"Gem Scepter... Sapphire... So that's how it was."
Not far from the battlefield, Xia Liang murmured in sudden realization when she heard what Moss had said.
Just now, while Larkspur and Moss had been fighting, she and Lin Xiaolu had not been idle. They had taken the opportunity to rescue the knocked-out Bai Jingxuan.
Bai Jingxuan's injuries were not light. Moss had shown no mercy when dealing with her, and a single magic bullet had knocked her unconscious. She had yet to wake up. Fortunately, her breathing was steady, so her condition was not too serious.
"What? Why did the Gem Scepter suddenly come up?"
Beside her, Lin Xiaolu supported Bai Jingxuan, who lay on the ground. She raised her head at Xia Liang's words, her face full of confusion. "And who is Cornflower? Was she also one of Larkspur's and Mom's former teammates?"
Clearly, she was still completely out of the loop.
"Cornflower... was the name of the last Sapphire remaining on Her Majesty's scepter."
Before Xia Liang could explain, Moko suddenly spoke. "There had once been five gems on Her Majesty's scepter: ruby, emerald, sapphire, diamond, and cat's eye. Later, she bestowed four of them upon the magical girls she had chosen, and those magical girls became the Gem Scepters. Only the Sapphire was never given away and remained on Her Majesty's scepter."
"The gem's name... You mean..."
Only then did Lin Xiaolu belatedly open her mouth wide. "The 'Cornflower' they were talking about was actually Larkspur's..."
"Yeah. If Senior accepted the identity of a Gem Scepter, then her codename should be 'Cornflower' now."
Xia Liang, too, gazed at the battlefield in the distance with a complicated expression. "But somehow, this explanation still feels strange..."
The girls' discussion could not affect the real battle.
