Regarding the fact that my best friend is a magical girl

But the witch...

"Wait a minute, I don't feel like I've turned into a witch. My magic power limit hasn't increased much either... and I don't have any urge to do bad things... Will I become someone I don't recognize? That kind of power must come at a price, right?"

Am I going to turn into something bad?

What's this usually called?

**?

Spica tapped my forehead.

"Calm down. There's no evidence that becoming a witch would make you want to do bad things, is there?"

Sirius also comforted her, saying, "Don't worry. The black power remaining in the Vega crystal is very little. Apart from preventing you from reverting to your transformation, it has no other side effects and can't give you any power either. So it's impossible for you to squander magic power like a witch."

"Since it has no effect, you don't need to tell me..."

Miss Spica deactivated her Star Crystal, reverting to her original white lab coat appearance, and said, "Originally, I planned to observe the situation, but things have changed. In order to lock down this new type of monster as soon as possible, we must understand that power better."

"...Are there no other research materials besides me?"

I have a feeling of unease.

Spica reassured, "The forced fusion of the Star Crystal was also influenced by that dark energy, so Yuehan and Anjie will assist me... Of course, the latter only agreed under my manipulation."

Brainwashing? Wait, that's not even consent!

"No, there won't be any danger, will there?" I asked cautiously.

"I assure you, there will be no danger to your life."

"Does this mean that anything is possible except for not dying?"

Miss Spica smiled kindly, but did not deny what I said.

"Serno, please overcome this in order to save the city and the world."

I just feel like it's terrifying!

Chapter Seventeen Feminization

(Albinocotyledon)

After leaving the branch, he found a public toilet and transformed back into a man before going back.

however……

Something terrible happened.

I should have had some stubble because I haven't groomed myself much these past two days.

Although it was supposed to be "as it should be," it's still on her face now, but...

"It fell down!"

With just a gentle wipe, the stubble was easily removed, just like the fog that condensed on Ah Yao's glasses when he ate hot pot...

In the mirror above the sink, his chin was so smooth that not a single stubble could be seen. Even the black hairs that are easily left after shaving were gone, making it look as if he had never grown a beard at all.

Based on the fact that my skin had become smoother before, I could vaguely guess the rule.

As long as I become Milno, my body in the white leaf form will gradually become more feminine, but this has not happened before, and even after fully fusing with the Star Crystal, there seems to be no obvious change.

"That potion heals wounds by rapidly accelerating metabolism... Yin Wei did mention that it had side effects."

Although I don't quite understand the workings of the potion, it's possible that the estrogen produced by Milno's body also affected me in my white cotyledon state?

So, if we maintain the state of white cotyledons for a long time, it can be restored?

Damn it, I can only ask Yin Wei to subtly probe the issue.

However, the effects of that prototype potion were indeed amazing, especially for skin and flesh wounds. The wounds would heal at a speed that was visible to the naked eye and almost disgustingly fast, and in the end, no scars would be left. Ignoring the side effects, it was indeed a perfect healing potion, even somewhat like a health potion in a game. If you drank it and went into battle, it could indeed heal some minor wounds in battle.

Although the recovery process is a bit itchy.

I dialed the number.

The other end asked bluntly, "Miluno, or Bai Ziye?"

"Albinocotyledon".

"Your voice sounds a bit strange, like a neutered dog."

"Are you looking for trouble? I'd like to ask you what's going on here!"

"Huh? Looks like something happened?"

I told her about the changes in my body and my speculations about the matter.

"Yes, I think your guess is correct. Magical potions are for magical girls, and in most people's minds, magical girls are all female. Perhaps Barbara added ingredients that can stimulate estrogen production when she was making the potions, which would make the magical girls' skin smoother after their metabolism..."

Does that mean it also has beauty and hair removal benefits?

I said urgently, "Then you have to think of something! If this keeps up, I won't be able to see Seruno..."

"I'll go ask for you."

I cautioned him, "Whatever you do, don't reveal that I'm a man."

"Strange, it's been five days already, why hasn't the medicine worn off yet?"

Yin Wei muttered something and hung up the phone.

She didn't seem to know much about potions either.

The stubble actually makes me look much cleaner, but it also makes me look more feminine. Even though I'm dressed in men's clothing and standing in the men's restroom, people who come in always give me a second glance...

Tsk, I can't transform for a while.

Although Spica asked everyone to patrol the city so that they could get to the scene as soon as possible, Changkong City is so big that there is very little that only twenty or so magical girls can do.

Besides, without the means to distinguish special people, we wouldn't recognize them even if we brushed past them on the street!

"I am back."

Despite saying that, there was no one at home.

Aunt Yuehan and Seruno were both called by Spica to do experiments; Falcon and Yangyan were looking for suitable part-time jobs on the job posting board in front of the subway station.

At this moment, only the Golden Ship was waiting for me at home.

"Wang~"

"Hey! Ah Huang, look what I bought for you!"

Original cut steak.

Although it's the same quality you can buy in a supermarket, it's still a high price of 188 yuan originally, and 79 yuan after the discount... At least it's a high price for me. If Sirius hadn't given me some living expenses, I really wouldn't have been willing to buy it.

"Woof!!"

The dog propped itself up and waved its paws at me.

"So, should I chop it into minced meat and make it into a hamburger patty, or do you want to eat it whole, bone and all?"

It brought its own bowl and dropped it in front of me.

"Hmph, are you asking me to hand you the whole piece of meat?"

"Wang!"

It can not only understand what I say, but I can also hear affirmation in its calls.

So smart, so smart, no wonder it's a dog worth 400,000 US dollars.

I couldn't resist rubbing the head of the Golden Ship's blond fur; it felt wonderful to the touch.

"Didn't you want to lose weight? This was originally bought for you, so there's no need to rush. I'll cut it in half and put it in the fridge. You can eat half today and the other half tomorrow. In the end, it's all yours, okay?"

"Wang!"

"You seem to have a really good relationship with the Golden Ship?"

An unexpected sound.

From Sirius, which appeared in the house at some unknown time.

"Wait, what are you doing here?"

They must have climbed in through the living room balcony window.

"Don't be so surprised~ Spica is using Seruno-chan for human experiments, and I couldn't bear to watch, so I came out on patrol."

"This is illegal trespassing! And what kind of human experimentation is this?!"

"Calm down. I've come to you because I need you to do something for me."

I thought for a moment and asked, "Is it something that the association... or SPica can't know?"

"Liu can be of help with this."

"That stupid wolf?"

“Special oddballs are oddballs, and there’s no reason why his dog nose wouldn’t be able to smell the scent of oddballs, their own kind, and the other side of the world.”

That guy did say his nose was very good.

"If you ask me where he is, I can tell you, he's under the bridge at the intersection of areas C2 and D3..."

Sirius extended his index finger and pressed it against my lips.

Although her appearance was just a facade, it was soft and delicate, and even carried a pleasant perfume scent.

I wiped my mouth and backed away, but Sirius smiled with his eyes half-closed.

“The information you provided is outdated. I know where he is, but I’m being watched by Spica right now and it’s inconvenient for me to see him. Go and bring him out, then search the area where the ‘void wormhole’ occurred… I’ll give you a cash bonus after you’re done.”

Red envelope?!

Ding-dong, a special mission has been triggered:

Sirius's request.

Go to the designated location to pick up a sniffer dog?

Although the red envelopes are tempting, I just decided not to change my appearance for the next few days, so I'm somewhat resistant to this task... It's like someone determined to lose weight suddenly encountering a free Wagyu beef buffet.
