After get off work, I become a magical girl

——"After all, it's not actually a sower, is it."

Delphinium continued Nini's words, put one hand on her waist, and said calmly: "It's not just that he has never been a sower, but he has almost never received any education related to sowers. He is not the same as you sowers in essence."

"...Yes, you guessed it right."

Nini looked helpless: "Because it is actually a fairy in the garden. According to normal planning, it should be a 'gardener' in the future, not a sower."

"Really?"

Delphinium understood: "It seems to know a lot about fairies, but it knows nothing about most common sense of magical girls. It knows some things about kingdoms, but it knows nothing about the material world. There seems to be no other possibility except that it grew up in the garden."

"Yes."

Nini continued to explain: "Moko is actually not a bad person. Apart from being a little playful, he is a child who really wants to be recognized by others. If he can get recognition from others, he will be willing to learn and work hard. Please give him a chance."

"I wouldn't be so harsh on a goblin. I've seen a lot of unreliable goblins anyway."

Delphinium folded her arms, "But what is your relationship with it? Why did it run out of the garden just to come to Fangting City to find you?"

"My relationship with it? If I must say... Although there is no such kinship among fairies, we can be considered sisters, right?"

Nini looked thoughtful: "Our magic sources were all born in the garden and grew into spirituality, so we have been good partners since childhood."

"However, even among the elves, who generally mature late, Moko is the slowest to grow. When everyone else was able to walk out of the garden and work independently, it was still living a carefree life in the garden."

"Also, although I can't say much, Moko's position in the garden is... a little special. It is more special than the rest of us fairies, and the treatment it receives is also unique. The head fairy is also particularly indulgent towards it and never disciplines it strictly, so its personality is so... outspoken."

"When I grew up, I chose to leave the garden and receive training as a sower, but Moko and I have always been friends and we still often play together."

"Later, I was assigned by the kingdom to be a sower in Fangting City, so I said goodbye to it when I left and told it that if it missed me, it could come to Fangting City to see me..."

At this point, Nini's expression was complicated. "I just didn't expect that it was so capable of taking action. Since it couldn't contact me for two years, it actually chased me all the way to Fangting City. It didn't even tell the big goblin leader, and it almost sneaked out of the garden to find me."

"…But in a sense, because it did this, it saved you, right?"

Delphinium narrowed her eyes slightly. "It was because it came to Fangting City alone on impulse that so many things happened later. It caused trouble, but it also pushed everything to start."

"So, although it did many things wrong, it also did some things right by accident. Even if I were to reward it purely for its merits, I wouldn't be too harsh on it."

"Magical girls need to grow, fairies also need to grow, and the sower is also a member of the magical girl team. It is only natural for us to help each other."

She looked at Nini seriously: "Does what I said to you count as an explanation?"

"Yes."

Nini smiled as if she was relieved, and once again, she bowed to Delphinium: "If you can say that... then I feel relieved."

Chapter 172: Timeless practice

2023-06-10

In the crowded port of Fangting City, passengers and goods were moving in an orderly manner along their respective routes. In this prosperous scene, no one noticed a dark figure blending into the crowd without a trace.

Yuan was wearing her tattered Taoist robe, holding a package in her arms and carrying the fairy she called "Semi" on her shoulder, strolling aimlessly in the harbor.

"It doesn't really look like a small place, Fangting."

She spoke as if she was talking to herself: "I heard it was a small city in the southern part of Donghua Prefecture, but it is not much bigger than the big city I remember."

"How many years has it been since you last visited a city in the material world?"

Semi glanced at her and said, "Thirty years? Fifty years? It's not like human cities won't develop. After so many years, their scale will eventually expand."

"Hmm... I forgot."

Yuan squinted his eyes in confusion: "But it feels like it should be longer than you said. Indeed, I don't even know if my hometown still exists now."

"You, there must be a limit to your nerves."

Semi was somewhat helpless: "I'm beginning to worry whether you can survive normally in the city. Human cities are not that simple. Every once in a while, the lifestyle there will undergo earth-shaking changes. If you want to complete the task as smoothly as possible, necessary common sense is a must."

"You can rest assured about this. After all, I am also a human who was born and raised in the material world."

Yuan yawned subconsciously as he walked. "No matter how much I retreat from the world and practice cultivation, I spent my childhood in a human city. I will definitely have no problem with basic common sense."

"really?"

Sammy asked suspiciously, "You've been back in the material world for so many years, and you've almost never left the base, right? The material world now is very different from before."

"Don't worry, I know. Isn't this the port? A place where land ships dock. There were also such places in my time, but not like now..."

Yuan looked around and took in the shops in his sight. He paused for no apparent reason: "What kind of shops are these? They look magnificent. Are they money houses? Pawn shops?"

“It’s a store.”

Seeing that she could point to a fast food restaurant and describe it as "money shop", Semi felt his heart sink to the bottom: "It's a place to sell things. What you see now is a restaurant."

"It's a restaurant, right?"

"Yes, but also no."

Semi pushed Yuan's shoulder and said, "Anyway, hurry up and move on. Don't embarrass yourself here."

The man and the fairy continued to move forward, walked out of the port, and came to the city blocks. All they saw along the way were towering buildings and busy roads. Looking at the busy streets in front of them, Yuan fell into confusion again.

“…Are people so rich now?”

She was a little surprised and asked, "Can you all afford a car?"

"What kind of antique knowledge do you have? Cars are now the most commonly used means of transportation!" Semi couldn't help but raise his voice.

"What about tricycles and motorcycles? Have they been eliminated?"

"Isn't that natural?"

"Human cities are really changing with each passing day." Yuan touched his chin and said with some surprise.

"Why are you, a proper human, not as familiar with the city as a fairy like me?"

Sammy sighed: "I think I need to ask you one more question. What do you plan to do after coming to this city?"

"Anyway, let's find a place to take a shower, have a meal, and have a good sleep?" Yuan was still looking at the surrounding scenery.

"I agree with this, but then what? How are you going to get the Source of the Beast?"

"Hmm... Let's create an incident and lure all the magical girls here."

Yuan thought and said, "First, find a crowded place and find a way to get a remnant beast out. When the magic girls come to defeat the remnant beast, I will jump out and confront them. When Cornflower and the girl named Bai Jingxuan are here, I will defeat them and take away both the people and the source of the beast."

"Face-to-face confrontation?"

Sammy was shocked by her words: "Are you serious? Are you going to fight Cornflower so openly?"

"What else?" Yuan gave it a strange look, "I should have told you yesterday morning."

"I thought you were talking about a situation where we had to face off head-on. Who told you to just come and pick a fight?"

Sammy said angrily, "You were a flower card, but Cornflower is also a flower card. What if she has some incredible trump card and defeats you directly? How are you going to report back then?"

"Don't worry, I am not the same person now as I was back then."

Yuan folded his arms and said confidently, "To defeat my past self, I only need one hand now."

“I didn’t ask you that…”

Sammy's voice dropped. "I mean, your plan is really too crude. I don't think it's appropriate."

"Why would it be inappropriate? It's open and aboveboard, and I think it's good. Even my subordinates do this, and they have no objections." Yuan looked at Semi strangely.

"Your subordinates...ah, that is to say, when Sparrow was here, he was also..."

"Well, probably because he went to Cornflower's house and got defeated."

Yuan nodded: "Behave properly, be impartial, and live up to the standards of our generation. Even if you lose, it's honorable."

Sammy was completely silent.

It began to think about whether it was a wise choice to accept the assignment and complete the mission with this idiot who just stayed in the base every day practicing Taoism and martial arts.

It was just that this trip was a very important mission specially assigned by the leader White Wolf and the deputy leader Black Cat. Otherwise, they would not have sent a high-level fighter like Yuan to a small place like Fangting. Even if I wanted to refuse at that time, I was afraid there would be no room for it.

Thinking of this, it realized that its tangle seemed meaningless, and it felt relieved and spoke again: "Forget it, let's do as you say."

Pointing to the traffic not far away, Sammy continued: "Anyway, let's find a car and leave here. We have been standing on the roadside for too long and have been noticed."

After it said this, Yuan realized that she had attracted the attention of many passers-by just by stopping for a short while. Perhaps because she was wearing shabby clothes and her words were strange, many people thought she was a beggar.

"Ah, I thought I wouldn't notice anything if I dressed like this."

Yuan blinked innocently: "So are we leaving now? Where to?"

"How should I know where you should go? I have never been to Fangting City before."

Sammy was helpless: "Anyway, let's go to a more prosperous place to stay first, and stop a car on the roadside."

"Going for a ride?"

Yuan looked at the traffic not far away, her eyebrows slightly raised: "What if they are not going the same way as me?"

"I asked you to take a taxi..."

Sammy tried not to sound too excited: "Just look for those cars with lights on the roof that say 'Taxi'. If you see the sign in front that says 'Vacant', then you can..."

"Doesn't the red and blue light look more artistic? I'll go ask that one."

"Red and blue? Ah, idiot, don't go there, that's a police car! Come back here!"

It took a long time to stop Yuan. Semi said breathlessly, "Don't make things so dramatic for yourself! Just find the one with the light on the roof saying TAXI!"

"Oh."

Yuan nodded her head in agreement and waited on the roadside for a while before finally seeing the 'empty car' that Sammy had mentioned before. She reached out to stop it, walked forward, talked to the driver through the car window for a while, then stood up and watched the taxi drive away.

Then she turned and walked back to where she came from.

"The driver said he had to make a reservation via mobile phone because his car had been reserved by someone else."

Yuan looked thoughtful: "He also said that we came at a bad time. We shouldn't come during working hours. It's hard to get a taxi at this time."

"Let's not talk about the latter part, mobile phone reservation is indeed a method."

Sammy nodded, "So where's your phone?"

"I don't have a cell phone." Yuan tilted his head.
