The Crocodile Brotherhood's Interference

Just after Aurora jumped away, on a signal tower further away, Magical Girls with short blue hair stood there, staring at the direction Aurora had gone, along with the lion doll beside her.

Neither of them spoke, and finally, after a scene transitioned to the sound of an airplane engine, the person and the doll disappeared.

Then, music started playing, and the first episode ended.

(Battle! So exhilarating!!)

(The battle scenes in this side story seem to be much bloodier than those in the main story!)

(I must say, the pink blood actually looks quite artistic, and every frame of Aurora's punch just now was high-budget!)

(If you don't understand, is this some kind of action-packed anime I'm watching?)

(This is the Kamen Rider!)

(666, they're not even going to act anymore)

(No, Aurora, why are you running away! Those damn gangsters are like pests, you could just punch them all to death!)

(Bro, you mean, you want Magical Girls to kill people?)

(So what!)

Some viewers criticized Aurora's behavior of turning and running away.

Having mastered such immense power, why fear ordinary people? Just smash them all to death with a single punch, like when we killed that Shell Monster.

The person who said this must be from the Americas District, or a resident where there are local gangs.

They had no sympathy for these gangs that oppressed ordinary people, and their first thought upon gaining power was to kill them all.

But there was one sentence above that Fang Ming agreed with.

Magical Girls represents justice and hope is indeed not suited to kill with her own hands.

Besides, given the current reality, these gangs 'named' by Sky Screen probably won't last much longer.

After the first episode ends, there's the ending theme of the spin-off.

Compared to the opening theme, which is so exciting it feels like a battle anime, the ending theme does have a bit of Magical Girls vibe.

The first half of the ending sequence begins with the cell phone where Little K is staying, and then quickly shifts the perspective to Aurora amidst a burst of upbeat music.

The first half of the entire ending theme consists of various interludes about Aurora.

There are scenes of Aurora waking up, scenes of her graffitiing in the streets and alleys, and scenes of her fighting with thugs.

Then, in the middle section, all the illustrations become animated, with Aurora standing in a downpour, her feet on the water reflecting the gloomy sky.

Aurora stood right in the middle of the water.

But this gloom didn't last long. As the music reached its climax, raindrops fell on the water's surface, reflecting the gloomy sky. Then, centered on these ripples, all the gloom transformed into a clear sky.

To the accompaniment of cheerful music, Aurora runs across the water, the silhouettes of supporting characters flashing past on either side of her.

Harvey, Kelly, Fang Ming... appear on the left... while the blue Magical Girls, lion doll, and Xiao Bai appear on the right.

As the race came to a close and the music faded, Aurora finally stopped. Off-screen, someone reached out a hand to her.

Looking at the hand, she smiled brightly and happily, and without hesitation, grasped it tightly. As the final notes of the ending theme faded, the screen panned upwards, and the video ended.

(The ending theme seems to be a one-woman show for Aurora.)

(Where's Xiao Qiu? Where's Xiao Qiu? Where's Xiao Qiu?)

(www Xiao Qiu and the others were just making cameo appearances in the spin-off, how could they possibly appear in the ending theme?)

(Waaaaah, no! My Xiao Qiu! Xiaoxia! and Xiao Chun!!)

(What do you mean "yours"?! Xiao Qiu and the others are mine!)

(Wake up, everyone, stop dreaming!)

(By the way, whose hand is that at the end? Because the ending theme is an anime version, I didn't recognize it.)

(... I'm not sure, but judging from the hand shape, it's probably a man's hand...)

Yeah, who is it? It's so hard to guess.

Fang Ming couldn't help but look down at his hands.

Although the ending theme is a 2D version, Fang Ming could still guess that the hand that grabbed Aurora at the end must be his.

Thinking about it carefully, all the male characters who appeared in the entire spin-off were either dead or villains. So who would be the one to develop a close relationship with Aurora in the end and actually pull her away?

Then think about it, who else could be a male character with such a large role in the spin-off, almost like a main character?

Even using the process of elimination, you could guess it!

"..."

Fang Ming wasn't the only one who guessed the identity of the last hand; Xiao Chun, who was already quite clever, was also among them.

She couldn't help but secretly click her tongue when she recalled Aurora's happy and energetic smile as she held that hand at the end of the ending theme.

The thing she feared most has happened!

Aurora definitely has feelings for Fang Ming! It's even quite possible that in the spin-off, Fang Ming will be her male lead!

Thinking about this, Xiao Chun couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.

Having her own personal spin-off is one thing, but to make Fang Ming the male lead in her own series is truly enviable... and utterly despicable!

Xiao Chun gritted her teeth inwardly, but when she turned her head, she saw that Fang Ming had already left her side.

She was slightly startled, and immediately chased after him to ask:

"Brother Fang Ming, where are you going?"

"Ah, I'll go back to Aurora first and help her find a new place to live; her warehouse is no longer habitable."

Fang Ming and Xiao Chun said.

When the spin-off trailer was released earlier, Fang Ming guessed that Aurora's 'secret base' might be exposed by the Sky Screen.

From that time on, he began looking for a new place for Aurora to live.

However, since the Sky Screen hadn't started yet and Aurora didn't seem too keen on leaving, Fang Ming didn't say anything more.

But now, Fang Ming sees himself sitting on the sofa in Aurora's warehouse in the opening sequence, which proves that Aurora will move to her 'new home' as early as the second episode or at the latest the third episode.

To avoid disturbing Aurora, moving is imperative!

Chapter 195 The Crocodile Brotherhood's Obstruction

N City is divided into several districts, totaling sixteen, each with its own economic and administrative center.

The area where Aurora previously lived was a slum in N City. Although it had an economic center, it was insignificant compared to other areas.

For Aurora's physical and mental well-being, Fang Ming plans to buy a house in the central area of N City for Aurora to live in temporarily.

Aurora didn't react much to this; to her, it made no difference whether she lived here or in the city center, since both places were unfamiliar.

As long as Fang Ming is willing to teach Aurora fighting techniques, it doesn't matter where they go.

The move was actually quite simple. Aurora didn't have many personal belongings; everything here was a gift from the Skoll Gang members who occupied this area.

Therefore, Aurora only needs to take a few personal belongings; she doesn't need Western Capital else.

So in the end, Aurora simply left with a large suitcase, getting into the car with Fang Ming to head to their new home.

In the car, Fang Ming sat in the driver's seat, while Aurora sat in the back, typing and talking to Kelly on her phone.

Kelly was doing most of the talking, with Aurora responding occasionally.

"There's no harm in interacting with the other Magical Girls. Besides, we've learned about their personalities through the Sky Screen. They're not bad kids, so why are you so resistant?"

Kelly asked Aurora a question.

Several other Magical Girls had originally planned to help with today's move, but Aurora ultimately declined.

Although Aurora is a 'fan' of these Magical Girls, Aurora doesn't really like these 'idols' who are actually close to her.

She always felt out of place with those Magical Girls.

She was like a weed growing in a garbage dump, unworthy to touch a carefully cultivated flower.

"... I'm different from them."

Aurora told Kelly, "They are the real Magical Girls. I'm just a fake, Magical Girls who only became one by borrowing your power."

This is also what Aurora is worried about.

Her power comes from the magical core that Kelly left in her phone.

Once she loses Kelly, Aurora will become just an ordinary person with slightly greater strength.

She didn't know how much longer she could be Magical Girls. Even though the Sky Screen had already revealed her as the protagonist's 'side story', Aurora still felt that she wasn't a qualified Magical Girls.

Aurora, who hadn't received much formal education, didn't understand the difference between the main story and the spin-offs. But no matter what, a fake is a fake, and a counterfeit can never be the real thing.

"They won't care about any of that..." Kelly said helplessly.

Aurora was typing with a bit too much pressure:

"But I care!"

Aurora knew, of course, that the Magical Girls wouldn't care whether she was real or not. Having watched both seasons of the main series, she knew very well that these Magical Girls wouldn't reject her and would treat her as a companion.

Did Song Niandong, whose identity hadn't been revealed in the second season, get taken in by Xiao Qiu and the others as companions?

But just because they don't care doesn't mean Aurora doesn't care.

People will eventually leave.

Just like her parents, just like Harvey.

Even if the Magical Girls are willing to accept her, if Aurora loses her ability to transform one day, can she still stay by their side?

At that point, given Aurora's pride, even if Xiao Qiu and the others didn't say anything, Aurora would choose to leave on her own initiative.

At that time, the Pain of separation will be even more heart-wrenching.

Aurora didn't like that.

Therefore, rather than developing deep feelings for each other in the future and then parting ways, it's better not to have any contact at all in the first place.

"What about Fang Ming?" Kelly asked again.

Aurora looked up at Fang Ming, who was driving, and typed more lightly:

"... This older man is just my coach. Once I've learned his fighting techniques, I'll leave on my own."

Whether it's because she became Magical Girls or because Aurora's 'Passion' magic is very effective in her studies, Aurora's progress in learning martial arts is quite outstanding.

In less than two months, she had already learned a lot of fighting techniques from Fang Ming: martial arts and jujitsu from the Central Continent District, Karate and karate from the Eastern Ocean District, Kickboxing, Sanda, and Western swordsmanship from the Americas District and Nordic District...

Fang Ming was truly teaching Aurora everything he knew.

Aurora truly worked hard to learn everything she could. To this day, Aurora dares to say that even without transforming, she could take down more than a dozen unarmed gang members.

Therefore, Aurora is truly grateful to Fang Ming in this regard and regards him as her teacher.

But...

Aurora, however, had no intention of living with Fang Ming.

She dislikes parting, especially parting after a deep and lasting relationship.

Therefore, Aurora needs to learn all the fighting techniques Fang Ming possesses before she completely succumbs to him, and then... leave him!

I absolutely cannot end up like myself in the Sky Screen credits, clinging to Fang Ming's body and wailing in impotent rage.

... By the way, I hope the old man in the Sky Screen will be alright?

Aurora was lost in her fantasies, and Kelly stopped trying to dissuade her.

She disappeared from Aurora's screen, and no one knows what she did.

Aurora sat in the back seat, gazing at the increasingly bustling scenery outside the window, her eyes growing more and more lost in thought.

Sizzle--

The sudden braking snapped Aurora out of her reverie, and she immediately turned towards the driver's seat, expressing her dissatisfaction:
