The losers in daily youth have all become witches

Page 206

Even Yukinoshita Yukino, who hadn't said much, rarely showed a smile of approval. It seemed that she was secretly pleased that Li Mo was able to solve the problem.

Before Yanami could say anything, the chair under her butt creaked under the weight, and then broke into pieces, causing the girl to sit down on the ground.

Yanai, who was unable to react, was stunned: "What's going on?"

"Because you have successfully merged with the other Yanami, theoretically, you now possess four times the power of the past under normal circumstances."

Li Mo said.

"Really? Then I'd be Superman!"

Yana asked with a beaming expression.

"And, also because you merged three of your other selves into your body,"

Li Mo continued in silence, "So your weight has now quadrupled."

“…Nooo ...

The girl's screams pierced the sky of Sobu High School at this moment.

Yuigahama Yui and Chihaya Aine, who were standing by, suddenly felt sincerely grateful that this incident did not happen to them.

Chapter 373 Ceremony.

"Okay, stop looking so sad. It's not necessarily a bad thing."

Li Mo comforted in a mysterious tone.

Yanai's eyes lit up: "Could it be that..."

"For example, you won't have to worry about running into any bad guys anymore, right? You can just crush them to death with just pressure."

"I can't be happy at all!"

Yanami shouted, "At least let me defeat the villains in a more normal way, like with Guang○Bishoujo!"

"It's not impossible, but after mastering artificial magic, I still hope that you can act like a magician rather than a legendary warrior."

Li Mo said leisurely: "Also, there is no need to be so depressed. You should know that in a sense, you can already be considered my witch."

Yanaijian couldn't help but feel hopeful again: "Could it be that..."

"That's right, you have to serve me like a maid."

"That's terrible! This is the second worst news I've heard today!"

The girl covered her face as if struck by a bolt from the blue.

"What about the worst one?"

Li Mo asked curiously.

"It must be four times her weight. There's nothing worse for a girl than this."

Yuigahama Yui gently elbowed Li Mo's waist, causing him to make a "Man! Oh no, it should be Woman!" sound effect, and whispered: "Don't ask such ignorant questions!"

Then she stared at Li Mo with a strange look: "What's going on with that other waiter?"

"Hey, isn't this the Service Club?"

Li Mo showed an artificial expression of shock.

"I've already explained the meaning of the Service Club. If Asakura-san still insists on interpreting it in that obscene way, then I can only begin to doubt whether your memory is the same as that of a fish that can only remember for seven seconds."

Yukinoshita Yukino closed the book and looked at Li Mo seriously.

"Yukinoshita--"

Regarding Yukinoshita Yukino, the famous ice beauty in Sobu High School, who was rumored to get frostbite (referring to the soul) if you looked into her eyes, Li Mo met her gaze without any fear and spoke in a serious tone.

"It's a myth that fish only have a seven-second memory."

"That's not the point!"

Chihaya Aine, who was a little frightened by the confrontational atmosphere among her seniors, couldn't help but complain.

"Ahaha, the service thing was just a joke. After all, I'm not some evil god worshipped by some weird religion. Just a joke about the service department~"

Li Mo smiled brightly and jokingly skipped over the topic: "But regarding the shrine maiden herself, I still have something to tell you, Yanaijian, such as some things that are unique to shrine maidens..."

Seeing that his attitude was finally not as frivolous as before, Yanai, who had originally sealed her heart and locked away her love, felt that she seemed to be looking forward to it again. She stared at Li Mo: "Could it be that..."

"Simply put, in order to maintain the connection between us, you, as a believer, must perform daily rituals to flatter the gods... ahem, to dedicate your faith."

Li Mo said: "It's like the Kagura dance in Shintoism, the worship in Christianity, the meditation and chanting in Buddhism, etc."

Yanaijian slumped over the table with a frustrated expression that said, "I shouldn't have believed this guy."

"Flattering...ah..."

Yukinoshita Yukino said meaningfully.

"Flattering..."

Yuigahama Yui didn't know what she was thinking about, and her pretty face turned slightly red.

"Are you kidding me again?"

Chihaya Aine spoke frankly, "Because Asakura-san is quite mean."

"It would be meaningless if I said it too early."

Li Mo said cheerfully.

Yanami is a type with a lot of expressions. Now because of his words, his expression kept changing. It was quite interesting and I started to enjoy it without realizing it.

Of course, Li Mo was not lying completely.

"As I just said, the relationship between Yanami and I is similar to that between a god and his followers. Yanami herself has no magic power, and her physique doesn't allow her to absorb magic power from others like I do. [Flash Marks], a superficial way of storing magic power, doesn't meet the needs either. In times like this, a special method of supplying and demanding magic power is needed, which is the connection between god and human."

He explained to everyone, "Believers perform specific rituals to offer their faith to the gods in exchange for supernatural powers. While this kind of interaction is rare in our world, it seems to be quite common in other worlds. So what I said before wasn't entirely a joke. Yanami does need to perform rituals to maintain her connection with me in exchange for magic power from me to maintain her artificial spell, 'Zhong'."

By the way, although the artificial spell [Zhong] has the word "spell" in its name, it is actually fundamentally different from other spells. If I must say, the current [Zhong] is more like a "divine spell".

At the same time, because the supernatural framework of [Zhong] completely comes from the extension of the "difference" in Yanami, even if it was created by Li Mo, Li Mo cannot use this spell. This thing is exclusive to Yanami.

"So, the key point is the so-called 'ritual' used to maintain the connection between you, right?"

Yukinoshita Yukino quickly grasped the key to Li Mo's long and difficult sentence: "What kind of ceremony is that? How often is it held? Can it be completed alone, or does it require the help of others (Yukino glanced at Li Mo)?"

"Are you really going to let Kyouna flatter Takuma Tan?"

Yuigahama Yui said with a strange look on her face: "I seem to have heard that in Shintoism, the shrine maiden is the wife of the god..."

"Even if I were to find a miko who could be my wife, even if I were to find a real god, I wouldn't choose Yana."

Li Mo sneered.

"You're being too mean! I don't want to be Asakura-san's wife, but isn't it a bit excessive to be so mean?"

Yanai frowned and complained dissatisfiedly: "What's wrong with me?"

"I think he weighs four times a normal person."

"Gu, kill me..."

Yanami, who had just stood up, collapsed on the table in despair again, with ketchup on her fingers (Chihaya Aine: Why are there French fries and ketchup here? Do ordinary people eat this in the morning?) and the words "The murderer is Asakura" were written on it.

"Okay, stop playing tricks,"

Li Mo knocked on the other person's forehead helplessly, causing the girl to cover her forehead and look at him indignantly: "Listen to me carefully, don't you want to know about the ceremony?"

Chapter 374: New Emblem.

After all, this is a topic that concerns whether he can live a normal life in the future, so Yanaijian still sat there obediently waiting for Li Mo's next words.

Then Li Mo stretched out his hand and put his thumb towards the palm.

"Four meals."

"what?"

Yanai saw the confusion in his eyes and said, "Do you want me to treat you to four meals? Is vegetarian noodles okay?"

"Haven't you finished eating that..."

Li Mo complained at first, then shook his head: "Breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, afternoon tea, midnight snacks... whatever is fine, anyway, 'eating four meals a day' is the ritual I set."

"That's great. It's not some weird ritual."

Yuigahama Yui breathed a sigh of relief and was about to congratulate Yanami, but she noticed that Yanami's expression was extremely grim: "Kyouna?"

"You mean, I can only choose four meals a day from those?"

Yanai confirmed to Li Mo with a pale face.

"Yes."

Li Mo nodded: "Only four meals."

"If it exceeds..."

The girl asked Li Mo as if she was holding on to her last glimmer of hope.

"Double it."

Li Mo replied with a smile, and killed the girl's fantasy: "Including weight."

"Gu, kill me..."

"This joke has already been played."

Yanaken banged his head against the table in despair, wailing like a fired house-elf.

Seeing this, Chihaya Aine asked Yukinoshita Yukino, somewhat bewildered, "Um... is there something wrong with my common sense? While it's a bit troublesome to 'have' to eat four meals a day—mainly because of the calories—it's not as desperate as Yana-kun-senpai, right? Compared to other potentially troublesome rituals, isn't this quite easy?"

“That’s for the average person.”

Yukinoshita Yukino spoke concisely.

"So, Yanami-senpai is not an ordinary person?"

Chihaya Aine tilted her head in thought.

"By the way, Yana saw that you had breakfast today, right?"

Li Mo asked suddenly.

"Well, what happened?"

Yanami asked in a disheartened voice.

Li Mo didn't say anything, but just cast his eyes on the plate of French fries next to the girl, which came from nowhere.

Yanaijian seemed to realize something immediately, his expression became even more horrified, and his face turned pale with fear: "In other words..."

"You can't eat anything except lunch and dinner until 12 o'clock tonight."

Li Mo said.
