I Can See Health Bars in Real Life

"Not really... This still isn’t very good..."

Yatsugaya Miko didn’t know how to respond; her thoughts were a bit chaotic.

"Then how about this: If we use the name of a club to spread the faith, this shouldn’t be a problem, right?" Gu Mo pondered, rubbing his chin as he proposed another suggestion.

Since there are all sorts of bizarre clubs out there, those established under names like "supernatural" or "magical society" are arguably a form of alternative superstition. So, if we falsely advertise and use the guise of forming a club to openly preach at school...

——It’s probably doable, right?

"...Maybe."

Yatsugaya Miko wore a conflicted expression; she couldn’t really judge this somewhat outlandish idea, so she answered vaguely. Although she wanted to remind him that he was currently a teacher, recalling his true situation made her sigh and resist the urge to tease.

Is there any way around this?

After all, he’s the Fox Immortal. Can we really expect him to strictly abide by human societal norms?

Regarding this, the girl still had some understanding. She was a bit troubled as she thought about it, then stole a glance at the young man opposite her and answered with some resignation: "I can try. If there are no issues, I’ll do my best... By the way, Fox... teacher, what’s the name of our shrine?"

Continuously refusing isn’t a solution, especially since the other party has helped her several times.

It’s easy to take the money, but when it comes to doing things, pushing back is bad. Mikko understood this, so she didn’t always want to refuse his requests, even if they were difficult. She had no choice but to go forward bravely.

"The name of our shrine..."

Gu Mo considered for a moment: "Shimotsuki Shrine works, or Boli Shrine is fine too. See which one you prefer."

After all, they are both part of his enterprise; this is just a small subdivision in this dimension.

No problem!

How could a shrine have two names, especially when they seem completely unrelated? Yatsugaya Miko couldn’t help but feel a bit curious. She secretly noted both names down, then nodded earnestly: "Understood, Fox... teacher, I’ll give it a try later."

"Mm, then go ahead..."

Gu Mo casually waved his hand, as if what they were discussing was just that simple.

The black-haired girl also breathed a small sigh of relief, she turned and walked out of the office. Despite feeling odd, the task was relatively free and easy, which was good enough... Now, onto the dilemma of how to handle the club’s preaching issue.

Ugh, just thinking about it starts to give me a headache.

It’s simple to agree, but achieving it won’t be easy.

She even doubted if she would only manage to recruit Xiao Hua into the club by graduation, and perhaps only as a number and not a true believer... Can she really account for this to the Fox Immortal?

"Wow—"

"So bold! Is that really Mikko?"

"Amazing! Tell us what happened!"

Still pondering over the headache-inducing issue, she had just returned to the classroom when she was met with waves of commotion upon entering the door. Yatsugaya Miko froze for a moment.

She looked at the girls who swarmed towards her, initially unable to process what was happening, her pupils clearly reflected the frenzy of her classmates around her, faces burning with the fire of gossip.

"Wait, what are you talking about..."

Yatsugaya Miko posed the question, as her classmates crowded around her into the classroom.

"Don’t play dumb! Mikko! We never thought you’d be so upfront..." one girl puckered her lips, her eyes gleamed bizarrely, "We saw it clearly outside the corridor. Were you rejected? Or scolded by the teacher? He seemed quite stern, and you didn’t dare look up..."

She looked at Mikko with some regret, feeling that she (in her mind) had pieced together the truth.

Because just by looking at it, you could tell: seeing Mikko in the office, after her initial courage to say a few words, she seemed foggy and out of it the whole time. She must have been directly rejected and severely scolded.

Even leaving the office and returning to the classroom, it was the same.

Upon first glance, it seemed like she had a heavy heart—certainly, she must have been deeply affected.

"Huh?"

The black-haired girl opposite, however, looked puzzled. What were her classmates talking about? She didn’t understand a thing.

......

"Not much exertion here; at least give me a progress bar..."

In the office, Gu Mo continued to rest his chin in his hand, lost in thought.

He appeared to be looking outside the window but was actually watching the reflection on the glass, intently observing his system panel.

The UI of the professional panel had changed massively, with a strange pill furnace as the background image, ignited in a raging flame with words appearing across the entire page, scrolling horizontally over and over:

—— "Currently simulating... Remaining time: ???"

Having reached the limit, there’s no way to continue further improvement. To enhance the Professional Level, objective progression unlocking is needed. After all, a small shrine cannot accommodate Great Gods. Only in the Inuyasha World, where one possesses powerful mana, immortality, and vast depth, is the "Immortal" panel effective——

Clearly, it can no longer support the constant and limitless promotion of an existence that can make giant planets tremble.

Gu Mo understood the restriction. He initially thought the system would release a task or give a direct hint, instructing him to collect corresponding occupation information in a Dungeon World to unlock subsequent enhancements and progression routes.

But surprisingly, the system provided a more direct option in this regard.

It allowed players to directly input collected professional template information or other mastered advanced knowledge as fusion materials to deduct a new occupational template.

Very user-friendly design, showing that the numerous professional templates collected aren’t entirely meaningless.

Gu Mo was quite elated as he threw all those composite materials in one go, adding his insights into the Authority of Life, bloodline ability in the Origin Domain, experience in exploring heart, spirit, and soul domains, and absorbed knowledge of the Mechanical God Civilization...

All also thrown in rigorously to continue deduction as additional parameters.

According to system descriptions, the more knowledge added, the greater the difficulty in deduction, and the longer the process. Consequently, the deduction process hasn’t concluded yet, and even the countdown shifted from over three thousand years to mere question marks.

Okay, looking at it from another perspective, at least there’s huge potential, encompassing the prospects of three major ascension routes.

Comforting himself this way, he sighed and closed the page.

......

Time flew by.

Unnoticed, half a month had gone by.

This morning, an unusual transfer student list landed in Gu Mo’s hands. He glanced at the list of names, and familiar names appeared one by one: Kenshan Yellow Springs, Togami Kagura, Shiragami Ise, Nakamura Takashi... This one he knew all too well.

"As expected, they’re all drawn in, the rhythm easily retrieved..."

He made such an evaluation calmly, then looked at the names and estimated how many among them came with the intent of making it more convenient to confirm if he was the Root of Evil Spirits, making it easier to remove him.

"What an assassination classroom..."
