Chapter 63 The Curtain Is About to Rise
Chapter 63 The Curtain Is About to Rise
Time flies when you focus on something.
In the blink of an eye, a week has passed quickly, and it's weekend morning again.
Su Tianqing sat in a noodle shop at the entrance of the residential area, slurping up a bowl of steaming noodles while scrolling through her WeChat Moments with great interest.
During this week, as the villain, I have been getting along well with the two real magical girls, and I have no intention or opportunity to meet them for the time being.
One reason, of course, is the fear of being used as a stepping stone by the two righteous factions who are going all out.
But what worried Su Tianqing the most was some information she had inadvertently come across while perusing the secret manual this week:
Aside from herself, the other villainous magical girls need to replenish their magic power in fixed quantities every month.
If they do not receive a replenishment of magic for a long time, they will fall into a state of magic depletion, and after transforming, they will be unable to use any astral magic, and even their movements will be restricted.
Why don't you supplement it yourself?
Even though she's the villain, why can she still draw on a large supply of magic from the astral plane like a proper magical girl?
Su Tianqing thought about it for a whole week but still couldn't figure it out.
"Slurp! Pfft!"
After slurping up the last mouthful of noodles, the golden-haired fox blew away the surface oil and took a big sip of the noodle soup.
Then he leaned back in his chair with a smile, wiping his mouth as he continued scrolling through his WeChat Moments.
I don't have many close friends. I only talk to Xiaoyu Hualing and Nan Xiaofeng the most, as well as some friends I met in college.
What? You mean your friends from middle school?
Unfortunately, the original Su Tianqing had no friends at all.
Influenced by the original owner of the body, Su Tianqing felt like she was about to cry.
The golden fox quickly grabbed a tissue and blew hard on the tears and snot that had come out of the spicy noodle soup.
The content on WeChat Moments isn't very informative.
Most university students were complaining about their professors or finding high-quality protein and mysterious steel wire brushes in their cafeteria food.
Nan Jiayu's WeChat Moments are full of cats, whether they are stray cats or employees of a nearby cat cafe.
"Does Little Fish really like cats? I like them too!"
Su Tianqing left a comment below.
Next is Nan Xiaofeng's latest WeChat Moments post, which was posted ten minutes ago.
A few photos of a lush, tree-lined path in Chengdu's Green Heart Park.
Autumn maple leaves have covered the lawn of Green Heart Park. Against the backdrop of those fallen leaves, three girls in the photo are smiling happily at the camera.
Hua Ling, Nan Xiaofeng, and... Lin Muyao.
Seeing the three smiling faces, Su Tianqing couldn't help but show a motherly smile of relief.
Over the course of the week, the three of them quickly became close.
After all, Lin Muyao wasn't a particularly gloomy person, and she had received professional treatment for her psychological problems. All she lacked was a friend who was willing to communicate with her.
Moreover, Nan Xiaofeng and she share similar interests; they both love collecting magical girl merchandise, so becoming friends is only a matter of time.
"very good."
Su Tianqing muttered to herself, a sly smile playing on her lips.
Fox chuckled mischievously.
Everything went smoothly as planned.
Nan Xiaofeng and Hua Ling successfully met Lin Muyao and became close friends with her.
The Stargazer Elf must have noticed Lin Muyao's potential as a magical girl.
Next... as long as I give them a little more motivation, it will be very easy for Mu Yao to obtain the Guardian Star.
After getting up to pay the bill, the golden-haired fox left the noodle shop and returned home.
Taking out the secret manual from the magical space, the golden fox spread it out on her lap and began to seriously examine today's task.
【Daily Task 1: Spot the Difference】
[After a week, the magical girls' initial enthusiasm has cooled down considerably. Let's go teach them a lesson.]
[Reward: 200 Divine Stones]
The Secret Codex finally assigned itself a task of finding fault.
It seems it's time for this fox to make its move!
The villainous fox stretched and lay on its side on the sofa, covering its belly with its fluffy tail to keep warm.
In addition to the daily quests, the other quests that refresh the Mystic Codex are also listed one by one.
[Mission: Magical Girl Expansion Project]
[Mission: The Secret of Our Companion]
[Quest: Replenish Mana]
These three tasks are still incomplete, while the task of finding ten ways to spot the flaws has been completed, and 2000 Divine Stones have been obtained.
With the daily rewards I've received from summoning monsters these past few days, my total number of Divine Stones has now reached 5200!
This huge sum of money was enough to buy the upgrade of the Heart Moon Wand, but Su Tianqing had been holding back from buying it, all for today.
"The Hellcat will attack Lin Muyao this weekend night... which is tonight..."
Su Tianqing read out the mission instructions from the secret manual and narrowed her eyes.
If all goes well, I should be able to finish the last two tasks tonight, which will unlock the third page of the shop.
Su Tianqing's idea was to save up the Divine Stones and see if she could buy some good items after the shop was unlocked.
But considering that the cat will be fighting two magical girls tonight with limited magic power...
No, if my plan goes smoothly, Lin Muyao should be able to transform into the third righteous magical girl tonight, and then Maomao will have to face a total of three.
And there's also a newcomer who's undergoing their first transformation.
"Hmph, it seems I, Fox, have to lend a hand to Cat."
"Then let the newcomers experience my methods firsthand!"
After making a villainous statement in a low voice, Su Tianqing flipped to the shopping page and purchased the Heart Moon Magic Wand, which cost 4000 Divine Stones.
[Payment for the Secret Codex: 4000 Divine Codex Stones]
It breaks my heart!
But after summoning the Heartmoon Wand and seeing its completely new form, Su Tianqing suddenly felt that the Divine Stone was well worth the money.
When Su Tianqing first got her hands on this magic wand, she thought it was just a plastic-looking children's toy.
You can even see the parting line!
After two enhancements, the Heartmoon Wand is no longer the plastic toy it once was—
With its metallic sheen, ribbon embellishments, and golden cross that seems to have a flowing galaxy, it exudes a powerful magic that can be felt simply by looking at it.
"This is what a villainous magical girl's weapon should be like!" The little fox's eyes lit up with anticipation.
But no matter how it looks, it doesn't affect Su Tianqing's love for this magic wand.
This is my signature weapon! I love it no matter what it looks like!
What I care about more is its newly unlocked incredible ability.
Close your eyes and carefully feel the fluctuations of magic. Magical knowledge from the astral plane gradually appears before the golden fox through the wand:
[The world of mental images: unformed]
[A different dimension whose form changes according to your will, entirely constructed by you]
Such a simple and straightforward explanation!
Opening her eyes again, Su Tianqing stared at the Heart Moon Magic Wand in her hand and pondered for a long time.
The world of mental images, showing——
"Wait! No!"
You can't experiment with such dangerous magic at home!
In that case, let's wait until tonight to use it.
"Heh heh... I'll save this surprise for the irises and hyacinths~"
"Next comes the usual time—time to get involved!"
