Go to work, and then educate magical girls.

Chapter 38 Too Early

"Teacher, it seems I can't transform again."

Tang Feng, of course, did not believe Sheng Xue's words.

Because he had been observing Aster during this time, he had a clear understanding of the magical girl squad's movements.

During this period, Seiyuki also served as the main fighter, so there was no situation where he could not transform without her.

Is this... another time you want to act recklessly?

As a psychologist at the Magic Academy, it was his duty to help them resolve their inner conflicts, and Tang Feng decided to help without hesitation.

then……

"Let me see your color today, Holy Snow," Tang Feng said.

. . . . . .

. . . . . .

Tang Feng then realized that Sheng Xue had come prepared this time.

"Saint Snow, what you're doing has gone beyond the scope of 'willfulness' and has reached the level of 'seduction'."

Staring at her like that by Tang Feng, Sheng Xue's beautiful face flushed with an alluring blush. She briefly closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she took a step forward.

"I came here secretly; Jinju doesn't know."

"Huh? What does this have to do with her?"

"I met with you behind her back and did things like this. Have I become a really bad girl now?"

Tang Feng smiled nonchalantly, "I've said before that I like whatever kind of Holy Snow it is."

He paused for a moment. "Besides, what does your coming to me have to do with Jinju? Why would you think that way? Isn't it perfectly natural for you to come to me when you're in trouble?"

"But……"

Shengxue hesitated. Despite what Tang Feng said, she still felt a strange sense of immorality about secretly doing such a thing with Tang Feng behind her best friend's back.

Tang Feng didn't rush to help. He wanted to help the girl resolve her inner conflict, otherwise, harboring such a twisted mentality would be detrimental to the magical girl's growth.

If left unchecked, this idea might plant a seed in the girl's heart, which will slowly take root and sprout over time, eventually growing into a towering tree.

By then, they won't be far from turning to the dark side, and the two best friends may become enemies, turning against each other with swords drawn.

This is the worst possible outcome, and although the possibility is very small, Tang Feng wants to completely eliminate this possibility.

They are all his wings, all his favorite magical girls, how can there be disharmony among them?

Tang Feng spoke slowly with a warm smile.

"Saint Snow, has Jinju apologized to you?"

"But I should be the one apologizing for that. I didn't know Jinju liked you so much, and I said a lot of things I shouldn't have in front of her."

"Don't you like me too?"

Sheng Xue was once again stunned by Tang Feng's direct attack, and subconsciously replied, "Ah, yes, yes."

"Why should there be a hierarchy when it's the same feeling of liking someone? Why can she do it openly and honestly, while you're so humble?"

"She used your friendship as leverage to force you to give up your feelings for her. That was her mistake, and that's why she apologized to you."

"Are you being so humble because you don't want to ruin your friendship? Shengxue, this just shows that you are a good child who values ​​relationships."

Upon hearing Tang Feng's words of encouragement, Sheng Xue's eyes widened, her clear, bright eyes sparkling. "You mean, I'm not a bad child, but a good child?"

"In my heart, Shengxue has always been a good child. Although she can be willful at times, I am an adult and I will tolerate all her willfulness."

Tang Feng paused for a moment, "Besides, when Jinju apologized to you, she should have said that she wouldn't interfere with your feelings anymore, right?"

"Since she doesn't mind, and I don't mind, then why do you mind, Shengxue?"

"Huh?" Sheng Xue was a little confused by Tang Feng's words. She hesitated for a moment before asking, "Then, so I can like him openly now?"

"This isn't some kind of secret, but for other reasons, it's best not to let anyone other than Jinju know."

"So from now on, this will be a secret shared by the three of us?"

Tang Feng nodded, feeling that it was about time. "Now that you've figured it out, can you transform, Saint Snow?"

Shengxue hesitated for a moment, then slowly lowered the hand that had been holding up her skirt.

Just when Tang Feng thought she was about to leave, Sheng Xue suddenly appeared in front of him in a flash.

The skirt slowly opened, covering Tang Feng's head.

"Although I can transform now, I still need some help to replenish my magic power..." came the girl's shy and soft voice.

Since the other party had put it that way, Tang Feng naturally wouldn't refuse.

. . . . . .

. . . . . .

.

An Jinju noticed Sheng Xue's subtle movements.

Her legs were unconsciously pressed together, her skirt was deliberately pulled down, her face had a healthy rosy glow, and a few strands of hair were slightly damp on her forehead.

She was very familiar with this because she had experienced this situation many times.

An Jinju sighed softly to herself.

She couldn't stop anything. From an outsider's perspective, they were in love, and at most, she could only stand on the moral high ground and criticize them under certain pretexts.

But since strange people don't have to abide by human morality, she could only hope that Tang Feng wouldn't go too far and maintain a seemingly upright and gentlemanly image in front of others.

She has tried her best, but it has not changed anything and has only made things worse.

Tang Feng is the kind of person who gets more excited the more you try to stop him or the more he resists.

This feeling of having to place her hopes on others and being powerless to do anything made her very uncomfortable.

I want to become stronger...

Even stronger than that weirdo!

An Jinju's expression shifted. She vaguely remembered Tang Feng telling her that he would do his best to help magical girls become stronger.

She is not ashamed to use the power of strange people; her ultimate goal is to protect those she wants to protect. As long as this belief is firm enough, she will never lose her way.

Magical Girl Nishiki, transform!

Tang Feng looked at the girl in front of him, who exuded a sharp aura and stood straight, like a sharp spear that could be thrust out at any moment, and couldn't help but glance at her slightly.

"Little Jinju, what are you planning to do this time? Before you act, think about the consequences of the previous times."

Jinju shook her head. "I'm not here for pointless battles. I want to become stronger. Can you teach me how?"

Tang Feng scoffed, "What's the use of getting stronger? Even I can't do many things."

"In order to protect, at least when facing a powerful opponent like you, we won't be completely powerless to fight back."

"You want to rebel against me?"

"I wouldn't dare." Jinju lowered her head slightly. "If I possessed this power, I would definitely use it to fight for my master."

"Even though I know it's fake, I'm still quite happy to hear it." Tang Feng waved his hand, and an invisible membrane slowly spread out, enveloping the entire Demon Academy.

He was prepared to give the other party a serious talking-to.

He wouldn't hesitate to let magical girls become stronger; the stronger the magical girl, the more flavorful she would be.

Jinju looked up at the transparent membrane, her eyes filled with confusion.

"I asked my sister, and she said that a domain isn't like that. It's extremely aggressive and incompatible. Why does your domain seem harmless, just a barrier that blocks perception?"

"I didn't actually open up the domain; this is just a thin veil I separated from it."

In a flash, Tang Feng led Jinju to the playground and pointed to the girls exercising on the lawn.

"Although they are contained within the curtain, they cannot observe us. Whether we are truly included in my domain is just a matter of a single thought."

Tang Feng condensed a beam of magical energy and flicked it towards one of the girls.

Jinju held her breath as she watched the magical beam, capable of easily killing any mage, shoot towards the girl; her heart was in her throat.

Tang Feng gestured for her to be quiet. The magic ray passed through the girl as if the light were shining through glass, and there was no blood splattering as expected.

Jinju breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Tang Feng explained, "Although those girls are standing on the same playground as us, it's actually like we're in two different dimensions. Whatever we do doesn't affect each other."

He paused for a moment, then said, "However, if I wanted to, I could pull the person inside the curtain into this dimension with a single thought, and that attack would then truly take effect."

Jinju exclaimed in surprise, "Wouldn't that be useful for a sneak attack? You can condense an extremely powerful attack here, and then withdraw your domain or pull the opponent in just before contact, leaving them no time to react."

Tang Feng shook his head. "What a ridiculous idea. Once you bring the other party into your territory, you're already invincible. Why bother with all that? I only separated a harmless barrier for the sake of convenience. Others can't do that."

Jinju caught the key information and couldn't help but ask, "Is there really such a huge difference in their domains?"

"To give a simple example, if two magical girls are both S-rank, one has completely mastered a domain and the other has not, then the battle will be a one-sided crushing defeat. Once one side opens its domain and encompasses the other, the battle will end in an instant."

Jinju asked incredulously, "Is it really that exaggerated?"

"However, the domain is not invincible. Its consumption is extremely high. Each time it is activated, it overdraws the power of the Heart Gem. It is unknown when it will be activated again."

"Moreover, it has weaknesses."

Tang Feng waved his hand, not continuing, "These things are too far away for you. You should focus on raising your magic level to A-rank first."

"I will try my best."

Jinju opened her hand, and a magnificent wand appeared out of thin air in her palm. She gripped it tightly, and a massive torrent of magic power swirled around her, her aura rising steadily.

She could feel that with each battle, her magic power increased slightly. Although she had reached the threshold of A-rank, there was still a long way to go before she could take that step.

"Very good." Tang Feng noticed the girl's resolute heart and rising momentum, and beckoned with his finger.

"Go all out against me. You won't be punished afterward. Let me see your limits."

Jinju waved her hand, and her wand transformed into an incomparably sharp magical spear. She herself became the sharp spearhead, shooting towards Tang Feng with an aura that could break through all obstacles.

.

Not long after, Jinju collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

It wasn't the panting that often came from his hands, but rather the panting that came from her complete exhaustion of magic.

Tang Feng did not make a single move against her during this time; he only focused on deflecting and dodging her attacks.

Jinju knew that even if the attack hit the other party, they would not be harmed; he was just demonstrating it to her.

It was as if he were a true guide, patiently teaching her.

A faint sense of gratitude rose in Jinju's heart, but she quickly chased it away. She struggled to prop herself up with the spear and waited for Tang Feng's evaluation.

Tang Feng stood still and gave his objective evaluation.

"Even by my critical standards, you're already quite good among B-grade students."

Upon hearing the other person's evaluation, Jinju finally showed a genuine smile.

Her efforts over this period of time have not been in vain.

Jinju quickly suppressed her smile. "What can I do to become stronger?"
