly.”
“So it looks like you were just sleeping late, but in fact, this was your method to suppress your power?”
“More or less, whenever I feel your body can withstand my power, I will wake up. Until then, I have to maintain a sleeping state, and me waking up briefly now is just to tell you this.”
