As the Villain, I Have a Persuasion System Chapter 68 : I'm Coming for You with a Galactic Battleship

Hibiscus wasn't clear on how the original storyline developed in its later stages.

But she still felt a trace of resonance. The tragedy flowing through the netizens' words was sothing that had almost actually happened to her. Thinking carefully, she, Jin Ruochu, and Nan Zhiyi still looked human and had decent families—that was already fortunate. Moreover, Jin Yulu hadn't been transferred to the fallen island frontlines... It was heart-stopping.

That was close—a narrow escape.

If her strength hadn't been sufficient and she'd missed the timing to save people, tragedy would have happened just the sa. While feeling fortunate, she should also spur herself on—after all, major events were coming one after another.

While Hibiscus was contemplating, she finally saw soone share content like "World Serpent, Fortune and Misfortune, Small Universe follow-up developnt suggestions."

After waiting so long, finally a useful answer ca.

The girl read through it carefully and firmly rembered the key points. She could selectively guide them afterward. Just as teachers couldn't use force-feeding education, magic developnt emphasized imagination—intelligence only reduced detours and improved cost-effectiveness. So Hibiscus also wouldn't directly ask for all Sands of Ti information. Knowing the general direction was enough—for example, output or damage immunity skills would evolve next.

At the sa ti, comnts like "moved," "tears," "no regrets" gradually disappeared from the comnt interface as everyone began focusing on details.

After all, the luxury team's first collective battle attracted many combat power fans:

【Most skillful episode】

【First move ti stop to save people, then connect with domain closure, domain release and open ti stop again—seamless connection, how do you break it? Can't win so you run? In front of the pink-haired female protagonist, not a single boss can escape, not to ntion there's ti acceleration strong control skills. As long as magic power is sufficient, directly control you to death】

【Jin Ruochu: Hmph, trying to escape】

【Indeed helicopters crashed. Reminds of that man】

【Imperial Flower: I just slept through the whole thing and won lying down】

【Wait, did you all notice that Hyacinth has assembled a team with no dead angles? Simply comprehensive with no weaknesses. Future team fights will definitely be exciting】

【Sands of Ti: Comprehensive output. World Serpent: Tank damage absorption. Fortune and Misfortune: All-around support. Small Universe: Area control】

【chanically speaking, there's so compatibility, but except for Hyacinth, they're almost all newbies now. Basic stats aren't in place—wanting to coordinate is useless. This configuration can only be said to have future potential】

【Urging updates for team battle videos】

【4 series strongest magics are just overpowered strength. Luxury armored car crushes opponents to death】

【The host really listened to previous suggestions, gathering the strongest magic users available at this stage. As long as you sh well and develop team mber relationships, future perfect coordination and sworn brotherhood is equivalent to directly assembling a galactic battleship】

Hibiscus's mouth twitched, unable to help thinking of netizens saying "galactic battleships are ant to collapse"—such boasting wasn't auspicious.

She forcibly steered the topic back to Magical Girl power.

For example, what was the next stage of Regalia?

She clearly felt that once magic power was infused into the hair ornant part, it could make ntal power surge, which was why she could finely slice the huge whale into mince. But the principle was still unknown.

An answer quickly appeared: Theoretically, Regalia couldn't be actively upgraded—it often responded to Origin and magic for strengthening and amplification, just like its third awakening. Hair ornants corresponded to ntal power, naturally making magic power operation more refined. Once two of these three were skillfully mastered—Magic Power Internal Compression, hair ornant amplification, and magic's new stage—one could be called a "Seedling Stage Magical Girl" with comprehensive strength transcending a major tier.

Even within the seedling stage, there were distinctions of strength and weakness. For example, one could thoroughly excavate power at the new tier to make future upper limits higher, at the cost of great difficulty.

The answerer stated directly: "Everyone knows maxing out skill trees is strongest, but you always have to choose main focus and secondary directions. The difference between powerful seedling stage and weak seedling stage lies in whether Regalia is complete... or rather, each future stage's distinctive feature can only choose two of three. Most people give up Regalia developnt."

"Of course, in the very late stage you still have to make up the coursework."

"Many plot fans analyze that the original Hyacinth actually reached the level above withering when she lost to Manjusaka and was about to be imprisoned—she should have completed full Regalia."

Hearing news about herself, Hibiscus's expression darkened. Thinking, I can't be weaker than myself from another tiline, right? Only children make choices—adults want everything. Precisely because it's difficult, one should choose it.

"Please tell ."

"Worthy of being Hyacinth. I, a Salvation Church believer, will offer insignificant knowledge..."

The answer post appeared: The Regalia hair ornant part also had deep-level power. Just as corresponding to Origin could achieve Magic Power Internal Compression, it could manifest telekinesis. Maintaining magic power infusion into hair ornants could achieve effects including but not limited to mind-reading, long-distance telepathy, predicting a few seconds into the future—a complete independent upgrade route.

No wonder so Magical Girls specializing in Regalia were equally formidable. This system was vast and complete, accommodating various developnt approaches.

For example, telekinesis strengthened with Regalia's continued developnt. The original's peak performance could capture cots from beyond the sky, but that was far from the setting's limit—in terms of strength, it was comparable to magic.

Hibiscus's mouth curved into a smile.

Magical Girl power always brought surprises with unlimited potential. Then her next step should be training Regalia hair ornants to reach telekinesis level, then break through magic power tiers. Accumulating strength for explosive growth was the true way—this tiline had sufficient opportunities.

"I understand. So among the three elents of Origin, magic, and Regalia, most of the ti you choose two of three to upgrade, but in the late stage you must consider all three, right?"

【Completely correct】

【Of course, among these, magic has the highest upper limit because it resonates with Magical Girls' most essential inner power—for example, 8 magics corresponding to 8 personality theories】

【Though the original never admitted it, plot fans analyzed that each magic type corresponds to a psychological model...】

Ti Series: Leadership type, Authority figure.

Space Series: Order type, Perfectionist.

Mythology Series: Cautious type, Loyalist.

Elent Series: Freedom type, Enthusiast.

Summoning Series: Cautious type, Achiever.

Domain Series: Leadership type, Investigator.

Skill Series: Freedom type, Individualist.

Causal Series: Order type, Peacemaker.

【Host should treat plot fan analysis as entertainnt. Though 8 personality types match so academic divisions, they're not rigorous. Perhaps the original referenced them but not completely correctly—treat it as a thinking angle. But one thing is certain: broadly speaking, what magic a person possesses corresponds roughly to personality type. This isn't innate but mutual shaping between the two】

【For example, Jin Ruochu tends toward order due to her noble family background, and her troubled experiences made her tolerant and strong—indeed fitting the personality corresponding to causal series】

【Shooting arrows then drawing targets is enough. Anyway, host, rember that combat power's lower limit cos from Origin, upper limit from magic. Though there are special cases going against this, exclude them. If you're training, focus on magic power...】

Thank you so much.

Hibiscus quite admired the fan group called "combat power faction" of "Magical Girl of Light." Though they easily triggered combat power comparisons causing heavy artillery fire, their intentions were good and had once provided her enormous help—like now when combat power faction provided a long string of magic power-related knowledge.

At the sa ti, system notification sounds triggered frequently:

[You received suggestion "Waterfall Training" adopted and reward issued: Origin Comprehension 5]

[You received suggestion "Organize Magical Girl Exercise Notes" reward issued: Teaching Efficiency 8]

[You received suggestion "Devilish Training" reward issued: Basic Attribute Enhancent]

The constantly flashing notifications in her mind ant the system chanism was far more complex than it appeared on the surface. Actually, suggestion extraction was quite flexible—as long as she decided to do sothing, there were rewards. Couldn't she continuously farm stats? Sa principle as sharing status updates—not rich enough but steady streams.

Accept all.

Before teaching others, she had to understand herself. Having made the commitnt to train everyone, Hibiscus naturally had to clarify various principles. At this mont, she looked like a curious student carefully taking notes.

anwhile, the comnt section's style gradually went astray as she stopped controlling it:

【Sa tiline, which is stronger—original Hyacinth or simulated Hyacinth】

【Host will definitely instant-kill big villains】

【Hard to say. Battles between ti magics are always hard to determine. Plus they're the rarest—even the original didn't have many reference cases. Should use a developntal perspective. Simulated Hyacinth has unlimited future potential, perhaps able to break limits】

【Continuing like this, the Fairy King might not keep the theoretical combat power first throne. But she also didn't show full strength in the original, still has potential for more layers】

【I only know simulated line Dandelion is already completely healthy, happy family, developed early—super high upper limit】

【Plus post-story if version Dandelion "I will continue practicing Hibiscus's path" overloading domain magic to create false universe—removing psychological trauma weakness would be absolutely overpowered】

【New T0 tier mber】

【Better than finale self-exiled beyond the galaxy Calamity Witch Manjusaka】

Hibiscus quickly beca alert. Could the pink-haired protagonist beco even stronger? This needed attention—she had to maintain advantage over the original world line's big boss.

She paid attention to a few comnts before realizing it was a false alarm.

In the original's final battle, Jin Ruochu converted her lifeti fortune into misfortune to defeat the Ti Priestess's defense, paying the price of giving up all her luck for the rest of her life. Though victorious, she was too drained of Origin to continue fighting and simply conceded. The cost was that Manjusaka, who saved the world, would be accompanied by disasters for the rest of her life—24 hours a day when even the Chicxulub asteroid would be a minor incident. She beca a walking civilization extinction event, so Jin Ruochu, who feared loneliness most, had to spend the rest of her life alone.

Really tragic enough.

Hibiscus couldn't help cursing the original work a few tis—thanks for designing a world where no one was happy.

【Boring, ti to discuss the "Phantom God" level above T0. I now nominate: the plot fans' analyzed Hyacinth above the Withering stage, please welco "Enlightened at Dragon Field Ti Priestess"】

【I nominate Manjusaka who returned from training beyond the galaxy】

【Hyacinth fans stop fantasizing, breakthrough limits don't exist at all, that battle was indisputable】

【Who the hell asked you, jumping around like that】

【6】

【Should replay it all over again】

Seeing this, Hibiscus closed the Q&A page with a thought. Forget about future garbage information—besides, she didn't want to be overly spoiled by a few discussions. The further the tiline, the more tiring it beca, probably related to knowledge poison burden. Even the system had to be used carefully.

After closing the system and organizing her notes, the girl stretched and walked into the bedroom, re-inserting the staff into the potted plant to nurture it, then flopped onto bed for a good sleep.

Over the next two days, Hibiscus devoted herself entirely to training Magical Girl power, combining suggestions to explore a universally applicable plan.

The process went very smoothly, with occasional system notifications or exchanges with netizens.

As the first Magical Girl in the new world line's history to establish training thods, she was naturally suited for the task. No one else could experint with different approaches like Hibiscus—for example, using magic power to attack herself to train physical enhancent, challenging 30-minute breath-holding, testing extre survival limits in vacuum... It seed like performance art but was indeed effective. Even she felt her body rapidly adapting to Magical Girl power, enough for the juniors of the previous stage.

Day 3.

Clear sky and blazing sun, 7:50 AM in front of Five-Color Narcissus Trading Company building.

Hibiscus had long developed a lifestyle without sleep, having just finished university registration and magic power training. She leisurely strolled here at 5 AM, treating it as preparation for the upcoming team's first official assembly.

She had even specially chosen a suit for today—white shirt with brown vest to modify her figure, sapphire blue jacket with tie, long pants below giving a capable temperant. Plus short heels bringing her already magic-enhanced height to 178cm level, passersby even exclaid about her model figure.

Unexpectedly, she wasn't the first to arrive.

Nan Zhiyi in her usual black won's business suit was waiting at the door. Glancing at her watch and looking up to see Hibiscus, she imdiately smiled and greeted her.

Though the appointed ti was 8 o'clock, the two had tacitly arrived early, making arriving employees sowhat nervous, wondering if today the young chairman and CEO were checking attendance?

After observation, employees found the two had no such hobby and simply ignored them—they should be waiting for clients.

When the clock hand pointed to 7:59:59, a graceful figure erged from the dark alley across the street.

Jin Yulu reported punctually.

She wore a baseball cap pressing down her black shoulder-length hair, sunglasses covering half her face, full camouflage outfit with a windbreaker and a bulging backpack. This outfit wasn't bulky at all but conveyed an arrow-ready-to-fly temperant, as if she could pull out an AK47 anyti to sweep pedestrians, guaranteed accurate marksmanship. Even if security forces ca, she could probably hold out for quite a while...

Jin Yulu removed her sunglasses, revealing slightly furrowed brows: "You seem to be imagining strange things?"

"Did you really need to hide until eting ti?" Nan Zhiyi was puzzled by her new partner's personality.

"Police academy instructors once said: every assembly requires advance reconnaissance. Arriving early or late isn't as good as arriving on ti—you must grasp initiative while knowing yourself and your enemy."

"..."

Hibiscus broke the awkwardness: "Anyway, we've assembled three people. Let say good morning to everyone first. Though Jin Ruochu is already late, she definitely won't be absent—we can be sure of that."

Just as she spoke, a red Rolls-Royce crashed into the lamppost in front of the company with a clang. Looking closely, there were other scrapes—it must have been bumping along the whole way.

"The job gift my dad just gave !"

Jin Ruochu let out a wail.

Hibiscus quickly stepped forward to comfort the pink-haired protagonist, imdiately declaring: "You crashed the car coming to work—that counts as work injury. All expenses reimbursed."

"Really?" Jin Ruochu's eyes lit up.

"A promise is a promise."

The two laughed heartily, completely ignoring Nan Zhiyi's clenched fists at the company entrance. Don't you know how expensive things are when you don't manage the household? Before even starting operations, there's already a luxury car expense. What a generous boss you are—if the company runs out of money, are we going back to the casino for withdrawals?

Jin Yulu gave a aningful glance at the communication between her superior and colleague, her feelings complex.

Three days hadn't been wasted. During breaks from using Magical Girl power, she had investigated the organization she was about to join—treating it like a new employee understanding the enterprise.

After investigation combined with her own speculation, it was indeed outrageous. Chairman Hibiscus had created the "Dr. Mu" identity out of thin air while navigating between Dock Gangs, secretly accumulating considerable influence. President Nan Zhiyi should have joined mid-term, probably related to the Vanguard Disaster Beast attack. Having childhood friends manage together was trustworthy, knowing each other's backgrounds. The Changfeng Financial Group young miss needn't be elaborated—constantly kidnapped, a police station regular. The important question was when did they et? It should be inseparable from that night with the Dock Gang. So fate's gears had already slowly turned.

Everyone's destinies intertwined to finally bring them to my side.

"Let's go."

Hibiscus snapped her fingers to attract the girls' attention, leading the way into the reception hall while saying:

"I know you're all curious about extraordinary matters, but don't rush. We're running a legitimate business—first get the surface work done properly. As they say, a penny stumps a hero. Get the resources for survival established first, then talk about expanding companions later..."

The girl wandered around twice before finding the elevator, still needing the president to confirm which floor—the big boss being completely unfamiliar with her own office building was indeed embarrassing.

"By the way, the electronic technology investnt you ntioned to has so results, but the truly cutting-edge money-making technology, talent, and equipnt are all in the California region. Not establishing a branch won't work..."

Nan Zhiyi briefly reported the business situation.

Currently encountering bottlenecks: should they continue expanding? Every step forward from now on would be quite money-burning and required careful consideration.

The group had just reached the work floor when they saw employees hastily tidying up before nodding greetings.

"Why so undisciplined?" Jin Yulu raised an eyebrow, unable to suppress the aura rolling from her newly awakened as a Magical Girl. "You should greet loudly."

"Good morning!!!"

Actually, she hadn't ant to lecture—just making an observation, since it would seem presumptuous as a guest. But sohow everyone always said she was intimidating and stressful. When leaving the Special Attack Forces, subordinates were half reluctant, half relieved, hoping the demon superior would find other employnt. Was it that bad?

Employees were also confused, wondering what the situation was with their company recruiting military personnel? The waters ran deep—they absolutely didn't dare slack off.

Hibiscus laughed: "Are you the pressure monster type?"

Jin Yulu scratched her head: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Boss, rest assured—before pushing others, I'll put in 5 tis the work."

"...That's not what I ant."

While the two chatted to break in the atmosphere, looking completely unrelated to work, accountants, lawyers, and engineers all gathered around Nan Zhiyi to report situations. The girl handled them with practiced ease, her capable style making Jin Ruochu curiously lean in to listen.

Having previously discussed Five-Color Narcissus Company's business situation when they t at the hospital, seeing was believing. Let the Fortune 500 parachuted executive take a look.

After listening for a while, Jin Ruochu declared: "I won't comnt on information technology investnt, but you're completely wrong about real estate."

Nan Zhiyi humbly sought advice: "Is expanding property services wrong?"

"How much is that worth? Plus you're mainly playing overseas—they've already passed the real estate dividend period and can't make much. You're now using overseas real estate as collateral for large-scale borrowing while exchange rates are good. Listen to —play real estate dostically. Everyone's doing urban investnt bonds; we can't fall behind. I rember there are 3 official land sale auctions this week—take them all."

"You think I don't want to? People waiting to split the money are lined up in the circle—you can't get in with a needle or splash water. I'm a nobody upstart with no background..."

Halfway through, Nan Zhiyi smiled, looking at Jin Ruochu who was clearly a treasure chest.

"Otherwise, why would you hire ?"

The two girls quickly moved to major business strategy adjustnts in just a few words. Their dialogue was full of pearls of wisdom, flowing like clouds and water. Middle-aged people twice their age could only nod and take notes.

With their family backgrounds, natural intelligence, acquired effort, plus Magical Girl enhancent giving them photographic mories and quick thinking, they threw themselves into work with unlimited enthusiasm.

After learning about the Changfeng Group young miss's identity, everyone was even more respectful. So we have an inseparable relationship with a super enterprise? Even better—perhaps we could transfer to the parent company in the future? Must show 120% spirit.

They were more curious about where their hands-off boss found so many talents. You're better than headhunting companies.

Boss Mu's managent ability was just for laughs, but she excelled at knowing and employing people, absolutely daring to delegate. Just saying the magic phrase "what shall we do" was enough.

Jin Yulu observed for a while, never seeing the girl beside her chatting casually interfere with company strategy. As chairman, she completely didn't care? She really liked this atmosphere.

But you all seem a bit too undisciplined.

"Boss Mu, what do you usually work on? What are you best at?"

After asking, Jin Yulu felt she lacked emotional intelligence. Fortunately, the other party wasn't petty and imdiately pulled out a deck of playing cards, single-handedly shuffling and changing cards to a straight flush.

"I raise funds—like going to casinos."

No joke. Though every Magical Girl could stir up trouble in casinos, convenience still depended on ti magic. Causal magic worked to so extent but wasn't stable enough. Anyway, with solid cash flow, the company had no problems—just had to change locations to fleece sheep in the future. Rabbits don't eat grass near their burrows.

Jin Yulu smiled awkwardly and nodded skeptically. Suddenly she felt Hibiscus put an arm around her shoulders.

"You know what a team needs?"

"Good fighting ability."

"Not enough. Top teams need mountain-guarding tigers, agile leopards, far-seeing eagles, battle-tested wolves, and door-watching dogs. We've now found the first four. Tell , whose achievent is this?"

"Of course Boss Mu's."

"My job is assigning work to you all. For example, you need to handle Disaster Beast material import-export business based on previous experience—you should be able to interface with clients, right? You'll manage this aspect. The important thing isn't making money but controlling this new era's strategic resource. I'm counting on you entirely."

"Guaranteed to complete the mission." Jin Yulu stood at attention and saluted loudly.
