Chapter 276

What should I do if I become an ordinary person in the future?

Will the older man still accept her? Will the Magical Girls still accept her...?

Aurora had always harbored this worry.

So she kept thinking that when she had time, she would leave this place alone and not contact anyone. This would be a good thing for everyone and for her.

This is why Aurora's relationship with the Magical Girls has always remained at the level of 'knowing' them.

She never truly became friends with the Magical Girls, so that one day when she left, neither she nor anyone else would be so heartbroken.

Aurora may have originally planned to leave after the spin-off ended, but the ninth episode on Sky Screen may have caused Aurora to misunderstand something, leading her to decide to leave today.

And they left without hesitation, without any delay.

After learning about Aurora's mindset from Kelly, Xiao Bai couldn't help but sigh.

She looked out the window and asked Kelly:

"She left after transforming into Magical Girls?"

"Yes, but since she became Magical Girls through the Emotional Force within the phone, she should be able to deactivate her Magical Girls transformation once she's a certain distance away from the phone."

How far is this distance?

"About... one kilometer?"

Kelly estimated as she spoke.

After all, whether before or after the transformation, Kelly and Aurora were almost inseparable; the furthest distance between them was probably less than fifty meters.

Therefore, Kelly could only rely on her magical senses to make a rough judgment.

"Understood, I'll go find her." Xiao Bai made her decision, picked up Kelly from the table, and turned to leave the room.

She didn't turn on the magic phone, and even turned off the phone in her hand that contained Kelly's clone.

Because Xiao Bai doesn't plan to use this identity to find Aurora.

Now that he's in his teenage form, even if Xiao Bai reverts to his original form, he'll probably just be a little younger; his height and other physical attributes shouldn't be much different.

It's perfect to use your main body to find Aurora.

After all, the person closest to Aurora was Fang Ming, this 'uncle'.

Aurora deactivated her Magical Girls transformation after leaving the wealthy area.

She regained her original appearance and put on the baseball cap that she had prepared beforehand to cover her hair.

The blonde hair she had dyed to conceal her identity has now turned back to red at the roots.

Red background and blonde hair have become Aurora's trademark.

Having lost her magical powers, she has no way to disguise her appearance and can only use a hat to cover her features.

Aurora wanders through the alleyways of the city center.

Fortunately, the city center is relatively safe, Aurora didn't encounter any trouble along the way. If this were in a more outlying area, she probably would have run into a lot of homeless people or gangsters trying to rob her.

"Huff... huff..."

Aurora ran through the alley, deliberately avoiding the security cameras, running aimlessly as if she wanted to exhaust herself.

Finally, perhaps exhausted from running, she slowly sat down against the wall in a corner of an alley.

She buried her face in her knees.

"... I'm so stupid."

Aurora muttered to herself.

She wasn't talking about herself, but about [Aurora] on the Sky Screen. She inexplicably believed a little girl she had only met once, only to have Kelly stolen by the girl, and even watched helplessly as the girl destroyed Kelly.

Aurora felt incredibly stupid in her reflection in the Sky Screen.

But Aurora felt that it was all her fault.

Even though they knew that their phones wouldn't disappear during the transformation, but would just be worn on their waist, they never thought to actually protect themselves from that.

If she had taken precautions beforehand, if she had kept a close eye on Kelly's situation, Rose certainly wouldn't have succeeded.

Kelly on the Sky Screen wouldn't have met such a fate.

"As expected, I'm not cut out to be Magical Girls..."

Aurora thought to herself.

She became a Magical Girls only because of an accident, a coincidence.

Unlike Xiao Qiu and others who became Magical Girls through their own abilities.

Without Kelly, she is nothing.

Aurora had known this for a long time, and she had even considered that one day she might separate from Kelly.

But she never imagined that Kelly would die because of it.

So the Sky Screen is a warning bell for Aurora, telling her Aurora if she doesn't want anything to happen to Kelly, she should leave her as soon as possible.

Giving up everything she has now, and stopping fantasizing about becoming a Magical Girls, and giving that opportunity to someone more suitable... would be a good thing for both her and Kelly.

Aurora is a decisive person.

Even when it came to 'running away,' Aurora was very decisive.

So after the ninth episode ended, Aurora only hesitated for a minute, thought for a minute, and then immediately transformed, turned off her phone, and escaped from the mansion.

This was something she wanted to do all along; now it's just a matter of turning what she 'wanted to do' into what she's 'doing now'.

Actually, Aurora wasn't too sad when she left the mansion.

The only things that bothered Aurora were separating from Kelly and from the older man.

After Harvey died, Kelly was the one who stayed with Aurora.

Whether sleeping, traveling, or going to 'work', Kelly was always by Aurora's side, and Aurora had long been used to Kelly's presence.

Now that they are suddenly separated, Aurora is naturally reluctant to part.

And there's an older man...

The same goes for the older man.

For the past two months, Fang Ming has been taking care of her and showing her concern, just like Harvey.

Although Fang Ming always said that there was a price to pay and that Aurora would have to repay him in the future, Fang Ming never urged Aurora to 'pay back the money'.

Aurora knew that this was just an excuse for him to show concern for her.

In order to make her feel more relaxed and without any psychological burden.

Aurora always remembered Fang Ming's kindness, and the fact that she couldn't say goodbye to the uncle properly this time made Aurora feel a little regretful.

But... maybe this is for the best.

If Aurora were to have a proper farewell with the older man, aside from whether he would agree, Aurora herself would probably be reluctant to leave.

"... That's good."

Aurora muttered to herself.

"I don't think that's a good idea."

"!!!!"

A familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar voice rang out from beside her. Aurora's eyes widened as she looked up and saw Fang Ming, whom she had just been thinking about, standing right in front of her.

"Uncle!?"

Aurora looked at the... boy in front of her in surprise?

She was surprised that the man had found her, and even more surprised by his current appearance. She couldn't help but ask:

"... You... you seem to have gotten younger?"

"Ahem, it's probably just your imagination. Let's not talk about that. Here, take this."

Fang Ming abruptly changed the subject and handed the red phone to Aurora.

No matter how awkward Fang Ming's way of changing the subject was, Aurora was at least drawn to the phone Fang Ming handed her, and stopped caring about how young Fang Ming had become.

She looked down at the red phone Fang Ming handed her.

The phone was still off, and the screen was black, so Kelly couldn't jump out to scold Aurora, which made Aurora feel a little relieved.

But Aurora didn't take the phone. She looked away and said softly:

"... Take it back, sir, I'm not right for her."

"Why?"

"If it's in my hands... in the future... in the future, Little K might still end up like that in the Sky Screen..."

"Did you ask Kelly's opinion?" Fang Ming interrupted Aurora.

Aurora immediately turned to look at Fang Ming.

Fang Ming met her gaze and calmly asked Aurora:

"If you truly consider Kelly a friend, as family, then the decision to 'separate' shouldn't be made unilaterally."

"Do you really think that if you just leave like this and never see Kelly again, Kelly won't be sad?"

"..."

"Aurora, Kelly chose you. You are Kelly's partner. The two of you together make 'Magical Girl Aurora.' To Kelly, you are irreplaceable."

"I'm not --!!"

Aurora suddenly responded loudly, then her voice softened considerably. "I... I'm not 'irreplaceable' at all..."

"I... I'm just... a lucky one who got her by chance... I... I'm completely unsuitable to be Magical Girls! If... if Kelly continues to stay by my side, then what will become of her in the future..."

We may encounter the same things that happen in the Sky Screen again in the future.

At that time, she might lose Kelly forever!

Volume 3 Side Story <Magical Girl Aurora>: Chapter 303 Mara! The Growth Buff Has Expired!!

The thought of losing Kelly grew like wildfire, forcing Aurora to keep Kelly behind and let Kelly find a new partner.

Aurora doesn't consider herself a good partner.

Because of her arrogance and lack of knowledge, she is no match for the other Magical Girls except for her advantage in fighting.

It would be much better for Kelly to go with Xiao Qiu and the others than with Aurora.

Looking at Aurora, who was biting her lip and looking down, Fang Ming calmly repeated the question he had just asked:

Did you ask Kelly for her opinion?

"..."

"Separation is at least a two-way street, right? Even if you really want to leave Kelly, even if you really think you shouldn't become Magical Girls, you should at least make things clear to Kelly."

"A face-to-face, genuine consultation with Kelly, after all... wasn't Kelly the one who brought you into this world in the first place?"

Fang Ming said earnestly.

He then chuckled, stepped forward, forcefully placed the phone in Aurora's hand, and said to her:

"And besides, don't you really want to become Magical Girls?"

Aurora gripped her phone tightly and didn't answer.

Fang Ming continued, "Weren't you happy when you were with everyone? Weren't you happy when you became Magical Girls? That can't be right."

"I... I..."

Aurora's nose was slightly red, and she lowered her head even further, her voice trembling with tears.

She lowered her head, tears streaming down her face, and said in a low voice:

"I...I'm happy...but...but I don't want anything to happen to Kelly! I...I don't want anything to happen to anyone around me, Kelly ...and you, Uncle...I don't want to see anyone I care about disappear from this world!"

"So... that's good... just let me leave, that way... that way Kelly and you won't get hurt... as long as I... if I leave..."
