Ironclad, died and resurrected, I've decided to go to the mic!

"This is about 'who secretly likes you'."

After wearing it, you can see the favorability rating displayed above the heads of everyone around you.

"There's also a small feature that's not exactly a flaw: you can see other people's goodwill towards you."

Above your own head, your level of favorability towards everyone present will also be displayed.

March 7th leaned over for a look, then wrinkled its nose in disgust:

"Isn't this that... corner-to-Muli favorability system?"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Qi Ye's eyes lit up, as if she had found a kindred spirit.

"This customer has great taste! It's just like a visual novel!"

Look, what's the scariest thing about playing visual novels?

The worst thing is spending a lot of time and effort trying to win someone over, only to find that their affection level hasn't increased at all.

Choosing the wrong option leads directly to a bad ending, right?

March 7th nodded involuntarily.

"But this light cone is different!"

Qi Ye's voice rose half a tone, entering the most passionate state of a salesperson.

"Visualize your favorability rating! Real-time feedback!"

It's all crystal clear who has a crush on you, to what extent, and what caused that crush!

You no longer need to guess whether she likes me or not.

You no longer need to worry about whether saying this will offend people; you just need to look up at the sky!

He spread his hands, his expression so sincere it was as if he were imparting life's truths.

"What does it mean to know yourself and your enemy and you will never be defeated? This is it."

What does it mean to play a visual novel in easy mode? This is it.

March 7th paused for two seconds: "But I don't play visual novels."

"It's okay if you don't want to play!"

Qi Ye changed the subject abruptly.

"But the people around you might be playing around."

Imagine if someone tried to seduce you, and you were wearing this cone of light.

You'll know the moment his favorability rating increases; he can't hide it even if he wants to.

Isn't this much more reliable than some kind of sixth sense?

March 7th tilted her head, seemingly slightly moved by the angle, but still stubbornly insisted:

"If I wear it myself, won't others be able to see my favorability rating?"

Wouldn't I be at a loss then?

"You just don't understand."

Qi Ye raised a finger, shook it, and revealed a mysterious smile.

"Look, this light cone shows everyone's level of favorability towards everyone else."

If you wear it, others can indeed see you.

But—no one else is wearing one.

In other words, you can see everyone present, and among everyone present, only you can see everyone else.

March 7 blinked, his mind racing, and he realized that what he was saying sounded a bit strange.

Simply put,

Qi Ye concluded.

"If you wear it, you'll be the only person in the entire game with a full map cheat."

Others can only see you, but you can see everyone else. Is this a bad deal? No, it's not!

March 7th fell silent.

She glanced at the light cone in Qi Ye's hand, then at Dan Heng, and then at Ji Zi.

Just then, Himeko spoke.

"show me."

She reached out and took the light cone from Qi Ye's palm, looked at it over and over, and then casually patted it onto herself.

The light cone transformed into a stream of light and entered her chest.

March 7th's eyes widened: "Himeko-nee, you're wearing it already?!"

"Just curious."

Himeko smiled and glanced around the cabin.

Her gaze lingered on the tops of everyone's heads for a moment, her expression subtly shifting several times.

But she always maintained that elegant smile.

Then her gaze fell on the top of Qiye's head.

Himeko's smile paused for half a second.

She raised an eyebrow.

"interesting."

Qi Ye felt a chill run down her spine from her gaze: "...What's so interesting?"

Himeko did not answer, but simply smiled and removed the light cone.

"I want to try it too!"

Finally, on March 7th, he couldn't hold back any longer, snatched the light cone from Himeko's hand, and slapped it on himself.

The light streamed into my chest.

On March 7th, they turned their attention to Danheng.

A line of text floated above Danheng's head:

[Affection level 82, from: A reliable companion, although sometimes noisy.]

March 7th's lips twitched: "That's it?"

She then turned to look at Himeko.

A message floated above Himeko's head: [Affection level 85, from: Like a little sister, cute and fun.]

March 7th's lips curled up slightly, but he quickly suppressed it.

Then she looked up at the top of Qiye's head.

March 7th's expression froze.

She blinked to make sure she wasn't seeing things.

He blinked again to confirm that the words were indeed arranged that way.

Then her face instantly turned red.

"You...you..."

She pointed to the top of Qiye's head and stammered.

Qiye subconsciously raised her hand to touch the top of her head, but of course she couldn't feel anything:

"What did you write?"

"Your level of affection for me..."

He swallowed back what he was about to say on March 7th.

Her face turned even redder.
