It was eleven o'clock at night.
After Nan Jiayu sent her home, Su Tianqing immediately swapped places with her familiar, arriving at the familiar rooftop.
Before her lay a Pink-haired Rabbit Girl.
A pink Magic Girl.
To be honest, Su Tianqing felt that pink was simply too suitable as the standard color for a Magic Girl.
But this petite Rabbit Girl in front of her...
Su Tianqing felt that if it weren't for the faint Star Realm Magic emanating from her, she really wouldn't have been able to recognize her as a Magic Girl at first glance.
White flat-soled round-toed leather shoes, a pair of pristine white tights outlining the graceful curve of her long legs, a charmingly adorable maiden's attire.
But the clothes she was wearing were quite peculiar:
Pink, bunny girl attire.
The tight-fitting suit had a skirt hem at the waist, and the overall exposure was not high; in fact, it was quite low except for the arms, and her forearms were also covered by white gloves.
Compared to ordinary dresses, it was probably only different in terms of decoration.
"Although she's a bunny girl, she actually looks quite good," the Golden Fox murmured to herself.
But how did this newcomer appear? Where did she come from?
Observers shouldn't be developing villainous Magic Girls, so who exactly is she...?
"Awoo... wuwu, my head hurts..."
Perhaps having absorbed enough Star Realm Magic to move, the Rabbit Girl grunted twice, tried to shift her body, and struggled a few times.
Alas... who told Ben Hu that she was a kind Fox Fox? She couldn't bear to see such a painful sight!
Muttering to herself, Su Tianqing walked over and sat down gently beside her.
Such intense magical exhaustion; just by approaching her, she could feel the surrounding Star Realm Magic gathering into her body.
"Wuwu, Star Realm Magic... Star Realm Magic... so much..."
The Rabbit Girl whimpered softly, rolled over onto her side, and buried her face in the comfortable, soft fur in front of her.
"Hehehe... fluffy..."
The sudden movement made the little fox shiver all over, and she gently stroked the soft ears and fur of the Rabbit Girl in front of her.
"She looks very uncomfortable."
A familiar voice sounded in her ear, and Su Tianqing turned her head to meet the gaze of the Hellcat in its Shrike form, which had flown to the rooftop.
"Good evening, Cat Cat."
"Mm, good evening."
The Hellcat nodded in response, transformed from its Shrike form back into its Cat Girl form, and padded over to Xin Yuehu's side.
"Her Star Realm Magic is completely depleted, exactly like your situation last time, Cat Cat," the Golden Fox said.
"...Is she a companion you've developed?" the Hellcat asked curiously.
Su Tianqing immediately shook her head.
"No, this is the first time I've seen her today. I picked her up from the plaza."
The Hellcat was silent for a few seconds, then raised her eyebrows.
If Xin Yuehu didn't develop her into a Magic Girl, then where did she get her guardian star?
An Observer? That's the only possibility.
"But that's not right."
The Hellcat found a contradiction in this logic.
"You noticed it too, Cat Cat," Su Tianqing grinned,
"If she were a Magic Girl developed by an Observer, then she wouldn't be on our side."
"So she must have accidentally obtained a guardian star," the Hellcat interjected.
This reminded her of her own past experience:
As a villainous Magic Girl, the Hellcat's own first transformation occurred when she picked up a guardian star, and then, due to magical exhaustion, she began a life of attacking passersby and Magic Girls.
And this Pink-haired Rabbit Girl... her experience was practically carved from the same mold as her own.
"But like this, it will be very difficult for her to replenish enough Star Realm Magic," the Hellcat said.
The Golden Fox paused for a moment, then immediately narrowed her eyes, revealing a subtle smile.
"Hmm? Cat Cat, do you mean... you don't mind if I use other methods...?"
"I mind!"
The Cat Girl immediately replied, answering very quickly.
Then her cheeks flushed.
"Well, it's not really that, but more or less there's still a bit... um..."
"Don't worry, besides you, Cat Cat, Fox Fox won't use that method to replenish Star Realm Magic for anyone else~"
The Golden Fox laughed cheerfully, and the Cat Girl's tail involuntarily stood straight up.
Indeed, she's a pure Cat Cat; just a little teasing makes her so shy.
Maintaining a cheerful mood, Su Tianqing extended her left hand towards the Rabbit Girl in front of her.
Star Realm Magic immediately converged on the Rabbit Girl, almost forming a vortex of Star Realm Magic.
Xia Taotao's consciousness gradually awakened from her daze.
In a trance, she felt as if she had returned to her mother's warm embrace.
Her mouth was filled with the fragrant and sweet scent of Star Realm Magic, like gardenia, but even fresher.
This wonderful feeling was like snuggling with five or six siblings, cooing in their mother's arms.
"Mm-ngh... ngh..."
The Rabbit Girl opened her eyes.
Warm, soft, safe.
She had clearly experienced the embarrassing situation of magical exhaustion, so why would she...
"You're awake."
A soft whisper sounded in her ear.
Xia Taotao looked up blankly, meeting the smiling face so close to her.
The fatigue and confusion in her mind vanished, and at the same time, the fear that should have erupted also disappeared.
Only bewilderment remained.
"How do you feel? Are you still uncomfortable?"
"Ah... ah ah... I... that..."
"If you're uncomfortable, just tell me, and I'll continue to give you Star Realm Magic~"
Xia Taotao suddenly realized her situation.
"M-squeak?!"
The Rabbit Girl awoke from her daze, suddenly realizing what she had just done:
She had been replenishing Star Realm Magic without any sense of boundaries, all while foolishly grinning and acting crazy!
But even after waking up, she still didn't want to give up this warmth...
No! Now is not the time for this!
"S-s-sorry! I, I didn't mean to just now!!!"
The Rabbit Girl immediately leaped far away from the Golden Fox, apologizing in fear, while looking at Xin Yuehu and the Hellcat sitting not far away.
Then she looked down at her bunny girl outfit and the Star Realm Magic that filled her entire body—
"Why am I like this...?"
"Because you haven't received the favor of the stars. You, like us, are a villainous Magic Girl, you know."
Xin Yuehu said with a light laugh, bathed in the bright moonlight, her smile radiant.
"Magic Girl... villain..."
Xia Taotao murmured to herself, feeling as if a dream had come true, but also feeling that something was not quite right.
But looking at the girl's smile in front of her, Xia Taotao couldn't muster the slightest thought of refusal.
Villainous Magic Girl—one more added.
