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

Fiery and violent!

After weaving through the surging crowd, Jiang Si finally reached the parking lot where the calamity beast was located.

The terrifying monster resembled some kind of insect that had been enlarged, its mouthparts even tearing apart a car.

The entire parking lot was a mess, but there were hardly any people around. The cars were smashed and billowing black smoke, and the torrential rain extinguished the flames.

There was only one little girl with a cut on her right leg, sitting in the rain, pressing her bleeding leg, sobbing in panic.

"Quick, save her! Jiang Si!"

"I sensed the magic, but then what? I still couldn't transform."

Jiang Si walked towards the calamity beast at a leisurely pace.

"The final step is, of course, the spell, the final transformation spell! You have to figure it out yourself! It's the trigger for unleashing magical power and donning the costume! It's common sense that you can transform simply by using a spell!"

"What kind of common sense is this? I've never heard of it."

The injured girl looked up and saw the strange boy walk up to her, facing the calamity beast.

He casually tossed the umbrella aside, and it landed at her feet.

"Don't get in the way."

His indifferent tone didn't make her feel cold. As she picked up the umbrella, she saw the boy take out a seed.

The beautiful and delicate seeds immediately captivated her, making it impossible for her to look away.

Then, she heard the boy chant some incantation, but it was drowned out by the sound of rain, so she couldn't hear it clearly.

Purple flames shot into the sky!

The monster that was crashing into them was sent flying and crashed into a car.

The urgent sirens of car sirens, the torrential rain, and the roars of monstrous beasts mingled together, yet the girl could see and hear nothing.

All his attention was focused on the purple figure in front of him.

The fluttering ribbons resembled flowers swaying in the wind, and the purple and gold dress made her look like a flower blooming in a flame.

And that face, with a gaze that held a certain masculine determination and aloofness, yet its features were exceptionally beautiful and lovely.

The boy transformed into a magical girl...

"Magical girl, Shion."

"Begin the cleanup task."

The girl, clutching her umbrella tightly, imprinted that figure—as fiery and as beautiful as a flower—deeply in her heart, though she didn't know where the sound came from.

I can never forget it.

Chapter Five: I won't allow that kind of thing

When I opened my eyes, it was already morning.

Jiang Si rubbed her eyes and held up the seeds in her hand.

Sunlight streamed through the curtains, making the purple seeds appear translucent, like gemstones.

Suppressing her feelings of satisfaction, Jiang Si got up again and glanced at the homework on her desk.

I haven't finished writing yet. Generally speaking, I should go to school early to finish my homework.

The amount of homework in high school is increasing, and if he has to do it all, it will cause considerable trouble on his path of cultivation.

After getting up, I packed my homework into my schoolbag, changed my clothes, washed up, and went downstairs. There I saw my younger sister already eating.

Simple scrambled eggs, and leftover steamed buns from last night.

"Coco, your teacher called yesterday and said your math grades have dropped."

While washing up, he reminded her, "Study hard."

Jiang Keke, Keke is her nickname. Her parents originally planned to give her a formal name later, but an accident three years ago made it impossible for them to give her a proper name, so Keke's nickname has been used ever since.

"Ah."

His attitude was extremely cold.

Since Jiang Si skipped his parents' funeral three years ago, his relationship with his sister has remained in the same state.

Jiang Si had no intention of trying to build a good relationship with her, and Jiang Keke was almost unwilling to say a word to him.

Although the two had lived together for several years, they were no different from strangers.

The relatives naturally considered adopting Jiang Keke—but no one was willing to adopt Jiang Si, such a heartless child.

No one wants to raise a child who shows no emotion whatsoever over their parents' death, let alone cries or feels any sadness.

Although many people wanted to adopt Jiang Keke, she was unwilling to leave the house left by her parents.

After a while, the two of them spent three years together.

His younger sister went to junior high school, and he went to high school.

"Parent-Teacher Conference..."

"It's no trouble for you."

Before I could finish speaking, they had already refused.

He helped his sister attend two parent-teacher conferences.

After all, his parents passed away early, so it's normal for him to attend his sister's parent-teacher conference as her older brother. However, he wasn't much older than his sister, so he inevitably became the subject of some jokes at the conference.

I heard that her classmates at school always make fun of her after each parent-teacher conference, so it seems they don't want her to go this time.

Although relatives can help, sometimes it's best to avoid using these connections if possible.

After all, the more she uses it, the more compelling the other party's reason becomes to adopt Jiang Keke, until Jiang Keke has no way to refuse.

Jiang Si didn't care whether she would be adopted by someone else; to him, it would be a good thing if his younger sister were adopted.

Since becoming a magical girl, he has had a lot to research, and Jiang Keke's presence is ultimately a bit of a hindrance.

For Jiang Si, her own path of seeking the Dao has always been her top priority.

Because of the kindness of their parents in raising him, he didn't mind taking care of his younger sister, but it would be more convenient for Jiang Si if she wanted to leave on her own.

After washing up, Coco had just sat down at the table when she stood up, grabbed the half-eaten bread, picked up her schoolbag, and headed out.

It's like I have an allergic reaction when I'm near him.

Jiang Si was already used to it. She made do with the leftover steamed buns from yesterday and some cold dishes, then grabbed her schoolbag and headed out.

Although transforming into a magical girl allows him to fly, it still requires a concealed identity, and he doesn't want to expose it.

In recent years, the number of calamity beasts in Beihai has increased, and the control over magical girls' memories has finally been relaxed. The memories are no longer erased, and discussions about magical girls can be heard on the streets.

If I were to transform myself carelessly, I would be recognized very quickly, and my location would be easily pinpointed, after which my identity would be revealed...

The protagonists in online novels never easily reveal their secrets.

Even when facing family members, it's the same.

During the rush hour for work and school, even though Jiang Si arrived very early, the crowd was still incredibly dense. Once inside, one was powerless to resist being pushed forward by the flow of people. He managed to grab a pole near the window and finally stabilize himself in the throng.

The air smelled of breakfast, and the students were chattering away energetically early in the morning. The not-too-bright early morning sun dispelled the chill of last night, and the warmth made Jiang Si yawn, as sleepiness crept back in.

In the past, every aspect of his ordinary life had made him anxious and restless.

Now that I hold the power of a magical girl, the path to enlightenment is within reach, and I can finally feel peace and tranquility in the face of it all.

not bad.

As he was thinking this, and intending to take a nap before reaching his destination, the sunlight suddenly disappeared.

Something huge shadow fell over.

Immediately afterwards, the bus, filled with students and commuters, began to shake violently.

The screams of students and the shouts of office workers were accompanied by people making phone calls.

The peaceful morning was shattered.

Jiang Si looked up and saw a terrifying eyeball appear above the bus, causing the bus to shake violently in the gust of wind.

Disaster Beast.

Over the past three years, he has seen and dealt with quite a few. Perhaps it is because there are more magical girls in the North Sea that the disaster beasts have begun to appear more frequently.

It may be a combination of resentment from not wanting to go to school and not wanting to go to work.

That's just how troublesome things are; they can inexplicably arise whenever there's resentment.

There was a commotion around him, and it seemed someone was crying. He touched his purple seed.

Just as the eyeball was stirring up an even bigger gust of wind, threatening to lift the entire bus, a glimmer of icy blue light suddenly pierced through the somewhat distorted eyeball.

Blood flowed like tears, and icy blue light spots quickly soaked into the entire eyeball, blooming with dazzling colors. When the light dimmed, it was discovered that the eyeball was completely frozen, wrapped in layers of ice crystals.

A magical girl then gently stepped on the eyeball.

Amid cheers from the bus, the magic wand in her hand struck the ice crystals beneath her feet with great force. The terrifying beast, which would be terrifying to ordinary people, easily turned into ice crystal fragments that scattered in the air.

A light ribbon swept through the air as the blue magical girl flew backwards through the ice crystals, as beautiful and elegant as an elf. Before disappearing, she smiled and waved at the bus, as if greeting it, her lips moving slightly as if she were saying something.

Jiang Si looked away and released the magic seed from her hand.

There's no need to worry about how to transform after leaving the bus.

After the magical girl disappeared, even more discussion broke out on the bus.

"It's her again, the blue magical girl!"

"Codenamed Winter Girl, a free-spirited magical girl, with six-petaled ice flower-shaped pupils. Her abilities are low temperatures and the manipulation of ice..."

"You remember it in such detail."

"After all, she's an unofficial magical girl. I heard the Disaster Management Bureau has been looking for her."

"I wonder if a fight will break out..."

She's considered a minor celebrity.
