Starting with magical girls, I'll reign supreme for eternity.

Even without any physical presence, the visual effect alone evokes a sense of oppressive heat, as if one could faintly smell the sweat.

However, in reality, Jiang Si did not sweat. The warm wood in the room would not allow the scent of sweat to travel that far.

Yinlian, her heart pounding like a deer, kept searching for adjectives to describe it.

Hormones?

Big Fennis? Mambarin or some kind of masculine aura...

In short, I don't understand. She reads fewer romance comics than Coco, so I can't find any words to describe it.

Lying stiffly on the floor, he tried to tug at Coco, attempting to wake his friend.

However, Coco simply turned over and went back to sleep soundly.

You said you were coming to Jiang Si's room to chat, but you just fell asleep and left me all alone!

Stupid Coco!

"I, I, am asleep now..."

What am I talking about?!

Jiang Si stood up, intending to pick up the two girls and throw them out.

Yinlian sat up with a "thud," exclaiming, "I'm awake!"

After sitting up abruptly, he was almost pressed against Jiang Si, and he could finally smell Jiang Si's scent clearly.

There was no smell of sweat or hormones; instead, there was the smell of machine oil and steel from a factory.

It smells nice...

Subconsciously shifting her bottom back, almost touching Coco, she looked at Jiang Si who was squatting down and said, "We just wanted to come and chat with you."

"What do you want to talk about?"

"Coco said she hopes you can watch her match and wants you to see her skills..."

As they talked, and things calmed down, Yinlian looked at Jiang Si's neck.

The Miracle Seed necklace that was hanging there before is gone.

"After all, Miss Shion taught her a lot, so I want you to see the results."

Jiang Si simply said "Oh" and didn't say anything else.

He was indeed very interested in how strong Coco was now.

He could hardly beat Yu Mo in a fight, and it was hard to tell exactly how much she had improved. This was a great opportunity for him.

Moreover, the numerous promotional posters and projections I saw along the way in South China, along with the enthusiastic discussions among the citizens, made me wonder if this opportunity would lead to the birth of a magical treasure, the emergence of a celestial being, or some other wondrous object from heaven and earth.

“Coco was worried that you had disappeared again, which is why she was sleeping here. I’m also a little worried that you and Ziyuan may have gone to a dangerous place again.”

"No."

Seeing that she seemed to want to have a long chat, Jiang Si simply lay down. Anyway, the floor mat was already made, the light was turned off, and she just needed to cover herself with the blanket.

Let her ramble on; she's not threatening us anyway.

Moreover, Yinlian's voice is very soft and gentle, which sounds very hypnotic.

It's a great ambient sound to use as a sleep aid.

After the last battle, Jiang Si placed her in the safe zone.

Silver Lotus's magic excels at dealing with large-scale calamity beasts and waging protracted wars.

His one-on-one burst damage isn't enough, and he doesn't have many skills. He's already fallen behind Coco.

This "Absolute Demon Hunt Battle Royale" tournament clearly poses no threat to Coco.

Of the people who have come so far, only An Shiyu is truly threatening. After all, if Mu Jin were to fight in her place, Coco might not be a match. Now that Mu Jin is using An Shiyu's body, her spatial magic is becoming increasingly fluid, and her combat experience is also quite good.

Let alone Coco, there aren't many in the Qingyun Sect who can easily handle this.

Fortunately, Hibiscus itself has a mental imagery domain, and An Shiyu hasn't reached the seedling stage yet, so there's no need for her to compete for a spot in the mental imagery domain.

The magical girls from Beihai who acted together this time are basically no threat. The rest depends on what powerful magical girls from South China have.

Although it's a new map and the overall strength has increased, Coco, who possesses both Yin and Yang paths, can't guarantee winning the championship if she unleashes the full power of her Holy Light Demon Collapse Body. After all, once the strength increases, no one knows if Coco will make a bad move, as she lacks practical experience.

But finishing in the top three should be no problem.

Following the lying-down Yinlian, it carefully wriggled and moved to Jiang Si's side.

Although I was a little nervous, I just kept imagining what my older sister looked like in my mind.

The tension and anxiety will disappear without a trace.

My older sister is the best tranquilizer.

Especially when facing Jiang Si.

"Jiang Si..."

"Ah."

"I don't want to avenge my sister, nor do I want to become enemies with Ziyuan for her sake."

"Ah."

“My parents say I’m a heartless person.” Yinlian curled up, her toes carefully curling up and pressing down on Jiang Si’s bedding. “I’m an ungrateful wretch, so I’ve been desperately trying to prove that I’m not. I tell myself that even if my sister did something wrong, she was still very good to me. Others can hate my sister, but I can’t hate her.”

"But I can't do it. I feel no hatred for the person who killed my sister, nor do I think about revenge or even want to get close to her."

Yinlian clenched her hands and put them to her mouth, "It's really annoying..."

The room fell silent.

Yinlian really wanted to touch Jiang Si's body, but because the lights were off, she felt like she was facing thin air.

She was afraid that when she confided in someone, no one would listen, but she didn't have the courage to reach out.

always like this.

He's only half-baked at everything he does.

Love is fleeting and confused, hate is hesitant and timid.

He probed for other people's opinions, yet dared not speak out directly.

"really."

After the other person agrees with her and admits to the matter, she will become depressed and sad on her own again.

"When you regain your magical girl powers."

Jiang Si's voice came from the side, making Yinlian's eyes widen, "You said you hated your sister."

Inside the quiet room, the cool moonlight shone down, and Yinlian, lying on her side on the bed with her back arched, muttered, "So you heard me back then."

And surprisingly, he still remembers it.

"They were shouting too loudly."

"Ah ha ha."

Are you scared?

"Ah."

"What are you afraid of?"

Of course, it's because I'm afraid of being disliked.

She was afraid of being seen as ungrateful, as a heartless ingrate, and as a cold-hearted girl.

The opinions and judgments of others are terrifying, especially Jiang Si's views, which Yinlian cares about immensely.

"Would you hate me for being like this?"

Yinlian stretched out her body, slightly propping herself up. The moonlight was gradually obscured by the dark clouds, and the room was plunged into darkness again: "Even for Ziyuan, who killed my sister, I can't bring myself to hate her. I want to be friends with her. Even though we haven't known each other for long, I've gradually come to feel that she's more important than my sister. Do you find me disgusting?"

The first time I spoke frankly, I no longer probed gently and cautiously, but asked clearly and directly.

Then came a deathly silence, like waiting for a verdict, which made Yinlian hold her breath.

The unusual chirping of insects came from outside the window, so loud it made my ears hurt, while my hands, which were braced on the warm wood of the floor, were trembling with cold.

"Dead people are not considered people."

After Jiang Si spoke, she suddenly felt her hands lose strength and collapsed numbly.

The pale moonlight peeked through the clouds, outlining the contours of the boy's face.

Yinlian, lying on the floor, peeked out with one eye, which curved like a crescent moon. "I see."

Everything suddenly became clear, and something quietly disappeared from her heart. She let out a sigh of relief.

"Jiang Si".

"Ah."

"I like aster."

"Oh."

"I like her so much that I want to change my surname for her."

Oh, I see. I want to recognize another older sister.

He had heard of the "recognizing a father" phenomenon in online novels, where people would recognize fathers or masters everywhere, asking their masters to fight for them, cultivate for them, and lend them their names and wisdom when they sought enlightenment.

I reckon Yinlian is thinking the same way: the "sisterhood" approach, having multiple "sisters" to fight for her.

The black dragon also recognized its mother.

Unfortunately, Jiang Si is already tired enough with her sister Coco, and doesn't want another sister.

If she were called Li Li, it would be worth considering; she could steal a portion of the karma from Ancestor Jiang Li. But her name isn't Li Li.

So, there was nothing more to say, and I just decided to go to sleep.

I don't know how much time had passed, maybe an hour? Or perhaps two hours.

Silver lotus is no longer recognizable.
