Living with a magical girl, but a weirdo cadre

　The gas exchange during respiration also occurs directly through a part of these magical systems... achieving absolute super-oxygenation.

　At this moment, Lan Tianzhu's body was surprisingly efficient, almost like that of a synthetic cyborg.

　It's purely a weapon of war.

　“Chew, chew, chew—”

　Seeing Lan Tianzhu chewing on vitamin gummies, Cong Yu carefully took her hand and walked with her on the way home.

　You really need to be careful, otherwise Lan Tianzhu, who doesn't watch where she's going, could easily bump into something and start a fire.

　Lan Tianzhu's hands were very warm.

　It got so hot that you could feel a slight burning sensation... Of course, for non-humans, it wouldn't be unbearable.

　"Would you like a taste?"

　As he said this, Lan Tianzhu took a piece of candy and held it to Cong Yu's lips: "It's sweet and sour, and quite delicious."

　Cong Yu, who had pulled Lan Tianzhu across the road, didn't feel she had any reason to refuse... It was indeed a bittersweet experience.

　Chewing on a vitamin candy, Cong Yu looked at Lan Tianzhu, who was sucking his fingers...

　No, girl, this is way too much.

　"..." In silence, Cong Yu sighed: "Lan Tianzhu, you heard that too... For a while afterward, you should use Jieyuan·Huihuang less."

　Just like when fitness enthusiasts overdo it, leading to excessive lactic acid buildup and severe muscle tears.

　The fact that Lan Tianzhu's skin has become fragile can be seen as a result of "overdoing fitness".

　It's not unreasonable to think of the proliferation of the demon-like tissue in her body as muscle growth after exercise... or rather, that explanation is simpler and easier to understand.

　She's doing too much self-harm.

　"Yes, I know... After that, using regular fire spells will be enough to deal with some situations."

　Lan Tianzhu listened to the medical staff quite well. She took a deep breath as she said this: "However, if it is necessary, I will still use it without hesitation."

　She spoke so calmly, yet there was a resolute determination in her eyes that contradicted that calmness, and perhaps that was the belief she had decided upon.

　If you decide to pursue your benefactor, then pursue them; if you decide to seek revenge, then seek revenge; if you realize you can't pull the trigger, then give up; if you discover your benefactor has fallen into depravity, then try to win them back... Follow your own will, regardless of your own self.

　“I am already at dawn, Cong Yu.”

　As he said this, Lan Tianzhu decided to put it out in advance: "I will not back down at any time... Taking a step back means the night has already passed."

　As he said this, Lan Tianzhu waited for Cong Yu's rebuttal.

　But it didn't happen.

　"Well, if you feel it's 'necessary,' then go ahead and do it... I know, Nagisa Azuma."

　As she said this, Cong Yu placed her hand on Lan Tianzhu's head, just like she would pat Xiao Cui's head or the doctor's head.

　Come to think of it, is this the first time Cong Yu has touched Lan Tianzhu's head?

　No, it seems like he touched her head once at the beach... but he rarely touches Azuma Nagisa's head, after all, she's neither a little girl nor a big dog.

　(Yaochuan Guang: Hehehe! I'm a loli!)

　(Xiao Cui: As long as Yao Chuan is happy.)

　……

　“I understand you… You are never a coward, Blue Sky Nagisa.”

　As she said this, Cong Yu looked at Lan Tianzhu, who was determined to steal a man (herself) even if it meant betraying her friendship with Xiao Guang: "Never."

　Lan Tianzhu, whose thinking is always very realistic, always walks on unrealistic paths, seeking things that are impossible to achieve even in mere imagination.

　The lighter, funnier stories include one about secretly sleeping with Cong Yu behind Yao Chuan Guang's back, and another about wanting to save money to buy a big house in Central City...

　Honestly, it's quite difficult for her to afford it.

　More serious ones include things like, "Kill the snake man and avenge Crimson Senior!" and "We must persuade Crimson Senior to leave the monster group."

　Is a rational compromise contradictory to an irrational demand?

　maybe……

　But without a doubt, Nagisa Azuma will not back down. She is a natural-born magical girl, just like in the manga, needing no embellishment.

　Even if she ends up on a side road, she'll charge forward with a vengeance. She'll either smash through the wall back to the main road, or she'll smash through the south wall.

　Or perhaps, beneath a calm expression, she was reduced to ashes by the flames in her own eyes… There were flames in her eyes.

　Cowardice will not be tolerated.

　"..."

　"You really understand me... Cong Yu."

　Lan Tianzhu sighed and couldn't help but hug Cong Yu's arm... but sorry, Cong Yu couldn't feel it.

　I can't feel anything, I can't feel anything at all.

　Nagisa Azumi is only slightly better than Ayase Mitsuji... maybe it's just the difference between a flat file and a round file.

　The only thing you can feel is the intense heat and the scalding temperature.

　"Of course, everyone knows that I, Cong Yu, am the most understanding person... the most understanding person."

　Cong Yu, as always, used her usual formula to boast about herself, while Lan Tianzhu nodded and pressed, "So, when did you and..."

　"Xiao Guang is getting married? That would make my future plans easier."

　"..." So urgent?!

　Cong Yu twitched her lips, and finally said frankly to Lan Tianzhu, "To be honest, it's a bit difficult, because if I get married, even if it's just a formal wedding... one of my friends won't let me off the hook."

　Unless it's a real wedding where everyone is wearing wedding dresses, which is somewhat immoral and goes against the code of honor.

　Otherwise, the Snow Woman will definitely go berserk.

　As for Cong Yu, although Lan Tianzhu was urging her to get married so that she could have an affair, he was surprisingly pleased.

　Cong Yu was willing to say this, to tell her the truth, and she didn't complain about any "follow-up plans" or anything like that.

　What does this mean?

　This clearly shows that they have already included her in their harem, or even made her a so-called harem advisor, a blue-headed strategist!

　Haha, we won! Qin Shi Huang ate Sichuan peppercorns—he was numb from winning!

　Lan Tianzhu couldn't help but burst into laughter on the spot, the laughter almost shattering her poker face, but just then...

　"..."

　"Oh?"

　As if sensing something, Cong Yu suddenly looked into the distance... Immediately afterward, Lan Tianzhu also felt the extremely exaggerated expansion of the magic power.

　Like a torrent, it displays its existence wantonly and eccentrically.

　The approaching emerald storm.

　"Xiao Cui?!"

　Chapter 585 Will the world sing haiku?

　Kazuki Rusui is twelve years old and a first-year student at Fudo Middle School.

　It's a magical girl.

　She has a good relationship with "Nagashima" and once thwarted the American magical girl's attempt to capture "Nagashima"... so she can be the one to target.

　This is a magical girl disguised as a human.

　Their strength is probably, as one can imagine, quite weak...

　Well, it's obvious what the "cushion" and the "clown" should be judging... at least that's what the Americans who work with them say.

　However, the leader of the 17th Group is not a clown.

　Leaving aside the fact that even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit... Fuuto is the territory of the King of Fuuto, and Japan has already banned the activities of the weirdo group.

　In other words, we must deploy our strongest forces and capture Rusui Kazuki as quickly as possible.

　Otherwise, if the matter were to reach the Emperor, it would be considered a complete betrayal... and they might be purged just like the 21st Group.

　The King of Fengdu is still very vengeful.

　He's so petty...

　The leader of Group 17 thought to himself, inwardly criticizing the King of Wind City's magnanimity. If he were the king, he would command the groups around him with the magnanimity of a true king... every single one of these eccentric groups.

　By gathering strength, they could then rival the emperor...

　This is the thought process of Buster Pfister, the leader of the Seventeenth Group, and his ultimate pursuit.

　"Are you ready? The boss said the money has already been transferred to your group's account... As long as you control Kazuki Rusui, you don't need to worry about anything else."

　"The broadcast has been disrupted, and the target is now isolated. We can make our move."

　On the other end of the phone, a male translator's voice came through, while a strange female executive beside the leader of the Seventeenth Group impatiently scolded, "Stop talking nonsense. You say we'll do it, so we'll do it. Otherwise, stop giving us advice."

　This attitude left the "boss" on the other end of the phone somewhat speechless.

　As a group of eccentric individuals, the Seventeenth Group only needed to consider tying up Rusui Kazuki and delivering her, while he, as the mastermind behind it all, had to consider many more things.

　"Then let's get started, right now."

　Following the instructions over the phone, these eccentric members of the Seventeenth Group hung up with sinister smiles and looked at the little girl outside the van.

　Kazuki Rusui was walking home with her schoolbag on her back.

　As for the leader, who was eager to get started, one of the eccentric executives lazily stretched and said, "Boss, are we really just going to cooperate like this?"

　"You know, this friend of Rusui Kazuki is none other than 'Nagashima,' who can see through disguises. If we get her… ruling the world will be a piece of cake."

　"Yeah, boss, are we really going to cooperate?"

　"..."

　"What a joke."

　The leader of the Seventeenth Group responded to his subordinates with a mocking expression: "The money has been deposited. After kidnapping Ruku, whether or not to hand her over is up to us... Now, let's go!"

　Upon receiving their boss's order, the three cadres showed excited expressions and rushed out of the van almost instantly.

　"Oh hoo!"

　"Rule the world!"

　"Long live the boss!"

　As they cheered, Xiao Cui, the target of their attack, immediately raised her head the moment she noticed the commotion.

　Then, his pupils contracted instantly.

　An enemy... a weirdo...

　Two women and one man, three strange beings, each gathering their magical power, were preparing to unleash an attack... without a doubt, their target was her.

　"!!!" Xiao Cui's eyes widened instantly as she hurriedly dodged the flames thrown by the lizard monster. The fireball exploded around her as it flew by.

　"boom!!!"

　With a loud, fiery explosion, smoke and dust quickly buried Xiao Cui's figure, and her schoolbag, which had exploded violently, instantly became...

　The fragmentation.

　The homework, only half-finished, instantly turned into a sky full of papers, fluttering in the air.

　The phone in the bag was also destroyed by the flamethrower... broken parts were scattered all over the ground.

　"..."

　"solved?"

　The female lizard monster said this, while the two monsters beside her, whose specific forms were not clearly discernible, immediately curled their lip in disapproval.

　If it wasn't said, it might have been resolved.

　However, the fact that they've already opened their mouths indicates that the problem remains unresolved.

　Even modern eccentrics understand what a "flag" is.
