Why is My Magical Life in a Gal Art Style?

The sky was azure, and the clouds were white.

The mist was dissipating under the warm sunshine, and the fragrance of spring flowers was carried by the breeze into the classroom of Class 6, Grade 11.

In the second-to-last row, by the window, sat a handsome young man. He rested his chin on his hand, gazing blankly out the window, his mind replaying memories from before his transmigration.

"I'm not bragging, but in the world of visual novels, I'm definitely a veteran!"

"What kind of nook and cranny haven't I explored? No matter how innovative the manufacturers are, they're just showing off their limited skills in front of me!"

"You said there's a brand new version I've never seen before? Dude, send me the link! I'll give you 50 V's!"

The memory abruptly ended, leaving only images of red heavy trucks rumbling past.

Speechless.

While playing on my phone and replying to a post on the street, I was hit by a lucky charm and transported to another world.

Shouldn't this kind of thing be just a vague urban legend?

Lin Luo looked down at her hands.

She is still herself, but she looks much younger.

At first, Lin Luo thought he had simply been reborn.

But when the concept of "magic," something that should only exist in fantasy, appeared in his memories, Lin Luo realized that he had not only been reborn, but had also been reborn into a parallel world with a fantastical element.

Today is the first day of school for the first-year high school students.

The past few hours in the morning, with all the paperwork and finding her class, have left Lin Luo quite exhausted. Fortunately, she's officially enrolled now.

At first, Lin Luo didn't want to go back to school, but unfortunately, high school offered free magic lessons!

Therefore, Lin Luo decided to re-enroll and become a... high school student who has turned eighteen.

In this world, every first-year high school student is eighteen years old without exception!

Because a person's physical body, soul, and mental strength are only considered to be fully developed after they turn eighteen, and only those who meet these conditions are qualified to learn magic.

Therefore, the school entry age and the curriculum for primary and junior high school students in this world have changed, and we cannot use common sense from the previous life as a reference.

The fact that everyone in this world possesses magical abilities is good news in Lin Luo's eyes.

The bad news is... even if you learn magic, you might not become a magician.

Most high school students remain magic apprentices until graduation. This demonstrates just how difficult the path of magic is.

"Shouldn't I be bound to a system or something at a time like this? Or is my cheat code some kind of heaven-defying magical talent?"

Just as Lin Luo was thinking this, something suddenly flashed in the lower right corner of his vision.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a white dot of light, only the size of a grain of rice.

"It's not a hallucination!"

Lin Luo steadied himself and tried to touch the tiny grain of light—

[Magical Girl Romance Game, Start!]

A beautiful, cute girl dating sim?

A corner... for wood?

It's so nice to have fun in this place!

If I could, I'd like to play visual novels for the rest of my life!

But... why hasn't the game finished starting yet?

Lin Luo waited for quite a while before a line of small characters slowly appeared—

[Game launch failed; conditions not met.]

Lin Luo's heart skipped a beat.

But he quickly calmed down.

Since it's a bishoujo game, then what are the so-called conditions...?

Is a beautiful girl going to make an appearance?

Yes!

That must be it!

Lin Luo lightly thumped her palm, then shifted her gaze to the classroom.

He arrived early; there are only a few students in the class at the moment.

There were absolutely no female classmates who met the standards of a beautiful girl.

Where is the proud and aloof class monitor?

Where is my beautiful, clueless deskmate?

Where is the yandere, beautiful older sister?

None of these are there... Does that mean...?

"The Northeast is my hometown♪... The suona plays a beautiful tune♪~"

The sudden singing interrupted Lin Luo's thoughts. Looking closely, he saw a tall and strong young man standing in front of him.

"Dude, is this seat next to you taken?"

"...No." Lin Luo shook his head, looking hesitant. "Uncle, are you saving a seat for the child?"

"Do you think it's possible that we are that child?"

"That was due to my poor judgment."

"Haha, if you don't mind, I'll sit here for now. The teacher will have to reassign seats later."

"I have no objection."

"I am Kuai, please give me your guidance."

"Hey bro, why aren't you saying anything? Are you a little socially awkward?"

Lin Luo looked up at Lao Kuai and said, "No, I don't think so. Maybe it's because he just started high school and isn't used to it yet."

"I see!" Old Kuai suddenly realized, and then chatted with Lin Luo casually.

Time passed quietly, and the students in the class took their seats one after another. Then, until the homeroom teacher appeared, Lin Luo did not find any classmates who met the standards of a "beautiful girl".

"This is terrible!"

"Our homeroom teacher is actually a bald man."

"I didn't see any pretty girls in the class..."

Lin Luo took a breath.

The fact that no suitable young woman has appeared yet means that the time is not right.

Maintain a positive mindset.

Keep a positive attitude!

This game can't stay unstarted forever, can it...? Lin Luo shuddered.

I don't want that kind of thing.

The homeroom teacher, standing on the podium, silently counted the students' heads. All forty students in Class Six were present, so it seemed he had arrived just in time.

"Dear students, please be quiet!"

The noisy classroom quickly quieted down. The bald homeroom teacher stood with his hands behind his back, a smile on his face: "My surname is Zhang, the Zhang of the bow and the Zhang of the long stroke, and my given name is Lin, the Lin of the forest. For the next three years, I will be the homeroom teacher of Class Six."

"Classmates, now that we're in high school, things are different from middle school and elementary school. We... will be learning magic!"

"I believe that when you received your admission notices, you had already learned how to use the magic connection method described in the notices."

"Teacher would like to ask, among all the students here, are there any students whose magic connection failed? Please raise your hand if you failed."

Lin Luo glanced around the classroom without showing any emotion; no one raised their hand.

This so-called magical connection is actually very simple. You only need to concentrate and use the "magic" that exists in your mental space to build a bridge of communication, and that will complete the magical connection.

"Now that you have all successfully established a magical connection, I'll teach you a little magic spell in advance—the Illumination spell!"

Illumination is one of the basic spells, and it is very easy to learn. In fact, it can be said that all basic spells are independent of talent and can be learned with a little effort.

The bald teacher seemed to have a lot of teaching experience. He explained the magic circuit of the Illumination spell very clearly, and the students in Class 6 quickly mastered the Illumination spell by following the teacher's instructions.

Lin Luo raised his index finger, and a radiating white light shone from the tip of his finger.

Includes π!

"Magic is truly incredible."

Lin Luo swung his arm, and the ball of white light at his fingertips moved along with it.

And just then, a game interface filled with pink hearts popped up in front of Lin Luo's eyes—

[Magical Girl Romance Game Startup Complete!]

"?"

What happened?

Lin Luo paused for a moment.

How did the game suddenly start up and finish?

"It feels like a really authentic visual novel; even the game interface is pink!"

This feeling...this taste...everything is just right.

But Lin Luo had a strange feeling, as if something was wrong.

As Lin Luo focused his gaze on the game interface, the pink main game screen changed, finally displaying several lines of clear text prompts—

[Target identified.]

[Currently recommended character: Illumination]

"?"

Haji, what are you doing?
