A Little Payback

Fortunately, the group knew how to restrain themselves and didn't actually crowd around Xiao Qiu to take photos and get autographs. They just watched from the sidelines, cheering while their cameras rang incessantly.

Xiao Qiu scratched her head sheepishly, then remembered something, put the blue-haired girl down, and at the same time lowered the truck that was hanging there.

"Are you alright?" Xiao Qiu asked the blue-haired girl who had been put down.

The blue-haired girl with gold-rimmed glasses smiled gently and said to Xiao Qiu:

"I'm alright, thank you for saving me."

The girl's expression seemed very gentle, and her voice was also very mild, giving people the feeling of a well-educated and refined young lady.

Just like Xiao Chun.

Hearing the girl's thanks, Xiao Qiu felt a chill for some reason. Looking into the girl's seemingly gentle but actually lifeless blue eyes, she cautiously asked:

"... You... you're really alright? Wait, I feel like I've seen this somewhere before..."

"I'm really alright, Miss Yu Muqiu, thank you for saving me."

The girl smiled gently again and said to Xiao Qiu.

But when Xiao Qiu met the girl's gaze, she was startled.

She instinctively took two steps back, distancing herself from the girl, before realizing her behavior was impolite. Just as she was about to say something more to the girl, she suddenly heard shouts from behind:

"Young Miss!! Young Miss Luna!! So you were here all along... Wait, Young Miss, don't run away!"

Huh? Who? Luna?

I remember another Magical Girls's name was...

Yu Muqiu blinked and subconsciously turned around to look behind him, only to see a group of bodyguards pushing through the crowd and rushing towards them.

When Yu Muqiu realized what was happening and tried to find the blue-haired girl again, he discovered that she had already vanished into the crowd, leaving only her back view.

"?"

So... what exactly is going on here??

"So, Xiao Qiu, you saw Luna?"

As evening fell, the Magical Girls reunited at the villa. Chen Xiaoxia asked Xiao Qiu in surprise, "What did she look like before she transformed? Why couldn't you keep her here, Xiao Qiu?"

"Um... I... I was scared by her."

Yu Muqiu said in a low voice.

"?" Murong Xiaochun looked at him with a puzzled expression. "You were scared by her? She pointed a gun at you too?"

"Uh... no, she smiled at me..."

"??"

Xiaoxia and Xiao Chun, and even Song Niandong who was watching anime on her tablet, all looked up at Xiao Qiu at the same time.

Laugh?

You mean, that aloof Magical Girls on the Sky Screen, who didn't say a single word from her appearance to the end, and who seemed as cold as Xiao Bai, smiled at you?

Thinking of this, Chen Xiaoxia unconsciously replaced the person Xiao Qiu was referring to with Xiao Bai.

Thinking of Xiao Bai, whom she had just met, who had inexplicably smiled at her, Chen Xiaoxia couldn't help but shudder.

She muttered to herself, "... That does seem pretty scary."

Yu Muqiu explained again, "Although she smiled very gently, but... but I... I feel like she wasn't really smiling."

Yu Muqiu was able to sense to some extent whether a person was happy or not.

Although this feeling wasn't entirely accurate, at least in this matter, Yu Muqiu felt that his judgment was correct.

The Magical Girls named Luna, when in her true form, appears to be smiling, but in reality, she gives off a feeling that keeps strangers at bay.

Just like Xiao Bai... no, even colder than Xiao Bai!

Yu Muqiu sensed this and instinctively retreated, thus losing the opportunity to seize the opportunity to grab the other party.

"... What do you mean 'not really laughing'? What are you talking about?"

While the Magical Girls were talking, Aurora had already returned to the villa.

Having just overheard Xiao Qiu's last words, she asked the others in surprise.

Xiao Qiu and the others all looked at Aurora. Chen Xiaoxia didn't intend to hide anything and said directly, "I'm talking about that blue Magical Girls. Xiao Qiu saw her today."

"Oh."

"Your reaction is a bit lukewarm..."

Chen Xiaoxia winked at Aurora.

Aurora said nonchalantly, "So what if I saw her? I've seen her before, haven't I?"

That's true...

The Magical Girls didn't know what to say.

Suddenly, Xiao Chun seemed to notice something. She looked behind Aurora and, finding no one else there, couldn't help but ask Aurora:

"Wait, why are you alone? Where are Xiao Bai and Youyou?"

"They said they had some things to do, so I came back first."

Aurora answered, then waved to the others, saying, "Alright, you guys continue chatting, I'm going back to my room. I'm exhausted today..."

She shook her head and moved her arms as if she had done a lot of physical work that day, as she walked towards her bedroom.

The Magical Girls behind them were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

Chapter 210 A Small Revenge

Under the cover of night, above the sky.

Standing outside the Blue Star, Xiao Bai gazes straight into the distance.

On the outer reaches of Blue Star, several artificial satellites are drifting along predetermined routes in their orbits.

Xiao Bai's gaze was fixed on one of them, twirling the sickle in her hand, her fingers clenched tightly.

"... Are you really going to do this?"

Kelly's clone Telepathy to Xiao Bai through the phone, saying, "I can use Data Magic to erase your information from the satellite, ensuring that what happened today will not happen again, so you don't need to provoke them."

"Them? The higher-ups of this world?"

Xiao Bai.

Kelly sighed:

"Magical Girls are ultimately a minority in their respective worlds, so our guiding principle is to hide ourselves and eliminate Demons and various mutated monsters from the world without interfering with the current course of world history."

"In the few worlds that are aware of the existence of Magical Girls, we establish cooperative relationships, after all... this is ultimately your homeland."

After the Magical Girls was born, the Magical Creatures advised her to keep her secret from ordinary people.

Once this becomes known to ordinary people, the Magical Creatures's advice is to establish a good working relationship with local official organizations.

After all, from a practical point of view, the Magical Girls' home world is ultimately their own world, and breaking with their current world would bring them no benefit whatsoever.

It's rare for Magical Girls to actually choose to be an enemy of the entire world.

Xiao Bai's actions at this moment could potentially strain the relationship between the Magical Girls and the local official organization.

This is something Kelly didn't want to see.

Kelly has discovered that Xiao Bai's thoughts are somewhat... dark. Perhaps due to the influence of the Magic Source, her actions are rather radical, and she even has some serious self-destructive tendencies.

This can be seen from her previous conversations.

The more this was the case, the less Kelly wanted Xiao Bai to really fall out with the people of the world.

She worried that Xiao Bai would sink deeper into darkness, until she walked down a path of no return.

But if Xiao Bai listened to advice, she wouldn't be Xiao Bai.

"I just wanted to teach those people a lesson."

Xiao Bai spoke indifferently.

She knew, of course, that doing this would further strain the relationship between the Magical Girls and the world's authorities.

But everything Xiao Bai had done before had already strained his relationship with the authorities, so adding another layer of tension now wouldn't matter.

Perfect, this way everyone in the world can focus all their attention on Xiao Bai.

Moreover, now, through the projection on the Sky Screen, everyone knows that Xiao Bai's identity is different from that of a traditional Magical Girls.

My magic comes from the Demons, so what's wrong with being a little aggressive in my methods?

You're unwilling?

You'll have to put up with it whether you want to or not!

That's why Xiao Bai is standing here.

When the satellite that had taken the photos and tracked down Xiao Bai and Aurora came into view, Xiao Bai raised his scythe without hesitation.

With a flash of silver light, the satellite was reduced to fragments and debris, drifting in space.

Looking at the space debris floating behind him, Xiao Bai retracted his scythe and landed towards the Americas District.

Back on the ground, gazing at the night sky, Xiao Bai asked Kelly and Youyou:

"How's your research on the Mutant Magic coming along?"

"Um..."

Youyou finally popped her head out and said, "This magic power is different from the traditional Magic Source for Demons. Some of it contains the abilities of Magical Creatures... Is it from Lien?"

"It seems that Lien was studied by this group before," Kelly replied, her tone turning cold as she said this.

Although Kelly didn't want Xiao Bai to be at odds with the human organizations in this world, the group of guys who were studying Lien's body were clearly no longer human.

Now that the truth about Magical Girls and Demons has been exposed in the Sky Screen, everyone knows that Magical Girls who have made contracts with Magical Creatures are humanity's hope!

But when these people obtained the Magical Creatures, instead of thinking about pairing her with a suitable girl, they wanted to study her body!

This kind of thing is quite rare, considering all the 'human traitor organizations' around the world.

Kelly now desperately wants Xiao Bai to destroy all these bases, but unfortunately, these people are too cautious. Even with today's attack, they only exposed two secret bases.

It's not an important base yet.

The true mastermind behind this organization is still hiding, which is both infuriating and unsettling.

Xiao Bai and Kelly felt the same way; otherwise, she wouldn't have committed murder today.

But at this moment, she was more concerned with the Mutant Magic.

Taking out the potion, Xiao Bai asked Youyou and Kelly:

"Will there be a problem if I absorb the magic power inside now?"

"Don't!"

"Stop!!"

Seeing that Xiao Bai was interested in the magic in the potion, Youyou and Kelly spoke up almost in unison to dissuade him.

Xiao Bai looked up at Youyou, then turned to Kelly on her phone, and whispered:

"I was just asking; I don't have any intention of absorbing the magic within."

"Call..."

Youyou breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. I haven't figured out the real side effects of this magic injection yet, so for your own safety, let's wait a while before making any decisions."

"... That's right, Yuan Bai. Although I don't quite understand why you crave power so much, for the sake of the other Magical Girls, I hope you can... you can take better care of yourself."

Kelly also offered her advice.

"... If I cherish myself, can I make the Demons disappear?" Xiao Bai remained silent for a long time before looking up and asking.

Kelly remained silent.

Xiao Bai continued, "If I value my own life, would I be able to make the Demon King commit suicide?"
