Go to work, and then educate magical girls.

Chapter 94 Magical Girls Will Destroy the Calamity Beasts

Somewhere on the street, Ziwan was walking to school.

Her long, glossy black hair swayed gently with each step she took, and her equally dark pleated skirt covered her snow-white, translucent thighs, creating a striking contrast in color.

Because her father went to do something unknown, she had to go to school alone today.

Actually, there are two of them, plus Claw and her.

A round head peeked out from Ziyuan's schoolbag, looking around curiously.

There's a little twist to how Claw Claw ended up with its current home.

Jasmine is going shopping, Aster is going to school, and Claw can only choose to go with one of them.

After the discussion failed, they gave the choice to Claw, letting her decide for herself.

Claw looked left and right, and ultimately chose her older sister over her mother.

Moko was very indignant. She clearly had the advantage of being able to communicate with Claws, yet she still lost to Ziwan, who couldn't communicate with Claws. This was a huge blow to her.

"Paw, why didn't you choose me!"

Moko snatched the paws away and hugged them to her soft chest. "Look, isn't it more comfortable for me to hug her like this than for her?"

Ziwan looked at the claws that had sunk into the limp flesh, then looked down at her toes, remaining silent.

This innate talent cannot be compensated for.

She didn't compete with Mozi, because Claw had already chosen her.

Sure enough, after Claw made two squeaks, Mozi's expression fell. She snorted unconvinced and handed Claw to Ziyuan.

"It's just that you've spent more time with Claw than I have. I'm not inferior to someone as flat-chested as you."

Ziwan silently began searching for the pen knife that Tang Feng had given her.

"Chirp chirp."

Claws clung to Aster and began to play with her hair with their tentacles.

Although Mom is very soft and fragrant, she prefers her older sister. She makes fried fish slices for her and lulls her to sleep every night.

Moreover, the bad mother took the father away as soon as she arrived, and she hasn't slept with her father for the past few days.

Ziwan touched the smooth, round head of the claw, took it off her body, and put it in her schoolbag.

"Claw Claw, be good, just like before, you're not allowed to come out casually," Moko reminded her from the side like a mother.

A tentacle emerged from the seam of the backpack, tapped twice in the air, indicating that it had heard.

Back to the present, Claw Claw secretly peeked out of her backpack and looked outside.

The streets were quite lively in the morning, with office workers and students coming and going.

As soon as Claw saw someone approaching, it quickly hid.

But she couldn't resist the aroma from the roadside breakfast shop and started rummaging through her schoolbag.

Ziwan stopped in her tracks, held her schoolbag in front of her, and looked inside.

Claw looked pitiful as it gestured with its tentacles, pointing to a breakfast shop by the roadside.

Ziwan immediately understood. She quickly bought two large steamed buns for Claw Claw. As she handed them to her, she reminded her, "This is a schoolbag that Dad bought. Don't get it dirty, or you won't be allowed to eat in it anymore."

"Chirp chirp."

Claw Claw gestured very seriously to indicate that she would never get the backpack her father bought dirty.

Ziwan then put her schoolbag back on her back.

"Stop right there!"

A little boy's voice suddenly came from behind Ziwan.

Ziwan subconsciously turned around, and the next moment, a short figure carrying a schoolbag bumped into her thigh, then ran forward without looking back.

"Stop! Don't run away if you dare!" The little boy's voice came from behind again, and he ran past Ziwan.

Soon, he caught sight of the two children laughing and playing together.

It turned out they weren't calling her; it was just two elementary school students chasing and playing around.

Ziwan frowned slightly, not for any other reason than that the little boy had just touched her.

Although she was certain it was an unconscious reaction from the other person as they were about to fall, the feeling of having her skin touched by a man made her very uncomfortable.

This was a quirk of Aster's that she had never mentioned to anyone.

Since that incident, she has developed severe androphobia.

She feels nauseous whenever a man touches her body, even a young boy.

At best, it gives you goosebumps all over your body; at worst, it can make you want to kill someone.

Tang Feng was the only exception.

When I first touched her shoulder in the girls' restroom at her school, I didn't feel that nauseating urge.

It was from that time that she developed a slight curiosity about Tang Feng.

However, she never imagined that things would turn out this way between them.

Ziwan took out a tissue and wiped the spot that had just been touched.

Come to think of it, it's been a long time since she slept in her father's arms.

It's all that woman's fault.

Ziwan wondered if her symptoms would affect her future.

Because Tang Feng wanted her to become a magical girl.

She doesn't rule out becoming a magical girl.

But now she can't stand being touched by a man; she even felt a slight disgust towards that unintentional little boy just now.

Such a dark and narrow-minded mindset probably contradicts the hopeful and loving heart of a magical girl.

More importantly, she hasn't found a "reason" yet.

Ziwan sighed softly.

Even if she successfully awakens and becomes a magical girl, her relationship with Tang Feng may change after that.

She didn't want to be like Moko, whom she had seen in the bedroom that day, rendered unconscious, with white fluid slowly flowing from the place that had been filled.

Although she knew she couldn't escape this day, she still wished it would come later. She longed to be a beloved daughter, just like she was now.

Even if it's all fake, let her keep this beautiful dream going for a little longer.

Just then, Ziwan noticed that the two little boys who had just run past her had chased each other onto the road.

She heard adults shouting ahead.

Indeed, this behavior is far too dangerous; if at this moment…

A car sped past her from the side and behind, kicking up her long, black hair.

Aster's breathing paused for a moment, but she made no move.

It wasn't because the little boy had touched her that she held a grudge.

Instead, she realized in that instant that the time it took her to make her move was far too slow compared to the speed of the car.

She is not a magical girl, and many magical spells cannot be cast instantly.

In the time it took her to draw the magic circle, the little boy was knocked away several times.

Unlike the day she and Tang Feng first went shopping and faced the calamity beast, the main reason that prompted her to stand up was not the citizens in the square.

Instead, the other party had just given her a pen knife that she really liked as a gift.

Although she would help some people as much as she could, many situations were beyond her capabilities.

For example, that time the calamity beast.

For example, right now.

"Creak—!!!"

The piercing honking of horns and the screeching of brakes sounded, as if the deathly cries from hell had finally awakened the two little boys. Faced with the speeding car, they instinctively stood frozen in place, making no move.

The adults who had just screamed by the roadside also closed their eyes, unable to bear witnessing the bloody carnage that was about to unfold.

The car finally came to a stop.

The expected scene of blood splattering did not occur.

The car driver also felt that he had not hit any foreign objects.

After braking to a stop, the driver quickly opened the car door and got out, repeatedly apologizing, "I'm sorry, I was in a rush to get to work and didn't notice the little..."

The driver's pupils suddenly contracted.

What did he see?!

A bizarre creature appeared ahead, a strange sphere the size of a soccer ball floating in the air, its overall color a depressing dark gray, with a faint hint of sea blue.

Dense tentacles spread out from beneath what was either a head or a body sphere, flying through the air like the hair of a female ghost.

Two of the tentacles were wrapped around the waists of the two little boys from before.

The monster emitted terrifying and eerie squeaks, and a chilling crack appeared on the sphere, opening and closing as if to devour the two little boys.

The driver finally realized what was happening and let out a bloodcurdling scream, as if he had used all his strength to burst out from the deepest part of his throat.

"Monster!!!"

The driver scrambled back to the driver's seat, and after reversing for more than ten meters, the vehicle suddenly made a U-turn, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Other people on the roadside also realized what was happening at this point.

"It's a calamity beast!!!"

"The calamity beast has appeared again!!!"

"Run that way!"

Although the monster in the middle of the road was not large, its more than two-meter-long tentacles writhed like twisted earthworms, creating a terrifying sight.

Because it was rush hour and there were many pedestrians on the road, when someone shouted that, everyone scattered and fled in all directions, regardless of whether they understood the situation or not.

At the same time, the sounds of car horns, tires screeching against the ground, and shouts from the crowd filled the street.

Claw looked around at everything with a puzzled expression and scratched its head with its tentacles.

What's going on? Claw Claw was a little confused.

She just saved two children from being hit by a car and thought she would be praised by everyone, so why does everyone have this expression?

She glanced at the two little boys on the tentacles. One of them was already wailing, and his pants seemed to be wet from something. A pale yellow liquid dripped down his trouser leg and onto the road.

The other little boy didn't look as bad, but he was also trembling uncontrollably, his teeth chattering, "No, don't eat us..."

Claw was even more confused. Although she had a big appetite, she didn't eat children. She preferred dried fish.

She moved the two little boys a little closer and asked them a question out of curiosity.

"Squeak?"

But to the two little boys, the sound was like a death knell from hell, especially as the monster pulled them closer. They could clearly see the cracks on the sphere opening and closing, as if it were ready to devour them at any moment.

Finally, even the calmer little boy broke down, letting out a heart-wrenching cry.

"Help me—!!!"

From the moment Claw appeared, Ziwan was pushing against the flow of people forward. "Claw, put them down first, come with me..."

Ziwan's weak voice was drowned out by the noise of the crowd. Before she could even squeeze through, the situation changed.

A streak of azure light flashed, and the two tentacles wrapped around the little boy were neatly severed, with dark green blood spurting out from the cut.

The tentacles broke off, and the two little boys fell downwards. Before they hit the ground, a pale blue figure caught them.

A voice as light and melodious as heavenly music rang in their ears.

"It's all alright now, because the magical girl has arrived."

Shui Lan gently placed the two little boys on the ground and patted their heads.

"Don't cry, don't cry. You are all little men. Watch your sister destroy the monster."

The two little boys' eyes lit up with intense longing, their fear of being captured by the monster vanishing completely.

They were saved by a magical girl!

There's nothing more exciting than getting up close and personal with your idol, especially such a gentle and beautiful woman.

One of the little boys awkwardly covered his groin, not wanting the beautiful magical girl to see him wet his pants.

Another little boy seemed even more excited, clenching his little fist and waving it around, shouting, "Go, Magical Girl Sister!"

Shui Lan smiled slightly, and with a gentle flick of her wand, an invisible current carried the two little boys to the roadside.

Instead of immediately confronting the monster, she began evacuating the chaotic crowd.

Because she wasn't the only magical girl who came.

The tentacle was severed, and Claw cried out in pain. The next moment, two brand new tentacles grew out.

Before Claw Claw could make a move, a fiery energy sphere descended from the sky and enveloped her.

Chi Yan floated in the air, her black cloak fluttering in the wind, her fiery red battle armor dazzling, and her crimson twin ponytails dancing like flames.

"This time I finally made it in time!"

Chi Yan laughed happily. She and Shui Lan were having breakfast at a roadside breakfast shop when they saw the commotion and immediately transformed and rushed over.

Although this calamity beast looked weak, judging from its size it should only be C-rank, Crimson Flame was still very happy.

There were almost no warnings about the calamity beasts during this period, but the one or two calamity beasts that occasionally appeared were outside the warning range, which meant that every time they received a message and rushed there, the calamity beasts caused a certain degree of damage.

They happened to be at the scene immediately, and no one was injured or any buildings were damaged, which made the two kind-hearted magical girls very happy.

The flames on the monster gradually dissipated, revealing its original tentacle-like form, and it appeared to be unharmed.

Chi Yan frowned. Although she was a B-rank, she was only one step away from A-rank. She was still very resentful that Shui Lan, who was also a B-rank, had broken through first.

Right now, a calamity beast that looked to be only C-rank had actually withstood her attack, which made her even more annoyed.

Could it be that she, who was once the pillar of the team, is now so weak?

"Let me show you what I'm truly capable of!"

Crimson magic enveloped his entire body, and Chi Yan swung his crimson iron fist, lunging straight at the calamity beast that stood motionless in place.

After thinking about it, I'll try to avoid taking leave if possible and continue updating as usual.
