My Honkai: Star Rail System Arrived Early

Ji Yuan didn't take off his clothes; instead, he put on his shoes and walked outside, holding the measuring instrument.

"Tingyun doesn't have this either. For safety, I'll go measure her."

He said this to Sushang as he walked.

Watching Ji Yuan leave, Sushang slammed the table forcefully.

"What kind of brother is this! Taking his sister's things to take care of another woman. And you dare tell me you weren't dating early, for a hundred years? I bet my nephew is already ninety-nine years old."

She said angrily.

Especially when she said the last half of the sentence, she became even more annoyed, increasing the force with which she hit the table.

Chapter 47: Phantylia: Mimicking Tingyun's Job Isn't Easy

In Sushang's eyes, her older brother had forgotten his sister for a girl. But in Ji Yuan's eyes, he was bravely sacrificing himself for the entire Luofu Starfaring Vessel.

Was it something a young man over a hundred years old could do, to go and act with an Emissary?

Holding the measuring instrument, Ji Yuan returned to his room.

His movements were as gentle as possible, as if he were afraid of waking up the 'Tingyun'.

Phantylia, who was pretending to be asleep, immediately woke up when Ji Yuan entered. Her body instinctively wanted to go outside and talk to Ji Yuan, but she stopped herself as soon as she started to move.

"No, if it were Tingyun, she wouldn't have the ability to react so quickly."

Phantylia thought this and then continued to pretend to be asleep.

"I can't make this mistake again in the future. Later, when I have time, I'll observe her subconscious reactions and psychological activities when responding to external stimuli."

She created a phantom space to trap Tingyun, constantly mimicking all of Tingyun's experiences from childhood to the present in her mind, and then began to perfectly replicate her reactions and behavioral logic in any situation.

Extracting memories was the first step to impersonating someone, and the second step was to imitate every detail and expected reaction in her life; the final step was to perfectly replicate her behavioral logic, the reasons behind her actions, so as not to reveal any flaws.

As a member of the Suiyang clan, Phantylia was also aware of the various failed possession cases of the Suiyang, where subtle differences in behavior from before the possession were noticed by those around them.

A subtle difference from you would be a huge red flag in the eyes of loved ones.

So Phantylia continued to pretend to be asleep, even adjusting her bodily state to sleep. After a while, she pretended to wake up, yawning and stretching, and walked outside barefoot.

In her memory, Ji Yuan had never seen Tingyun wake up.

"It must be tough for you to guard me here, Ji Yuan." Phantylia quietly approached Ji Yuan, who was sitting on the sofa, and poked his cheek with her finger, then flipped over and sat beside him, smiling. "I feel safe only because you're guarding me on this unfamiliar Orion planet."

As she spoke, she placed her feet on the coffee table and fiddled with them.

"If you weren't staying in my room, I wouldn't be guarding you like this. Remember to stick close to the Cloud Knights when you go out on missions and protect yourself."

Ji Yuan rolled his eyes at Phantylia and said to her.

His gaze swept over Phantylia's feet, and his eyes instinctively dodged to the side. These were the feet of the Lord of Destruction, incredibly dangerous.

But after dodging, he reacted again.

Wait, these were the feet of the Lord of Destruction Phantylia. How many people in the entire sea of stars had seen them? Coming here was for this very reason, so why not look as much as he wanted?

Look, look more.

Ji Yuan's gaze was fixed on them.

As Ji Yuan stared at her, Phantylia frantically tried to figure out what Tingyun would be feeling.

"She would definitely be happy to be looked at like this by Ji Yuan, but she would still be shy. She'd be anticipating Ji Yuan making a more intimate move, and her heart would be filled with girlish shyness."

She began to put herself in that state of mind.

Pride and happiness mixed with shyness.

This was quite difficult.

It was Phantylia's first time doing this.

To conceal from others, one must first brainwash oneself. Phantylia repeated this in her mind several times, and her lips actually curved upwards naturally, showing happiness. At the same time, a slight blush of shyness appeared on her face.

Ji Yuan secretly watched for a while, but unfortunately, he couldn't touch them directly. Then he picked up the measuring instrument and said to Phantylia, "Right, Tingyun, I came to measure your body data."

"Body data? Are you planning to buy me clothes?"

Phantylia tilted her head and asked.

"No, I'm planning to get you some insurance." Ji Yuan told Phantylia that he was going to measure her body dimensions to create an energy shield.

"Will you do this shield?"

"Of course."

Ji Yuan nodded.

"Good, then this humble maiden will certainly do it." Phantylia retracted her feet and stood up.

"Is this how you measure body dimensions?"

"Mmm... you'll have to take off your clothes too." Ji Yuan said to Phantylia, "This is a close-fitting shield, you should at least be down to your underwear."

Phantylia's movements froze.

To make her take off her clothes down to her underwear.

Couldn't Tingyun or Huohuo, or any other female foxfolk pilots, have done this measurement?

She thought to herself.

But then she remembered she was Tingyun right now.

How would Tingyun act?

"Perfect, you measuring my body is just right. My body is about to be seen by you, so you'll have to take responsibility, okay?"

Phantylia opened her fan and leaned in towards Ji Yuan.

Take it off!

Tingyun would definitely happily take off her clothes in front of Ji Yuan.

There would be no need for any reminders.

Phantylia thought to herself.

Not only did she have to take off her own clothes, but she also had to do it with genuine happiness. Phantylia continued to brainwash herself internally.

Be happy, enjoy being looked at by Ji Yuan...

"Once I finally seize the Ambrosial Arbor, I must let him taste true despair."

Phantylia thought to herself.

This thought lasted only for a moment before she quickly suppressed it.

No, I can't show this emotion, or I'll reveal a weakness.

She quickly stripped down to her undergarments.

Her figure was slender yet shapely, with a full bust and a rounded posterior. Though not large, her form was perfect, her flat stomach smooth, and her fluffy tail swayed erratically behind her.

"Ji Yuan, aren't you going to measure my body data yet?"

Phantylia hid her face with her fan and said to Ji Yuan.

Seeing Ji Yuan's intense gaze fixed on her, Phantylia's lips curved upwards even more.

She felt a slight confusion as to why Ji Yuan had seemed so shy before, yet was now looking at her body so intently.

After a moment of thought, she found her own explanation.

He was truly terrified, and he also truly cared about Tingyun, which was why he had made such a request of her.

Ji Yuan picked up the measuring instrument and began to measure.

This instrument measured remotely, needing only a scan to gather all the body data.

Ji Yuan felt a great sense of regret about this. Why did the instrument have to be so high-tech? If the technology wasn't so advanced, he could have just used a tape measure and measured inch by inch.

From top to bottom, Ji Yuan measured the body of the Tingyun that Phantylia had transformed into.

Chapter 48: If You Dare Tease Me, Be Prepared to Be Teased Back

"Alright, I'm done with the measurements."

Ji Yuan silently recorded the body data and then put away the measuring instrument.

Phantylia did not rush to put her clothes back on.

"How was it? What do you think of my figure?"

Phantylia leaned close to Ji Yuan, brushed her leg against him, and then whispered into his ear.

Ji Yuan immediately recoiled in fear.

This fear was genuine, not feigned.

Before, he had been worried about accidents if they got too close, but now he was genuinely afraid of the Lord of Destruction.

Phantylia pouted her lips, feigning hurt.

She truly felt wronged.

And she also felt wronged on behalf of the Tingyun she was impersonating.

I've practically thrown myself at you, and you still look scared.

"Interesting, truly interesting. He has the desire but not the guts. He likes Tingyun's figure on one hand, but keeps his distance on the other. This conflicted personality, I'm really looking forward to seeing him completely change his mind and fall into despair in the end."

Phantylia thought to herself.

Looking at Ji Yuan in his conflicted state, she felt a joy akin to that of a devoted follower.

She didn't have many emotions herself, but since she was currently imitating Tingyun, she had to perfectly replicate her feelings.

Phantylia remained in her undergarments and said to Ji Yuan with an interested expression, "Oh right, what about your body data? Do you want me to measure it for you?"

Tingyun would definitely want to return the favor in this situation.

"I, uh..."

Ji Yuan's face showed a look of conflict.

"What? Are you unwilling to be seen by little me?"

Phantylia opened her folding fan, and a misty haze seemed to appear in her eyes.

"Fine, I'll take them off then."

Ji Yuan, appearing resigned, began to undress.

At the same time, he thought to himself:

This is all a sacrifice I'm making for the safety of the Luofu Starfaring Vessel...

Soon, he had taken off all his clothes, leaving him in only a pair of shorts.

His well-trained physique was completely exposed.

Although he was a civil official, his mother, Suyi, had always wanted him to join the Cloud Knights, so she naturally made sure he trained his body well. As a result, Ji Yuan's physique was almost perfect. His muscles were sculpted, his shoulders broad and waist narrow – the ideal physique of a male lead in an action anime.

Or perhaps, the physique of a male lead in an adult anime.

Phantylia glanced at him and mused internally.

"Alright, I'm going to start measuring you now."

Phantylia said with a smile.

Then, she reached out and pressed against his pectoral muscles.

Very firm, with a great feel.

Ji Yuan looked at Phantylia with a question mark on his face.

Phantylia, without changing her expression, said, "I'm doing this to measure for realism."
