Living with a magical girl, but a weirdo cadre

　[Concretization System - Confirmed Complete]

　Salamander Silk

　-

　As an aside, this was something Cong Yu learned on the spot... The name contains the character for snake, but it actually has nothing to do with Cong Yu herself.

　In fact, none of the spells he created actually contain snakes, at least not in the spell names.

　"Brother Cong Yu, have you used it yet?"

　The magical girl trainee sitting next to Cong Yu said this, and then all the magical girl trainees gathered around.

　"Brother Cong Yu, you're amazing!"

　"So fast."

　"Wow--"

　"It's turned into a cat's cradle shape, let me play with it—"

　As the magical girl trainee spoke, she reached out to touch the condensed Salamander threads, but she couldn't feel anything.

　Or rather, he missed his target and landed on Cong Yu's hand instead.

　Cong Yu quickly dispelled the spell, and amidst the floating and dissipating black magic, he felt somewhat speechless: "Be careful not to get your hand cut off."

　Although Cong Yu only used a small amount of magic, if the other party actually touched her, her fingers would fall off like a red-hot knife melting butter.

　"Go practice on your own, don't come over here."

　Under Cong Yu's helpless shooing, they scattered with smiles and returned to their positions to continue trying to cast spells.

　For some reason, these lowly magical girl trainees seem to have a huge crush on Congyu-chan.

　Yaochuan Guang just felt an itch in his throat and wished he could bark three times like a dog to drive these shameless magical girl trainees away from Congyu-chan.

　But what is she?

　He didn't say anything, but stared fiercely at Cong Yu in front of him, his hands moving so fast that they stretched out dazzling threads like ramen noodles.

　It's somewhat similar to Hisami Shibasaki's Golden Salamander Silk, but also has some differences...

　Yaochuan's light magic seems a bit too bright.

　It was golden, a whitish gold, shining like the sun.

　"Hmph! Congyu-chan, I succeeded in casting the spell!"

　Yao Chuan Guang chuckled. After all, she was a formal magical girl, and her ability to control magic and learn new spells was top-notch.

　Of course, Lan Tianzhu can't be included, since she already knew how to do it.

　Do you even realize the value of a classic magical girl series? (hands on hips)

　Cong Yu turned his head, trying to figure out why he was being called to look... Then, he got the answer from Yao Chuanguang's expression.

　Seeking praise?

　Cong Yu was somewhat moved, but he wasn't one to be stingy with praise. He patted Yao Chuanguang's head and said, "Yes, you're very talented."

　"Mmm—mmm—"

　Yaochuan Guang revealed a happy expression.

　"..." Lan Tianzhu felt that Yao Chuanguang was definitely beyond saving. She thought that this was no longer just "falling in love".

　This means they've already "recognized" a master!

　"Sister Yaochuan is so amazing, can you teach me?"

　Xiao Cui blinked as she spoke, but her gaze was fixed on Cong Yu touching Yao Chuan Guang's hand: "Xiao Cui wants to learn too."

　Yao Chuanguang immediately began teaching Xiao Cui enthusiastically, even though her teaching might be difficult for a normal person to understand.

　Lan Tianzhu watched as Xiao Cui, whose eyes were practically green with envy, secretly tried something, and sighed softly, "Sigh..."

　That doesn't seem right either, because Xiao Cui's eyes are naturally green.

　"Aaaaaah!!! Ha!!"

　Xiao Cui exerted all her strength, and the emerald green magic in her hands continued to be stretched into dark green, finally pulling out a series of Salamander threads.

　But they're probably not quite the same.

　Because the silk threads that Xiao Cui condensed were not stable, but instead flickered with green electric light like lightning.

　The riotous magic would occasionally crackle and explode.

　It looks like some kind of restless plasma being restrained by Xiao Cui. To sum it up, it's like an electric whip that looks like it would hurt a lot when it hits someone—Avada Kedavra is eating a melon!

　Lan Tianzhu pondered that it shouldn't just contain magic power, but at least some emotion (jealousy or something?)... It's a high-level technique that she needs to prepare before she can use!

　Self-taught, that's terrifying.

　"Brother Congyu, look!"

　"Oh, Xiao Cui is great too, pat pat."

　"Hee hee hee--"

　"..." Lan Tianzhu felt that she was the only one in the family who hadn't been bewitched by Cong Yu. Cong Yu was terrifying! A demon! A scourge to the nation!

　Fortunately, I, Lan Tianzhu, will become the last bulwark of will!

　I will never fall for Cong Yu!

　Hypnotizing himself in this way, Lan Tianzhu expressionlessly dispersed the solidified "Salama Silk".

　Of course, what she didn't know was...

　Even if she held it up, Cong Yu wouldn't praise her.

　(Blue Sky Nagisa: How could this be... cough cough, I mean, it suits me perfectly.)

　Chapter 154 Lan Tianzhu's IQ is Terrifying

　For magical girls, they can become stronger by constantly exhausting their magic power and then slowly recovering it.

　This process is very similar to building muscle.

　However, despite this, magical girls are not willing to train themselves in this way in their daily lives.

　It will be very tiring after all.

　Just as ordinary people know, as long as you take time to exercise, you can make yourself healthier and stronger.

　But in reality, if you waste the rest of your time exercising after you've finished your work, then you feel inexplicably like you're missing out.

　It doesn't feel as good as playing video games.

　After a long day of hard work/study, can't you enjoy yourself a little?

　Magical Girl Battle Royale, Activation!

　Therefore, this training camp was the first time that most of the magical girl trainees had exhausted their magical power under guidance.

　The magical girl trainees, utterly exhausted, lay limply on the mats that had been prepared beforehand, huddled together like a litter of kittens.

　A little green cat was mixed in with them.

　As for Hikaru Yokawa and Nagisa Azuma, their magic power is practically inexhaustible... at least they won't exhaust it all under such low-intensity spellcasting.

　Even if they try their best to fill the "Silk of the Salamander" spell with magic, making the threads richer and sharper... it won't drain them dry.

　If their goal is to "use up all their magic," then they'll need to modify their spells, adding some fancy tricks or the like.

　For example, the two of them could work together to pull out a thread strong enough to restrain a giant beast, making the thread as tough as a hemp rope.

　Unfortunately, they are not yet at the level to modify surgical techniques on-site.

　Needless to say, Cong Yu could probably explode on the spot if he added 1% of his magic power to the spell.

　It transforms into an explosive attribute spell, 【Salamander Modified - Silk-type Bomb】.

　Therefore, in the end, only Cong Yu, Yao Chuan Guang, and Lan Tian Zhu remained calm and sat still.

　……

　"Then, the morning's surgical training is over."

　That concludes this. Next, I will discuss some recent facts.

　As Shibasaki Hisari said this, she looked at the two magical girls and a group of magical girl trainees present: "How many of you here aspire to join a team dedicated to fighting monsters?"

　Hikaru Yokawa and Nagisa Azuma naturally didn't need to answer Hisako Shibasaki's question, while the magical girl trainees looked at each other in bewilderment.

　To be honest, they hadn't thought about their career plans.

　Hisamari Shibasaki: "..."

　The wind is so beautiful.

　Amid these reflections, Shibasaki Hisami coughed and said, "The profession of magical girl has its share of dedicated idols, live streamers, studio owners... but let's put all that aside for now."

　"The main objectives are threefold: protecting the city, slaying monsters, and traveling around as bodyguards."

　As she said this, Shibasaki Kyūmari added, "There's already 'one' magical girl squad in Fuuto. Logically, that's not enough, but your agency doesn't seem to have any plans to increase the number."

　Indeed, it is strange that the entire city of Fuuto is managed by only Hikaru Yokawa and Nagisa Azuma, but what is even stranger is that... it is actually usable.

　The weirdos who wreak havoc in Fuuto are all utterly trash; the vast majority are newly awakened weaklings who don't even have a corporation.

　Sometimes, even without Yaochuan Guang and Lantian Zhu acting together, one of them can fight the monster without taking any damage.

　"However, your firm's idea is to train a team to fight monsters, instead of constantly spending money to find support."

　"So, I'm going to give a general overview now: the kind of knowledge your agency teaches, like 'monsters are all brainless idiots,' has recently been overturned... Those who frequently watch the live streams should already know this."

　"Never mind, we'll talk about it this afternoon... It's getting late, so let's end the morning classes here. Take a one-hour break, and after lunch, the afternoon spell class will teach other general spells."

　The moment Hisami Shibasaki announced her dismissal.

　The magical girl trainees started chattering away... of course, while lying on the mats.

　Meanwhile, Hikaru Yokawa began to wonder about a question she had wanted to ask before.

　"Congyu-chan, you seem to have a lot of magic power..."

　She remembered that Cong Yu had previously performed some spells in front of those magical girl trainees that looked like a waste of magic.

　The Salamander Silk has been maintained all along.

　He even looks relaxed now.

　"Hmm - quite a lot indeed."

　Cong Yu responded by poking Xiao Cui's face, which was weak and powerless... It felt soft and was very fun to touch.

　Actually, Cong Yu didn't want to pretend that her magic was exhausted...

　Well, I don't mean to drown myself in a sea of ​​magical girl trainees... although it sounds like an interesting experience.

　However, Cong Yu occasionally experiences similar sensations during the day, each time feeling difficulty breathing... He will be crushed to death by Xiao Cui sooner or later.

　Cong Yu failed to portray the confidence of someone who was "completely paralyzed."

　So at this moment, he had to make amends for himself.

　"I can feel myself getting stronger every day. I should be able to be as strong as a real magical girl soon, right? I'm not so sure."

　Cong Yu said this, briefly mentioning her increased strength... otherwise, it wouldn't make sense for her to suddenly become so skilled when she was just a noob not long ago.

　After all, Cong Yu had previously summoned the Jormungandr train, which could only gently overturn Qili.

　"Huh? It feels like I'm getting stronger every day? How powerful will I become later?"

　However, Yaochuan Guang kept asking questions and looking at Cong Yu with curiosity... If she had a tail, it would definitely be swishing back and forth.

　It is powerful enough to destroy the world.

　Speechless, Cong Yu thought to himself, rolled his eyes, and rubbed Yao Chuan Guang's head with both hands: "Becoming able to protect you guys, that's how powerful it is."

　Upon hearing this, Yaochuan Guang immediately showed an expression of gratitude—

　"Congyu-chan—"

　Hearing Yaochuan Guang's voice, the magical girl trainees' eyes lit up, and they started exclaiming "Wow!" "Wow!"
