Question: How to make a Magic Girl fall into an awkward situation?
The moment Su Tianqing saw this question, the scene from last night flashed through her mind:
Magical Girl Hyacinth was captured by the Monster, losing her usual agility, leaving only terror and panic, wailing helplessly under the moonlight.
That scene was truly wonderful.
But Su Tianqing herself knew very well that yesterday's situation was entirely achieved with the help of the enhanced Black Wolf Monster, not her own true strength.
Today, the secret codex did not report the location of any Monster appearances, which meant she could only rely on her own power to complete these two daily tasks.
"This is difficult."
The Golden Fox, wearing a satin ribbon dress, sat atop a high-rise building, her two small feet dangling in the air, swaying lightly in the wind.
She was indeed a villain, and her life experience after rebirth was quite rich, but her experience as a Magic Girl was far from comparable to that Hyacinth.
With her rookie strength, it was clearly unrealistic to make her fall into an awkward situation in a head-on confrontation; she had to use a trick.
Repeatedly flipping through the secret codex, looking at that shocking line about box attacks, a dangerous thought popped into Su Tianqing's mind.
If Ben Hu were to expose Hyacinth's true name… wouldn't that create a huge awkward situation for her…?
But this thought was only momentary and was quickly thrown to the back of Fox Fox's mind.
What a joke! I'm a villain, not chaotic evil! I definitely can't do something like doxing!
Giving up the dangerous idea of doxing the Magic Girl, Fox Fox once again stared at the secret codex in her hand with a troubled expression, even her ears and tail drooped.
"It seems I can only spend some divine code stone to avert disaster," Su Tianqing murmured to herself.
Flipping a few pages back in the secret codex, several lines of small text appeared before Fox Fox's eyes.
【Monster Enhancement Potion A: 50 divine code stone】
【Enhances a Monster in all aspects and grants a powerful summoning ability】
This was the enhancement potion she bought yesterday, but unfortunately, no Monster appeared in Rong City today, so it was useless to buy it. She should look at the next one.
【Portable Camera: 50 divine code stone】
【A magic camera that requires no charging, comes with a video website account that hides your true identity】
"...Ah?"
Without the slightest hesitation, after expressing her confusion with a light, questioning cry, Su Tianqing decisively bought it.
Make videos!
Why hadn't she thought of this?
Recording the Magic Girl being schemed against with the magic camera, then uploading it with this identity-concealing account, wouldn't it be easy to get 100 people to see it?
I'm a genius!
But even after solving the prerequisite for the second task, the question of "how to make a Magic Girl awkward" still lingered in Su Tianqing's mind like a nightmare.
She still had 200 divine code stone in her pocket; the 100 she got from yesterday's task had already been completely squandered, so she had to be frugal and use them carefully.
While playing with the small, winged camera, Fox Fox's gaze moved across the pages of the secret codex, looking at the next item that could be purchased with divine code stone.
【Monster Capsule · Random: 100 divine code stone】
【A capsule that can randomly summon a Monster】
It seemed useful and could be combined with the enhancement potion, but spending 150 for two single-use items was a bit too luxurious.
Ben Hu would only get 200 from completing today's two daily tasks! Ben Hu would not do business at a loss!
Su Tianqing's gaze continued to slide down.
【Immobilization Trap: 100 divine code stone】
【Sets up a trigger-activated immobilization trap that can be reused and can immobilize for up to 1 hour】
Hmm… a reusable trap…
Su Tianqing pinched her chin, her tail swaying from side to side, deep in thought.
She finally understood the predicament faced by villains in shonen stories.
They had too few cards in their hand!
But if this immobilization trap could be reused, even if it seemed a bit weak, it was definitely superior to the Monster Capsule of the same price in terms of cost-effectiveness.
Su Tianqing's eyes darted.
As long as she personally operated it, this immobilization trap, which seemed a bit useless… might actually be able to do something amazing.
. .
Evening.
Rong City Huatianli Community, inside a bedroom of a private residence.
A girl in a nightgown sat at her desk, writing furiously.
Today was August 31st, one day before school started.
Nan Xiaofeng, or rather, Magical Girl Hyacinth, was in the midst of catching up on her homework.
"I can't finish it! Why is there still so much?!"
The girl's wail came from the bedroom. If a certain villainous Fox Fox were present, she would probably recognize that the sound was no different from when she was restrained last night.
The White Sable Spirit lay on the bed, clutching Nan Xiaofeng's phone, idly scrolling through videos. Hearing a wail from outside her headphones, she couldn't help but look over, then sighed deeply.
"Alas…"
"I've told you countless times, Xiaofeng, to finish your homework early, but you just wouldn't listen."
"Now look, school starts tomorrow, you'll have to work until midnight today, won't you?"
"Can you blame me?!… It's all, it's all that Monster's fault last night!"
Nan Xiaofeng turned around and yelled angrily, but a blush crept onto her face.
—Last night, Magical Girl Hyacinth went to Green Heart Park to fight a Monster, was ambushed by an unknown Magic Girl, and was only rescued by the Hero Association seven hours later after they realized the situation.
It wasn't that the Hero Association was inefficient; she was so focused on breaking free and leaving that she didn't even think about calling for help. The Association only sent a hero on duty to investigate because they hadn't received a mission report for a long time, and then they stumbled upon her disheveled state.
Thinking of her awkward appearance at the time, Nan Xiaofeng just wanted to burrow into the cracks in the floor tiles.
The bedroom was silent for a long time, with only the faint sound of a pen scratching paper.
"...That golden-haired girl, how much do you know, Bai Ling?"
Suddenly, Nan Xiaofeng blurted out this question.
The White Sable Spirit was stunned, silently turned off her phone, took off her headphones, and looked at the girl at the desk.
"The golden-haired girl… are you talking about the one from last night…?"
"Yes, that unfamiliar Magic Girl." Nan Xiaofeng nodded.
Her adorable appearance was still etched in Nan Xiaofeng's mind. Although she was unwilling to admit it, Nan Xiaofeng clearly knew—she was cuter than herself.
But that devilish, cunning, wicked smile also left a deep impression.
One side was an angel, the other was a devil.
One moment introducing herself in a voice as beautiful as a Nightingale, the next summoning disgusting, slimy tentacles to tie her up for an entire night.
And she even did that excessive thing!
"Um… to tell you the truth, Xiaofeng," the White Sable Spirit put down her phone, floated to Nan Xiaofeng's side, and said with a frown, "I don't know her. I only know of you as a Magic Girl in Rong City. I've never heard of any 'villain Magic Girl'."
"But she does have a guardian star, and she did call herself a 'villain'." Nan Xiaofeng replied.
The two looked at each other, silent, until finally, they said nothing more and went back to their respective tasks.
—Until the White Sable Spirit suddenly cried out.
"What?! This is…!"
"Bai Ling, don't yell, you're so annoying." Nan Xiaofeng said grumpily.
But Bai Ling flew to the desk with a shocked expression, holding up the phone in her hand to the hard-working Nan Xiaofeng.
"Xiaofeng, look! Look at this video!"
"I don't have time to look, I'm busy."
"This video is very important! You should watch it quickly!"
Bai Ling flapped her wings anxiously, forcefully shoving the phone into Nan Xiaofeng's hand.
The girl glared fiercely at the White Sable Spirit, reluctantly put down her fountain pen, took the headphones, put them on, and stared at the phone screen.
"Magic Girl Fox Fox Official?… Bai Ling, are you watching some strange streamer?"
"No! Look at her first video!"
Bai Ling reached out and pressed the phone screen, and the video started playing.
A delicate and lovely little face suddenly appeared on the screen, with soft golden bangs falling on her forehead and sides of her face, framing her pair of emerald eyes for the camera.
Nan Xiaofeng was suddenly stunned.
"She, she's the one from last night…!?"
"It's her! That Golden Magical Girl!"
"Oh, it's already started. Hello everyone, audience friends ~ I'm the recently dazzling Magic Girl Fox Fox! Ta-da!"
A soft, sweet voice, mixed with a hint of wind, and the adorable little fox in the camera revealed her full appearance. Only then did Nan Xiaofeng realize with surprise that she was floating above Rong City.
A few comments like "So cute" and "Is she a new Magic Girl?" flashed across the screen, but the video continued.
"Let me give everyone a simple self-introduction. I am from Rong City—a new villain Magic Girl."
"Recently, there's a Magic Girl named Hyacinth who's been very active in Rong City. Fox Fox, I'm especially, especially interested in this Miss Hyacinth."
"It's a pity that I didn't get to play enough with her last night in Green Heart Park, so…"
The Golden Magical Girl suddenly leaned closer to the camera, revealing her familiar smile once again.
"If Miss Hyacinth is watching this video, Fox Fox wants to tell you something."
"Tonight at seven, Rongcheng Third College of Arts and Sciences, we'll see each other there ~"
The Golden Fox made a cute gesture.
But then, as if remembering something, she muttered softly:
"Oh dear, if Fox Fox doesn't see Miss Hyacinth at seven o'clock…"
"Then, the teaching building of Rongcheng Third College of Arts and Sciences—will probably be razed to the ground ~"
The video ended.
Published at 3 PM on August 31st, with over 10,000 views and 100+ concurrent viewers.
Nan Xiaofeng glanced at the current time, 6:50.
Ten minutes until seven.
The girl suddenly stood up, grabbed the golden cross star from the table, and without waiting for Bai Ling to react, she flipped out the window and leaped!
Magical Girl Hyacinth—Transform!
A sky-blue light flashed and vanished, turning into a shooting star, speeding towards the school!
