Why are the magical girls in your area male?

Volume 1: Chapter 62 My Spellcasting Material is Male?!

In Japan, the three major organizations for awakened individuals are the Tarot Association, the Countermeasures Committee, and the Demon Hunter Guild, which is a group of powerful awakened individuals from the public who spontaneously gathered together with the aim of exterminating Shadow Beasts.

This guild also cooperates with the authorities, and under certain circumstances, it will obey the authorities' partial management and work together to suppress awakened individuals who intend to cause turmoil in the real world.

However, they mostly maintain their independence.

Their status can be roughly summarized as "obeying orders but not proclamations".

Yuan Qingguang, based on Yuan Xun's introduction, felt that the Demon Hunter Guild members were probably tough guys.

In any modern, rule-of-law society with only one government, the emergence of a military organization that "obeys orders but not pronouncements" poses a threat to the ruling position of the authorities, regardless of its own motives.

The fact that this group can force the government to compromise and make concessions only shows that they possess the hard power and organizational capacity to make even the authorities reluctantly acknowledge their special status.

"To put it bluntly, they're just a bunch of troublemakers?" Yuan Qing picked up some rice with his chopsticks and summarized as he ate, "They're very capable, have stubborn tempers, and are not obedient."

But when faced with a major problem that the authorities deem troublesome, or when they need to act as enforcers to deal with certain "unruly" competitors, they will step in—a kind of...cooperation under the "rules of the game"?

“Probably, more or less?” Yuan Xun nodded. “However, I don’t know much about these things. The president and Hong Que didn’t tell me much, and I didn’t ask about it either.”

"Well, after all, she's a little magical girl from the bottom tier. There's a lot going on behind the scenes. It involves adult rules and political maneuvering. The fact that old man Kimura Tsukasa didn't tell you is a kind of protection for you."

"Oh yeah... Hey! Did you call me a lowly C-grade again?!"

"I didn't add the word 'stinky' in my criticism."

"Damn it, do you believe I'll stab you to death with one chopstick? I'll stab you to death? I'll stab you to death?"

"Are you willing to give up? You won't be able to eat delicious and authentic Chinese food anymore?"

"Hmm...that's true. Okay, I'll stab you to death when I'm tired of eating you."

"Ha, then you probably won't have the chance in your lifetime. You'd be amazing if you could eat half of the eight major cuisines."

After a minor, amusing incident, Yuan Qing asked some other questions.

It is currently known that awakened individuals acquire power in various ways.

A normal Awakened One is one who can sense and enter the Moon Etching, tame their potential, and thus awaken their power.

Magical girls are the awakened flowers of the heart.

Of course, I am the only exception; awakening my power is entirely due to talent and hard work.

Furthermore, all Awakened Ones follow a fundamental principle: power is linked to aptitude.

The greater one's potential, the stronger one's power will be upon awakening, but thereafter it will be virtually impossible for them to grow any further.

However, there are exceptions like the Red Sparrow, who are able to break free from their own limitations and advance to a higher level of powerhouses.

Once the Awakened Ones gain power and are noticed, they will be approached by the three major powers.

Because Yuan Qing spends most of his time wandering inside the Tower of Illusion, he doesn't have any contact with the outside world.

If he hadn't been accidentally sucked into the instance last night while trying to save Toriumi Riki, he probably wouldn't have been able to reveal his identity for a long time.

In that case, perhaps I should also consider the organization?

He wasn't very interested in the Demon Hunters Guild because there was too little information available.

Countermeasures Committee? Forget it, he didn't want to deal with that leadership team.

Judging from her sister's expression when she answered, she trusted the Tarot Association quite a bit, and if she could get in, it would be easier for her to protect her.

So, should I join the Tarot Association?

Yuan Qing brought up his idea, but to his utter surprise, he was met with his sister's merciless ridicule:

"You want to join the Tarot Association? Forget it, bro. You're not a magical girl. The association only accepts magical girls."

"There's actually such a rule? Why?"

"Well, I don't really know the specifics, but it seems to be related to an accidental attack two years ago."

Originally, the Tarot Association, like other organizations, recruited talented people from all over the world. However, after the attack, the president fired everyone except the magical girls and also paid out a large sum of money and magical items.

"That's interesting. I can almost smell the melon."

Yuan Qing stroked his chin, then sneered, "Little sister, you're a bit clueless. You've been in the association for almost half a year, and you still can't even figure out how to follow the gossip."

"Hmph, who has time to pay attention to those old, trivial matters? Besides, almost no one in the association mentions them, so why would I go and make things difficult for them?"

Yuan Xun glared at him angrily.

"Okay, okay, my sister is a good girl who can control her curiosity~ alright?"

"whispering sound!"

Yuan Qing smiled and asked, "By the way, you just mentioned the president. Who is the president of the Tarot Association?"

"Of course it's Shiomi-senpai."

"Huh? Are you kidding me? She's only 17!"

"Brother, you need to learn to see through appearances to the essence. After Senior Xijian awakened three years ago, she joined the Tarot Association. Because of her considerable strength, her status in the association has skyrocketed."

Even the former president herself admitted that she was no match for her in managing the association.

"Wow, that woman is incredibly talented. She's opened it, right?"

After a pause, Yuan Qing asked again, "And who was the former president of the association?"

"You know this person, it's Master Nakado."

"Holy crap, it really is him? Hmm, that makes sense, after all, he's the only S-rank in Tokyo. But that guy doesn't seem like he's cut out to be a manager."

"Hmm, that's what he said himself, so after that attack, he resigned, and the responsibilities of the chairman fell to Shiomi-senpai."

Oh, by the way, Professor Nakado is a cabinet minister, you probably didn't know that, did you?"

"Huh? He's a cabinet minister? I can't find him on Google!"

"Idiot! Of course it's not the minister of the 11th ministry, but the hidden 12th ministry of Japan, called the 'Ministry of Abnormal Management'."

However, after resigning from the association, he also resigned from his position as minister. The current minister is Chiyo Amamiya, who is also the vice president of the Tarot Association.

"Wait, wait—slow down!"

Yuan Qing stared wide-eyed as if he had heard something extremely shocking: "You mean Amamiya Chiyo? That Amamiya Chiyo?"

"Correct."

"Is that the current top-tier celebrity, Japan's once-in-a-millennium national beauty, Amamiya Chiyo?"

"Didn't expect that, did you?" Yuan Xun seemed to have finally seized an opportunity to retaliate, and showed a look of disdain towards Yuan Qing.

She took a leisurely sip of water before continuing, "That's true, how could an ordinary person possibly have that level of beauty?"

Actually, the reason she's so beautiful is because she's always maintained her magical girl form. Of course, among all the magical girls, she's the most beautiful one. In terms of looks alone, even Danju can only match her.

"Uh......"

Yuan Qing's heart, which had just begun to flutter, felt as if it had been doused with a bucket of cold water.

He swallowed hard, his voice trembling as he asked, "Hey sis, I have something I want to ask you."

"Hmm? Go ahead and ask, why are you so nervous?"

"Exactly, tell me the truth, before she transformed, was Amamiya Chiyo a man or a woman?"

"Yo~~~"

Yuan Qing immediately revealed a wicked grin, as if he had caught someone red-handed.

"Oh dear, I almost forgot, my older brother is a fan of both Amagi Chiyo's looks and her music."

Amamiya Chiyo is quite popular, right? She seems to understand men very well, doesn't she? Everyone says that men understand men best, so is she male or female? Ugh~ it's so hard to guess!

"Hey, your expression clearly shows you're feeling sorry for me!! Could it be...?"

Yuan Qing's body trembled violently.

In that instant, he thought of many things.

He recalled Chiyo Amamiya's heavenly voice, her flawless face, and the heart gesture and wink she would give after each performance.

A teenager's heartbeats always come on strong and intense.

To put it simply, during his most innocent and loving year, he used photos of Chiyo Amamiya as his spellcasting materials for a whole month.

Now you're going to tell him that he's been hitting a man for a month?

Haha!

Brothers, I'm going downstairs to buy a pack of cigarettes. I won't take the stairs or the elevator.

Buhou! You're already 5 chapters behind?!

I need to pay off my debts as soon as I launch this product, or I'm doomed!

Volume 1: Chapter 63 The President's Olive Branch

"Knock knock knock."

A sudden knock on the door interrupted the brother and sister's conversation.

The two looked up and stared at each other, both seeing confusion in each other's eyes.

"Brother, someone's knocking on the door."

"I'm not deaf."

"Hmm, who could it be? Hey, don't just stand there, hurry up and open the door."

"You're closer to the entrance, you go."

Hearing Yuan Qing say this, Yuan Xun immediately moved back a little, then stretched out her small foot and poked Yuan Qing's shoulder:

"You're closer now, go quickly."

"You're so lazy!"

While complaining, Yuan Qing pushed her foot aside and walked towards the entrance.

"coming."

He opened the door and looked ahead.

Ok?

Why don’t I see anyone?

"Look down, I'm below you."

A remarkably calm voice came from in front of me.

Yuan Qing lowered his head subconsciously.

A small figure was standing at the door.

Her signature long, pure white hair flowed with the afterglow of the sunlight, a few strands of which were gently swayed by the breeze.

She stared at Yuan Qing with her red eyes, her gaze shifting with a hint of scrutiny.

"Minato... President? What brings you here?"

Yuan Qing stared wide-eyed in surprise.

"Didn't I tell you I'd need to talk to you?"

Shiori Shiomi raised her hand, her slender fingers gently smoothing her wind-blown hair.

She remained silent for a long while before slowly speaking, "Yuan Qingjun."

"Ok?"

"When you talk to me, please lower your head a little further and face me directly. Do you think your nostrils are pretty?"

"Emmm, sorry."
