Do you think this world is serious?

Principal Cecilia muttered to herself, as if responding to Chen Xiuming's words, but she did not retract her right hand.

If the simulation combat device could mimic this power, then she wouldn't have had a chance to suppress Chen Xiuming at all. She would likely have been killed by Chen Xiuming in the very first encounter, just like how Magical Sirin was instantly killed by Sirin.

Kira glanced at Principal Cecilia's right hand, which she hadn't retracted, and was speechless.

This is more than just an attempt to build rapport; Principal Cecilia might just give it away for free.

Considering Chen Xiuming's mysterious background and the high probability that he could help Principal Cecilia fulfill her long-held wish, Qi Luoxing suddenly felt that it was quite normal for Principal Cecilia to "give it away" for free.

If she were in a similar situation, she would probably "lose everything" too.

"Mr. Chen Xiuming, since you're already here, how about a simple sparring session?"

"it is good."

Chen Xiuming had originally planned to spar with Principal Cecilia frequently to increase his combat experience, so he naturally couldn't refuse her suggestion.

However, before lying down in the virtual battle device, he first "reported the situation" to Cecilia, letting her know why he hadn't come home on time.

Upon learning that Chen Xiuming was with the school principal Cecilia, Cecilia didn't say much, only sending a "good luck" emoji.

Principal Cecilia showed no mercy this time, so Chen Xiuming had no chance to slowly build up the Saintess's power to suppress the Honkai energy. He was defeated by Principal Cecilia in just a few minutes.

It might be Chen Xiuming's imagination, but he always felt that after Principal Cecilia defeated him, her spirits and energy improved a lot.

Principal Cecilia stretched, the heavy burden on her shoulders dissipating, and she felt incredibly relaxed.

"Demon King, oh Demon King... when will you appear next?"

Principal Cecilia's eyes lit up with a bright light, as if she were expecting something, or perhaps excited.

If we wait for the "Demon King" to appear again, we can finally break the tragic cycle of magical girls.

"Does Freya want to go to the flower shop together?"

"Headmaster, Brolo is in the library. I need to go find her first, and then go to the Shaniat Flower Shop."

"Ah."

Principal Cecilia nodded gently and continued softly, "Be careful on the road."

Freya made a soft nasal sound, then glanced at Sirin, who was sitting obediently in Angelia's arms, and stared at Chen Xiuming for a few seconds, seemingly lost in thought.

Immediately, she turned and left the virtual battle room, heading straight for the library where Brolo was, eager to share what had happened in the virtual battle room.

Putting aside the flirtatious exchange between Chen Xiuming and the school principal Cecilia, the fact that Magic Sirin was defeated twice by Sirin in a row was enough to surprise Brolo.

Chapter 78 "Legendary Music Mentor" Maria.

Before heading to the Shaniat flower shop, Principal Cecilia bought some "greeting gifts," which were some very delicious cakes.

The main purpose of this trip to the Shaniat Flower Shop was actually to familiarize myself with the area, as I will likely visit the Shaniat Flower Shop frequently in the future.

At this moment, the only customer at Shaniat Flower Shop was Triri, who had previously visited the flower shop with Magic Sirin.

Trillie's main goal in coming to the flower shop was to select some potion-making flowers, and secondly, to ask Cecilia for advice on how to keep the potion-making flowers in good condition.

However, Cecilia cultivates potion flowers by accelerating plant growth, so she cannot answer Trillie's question.

After learning about this, Terri was somewhat disappointed and dejected, but she was not discouraged at all.

Before she could leave the flower shop, she saw Magic Sirin enter the flower shop with Chen Xiuming and the others, so she temporarily gave up the idea of ​​returning to the Magical Girl Academy and decided to go back with Magic Sirin later.

Despite the precedent of Magic Sirin and Sirin, both Magic Sirin and Trillie were still surprised to see two Cecilia at the same time.

Magical Sirin greeted Cecilia and Maria, then followed Sirin upstairs to prepare for their first tutoring session.

Trillie looked around and realized she might not be able to participate in the conversation between Chen Xiuming and the others, so she simply followed Sirin and Magic Sirin to the second floor.

Although her practical assessment scores were not as good as Magic Sirin's, her theoretical knowledge was very solid, so assisting Magic Sirin in tutoring Sirin should not be a problem.

Naïve Sirin thought that Magic Sirin and Trillie were going to her room to play together, little did she know that she was about to face an almost endless period of studying.

On the other side, Chen Xiuming and others passed through the flower shop and held a simple "tea party" in the pavilion in the backyard of the flower shop.

The topics of conversation were varied, ranging from everyday family matters to work-related issues.

The "tea party" came to an end after Principal Cecilia finished eating the cake she had bought. However, Principal Cecilia and Kira Hoshino did not leave but continued to chat.

Among them, Qi Luoxing is particularly confident in showcasing her singing voice.

Principal Cecilia knew how "terrifying" Kira Hoshi's singing was, and gave a somewhat helpless smile, but did not stop Kira Hoshi.

Before long, Qi Luoxing finished singing a not-so-pleasant song with her off-key voice, seemingly waiting expectantly for Chen Xiuming and the three Shaniat sisters' evaluation.

Cecilia smiled but remained silent.

Angelia bit the plastic spoon, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping herself.

Chen Xiuming pretended not to see Qi Luoxing's expectant gaze and quietly discussed with Principal Cecilia about their upcoming work and the time they would spend practicing in the virtual battle room every day.

In contrast, Maria, unlike the others, did not ignore Kira's expectations and bluntly commented on Kira's singing voice: "It sounds better if you just read the lyrics."

Qi Luoxing was deeply affected and looked very dejected.

Maria pondered for a few seconds, then tried to teach Kira Hoshino to sing.

Singing was a required subject in her "aristocratic education," so she knew how to teach people to sing.

Then, something unbelievable happened.

Under Maria's tutelage, Qiluoxing's "tone-deaf" singing voice miraculously returned to normal. Although her singing was prone to going off-key, it was at least within the range of normal singing.

Cecilia and Angelia had only known Qiluoxing for a short time and didn't know much about it, so they didn't sense anything amiss.

Principal Cecilia knows Qiluoxing very well. She knows that Qiluoxing once sought out many "famous teachers" to practice singing, but instead of improving her terrible singing, she accidentally created the [Musical Magic] she has today.

Seeing Maria so easily change Kira's flaw of singing poorly, he was astonished and stared at Maria in surprise.

Chen Xiuming was astonished by this, while Qi Luoxing was so excited that she was incoherent.

Maria waved her hand gently, her expression calm, as if she had done something insignificant.

At least in her view, teaching people to sing was indeed a trivial matter.

However, in the eyes of Chen Xiuming, Principal Cecilia, and Qi Luoxing, her "miraculous feat" could be described as that of a "legendary music mentor".

Qiluoxing has made up her mind to visit Maria at the Shaniat Flower Shop often so that she can teach her to sing.

……

Not long after, Freya and Brolo arrived late, but when they entered the flower shop, they couldn't find anyone else there, and they couldn't help but look puzzled.

"...Did you go out on something?"

Freya murmured in confusion.

"Didn't go out, meow."

Anila, who had been perched on the front desk, jumped behind it and quietly transformed into human form. Peeking out from under the desk at Freya and Brolo, she said, "You'll see them in the backyard, meow~"

Froai and Brolo had never seen Anila in human form, and found Anila's "meow" verbal tic fascinating.

Anila appears to be an eleven or twelve-year-old girl, with a youthful and adorable appearance, but unlike Sirin, she doesn't possess the gentleness of a "little angel." Instead, she exudes a cold and aloof aura that keeps strangers at bay.

Freya walked up to Anila and reached out to press down on Anila's long purple hair.

Anila's hair is very fluffy, and it feels like a furry animal to the touch, making it irresistible.

"Meow~"

Anila made a soothing sound, like a cat's meow, and did not resist Fulei's caresses.

Seeing this, Brolo was somewhat tempted and tentatively stroked Anila's hair. Seeing that Anila did not resist, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.

"So cute."

Brolo whispered.

In no time, Anila's hair was a mess from being rubbed by the two of them.

Freya and Brolo exchanged a glance, and then simultaneously helped Anila tidy up her long hair that they had ruffled.

Anila never showed any resistance or dissatisfaction. After all, in her eyes, the way Volla and Brolo ruffled her hair was not much different from a cat being stroked.

After helping her fix her hair, Freya and Brolo walked through the back door leading to the backyard of the flower shop, and then saw the two Cecilias sitting together, and stood there blankly.

"How can there be two school principals?"

Freya seemed unable to believe reality. "Bolo, am I under an illusion spell?"

"...Although it's unbelievable, you shouldn't be under any illusion magic."

Brolo gently nudged the stunned Freya and asked, "Have you forgotten about Sirin? Since another Sirin has appeared, it's normal for another headmistress to appear as well."

"Right."

Fulei suddenly snapped out of her reverie, nodded in agreement, and then strode towards the pavilion.

Although the pavilion wasn't full, it became a bit crowded with the arrival of Flora and Brolo.

The two magical girls, who arrived late, secretly observed Cecilia and the headmistress Cecilia, only to discover that they were not like Sirin and Magical Sirin, who only resembled each other in appearance. Apart from their clothes, they were exactly the same in both appearance and demeanor.

Chapter 79 An Introduction to Magic

Freya and Brolo sat next to Kira Star, roughly opposite the two Cecilias.

Not knowing what Chen Xiuming and the others were talking about, they didn't immediately join the conversation. Instead, they listened quietly to the conversation while carefully observing the two Cecilias.

If it weren't for the fact that Principal Cecilia wasn't wearing her standard principal's uniform, they really wouldn't have been able to tell who Principal Cecilia was.

Qi Luoxing kept pestering Maria, wanting Maria to continue teaching her to sing, but Maria thought it was a bit troublesome, so she let Qi Luoxing practice on her own.

However, without Maria's guidance, Qiluo Star can only maintain the status quo at best, and may even regress a bit, degenerating back to its previous "murderous song".

Upon hearing Kira Star hum a song that was within the realm of normal human voices, Freya and Brolo stared wide-eyed, even more surprised than when they saw the two Cecilias.

"Bolo, are we really not under the influence of illusion magic?"
