Chapter 28: The Supreme Technique of the Sun Loli Goddess
Why a tablet?
This is just too bizarre!
In stories, divine techniques are always recorded in some tattered old scrolls—that’s what gives them the feel of a secret manual.
……
But after a moment of thought, Lonis quickly came to terms with it.
Because in this world, tablets didn’t even exist. Even for Elus, a tablet would be considered an antique!
So, recording the technique on a tablet actually gave it a certain “vintage” charm.
……
Lonis promptly found a secluded corner and solemnly entered the password.
But the sight that greeted her left her stunned once more…
Because the screen was filled with a mess of random apps.
A few of them Lonis even vaguely recognized—like the polar bear with a red scarf, the tengu howling at the sky, and the one that seemed capable of generating electricity (pilili).
Of course, even if these apps could be launched, they were completely unusable… The ship had no signal, and Lonis didn’t know the account passwords set by the previous owner.
……
So, without dwelling on it, Lonis tapped directly on the app labeled “Sun Loli Goddess Technique.”
It looked suspiciously like some scam software, but since it was supposedly authored by the Sun Loli Goddess, it had to be something extraordinary, right?
……
That was what Lonis thought—until the first line that appeared on the screen read:
**”To master this technique, one must first castrate oneself.”**
……
“Huh? Castrate?!”
Lonis shuddered instinctively, but of course, there was nothing left to castrate.
Under her skirt was nothing but empty space, save for the striped panties wrapped in white stockings… Cute as they were, Lonis was starkly reminded of reality: she was no longer a boy.
“Wuwu! What kind of absurd prerequisite is this?! Is this some kind of demonic cultivation technique that drives people mad?!”
Lonis gulped and instinctively tapped the screen again.
But then, the following text appeared:
**”If you don’t castrate yourself, cross-dressing is also acceptable. However, the efficacy will drop by 70%, with a risk of qi deviation~ (*^▽^*)”**
……
“What does ‘cross-dressing is also acceptable’ even mean?! And what’s with that emoticon at the end?! Does qi deviation sound like a good thing to you?!”
Lonis couldn’t shake the feeling that she’d been scammed.
But to prove herself to Elus, she clenched her teeth and kept reading.
And what followed was…
……
“Hehe~~~ Congratulations on passing the preliminary trial! Now, you can join me in learning the supreme technique~~”
Suddenly, an incredibly adorable golden-haired loli popped up on the screen.
She had huge eyes and an oversized head, and though her petite frame stood only about 1.2 meters tall… she was unbearably cute. She looked like a giant, dumb-looking plushie, the kind you just wanted to hug tightly.
(Is this… the Sun Loli Goddess? She’s way too cute!)
……
Lonis blinked. The Sun Loli Goddess’s appearance was nothing like what she had imagined. With such a tiny body, who could she possibly defeat? If the demons saw her on the battlefield, they’d probably laugh themselves to death.
But then again, given her own current state, Lonis wasn’t in a position to judge. She suppressed her skepticism and kept reading.
……
“This technique is divided into four stages, which must be learned step by step… Of course, if you don’t understand how magic power circulates at all, that’s fine too. Just tap the background info on the side.”
“Let’s give that a click…”
……
Though Lonis had some foundational knowledge of magic, she tapped the background info anyway to avoid missing anything.
The tablet then provided a detailed explanation of the technique’s principles… which aligned closely with what was taught in basic magical theory classes.
The amount of magic power a human could wield depended on the number of Blue Cells (also known as magic cells) in their body.
Blue Cells were a gift bestowed upon humans in this epoch—an absolute factor capable of influencing space and even the rules of the world itself.
This was why Cécile could perform long-range teleportation, why Elus could take on a girl’s form, and why, according to Isumi, the use of Hong Yuan Weapons was deeply tied to the magic cells within a person’s body.
The Sun Loli Goddess’s technique worked by employing a series of methods to mobilize and stimulate the Blue Cells within oneself, achieving rapid activation and division in a short time.
……
For the muggles of the previous epoch, grasping the basic concept of magic power would’ve taken months… Fortunately, Lonis had already attended classes at C. Academy and had a solid foundation.
Moreover, Lonis’s body contained far more magic cells than the average person. They had just never been activated or utilized, which was why she seemed so weak—only capable of supplying magic power to Elus.
After reviewing this section, Lonis tapped to proceed.
……
“Congratulations~ You’ve completed the preparatory phase! Now, you can learn the actual technique with me~~”
The adorable loli appeared again. Though her eyes sparkled brightly, Lonis couldn’t shake the feeling that this goddess was a bit of an airhead.
“Next, I’ll explain the core principles of the technique. Humans are animals that transcend animals—retaining the impulses of primal creatures while also possessing the rationality and logic unique to silicon-based lifeforms. Thus, to attain greater power, we must abandon our instincts while simultaneously embracing them.”
“Abandon instincts… and embrace them?”
Lonis blinked in confusion. At this point, she was already starting to get lost.
But then, the golden-haired loli did something Lonis never saw coming—she dropped to all fours and started walking like an animal!
“Meow~ Mew mew~~”
She meowed as she moved, crawling onto the sofa one moment, curling up on a computer case the next, then crouching by a bowl to nibble on fish snacks before playfully winding around the ankles of a silver-haired girl.
She was so lifelike, it was as if she had truly become a kitten!
After this performance, the loli returned to the camera and cheerfully declared: “That’s how it’s done! To activate your magic cells, the first step is to lose yourself—but since that’s difficult, I recommend imagining yourself as a small animal.”
“Uh… a small animal?”
“Don’t resist it. Don’t think about how a human would act—immerse yourself completely in the behavior of the animal. Only then can you re-examine your instincts. And that, my dear, is how you officially begin mastering the Sun Loli Goddess Technique.”
……
Lonis sat on the floor, utterly dumbfounded.
No wonder this technique had nearly been lost to time…
No wonder Senior Isumi had warned her that the cultivation process might be incredibly difficult…
This first step alone was something no ordinary person could accomplish!!!
Pretending to be an animal? How was that even possible?! This was even harder than the “Sunflower Manual”!!!
……
But…
As challenging as it was, Lonis had to admit the Sun Loli Goddess’s words made sense.
After all, martial arts had techniques like the Praying Mantis Fist and the Crane Style, both of which mimicked the instincts of animals in nature… If she wanted to help Elus, this was the only way forward.
So then…
“How exactly does one self-hypnotize? Does the manual say? Hmm… It seems like deep breathing comes first…”
