Does Uncle Know I'm a Magical Girl? / Someone Raided Our Home!
[Lien's memories begin with her escape from the Demons's experimental base.]
Taking advantage of the chaos caused by the uncontrolled magic of Magical Creatures within the Demons base, Lien successfully escaped into a spacetime portal. Among countless worlds, she somehow found a world with a weak World Barrier and fell into it.
Just like when the Black Rabbit Youyou into this world, when Lien fell, she fell like a meteorite.
Unlike when Black Rabbit Youyou was seen by Xiao Bai, Lion Lien fell into this world at night in the Americas District, and there were no Magical Girls there at the time.
Kelly, who was practically one with her phone, was still lying in the secondhand market at the time.
Thus, Lien's tragedy unfolded.
Because she fell into the wilderness, the first to find her were not a girl with magical talent, but a capital group from the Americas District.
The scene begins to fast forward.
Tied to the experimental table and interrogated about her origins, the perpetrators began cutting and stitching up Lien 'Lien body after discovering a peculiar energy reaction within her, attempting to trace the source of the magic.
Because she was the 'only individual', Lien's life was protected.
But the number of experiments conducted during this period was never less.
Fortunately, Lien had undergone cruel experiments with the Demons, so she had developed a certain resistance to experiments conducted by humans in this world.
They thought they had completely controlled Lien, but in reality, Lien was trying to gather strength to escape the laboratory.
Ultimately, during one of their biological experiments, Lien used her last bit of magic to influence the special monster conducting the experiment.
The strange man wreaked havoc within the base, giving Lien time to escape.
With the help of some Suggestion Magic, Lien successfully escaped the experimental base, then disguised herself as a doll and infiltrated the wealthy district, until she met Luna, who possessed the potential to become Magical Girls.
The one-minute-plus recollection ends here.
After calmly recounting her experiences, Lien turned the conversation back to the very beginning, the question of the origins of those monsters.
She said softly:
"They cloned my flesh and blood, and found a special way to replicate magic, which they used to create monsters."
"That's why I say these strange people are, in a sense, my 'children,' because their birth stems from my magic."
"..."
After listening to Lien's story, Luna picked Lien up and held her tightly in her arms.
Kelly looked at Lien with deep heartache. She didn't ask any more questions about the monster, and whispered to Lien:
"Thank you for your hard work, and... I'm so sorry, if we seniors had tried a little harder back then, you wouldn't have been..."
"It's alright, Ms. Kelly." Lien interrupted Kelly's apology, "We all know what happened. You tried your best to give me time to escape. We stayed willingly, which is why we were caught. It's not your fault."
Almost all the Magical Creatures and the Magical Girls who survived at the time chose to fight to the last moment and gave their lives for it.
Lien had no reason to resent them.
She resented the Demons, and the humans of this world who experimented on her.
Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt has its debtor; these are the people she wants to take revenge on.
"You created so many monsters with just a little bit of your magic?"
Just as Kelly and Lien, teacher and student, were about to stage a tragic drama, Xiao Bai's indifferent voice pulled everyone back to reality.
Aurora rolled her eyes at his words: "You should at least read the room before you speak..."
Xiao Bai gave Aurora a strange look. "I didn't know you knew about Eastern Ocean District culture..."
Xiao Bai was simply stating something calmly, but Aurora felt that he was mocking her. Just as she was about to grit her teeth and explode in rebuttal, Lien answered Xiao Bai's question at that moment:
"I told you, I've been transformed."
"Yes, I did."
"Therefore, I still have the demonic power of Demons in my blood, and the demonic power of Demons... is uncontrollable."
In other words, what created the monster was not Lien's positive magical power as Magical Creatures, but rather the negative magical power belonging to Demons.
That's why the monsters created by that group of people lacked reason and were filled with destructive Desire.
If they hadn't possessed certain brainwashing and control techniques, the first thing these weirdos would have done after their emergence would have been to turn against them!
After finishing her sentence, Lien continued, "This is also one of the reasons why Luna and I are looking for their base. The Demons' magic is uncontrollable. If we let them continue like this, who knows if we will attract the Demons here?"
When negative magic accumulates to a certain point, it can easily give birth to powerful Demons.
Powerful Demons could easily shatter the World Barrier and transmit the message.
Lien sought trouble with the Aurora Society for two reasons: revenge and to stop them from going down the wrong path. If they were to create a high-level Demons, the world would be doomed.
"Now the objective is clear." Xiao Bai stood up and said, "The primary objective now is to find those guys' secret base. I've already interrogated them... and they have an organization called the 'Aurora Society' behind them. I will investigate this organization."
"Wait!" Seeing Xiao Bai stand up, Lien immediately called out to her, "You haven't explained your situation yet. Where is Youyou now? Why isn't she with you? Also, you're clearly Magical Girls from the Central Continent District, why are you here?"
The question about Lien has been answered, but the mystery surrounding Xiao Bai remains unsolved.
Lien won't feel at ease until she finds out Xiao Bai's true identity.
"Youyou has other Magical Girls to take care of, and the reason I came to the Americas District is because I saw your photos."
Xiao Bai gave a brief explanation.
The others were all taken aback. "There are other Magical Girls?!"
Aurora's eyes widened as well. "Our photos have been taken!?"
Xiao Bai had no intention of explaining further to them. She said, "I'll introduce the other Magical Girls to you later. Until then, let's take care of your own business first."
Xiao Bai seemed unwilling to discuss the Magical Girls of the Central Continent District with them; after saying that, she turned and left.
Lien didn't call out to Xiao Bai, but Aurora, seeing Xiao Bai leave, quickly got up and chased after her:
"Wait for me! I have something to ask you!"
After saying that, Aurora said to Lien and Luna, "Kelly can create clones in other phones. You two can talk to her later. I have something to do, so I'll be leaving now!"
After saying this, Aurora hurriedly caught up with Xiao Bai.
(Aurora Society... Ha, human scum)
(From Lien's perspective, I think it's understandable that Lien would want to take revenge on all of humanity.)
(But Lien only chose to take revenge on the culprit...)
(How could you bear to bully such cute little animals, and even use them for live experiments, and even humans! Ugh--)
(Where's the Federation? What's the Federation doing? Give it your all!)
(Has the situation in the Americas District already spiraled out of control...?)
(It's said that the Federation has now sent troops to forcibly take over these companies... Oh, and Ellis Industries, Luna's father's company, is also helping.)
(I hope Lien is okay in real life...)
The Aurora Society has now become a global enemy.
Even though they occupy half of the Americas District, they can't stop the whole world from targeting them.
Xiao Bai could already foresee the demise of the Aurora Society in the next few days.
But the more this was the case, the more worried Xiao Bai became.
Don't forget, the Aurora Society also possesses a method to transform ordinary people into monsters.
Although Xiao Bai and Youyou are currently doing their best to set up a barrier in the major city of the Americas District, and have even sought help from Aurora and Xiao Qiu.
But this kind of thing can't be arranged in just a day or two.
Currently, out of the twenty-six cities, only four have successfully set up Magic Barrier.
Four major cities in two days—that's much faster than the speed at which Youyou set up her operations in Spring City.
However, this is still not enough; the protective barriers for twenty-two cities have not yet been completed.
If they anger those people and they choose to spread 'contagious magic' in these twenty-two cities, wanting to destroy the world together, Xiao Bai won't be able to detect their presence immediately.
Therefore, the Federation and Ellis Industries cannot act too quickly; at the very least, they must give those people some hope to prevent them from truly resorting to desperate measures.
"... Youyou, you'll be working overtime through the night for the next few days."
Having established the Aurora Society a public enemy, and fearing that the Aurora Society resort to desperate Xiao Bai, Xiaobai decided to forgo rest for the next few days and quickly set up the barrier.
We need to at least make sure the Aurora Society won't cause any major problems.
Oh, and by the way, let's also see what kind of "trump cards" the Aurora Society prepared during the "lab day trip" after episode 5 ends.
Aurora quickly caught up with Xiao Bai.
Xiao Bai, who had originally intended to disappear from Aurora's sight, couldn't help but ask when she saw Aurora chasing after her:
"What's up?"
"... Are you the uncle's sister?"
Aurora asked the question that had been puzzling her all night.
Xiao Bai nodded gently. "If the 'uncle' you're talking about is Fang Ming, then I am indeed his sister."
"Liar! Although I don't know much about Central Continent District, the uncle's surname is Fang, and yours is Yuan. How could you possibly be his biological sister!"
"It's very simple, 'Yuan Bai' is an alias."
"They actually admitted it!!"
Aurora's eyes widened in disbelief. She hadn't expected Xiao Bai to use a pseudonym, and she certainly hadn't expected Xiao Bai to be so open about it!
Xiao Bai said nonchalantly, "So what if I admit it? If you want me to reveal my real name, I'm sorry, that's impossible."
"..." Aurora at Xiao Bai without saying a word.
"Is there anything else?" Xiao Bai then asked.
Aurora stopped worrying about the name and asked Xiao Bai:
"Does the old man... know that you're Magical Girls?"
"I know," Xiao Bai answered almost without hesitation.
Aurora clenched her fists involuntarily, and said in a low voice:
"That uncle was willing to teach me martial arts because... because I'm Magical Girls?"
Upon hearing this question, Xiao Bai's gaze sharpened considerably.
She finally understood why Aurora had chased after her, and why she had asked that question.
Chapter 242 Someone's Stealing My Home!
The two seemed to freeze, remaining silent for a long time.
Xiao Bai scrutinized Aurora carefully, then suddenly asked:
Is this question important?
"..."
Aurora couldn't answer.
At this moment, Xiao Bai decisively said, "He does know that you are Magical Girls."
"!"
"But that was after we met."
After saying this, the silver-haired girl turned and left, quickly disappearing around the street corner.
Aurora remained where she was, recalling the silver-haired girl's earlier answer.
Fang Ming agreed to teach her martial arts before she met Xiao Bai. In that sense, at least before he knew she was Magical Girls, Fang Ming already had the idea of helping her.
For some reason, Aurora felt relieved upon learning this.
She didn't actually care whether Fang Ming knew she was Magical Girls, but she did care whether Fang Ming had a ulterior motive in approaching her.
Now that she knew Fang Ming had no ulterior motives in approaching her, Aurora felt a peculiar emotion welling up inside her.
She didn't understand what that feeling was, but it was very warm.
