Magical girl? She got tricked into this!

She thought of her girlfriends, so when she encountered this situation, she subconsciously asked this question to the person involved.

Kamijou Asahina gave Ando Meiko a meaningful look, then shook her head. "Why would you be jealous? I'm overjoyed. We're all comrades who've shared life and death together, and it's not like we don't have feelings for each other. Do you think Chris doesn't have many friends out there? It's just that now there are only the two of us."

After saying this, Ando Meiko could clearly sense a sense of sadness from her. She then continued, "Magical girls don't belong to the human category... I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, Chris and I are actually almost three hundred years old."

Ando Meiko's pupils shrank slightly. It was the first time she heard the real age from the mouth of an older generation of magical girl with such certainty. She didn't know how long she could live, but her appearance would always remain at 18 years old. This was what was called a magical girl.

"You will experience the birth, aging, sickness, and death of many friends and family members around you, and you will also experience the loneliness of wandering through the long years. It is not easy to have someone who always stays by your side. Especially as you grow older and experience more, you will gradually become less sensitive to the emotions of people and things. So, if you meet someone you like, don't let go, but treat everyone who chooses to stay with you equally."

She knew that Kamijou Asahina was not only answering her questions but also giving her advice, so Ando Meiko nodded deeply and sighed softly: "Thank you, I will cherish everything that stays with me."

"With your words, I can rest assured and leave my daughter to you."

"Well, leave it to me."

Ando Meiko stood up without looking back and walked further and further away in the academy. After the three people had dealt with their feelings and returned to the portal, they returned to Japan together.

Nangong Yao, who had been reunited for a long time, did not follow, but seeing that Chris and Kamijou Asahina both looked refreshed, Ando Meiko guessed what had happened to them in the conference room.

"Chris, Asahina, I'm leaving first." As soon as she returned to the main base, Meiko Anten said goodbye to the two elders and left in a hurry.

The other magical girls were already used to her coming out of Asahina's office. Although many people greeted her along the way, Meiko Anten really didn't have the heart or time to stop.

After coming out of the Akihabara main base, Meiko Ando hid in an unmanned facility specially provided for magical girls to transform. She returned to her home as quickly as possible in the void world, and came out in the backyard of her home to cancel the transformation.

Her father and mother were still at work and had not returned yet, so she simply took a quick look at the house and walked out, going straight to the Sawamura family next door. After straightening her clothes, she reached out and rang the doorbell.

Volume 8: The Invasion of Evil: Chapter 24: Aren't You Surprised?

"Excuse me, who are you?" Not long after, the door of the Sawamura family was opened. However, the person who opened the door was not Sawamura Rin, but her father Sawamura Taihei.

"Uncle Sawamura?" Seeing this face that she hadn't seen for a long time, Ando Meiko's mouth twitched and she said it subconsciously.

She knew Taihei Sawamura. Before she became a girl, she and Rin would often visit each other's homes, so no matter how busy Taihei Sawamura was, they would always meet a few times.

Moreover, he did not object to his daughter's contact, and even agreed to let him come often. He even sent Sawamura Rin to his home from time to time so that his parents could help take care of her.

At first, Ando Meiko thought that this father was too irresponsible and why he never spent time with his daughter. Now it seems that it may be related to the past events between the father and daughter.

Taihei Sawamura didn't know how to comfort his daughter, and he happened to see that he and his daughter had a pretty good relationship. She seemed to have forgotten some of the past things when they were together, and she became more cheerful, so he was happy about it.

"It's me, little friend. You're not here to see me, are you?"

Ando Meiko was very perceptive. At first glance, she saw a hint of hidden caution and a hint of hostility in Sawamura Taihei's eyes.

"Oh, uncle, my name is Ando Meiko, I'm here to look for Rin, I'm her friend."

"You should be the friend of Xiaolin, the girl from the same house? Excuse me, please come in first. She has been hiding in her room for several days. I don't know why she didn't tell me."

"It's okay, uncle. I'm here just for this matter. Let me go talk to her first."

"Oh, okay, okay, she's in the second room upstairs, you can go up by yourself." Taihei Sawamura nodded repeatedly, hurriedly opened the door for her, and then went back to the living room to take care of his own things.

Meiko Ando looked at Taihei Sawamura's back until he closed the door, then she sighed softly, shook her head and patted her face. After making up her mind mentally, she walked up the stairs lightly.

Even if Sawamura Taihei hadn't reminded her just now, Ando Meiko would have been able to stand in front of Sawamura Rin's door with ease according to her memory.

Although both of them are Chinese, the decoration of the whole house is in a very pure Japanese style. Ando Meiko didn't know it before, but now she is sure that it must be Taihei Sawamura who doesn't want his daughter to have too many things that can remind her of her parents.

She wandered around for a while, briefly looking through her memories from two years ago, then reached out and gently knocked on the door. There was no sound from inside, so she kept knocking until a muffled sound came out and she stopped.

"Dad, didn't I tell you to leave me alone and let me be alone?"

The familiar voice made Meiko Anten feel dazed. After all, it had been two years since she last saw him in a state of amnesia, and she felt a little strange about the things that were once familiar in her memory.

"Rin, I want to talk to you."

After hearing that the person outside was not his father but Anten Meiko, there was a sudden collision sound in the room, followed by the sound of something heavy falling to the ground.

Even if Meiko Anten hadn't used detection magic at this time, she knew that Sawamura Rin must have bumped into something because she got up too suddenly out of surprise, and then fell to the ground when she turned over.

After a while, the door was opened a crack, and a small head popped out from the side, looking at him through the crack.

The room was very dark because the curtains were drawn, but light shone through the gap onto Sawamura Rin's face, so it was not difficult to see that her expression was a little sad at the moment.

"You...what are you here for?"

After being together for such a long time, it was the first time that Yako Anten saw her usually lively childhood sweetheart show such an expression. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

Seeing that Anten Meiko remained silent, Sawamura Rin's eyes dimmed a little: "If there is nothing else, please go back..."

When she was about to close the door, Anten Meiko reached out and held the door open. No matter how hard she tried, the door could not move at all.

"Please, Rin, just for a moment."

Meiko Anten's soft tone touched the girl's heart, and she finally gave up and let go of the door.

After entering the room, Meiko Anten locked the door. The two sat on the same bed. Rin Sawamura next to her covered her whole body in the quilt, as if she didn't want him to see her expression.

The atmosphere was very quiet. Meiko Anten, who entered the room, just sat there quietly, while Rin Sawamura, covered in the quilt, was playing with his fingers.

This is all my problem. I can't remain silent any longer. I must take the initiative to confess to her.

"Rin, actually, Ando Meiko is... Ando Koichi."

Without any warning or preparation, Meiko Andeng directly stated her true identity, but the girl did not seem to be overly surprised. She just said "hmm" softly, but it was obvious that the girl's breathing became a little heavier.

This time, it was An Teng Meizi who felt embarrassed: "Aren't you surprised?"

"When you came to my house last time and pointed at those paintings and told me their origins, I guessed it. It's just that there was no direct evidence... After all, who would have thought that such a gloomy shut-in with such a low profile would turn into such a lovely girl."

"Yes, yes, I'm sorry that your childhood sweetheart is a gloomy, shut-in with no sense of existence."

The conversation has started, and the atmosphere around Sawamura Rin is not as intense as before, so Anten Meiko has relaxed a little and made some complaints and jokes.

But not long after, Sawamura Rin began to sob. Although the sound seemed a little muffled because of the quilt covering her, how could Meiko Andeng not hear it?

She swallowed and gently held Lin in her arms through the quilt: "A few days ago, Fuzi and I went to the secret realm of familiars. If possible, would you like to listen to my experience?"

A soft "hmm" came from under the quilt. Meiko Anten smiled slightly, patted Rin's back under the quilt, and told her about her experiences in the past two years.

From being hunted down as a wanted criminal by a kingdom, he met trustworthy partners on the road, challenged dungeons, met all kinds of creatures from other worlds, experienced the customs and cultures of different countries, endured life and death disasters, grew from weak to strong, moved forward and finally defeated the devil, and cut a way home with a sword.

Such ups and downs, like the content of a light novel about traveling to another world, made Sawamura Rin forget her sorrow. She wanted to doubt many times, but Anten Meiko's description was so immersive that she could not find any fault at all and just listened quietly.

Volume 8: The Evil That Strikes: Chapter 25: Let It Be

One of them was talking incessantly while the other was listening intently. They had both forgotten how long the two-year experience would take to talk about. They only remembered that when they came to their senses, it was already dark outside.

The room was dark without a single ray of light, but the two of them were not ordinary people, so they could see each other's expressions even without any light.

Rin Sawamura confirmed her guess and learned the exact news that Ando Meiko was Ando Koichi, but instead of being excited, she felt a warm feeling of having let go of a burden.

Ever since her childhood sweetheart disappeared, she has been worried about Ando Koichi's safety, but who would have thought that this boy would turn into a girl, silently accompanying her and protecting her.

For Rin Sawamura, nothing could be more touching than this, so even though she had been worried for so long, she did not blame Ando Koichi for leaving without saying goodbye.

However, after feeling relieved, she finally couldn't help but shed tears. She sobbed at first, and then finally rushed out of the quilt and threw herself into Ando Meiko's arms and burst into tears.

This was just an emotional release, with happiness, excitement, gratitude, and various other emotions. Ando Meiko just hugged her gently and let her tears fall on her chest, wetting her dress.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Sawamura Rin cried and apologized vaguely, "You spent two difficult years over there, and I'm still here quarreling with you."

The crying lasted for half an hour before Sawamura Rin finally stopped. Meiko Anten got up helplessly and felt that her clothes were so wet that she could probably wring water out of them.

When Sawamura Rin saw the large area of ​​discolored skin on her chest, her pretty face turned red, but she didn't look away: "Sorry, I got your clothes wet."

"It's okay, just wash it and let it dry later."

When she calmed down, she looked at An Teng Meizi's clothes with a calm yet curious look: "Is this what you brought back from that other world?"

"Well, how about it? Want to go with me?"

Sawamura Rin said in surprise without saying a word: "Huh? What do you mean? I want to go, of course I want to go...but can you still go back?"

When Meiko Anten was immersed in the world of the second dimension, Rin Sawamura, who tried to understand her, also read some novels, but soon she also immersed herself in the world of light novels.

Although the world of novels is fictional, it is full of fantasies and things that you want to do but cannot do. Compared to the real world, which is a place full of sadness, the world of novels is indeed more desirable.

So Rin Sawamura also yearns for another world. She wants to hide in the world of books, temporarily avoid the real world, and avoid all the troubles visible to the naked eye.

"That should be possible. I plan to go back and take a look anyway. After all, I promised my friends over there that I would bring them here when I have time."

Hearing this, Sawamura Rin's spirits, which had been high just now, suddenly collapsed. He was no longer as excited as before, but just agreed casually, "Really? The friend I met over there..."

Although she concealed it well, Meiko Anten could tell at a glance that Sawamura Rin's expression and behavior must be that she was jealous. She scratched her head in embarrassment, thinking in her heart that she must confess this matter to the girl in front of her.

Chris, Kamijou Asahina, and even Rei all told her to cherish the present, cherish the people in front of her, and cherish everything around her. What reason did she have to ignore the feelings of those who loved her and those she loved?

"Rin, there's one thing I need to explain to you. Nakajima Rei is my girlfriend."

Sawamura Rin's body trembled slightly, and his voice became a little trembling: "Girlfriend or something... Are you serious? Is she really your girlfriend?"

When Anten Meiko was still a teenager, she had always liked Nakajima Rei. This was not only no secret, but it was even known to the whole school.

At first, Sawamura Rin thought that there was no way the other party would like him, and in the end it only added to his sadness... The facts proved that it was indeed so, and the fact that his three confessions were rejected dealt a heavy blow to him.

However, the girl did not have time to comfort the frustrated boy after his confession was rejected, because he had disappeared. The next day, it was no longer him who returned to school, but the girl with the same surname.

"Not only Nakajima Rei, but also Katerina, Hyakki Ayaya, Sakura Fuko, Kamijou Renka, Ruby, and those from the other world. I can't guarantee that there will still be some in the future, but I have equal feelings for everyone."

This statement was too much like Neptune's, even Meiko Anten herself wanted to slap herself, but there was no way. Since she chose to confess, she had to tell the truth.

Sawamura Rin's eyes were a little dull. She had never expected that, besides herself, there would be so many people following her, and it seemed that they all knew each other. After learning that there were many people around her, they chose to be tolerant.

She likes Koichi Ando, ​​and even though the boy has become a girl, this feeling has never changed. But can she accept the idea of ​​sharing one's feelings with others like other people?

"I'm sorry... I still can't accept this kind of thing..." After a long ideological struggle, she finally let out a sigh.

She was born in a sect and received an extremely strict education soon after her birth. Even her marriage and childbearing were arranged early on.

As a result, her subconscious mind was still maintained in the ancient traditional education. Although she did not reject or resist Anten Meiko and the girls around her, she still could not accept it for a while.

"It's okay, just let it go." After saying that, she glanced around the room and changed the subject. "But your room is really nostalgic. I can't even remember how long it has been since I last came here."

"It's been a few years since you were teased in junior high school for being 'a grown man playing house with girls, aren't you ashamed?' You haven't come into my room since."

"You still remember it clearly. I, such an idiot, have forgotten it long ago."

She lowered her head and continued to observe before she saw a suitcase that was not too big at the communication area. The suitcase looked a little bigger than normal, and it must be filled with various things.

Sawamura Rin noticed Anten Meiko's gaze and said nonchalantly, "The auditions are going to start in a few days, so I packed up in advance and prepared to return home."

Volume 8: The Invasion of Evil: Chapter 26: The Transfer Station

Meiko Ando didn't prepare anything. The most important thing was to go to the bank to exchange some money before leaving, otherwise the yen would be useless there.

"How about going over there and having a meal?" Ando Meiko asked softly, and in return she received a nod from Sawamura Rin and a long-awaited look.

"But tell your dad we're going out to eat."

"No, he just left and won't be back until tomorrow at noon."

"Uncle, this class is really hard."

Ando Meiko sighed, closed her eyes and sensed carefully. She wanted to mobilize the power of the Sword of the World but couldn't. After becoming the axis of the world, the Sword of the World was completely fixed. If she wanted to use it, she could only stand in that fragmented world.

"What's wrong, Meiko?"

"Nothing, it seems we need to go to the transfer station first."

After saying that, Ando Meiko used her mind to attract the star fragments attached to the Sky Flame Dragon Ball, confidently stretched out her hand and snapped her fingers, and a space door suddenly opened.

Rin Sawamura looked at the space door curiously. It was called a door because it was indeed a rectangular door, and one could directly see the scenery on the opposite side.

Growing up, she had only seen space passages that crossed the void world and the real world. She had never seen something so direct and like a portal.

"Can I, can I go into the hotel?"

Seeing Ando Meiko nod, Sawamura Rin did not hide his excitement at all. Without even trying, he jumped into the door with one leap.

She felt herself passing through a thin, slightly cool film of water, and then she felt her feet on solid ground, and she came to a plain covered with grass.

The entire plain is very flat, with only a few bulges on the ground, but the bulges are not very large and do not even affect the field of vision.

The fragmented world is not round like the earth, but a completely flat surface with a round sky and a square earth. Therefore, you can see three areas: forest, swamp, and desert.

The scenery he had never seen before and the fresh air he had never breathed before made Sawamura Rin open his eyes wide, as if he wanted to remember everything he saw in his mind.

"Is this the place? Meizi, is this the other world you mentioned?"

"No." Ando Meiko shook her head. "This is the world where Fuzi fell, but for some reason it now belongs to me. I'm going to take you to another place, and this is just a transit point."
