Volume 1: Chapter 93: The Magical Girl Image Completely Collapses!

"Would you be interested in telling me more about the people you want revenge on? Meng Yue only knew the general idea of your revenge. She didn't know exactly who you wanted to take revenge on."

At that moment, Bai Yu pressed the remote in his hand. The Canine Mecha on Xinghua gradually disappeared, replaced by a palm-sized black cube hanging at the center of her collar. It felt as though the entire set of armor had been stored inside that cube.

After all, wearing a full suit of black canine armor didn't exactly make for a comfortable conversation. To create a better atmosphere, Bai Yu had even brought Xinghua a chair, and the two sat facing each other...

"Hmph... Just because I'm not interested in talking, you think that means you won't make me?"

Sitting in her dark school-swimsuit dog-girl outfit, Xinghua sneered. "You could just order me to talk. Wouldn't that be better?"

"You're right... That really does suit you better."

So Bai Yu immediately took Xinghua's suggestion and said in a commanding tone, "Then I order you to tell your master every last detail about your revenge!"

"Hmph~~~ That does sound much better. A lot less hypocritical~~~"

Xinghua raised her chin, looking pleased. Only then did she say, "I want revenge on my biological parents, my adoptive parents and their whole family, and that hateful Contract Spirit, Papi!"

"You and your sister were sold by your biological parents, right?"

"Huh?"

Xinghua looked surprised at Bai Yu's words. "I haven't even said much yet... How did you know?"

"I could tell it was probably that kind of story. I come across this sort of thing quite often."

With his hands folded together, Bai Yu said softly, "Go on."

"If they had truly sold us because they couldn't afford to raise us, I wouldn't hate them that much, but..."

Gritting her teeth, Xinghua said darkly, "They were broke because they were addicted to gambling. Whenever they lost, they took their resentment out on Xiao Nai and me, beating and kicking us... They even made us beg on the streets..."

To be honest, Bai Yu had heard this sort of thing far too many times, so he felt little emotional reaction. He simply listened calmly as Xinghua vented about all the crimes her biological parents had committed...

Then she spoke of her adoptive parents, who had treated her like a slave and servant. They had originally wanted to buy a boy, but failed to get one, so they took out their resentment on Xinghua instead. They never let her attend school and made her work as a servant every day. If they weren't satisfied with her service, she wouldn't get food...

"Later, I escaped. They're probably still looking for me even now."

After a moment of silence, Xinghua continued, "Then I was lucky enough to meet Xiao Nai. Her adoptive parents treated her badly too, so she ran away to find me... Then we met in this city."

"I see... And you hate Papi because it deceived you and forced you to protect humans you never wanted to protect, right?"

"That's right... It was already good enough that I wasn't going around causing destruction. Once I found Xiao Nai, I just wanted to live peacefully for the rest of my life..."

Hatred seeped into her voice as Xinghua said fiercely, "That hateful stuffed toy came and shattered all that peace! It gave me hope first, made me think I could get revenge, then crushed that hope with its own hands! It threatened me with my weakness... and dragged Xiao Nai into becoming a Magical Girl too, so our lives could never be peaceful again!"

"I understand the general idea, but there's one problem."

Bai Yu suddenly asked with interest, "Taking revenge on your parents and adoptive parents won't be difficult. But how do you plan to take revenge on Papi? Even if you obtain Beast Power, you still won't be able to do anything to it, will you?"

"Doesn't it have a real body? I—"

"No, no. Monster Leaders throughout the generations spent more than a decade searching and never found where its real body was. And even if you found it and killed it, that would be far in the future. Are you willing to just wait until then?"

"I..."

Hearing that, Xinghua immediately felt unwilling... She frowned and asked, "Could it be that you, Mr. Monster Leader, have a way to get revenge on it right now?"

"Call me Master."

"Master."

Xinghua answered without hesitation. She had called him Master so many times over the past few days, intentionally or otherwise. One more time made no difference...

"Let me tell you a secret. Actually... Papi cares enormously about the reputation and image of Magical Girls."

Bai Yu said, "You probably know that the Monster Organization exists to gather negative energy. But Papi is doing something similar. It should be collecting something like Faith Energy."

"Faith Energy?"

Xinghua blinked. Thinking back to her time with Papi, it really had placed tremendous importance on the image and reputation of Magical Girls!

"It even has connections with the official Blue Star Knights' Order and has the official media work hard to shape a positive image for Magical Girls."

Bai Yu continued, "That's why I'm probably the Monster Leader it hates most! Quite a few people support what I'm doing, and those people definitely won't like Magical Girls. If more and more people like that emerge in the future, it'll have a major impact on the reputation and image of Magical Girls!"

"No wonder it always looked like it wanted to kill you!"

At that moment, Xinghua finally understood why Papi always acted as though Bai Yu had dug up its ancestors' graves! So that was it... No wonder Papi hated Bai Yu so much!

"After all, the previous Monster Leaders mostly just wreaked havoc. Papi loved that kind of Monster Leader, because only then would Magical Girls win the support of the entire public when they defeated monsters!"

Bai Yu spread his hands helplessly. "But now? The Monster Organization wiped out a criminal organization, and then Magical Girls went to rescue the criminals? Luckily, the official media helped conceal the identities of the dead. Otherwise, the Magical Girls' image would've been ruined long ago!"

"But after saying all that..."

Frowning, Xinghua asked in confusion, "What does any of this have to do with my revenge?"

"Li Li, you're really slow. Did you forget that you're a Magical Girl too?"

Bai Yu smiled and reminded her, "Right now, both Meng Yue and you can turn back into Magical Girls. Think about it... If Magical Girls transformed into monsters or Magical Beasts in public, how badly would that affect their reputation and image?"

PS: Sorry, I miscounted the chapters earlier and thought I was almost done, so I went to sleep for a while. I didn't expect to still be one chapter short! I'll make it up later and count it as yesterday's update. That should be okay, right? (Feeling guilty.)

Volume 1: Chapter 94: You've Fallen So Far~~~

Magical Girls... transforming into monsters or Magical Beasts in public?

The instant she heard those words, Xinghua inexplicably felt her chest grow hot. An indescribable itch made her breathing quicken...

"Interested?"

Bai Yu's voice came from beside her ear. Xinghua nodded with unfocused eyes... but then seemed to suddenly realize something and began shaking her head.

"No! If Xiao Nai finds out... she'll be heartbroken."

Her tone darkened as Xinghua said quietly, "If she finds out her sister has fallen into a monster, she'll break down!"

"You can't suppress your true feelings for your sister's sake for your entire life, can you?"

Bai Yu's voice carried a seductive edge. "Would you really be content with that? If you truly followed your sister's wishes, you wouldn't be able to do anything you want to do now. Do you really want to spend your whole life playing the role of a righteous big sister in front of her?"

"But... she'll be disappointed in me..."

Rubbing her dog paws together, Xinghua whispered, "If she finds out that her sister stands against humanity, I don't even dare imagine the look she'll give me—"

"Why don't you think about changing her instead?"

Bai Yu interrupted her. "Why do you always think about changing yourself for your sister, instead of changing her for your own happiness? Do you really think her mindset, where she even wants to save human traffickers, is correct?"

"O-Of course not! I already told her not to be so proactive! Even if Papi has us under its control, we can still halfheartedly carry out missions like that..."

Xinghua immediately replied, "But she won't listen! She insists on carrying out the justice in her mind with everything she has. She thinks that protecting humans as a human is incomparable justice! She thinks that no matter how evil humans are, it isn't up to monsters to punish them! She believed Papi when it said monsters were evil, and she thinks she's gradually becoming a hero—"

"I see. Then just make her fall too."

Bai Yu answered casually, as if it were an incredibly simple matter. "Look at Meng Yue. How long has it been, and she's already become like this? One day, I'll make Crimson Blade acknowledge you too, so there's no need for you to suppress your true feelings for her sake!"

There was no need to suppress her true feelings...

When Xinghua heard that, she suddenly felt touched. That hateful Papi had always forced her to suppress herself, and even her most important little sister had invisibly forced her to do the same. It could be said that when she had been a Magical Girl, she had actually been deeply unhappy every single day!

But now, someone was telling her that she didn't need to suppress herself... Xinghua looked toward the Monster Leader, and an inexplicable thought surfaced in her heart: Come to think of it, the Monster Leader isn't human either, right? As long as he isn't human, maybe I can give it a try...

"Besides, you've been gone for so long... Papi might already think you've defected. After all, it's always thought you had a rebellious streak!"

At that moment, Xinghua heard Bai Yu say, "I'd guess it has probably already told your sister your secret. Maybe, to awaken your sister's fighting spirit... it might have even spread rumors that you're dead!"

"And whose fault is that? If you hadn't captured me, none of this would've happened!"

Although Xinghua sounded like she was blaming him, there was no real blame in her tone at all. "And I was already thinking of talking to you then. Who would've thought you'd ignore the usual routine and capture me directly..."

"What I mean is, your sister has probably already found out what kind of person you are. So there's no point hiding it anymore."

Bai Yu continued to tempt her. "Since that's the case, why not reveal it to her? It'll be a perfect chance to let her see her own sister's true side!"

"You make it sound so easy..."

Her face reddened as Xinghua muttered softly, "Even if it can work in theory... wouldn't it be embarrassing to show your real side in front of your little sister? It's like how most people don't dare let their family know what they're like online—"

"Isn't that simple?"

Before Xinghua could finish, Bai Yu smiled. "I can just make you lose your sense of shame in front of your sister."

"Huh?? Can... can something like that actually be done?!"

The instant she heard that, it was as if some kind of switch had been flipped inside Xinghua! She visibly grew excited. The Beast Core's corruption reached 49% at that instant, and even her eyes began to shine with icy blue light!

Oh ho~~~ She's fallen quite thoroughly!

Thinking that, Bai Yu smiled and answered, "Of course. Haven't you already seen all sorts of my methods?"

That was true~~~ Whether it was the Strong Doll Potion or the Hypnosis Blindfold, this guy had completely had her in his grasp! Even if he came up with a way to erase her sense of shame now, Xinghua wouldn't be the slightest bit surprised!

"If... if that's really the case..."

Her shoulders trembled uncontrollably. Xinghua simply could not resist the temptation Bai Yu had placed before her. Blushing, she murmured softly, "You can let me get revenge... let me trample the reputation of Magical Girls like this... and even let me show my true side before my little sister without restraint... If it's you, then even if you make me obey like a dog... that's fine..."

"What? You don't like dogs anymore?"

Bai Yu casually pressed a hand on Xinghua's little head and teased, "Didn't you say you would never change your heart toward dogs, no matter what?"

"Even though I'm unwilling to admit it..."

Her lips trembling, Xinghua said softly, "Your usefulness as the Monster Leader... really is far greater than a dog's..."

"And don't think I don't know that your love for dogs was one-sided. Not a single dog has ever responded to you! So far, every dog has run away the moment it sees you. They haven't given you the slightest chance!"

After rubbing Xinghua's head for a while, Bai Yu stroked her soft lips with his fingers and gently persuaded her, "Li Li, take my advice. Being a simp is never good, no matter when. And you're even trying to be a simp for dogs!"

Damn it... Why did what this guy said make so much sense?

Looking at the Monster Leader, who was becoming more and more pleasing to the eye, Xinghua couldn't help rubbing her legs together as she thought secretly: Could it be because his hypnosis hasn't worn off yet? After all, even if I choose to obey him from now on, that doesn't necessarily mean I can let go of my feelings for dogs so easily—

Huh? Feelings from the past? My feelings for dogs have already become a thing of the past? It seems that now... I really don't care that much about dogs anymore.

6/6 Okay, I'm done! Wait for tonight's update!

Volume 1: Chapter 95: I'm Really Looking Forward to It~

The Monster Leader really was amazing. I hadn't believed it before... but in only a few days, he had actually weakened my feelings for dogs to this extent.

"Anyway, for the next few days, focus on developing the Beast Power inside your body."

Bai Yu said, "Once you can skillfully wield Beast Power, you can go get revenge. I'll also send people to investigate your biological and adoptive parents..."

"As long as I train for combat in the way dogs do, I'll be able to control the Beast Power in my body one day, right?"

"That's right in theory. But if you want to completely master Beast Power, your heart will probably need to fall once more."

Bai Yu replied, "For example, Meng Yue completely transformed into a monster when she went to take revenge on her classmate. I estimate that when you seek revenge on your parents, both your body and mind will undergo another transformation."

"That really is... something to look forward to~~~"

Speaking with a hint of infatuation, Xinghua then asked, "Come to think of it, how do you plan to make my little sister fall too?"

"I haven't figured that out yet... Besides, the most urgent person to corrupt lately isn't your little sister."

After thinking for a moment, Bai Yu said carelessly, "Besides, with your sister, I'd say you falling into the Monster Organization will be enough to make her question everything. When the time comes, you can just guide her a little. Why worry that she won't fall?"

In the basement, the door of a capsule chamber opened. A thick, stubby arm reached out from within and gripped the edge of the chamber, followed by an enormous shark head emerging from inside.

"Congratulations on your resurrection."

Watching the Shark Man step out of the capsule chamber, the Stone Man in a white lab coat spoke with practiced familiarity. "The Leader wants you in the conference hall to report what happened when you died."

"The Leader..."

Hearing that, the Shark Monster nodded. Then it asked curiously, "How has he been lately? I remember the Demon Crocodile Executive and the White Horse Cadre said they were going to force him to change..."
