"But is this ability also useful against spirits?"
The girls were all curious.
"Yes, I've already tested it with her before. It worked even before the contract, and the effect should be stronger now."
Rosen nodded.
So far, these dependents he had received, purely from the perspective of their qualities and potential, could be said to be quite excellent.
He retracted his previous statement.
Although they were all girls from slice-of-life anime, the skills they awakened were one more absurd than the last.
Not long after.
Kato Megumi finished showering and came out in her school uniform.
She took the paper from Rosen's hand and read it carefully.
"My presence is so weak that it's become one of my skills. I don't know whether I should be happy or sad."
Doesn't this indirectly reflect how incredibly weak her presence is?
"But now your presence can be adjusted on its own. After you actively deactivate it, your presence will skyrocket."
Rosen said teasingly.
"How high?"
"About three or four stories high… Alright, no jokes, it's probably to the extent of being the most dazzling person in a crowd."
She still remembered that Kato Megumi's "inconspicuousness" in the original work was not actually that low.
After a little grooming, she would be able to join the ranks of first-class beauties.
This situation reminded Rosen of the difference between Superman with and without glasses.
It's nothing in an everyday anime, but in this fusion world, it's probably due to the girl's abnormality.
And this abnormality is being overly ordinary.
Despite having a cute face and a good figure, she was labeled "ordinary" in all aspects.
"Then I'll just forget it, I'm more used to my current life."
Kato Megumi really had no desire to stand out from the crowd.
"I think if you dress up a little, Xiao Hui, you'll look much better than you do now."
Rosen said.
"Dress up?"
The girl kept this sentence in her heart.
She didn't want to change no matter what others said, but since Rosen said so, should she try to change?
A woman adorns herself for her admirer.
Kato Megumi's current thoughts were consistent with the meaning of this phrase.
Just as the girl was about to go back and slowly change, she heard the calls of other girls beside her.
"Then let's give Kato Megumi a makeover together!"
Yurikawa Hana was the first to raise her hand.
Yotsuya Miko also echoed, "Kato-san has such a good foundation, it would be a shame not to dress her up properly."
Previously, Yotsuya Miko was exhausted from dealing with spirits and had no time to dress up, becoming an outcast in her class.
However, after becoming Rosen's subordinate, her strength grew, and no longer needing to fear spirits, she also did some simple grooming, gradually becoming the focus of attention in their class along with Yurikawa Hana.
"I also brought some makeup, let's try it now."
After Zhoufang Youxi finished speaking, she had Jun Dao Ling Nai take out a set of expensive cosmetics.
Kato Megumi was forcibly pulled by them to sit in front of the dressing mirror.
However, after Yurikawa Hana and Youxi looked at Kato Megumi's cheeks, which no longer had any pores or dullness, they suddenly felt that the cosmetics in their hands seemed useless.
"We can only start with the styling!"
Zhoufang Youxi changed her mind.
And so.
Kato Megumi was thus tormented by the three of them throughout the entire lunch break.
But the results were good.
After changing out of her ordinary school uniform, Kato Megumi was changed into a loose knit cardigan with a solid-colored dress underneath.
The hem swayed gently with her steps, like she was wrapped in a soft cloud, and she wore a light camel-colored beret on her head, the shadow cast by the brim making her already small face even more delicate.
"Lord Rosen, how is it?!"
The three of them showed Rosen their results.
"Not bad, much better than before."
Rosen's praise did not change Kato Megumi's expression at all, but the fleeting joy in her eyes was caught by Rosen.
However, before returning to the classroom, Kato Megumi still requested to return to her original appearance.
The girls couldn't argue with her, so they had Kato Megumi change back into her school uniform.
Back in the classroom.
During the afternoon class, Rosen was still lost in thought.
And after school.
Yotsuya Miko and Yurikawa Hana came over immediately.
The four of them had already agreed to use the time after school to hunt spirits and level up together, and incidentally, the three veterans could guide Kato Megumi, the newcomer.
"Speaking of veterans, I only became Lord Rosen's subordinate last weekend."
Zhoufang Youxi said with great emotion.
It had only been a few days, and she had already become a senior.
"By the way, Ayano, you can go back and rest now, after all, you can't help us with what we're going to do."
Zhoufang Youxi said.
"I'll go back by myself tonight."
Upon hearing this, Jun Dao Ling Nai nodded, then picked up her schoolbag and left the school.
Yotsuya Miko watched her retreating figure.
She said with some reluctance, "Is doing this a bit too cruel?"
"Actually, I don't want to, but what we're going to do next is obviously more dangerous, if we arbitrarily drag Ayano, who is still an ordinary person, into it, it will put her in a very dangerous situation, and..."
Zhoufang Youxi glanced in the direction Ayano had left.
She had grown up with Ayano since childhood, so it was impossible for her to have no feelings.
Her eyes held a look of hope as she looked at Rosen, but the words caught in her throat.
However, the emotions of a subordinate could not be hidden from Rosen.
As a god, he was well aware of the girls' thoughts, although not to the extent of directly reading their minds, he could perceive the ups and downs of their emotions.
"You want me to also transform Ayano into a subordinate, don't you?"
Rosen smiled.
"Can I?"
Not surprised by Rosen's ability to know her inner thoughts, Zhoufang Youxi's eyes were filled with anticipation.
However, Rosen did not answer directly.
His life tree had not shown a strong reaction until now, which indicated that Jun Dao Ling Nai was temporarily not qualified to be transformed into his subordinate.
But truthfully, if it's not possible innately, then make up for it later.
"Then let's try to make Jun Dao Ling Nai change a bit."
"Is that all it takes?"
Zhoufang Youxi was deep in thought.
If it's just about making Jun Dao Ling Nai change.
Speaking of which... it's quite easy to handle.
