The Magical Girl Who Lost Her Mind? I Picked Her Up and Remade Her!

"Phew..."

After absorbing enough energy from the young man with the broken leg, Bai Yu teleported away with the monster soldiers. However, after returning to the base, he wasn't in a hurry to find Meng Yue. With a thought, a faint purple light radiated from his body...

The next second, Bai Yu turned into a skinny, unremarkable-looking man. He activated his teleportation magic again, this time appearing in an empty alleyway.

Teleportation magic required a magic circle to be set up at the destination beforehand. However, Bai Yu had basically traversed the entire city, so he had placed magic circles in nearly every secluded location in Starry Sky City. After leaving the alley and taking a few turns, he successfully arrived beneath the apartment building where the two magical girls Papi had mentioned lived.

Bai Yu never relied on a single source of intelligence. Even the information Papi had provided in the Interrogation Chamber had to be personally verified before he could rest easy. Besides, Papi had only described what the two magical girls looked like before transforming. Bai Yu still needed to see their faces for himself.

But today was the weekend. Maybe the two of them would stay home all day and never come out... If they still hadn't come out by noon, he'd go do something else.

"Tap, tap, tap..."

Just then, a black-haired girl with twin ponytails ran downstairs! She was under five feet three, small and petite, yet brimming with energy! A long cloth bag was slung across her back, and it seemed to contain a wooden sword.

She had come out of that apartment, and her appearance matched Papi's description exactly. This girl was probably Ling Nai... the magical girl Crimson Blade.

So Bai Yu adjusted his pace, pretending that he had happened to walk right into her path. Ling Nai had been running too fast to stop in time, and her small body crashed straight into Bai Yu's chest!

"Ah!!"

Bai Yu put on the appearance of a frail and feeble man, letting Ling Nai's impact knock him flat onto his back! Ling Nai only stumbled back one small step. Then, when she looked at Bai Yu lying on the ground in pain, her expression immediately turned frantic!

"I-I'm sorry! I'm really sorry!"

She hurried over to Bai Yu and apologetically said, "Um... I was running too fast and didn't notice you! Are you okay? Can you get up on your own??"

"Ow, ow, ow..."

Bai Yu immediately clutched his lower back, his face twisted in agony. "My... my back feels like it's broken!"

"I'm sorry! I'm really sorry!!"

Seeing this, Ling Nai became even more flustered! She quickly pulled out her phone. "I'll call an ambulance for you!"

"It's fine..."

But Bai Yu raised a hand. "It's not that serious. No need to call an ambulance... Just help me find somewhere to sit for a while, and I'll be fine."

"B-But..."

"It's okay. My back's always been bad."

Supporting himself into a sitting position, Bai Yu smiled. "Besides, this was my fault too. I wasn't watching where I was going..."

"No... it was my fault..."

Shaking her head, Ling Nai hurriedly helped Bai Yu to his feet. Fortunately, Bai Yu's transformed body was fairly short. Otherwise, with Ling Nai's petite stature, his legs would have been dragging on the ground!

"I-I'll help you find somewhere to sit."

With Bai Yu's arm resting across the back of her neck, Ling Nai said this. She supported him over to a nearby bench before asking with concern, "Do you feel any better?"

"I think... a little better."

Relaxing his brow slightly, Bai Yu smiled. "Thank you, young lady."

"No, no... this was my fault to begin with!"

"By the way, why were you in such a hurry?"

Bai Yu casually began chatting with Ling Nai. "It's the weekend, so you don't have school. What could possibly have you rushing around so early in the morning?"

"I have training at the dojo this morning. Practice is about to start, so I got a little anxious and rushed out!"

Ling Nai shook the wooden sword on her back and said embarrassedly, "But I'm definitely going to be late now. I need to let the dojo know..."

"Is that a wooden sword you're carrying?"

Bai Yu naturally said, "I know a friend who also enjoys swinging around a wooden sword in his spare time."

"Really? What a coincidence!"

Hearing that, Ling Nai immediately relaxed, and a smile appeared on her face.

"But he only likes practicing by himself at home. He definitely isn't as serious or skilled as you are, young lady."

Then Bai Yu seemed to think of something. "How about having him come train with you sometime? He happens to be troubled by not having anyone around who shares his hobby..."

"Sure!"

Ling Nai answered without any guard up. "If he's really interested, I can introduce him to the dojo where I train!"

"Then thank you so much!"

Bai Yu immediately put on a delighted expression and smiled. "If my friend hears about this, he'll definitely be thrilled!"

"No, no... I bumped you into this state. I don't deserve your thanks..."

"I already said it's fine, so don't worry about it! How about we add each other on SuperChat? That way, when I tell him to contact you, I can let you know on SuperChat beforehand."

"Of course!"

And just like that, Ling Nai took out her phone and added Bai Yu as a friend.

Third update. Wait for tonight's update.

Didn't expect this thing could be used to invest in myself. I actually made it to second place...

The Urge to Defile Something Pure

After that, Ling Nai bade Bai Yu farewell with an apologetic expression, then hurried off to the dojo.

Bai Yu sat on the bench convincingly for a while before standing up and heading toward the alleyway... About thirty seconds later, a delivery guy walked out of the alley.

He carried a cardboard box back into the old residential complex where the sisters lived, made his way to the third floor of their building, and knocked on the door.

After more than two minutes, movement finally came from inside. First came an extremely impatient click of the tongue, then the door opened... A brown-haired girl in loose white casual clothes stood in the doorway and emotionlessly asked the delivery guy, "What is it?"

Bai Yu stared closely... Those eyes had absolutely no light in them. Completely opposite to the energetic Ling Nai he had just met, the brown-haired girl gave off the feeling that she had no motivation and no goals in life. Her entire demeanor could even be described as lifeless.

"Miss, your package!"

Disguised as a delivery guy, Bai Yu handed over the cardboard box in his hands. The brown-haired girl lazily yawned before saying, "You got the wrong address. I haven't bought anything lately."

"Oh, I'm sorry! This package belongs to another building. I read it wrong!"

After glancing at the label on the box, Bai Yu wore an expression of belated realization and immediately apologized profusely. "I'm so sorry, miss! A dead dog ran into me on the way here, so my head still isn't quite clear---"

As he spoke, Bai Yu observed the brown-haired girl... Her shoulders were trembling slightly, and her small hands had clenched tightly together!

"It's fine."

The brown-haired girl coldly replied before slamming the door shut! Bai Yu continued muttering outside, "It's all that dead stray dog's fault! It came rushing out of nowhere and knocked me over... Otherwise, I wouldn't have been so out of it that I delivered the package to the wrong place. I'll go slaughter that dog and eat it later!"

Bang!

The sound of something being kicked came from inside the apartment!

"I heard a bunch of stray dogs have been gathering by the river lately. When I have time, I'll go slaughter every last one of them! Dog meat hotpot and all that... I love it!"

Afraid that the person inside might not hear him, Bai Yu deliberately raised his voice for the final sentence. He waited in place for several seconds, but no more sounds came from the apartment... Still, his intuition told him that a chilling gaze was currently fixed tightly on him!

That woman must be pressed against the peephole right now, memorizing my face.

Bai Yu then happily hummed a tune as he turned and walked downstairs. This trip had personally confirmed that Papi's intelligence was entirely accurate!

The brown-haired girl, Ling Li... the magical girl Xinghua, truly was a listless slacker with no motivation whatsoever. Only when dogs were mentioned did she react strongly! That gaze from behind the peephole just now... had clearly carried killing intent!

Bai Yu could tell that if Ling Li had the ability, she would absolutely have rushed out and stabbed him to death! This girl really wasn't normal. Would an ordinary person want to stab a stranger just because he said he was going to kill some stray dogs?

As for Ling Nai... the magical girl Crimson Blade, she was a very kind, earnest, and honest girl. Bai Yu could tell that her gaze was incomparably pure. She was clearly the sort who would risk her life to protect others!

That purity... was so pure that Bai Yu couldn't help wanting to defile it immediately! Unfortunately, a girl with that sort of personality probably wouldn't have her sense of self shaken by just one or two incidents. She was likely the type of hero who would continue protecting everyone no matter how many setbacks she suffered!

A hero...

At that moment, an idea suddenly surfaced in Bai Yu's mind. He chuckled inwardly. A person like you wouldn't submit no matter how much suffering your enemies put you through... But what if most of your suffering came from your teammates?

Or perhaps from the darkness of human nature? Maybe that would be enough to break her~~~

It was a little cruel, but as the leader of the Monster Organization, Bai Yu couldn't exactly let magical girls experience all the goodness and beauty of the world, could he? Help them strengthen their resolve to eliminate the Monster Organization? Did he want to die?

Besides... Papi seemed to have a strange degree of faith in Crimson Blade! Even though Crimson Blade wasn't very strong right now, it believed that one day, she would be able to kill him!

"I'm already being quite kind. The process may be painful... but I guarantee that you'll be happy in the end!"

After entering the alleyway, Bai Yu's body teleported back to the base.

"Come to think of it, personally bullying magical girls last time felt pretty good too!"

Walking through the castle, Bai Yu muttered to himself, "It's just a shame that, as the only one in the Monster Organization who can't revive, I can't always go fight magical girls on the front lines myself... Otherwise, there'd definitely be a lot more fun to be had!"

Remembering how he had used threads to control Crimson Blade and torment Xinghua last time, Bai Yu's lips couldn't help curving upward. He had rarely fought magical girls head-on before. This time, in order to lure out Papi, he had personally fought one. The feeling of personally playing with magical girls was pretty nice! He kind of wanted to do it again!

"Isn't there some way for me to go into battle without any risk? Otherwise, even if I'm brave enough, Old Black and the others will worry about me..."

Isn't there any magic like that? Come to think of it, he hadn't visited the library in a long time. He should go look through some books!

With that in mind, Bai Yu headed toward the library. Ever since capturing Meng Yue, he had only been to the library once... After all, his daily time was occupied with raising a cat!

Entering the library, Bai Yu scanned the books lined up on the shelves. He had spent over half a year studying magic circles and nearly another half-year learning forbidden magic. It was time to see if there was anything similar to a cloning spell.

So Bai Yu began flipping through the books on the shelves one by one. Although the library contained many powerful spells, the problem was that there was no search engine at all! He had to flip through every book to find a particular spell, and there was even plenty of irrelevant porn mixed in among them!

The book that had taught him forbidden magic had taken Bai Yu more than half a year to find! He had no idea who had stuffed the library with so many unimportant ordinary books. On top of that, two-thirds of the magic books were completely blank when opened!

Apparently, only by matching the wavelengths of those blank magic books could one see the words written inside. However, Bai Yu had only resonated with one blank magic book so far.

There's more to come. Same as today.

You'd Better Take Responsibility, Okay?~~~

"If only there were magic like a clone spell. Then no matter how much I played around outside, I wouldn't need to worry about my life being in danger."

With that said, Bai Yu began searching through the shelves. This study reserved for the leader of the Monster Organization was terrifyingly huge. Bai Yu had spent over half a year buried in it before, yet he hadn't even gone through half the books on the shelves.

"What's the point of having so many books? You can't take them out, and only the leader can enter the study..."

As he searched for clone magic, Bai Yu grumbled, "How could a normal person learn that many spells? What am I, some professor of magic?"

If Bai Yu hadn't often photographed the contents of magic books and sent them to the organization's group chat, much of the magic in the library would have gone to waste! For example, Black Bear Monster had learned Black Wind Transformation that way. Black Bear Monster possessed wind-element magic power, making it perfectly suited to learn that skill.

Bai Yu's magic power was dark-element, yet absurdly enough, he still hadn't found a single dark-element magic book in the library. Creating magic circles only required magic power as fuel, so it had virtually no requirement for the magic power's element...

"Hm?"

While grumbling inwardly, Bai Yu suddenly saw a scroll fall out of a piece of pornographic trash. He casually picked it up, unrolled it, and looked at its contents...

Split-Body Magic

"That'll do... even if it isn't quite the magic I was expecting."

Sighing, Bai Yu began circulating his magic power according to the method recorded on the scroll. About half an hour later—

Crack!

With a swift swing of his blade, Bai Yu chopped off his own left arm! The severed arm, dripping black blood, fell to the floor. Then it actually began glowing black, swelling and changing shape. Ten seconds later, the arm had forcibly grown into another Bai Yu!

Whoosh!

With a thought from Bai Yu, a fully intact left arm regrew from the stump. As the leader of the Monster Organization, his physical regeneration speed was incredibly fast. His greatest issue was that he would die instantly if his Magic Core was destroyed. If he could solve that problem, he would actually be nearly invincible.

But now, it seemed he might be able to solve that problem...

Looking at the body created from his arm, Bai Yu had a thought... His main body fell straight to the ground, while the previously mindless clone opened its eyes and began sensing the state of its own body.

"The clone has no Magic Core, and the magic power inside it is only one-third of the original... For an ordinary monster, that would probably be a massive weakening."

Bai Yu clenched his fist and smiled. "But it doesn't matter for me. My magical reserves were never high to begin with, and in battle I mostly use magic circles prepared beforehand."

Slash!

Bai Yu swung his blade again, cutting off the clone's arm as well. However, the clone's arm simply turned into black ash-like magical particles and vanished. It didn't fall to the floor and produce another new clone or anything...

Then Bai Yu stabbed the clone in the chest. The entire clone immediately turned into magical particles like the severed arm, flowing back into the main body. Bai Yu's main body then opened its eyes, wearing a deeply satisfied expression.

"It's not a spell where I make a hand sign and suddenly turn into a whole crowd of clones like I imagined, but something is better than nothing."
