Magical girl? She got tricked into this!

"I can promise to teach you, but you can't learn it yet. Just start with the basics."

"Great!" Although it was a pity that she couldn't start learning right away, Ronya felt more excited.

Beth herself is an experienced person, and she has a set of methods on how to teach children to use magic. The first step of this method is to test while teaching.

The test here not only tests the students' magical talent, but also tests the total amount of magic power of the students.

Volume 7: Strange Journey to Another World: Chapter 92: Large Village

Beth was responsible for teaching Ronia magic, while Ando Meiko was lying on the roof of the carport, carving a magic circle that she had only completed a small part of, while observing the surrounding situation through the fishing radar.

The Fishing Radar covered an area of ​​one kilometer in radius, enveloping the entire snake-like caravan. It could clearly see everything around it, whether it was magic or magical beasts. Even without seeing with the eyes, it could detect any abnormality at the first time.

In fact, it has been two days since we came out of the rift valley. During this time, everyone was very excited about leaving the rift valley, and it took them a lot of effort to adapt to the fresh air around them.

The atmosphere in the Great Rift Valley was too depressing, with undead harassing people from time to time, torturing the mental state of those on the road at all times.

"Is it like this?" Having just watched Beth perform the basic fire magic of ignition, Ronia followed suit and stretched out her finger. "Ignition?"

As soon as she finished speaking, magic power gathered at her fingertips, and a flame burned and flickered on the tip of her index finger, as small as the flame from a lighter.

The essence of this basic magic is to light a bonfire, so although the flame is small, it is a fuse, and just having it is enough.

"No chanting magic?" Beth was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses and murmured softly.

Ronia didn't hear Beth's voice, but she could read her mind and naturally understood what she was saying. She asked curiously, "Sister Beth, what is chantless magic?"

"It's a general term for magic that can be cast directly without the chanting part." Beth explained while looking at the flame in Ronia's hand.

"Can Sister Beth do it too?"

Beth shook her head and said, "This is an innate talent. I can't do it, but Yazi can."

"Sister Meizi is really amazing. It seems like she can do anything."

"Well, she is strong in fighting, smart, and not afraid of difficulties and obstacles. She is really amazing." When talking about Ando Meiko, Beth's eyes lit up and she was full of energy, not sparing her praise at all.

Ando Meiko's face turned red, and she thought to herself: Hey, when you guys are praising me, have you ever considered that there's only a wall between you and me, the person involved?

Suddenly, an artificial fence slowly entered Ando Meiko's radar. She patted her cheek, put away all her things, stood up and looked into the distance.

The dry weeds around here grew vigorously, thus obscuring many things in front, but standing on the roof of the car, one could barely see that there was a fairly large village a few hundred meters away.

"This must be the village Melinda was talking about."

Hearing the noise coming from the carriage, the two girls, one big and one small, stopped what they were doing at the same time. They stuck their heads out of the window and saw that Ando Meiko had stood up, so they gave her a questioning look.

"There is a village ahead, we should be there soon." As soon as the words fell, the caravan had already driven out of the hay and arrived at a place with a wide view.

Just as Ando Meiko said, there was indeed a small village ahead, and it seemed to be quite large. Although each house was built relatively scattered, there were hundreds of them, large and small.

In this world, an ordinary village has only about twenty houses and dozens of people. They live in small groups in the wild mountains and wilderness, and are self-sufficient. They rarely accept outsiders into the village.

It's like the first village that Meiko Ando arrived at after rescuing Beth and leaving the forest.

There are hundreds of houses here. Excluding other uses, there are at least dozens of people here, which is about two to three hundred people.

A village of this size can be considered a large village.

There weren't many people coming and going in the village, but the women who were working couldn't help but stop what they were doing when they saw the arrival of such a large dragon cart, and cast curious and puzzled glances at the caravan.

After a while, the caravan stopped at the village gate but did not enter. Melinda got off the dragon cart and walked past it with her guards. She asked an old woman, "Old woman, where is your village chief?"

The old woman who was stopped by Melinda looked up at her and saw that the girl was well-dressed, had delicate features, and was pretty but polite and amiable. She immediately felt a lot of favor towards her.

"Little girl, if you want to find that old man, you'll have to wait. He left the village this morning with a group of guys to take care of something."

Melinda nodded and then continued to ask: "When will he come back, old lady?"

"I don't know, but it's usually before sunset. I think you're from a caravan. You must be tired after all this travel. Why don't you come home with me, sit down, have some tea, and have a good rest?"

"No," Melinda said, declining. "I've come here to discuss something important with the village chief. Since he's not here, we'll just wait outside."

Seeing that the girl had rejected her kind invitation, the old woman did not force it: "Well, then you just wait. I will tell him about your situation when he comes back."

"Thank you, old lady."

After the communication, Melinda left the village. She did not come to Ando Meiko to narrate the story, but discussed the next steps with her subordinates and waited quietly for a while.

As the sun sets, the azure sky gradually turns orange, and bright clouds hang overhead, as if they are choosing to burn themselves for a moment of brilliance.

An old man in his seventies walked out of the village with a few strong young men and came to greet the caravan leader Melinda.

"Hello, Miss Melinda. I'm Bowen, the village chief. I heard you came to the entrance of my village and wanted to discuss something with me. What's your business?"

The village chief spoke so concisely and got straight to the point without any dragging his words. He must be a decisive person.

Melinda was a businesswoman who had a deep understanding of human nature and the ups and downs of life. From Bowen's short sentence, she realized that this man must be a man who would act decisively.

It is best not to beat around the bush with such a straightforward person, otherwise it will only make others wary.

"It's like this. We originally wanted to go to the Theocracy through the Great Rift Valley, but we were attacked by the Undead along the way and lost a lot of food. So we came to your village this time to exchange our goods for some of your food. What do you think, Village Chief Bowen?"

Melinda also explained the purpose and needs of her experience in a brief sentence.

Volume 7: Strange Journey to Another World: Chapter 93: Party

After hearing Melinda's words, Village Chief Bowen fell into deep thought. However, he didn't make a decision immediately. Instead, he suggested to Melinda, "You've come a long way. Why don't you come back to the village with me and rest for a while?"

The fact that the village chief did not reject the proposal immediately meant that the proposal to exchange for food was feasible, but the fact that he did not agree immediately meant that they had some conditions.

So Melinda did not agree immediately. Instead, she showed hesitation and consideration. Not only did she tell Bowen that she understood what he meant, but she also showed that she was not absolutely sure and suggested that the village chief should be careful.

One is the president of a branch of a large chamber of commerce, and the other is the head of a village. In just a few words, these two people have done a lot of superficial work, and only a few people can understand the game contained therein.

Of course, Meiko Anten was not among them. Her brain was not smart enough to do that. All she saw was that the two of them finished talking in a few words and then agreed to go into the village to rest.

In the evening, the village chief held a banquet to welcome everyone. The food on the table was very rich, including both meat and vegetables. The other people in the caravan felt that the people in this village were simple and hospitable, but Melinda frowned imperceptibly.

Bowen's purpose of holding a banquet was very clear, which was to tell them that the village was not short of food resources, but it was also to pave the way for the request they would make next.

Once the caravan enjoyed these delicacies, it would be difficult to refuse the conditions proposed by the other party, not to mention that she simply could not refuse this dinner.

Thinking of this, Melinda's eyes flickered leisurely in the light of the fire.

She had already decided in her mind that food must be exchanged, but if the other party's conditions were too harsh, she would never agree. At worst, she would take a few guards with her and live a hunting life to capture the surrounding monsters and beasts to survive this month.

With Melinda's permission, the caravan members cheered and enjoyed tonight's party to the fullest, tasting the various delicacies prepared by the village. They were already starving after saving for several days.

In the shadows beneath a house's eaves, a sturdy young man asked the village chief beside him in confusion, "Village chief, how can you be sure they will agree? We're having a grand banquet here, and if they refuse, wouldn't that be a huge loss?"

Village Chief Bowen didn't turn his head to look at him, his gaze still fixed on Melinda, who was deep in thought. After waiting for a moment, he slowly spoke, "You know what the environment is like inside the Great Rift Valley. The fact that they were able to cross this trade route proves that they must be capable. Moreover, our conditions are not too difficult for them. The difficulty is just..."

Having said that, Bowen stopped talking. A smile appeared on his face. He left the wall he was leaning against, raised the cup in his hand and walked towards the caravan members around the campfire.

"Everyone must be tired after traveling so far. This dinner is a decision made by everyone in our village after consultation. Don't worry about anything, just eat and drink to your heart's content."

The village chief's speech was echoed and cheered by all the caravan members. The same was true for Anten Meiko. She had been in this caravan for a month and no longer maintained her original polite image. She took Ronia and Beth to eat and drink to her heart's content.

The prepared food was quickly eaten up. After eating and drinking, everyone danced around the fire with the hospitable villagers. The dinner lasted until late at night and ended when the bonfire was extinguished.

Originally, Bowen was very enthusiastic about providing houses for the caravan, but his kindness was directly rejected by Melinda. After packing up their things and saying goodbye to the villagers, the caravan members returned to their dragon carts, spread out their bedding and fell asleep on the spot.

After a depressing journey that lasted for more than a month, Ronia was finally released tonight. She played to her heart's content for a long time, and finally fell asleep comfortably in Anten Meiko's arms due to exhaustion.

After putting the little princess back into the carriage, Meiko Anten and Beth lay on the roof of the carriage together. The carriage was surrounded by a wall formed by a glass shield, and only the roof was open. The two girls rested their heads on their arms and admired the beautiful starry sky.

The two of them snuggled together for a long time, and Beth suddenly spoke slowly: "Something big might happen tomorrow."

"why?"

"Didn't you notice something unusual about the communication between Melinda and Bowen?"

Meiko Anten tried to recall, but couldn't think of anything wrong. It just sounded like some polite words, not to mention that others had treated everyone in their caravan to a feast.

After a moment's thought, Beth told Anten Meiko her guess: "There's something else in their words. I guess there must be some additional conditions attached in exchange for the food. Melinda was afraid the conditions were too harsh, but she didn't want to give up, so she agreed to let the village chief stay for one night for the banquet."

"I see." An Teng Meizi suddenly understood and praised, "Beth, you are really smart. I couldn't see anything at all."

Beth's pretty face immediately turned red after hearing such praise. She quickly shook her head and said, "I, I'm not smart. I'm just more thoughtful than others."

"That's smart, isn't it? Okay, don't be so modest. Excessive modesty is just pride."

"Okay..." Beth nodded in agreement, but she seemed to have thought of something and continued, "Yezi, if their conditions involve us, what should we do?"

"If it involves us, there is only one possibility, that is, our combat power is needed. We will see the situation at that time. If it is not too difficult, it is not impossible to help a little."

"Well, I listen to you."

"You don't have to do anything. Just help me take good care of Ronia. I will resolve this as soon as possible and take you to the Theocracy."

"Okay." Although Beth was reluctant, she still agreed.

"Since you guessed there might be some action tomorrow, go to bed early."

"Well, goodnight, Meizi."

"Goodnight Beth."

The two exchanged their final greetings and closed their eyes, while Meiko Anten also controlled her magic power to close the skylight of the Glass Shield.

For some reason, she had a vaguely uncomfortable feeling in her heart. She couldn't tell whether this feeling was good or bad. Perhaps, as Beth said, it was related to tomorrow's events.

Anyway, we will know the outcome tomorrow.

Volume 7: Strange Journey to Another World: Chapter 94: Change

For three months, a full three months, Sakura Fuko and her group helped the United Territory to resist the attacks of the three foreign regions.

Thanks to the transformation by the Dryads, the defense of the trees in the outer areas of the united territory has been greatly improved. Even a giant bear several meters tall cannot destroy their steel-hard skin through brute force.

The attacks of the Warcraft continued day and night, leaving almost no time for rest for the people in the united territory. But even so, the leaders of the three major races still managed to squeeze water out of the dry sponge.

If there is no time to rest, then create time. How to create time? Put the existing combat power into battle and rest in batches.

Sakura Fuko had some realization three months ago. During her emotional outburst, she realized the second use of "bubble", which was to spread the healing focused on one person through the manipulation of magic power, making it a wide-area healing magic.

She called this magic "Blue Rain", and within the coverage area of ​​the blue rain, any creature accepted by Sakura Fuko would enjoy the treatment of the blue light rain, which could quickly heal wounds while also dispelling fatigue to a certain extent and restoring physical strength and vitality.

This level of treatment is not as thorough and efficient as the magic bubble, but this is a battlefield, and the effect of Blue Rain is undoubtedly more suitable for the current situation. What's more, the consumption of mana by Blue Rain is far lower than that of the bubble.

"Everyone, gather around me." The soldiers who had just retired from their posts sat down around Sakura Fuko. Under the cover of the blue halo, drops of magic power rained down and penetrated into their bodies. The comfortable feeling spread throughout their bodies, making them hum with pleasure.

If she really can't hold on, the Elf Queen will transform into a green barrier to block all damage for the united territory in exchange for breathing time.

They managed to barely survive in this way, but they didn't expect that they would persist for three whole months. Fortunately, the fairy tribe chose a good location, and the water and food resources in the joint territory were abundant. Otherwise, they would have starved to death before they were confiscated and flooded.

"Okay, you guys go and rest first." Sakura Fuko retracted her magic and said to the warriors.

The treatment does not need to be complete, because the group of warriors who have just been replaced will go to the side to rest temporarily, and there is no need for her to waste such precious magic power.

The battlefield is the place that can best hone people. The fighting that lasted for several months made Sakura Fuko become much more resolute invisibly. Experiencing so many life-and-death battles every day, as a magical girl, she is the one who grows the fastest and most obviously among all people.

It is worth mentioning that the person who was knocked unconscious by Vita and transported back by Nanako was Yuti's biological father, Mortis, who cut off their retreat and attacked them. He woke up a week after being brought back.

However, he had no memory of entering the swamp area, and he had forgotten many things. The only things he remembered were his own tribe and his daughter.

After learning from Ivy that he had attacked Youti and almost killed her, Mortis burst into tears and directly entrusted the entire tree spirit clan to Ivy.

Ivy is no longer the chief elder who manages the tree spirits on behalf of Mortis, but has become the head of the tree spirits. This change is too dramatic.

In order to make up for his mistakes, with the strong request and participation of Motis, the upgrading and transformation of the united territory went smoothly, and it was soon transformed into an indestructible steel fortress.

With this action, the defensive pressure on everyone in the joint territory was suddenly reduced a lot, and they finally had a short and controllable rest time.

On the other hand, the ones who contributed the most in this battle were undoubtedly the team's main attackers, Vita and Nanako, especially Nanako. Every time she transformed into a girl, she would rush into the group of monsters like a Valkyrie, stirring up the situation and killing all around.

Originally, there were many people in the United Territory who were afraid and terrified of her fighting power, but over time, she has become the object of everyone's admiration and a hero in their hearts.

With Nanako's active performance, Vita no longer occupied the forefront, but retreated to the back and used the magic materials stripped from the dead monsters to carve various magic circles.

There are offensive, trap, defensive, and auxiliary ones. It can be said that every aspect is involved. The magic circle that helped Sakura Fuko recover her magic power was her work. If not for this, the united territory would have been completely submerged by the vast tide of beasts.

As for the fairies, they are not suitable for fighting, but they are born and raised as nature's darlings and have unimaginable abilities in cultivating plants, so they are responsible for the cultivation and management of food and resources within the territory.

Such a victory is the result of the efforts of all parties. No one in the entire united territory is idle. They all play their respective roles. Without any side, the current situation would not be so good.

If this assembly line can continue, after a period of time, when the combat effectiveness of the three outer realms is completely exhausted, they will be able to obtain peace and tranquility.

But no one would think that things are so simple, because the battle has reached this point, and everyone can guess that there must be a mastermind behind the three outer realms.

In this case, it is impossible for it to watch its troops being depleted without doing anything. It must be planning something in secret.
