Chapter 430 The Hyacinth's Reversal
Chapter 430 The Hyacinth's Reversal
This was the first time Su Tianqing had ever seen a daily activity with limited-time items in the Secret Codex.
"A free item trial event...that's pretty good."
Holding the small astral spirit core in her hand, Su Tianqing muttered to herself.
This round, crystal-ball-like little object gives the illusion of a priceless treasure. Beneath its crystal-clear outer shell lies a tiny, miniature divine stone, seemingly fragile enough to shatter at the slightest touch.
However, the knowledge I gained from the Stargazer's Encyclopedia tells me that this thing is actually quite common in the astral plane:
Astral magic naturally condenses into a solid state, and after being cultivated by the inhabitants of the astral realm, it can produce this interesting crystal.
Ms. Inari said this.
[First like this, then like this, and so on... See, it's formed now.]
Su Tianqing still remembers the tiny spirit core that Inari casually crystallized in her palm when she was chatting with her.
Miss Inari is terrifying! Unfathomable! She can create astral artifacts with ease! That was exactly what I thought at the time.
But when she made a spirit core that was two or three times larger than Inari's, Su Tianqing completely lost her fascination with these so-called astral creations.
"To put it bluntly, it's just a sturdy magical outer packaging," the fox girl retorted.
Well then, I'll focus on figuring out how to use this thing.
Su Tianqing looked down at the Star Realm Spirit Core in her hand.
【Astral Core - Personality Mirror Magic (One-Time Use)】, this is the limited-edition trial version that I finally chose.
The Fun Magic can only be used once. It can reverse the recipient's personality traits for a certain period of time without affecting characteristics such as preferences and memories.
The trial version limits the number of people affected to four, which was not unexpected. However, this has made choosing the targets of the magic a problem that I urgently need to think about.
Which one should I choose?
First of all, hyacinths are a must. This kid's stubborn and cowardly personality, which is all talk and no action, needs to be corrected and he needs to be educated a long time ago.
Then... a bunny seems like a good choice?
Su Tianqing imagined the image of Rabbit, who was usually cheerful but very restrained when fighting, and thought it would be quite amusing.
Cats are one thing, they just simply like to pick fights, and even if their personality were reversed, it wouldn't seem to change much.
...Something seems a bit off.
Su Tianqing seemed to realize something, straightened her back, and stopped wagging her fox tail behind her. She was thinking of a very critical question.
Upon closer reflection, although I have always maintained a sound attitude of finding fault, why do these props have a strange feeling?
There are dark side stories with reversed personalities, body-swapping stories, and even a transformation story where the character turns into a weak mouse.
There's even a solitary confinement play in a dream and a slime shoe play that got eaten by a censored monster...
Look, compared to those seemingly frivolous secret manuals, my thoughts are far too sound. You truly live up to my reputation.
Holding these props that can be used to create all sorts of R18-style games, yet just playing around with magical girls in a perfectly healthy way, this fox is practically an angel!
The angel fox girl proudly raised her fox-shaped steel plate and shifted her gaze to her feet.
This is the reservoir in northern Chengdu. Magical girls are engaged in a fierce battle on the water and in the sky. Not far away on the shore, the remains of the monster that has not completely dissipated can still be vaguely seen, with only half of its tail visible.
【Carp Monster】
Fearing that the creature would damage the reservoir, Hyacinth and Hellcat agreed that everyone should rush up and drag the carp monster out of the water and beat it up. Only after confirming that it was completely destroyed did they continue fighting amongst themselves.
No one noticed the fox girl floating in the sky on her wand, nor did they notice the little trinket in her hand that looked like a work of art.
Hyacinths and irises fight side by side, their shields and magic cannons forming a defensive line, struggling against the high-pressure combination of frontal assaults and stealthy sneak attacks from the cats and rabbits.
As always, Arum entangled Fenrir, while the two Alices and Nightingale were nowhere to be found. After searching for a while, they were finally found discussing the design of their mental world on the roof of the reservoir building.
"Kitty! Bunny! Doggy! Stop for a second!"
The fox spirit shouted loudly in the sky, and the amplification magic spread throughout the entire reservoir, making it clear to everyone.
Fenrir was about to instinctively reply, but Tian Nanxing barked twice before she could, leaving the gray wolf momentarily at a loss.
Hellcat slammed a punch into Hyacinth's shield, using the force to retreat to a safe position. He lightly touched down with his feet and floated down, using water magic to stand on the water's surface.
"Tch... Heart Moon Fox! What tricks do you have up your sleeve this time? Bring them on!"
Hyacinth gritted her teeth, wanting to rush after it, but fearing that the fox spirit above her might cause some trouble, she quickly shouted loudly.
The fox spirit simply smiled and clapped.
"What a wonderful battle, Miss Hyacinth."
"Fox, I knew I hadn't misjudged you. Ever since you learned the sword and shield form that the cat showed you, your defensive capabilities have increased dramatically."
"You don't need to tell me!" the hyacinth replied stubbornly.
Anyone could see at a glance that the hyacinth with the shield was incredibly resilient, but only Su Tianqing knew that she hadn't actually hit the cat hard; she was just playing around like a feline hunter toying with its prey.
"Bring it on, whatever your schemes and tricks are! I'm not afraid of you!"
"Oh my... it's panting like a little kitten, so cute~" Su Tianqing said with a light laugh, her gentle laughter leaving the usually composed Hyacinth speechless for a moment.
"Now that the warm-up is over, let's get down to business, Miss Hyacinth~"
Upon hearing this, everyone trembled.
Hellcat was slightly surprised, but upon seeing the astral core in the golden-haired fox girl's hand, it immediately turned into a joyful smile.
Only Hyacinth and the others, who were kept in the dark, looked terrified. Arisaema, with its ears down and head tucked in, tried to slip away, but Bai Ling grabbed its tail and dragged it back.
"What...what is that thing? You're not going to pull some weird stuff again—"
Congratulations, you got it right.
The fox spirit released the astral spirit core from her hand, letting it fall freely into the reservoir.
The sudden burst of magical light caused everyone to raise their hands to shield their eyes, leaving only the golden-haired fox girl's joyful laughter in their ears:
"Hahaha, hahahahaha!"
"This is my latest magical gadget! Once hit by the magic, a person's entire personality will undergo a complete transformation! I'm sure everyone is really looking forward to what's to come, right?"
"What?! Magic that directly affects the mind and soul? Where did you come from...?"
Bai Ling, hiding behind Tian Nanxing, exclaimed in astonishment, but before she could react, the light of the Star Realm Core had completely dissipated.
The water was deathly still, and everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, except for the fox spirit floating in the air who chuckled softly.
The nightingale looked around nervously, and then glanced down at her own condition.
I don't seem to feel any unusual changes in my body, and my brain circuits are no different from before. It seems that the spell was not successfully cast?
...Did it really not succeed?
The nightingale turned its gaze to the hyacinths and irises that stood motionless in place, and a rather ominous premonition arose in its heart.
"Miss Hyacinth".
The fox spirit called out with a soft laugh.
The sky-blue magical girl trembled, her usual expression one of fear, and she instinctively took half a step back.
"Fox, I want to ask you a question, and you must answer honestly."
"What is your favorite thing, the thing you most want me to give you, Fox Fox?... What is it~?"
Hyacinth stood awkwardly in place, its back and body hunched over, its timid appearance causing the nightingale's eyes to gradually widen.
"My...my favorite thing is..."
"It's...it's Mother Fox's tail...!"
