Starting with magical girls, I'll reign supreme for eternity.

Chapter 153 Filling in the Gaps in Realm Levels (6600 words)
"Oh my, who is that girl? Why is she acting like Jiang Si's girlfriend? Why is she getting so close to Jiang Si?"

"They're good friends."

"Don't be so nonchalant! Jiang Si is going to be snatched away! Snatched away!"

"What do you mean by 'stolen'? Don't put it so harshly." An Shiyu sat in the car, responding to Mu Jin with a hint of helplessness. "They are good friends, it's normal for them to have a good relationship."

"Damn it! Don't you like Jiang Si? If I were you, I'd be yelling at this vixen to get lost! Jiang Si confessed to you, and you said yes! You're Jiang Si's girlfriend now! Jiang Si is yours! You should have tried to kiss her back in that private space. That would have guaranteed you the win!"

"Don't talk nonsense. It will cause trouble for Jiang Sitian."

An Shiyu, resting her chin on her hand, looked out the window at the scenery and said, "It's already very good."

"You, you clearly have such a big advantage right now, but you're not attacking. Be careful that you don't lose all your advantages and end up losing everything."

Mu Jin said indignantly, "We've seen too many girls who are always reserved and like to passively wait for boys to pursue them. They're unwilling to take the initiative when they meet someone they like, and as a result, they get snatched away by someone with just a few words, and then they regret it!"

"Senior Mujin, you've never been in a relationship, yet you know so much."

"Do you want to argue with us?"

"No."

Mu Jin was a little angry, but after getting to know them for so long, she had pretty much figured it out: the other party really didn't mean any harm.

An Shiyu's greatest skill is saying hurtful things without any malice!

However, considering that An Shiyu was willing to share the Miracle Seed, which was practically giving up ownership of the magical girl form to me, ensuring my survival and preventing me from disappearing along with the mental image remnants.

Hibiscus had no choice but to swallow her anger.

"Anyway, you won't regret it!"

"Why would I regret it?"

"Those girls we've seen who were never proactive all regretted it in the end. Think about it carefully! Love is a deep and complex thing. Don't always think about letting boys pursue you. Most of the boys who pursue you won't be interested in you. When you meet someone you like, you have to take the initiative. Girls, especially pretty girls like you, chasing boys is a piece of cake..."

"I don't want anyone to pursue me," An Shiyu yawned and glanced to the side.

Peony, the senior next to me, had already fallen asleep. I had basically been holding her and crying all day. Susan, the senior next to me, was just staring blankly at her phone.

Everyone at the Beihai Disaster Management Bureau is really great.

An Shiyu felt extremely guilty for leaving without saying goodbye to Senior Peony, which caused her to feel guilty for a long time.

But at the time, she didn't expect it to turn out that way. She just thought that she would go to the vicinity of the Heart Remnant with Miss Dongjun and the others and then come back.

"That Dongjun, and that white magical girl next to her, if you had let her into the Heart Remnant back then, maybe we could have found out their secrets and their relationship with Jiang Si, and then we could have dealt with them accordingly..."

"Don't do that," An Shiyu immediately warned Mu Jin. "That's not good."

"I know, I was just saying. I'm a proper magical girl..."

Originally, the Heart Remnant was supposed to pull everyone in, but An Shiyu tried her best to protect Dong Jun and Bai Mei.

Not wanting the two of them to be implicated, Mu Jin didn't involve Dong Jun and Bai Mei at the time.

Now, Mu Jin herself is quite curious about the relationship between these two people and Jiang Si.

If we had brought in the remains of the mental image back then, we would have known...

Damn it, I'm so anxious! Although An Shiyu isn't in a hurry, Mu Jin is frantic!
The magical girl who has never been in love is quite critical of the date in her private space, but it is her first time being so close to a boy, and she is extremely concerned about it.

If An Shiyu succeeds, that would be fine. With An Shiyu's body, there would be plenty of opportunities to continue contacting Jiang Si.

But if Jiang Si is lured away by another girl, wouldn't she have no chance at all?
If An Shiyu doesn't like anyone else, then Mu Jin's chances of finding love are completely over.
She just couldn't understand why An Shiyu wasn't worried at all.

We can tell you're not exactly sitting back and doing nothing.

"Oh, Xiao Shi."

"Xiaoyu and Xiaoan are both better than Xiaoshi, right, senior?"

"I still think Xiaoshi's poems sound better," Mujin sighed. "Are you really planning to do nothing?"

"What does Senior Mujin think I should do?"

"Fight, snatch, and battle! Love is war! These are the words of your favorite Jiang Si!" Mu Jin said earnestly. "If we can't beat them, let us! We're all in! We'll do everything in our power to pursue the people and things we love, leaving no regrets!"

"But, Senior Mujin, what if we have regrets after trying to achieve it?"

"what?"

An Shiyu breathed gently on the car window and wiped it clean with her fingertips to make the glass clearer. "I just want to stay by his side, senior. I've already expressed everything I needed to. Going any further would only cause him trouble, and I don't want to be seen as a nuisance by him."

"Here we go again..."

“Fighting, battling, arguing with the girls around Jiang Si.” An Shiyu shook her head. “I have neither the right nor the desire. The girls around Jiang Si are all very nice. Maybe Jiang Si really likes one of them.”

That's why we have to rob it!

"Uh, senior, put yourself in my shoes. Suppose, I mean suppose, I know it's not true, but there might be other boys who like me. If one of those boys went to cause trouble for Jiang Si because he likes me, how would you feel?"

Mu Jin chuckled, "Of course it's awesome! When we watch TV dramas, we love watching two boys fight over a girl. It's the same when it's reversed, right?"

“…I would just find it super annoying.” An Shiyu leaned against the window, looking somewhat helpless at Senior Mu Jin. “I would just be thinking about whether I would make Jiang Si angry, whether he would think I was a troublesome girl, whether he would think I did it on purpose, and whether I would make Jiang Si hate me. So I would never accept such a thing.”

"The reverse is also true. Jiang Si won't like me more just because I try to win him over. On the contrary, he'll only find me annoying and troublesome, and he'll never want to have anything to do with me again. Just live your own life well, do your best to be a qualified magical girl in the Disaster Management Bureau, and then appear in front of Jiang Si when he needs you. Being able to see him anytime and stay by his side is enough."

Mu Jin finally gave up. "Fine, it seems I can't convince you. Humph, it seems you don't like Jiang Si that much. If you really liked her, you would do anything..."

“No, Senior Mujin, fighting for something at all costs actually means being able to accept failure,” An Shiyu retorted softly. “Because even if you fail, it won’t be worse, so you can take the risk to pursue success.”

"But I can't accept it."

“I have already lost so much, Senior Mujin. I cannot take even the slightest risk. So for me, from the very beginning, the option of possibly failing and being disliked and ostracized by Jiang Si did not exist.”

An Shiyu said earnestly, "To me, Jiang Si is that important."

"...I apologize. It was wrong of me to doubt your sincerity. I'm sorry."

Of course, Mu Jin knew about An Shiyu's past.

In a crumbling world, the girl had only that one pillar left; if it fell, it seemed the whole world would collapse.

This is not due to An Shiyu's weakness. On the contrary, in such a fragile world, as soon as a lifeline was extended to her, the girl desperately grabbed it and turned this straw, which was not extended specifically for her, into a pillar supporting the entire world.

Mu Jin thought it was truly amazing...

"We've arrived in Beihai."

After the driver ahead gave a warning, he stopped the car, and everyone got out.

An Shiyu said something to the two seniors, then flew up and stood high in the sky, looking down at the entire Beihai.

Skyscrapers standing side by side, neatly planned roads, streets, parks, squares, shopping malls...

When she had a clear view of everything, An Shiyu asked softly, "How is it, Senior Mujin? How does Beihai compare to the one you remember?"

Having regained control of An Shiyu's body, Mu Jin gazed deeply at her hometown, feeling a mix of regret, melancholy, and longing.

But more than anything, it's a sense of contentment and happiness.

To resolve the crisis in South China, he left his hometown and, after more than a decade, finally reunited with it.

I thought I would never be able to come back.

Perhaps she is the lucky magical girl in full bloom.

So, as if embracing the North Sea, Mu Jin opened her arms and whispered:

"Beihai is even more beautiful now."

……

There should be a distinction between full bloom and peak blossom.

Jiang Si has been thinking about this matter recently.

The difference between "Flourishing Bloom" and "Full Bloom" is too great, clearly indicating a collapse in the realm.

As we all know, the collapse of boundaries is a common occurrence in online novels.

For example, in the classic Dou Zun Nine Revolutions, there is only one star difference between a nine-star Dou Zun and a Dou Sheng. However, one needs to reach the peak of nine-star Dou Zun, then undergo nine revolutions to become a half-saint, and then go from a primary half-saint to a high-level half-saint to the peak of a high-level half-saint, which is a saint, and then break through again to reach the one-star Dou Sheng realm. It was thanks to the good fortune of the ancestor Yan Di Xiao Yan that he was able to break through from nine-revolution Dou Zun to half-saint and then to Dou Sheng.

For example, the Title Douluo system was divided into Ordinary Title Douluo, Level 95 Super Douluo, Level 98 Peak Douluo, Level 98.5 Demigod Douluo, and Level 99 Quasi-God Limit Douluo; there were also five realms crammed between Qin Yu's Black Hole and the Origin Point, eleven realms crammed between Luo Feng's Immortal and Universe Venerable, and eight realms crammed between True Monarch Level 5 and Nascent Soul Dao Master, and so on...

Even my great saga couldn't avoid this; as the story progressed, it was discovered that having only four realms was too rudimentary, forcing the addition of more realms to fill the gaps in combat power...

Therefore, the collapse of realms is not a big problem. It is perfectly normal for realms designed by the Disaster Management Bureau to collapse.

In other words, he knew nothing about the full bloom at the beginning and never imagined that the gap would be so big.

Otherwise, the stage between full bloom and peak bloom would be reached much earlier from the beginning.

In the novel *Covering the Sky*, there is a transitional stage between the Great Sage and the Great Emperor, called the Quasi-Emperor Ninth Heaven.

Originally, he was only at the level of a half-step Great Emperor, but later he expanded to the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor.

Each level of heaven requires passing through a tribulation of lightning, rebuilding and perfecting all the previous secret realms, laying a solid foundation for becoming a great emperor.

Jiang Si also planned to follow suit and attempt a half-step full bloom nine-layered heaven during the peak bloom and full bloom stages.

The question now is, is Shengzhan considered half-full bloom?
Jiang Si realized that his cultivation level after transformation was indeed at the peak of the Blooming Peak, but after seeing Dong Jun also step into the peak of the Blooming Peak, he discovered a problem.

His own peak of Blooming Perfection still seems to far surpass that of ordinary peak of Blooming Perfection.

Even though Dongjun has reached the peak of the Blooming Realm, it still seems difficult for him to approach the level he has reached after his transformation.

Therefore, we still need to add a realm of near-full opening, which is half-step full opening, the realm of near-full opening nine heavens.
It sounds a bit awful, mainly because it lacks a certain sophistication. "Quasi-Emperor Ninth Heaven" sounds extraordinary, while "Quasi-Opening Ninth Heaven" sounds a bit like something out of a car.

"Nine Heavens Near Full"? That doesn't quite feel right. Realm names really do have a lot of significance; the grandeur of my Great Heaven-Covering Sect isn't so easily replicated...

It's a pity Bai Mei isn't here; otherwise, with her years of experience working here, she might have been of great help.

I'll go to the Illusion Moon Cave later and ask the other disciples if they have any good ideas.

As soon as they entered Beihai, Yumo rushed over, hugged him, and burst into tears.

It seems that the Daoist cultivation course given to Yu Mo before was ultimately not completed very well.

However, since the path of extreme emotion can be followed by magical girls, there is no need to force Yumo to follow the path of ruthlessness.

The little girl hugged him and cried for a while until she was tired and then she actually fell asleep.

Bing Tang said she hadn't slept for several days, and she and Qing Hua had been using the puppets to search for Jiang Si.

Upon learning that Jiang Si had returned, he immediately rushed back from South China.

They were completely exhausted.

Jiang Sixiang originally intended to wake her up; how could a cultivator be so lax?

But at Bing Tang's suggestion, he carried Yu Mo for a while.

After reporting the recent movements of the true disciples and the current situation to him, Bing Tang took Yu Mo back to the Qingyun Sect.

Jiang Si originally wanted to go back to Qingyun Sect to train for a while.

But Bing Tang insisted that he go back to see Ke Ke first, and even told him to go buy some gifts to take back with him.

Although Jiang Si felt it was unnecessary, she had paid for the rock candy after all.

He went to a nearby shopping mall to buy some of the cakes he had previously bought for Yotsuba and Rokuyo. Jiang Si remembered that Coco liked desserts, but she couldn't quite recall. As they grew up, they rarely ate such expensive and uneconomical things. She only remembered that when she was little, she ate cakes happily on her birthday.

While she was buying gifts, Bing Tang was still sending her messages on her phone.

The artifacts from the Mirror Kingdom, containing a wealth of information, have been taken back by Bing Tang, who plans to find someone to decipher the Mirror Kingdom's technology and writing.

I heard that there are people in the Qingyun Sect who are related to the Mirror Kingdom, but Bing Tang didn't tell him who they were.

Cake, a small portion of cold noodles, cheap sugar, and milk tea.

After buying the rock sugar, I still had a lot of money left over.

As soon as I stepped out of the mall with my things, I saw a message from Bing Tang on my phone.

"Rose does indeed recognize the script of the Mirror Kingdom; she has already deciphered the previous research report on the power characteristics of Full Bloom..."

Upon seeing this, Jiang Si immediately prepared to change her itinerary.

Let's go back to the Illusion Moon Cave of the Qingyun Sect first, find out what happened with Man Kai, and then it won't be too late to go back to find Coco...

"elder brother?"

As he reached the door, a trembling, incredulous voice called out to him.

Jiang Si glanced at her and saw Coco dragging a suitcase, dressed in a simple white dress. Her face was haggard and pale, and her once beautiful eyes were now surrounded by dark circles and were red and swollen.

She called his name, and the suitcase in her hand fell to the ground.

"elder brother!"

……

Coco slept at home for a day and a night after Ziyuan left that day.

She didn't know if she was asleep or unconscious. In her dream, her parents and older brother were living together, leaving her in a cold, dark place. No matter how much she called out, they ignored her.

She was all alone now.

In this family, in this world, she is the only one left.

Coco didn't wake up from her dream until the next day, and when she did, her pillow was almost soaked with sweat.

It was all her tears.

Yiyi called her several times, but Keke didn't answer.

She finally understood why Yiyi's sister hadn't been told beforehand when she passed away.

Because I simply didn't have that kind of feeling.

They don't want to hear any sympathy or comfort from others, and they don't want to accept anything from the outside world.

so tired.

She told Yiyi that she wasn't feeling well and needed to rest for two days.

Even if we bring Yiyi, it won't make a difference; it will only remind her of her lost sister.

Some things cannot be shared; sharing them will only cause more pain.

I cleaned and tidied up the house, and also dressed myself up nicely.

Coco rarely dresses up. Thinking about it carefully, the reason is probably that when she was a child, before her relationship with her brother deteriorated, Jiang Si always told her that appearance was not important and not to waste too much time on it.

She took out her mother's lipstick, put it on herself, and then drew eyeliner, not knowing if it looked good or not.

They just looked much more energetic, not so lifeless.

She packed all her parents' belongings into her suitcase, along with some clothes, and originally intended to pack Jiang Si's things.

But all Jiang Si left at home were those incredibly heavy dumbbells. She tried a few times, but eventually gave up.

I greeted my neighbors and brought them some snacks to thank them for taking care of me during this time.

In reality, they didn't interact much, but Coco wanted to make it as perfect as possible.

Then I sent a scheduled text message to the teacher, and also prepared a few scheduled text messages for Yiyi.

The two trees in front of my house have completely withered and are an eyesore.

So in the middle of the night, she transformed into a magical girl, pulled out the two dead trees, and threw them far away.

After finishing, he sat in front of the door, between two trees, and buried his head in his knees.

I cried for a little while late at night.

There were no lush mulberry trees, no deafening cicada chirps, and not even a trace of the sweltering summer heat remained.

The enormous house was like a tomb, lifeless and terrifyingly large.

Coco didn't actually remember anything; she just wanted to cry.

After crying, she wiped away her tears, got up, went back to her room, and continued doing other things.

She resigned, dropped out of school, and then took out all the remaining money in her family, leaving a considerable amount for Jiang Si.

Since her parents left, Jiang Si has been in control of the family's assets. She never spends money recklessly, but Jiang Si also tells her where the money is, and Coco knows the bank card account numbers and passwords.

Coco discovered that she was still the same crybaby she used to be.

Because her brother was still there, because he was always there with a blank expression, Coco was always able to hold back her tears.

As long as that person is around, she can't help but want to be strong and hide her weakness.

Although she was saddened by her parents' passing, she quickly became angry because of her brother's attitude.

Therefore, she always thought she was very strong and could quickly recover no matter what setbacks she encountered.

Even with such a cold-hearted brother, she managed to survive; she's amazing...

But now she realizes that, in reality, she is still just that little girl who only knows how to hide behind her older brother.

No matter how cold-hearted he is, his older brother will still stand in front of her and help her solve many, many problems.

Those relatives who used to help her whenever her brother asked only once now just give her perfunctory replies when she says her brother is not here and she hopes they can help.

Instead, we started talking about real estate.

After all, this house is very expensive.

Remembering how her relatives treated her brother when he was alive, Coco couldn't help but cry.

She deleted her relatives' contact information and while packing her things, she saw the wound medicine that Jiang Si had given her before, and she couldn't help but cry again. She also couldn't help but shed tears when she went to the toilet.

A cowardly and weak crybaby who can't do anything.

Even so, Coco tidied up the house and dressed herself up a bit more presentably.

With my luggage in hand, I planned to go to the station to buy a ticket to the small town of Anyang.

She was going to find her brother, and she didn't want to come back until she found him.

Coco doesn't really dare to think about the things she and her older brother did in the past.

Because once I think about it, I'm always gripped by regret, and it's almost impossible to breathe.

After causing the deaths of her parents, she shamelessly blamed her older brother for his indifference and enjoyed his protection, but in the end, she never apologized to him.

They can't speak up because they feel ashamed, and they always feel there's still time and opportunity.

So, I always thought it wouldn't matter if I delayed it a little longer.

Until now, there has been no more chance.

The sheer frustration of wanting to kill herself whenever she thought about it made her afraid to think about it anymore, leaving her like a walking corpse.

Tell yourself that after you've taken care of everything, go find your brother.

For the rest of my life, I'll just go find my brother.

If you can't find it, then die...

Why don't you just die?

I left home in a daze and went to a nearby shopping mall to buy some daily necessities before leaving.

Then, I saw Jiang Si.

"elder brother?"

She called out tentatively, somewhat bewildered.

Then panic ensued, because the fleeting hope she had felt made her realize the pain and despair that followed its shattering.

It would break the string that had been stretched too tight, and cause her already fragile resolve to crumble.

Don't have hope, don't have hope, don't...

However, when the familiar face turned around, the suitcase he was clutching fell to the ground.

As customers walked back and forth at the mall entrance, many of them turned to look at her as she called out.

The sound of advertisements drifted from the mall, along with the aroma of various desserts.

"elder brother!"

Her voice suddenly became uncontrollably distorted, tinged with sobs.

Tears started flowing uncontrollably again, and my eyes, which had been soaked in tears for too long, felt a stinging pain. I subconsciously took two steps forward and then immediately started jogging.

She ran to Jiang Si's side and grabbed his wrist.

She gripped his wrist tightly, her feigned strength crumbling completely, and she could only cry as she asked:

"Where did you go, brother? Don't leave me alone, don't leave me alone..."

Jiang Si looked at her and thought she looked like her little sister who had been lost when she was a child. She felt that this girl hadn't grown up at all, even though she was so old.

She cries just like she did when she was a child.

"Dating."

After all, it was agreed beforehand that he would go on a date with Shion, so there was no need to change the story.

Coco held his hand, sobbing uncontrollably, tears falling onto his hand, which was still warm.

Passersby watched with curiosity, but no one came over to disturb them.

A refreshing breeze dried some of the tears, and the sun shone down from the mall exit.

Coco sniffed, her eyes brimming with tears as she gripped his hand, her voice still choked with emotion:

"Brother, let's go home, I want to go home..."

Jiang Si handed the pastries she had bought to Coco and nodded.

"I have something to do, you should take a taxi home first."
