Why are the magical girls in your area male?

"What the hell?"

Yuan Qing quickly adjusted his posture in mid-air, landed steadily, and immediately looked up.

A barely perceptible ripple spread through the air before quietly dissipating.

I didn't feel any magical power from the barrier above my head; the thing I bumped into just appeared out of nowhere.

It seems it's not a barrier, but someone playing a prank!

who can that be?

At this hour, in this place, the only person capable of playing a prank on me is probably that guy...

"Ugh, that childish little brat."

Well, I just came out of the Moon Etching, and I do need to take a walk and appreciate the greenery to relax and unwind.

Play with her for a while, just to change her mood.

But that's all talk. I've never been through a maze before, and I don't know if I can find my way out according to the right-hand rule in the book.

Yuan Qing placed his right hand on the "wall" made of green plants on one side and walked forward along the path paved with smooth limestone slabs.

Moonlight filtered through the sparse branches and leaves, casting dappled shadows, while the chirping of insects all around added to the tranquility.

"I really don't know what these rich people are thinking, they always like to do these fancy things."

"If you have extra money, you can give it to people in need!"

"Damn it."

As Yuan Qing walked, he mentally complained.

After walking for about a few minutes, the faint sound of water gradually came from ahead.

After passing through an exquisite cast-iron archway covered in ivy, a bright and open space suddenly appeared before me.

Before me is a neat and symmetrical oval pool.

The pool is made of pure white marble, with intricate patterns carved along its edges for decoration.

In the center of the pool stands an elegant marble statue of a young girl holding a water bottle.

Clear water is gushing out of the bottle and falling into the pool below, making a pleasant tinkling sound.

The pond water was crystal clear, and several colorful koi carp swam leisurely under the water lily leaves.

But what caught the most attention was the petite figure by the pool.

She was wearing a moon-white silk nightgown, barefoot, sitting on the smooth marble edge of the pool.

A cascade of pure white hair, as white as moonlight, draped casually behind her, winding like a trail of snow under the moonlight.

She leaned forward slightly, her small, delicate feet immersed in the cool pool water.

Those snow-white jade feet, as if carved from white jade, swayed gently in the clear water.

Her ankles were slender and delicate, and her toes were round and cute.

Moonlight spilled onto the water, creating shimmering ripples that reflected her stunningly beautiful profile.

At the same time, it also gilded those jade feet immersed in the water with a hazy silver glow.

The water rippled, and several bold koi fish swam over as if attracted, gently touching her toes, causing her to curl up slightly.

Those lips, which were always tightly pressed together, seemed to carry a faint, almost imperceptible smile.

Yuan Qing paused involuntarily.

He never hesitated to praise beautiful things.

But seeing this scene where people and the moon complement each other perfectly, he couldn't think of any words of praise that could perfectly capture it.

He abandoned the idea of ​​greeting them, afraid that making a sound would disturb this picturesque scene.

As if sensing his gaze, Shiori Shiomi turned her head slightly, her gentle and calm eyes falling on him.

Her eyes reflected the light of water and moonlight, and perhaps for this reason, even her usually sharp red eyes appeared much softer.

"coming?"

Her lips parted slightly, and a clear, melodious voice rang out.

When she spoke, Yuan Qing couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Compared to his usual cold voice, his tone just now was noticeably less distant.

And most importantly, Shiori Shiomi maintained a smile on her face!

That perpetually icy face, how could it possibly smile for so long?

Is she mentally ill?

"Ah."

Yuan Qing nodded, walked to her side, and looking at her jade-like feet soaking in the pool, surrounded by fish, he asked without thinking:

Are you fishing?

"..."

Shiori Shiomi's smile froze for a brief moment.

Fortunately, she was in a good mood and didn't take the vulgar joke to heart.

She patted the marble slab beside her and said, "Sit down."

"..."

Yuan Qing's face showed suspicion.

What's going on? Why is this guy suddenly as gentle as water today?

As far as I know, a beautiful woman who is cunning and has a deep mind will only use her beauty to her advantage when she needs something from someone or wants to harm someone.

She wouldn't be trying to harm me, would she...?

"What are you still standing there for?" Shiori Shiomi urged again.

Seeing Yuan Qing's wary expression, she couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing:

"Sit down. There are no landmines or hidden explosive tags. And no one will come up to you and ask, 'Look familiar?' as soon as you sit down, and then try to recruit you into the Grammer Ironclad to fight for Super-Earth."

"hiss!!"

Yuan Qing couldn't help but gasp.

Something is wrong!

Something is wrong, even nine out of ten!

How could my student council president possibly understand these outrageous memes?

He immediately questioned, "...How could you tell such a lame joke? You're definitely not Shiori Shiomi!"

"That wretched shadow beast monster! How dare it impersonate my guild leader! Reveal your true form right now!!"

Shiori Shiomi just smiled, completely unmoved.

Yuan Qing couldn't help but pinch his thigh. Fortunately, the pain reminded him that what was happening in front of him was indeed real.

But, little president, please stop laughing. The little president I know has never laughed for this long before. It's giving me a pang of the "happy bean effect."

Seeing that Yuanqing was still standing there, Shiori didn't say anything more.

She continued to wiggle her feet slightly, causing the fish to wobble.

Yuan Qing, however, restrained himself from looking at it.

First of all, he is not a foot fetishist and has no fantasies about beautiful feet.

But to be fair, the president's foot shape is indeed perfect, you know?

Exquisite and petite, with fair and delicate skin.

Especially the barely visible arch of the foot and the cool color under the moonlight, wet and delicate after being soaked with water, are quite beautiful.

However, he is not a foot fetishist.

If you lift her up with your hand, she will definitely be shy and tense her toes. When she is held in your hand, she will want to struggle but is afraid of hurting you, so she can only kick lightly to break free from your palm, which is much warmer than her body temperature.

When you stroke her ankle, she will tremble, and her curled toes will gradually relax under the touch.

But after all, he's not a football fanatic.

“Yuan Qing”.

"Ok?"

Shiori Shiomi's eyes narrowed slightly, and a slightly playful smile curved her lips: "Are my feet pretty?"

"I didn't watch it." Yuan Qing said with a straight face, making up a lie.

"You're not a foot fetishist, are you?"

"No."

"Then why did you stare at it for so long?"

"I'm watching you fish, not looking at your feet."

"Want to lick it?"

"Thank you for the payment... oh?"

"If you beg me now, I might agree."

"?"

Yuan Qing was stunned for a full second before he reacted.

Seeing the other person's arrogant, childlike chuckle, he couldn't help but retort:

"Shiori Shiomi, have you become so bored that you have to tease me to get any pleasure?"

"What does it matter? Aren't idiots meant to be amused and teased?"

"?"

I have a phrase that Liu Haizhu uses, but I'm not sure if I should say it.

Yuan Qing suppressed the urge to give the middle finger and retorted, "I'm worried you'll poison the fish!"

Such a beautifully patterned koi fish must be quite expensive. It would be such a shame if you poisoned it.

"Oh?" Shiori Shiomi raised an eyebrow, her delicate foot gently swaying in the water, creating ripples. "You mean the fish will be poisoned by my foot?"

"Why not?"

"How can you be so sure my feet are poisonous? Have you tasted them? Do you know what they taste like?"

"..."

Yuan Qing couldn't help but twitch his lips.

Clearly, this sharp-tongued brat is having a blast.

I don't think she drank any alcohol.

He composed himself and continued his rebuttal: "Even if I haven't tasted it, with your sarcastic and venomous tongue, I can tell that your feet are probably sore even in your toes."

I'm afraid the fish in the pond will be belly-up after you soak in that water. Don't blame me if you don't warn me then.

“I shower three times a day, and my feet are very clean. But you are covered in sweat and have a strange smell that you haven’t had time to wash off since you were just etched out of the moon.”

Stay away from me, don't defile my pool.

Upon hearing her say that, Yuan Qing subconsciously sniffed himself.

Thankfully, although I was sweating, I didn't have the strange smell the other person described.

He immediately protested, "Hey, that's a personal attack and defamation!"

"State the facts."

Shiori Shiomi replied indifferently, no longer looking at him, her gaze returning to the fish swimming in the water, her jade feet gently stirring the surface.

The bickering has temporarily come to an end.
