Magical girl? She got tricked into this!

Her eyes were bloodshot due to extreme anger. She looked at the two girls' departing backs with a ferocious expression, and her clenched teeth made a "clacking" sound.

There was a faint black gas rising from her body, spreading upwards from the soles of her feet. After reaching her head, the black gas penetrated into her ears, mouth, and nasal cavity.

His eyes, which were already bloodshot, were suddenly filled with a bright red light.

"Anten Meiko... I will definitely kill you!" The voice filled with anger was almost squeezed out from between teeth.

……

After returning home and resting for a while, when the time was almost up, Anten Meiko and the others set off for the gathering point for the celebration banquet.

When they arrived, most of the magical girls were already there, except for Commander Yuichi and a small number of staff.

As soon as they saw Meiko Anten walking in from the gate, everyone's eyes lit up and turned their attention to her.

Although her fighting style and the means she used were unknown, someone special had investigated and found that the Dragon-level Void Beast Lust did not escape, but truly disappeared.

In other words, one of the seven strongest dragon-level warriors was indeed successfully defeated by Meiko Anten, and the crusade came to an end.

"Our hero is finally here. Come on, Ruby, take a seat."

In the middle of their positions, there is a particularly conspicuous position, and this position is obviously reserved for An Erleng陾er Yin氵0罢鸸群Teng Yazi.

"Then I'll take a seat first." She pointed to the seat over there and said to Li.

"Yeah." Li responded, smiling and loosening her grip on her hand.

She was undoubtedly the hero of this celebration banquet, so it was only natural that she sat at the head of the table.

Although she also wanted to sit with Anten Meiko, she was not unreasonable. After all, their relationship had been confirmed, and there was still a long time to come, so there was no need to be too restrained about this time.

Just as Meiko Anten left and Li was about to find a seat, she felt someone pat her shoulder.

"Are you free? How about coming out and chatting?"

A familiar voice came into her ears. She turned around and found that Lin was standing behind her, looking at her with a serious expression.

Turning around and nodding, Li smiled and said, "That's right, I have something I want to tell you too."

Volume 3: This is a Different World: Chapter 69: The Past

Looking back at Meiko Anten who was being harassed by everyone, the two looked at each other, nodded slightly at each other, then turned and left the barbecue restaurant.

They didn't go too far, but found a secluded alley nearby and walked into it.

The night was shrouded in silence, with faint noise coming from the barbecue restaurant. The two of them just stood on either side of the alley, looking at each other in silence.

After about a minute, Rin finally walked up to Rei and bowed deeply to her.

This sudden action obviously startled Li, causing her to step aside in confusion, wondering, "What are you doing all of a sudden? I can't handle such a sudden gift."

"I'm sorry, what I said that day was a bit too harsh."

"So that's how it is." Li waved her hand gently at her. "No need to apologize, I want to thank you instead."

"Eh?" Lin was stunned for a moment, clearly confused. His words were so harsh, why would she still say she wanted to thank him? "Why?"

"Because you're right, I'm weak, I'm really weak, and I'm really a hindrance." Li laughed self-deprecatingly, "I used to only want to find lust and avenge my sister, and I never wanted to make myself stronger."

"But after this battle, I realized that my current strength is nothing to those high-level void beasts."

Lin straightened up, looked at her with complicated eyes and said, "I was a little impulsive at the time, but I'm not just talking about you, I'm also talking to myself."

"It seems that you are also a person with a story. I remember that you are from China. I am very curious about why you want to become stronger."

"Then I'll tell you this as an apology. I became stronger for one reason: to fulfill my father's wish one day and place my mother in the clan's mourning hall."

When mentioning her mother, sadness welled up in Lin's eyes. She slightly opened her shirt and pulled out the two necklaces around her neck.

Apart from the sword-shaped decoration she used for transformation, the other necklace hung a small bottle that looked very plain and nothing special.

"These are my mother's ashes." Looking at the bottle in her hand, her eyes became much softer, and even the sadness that had just filled her eyes was alleviated a lot.

"Mom, like me, we are both Taoist priests from Zhongyi Xuantang. According to the terminology here, we are called magical girls. During another mission, a fault appeared in the space they were in, so they couldn't leave the void world."

"And just at that moment, they were ambushed by the target of their mission. They should have done their utmost to kill the target, but they didn't expect that the target, a Ghost-level Void Beast, had evolved into a Dragon-level. As a result, they pushed their mother out to buy time in order to escape, and they themselves escaped back to the real world."

"Why is this..."

Lin Qing sighed and continued, "In order to clear themselves of the charge of fleeing without a fight, they lied and said their mother ran away out of fear, causing them to lose sight of their target."

"This group of people is so hateful, but how did you know this?"

"Because I didn't believe their lies, I went in without telling my father and searched for my mother. I ended up finding the bloody words she left at their mission location."

Having said that, the corners of her mouth curved up into a smile, but this smile was like a hundred-year-old black ice, making people feel bitingly cold.

"My mother transformed the Origin Ether and risked her life to severely injure the dragon-level creature and scare it away, only then was she able to leave these words... If it weren't for them... if it weren't for the Void Beast, how could my mother have perished in the Void World, leaving no trace of her body?"

Li looked at the bottle in Lin's hand with some surprise. She wanted to ask something but felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong. The words on the tip of her tongue could not be uttered.

"You're wondering why Mom's ashes are in my hands, right?" Seeing Li nod awkwardly, she explained, "Because the clan left them there in case something unfortunate happens to them and they can't bring anything back."

"Then why did you come all the way to live in Japan?"

"My father and I were dissatisfied with the clan's decision, so we left. After coming to Japan, my father found me a stepmother, and we settled here. I simply took my stepmother's surname and took a Japanese name."

Even the person she trusted the most, Anten Meiko, didn't know about this. She didn't know why she suddenly wanted to tell this witch, whom she once hated the most, but after confessing to others the words that had been in her heart for a long time, she felt much better.

"It's been quite a rollercoaster." Li walked over to her and gently patted her shoulder. "Come on, you and your father's wish will definitely come true. If you need any help, just let me know. As friends, Meiko and I will stand by you."

"Thank you." Lin said thank you softly, then shook his head, as if trying to drive away the sadness in his mind. "By the way, didn't you say you had something to tell me?"

"Forget it. I feel like the current atmosphere isn't right. Let's talk about it later when we find an opportunity."

"Okay." They were silent for a while, then looked across the gap in the alley to the barbecue restaurant in front, and just saw the late commander walking in.

"It looks like the celebration party is about to begin. Let's go back."

As the two women walked to the door of the barbecue restaurant, they met An Teng Meizi who was about to go out.

"Sister Yazi, what's wrong? Do you need to leave for something?"

"No, I saw that everyone was here and you hadn't come back yet, so I was just about to go out and look for you." She glanced at the two of them with a smile, feeling somewhat relieved. "Seeing that you two seem to be on good terms, I'm relieved."

"What do you think we're going to do?"

"Um... let's spar before dinner?"

"Meizi, you really think we are battle maniacs." Rin and Rei smiled at each other and stepped forward at the same time, grabbing both arms of Anten Meizi and pulling her back to her seat like two bodyguards.

Seeing that the last three people had taken their seats, Yuichi raised his glass and stood up, smiling at the people from the Tokyo branch who were sitting at their respective seats. "Originally, Lady Kamijou was planning to come in person this time, but she has to deal with some aftermath matters, so unfortunately, she is currently unable to make time."

"But it doesn't matter. This celebration party also belongs to everyone in our Tokyo branch. Everyone can eat and drink as much as they want, and all expenses will be reimbursed by the company!"

"Great!"

Volume 3: It's a Different World: Finale (4k)

At nightfall, Chiyuri Ando and Takahiro Ando returned to their home after a month and a half absence. They looked up at their son's room, and when they didn't see any light, their expressions changed.

"Could this brat have turned off the lights to play games again?" Ando Takahiro frowned, then turned his head to look at Ando Chiyuri beside him, and said helplessly.

"Maybe he just went to bed early." Chiyuri Ando comforted her, then took out the key and opened the entrance door.

The two of them glanced inside at the same time with suspicion.

All the shoes in the entrance hall were neatly placed in the shoe cabinet, with some dust on them. It seemed that no one had used or cleaned them for some time.

According to their understanding of their son, this kid is not someone who likes cleaning. How come the things at home are arranged so neatly?

"It should be Fuzi who helped to organize it. I think she likes our Haoyi very much. Why aren't they together yet?" Qian Baihe said with a smile, holding her cheeks.

Xiaohong curled his lips and said, "This kid just stays at home playing games all day long. Even if he gets married, he will only cause trouble to other girls."

Chiyuri knew her husband very well in her heart. Although he said that, he saw that Sakura Fujiko was also very satisfied. It just so happened that she also seemed to have some special feelings for her son.

If he had this idea, it would have happened long ago... But who would have thought that this silly boy, who didn't know whether he was really stupid or pretending to be stupid, would be so stupid that he couldn't even see such an obvious thing.

They took off their shoes at the entrance and walked in. After putting all their luggage back into their shared room, they prepared to go to the kitchen to find something to eat.

When they passed by their son's bedroom, they stopped at the same time, looked at each other, and then Xiaohong said helplessly: "You should do it."

Qian Baihe didn't delay, nodded, and knocked on the door a few times: "Haoyi, we are back, why don't you come out to see your lovely mother?"

There was no response from their son in the room, nor were there any other sounds including typing on the keyboard or pressing the controller, which made the old couple a little confused.

Could it be that this brat is really asleep?

"If you don't reply, your father and I will come in." After saying that, Chiyuri turned the doorknob and pushed the door open.

After turning on the light switch next to it, they discovered that their son's room was empty.

The quilt and pillows on the bed were neatly stacked like big bricks, and a faint fragrance like that of a lively girl wafted from the neat sheets.

Toys, figurines, books, these things that should have been thrown everywhere are now placed on the shelves. Although everything inside seems to have not been touched, one can vaguely feel that the atmosphere of life has been diluted a lot.

What is certain is that the owner of this room must have been away for some time.

"Where did this brat go?" Takahiro looked around the room in confusion, but didn't notice anything strange. However, this was exactly the strangest thing.

"Let's go to the living room. If he really had something to do, he wouldn't have forgotten to leave a note."

"That's right."

After the couple closed the door for their son again, they turned and walked into the living room. After turning on the lights, they found a conspicuous note in the kitchen that was stuck to the upper cabinet door of the refrigerator by a magnet.

The old couple looked at each other and could see the changes in each other's facial expressions.

Running away from home for something? Staying at a friend's house? Oh my god, isn't that just going to find a woman?

"He...he didn't do something he shouldn't have done with Fuzi, and then read the letter I sent him, so he ran away from home out of guilt, right?"

"If this brat really dares to do this, I will definitely break his legs."

Qian Baihe glanced at him helplessly and said, "Look, he's not young anymore. Isn't it normal for him to have a girlfriend? Fuzi is quiet and polite, good at studying and caring. Although pairing her with our Haoyi is like sticking her in cow dung, I still like her."

"You say that so easily." Takahiro rolled his eyes at her and turned away without looking at her.

"I'd better call Yisling Yaoqisi Vleeksi Long Pa$ to confirm where he is now."

"As you wish."

Chiyuri took out her cell phone, found the name Ando Koichi in the address book and dialed it.

However, the call did not go through, and from the prompt tone, it can be seen that Ando Koichi's phone has been turned off.

"Haoyi's phone is off. I'll go ask Fuzi. She should know something."

After saying that, she found Sakura Fuko's number and dialed it, and the call was connected soon.

"Aunt Chiyuri, good evening. What's the matter with you calling me so late?"

"Fuzi, good evening. I'd like to ask if Haoyi is with you now?"

"Kouichi? He's not here. What's wrong? Isn't he at home?"

She could hear that there was surprise in Fuzi's tone. She was not lying now, and Fuzi herself was not a liar.

Since she said she wasn't there, then she definitely wasn't there.

"Auntie, don't worry. Haoyi must have something urgent to deal with, so he went out. He's already grown up, so he should know his limits."

On the other end of the phone, Fuzi slowly put the phone into her pocket, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, forming a beautiful arc.

She signed a contract with the Great Will for Ando Koichi...or rather, Ando Meiko, who had become a girl.

So at that time, the Great Will told her some things about Ando Meiko, and she also learned that Meiko was pulled into the Magical Girl Tokyo branch by Rin.

She knew that the reason why Ando Meiko ran away from home must be because she had difficulty explaining to her parents that she had become a girl, so she planned to go out and hide for a while, and after she had achieved enough merit to make a wish to the Great Will, she would turn back into Ando Koichi and go home.

But no matter what, since she has come to this complicated world, one day she will be able to stand beside Ando Meiko and stand shoulder to shoulder with her.

She wanted to help her, that's why she became a magical girl.

"Fuzi, are you ready?"

The voice behind her brought Fuzi back to her senses. She turned around and nodded to the girl: "Well, we're ready and can leave at any time."

"This is your first battle. Remember, once you enter the Void World, be careful. If you encounter danger, don't panic. Look for an opportunity to open the door and leave."

"Yeah, I remember that."

"In that case, let's go." As the girl opened the door to the virtual world, Fuzi also entered the transformation state under the wrapping of a white light ball.
