Why are the magical girls in your area male?

Take small, light, and graceful steps.

She took careful steps, trying to break free of that "ladylike" image.

However......

"Clap!"

She suddenly tripped over her right foot with her left, and stumbled!

"careful!"

Yuan Qing reacted quickly and grabbed her arm.

When you touch it, you feel the girl's slender and delicate arm. Through the thin fabric of her uniform, you can feel the warmth of her skin and her slight trembling.

"Thank...thank you."

Danzhu steadied herself, her face instantly turning red to her ears. She quickly withdrew her arm, her voice barely audible.

She was internally screaming: Damn it, how embarrassing! I almost tripped and fell flat on my face! Yuki Tsukishiro, you idiot, can't you even walk properly?!

Yuan Qing looked at her bright red ears and said, forcing a smile, "It's good that you're alright, senior. Be careful when you walk."

"Ah, um..." Danzhu lowered her head, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

The two continued walking, the atmosphere seemingly a little awkward.

Danzhu tried to find a topic to talk about: "Yuanqing, are you... settling in well at school?"

“It’s great, the students are all very friendly,” Yuan Qing replied.

He paused for a moment, then deliberately complained, "I have a bad friend who carries poop for me every day. Yesterday was Sunday, and he carried a week's worth of poop for me. It's driving me crazy."

I didn't reply to his messages, and this morning he actually cursed at me. What a bastard!

Danzhu smiled slightly, veins bulging on his forehead, and he instinctively wanted to kick him.

But she tried very hard to restrain herself.

Calm down, Yuki Tsukishiro, you need to calm down!

Your current identity is Zhejing Danzhu, an elegant lady!

You absolutely must not do anything so rude!

"Oh, that's good..."

She didn't know what to say, so she just nodded and fell silent.

After a moment, she racked her brains and finally came up with another topic: "Um, how is Yuan Xun doing lately?"

"Her? She can eat and sleep well, but she has a bit of a temper," Yuan Qing replied casually.

"Oh......"

Danzhu was at a loss for words.

When she chats with Yuanqing, they usually talk about each other's dirty laundry, spew trash talk, discuss high school girls, games, and popular anime, and occasionally dabble in politics. They've never been this "refined" before.

After struggling for a while, she finally managed to stammer out, "A girl with a bit of a temper can be quite cute..."

Yuan Qing: "......"

Brother, let's not go this far, I really can't keep up this act anymore.

===========

========

Five updates, totaling 13,000 words! A proper serialized story!!

By the way, I forgot to add yesterday's bounty:

Gold Treasure Chest +60 chapters, Silver Treasure Chest +20 chapters~

Although I've never received a treasure chest, I still have to have dreams. What if I meet a rich loli or rich guy? (bends up his butt)

Volume 1: Chapter 70 Danzhu's Dowry (5K)

Yuan Qing almost choked on his own saliva.

That bastard Yuki Tsukishiro actually said something as unethical as "Kaoru Minamoto has a cute personality" just to find a topic to talk about.

I despise him!

Could it be that becoming a magical girl will naturally lead to a "feminine" mindset?

That's why she said such girlish lines?

Ha, let's knock out the hook.

If this setting were true, Red Sparrow wouldn't be like those old fogies in the office, guzzling down goji berry black tea, um, tea leaves, and speaking with that old man's slang.

To ease the awkwardness, Yuan Qing suggested, "Senior Dan Zhu, we've been walking for so long, how about we go sit in that coffee shop over there? I'll treat you to something to drink."

"Oh? Okay, okay! But I'll treat you. I'm the senior, how can I let a junior treat me?"

Danzhu's eyes lit up, as if he had found a lifeline.

She's already struggling to learn to walk like a lady, so sitting is safer than continuing to walk, right? At least she won't have to worry about tripping over her own foot and falling flat on her face!

However, if Ah Qing could catch me every time I almost fell...

It seems pretty good?

The two entered a rather elegant coffee shop, and Yuanqing gentlemanly pulled out a chair for Danzhu.

Seeing this, Danzhu couldn't hold back her emotions.

You bastard, are you trying to be a gentleman?

Don't pretend, I know what kind of person you are, buddy.

She suppressed the urge to complain and tried hard to recall the proper sitting posture of a "lady".

Stand with your legs together, back straight, and hands clasped on your lap...

She sat down carefully, with such perfect posture that it could be included in an etiquette textbook.

Yuan Qing sat down opposite her and picked up the menu on the table: "What would you like to drink, senior?"

"I'd like some Coca-Cola... cappuccino."

Danzhu said stiffly.

That was close, we almost crashed.

A lady shouldn't drink carbonated beverages; she should enjoy a sophisticated coffee like a young, budding girl.

"OK, then I'll just order a glass of orange juice."

Yuan Qing closed the menu.

The drinks were served quickly.

Danzhu looked at the beautifully decorated cappuccino in front of her and couldn't help but swallow.

It's definitely not okay to gulp it down like before.

A lady, one must be a lady.

She mimicked the mannerisms of socialites on television, extending her slender fingers to gracefully pinch the handle of the cup, her little finger slightly raised, before slowly bringing it to her lips and taking small sips.

Yuan Qing's lips twitched as he looked at her cautious expression, as if she were facing a formidable enemy and had just drunk poison.

Dude, you've gone a bit overboard with your role.

It's just a coffee, is it really that big of a deal?

You don't usually drink Coke like this!

Wearing a JK uniform makes even your movements more ladylike.

By the way, where did you get this outfit? I've never seen you studying at Hua Xiaochuan.

Oh, yes.

Magical girls, changing clothes is a piece of cake, isn't it?

Yuan Qing took a sip of orange juice through a straw and asked, "Speaking of which, Senior Danzhu, I don't know your name yet."

Danzhu was taken aback by the question thrown at him.

my name?

Oh no, I forgot about that!

Make one up on the spot? No way, I have terrible taste when it comes to names.

Got it!

With her mind at ease, Danzhu's slender fingers gripped the small spoon, and she began to stir slowly and methodically: "It's a secret, Yuanqing, just call me Senior Danzhu."

You even went to bed with her secretly.

Look at your pinky finger, it's almost pointing to the sky! Aren't you tired, bro?

Yuan Qing suppressed a laugh and nodded in agreement: "The privacy of a beautiful girl, is that right? I understand."

"..."

Do you understand yourself?

"Let's get down to business."

Danzhu put down her cup, snapped her fingers, and an invisible magical barrier instantly enveloped their booth.

"This is a noise barrier to ensure that what we say cannot be heard by others."

She gave a brief explanation, then said seriously, "Yuanqing, although it might be a little late to ask now, are you sure? Do you really want to join the association?"

"Is there a problem?"

"Of course there's a problem. Young people who have just awakened their powers all think they are different from others, dreaming of rising to prominence and making a name for themselves in that unknown world."

After the crisis the night before last, you probably know that lunar erosion is extremely dangerous; one wrong move and you could lose your life...

Hey, don't act like it's none of my business. I'm serious!

"Oh, oh, oh, I know, I know."

Yuan Qing sipped his orange juice and said nonchalantly, "Don't worry, Senior Danzhu, I'm still young. I won't give up my life so soon."

"Well, for safety and survival, I've come to rely on you guys. As the saying goes, it's good to have a big tree to lean on. It's much safer to be in your running group, right?"

"Well, it's really hard to say."

Danzhu sighed, her expression revealing a hint of helplessness: "Since you are the only non-magical girl awakener who was 'specially' recruited, you must have heard about the attack two years ago."

Moon Etching, Shadow Beasts, Lord Chiefs... In addition to these, the magical girls' enemies include other Awakened Ones.

The association faces considerable external pressure; without the support of the president and other high-ranking members, it might have been absorbed by the government long ago.

"You mean, being recruited by the countermeasures committee?"

"Yes, the government has never stopped its plan to 'unify' the moon. After all, it's a state apparatus, and it's impossible for them to ignore 'opposition parties' like us."

The association's deep cooperation with the Anomaly Countermeasures Committee is actually a compromise with the authorities.

If it weren't for Senior Nakado standing in the way, and the president's strong-willed approach, the association might have already changed hands...

Yuan Qing nodded and then asked, "Do you know how many S-class ships Japan currently has?"

"The Demon Hunter Guild has 3 members, we have 2 here, and the Countermeasures Committee originally had 3 members, but they awakened a new S-rank member last month, so there are 4 in total."

In addition, there were two lone individuals who did not belong to any faction, those two guys...

At this point, Danzhu abruptly stopped.

"What happened to those two?"

"Oh, it's nothing, just mentioning it. Those two S-class Awakened Ones without affiliation to any organization are quite strong, and they're not in Japan right now."

"So, besides Senior Nakado, the association only has one S-rank member?"
