Chapter 5: I’ve Been Buffed! Time to Counterattack!

“Sister, are you really going to do this to me?”

Su Yuewei put on a pitiful look, staring at the train attendant approaching her, her voice soft and babyish.

“Of course! You know how thrilled I was when I saw your big sister pull out a weak-willed ticket? If I can have you…”

The attendant’s hands shot out, trembling with excitement. That pitiful look from Su Yuewei was exactly what she’d dreamed of!

Even if it meant going to prison, she’d prove she was a dominant big sister, not some weakling who got pushed around!

Hoo~ Ah!

She could smell it! The sweet, soft, weak-willed aura radiating from Su Yuewei!

Thud!

Just as she lunged, a pale blue magical hand grabbed her and flung her toward the food cart.

Crash!

The attendant slammed into the cart, knocking over meal boxes, food spilling onto her short skirt, and a paper cup of soda drenching her head.

Elumeng snorted coldly. She’d already sent the incident to the Weak-Willed Protection Agency.

The agency was an official organization in this world, dedicated to protecting weak-willed girls, curbing big sisters’ behaviors, and preventing too many weak-willed girls from falling into the hands of a few.

Girls like this attendant, who attacked weak-willed girls without restraint, faced at least three years in prison!

“It’s a sting! You’re not a weak-willed girl! You’re a bait girl, luring big sisters into traps!”

The attendant wiped her soaked hair, glaring at Su Yuewei hiding behind Elumeng.

Su Yuewei peeked out from behind Elumeng’s wings. A sting? Really?

She hadn’t asked for money or actively tempted her! The attendant had followed her, cornered her, and attacked!

Leaning against the cart, the attendant’s hand fumbled underneath, pulling out a pale pink syringe and jabbing it into her neck.

“Ugh…”

Sharp goat horns sprouted from her head, and a black heart-shaped tail grew behind her. She felt empowered! She could take on three weak-willed girls at once!

Now, she was terrifyingly dominant!

“Demon form? Wasn’t that destroyed ages ago?”

Elumeng eyed the transformed attendant curiously.

Her tail, infused with magic, sliced through the cart behind her like a razor.

The attendant smirked at the shredded cart.

With this power, she’d conquer the world, claiming all weak-willed girls as her treasures!

Ding!

She charged at Elumeng and Su Yuewei, infusing magic into her fist, swinging at them.

Being a train attendant was a job meant for weak-willed girls who could sweet-talk big sisters, so she was just a weak-willed girl dreaming of dominance.

No matter how much she powered up, she hadn’t studied dominant magic. She could only rely on magically enhanced physical strength to fight Elumeng.

But Elumeng was a true big sister, trained in dominant magic.

A golden shield flared up, encasing her and Su Yuewei.

The demonized attendant’s attacks clanged uselessly against the shield, making no dent.

“A real big sister protects her little cutie perfectly.”

Elumeng sighed, extending her hand. A golden thread of condensed light instantly bound the demon girl into a tightly wrapped bundle.

“So cool…”

Su Yuewei stared at the fallen demon girl, struggling futilely against the magical golden threads—though the binding style was a bit… questionable.

“These potions…”

Elumeng dispelled the shield and approached the sliced cart, lifting the tattered cloth to reveal more pale pink syringes, identical to the one the attendant used.

She pocketed a few for study, then turned to the demon girl.

A pink glow pulsed from Elumeng’s palm.

“Weakling, listen up. From now on, I’m your master.”

Elumeng stood with hands on hips, interrogating the bound demon girl with authority.

“Master~ Mmm~”

The demon girl tried to inch closer to Elumeng, but before she could, Su Yuewei kicked her away.

Huh… Could it be? Does my little cutie care about me?

Elumeng glanced at the scene, secretly delighted. Su Yuewei was slowly taking on her colors!

At this rate, it wouldn’t be long before Su Yuewei became her exclusive little cutie!

“That counts as an item, right? Kicking a ball with Sister Elumeng.”

Su Yuewei pulled out her crumpled interest list, pointing to the task about kicking a ball.

The list just said “ball”—it didn’t specify what kind. Who’s to say a demon girl can’t be a ball?

“Uh… sure! Of course it counts!”

Elumeng frowned, her tone a bit miffed, but she let Su Yuewei cross it off.

Weird. Didn’t she cast the Weak-Willed Intellect Suppression spell? How did Su Yuewei spot a loophole in the interest list so fast?

Could it be… Su Yuewei’s emotional intelligence usually dominated her regular intelligence?

And the spell, by lowering her emotional smarts, let her logical brain take over?

If that’s the case, Elumeng decided to ditch the spell. She preferred a silly Su Yuewei.

“Stay here. Now tell me, what are these, and where did you get them?”

As Elumeng spoke, the demon girl, who’d tried rolling back, froze and spilled everything she knew.

The potions came from the Hug-Save Society, called Weak-Willed Salvation Potions. Injecting them into a weak-willed girl could turn her into a big sister capable of overpowering others.

Someone had hired her to distribute the potions to passengers on the train, paying five hundred witch gold per job. Who’d say no to extra cash?

Her regular job paid five thousand witch gold a month, but that wasn’t nearly enough to become a big sister and marry a cute weak-willed girl.

Once, in a restroom, she saw a weak-willed girl inject a potion and turn the tables on her big sister. That’s when she learned what the potions did.

“They’re our salvation! Master! Are weak-willed girls doomed to be pinned down forever?”
