Chapter 400 The Stranger Arrives
Chapter 400 The Stranger Arrives
What exactly does the magical girls' special training entail?
Before witnessing the actual special training program firsthand, Wang Xiaowang knew nothing about its content and was filled with anticipation for the unknown.
Should they put on protective gear and fight each other in a ring like in a martial arts gym, or should they open a magic book and seriously learn spellcasting techniques?
It wasn't until the phantom hellcat, formed from magic, appeared before him that Hyacinth stepped forward to engage in hand-to-hand combat with it. Only then did Wang Xiaowang realize something:
Since they are magical girls, their training naturally requires the use of various kinds of magic.
"Using phantoms to simulate the Hellcat's movements allows for melee skill training without external assistance. How clever."
On the way back to school, Wang Xiaowang said to the fox spirit beside him.
There were few pedestrians on the street, and with the magic that the stargazers always had, their chatter went unheard by those around them.
"Magic can do many unexpected things!"
The fox spirit flew beside the dog girl and smiled at her, saying...
"So, Xiao Wang, are you starting to feel the charm of magical girls?"
"I've always been charming, I just think..."
The dog-girl hesitated for a moment, then slumped her shoulders in resignation and said:
"Sigh... Xiaoyue, how can I find the [conviction to protect]?"
"Everyone says I have a lot of magical talent, and I really like magical girls, but the Guardian Star doesn't acknowledge me at all..."
After saying that, Wang Xiaowang drooped his ears and tail, looking like a defeated dog.
"Well, although I really want to help you, it's up to you to figure out your own beliefs, Xiao Wang. I can only give you some very basic advice."
Yue Tianxin helplessly spread her hands, and the fox tail swayed a few times.
Belief is the most important thing for a magical girl, and it is also an inner concept that is difficult to form with the help of external forces.
At most, he could give her enough guidance, but whether she could develop a belief that would be recognized by the stars and the guardian star was still up to Wang Xiaowang to decide.
Thinking of this, Yue Tianxin glanced at the information page of the secret manual transmission in the magic space.
The friendship between Wang Xiaowang and Aurora has reached 98%, and they are only one step away from forming a deep friendship based on shared beliefs.
A single crisis is enough to break through that last 2%.
The dog girl and the fox spirit stopped in front of the dormitory building.
"That's enough for now. I need to go talk to Tianqing about training," Yue Tianxin said.
"Does Sister Tianqing also need training?"
"It's probably not necessary. She's studying at medical school and is extremely busy. Besides, her enhancement magic is our trump card, so we shouldn't use her unless absolutely necessary."
"Oh, I see... Well then, see you tomorrow. I need to go back to my dorm and pack up the clothes that have dried!" Dog Girl said goodbye to Tsukishiro reluctantly.
Goodbye~
Yue Tianxin watched the dog-girl walk into the dormitory, then looked around.
It was the weekend holiday, and most of the students in the dormitory chose to sleep until noon. At this time, there were very few students at the gate, only a handful of diligent people who had gotten up early to study in the library and were returning home.
Aurora doesn't seem to be in the dorm right now, but I remember she has a full day of classes starting at 8 am tomorrow, so she'll come from home to the dorm tonight to stay overnight, making it easier for her to go to class tomorrow morning.
Decided!
Wang Xiaowang's magical girl spirit will blossom tonight!
【Task Update】
[Task Chain 8: Acclimatization Issues]
[By leveraging the conflict between the Fenfeng Squad and Alice, we can guide Wang Xiaowang to establish a belief in protection.]
[Implementation Phase]
Once the fox spirit returned to Su Tianqing's side, the secret manual also timely refreshed the new stage of this quest chain.
[Execution Phase: Complete an attack disguised as a wild monster, advancing the friendship between Aurora and Wang Xiaowang]
well.
Everything is proceeding according to plan.
The magical girl belief plan, which she had meticulously planned for a long time, has finally completed all the preparatory stages and is ready to officially begin.
The fox spirit mentally rehearsed what might happen tonight:
According to the forecast from the Strange Compass, two wild strange creatures will attack tonight. One of them should hold off the Hyacinth Squad, while the other should be intercepted by the cat.
This ensures that the most disruptive combat force on the scene is held back.
Since tonight is the team's rest day, Rabbit and Big Dog will not be participating. I've arranged for them to stay in the dormitory to prevent more monsters from launching attacks.
Therefore, the only variable left is the Burning Wind Squad.
How can we ensure that Fenfeng will be the first to arrive at the scene and witness Alice, who is alone, doing everything she can to protect Wang Xiaowang?
"...There is only one way."
As Su Tianqing said this, she turned her head and exchanged a glance with Yue Tianxin, who was driving an automatic car.
The fox spirit immediately understood, made a "leave it to me" expression, swayed its fox tail, and flew towards the apartment where the Burning Wind Squad lived.
Let Yue Tianxin, as the "Hyacinth Special Training Consultant," go to find the lion spirit Merlin and Isara, the true form of the Fiery Wind.
The fox spirits would pretend to discuss the special training plan with them, but in reality, they would ensure that the Burning Wind Squad knew about the attack on the Liberal Arts Academy as soon as possible.
"Foe is stubbornly convinced that Alice is the 'Jack the Ripper' who must be arrested and brought to justice. What interesting things will she do when she witnesses Alice's efforts to protect her civilian companions?"
"Hehehe... This is getting more and more exciting."
……
Time flies.
As night fell, the alarm for the monster attack sounded as scheduled, shattering the tranquility of the night sky.
"A strange man has attacked the western suburbs of Chengdu! The Hyacinth Squad is dispatched to intercept him!"
"A strange person has appeared at the southern airport! Kokoro and Hellcat are confirmed to be on the scene and are launching an attack!"
Two striking monster attack alerts popped up on her phone screen, making the dog-girl, who was lying on the bed, a little nervous.
"Woof, two weirdos have appeared again tonight. Things haven't been peaceful lately."
"Hmm... It's said to be the effect of a magic storm. Hopefully, it will pass soon."
Aurora was also lying in bed, responding to Wang Xiaowang's words.
Tonight was a rest day for the villains' activities, and since Fox didn't invite her to participate, Aurora simply went to bed early to rest and prepare for tomorrow's 8 a.m.
Wang Xiaowang seemed to be getting tired of playing too, and the two little ones chatted through the mosquito net to pass the time before bed.
As they chatted, the dog girl's tail and ears drooped down.
"I'm a little sleepy, woof..."
"Xiao Wang, you go to sleep first. I'll keep an eye on the situation with this strange attack today."
"Woof... Thank you for your hard work... Woof..."
Wang Xiaowang yawned deeply, rolled over in bed, rolled up his bedding, and soon began to breathe evenly and deeply.
Aurora remained silent for a long time before looking down at the live stream on her phone screen featuring Heart Moon Fox.
...Xiao Wang was the first serious friend I made besides Sister Tianqing and the others.
During this time together, her love for magical girls gave her a strange sense of familiarity.
Can I become her friend?
Can I be her strongest support?
Even though she is the villainous magical girl Alice, can she do everything she can for such an ordinary friend?
Aurora felt her eyelids starting to droop, and a yawn involuntarily escaped her throat. She simply turned off her phone, crawled into bed, and stared blankly at the mosquito net and the ceiling.
I might as well take a nap first and watch Fox's live stream replay tomorrow morning.
We can watch it together with Xiao Wang, and even discuss it together...
"——————!!"
"Strange guy alert! Strange guy alert!"
A piercing, high-pitched police siren blared outside the dormitory building.
Aurora almost immediately jumped off the bed, and the dog girl also woke up from her light sleep, her tail and ears taut. The two of them looked out the window at the same time.
"Weird Guy Alert!"
"Rongcheng College of Arts and Sciences has been attacked by a strange man! All personnel are requested to proceed to the nearest shelter immediately!"
Besides the piercing sound, a towering shadow slowly rose from in front of the dormitory building, filling the two people's vision, which was filled with fear.
The third oddball tonight has appeared at the Liberal Arts College!
