Did the Wish Come True?

Niman rubbed her temples. She gave a bitter smile. "At this point, even if you told me Little Nora was a Transcender, I'd believe you on the spot." "Little Nora, whisper it to me—are you Zhen's little sister?" Yu Xian snapped his dislocated jaw back into place, leaned in close to Little Nora, and asked in a low whisper. Little Nora blinked, looking thoroughly innocent. "I don't know." "..." Yu Xian hadn't harbored much hope of getting an answer out of Little Nora to begin with. Yet he couldn't resist looking at Little Nora's attributes again. No matter how many times he looked, it was simply beyond absurd. [Name: Nora Hild Garuda] [Enhancement: +7] [Level: 75] [Class: Fate Sovereign] [Skills:] [Gourmet Blessing: Creates lucky cuisine.

Can I, pretty please, Big Sis?' grants any wish an 80% chance of coming true immediately.] [Current Buffs: Empowered Luck, Misfortune Ward, Death Immunity, Lucky Aura] ... ... What absurd attributes. Especially that final 'Sister's Gaze'—Yu Xian felt an overwhelming urge to report someone for cheating. Still, when he remembered that Little Nora was one of their own—oh, never mind then. "Little Nora, how do you think I've treated you?" Zhang Shou's eyes darted about before he leaned in front of Little Nora with an ingratiating grin. Little Nora blinked and answered, "You like farting." During one of their group meals, Zhang Shou had let out a foul fart. It had stunk so badly that the memory was burned into her mind. "Alright, but aren't we good friends?" Zhang Shou said, his face reddening slightly. Everyone saw right through Zhang Shou's intentions. They all smiled without speaking, equally curious about what Little Nora could actually do. "I guess so." Little Nora glanced at Yu Xian. Out of respect for Yu Xian, she grudgingly acknowledged Zhang Shou as a friend. As for whether he was a *good* friend, that would require serious consideration. Striking while the iron was hot, Zhang Shou pressed, "Then could you make a wish to make me reach Level 250 right away?" "Should I try?" Little Nora grew curious as well. Zhang Shou nodded repeatedly, beaming with joy. "Yes, give it a shot!" With that, Little Nora hopped down from her chair. In truth, she hadn't used any of these skills since her enhancement, simply because there had been no need. "Origin Transformation!" Little Nora activated the skill, and brilliant golden light instantly erupted from her entire body. Everyone present shut their eyes by reflex. The golden light was far too glaring, leaving nothing else visible. Once the radiance dispersed, they opened their eyes one after another, only to freeze in place. A little girl clad in a yellow duckling coat stood before them. Her chubby little cheeks looked utterly irresistible to pinch. "So cute!" Gong Qian, Shui Yuetian, Niman, Nora, Fang Qinghao, and Little Huangquan felt as though an arrow had pierced their hearts the moment they saw Little Nora in this form. Their eyes practically turned into hearts. Clearly, this form possessed an unimaginable charm for women older than her. "Little Nora, let Big Sis give you a hug!" Unable to hold back, Gong Qian pounced forward and scooped Little Nora into her arms. The others immediately rushed up as well, patting her head, hugging her, and nuzzling her until Little Nora blushed bright red. "All right, calm down, all of you," Yu Xian said, caught between tears and laughter. As he spoke, he reached out, pulled Little Nora into his own arms, and quickly retreated from this mob of crazy women. "You just want to hug her yourself!" Gong Qian said indignantly. Shui Yuetian blocked Yu Xian's path of retreat and threatened, "Give Little Nora back to us." "Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude," Niman said with a sweet smile. Yu Xian immediately bolted to the right, shouting, "Old Zhang, hurry and hold them off! They've all gone mad!" "Don't you run!" The women immediately gave chase. Zhang Shou attempted to intervene, only for Gong Qian to kick him flat onto the floor. Well, in truth, he had simply gone with the momentum and flopped down, letting the women trample right over him before sighing, "Salty Fish, I did my best." He couldn't very well pick a real fight with them, after all. After a round of playful chaos that wasted a full half hour, everyone finally settled down. Then, all eyes turned back to Little Nora. Zhang Shou looked at her with particular anticipation. If the wish truly worked, wouldn't he instantly become a Mighty One? Just the thought made his blood pump with excitement. Little Nora took a deep breath and called out at the top of her lungs, "I want my friend Zhang Shou to reach 250 straight away! Pretty please? Can I, pretty please, Big Sis?" A breeze drifted past. Everyone turned their gazes toward Zhang Shou. In the next instant, red characters slowly surfaced across Zhang Shou's forehead: 250. "Pfft!" Niman couldn't help bursting into laughter. She had lived on Earth for quite some time, so she naturally knew that '250' carried a rather special meaning in Huaxia. With her burst of laughter, the others broke out laughing as well. Only Zhang Shou stood there with a giant question mark floating over his head. What happened? Did the wish come true?
