I'm Xiaoyuan. I'm really sorry.

She turned the shield, time stopped, and she jumped onto a platform and headed towards Xiaoyuan's house.

Chapter 20 Tell the truth

After watching Homura Akemi leave the cake shop, he continued to work in the back garden.

Since he was already living with Homura Akemi, why did he still come to the cake shop to help?

The answer is, nothing to do.

　 She really has nothing to do.

It's impossible to keep searching for witches.

That would be boring.

It’s nice to combine work and rest in a cake shop.

Not only can you enjoy free delicious cakes, but you can also slack off when there are no customers.

I think such days are pretty good.

At least during this time she didn't have to think about witches or magical girls...

"Xiaoyuan, please take this to the guest on the far left."

It was still that familiar word, and Miss Saki's voice came from behind her.

"Ok."

Sono responded as he took the tray from her.

Then he turned around and walked in the direction Ms. Sakisaki pointed.

……

……

After finishing another afternoon's work, Yuan prepared to go back to Homura Akemi's house.

After all, I promised Homura Akemi that I would stay with her.

The garden will not break the contract.

But before I go back, there is something I want to tell Ai Shengxuan.

That is the truth about witches and magical girls.

After all, Ai Shengxuan is the first friend Yuan made since coming to this world.

Some things have to be said.

As for why she didn't say it before, it was not because she felt that Ai Shengxuan was too fragile inside.

It was because she wanted to give Ai Shengxuan some buffer time.

It’s both a magical girl and the truth about the witch.

It wasn't suitable when Ai Shengxuan Liu Linger Wo Umbrella IVVIII Sudera first found out that she was a magical girl.

The gradual increase in information takes time.

But now it’s different. Since I’m planning to tell her, there’s naturally nothing to hesitate about.

In s0, Ai Shengxuan was quite optimistic.

Although he almost despaired in the end, he was much stronger than most people.

Now that the plot is getting closer, even if Yuan doesn't want to, he must tell her the truth.

If possible, Yuan still hopes that she can spend the Witch Night normally.

But this timeline is too strange, and it is possible that Witch Night will also become weird.

To cope, she had to use all the strength she could think of.

Only then can we ensure that nothing goes wrong.

Love-induced dizziness is one of them.

After saying goodbye to Miss Sakisaki, Sono walked up to Ai Sheng Xuan and said, "Xuan, come with me. I have something important to tell you."

"Ok?"

Ai Shengxuan, who was about to leave, tilted his head in confusion, but still followed obediently.

Since Yuan said he had something to tell me, there must be a reason.

On the way to Ai Shengxuan's house, Yuan soon spoke:

"I have something to tell you, but you don't have to listen. This is your right."

"Because the following conversation may not be so..."

"Yuan...Yuan-san, why are you so serious all of a sudden? Did something happen?"

After interrupting Yuan, Ai Shengxuan didn't take her words to heart, but just said with considerable concern.

Yuan Ye just thought that she didn't understand what he meant.

He continued, "My point is very simple. You have the right to choose whether to listen to the conversation that follows, because there is an abyss ahead."

After hearing what Yuan said, Ai Shengxuan was stunned and had no idea what the other person was talking about.

What to choose to listen to or not to listen to?

Ai Shengxuan had no idea what was going on.

But looking at Yuan's serious expression.

Ai Shengxuan began to think about what Yuan said.

After a while, she decided to listen to what Yuan had to say first: "Then go ahead, Yuan."

"You don't have to call me Yuan-san anymore. You can call me Yuan now."

After correcting Ai Shengxuan's address, Sono continued, "Do you know the relationship between magical girls and witches?"

"I remember you told me that magical girls spread hope, while witches spread despair."

"Witches usually hide in their own barrier, but they will lure ordinary people into the barrier and then suck their life force."

"And the magical girl and the witch fought to obtain the Seed of Sorrow and purify the filth of the Soul Gem..."

Ai Shengxuan nodded and told her what Yuansuo had told her before.

Sonoya agrees, but then changes the subject: "But it's actually just a scam."

"scam?"

Ai Shengxuan didn't know why Yuan said this.

"Yes, the truth that Kyubey or the Incubator is hiding."

Ai Shengxuan didn't know what Kyubey and Incubator were, but she always felt that they were familiar.

It seems like I've heard it somewhere before.

Even what Yuan said before seemed like something I had heard somewhere before.

But I just can't remember where it is.

There seemed to be something "blank" in her mind, making her unable to remember it.

But before she could think about anything, Yuan's next words made her suddenly look up and widen her eyes.

"Becoming a witch is the end of a magical girl. When the filth in a magical girl's soul gem reaches its limit, the magical girl will hatch and become a witch."

Yuan no longer beat around the bush and said it directly.

Ai Shengxuan stood there in a daze, obviously unable to recover from the huge amount of information, and stared blankly at Yuan.

"How, how could this happen?"

After a long time, Ai Shengxuan murmured.

I wasn't too shocked, as if I had heard such words before.

But when she learned from Yuan that she was a magical girl, and then learned the truth about magical girls from Yuan, she didn't know what to say for a moment.

"I'm sorry, if I hadn't pulled you into this world, you probably wouldn't know any of this. You'd still be that socially anxious Aisei Hyun, that cake shop clerk, and that ordinary student from Mitakihara."

"But eventually, you will still transform into a witch because you need magic to maintain your daily body."

If Madoka didn't become a god in the end, then becoming a witch would be the final destination of magical girls.

Although the Law of the Circle exists, witches still exist in this timeline, and there is no trace of monsters or nightmares.

That proves that this is a singularity that even gods cannot interfere with, just like the city of Kamihama in the Magical Era world.

"Yuan, have you always known this?"

Ai Shengxuan, who had recovered, asked Yuan.

"Yes, I always knew that."

Yuan did not hide anything from Ai Shengxuan, her first friend in this world.

If possible, she still hopes that Ai Shengxuan will not know this.

Sometimes, ignorance can be a kind of bliss.

But she still told Ai Shengxuan.

Just don't want to cheat.

She didn't want to be like Kyubey, only revealing information that was beneficial to her.

"Then why are you telling me now?"

Ai Shengxuan felt a little sad, but he had no intention of blaming Yuan. It was not Yuan's fault, but the fault of the one called Kyubey by Yuan.

Although she didn't know what it was.

"If possible, I would like to keep it secret forever."

"But time doesn't allow it. In about a month, this city will usher in Witch Night."

After a moment of silence, Yuan said to Ai Shengxuan.

"Witch Night?"

Chapter 21: No More Failure

Witch Night.

Ai Shengxuan didn't know what Witch Night was, but she still had an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.

I seem to have heard it somewhere before.

"The Stage Device Witch, a super-powerful witch, will destroy the entire city when it arrives."

Sono continued to explain: "The only ones who can stop it are magical girls. Humans can't observe it at all and just think it's a special weather phenomenon..."

"But how can we stop it?"

"Sono, you said that only magical girls can stop it, but can we really defeat it just by ourselves?"

For some reason, she seemed to have seen many scenes of failure.

I tried hard to recall but couldn't remember anything.

"Yes, it must be possible!"

Yuan believes that there must be some meaning for his coming to this world.

Even this is a timeline where God cannot interfere.

She will surely lead everyone through the Witch's Night and usher in the bright sunshine of May.

Looking at the determined eyes, hope rose in Ai Shengxuan's heart.

She seemed to see a shadow appear on Yuan's body.

She was a girl who looked a little different from Yuan at the moment but very similar in appearance.

Behind her were illusory white wings, long pink hair, and golden eyes, making her look like a gentle and beautiful deity.

As if noticing Ai Shengxuan's gaze, the gentle god smiled at her, and then made a "hush" gesture with his right index finger, looking a little naughty and cute.
