Xuanhuan: They Can Hear My Thoughts, So I Lay Low and Become an Eternal God of Magic

Lin En binds to the "Ultimate Slacker System" and pretends to be the most good-for-nothing apprentice in Winter Spring Valley, keeping a low profile until he reaches max level. What he doesn't expect is that his twin-tailed loli master, Nanako, can hear every thought in his head. During a magic test, he agonizes over what score to choose. His master silently tells him, "Pick one." He passes by the narrowest possible margin, leaving Nanako frozen in shock. "One five-hundred-millionth of his power scores 2,321? Just how strong is he?!"

When the Holy Overlord descends to bestow a blessing, Lin En's thoughts race: "Isn't this the dumb cat I used to raise?" The Overlord immediately loses it and roars, "Why aren't you dead yet?!" Lin En seals off space. "Keep your voice down. Don't scare my master." The Overlord lies on the ground, meowing pitifully. Hiding in a corner and listening to the whole thing, Nanako clenches her fists. "You act like a well-behaved apprentice, but in your head you call me a hundred-year-old loli? Copy the basics 50,000 times!"

High above Winter Spring Valley, the Holy Overlord shoulders a tattered bundle and flees in the dead of night. Lin En yawns, and a prompt pops up from the System: Had a spring dream, Magic +1. He rolls over and goes back to sleep. "I can deal with that master who reads minds after I reach max level."
