Ordinary Life, an Unordinary Homeroom Teacher, and an Ordinary Person Pulling Someone into a Hug / The Monster's (Return)

"You're back..."

As Snow Woman said this, she calmly put down her phone, which was displaying news from China, and then looked at Takemikazuchi: "Did you have fun in China?"

Upon hearing Snow Woman's words, Takemikazuchi blinked and, amidst the three's curiosity, recounted his experiences over the past few days as if spilling beans.

Although the description is disorganized and even somewhat incoherent, it is filled in as thoughts come to mind.

However, I have at least given a general description of the situation.

However, the three of them had different focuses on this matter...

Shuten smacked his lips, pondering whether that Hundred-Flower Grass Snake Water was really as awful as Takemikazuchi had described...

It's no wonder Shuten that way, after all, Takemikazuchi spent a lot of time describing the psychological trauma that the Hundred-Flower Grass Snake Water had caused him.

Tamamo, meanwhile, swayed her large, fluffy tail, pondering what exactly this Moerae was.

It sounds like a super powerful and super evil enemy.

And the Snow Woman...

The Snow Woman heard what she had wanted to ask from the beginning, but hadn't directly asked... As expected, Cong Yu is Cong Yu.

With this thought in mind, Snow Woman looked at Takemikazuchi and pressed, "Could you elaborate on the 'Xian Kui' you mentioned?"

Achoo! Achoo!

Cong Yu rubbed her nose while doing a spring cleaning...

I figured it might be because there was too much dust.

Chapter 716 Ordinary Life and Extraordinary Life: The Homeroom Teacher and an Ordinary Person Hugs Each Other

With the successful conclusion of the Myriad Immortals Ceremony, Cong Yu's identity has been officially revealed... Now all the strange people know who Cong Yu is.

But perhaps it could also be described as a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.

Cong Yu's normal life as a human was not greatly affected... This does not mean that people in the human community did not know that Cong Yu was the King of Wind City.

The Myriad Immortals Ceremony is broadcast live in its entirety, and all kinds of information, big and small, can be found on the official website.

Even the progress of a crucial experiment can be effectively traced on the official website... which effectively avoids various unfortunate situations.

The two characters "Cong Yu" clearly displayed cannot be easily dismissed with an explanation like "Oh - just someone with the same name."

Therefore, without a doubt.

Cong Yu was indeed a big shot, and it became known that he was a very important person.

So, should Cong Yu choose to disappear from the public eye and live as Nameless Nobody, or should she choose to become a legend?

The answer is -- there's no need for that.

That's how it is in Wind City.

Cong Yu's love for it was not without reason... as if it were something she was quite at ease with, and as if nothing had changed.

A month ago, Cong Yu was blown away to a foreign land like the wind.

Then, they returned with the truth and a new face, wearing a brand-new laurel wreath... but it was still just that gentle breeze.

It has never changed from beginning to end.

Thinking this, Cong Yu rested his chin on his hand, yawning, listening to the chattering of his classmates around him.

On their first day back at Wind City High School, the students were all discussing whether Cong Yu was the King of Wind City.

Even past incidents like "Cong Yu Monster and saves magical girls" and "Cong Yu Cockroach Monster and saves the whole school" were brought up.

However, it doesn't seem to have changed much from my previous school life...

Even though they didn't know that Cong Yu was the King of Wind City, people still talked about Cong Yu and would come up to chat with him.

In the past, people discussed academic achievements and appearances; now they talk about the King of Wind City's identity. Actually, there's not much difference between the two.

There were also those who really wanted to talk to Cong Yu, but due to the pressure from Yaochuan Guang who was always by their side, they ultimately gave up.

Conversely, after there is no need to conceal important matters.

Cong Yu felt that life had become much easier...

The only thing to watch out for is the reporters surrounding the school, holding cameras and waiting at any moment.

After all, Cong Yu's identity is definitely big news.

In fact, those reporters had previously stopped the principal from interviewing him and even prepared to rush into the school to get exclusive reports.

However, they were stopped by the combined efforts of the Student Council and security guards.

In any case, school life has remained as peaceful as ever, at least in terms of results, it hasn't been disturbed much.

As Cong Yu was thinking this, Yaochuan Guang turned around and showed his phone to Cong Yu: "Hey, Cong Yu- chan, look at this notification."

[Statement from the Salvation Organization (tentative name): The success rate of the Transformation Ritual has reached a new high. It is currently in the clinical trial phase and is open to those suffering from intractable diseases. However, certain risks remain; please consider carefully.]

It appears to be a report about the Myriad Immortals Ceremony, followed by related updates and news.

"This should be a good thing, right?"

Yaochuan Guang asked this question, glancing around at the students who were already preparing to leave class, and then asked Cong Yu: "How about making ordinary people all master magic and become magical girls (or boys) or something?"

This is a rather complex issue.

However, Cong Yu was quite surprised that Yaochuan Guang was only asking him about this now... even though he had already revealed the goal of "transformation of all" to the whole world at the Myriad Immortals Ceremony.

"That's not necessarily true."

Cong Yu said this, he shook his head and began to slowly explain, "Rather than saying it's good or bad, it's more accurate to say it's 'necessary'."

"Without the threat from Moerae and the desire to thwart his plot, no one would have chosen to go through such an unnecessary trouble."

"If I had to judge it as good or bad, I can only say I don't know... It could be a good thing, or it could be a bad thing; the future is hard to predict."

As Cong Yu spoke, Yaochuan Guang nodded, seemingly understanding, when an excited voice came from the window. "What? I can become a real magical girl? That's definitely a good thing!"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Cong Yu and Yaochuan Guang turned their heads.

Then I saw a lone tuft of hair hovering at the window... I could only see half a head, not the face.

But that's enough.

Even without listening to the voice, it's easy to tell that the only person in the whole school who's that short is the homeroom teacher.

Then, the homeroom teacher, who had propped himself up on the windowsill, made a grand entrance!

The homeroom teacher, looking visibly excited, took a deep breath, seemingly preparing for a serious speech. "Magical Girl."

As she spoke, the homeroom teacher, her face beaming with excitement, feigned a lack of language skills. "Magical girl—magical girl, magical girl. Magical girl! Magical magical girl!"

Yaochuan Guang: "???"

Amidst Yaochuan Guang's bewildered expression and the impolite looks from his classmates—"Ah, he really has gone mad" —Cong Yu shook her head helplessly.

"I know what you want to say, but you're the homeroom teacher..."

Cong Yu's words drew even more attention. "What? How did you know? As expected of Cong Yu."

"Actually, ordinary magical girls don't grow in size. Although this experiment did create a magical girl who can grow up."

Cong Yu spoke, seeing the hope in her homeroom teacher's eyes, she mercilessly poured cold water on the idea. "Unfortunately, they're using ordinary humans for experiments, so your situation is just creating problems for them."

The homeroom teacher immediately objected, standing angrily at the window. "I'm perfectly normal too!"

Haha, you're blatantly lying.

Cong Yu's face showed obvious mockery, and the other classmates around him also raised their fingers with smiles, as if to say, "This is a relapse of an old illness."

What? What kind of attitude is this!

I'm perfectly normal, aren't I?!

The homeroom teacher was very dissatisfied, so she looked at Yaochuan Guang with expectant eyes... but even the kindest Yaochuan Guang could not give the answer she wanted.

In the end, Yaochuan Guang could only guiltily look away.

"Damn it! Ugh, that wicked Cong Yu, I..."

I'm going to explode at you!

Roaring angrily, the petite homeroom teacher did not hesitate to Pouncing Bite-Kill Cong Yu.

The homeroom teacher's plan was quite good. She first launched a Fake Out a high-five, making Cong Yu cower in fear, and then followed up with close combat!

But imagination is always beautiful...

The homeroom teacher, who Pounce towards him, was immediately embraced by Cong Yu, who was just like an ordinary person!

"Plop--"

Amidst this strange commotion, the homeroom teacher was pinned to the desk by Cong Yu, who then grabbed him and instantly subdued him!

This scene was witnessed by other homeroom teachers who were passing by in the hallway outside and had already announced the end of school for their respective classes.

After a brief moment of hesitation, they chose to ignore it and walk past.

The homeroom teacher died!

Actual social death!

A tip for avoiding unnecessary punctuation: Do not break the sentence after "society," as "sociality" is read as a single word.

Chapter 717 The Monster's (Return)

The Monster's attacks can be simply described as "hunting"; they attack cities in order to devour the Spirit Vein within them.

Cities are all built upon Spirit Vein Nodule.

The reason is that each of these cities needs to activate a "Great Barrier," which is known in China as a "Sect-Protecting Grand Formation."

These things are needed to fight off external enemies, such as Monster.

The Monster were drawn by the Spirit Vein, but were kept out by a barrier activated by the magic power provided by the Spirit Vein...

Thinking about it this way, it's actually quite interesting.

Moreover, it seems that as long as a city is built far away from Spirit Vein, there is no need to worry about the threat of Monster.

Is that so?

It's uncertain, as there are no detailed records...

However, some scholars who specialize in studying Monster believe that Monster, while wandering aimlessly, will destroy cities along the way.

Without the protection of a barrier, while it won't actively attract Monster, if you're unlucky, you won't even have a chance to catch your breath or wait for reinforcements... You can only pray that the Monster pass by the city.

But that's clearly not going to work.

Moreover, barriers aren't just for preventing Monster; they can also be used to seal off and protect cities at specific times.

Just like when Bright Moon City activated its protective measures to prevent the Moerae followers from causing trouble... barriers can also be used in this way.

However, this usage is not common in historical records.

Therefore, all things considered, the principle of building cities on Spirit Vein is far more beneficial than harmful... This is wisdom passed down for thousands of years.

Okay, I've gone off on a tangent.

The reason I mention this is because...

--

[WARNING! WARNING! Magic level -1919810! Confirmed to be Monster! Location: Spring City, approaching]

[Confirmed to be a colossal Monster! The Guardian Barrier is about to open! Residents are advised to stay in open areas to avoid injury or death from the earthquake.]

[Duplicate! Magic Energy Level -1919810! Confirmed as Magic...]

--

The magical girls of Spring City seemed rather indifferent to these broadcasts... because it didn't really concern them.

As mentioned before, Monster attacks are something that should only happen once in a very long time.

Under normal circumstances, the specialized "anti- Monster squads" are only responsible for eliminating small to medium-sized Monster in the wild.
