You're Finished-You're a Magical Girl Too

Like creatures in nature encountering their natural predator, Caesar and Nono broke out in goosebumps, their Golden Eyes silently lighting up.

Raised from childhood as the heir to the Gattuso Family, Caesar had trained extensively to withstand pressure, to keep fear from preventing him from drawing his blade when he truly faced Dragon Raja on the battlefield. Yet at this moment, he could not stop the urge to flee from a mere human.

At the very least, Caesar had trusted Lu Mingfei when he shouted, "Move!" before attacking. But this went beyond trust. A being capable of punching straight through a Rank A Deadpool empowered by the Bronze Throne Word Spirit was enough to make every nearby creature instinctively stay alert and flee.

After all, no one wanted to be the next person with a window opened in their chest.

Meanwhile, Lu Mingfei was not just standing there striking a pose. He was frantically complaining to Chu Ke in his mind.

"What do I do? What do I do? My toes are already curling!"

"If they see me like this, I might as well die!" Lu Mingfei was on the verge of collapse. He understood a universal truth: people died twice in their lives. Once physically, and once socially.

And he was experiencing the latter right now.

Lu Mingfei might have felt a little better if Caesar could transform into a Magical Girl too, but it was obvious that Caesar did not even know Magical Girls existed!?

"Hey, it's fine!" Chu Ke waved a hand grandly, looking utterly unconcerned.

"Oh?" Lu Mingfei's eyes lit up. "Does Chu Ge have a solution?"

He still remembered how Chu Ke had sealed off the sounds of the battle last time, preventing anyone from being drawn over.

"Oh, no. It's not me suffering social death." Chu Ke replied calmly.

"Fuck you!" The last shred of hope in Lu Mingfei's heart died completely, but thankfully, heaven never blocked every path.

At the brink of life and death, the human brain operated at explosive speed. Lu Mingfei's eyes lit up again. "Chu Ge, didn't you say I could use lovepower to exchange for magic? Do you have any magic that can make people lose their memories?"

Chu Ke fell silent for a moment. "...Afei, have you finally embarked on a life of crime?"

"Ahhh, just tell me whether you have it!" This was a matter of life and death. It was no time to worry about that.

"Sigh, I really can't do anything with you." Chu Ke sighed. "That monster just now was stronger than the last one, so I'll count it as ten points. You have successfully exchanged for Amnesia Magic, with five points remaining."

"Now that you've been empowered by magic, go make them forget."

Lu Mingfei froze. He did not feel any different.

"How do I use this magic?"

"It's simple. Go up and give them a chop to the head with your hand!" Chu Ke demonstrated with a swing of his arm. His pitch-black arm created a circular afterimage as he swung it, just like an anime character.

Lu Mingfei shuddered after hearing that. Seriously? Never mind whether this was magical amnesia or physical amnesia—he had already been forced to accept the aesthetic of a muscle-bound Magical Girl. But he still could not control his strength in this form. With his current arm strength, if he hit an ordinary person, there probably would not even be scraps left. They would instantly turn into a bloody mist, right? "What if I kill them?" Lu Mingfei asked, looking troubled.

"Why are you asking so many questions? Just go. I told you, you've been empowered by magic!" Chu Ke seemed annoyed by his questions. He gave Lu Mingfei a shove, then vanished.

Lu Mingfei hesitated for a moment, but eventually gritted his teeth and turned around.

Caesar and Nono were startled by the movement and took a step back.

Nono opened her mouth, about to say something, when Lu Mingfei abruptly appeared beside her as if he had teleported and brought his palm down on her head.

"Ah, am I... going to die?" In that instant, visions flashed before Chen Motong's eyes like a life flashing before her eyes, and then she lost consciousness.

Duang! A bizarre sound effect rang out. Nono was smashed flat like rubber into a pancake before springing back, then fell stiffly to the ground. Three little birds circled above her head.

Lu Mingfei glanced at her curiously, the corner of his mouth twitching. They were actual little birds.

"So it really is 'magic.'"

"What did you do?!" An angry roar sounded from behind him, and Lu Mingfei turned around.

Clang! A long hunting knife struck Lu Mingfei's chest, covered by his dress, sending sparks flying.

Looking up, he saw Caesar's jade-green eyes filled with fury. His golden hair gradually flared up, like an enraged male lion, vividly demonstrating what it meant to rage for a beauty.

Seeing this, Lu Mingfei gently placed his hand over the blade. Caesar immediately felt as though a mountain were pressing down upon his knife. He could not pull it free at all.

"Don't worry. She only fainted. When she wakes up, she'll lose a small portion of her memories. There won't be any aftereffects or other problems." After explaining, Lu Mingfei slowly released Caesar's knife.

Feeling the pressure vanish, Caesar pulled his knife back.

He had actually more or less seen that Nono was fine. It was simply that Lu Mingfei put too much pressure on him, and the palm strike had come so fiercely that Caesar had instinctively assumed Lu Mingfei had chopped Nono to death.

Thinking about it now, with Lu Mingfei's strength, Nono probably would not even have left behind an intact corpse. She would never have "bounced" like that.

Still, Caesar remained vigilant. Facing Lu Mingfei, he slowly backed away, crouched beside Nono, checked her breathing, and then lifted her eyelids to inspect her pupils.

There really was no problem. She had merely fainted.

"..." Caesar was silent for a moment before asking Lu Mingfei, "What do you want with me?"

He was not stupid. With Lu Mingfei's speed, he could have knocked both him and Nono unconscious. Clearly, Lu Mingfei needed something from him.

At that moment, Caesar felt annoyed—annoyed by his own lack of strength.

"Mm." Lu Mingfei nodded. The next moment, the clothes all over his body exploded into motes of light as he released his transformation.

Seeing this, Caesar let out a breath. "That's sincere."

He could tell that Lu Mingfei's strength might not come from some unknown Word Spirit, but rather from the dress he wore, which was likely an alchemical item.

That meant Lu Mingfei truly wanted to negotiate with him.

"Can you let me see that?" Lu Mingfei pointed at Caesar's sleeve.

"Hm?" Caesar paused. As if making some decision, he handed over Dicktator, the only weapon in his hand.

"Take it."

Lu Mingfei froze. "Not that. That yellow gemstone necklace."

Caesar froze as well, then removed the gemstone necklace from his wrist and tossed it over.

Lu Mingfei caught the gem and compared it to his own. Sure enough, aside from the color, they were exactly identical.

"Chu Ge, is this also a Magical Girl gem?" Lu Mingfei called out to the all-purpose Chu Ke in his mind.

"Yes. Looks like you've found another Magical Girl." Chu Ke appeared from nowhere and confirmed it.

Hearing that, Lu Mingfei looked at Caesar's chest muscles, which were practically bursting out of his clothes. His expression became complicated as he tossed the necklace back.

What the fuck kind of pirate ship did I get myself onto? What kind of Magical Girls are all men? Lu Mingfei had thought he was ridiculous enough, but this guy was on an entirely different level.

Caesar caught the necklace tossed back to him, confused as to why Lu Mingfei had looked him over with that expression.

But in the next second, he was no longer confused.

Lu Mingfei opened his mouth and said in a complicated tone, "You're finished. You've been chosen by the gem too."

"You're a Magical Girl now too."
