What a joke! Magical girls, just obediently get hypnotized!

"Otto, my friend~"

Just then, Bai Lixia suddenly spoke up with a smile, breaking the silence with a sweet voice.

"Ok?"

Lynn slightly raised her eyes and looked at Bai Lixia.

Then, the latter pointed to himself:

"I am the magical girl Jinxiu,"

Another finger pointed at Ling Yuwei:

"She is the magical girl Irene."

Not sisters, starting with zero frames?!

Upon hearing this, even though she was already prepared, Ling Yuwei still lost her composure.

Although she guessed that Bai Lixia was planning something big, she didn't expect her to go this far!

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Ling Yuwei quickly looked at Lin En.

"I'm sorry, Yuwei,"

Bai Lixia turned her head, her smile unchanged, but a hint of cunning appeared in her eyes:

"However, I haven't broken our agreement. There are no outsiders here, only 'our own people,' right?"

"Ah."

Lynn nodded.

What are you humming about again?

Doesn't this calm demeanor expose everything?

Without giving Ling Yuwei any time to process or explain, Bai Lixia clapped her hands together, making a crisp sound, and looked at Lin En, whose expression remained unchanged, with a delighted expression:

"Oh dear, it seems I guessed right!"

She opened her narrowed eyes, staring intently at Lynn with a burning, inquisitive gaze:

"Otto, my friend~"

“From the first time we met, I felt something was off. Why would you deliberately pretend to be someone you dislike?”

"Why do I sense the presence of two magical girls on you?"

Why did you have the courage to confront that strange person in this incident?

"Then there's only one answer, Otto,"

"You really are special. You knew the true identities of the magical girls from the very beginning. You know everything."

Wow, she was right!

Ling Yuwei swallowed hard and looked at Lin En nervously.

Although she didn't directly reveal Lynn's villainous identity, Kim Soo managed to expose Lynn's secret through deduction alone.

Now, Bai Lixia's purpose is so obvious that she's practically revealing Lin En's ability to conceal his true intentions.

So much so that even though she had already decided to help Lynn conceal his identity, the girl was completely unable to speak and could only look at Lynn anxiously, hoping that he had a plan to break the deadlock.

Under the gazes of the two girls, each with their own distinct feelings, Lynn sighed and rubbed her temples, seemingly troubled, as if she felt helpless at being seen through.

"Okay, I admit it, I do know about the magical girls' special identities. As for the reason, since you want to know, I'll tell you."

His tone carried a hint of compromise.

The next instant, a very obvious magical energy suddenly emanated from his body. Bai Lixia's pupils trembled slightly, but she did not move. However, the iridescent magic stone, which resembled a golden brooch, flashed almost imperceptibly, as if it was ready to transform.

Ling Yuwei's eyes widened involuntarily, and her hand instinctively reached for the iridescent crystal flower in her pocket.

No, are you not even going to act anymore?

Should we do it here?

If things get heated, who should I help?

Just as the two magical girls were so tense that their bodies were stiff, their muscles rigid, and they held their breath, as if they were about to transform at any moment, Lynn suddenly flipped his hand, and then, as if by magic... an apple appeared out of thin air in his hand.

"Actually, I am a psionicist."

"As if he had made up his mind," Lynn said.

"Huh?" x2

The two magical girls, who had always been at odds, surprisingly showed the same confusion.

Fortunately, Lynn had no intention of keeping everyone in suspense.

"You can think of psionicists as ordinary people who have awakened superpowers, but compared to you magical girls, they are far inferior in every aspect. At least, I am completely incapable of fighting monsters."

As Lynn spoke, she put the apple away in her storage space and then put it out again.

"This is my psychic ability: storage void."

"Could you try putting this away?"

Bai Lixia pulled out a gold needle, about the length of a finger and the thickness of a toothpick, from somewhere and handed it to Lin En.

"can."

Lynn nodded, put away the golden needles, and then released them again. The other party's smile immediately disappeared, revealing a slight surprise.

Bai Lixia frowned slightly as she carefully sensed the movements of the chess master.

Without a doubt, those were golden needles generated by Bai Lixia's abilities. Therefore, there was a special connection between them, allowing Bai Lixia to control the golden needles to attack or transform them into golden threads at any time.

But just now, when Lin En put her into his storage space, Bai Lixia did sense that the golden needles, which would always exist in her consciousness no matter what happened, had suddenly lost contact with her.

This proves that Lynn did not hide the gold needles using any fake magic tricks or techniques, but actually hid them in this space.

Throughout this process, Bai Lixia kept a close eye on Lin En to make sure that he hadn't used any magical artifacts to achieve the effect.

In other words, everything he said is true!

Is he really... a psionicist with spatial abilities?!

Looking at Bai Lixia, who was starting to think for the first time because of an unexpected situation, she pursed her lips slightly, her eyes flashing with calculation and consideration. Lin En smiled slightly, the corners of her mouth curving into a barely perceptible arc.

Hehe, it seems I'm still a cut above the rest.

The possibility of being exposed is a classic weakness for villains, and Lynn has been working hard to prevent this from happening.

The agreement reached with Eileen, and Plan B with Xiao Kui, were both to prevent their identities from being exposed, or to minimize the risks if they were exposed.

Ever since she learned that Jin Xiu had her eye on her, Lin En understood that with Jin Xiu's abilities, inquisitive nature, and background, her biggest weakness was definitely Jin Xiu.

After all, Jin Xiu, or rather Bai Lixia, not only has the ability to find out her true identity, but also the fighting power to fight against her current self.

Now that he has confirmed that he is being targeted, even with Eileen acting as a mole, it will be difficult for Lynn to escape unscathed. And what is happening now proves that Lynn's worries are not unfounded.

Therefore, Lynn had already begun to make countermeasures against Bai Lixia's targeting.

To put it bluntly, the biggest problem that has drawn Bai Lixia's attention to Lynn is that she can't explain that she knows the identities of the two magical girls, and that she deliberately distanced herself from Bai Lixia at the beginning.

However, after accidentally discovering the system's [storage bug] last time, this problem no longer exists.

Lynn had a perfect excuse to cover up her special nature.

As a "player," his solution to the problem still lies in the original game's setting.

"Psionicist" is an additional content added to a certain DLC of "Natsuiro" to enhance the story and to fill in some plot holes that could never be resolved.

It's said that some people with special constitutions gained some weak superpowers because they were affected by radiation when a meteor passed by Earth. They could activate things like "stopping time for two seconds" or "growing parts of their body." Compared to magical girls and monsters, these are quite harmless and very humorous superpowers. They are almost meaningless except for filling in the plot, and it is completely impossible to expect psionicists to have a superpower war.

But at this point, this humorous setup became Lynn's best help in clearing his name.

Because, whether in the DLC world or the base world, a person cannot have two or more different systems of supernatural abilities; this is common sense in the supernatural world.

Ling Yuwei, as the magical girl Irene, might not know this rule, but Jin Xiu, a veteran magical girl, certainly does.

So, that's her weakness.

Seniority and experience are excellent tools in most cases, but in some cases, they can become reins that restrict one's thinking.

By using this identity as a spatial psychic, Lynn was able to achieve a perfect and sacred separation between himself and his villainous identity as the "Hypnotist."

You wouldn't believe it, would you, Bai Lixia, or rather, magical girl Jin Xiu?

Seemingly aggressive, with every step I take being controlled by you, but actually...

You're the one who fell into the trap!

Chapter 76: It's a real shame, but I will never fall in love with you (8.5k)

"You say you're a psychic, but that only means your identity is special. It still doesn't explain your relationship with the magical girls, does it?"

Bai Lixia smiled and asked again.

Clearly, her logic was very clear. Although Lynn's answer was indeed unexpected, Bai Lixia was not easily swayed by Lynn's identity as a psionicist.

However, Lynn smiled inwardly.

I knew you were going to ask that.

Faced with Bai Lixia's question, he answered without changing his expression:

"Of course, and it's very important."

He paused,

"Because my childhood friend is a magical girl."

"Childhood sweetheart?"

Upon hearing his words, a cryptic glint flashed in Bai Lixia's eyes. She then turned to look at Ling Yuwei, who seemed even more puzzled than she was.

"It's not Yuwei,"

Lynn corrected,

"It's someone else, someone you've met before."

Immediately, another lively pink magical girl, Daisy, appeared in Bai Lixia's mind.

And so, all that remained in the ward was Lynn's steady narration. Through Lynn's words, the two magical girls heard a story completely different from what they had imagined and understood.

It's not about the mainstream themes of this world, magical girls or monsters, but about a third party, a weak psychic, who silently protects magical girls with his own power.

According to Lynn, he awakened to be a psionicist very early on and mastered his abilities.

However, because of her humor and lack of ostentation, Lynn knew that she was insignificant compared to the truly powerful beings in this world, so she did not make a big fuss about it. Instead, she kept it to herself and planned to live a low-key life.

Until one day, a pink glow suddenly appeared above the head of the neighbor's younger sister, who was his childhood sweetheart.

After ruling out the possibility that it was some subspace vendor watching, just as Lynn was about to ask if the other person was also a psychic, she accidentally discovered that the other person was a magical girl.

Because in this world, the battle between magical girls and monsters didn't begin with the appearance of the protagonists; it had existed all along.

People have always speculated about the reasons for the birth of magical girls, and most people like magical girls very much, and there have even been many related merchandise and support groups.

But no one can calmly face the discovery that their childhood friend is a magical girl.

You must understand, the other person is not like me, an insignificant psychic with no special abilities, but a magical girl who has to constantly participate in battles and fight against evil forces.

After much deliberation, Lynn did not choose to tell Aoi that he was a psychic, nor did he expose Aoi's magical girl identity. Instead, he chose to remain quietly behind the scenes, investigating matters related to magical girls while using his abilities to help her conceal her identity and handle some cleanup work, thus becoming a psychic who secretly helped the magical girl Daisy.

As for the reason for contacting Irene, according to Lynn, it was simply to learn more about magical girls.

"I see."

Upon hearing Lynn's explanation, Bai Lixia's first reaction was surprisingly not to continue doubting him; she even nodded in understanding.

Then he said:

"But may I ask, why are you hiding the fact that you've been secretly helping Daisy? If she knew what you've done, she would definitely be very touched, wouldn't she?"

"Because there's no need for that. Given Xiao Kui's personality, she'll definitely have extra worries about me after she finds out what I've done. In serious cases, it could even lead to her identity being exposed. My judgment is that it's more beneficial for both of us to temporarily conceal my identity."

Lynn said confidently, his gaze honest.

He was not intimidated by Bai Lixia's doubts.
