Just as Wuyan had initially imagined, yet not quite the same...
What was the same was that the two girls got along exceptionally well. After introducing each other, they left Wuyan aside and took over his bed, chatting and laughing. They even shared a room at night, appearing closer than blood sisters to outsiders, and to Wuyan, they seemed to be heading towards a yuri relationship...
What was different was the reason they got along so well. It wasn't because they shared the same interests, as Wuyan had initially thought, but because they were of the same model, which made Wuyan inwardly cry out in frustration.
Since summoning Misaka used up 70,000 summon points, Wuyan now had only 11,000 points left. There were cheaper girls, but Wuyan had already decided on the next character to summon, so now was the time to save money.
Of course, the 70,000 summon points weren't spent in vain. At first, due to the initial excitement of meeting Misaka, Wuyan didn't pay attention to her level. But when he did...
Character: Misaka Mikoto
Ability: Electromaster (Lv5)
Strength: C
Endurance: C
Agility: B
Spirit: A
Equipment: None
Level: 68
This character status appeared in Wuyan's system under the 'Status' option, below his own status.
When Wuyan saw the level written in Misaka's character status, he remained in a clicking position for a long time.
Level 68! Seventh Rank!
Truly, she lived up to her reputation as one of the top espers in a world full of magic and superpowers. Even if she wasn't at the highest level of combat power in the world of *A Certain Scientific Railgun*, as the third of the only seven Level 5 espers, Misaka's strength was undoubtedly second only to the highest combat power in that world!
Before this, the highest level Wuyan had seen was 60, which was Feifei's level.
And now, it would be Misaka's.
With Misaka, Wuyan wasn't sure if they would find the Heavenly Palace Jade on this trip, but safety was definitely guaranteed!
...
In a remote area in the south, there was a cliff...
No one knew how high the cliff was, and no one had ever tried to find out. This place was uninhabited, and no one would ever want to come here. However, today, a helicopter suddenly flew to the top of the cliff.
The helicopter flew straight down the cliff, causing a fierce howling wind. After about two or three minutes, it landed on a not very noticeable protruding rock shelf at the edge of the cliff.
As the helicopter's engine shut off, the door was opened by a hand, and five people came out: one man, three women, and a driver.
The seal of the Eguchi family was not at the Eguchi residence but at the edge of this cliff. To prevent anyone from accidentally entering the seal location and causing irreparable consequences, the Eguchi family had spent a great deal of resources to set up the seal here.
Since the unfortunate incident involving the Eguchi family head, this place had been completely off-limits. Because it was a cliff, no one would come here, so this cliff had not seen a human for at least a hundred years.
Not to mention the top of the cliff, no one had even come to this protruding rock shelf at the edge of the cliff.
"Is this the entrance to the seal?" Wuyan looked up at the rock shelf, where there was a large cave entrance. The entrance glowed with a faint light that was invisible unless you got close.
"Yes, inside the cave and on the entrance, there are seals set up by our Eguchi ancestors. All captured demons are thrown into the cave and imprisoned there."
Beside him, Eguchi's mother casually replied, then continued to look at Misaka.
Suddenly, a little girl appeared and was going to enter the seal with Wuyan to find the Heavenly Palace Jade. How could Eguchi's mother not be interested? Moreover, knowing how dangerous it was inside, Wuyan wouldn't have let a little girl go in to die.
So, the only explanation was that this little girl had some strength!
I wonder how she compares to Eguchi...
Having a little girl around the same age as her daughter with some mysterious power, Eguchi's mother couldn't help but compare Misaka to Eguchi.
However, what she didn't know was that Eguchi couldn't compare to Misaka. After all, they came from different worlds. In terms of talent, one was born with the spiritual power to rival veteran exorcists, while the other had a Level 5 esper ability. Their talents were not that different.
However, different worlds led to completely different developments and strengths. *Hayate the Combat Butler* was a world with little mysticism, while *A Certain Scientific Railgun* had magic, espers, angels, and saints, making it one of the most mystical worlds Wuyan knew. Naturally, it was far superior to *Hayate the Combat Butler*.
Mysticism in a higher mystical world was incomparable to that in a lower mystical world!
Misaka, who grew up in a higher mystical world, was naturally much stronger than Eguchi, who grew up in a lower mystical world!
At this moment, Wuyan was staring at the cave entrance. Apart from the faintly glowing light, it looked like any other cave. However, the continuous warnings from the system almost made Wuyan faint.
The system's warning only sounded when the chances of winning a battle were less than ten percent, like when Wuyan, at level 0, fought a level 10 wind snake when he first arrived.
Wuyan heard the warning most often in the Giant Beast Forest, where it helped him avoid countless impossible battles.
Now, the system's warning sounded again, and it was no less than ten times, meaning there were at least ten demons inside the cave that Wuyan had less than a ten percent chance of defeating!
Tragically, Wuyan couldn't avoid it and had to go in...
Of course, if Misaka were to take action, it shouldn't be a problem, but it was up to Wuyan to decide...
Wuyan turned around. "Then, Mrs. Eguchi, we'll go in first!"
Eguchi's mother's eyes narrowed, and she withdrew her gaze from Misaka. She took out an old talisman from her pocket and handed it to Wuyan. "Be careful. The food we brought is only enough for a week. If you don't come out within a week..."
"Then you don't have to wait for us!" Wuyan smiled, took the talisman, and looked at Misaka.
"Are you ready, Misaka?"
"Um..." Misaka pushed a limp object on her and shook her head helplessly. "We might have to wait a bit..."
"...I told you not to come, but you insisted..." Wuyan and Misaka exchanged glances, and Wuyan spoke to the limp object.
Perhaps awakened by Misaka's actions or Wuyan's words, the object struggled to stand up, its face still pale and lips white, eyes darting around, making it look very uncomfortable.
"I said... I'm coming... You can't leave me behind..." Chrysanthemum tried to smile but failed, her hand still on Misaka, using all her strength to support herself.
"Knowing you have acrophobia, why did you insist on coming? Isn't this just asking for trouble?" Wuyan could only laugh bitterly at Chrysanthemum's stubbornness.
Everyone knows the president has acrophobia...
"Ha... It's nothing... Let's... go..." Chrysanthemum's eyelids were almost closed, but she still spoke to Wuyan, clearly unwilling to give up.
Eguchi's mother ignored Chrysanthemum's fear, finding it amusing to see her in such a state, and just smiled at her.
"Alright... Let's... go..." Chrysanthemum said, supporting herself on Misaka to prevent herself from collapsing, as they were still at a high place, with a cliff below...
Sighing, Wuyan raised his hand with the talisman toward the cave entrance...
The light at the cave entrance gradually brightened, and the talisman in Wuyan's hand emitted visible ripples. When the ripples met the light, a gap appeared in the cave entrance, as if it had been pierced. The gap widened until it could accommodate a person, and then the ripples stopped.
Seeing this, Wuyan smiled, put the talisman in his spatial ring, and said to Misaka, "Let's go, Misaka. Please take care of Chrysanthemum."
"I can do it..." The weak voice was ignored by both of them. Wuyan waved to Eguchi's mother, and the two, along with the limp object, entered the cave.
"Be careful..." Eguchi's mother called out, but Wuyan just waved back.
After the three entered the cave, the light at the entrance slowly closed, dimming and returning to its original state.
The cave entrance was huge, and the inside was even larger. Wuyan and the others were now walking in a massive tunnel, which grew wider the further they went. Eventually, the walls on either side were nearly fifty meters away from them.
As they walked through the increasingly wide tunnel, the only sound was their footsteps. Misaka couldn't help but ask, "Weren't there supposed to be a lot of demons? Where are they?"
Turning around, Wuyan saw Misaka's calm face, but he noticed the sweat on her forehead.
Although Wuyan was also puzzled, according to Eguchi's mother, this place should have accumulated many powerful demons over the years. They had been walking for nearly ten minutes and hadn't seen a single demon, but this didn't stop Wuyan from teasing Misaka.
Smirking, Wuyan looked at the composed Misaka and said, "If you're scared, just say so, Misaka. I won't laugh at you."
Misaka's steps paused, and she glared at Wuyan, biting her lip. "I... I'm not scared. If anything comes out, I'll electrocute it until it's black as charcoal!"
As if to prove her point, sparks appeared on Misaka's forehead, and blue arcs of electricity surrounded her, providing some light in the dim cave.
Unfortunately, Misaka forgot that she wasn't alone...
"Ah!" Chrysanthemum, who was on Misaka's back, was jolted by the electricity, making her jump despite her earlier lethargy.
"Ah... S-Sorry, Chrysanthemum, are you okay?"
Chrysanthemum laughed weakly, panting. "I'm fine. In fact, I feel much better after being electrocuted..."
"Ha..." Misaka laughed nervously.
"..." Wuyan, speechless, chose to ignore it and continued walking. Misaka and Chrysanthemum quickly followed, their hands instinctively holding each other.
Well, the president is also afraid of demons and such...
