Chapter 451
Xiao Bai slept all day but failed to enter the dream world to see the Record Bear.
Perhaps Xiao Bai will only be able to see the other person after the end of the first season of the Sky Screen.
"Woke up?"
Xiao Bai woke up from her sleep again, and before she could even open her eyes, she heard the voice of the Witch Lesos.
She opened her eyes and found herself lying on a deckchair on the second deck. The Witch Lesos was lying next to her on another deckchair, wearing a one-piece swimsuit.
The group of friends, including Xiao Qiu, are taking photos ahead.
The sounds of Aurora and Xiaoxia sparring could be heard from the first deck. The Magical Girls were all busy with their own things, and no one paid any attention to this side.
Stretching lazily in the recliner, Xiao Bai showed no intention of getting up and continued to lie there.
She gazed at the distant sea reflecting the setting sun and lazily asked Lesos:
How long have I been asleep?
I started sleeping around 8 a. m., and it's 4 p. m. now.
"Oh, eight hours..."
"Hehe, didn't sleep well last night?"
Lesos's words were quite meaningful, and she joked, "Looks like Xiao Chun and Aurora really wore you out last night."
"... Isn't what you're saying a bit ambiguous...? No, do you know what happened last night?"
Xiao Bai looked at Lesos in surprise.
Lesos picked up the lemonade next to her, took a small sip, and said with a smile:
"I saw Aurora go into your room, and I also saw Xiao Chun go by. Hmm, although your original form has shrunk, judging by your age... you should have developed by now, right?"
"So, last night you..."
"There's nothing there!" Xiao Bai White rolled her eyes, interrupting Lesos.
This Lesos, once you get to know her, she keeps making suggestive remarks. If you're not careful, who knows if she might corrupt the Magical Girls?
Lesos's smile widened. She glanced at Xiao Chun, who was watching them, and suddenly whispered to Xiao Bai:
"Oh, so they look too young to satisfy you? What do you think of me then?"
"!?"
"I saw comments online saying that you seem to like my type?"
"Stop joking!"
Lesos's words made Xiao Bai tremble.
She glanced instinctively at Xiao Chun, and only after realizing that Xiao Chun didn't seem to have heard Lesos's words did she whisper a reply to Lesos:
"I'm not that kind of person, and... if Xiao Chun and the others hear what you said, I'm going to be in trouble again tonight..."
"Hehehe, don't worry, the barrier has already been set up."
Lesos gently pointed to the ground beneath her feet.
Centered on the two-seater lounge chair, the space within a two-meter radius is covered by an invisible barrier—this is a soundproof barrier.
Lesos had already set up a one-way soundproof barrier, which explains why Xiao Chun, though looking at this side warily, didn't make any move.
After all, Xiao Chun didn't hear what Lesos was saying at all.
Xiao Bai visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
Lesos's smile remained unchanged. She crossed her legs, picked up the lemonade in the stemmed glass, swirled it, and said to Xiao Bai:
"Although I was joking just now, I sincerely suggest that you decide on your future partner as soon as possible. Magical Girls' own emotions are always very important, no matter what."
"If you can establish a relationship with someone, they might unleash unexpected power at a crucial moment."
"... I will seriously consider it after the threat of the Demons is completely eliminated."
Xiao Bai used the reason she had given Xiao Chun before.
Although Xiao Bai was somewhat tempted by Aurora Xiao Chun and Aurora, Xiao Bai didn't dare to actually make a move against them because Xiao Chun were still too young.
Xiao Chun and Aurora attacked Xiao Bai because they were young and ignorant.
If Xiao Bai really lays a hand on the two children, then this time next year, we'll probably see her at the shooting range!
Therefore, this matter requires further consideration.
If we want to seriously consider these things, we should at least wait until the Demons are completely defeated!
"Heh, pointless persistence."
Lesos seemed to have guessed what Xiao Bai was thinking and smiled mockingly at Xiao Bai.
Xiao Bai didn't care about Lesos's attitude towards her; she was more curious about something else:
"Weren't you wary of me before? Thinking I might turn into Demons or something? How come you're so relaxed when you're with me now? What, you've started to trust me now?"
"What good is distrust? Right now, only Xiao Qiu can defeat the Demons, and Xiao Qiu is clearly on your side. If I really did something to you, do you think Xiao Qiu would forgive me?"
The Witch rolled her eyes slightly and said to Xiao Bai, "I'm not stupid. If I offend Demons, I can find a place to hide. But if I offend the future God of Magical Girls, I have nowhere to hide."
God of Magical Girls?
Lesos's words made Xiao Bai's expression turn serious.
She straightened up slightly, rose from the recliner, and turned to look at the Witch:
"'God of Magical Girls'... this shouldn't be a joke, right?"
The Witch didn't hide anything. "The first Magical Girls was called the God of Magical Girls. If the headquarters of the Magical Girls were still there, you could still see the statue of the first one at their Tea Party gathering place."
"And if Xiao Qiu is truly as depicted in the Sky Screen, capable of even using her companions' magic, then she is undoubtedly the new generation's God of Magical Girls. Of course... that's what we mean, in reality she's just an even more powerful Magical Girls."
"That's all?" Xiao Bai raised an eyebrow.
The Witch finished the lemonade in her glass, looked at Xiao Bai, and said, "Isn't that enough? Being able to use the power of all Magical Girls means that in the future, Yu Muqiu will be able to locate other Magical Girls through the magic of her companions."
"Although I am Witch, I am still Magical Girls at heart. What is inside me is not the Nightmare Seed, but the Emotion Seed. In other words... as long as Yu Muqiu wants, she can use my power and lock onto my location in the future."
"If I wanted to hide before, the Demon King would never find me, but if Yu Muqiu grows stronger, I won't even have anywhere to hide."
The Witch Lesos finally revealed the real reason why she feared Yu Muqiu.
"Such a thing is possible?" Xiao Bai was stunned.
She only knew that Yu Muqiu might become very powerful in the future, but she never expected that Yu Muqiu could even use the abilities of Witch!
However, what the Witch Lesos said wasn't entirely wrong.
Witch is essentially Magical Girls who has not been completely corrupted; her core is not the Nightmare Seed, but the Emotion Seed.
The magical power of Magical Girls originates from their own Emotion Seed. Yu Muqiu's ability to use her companions' magic is probably also due to the special connection between their Emotion Seed.
Therefore, it makes sense that she is able to use Lesos's magic.
Xiao Bai remembers that Lesos's magic is time...
Hmm...? Time?
God of Magical Girls?
For some unknown reason, Xiao Bai subconsciously looked up at the Sky Screen.
Noticing Xiao Bai's actions, Lesos's lips curled into a smile:
"So you finally noticed?"
"... Are you saying that Sky Screen is the future Xiao Qiu...?"
"I didn't say that, but... it's not impossible," Lesos added. "Some Magical Girls 'teleportation,' some have 'time,' and Magical Girls have 'recording'..."
"A single Magical Girls could never record and send the images to the past, but what if it were... someone who combined the abilities of all Magical Girls?"
Lesos paused briefly, then turned her gaze to Yu Muqiu, who was standing by the railing gazing into the distance, and said softly:
"I didn't quite understand what the Sky Screen was before, but after the third season ended, I think I understand it a bit better. If someone in the future could send the Sky Screen back to the past, allowing the right people to see the right images..."
"It can only be Xiao Qiu."
Xiao Bai continued Lesos's words.
That's right. If one day in the future, Xiao Qiu really does become the so-called God of Magical Girls, then sending the Sky Screen to the past so that everyone can see it won't be a difficult thing for her.
But...
Xiao Bai couldn't help but recall the conversation between Sister Bai and the Record Bear that she had overheard in the 'dream'.
--Is it really a good ending to let Xiao Qiu fight forever?
Sister Bai took Xiao Bai's words to heart.
What exactly happened in the future, and why does Xiao Qiu keep fighting?
These Xiao Bai don't know that.
All she knew was that the future within the Sky Screen wouldn't have a good ending.
Countless hardships and Pain experiences await Xiao Qiu.
Volume 5 Side Story <Magic Mystery> Season 2: Chapter 485 Kazama Reiko's Card-Drawing Magic
Beep beep beep--
The alarm clock rang cheerfully.
The girl, lying in bed, reluctantly reached out and grabbed the alarm clock, then shrank back into the covers along with it.
A few seconds later, the alarm clock turned off, and the arm reached out again to put the alarm clock back in its place.
It had done its job, but unfortunately, the owner who turned it off had no intention of getting up.
A few minutes later, an orange-haired head suddenly popped out from under the covers.
Her short, orange hair was disheveled, and through the messy strands, one could vaguely see the bewildered look in the orange-haired girl's eyes.
One second... two seconds...
Another ten seconds or so passed before the girl finally seemed to remember something and jumped out of bed.
"Oh no!! I forgot!! There's a test today!!"
Today is a day off, and the girl shouldn't be going to school.
That's why she subconsciously turned off the alarm clock and went back to sleep.
But then the girl remembered that today was the 'graduation exam' for the Magical Girls of the Eastern Ocean District. After half a year of training, the Magical Girls of the Eastern Ocean District had barely passed.
Today is their test. After passing the test, the Magical Girls of the Eastern Ocean District will become official Magical Girls.
Kazama Reiko initially didn't want to become Magical Girls, as she felt she wasn't qualified and thought she might run away if she encountered real danger.
However, after more than half a year of training, Kazama Reiko has become familiar with what it feels like to be Magical Girls, and she has come to like it.
Rather, it's more accurate to say that Kazama Reiko is a long-time fan of Magical Girls, and becoming Magical Girls is her dream. Now that her dream has come true, Kazama Reiko doesn't really want to give up.
Therefore, she must pass today's test!
After hurriedly changing her clothes and only managing to eat the breakfast her family had prepared, Kazama Reiko took the subway and finally arrived at the Magical Girls Base in Eastern Capital just before the assessment began.
"I'm... sorry! I'm late!"
Although she arrived just in time, strictly speaking, she was already late.
All the other Magical Girls were already in their positions, and she was the only one who hadn't arrived yet.
In the empty training ground of the Magical Girls Base in Eastern Capital, Tottori Shiori, with her yellow ponytail, complained to Kazama Reiko:
"Too slow! Even the subway gets stuck in traffic now?"
"Um... sorry, I woke up a little late..."
Reiko scratched the back of her head sheepishly.
Shiori rolled her eyes and continued to complain, "You, on the day of the assessment, you actually managed to get up late. Should I say you're carefree, or that you're just too confident...?"
"I was too excited last night and ended up staying up all night..."
Reiko chuckled dryly as she explained why she woke up late and was still groggy.
