Tang Cao opened her mouth, but she knew that the more she made up, the more mistakes she would make, so she just lowered her head and spoke in a low voice.

"Okay, I admit, Xiaobai is not a stray cat. I bought her from a pet store."

Before he finished speaking, the white cat, which had just been quiet for a while, became angry again.

"I already told you that Shiro shouldn't even be called a name!!"

Chapter 22 Xiaobai

Can you buy a spiritual animal with awakened intelligence from a pet store?

If this is true, then Tang Zijun should consider whether the store owner has a portable pet system for all worlds.

Tang Zijun glanced lightly at Tang Cao, who was lying without blushing and trying to get away with it, and shook his head helplessly, not knowing what to say for a moment.

According to the currently known information, transforming into a magical girl will not cause any damage to lifespan, and these spirit beasts do not seem to pose much of a threat. At least, this white cat did not approach my sister with any intention.

On this basis, there is only one problem that bothers Tang Zijun - is it really okay to let his sister become a magical girl who fights against evil?

This matter has its pros and cons. The advantage is that Tang Cao will gain a certain self-protection ability. Even if the monsters created by negative energy come to the door, Tang Cao, which can transform, has the power to fight against them.

But the disadvantage is that once you embark on this path, there is no turning back. Unless one of the parties is completely destroyed, the struggle will continue indefinitely.

And the most important thing is that fighting monsters is not as easy as you think. Those guys will do all kinds of things without any bottom line.

They have long lost their humanity and will do anything to achieve their goals. They may even threaten the people around Tang Cao. Oh, the people around her are herself, so it's okay.

After a dry cough, Tang Zijun squatted down and stretched out his hand towards the white cat.

"Come, come and touch it."

'Touch you big head ghost!'

The white cat was panting and staring at the male human opposite with eyes full of disgust.

Seeing that the kitten was quite hostile towards him, Tang Zijun felt a little embarrassed. He had never raised a cat before. He had wanted to raise a dog before, but he gave up after Tang Cao moved in.

Growing a Tang grass is enough to make him tired.

The little white cat lowered its body, ready to strike the male human with its claws at any time if he dared to do anything to it.

But soon, she noticed that Tang Cao behind Tang Zijun was winking at her.

That was the plan they had discussed before returning home. In order to allow Xiaobai (although the white cat did not recognize this name) to live in the house perfectly, she had to get Tang Zijun's approval.

To this end, Tang Cao constantly made suggestions and came up with various solutions.

"I'm telling you, Xiaobai, my brother is the softest-hearted person. As long as you act pitiful and try to get close to him, I guarantee he'll definitely agree to let you move in."

"No man can resist the coquettishness of a cute kitten. If there is one, then you should meow a few more times with your throat pinched."

"I believe you can do it. Come on, this is all for our future plans. You can't just come and scratch my window every time you sense an outsider demon."

Tang Cao's warnings were still echoing in the white cat's head.

Looking at Tang Cao who had clasped his fingers together and was making a gesture of asking in the air, he glanced at Tang Zijun who was obviously beginning to feel embarrassed.

"That's all. I'm just trying to survive."

The white cat gritted its teeth.

"It seems that this little white cat doesn't like me a little bit." Tang Zijun stood up, turned around and shrugged at Tang Cao.

Immediately afterwards, Tang Zijun suddenly felt something wriggling in his calf.

Looking down, I saw that the little white cat that was breathing at me just now was now rubbing against my trouser legs, giving me a feeling of "you and I are the best in the world".

Before Tang Zijun could react, he heard Tang Cao clapping his hands.

"Look, bro, how much Xiaobai likes you!"

The corners of Tang Zijun's mouth twitched.

I would have believed it if I hadn't been able to hear this stupid cat grinding its teeth.

Tang Cao immediately struck while the iron was hot, ran over, grabbed Tang Zijun's hand and began to shake it.

"Please, brother, you're the best brother in the world."

"Just let me keep her. I've already bought her, I can't just return her. Look how tiny she is, she's so pitiful."

Tang Cao was holding his hand from above, and the white cat was rubbing his trouser legs from below. Tang Zijun's body was a little stiff, and he almost got bitten by the other party.

Looking at Tang Cao's pleading face, Tang Zijun sighed deeply.

"Okay, I can raise it."

"yeah!!"

"But! Don't be too happy yet." Tang Zijun pulled his hand away and said seriously. "I don't care if you feed stray cats normally, but once they're home, it's a different story."

Having said that, Tang Zijun sat back in his chair and asked Tang Cao to sit down as well.

"This kitten is a life after all. If you want to raise it, you must take responsibility. The usual cat food, cat litter, deworming, and snacks all cost money. Since your main job right now is studying, we have to agree on some rules."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you as long as you can support me." Tang Cao supported his chin with both hands, his face full of excitement.

Seeing her expression, Tang Zijun expressed doubt, but still spoke.

"There's something I must say upfront. You can't let your studies interfere with raising a cat. You must be in the top three in your grade in every monthly exam."

"It's simple, I'm always number one~"

Tang Cao raised his chin confidently.

Tang Cao is indeed confident about studying. Maybe it's because of her talent, but she always has a special skill of being able to learn anything. What's more powerful is that she can remember everything she sees.

"One more thing." Tang Zijun held up another finger. "After you get a cat, you have to start learning how to do housework. I don't want to have to clean for you and the cat at the same time every day."

"No problem! Leave it to me, I promise to clean the house thoroughly." Tang Cao patted his chest.

"you sure?"

Tang Zijun frowned slightly and looked at Tang Cao. He had heard these words many times in the past six months.

"Definitely this time!" Tang Cao raised his thumb solemnly.

Seeing this, Tang Zijun burst out laughing.

"Okay then, let's just take care of it first."

"yeah!!"

Hearing that Tang Zijun finally gave in, Tang Cao immediately smiled with great victory.

After making sure that it could stay, the little white cat jumped onto the sofa and started to groom its hair away from Tang Zijun.

"This palace is dirty."

Noticing that the little white cat had two faces, Tang Zijun raised the corner of his mouth, turned to look at Tang Cao, and asked casually.

"By the way, have you named this white cat?"

Before he finished speaking, the little white cat's ears stood up like antennas.

Hearing this, Tang Cao spoke while eating rice.

"Of course I've thought about it. I'm going to call her Xiaobai. Doesn't that sound nice?"

"What a nice-sounding rat tail! I've already said that 'Xiaobai' can't even be considered a name!"

"It sounds good, that's it."

"You XX!!"

Chapter 23 The Mystery of the Heretic

Xiaobai's name has been decided so hastily. Although she is very resistant to this name, neither Tang Zijun nor Tang Cao has any intention of changing it.

In fact, Tang Zijun had no objection to letting Xiaobai, the spirit beast, live in his home.

Instead of letting her stay outside and disappear with her sister all the time, it is better to let her stay under my nose. This way, it will be easier for me to monitor their actions.

It was one thing to agree with her sister being a magical girl, but it was another to approve of her becoming a magical girl.

Although Tang Cao's performance in her first battle was remarkable and she seemed to have good fighting talent, her fighting style was still too immature for the battle-hardened Tang Zijun.

Tang Cao's advantage is that she is good at planning. During the battle, she can often judge the opponent's next move very well, just like playing chess, calculating the opponent's strategy and preparing in advance.

But this also exposed her shortcomings, that is, Tang Cao is only good at facing the current environment. When plans change or unexpected things happen, Tang Cao will often start to make trouble.

This also proves that Tang Cao's ability to adapt to changing circumstances is relatively poor.

What you also need to learn is observation of the environment, that is, to listen to all directions and look in all directions. Before any battle begins, you can't even tell how many enemies there are, which will obviously put yourself in a dangerous situation.

The previous battle is a good example.

Just a puppet deceived Tangcao and Xiaobai. It would be fine if Xiaobai was a spirit beast that only followed its perception, but as a magical girl who was mainly responsible for combat, Tangcao had to consider all possibilities.

In fact, this also has something to do with experience and experience.

When you notice a negative energy output with an energy intensity of ten, but when you arrive at your destination you find that there is only an outsider demon with an energy intensity of seven or eight at the scene, you should have realized that something is wrong at this time.

However, the above points can still be learned. As long as you have enough combat experience, you can slowly develop them.

Tang Zijun felt that Tang Cao's main problem was that her use of magic power was still too immature. To put it simply, her skill tree was not fully unlocked.

Although he is not very familiar with the profession of magical girl, Tang Zijun believes that the power of a real magical girl is definitely not as simple as using magic attributes to shoot lasers.

These people were able to use magic to fight the heretics for so long, and it was definitely not just a matter of waving a wand.

Thinking of this, Tang Zijun leaned against the head of the bed and picked up a piece of black gem fragment that looked like coal.

Dark Crystal?

This was left behind after the previous crab monster died. It should be the main source of energy for the Outer Demons and also the source of their life.

However, the dark crystal in Tang Zijun's hand has completely lost its energy response and looks like a piece of stone fragment.

Looking at the strange crystal fragments that didn't even reflect light under the bedroom light, Tang Zijun frowned slightly.

In his early years, when he fought against the Greedy Man in the Mirror Plane, similar residues appeared after the other party's death. However, the difference was that the residues left behind by the Greedy Man when he died were various transparent crystals.

Tang Zijun didn't know what the crystals were made of. He only knew that they couldn't be sold for much money and their only use was as bottom sand in fish tanks.

There is no way to investigate how the reversed world was created. It seems that from the moment the world was born, a reversed world corresponding to the real world was born.

The reversed world is like a mirror reflection of the real world. It is similar to the real world but has no contact with it. Without special powers, you will never be involved in that realm in your life.

What Tang Zijun knew was that whenever a certain scene was created in the real world, a completely opposite existence would be born in the reversed world. Similarly, when something in reality was destroyed, the replica in the reversed world would also dissipate.

This cycle continued for a long time until the negative energy floating in the inverted world reached a threshold.

At the beginning, there was no life in the reverse world, only an infinite cycle of energy and emotion.

When the negative energy of the real world reaches a certain level and affects the reversed world, the first greedy person is born.

He absorbed endless lies and negative energy. From the moment he was born into this world, he had completely lost all positive emotions as a human being. Instead, his body was filled with evil thoughts.

Jealousy, deception, disguise, bloodlust, and all the darkest emotions imaginable are the source of that guy's power, and that guy is also the creator of the mirror plane and the god of all greedy people.

Turning his gaze back to the dark crystal in his hand, Tang Zijun's eyes gradually became deeper.

Since they are all enemies of the magical girl camp, in a sense, these outsider demons from the other world may also have similarities with the greedy people in the mirror plane.

According to the information revealed by the crab monsters, the Outer Demons and the Greedy Ones know each other's existence, and they have the same goal, which is to invade the real world and seize more energy.

In this early stage, they are both in the same camp and enemies in competition.

Just like what the crab monster said, the cake is only so big. If the outsider demon eats a few more bites, the greedy person will naturally have less.

No wonder the heretic demons are unaware of the details of the Greedy Man's demise. Perhaps for them, the absence of the Greedy Man would make their hunting area larger.

In this situation, it would be good enough if they didn't set off firecrackers to celebrate. How could they take the initiative to find out how the greedy man disappeared?

But then again, logically speaking, the entire Greedy Organization was completely destroyed by himself. Such a big event has already caused a shock in the magical girl circle, and the Outer Path Demon should not have taken no action.

So is there still a secret that I haven't noticed yet?

Lying quietly on the bed, staring at the ceiling expressionlessly, Tang Zijun felt a ripple in his heart.

In addition to the mysterious inner world, there was another thing that he couldn't understand.

After fighting with those guys from the mirror plane for so long, Tang Zijun had never seen any greedy person appear in the sunlight, not even a replica or a greedy person possessed by a human being could do this.
