Chapter 426
Why would Pillar-Tier Demon say that?
Fang Ming's curiosity was piqued by the scene unfolding on the Sky Screen. He sat up straighter and watched intently as it developed.
Unfortunately, the story didn't pick up where the opening sequence left off.
The opening theme for episode 9 is slightly different from the opening themes of the previous episodes.
Previously, when the opening sequence gave a close-up of Xiao Bai, only a black silhouette was visible in the full-length mirror next to Xiao Bai.
In this opening sequence, Fang Ming's true appearance is revealed in the full-length mirror next to Xiao Bai.
This definitively confirms Xiao Bai's true identity!
Apart from that, there weren't many other major changes to the OP.
After the opening sequence ends, the story does not continue from where it began.
Instead, they focused their attention on the hospital.
The slightly blurry visuals prove that this is a memory, and the accompanying narration also confirms this.
The narrator's voice is Fang Ming's voice, so this scene is naturally Fang Ming's memory.
--I am special.
Fang Ming said this in the background.
The video is shot from Fang Ming's first-person perspective, recording everything he sees.
--I remember everything from the time I was born.
People came and went in the hospital; the faces of his parents, the doctors, everything around him was reflected in Fang Ming's small eyes.
--From birth, to my first words, my first steps, my first run, I remember everything.
The images on the Sky Screen kept changing.
In the blink of an eye, little Fang Ming had grown into a seven or eight-year-old.
But young Fang Ming didn't play around like the other children; instead, he held a book and read it with great interest.
--I am special.
Fang Ming's background noise emphasized this point again.
In the picture, young Fang Ming is flipping through one book after another, reading them at a very fast pace.
--I learn things very quickly; I can master the most basic skills of anything after just a short time of observation.
Literature, language, music, sports... all abilities, like skills, are quickly learned and mastered by me, which is why I became a genius in the eyes of others.
The scenes switched in quick succession.
Fang Ming playing football and tennis on the sports field, scenes of Fang Ming learning martial arts, and scenes of Fang Ming playing the piano and violin.
In these scenes, Fang Ming in the picture is also gradually growing up.
He quickly became an outstanding person.
A person who is almost omnipotent.
(Don't stop me! I want to punch him!!!)
(Damn it, I know you're a genius! I know you're a genius, okay?!)
(I finally understand, the difference between people is truly greater than the difference between a person and a dog!)
(No wonder my cousin, though only in his early twenties, seems to know everything... So that's why!)
(If my cousin hadn't become Magical Girls, his future would probably have been much brighter...)
(... Now that you mention it, I suddenly don't envy my cousin anymore; he deserves all of this.)
"Hmm? Strange, it didn't reveal that I'm a transmigrator...? Could it be that Stella's memories are limited?"
Fang Ming, inside the Sky Screen, narrates the first half of his life from a third-person perspective, which puzzles Fang Ming below the Sky Screen.
Logically speaking, if Stella had really seen Fang Ming's memories, she should have been well aware that Fang Ming's true identity was that of a time traveler.
They even knew everything about Fang Ming's 'superpowers'.
Judging from what's being shown in the Sky Screen now, Stella might indeed know some things, but not much.
They didn't even know Fang Ming's 'superpowers', they just felt that Fang Ming learned things very quickly.
Of course, this could be a dramatic embellishment of Stella's alter ego, the Record Bear.
But Fang Ming felt...
Perhaps Stella truly didn't know his real identity, nor was she aware of his extraordinary abilities!
Fang Ming was quite confident in his cheat system; it could even turn 'Magic Source' into a skill, so Stella shouldn't be able to detect it easily.
Moreover, it's not hard to see from previous visuals that when Sky Screen Fang Ming burns knowledge, he directly transforms the relevant knowledge into images, creating a visual burning effect.
Although this modification was made for the sake of the anime's visuals, it also proves that perhaps the Record Bear truly didn't know how Fang Ming burned his memories!
She only saw in Fang Ming's memory the scene of him exchanging knowledge for magic.
But how exactly knowledge is acquired and how it is "burned" remains unclear to the Record Bear.
Perhaps this is why Fang Ming's confession in the ninth episode differs from reality.
Thank you to 'Fu Hua?', 'Silly Long Night Moon', 'Phantom Spring Netherfall', 'Chuang Kun', 'Seeking the World, Seeing the World’s End', and 'Miss Guifang' for the spicy snack donations!
Thanks to 'Silly Baji Chang Yeyue' and 'LingShang' for the salted fish thrust reward~
Thanks!
Volume 4 <Magic Autumn> Theatrical Edition and Season 3: Chapter 459 Fang Ming's Transformation Time
As Fang Ming grew up, among many jobs that could have earned him a high salary, he chose to become a writer.
He actually had many options: either start his own corporation based on his talent or join the Federation and become a high-ranking official.
Or perhaps they could dedicate themselves to science and become renowned scientists in the Federation.
But in the end, Fang Ming only chose to write books.
For him, this was the easiest job.
He disliked all those messy things, and whether it was starting a company or joining the government, there would be many constraints.
Becoming a freelancer, on the contrary, suits his taste better.
So Fang Ming started writing books when he was young, and by the time he became an adult, he had accomplished something that most people in the world could not.
To become a world-renowned author.
Fang Ming's life then entered a simpler mode.
At only twenty-three or twenty-four years old, he's already living a life of retirement, spending his days playing video games in addition to his routine of studying and exercising.
This peaceful life continued until she met Yu Muqiu.
"Brother Fang Ming! Long time no see!"
Yu Muqiu, standing in the Sky Screen, cheerfully greeted Fang Ming.
This scene inevitably brings to mind the third episode of the first season, when Fang Ming first appeared.
--I thought I could live a peaceful life, but... her appearance changed my destiny.
Fang Ming's confession continues.
The scenes within the Sky Screen also changed rapidly.
On the second night after Yu Muqiu arrived at Fang Ming's home, Nightmare Barrier descended upon the house.
This is probably a cruel twist of fate.
Fang Ming, who clearly has no Magical Girls aptitude whatsoever, was also enveloped by the Nightmare Barrier.
The room inside the Nightmare Barrier shattered, Fang Ming was nearly crushed to death by the rubble after the high-rise building collapsed.
Although he didn't die, he was trapped under the rubble, and then Fang Ming witnessed a scene he would never forget.
Magical Girls flew in from afar and began fighting the Demons.
That was also the first time Fang Ming realized the truth of this world.
Perhaps because the Magical Girls were certain that ordinary people wouldn't be caught up in the Nightmare Barrier, no one came to check on Fang Ming's situation.
The same goes for Demons; Magical Girls and Demons only have eyes for each other.
They were fighting, but the blue Magical Girls was quickly defeated.
Next up is the green Magical Girls.
Based on his combat experience gained from years of learning martial arts, Fang Ming could tell that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Magical Girls' defeat was inevitable.
Given the Demons' hatred for them, once the Magical Girls are defeated, there is only one fate awaiting them.
Die.
"Cough cough..." After struggling to crawl out of the ruins, Fang Ming racked his brains trying to figure out how to help the Magical Girls.
Then... he saw the Magic Crystal that had fallen during the Magical Girls' battle with the Demons...
Those were fragments of magic from the Demons's body. As the Demons's outer armor fell off, they landed not far away, emitting a faint magical aura.
As if by some strange twist of fate, Fang Ming grabbed the fragment.
Boom!
Magic emerged from the fragments and enveloped Fang Ming's entire body.
In that instant, Fang Ming understood what he had to do.
"So that's how it is... It seems all the things I've learned over the past twenty years were for this moment..."
Fang Ming murmured to himself as memories surfaced around him, hundreds and thousands of useful and useless images swirling around him.
In an instant, several images shattered and converged into magical power, merging into Fang Ming's body!
And then... Fang Ming's exclusive transformation scene begins!
(So that's how it is! My cousin actually possessed the ability to exchange knowledge for magic from the very beginning!)
(I knew it! How could such a tiny fragment turn someone into Magical Girls... Turns out it's from my cousin's special abilities...)
(Wait a minute! My cousin is just an ordinary person. Even if he came into contact with magic, he should have become Demons, right?! And how could he even come into contact with magic? Is that even scientifically possible?!)
(Because he's a genius, my cousin has always said in his own words that he's special and learns Western Capital very quickly. Maybe... my cousin himself is special?)
(I don't care about any of that, I want to see my cousin's transformation scene www)
(Quack! Don't watch the man's transformation!!)
(He's Xiao Bai, by the way~~)
(Wow!! Stop talking!!!)
"Aaaaaaahh..."
Below the Sky Screen, Fang Ming covered his eyes and rolled on the ground.
He knew it!!
When Fang Ming saw Xiao Qiu and the others' transformation scene in the first season, he knew! He would definitely have such a day too!!
However, no similar operation occurred in the three consecutive seasons plus one spin-off and the theatrical version, so Fang Ming subconsciously forgot about it!
And now...
Fang Ming! He's about to unleash his transformation on the Sky Screen!!
Not Xiao Bai!
It was him!!!
"Aaaaaah!!! Kill me!"
At this moment, Fang Ming finally understood how Xiao Qiu and Xiaoxia felt when they first saw him transform.
I'm so ashamed I want to die!
He even wanted to go out and cut the Sky Screen into pieces!!
