Why are the magical girls in your area male?

A deafening roar shook the heavens and the earth!

The ground beneath my feet began to tremble violently, and the seemingly endless flat ground cracked inch by inch.

The soil and rocks arched upwards as if boiling water, and then, a rugged, steep mountain peak, radiating a strange light, rose from the ground at a speed visible to the naked eye!

At the summit of the mountain stands a magnificent magic castle.

The castle is made of strange stones with different lusters, and its surface is covered with living silver-white runes. Countless towering spires pierce the night sky, and nebula-like halos swirl around the spires.

From a distance, the entire castle looks like a crown set on the mountain peak.

Surrounding the mountain peaks is a magical lake that twinkles with starlight.

The entire castle, along with the mountains and lakes, was shrouded in a magical barrier that rippled like water.

The barrier is adorned with billions of stars, creating a dreamlike scene that clearly separates the inner and outer worlds.

"welcome."

Shiori Shiomi turned to look at Genji Ao, her usually cold tone now carrying a hint of seriousness and gravity:

"This is the real Tarot Association."

Volume 1: Chapter 72 The Chairman's Kindness Can Never Be Repaid (Bonus Chapter 2)

Yuan Qing was stunned for several seconds by the magical and beautiful scenery before him.

Then he frowned and examined it carefully.

This place looks so familiar.

Wait... I understand!

Isn't this Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry?!

The appearance of such a magnificent castle with a fantastical style in a strange and dark world is, you know, quite refreshing.

Then the question comes-

"President, which college should I choose? I want Akazban! And remember, don't assign me Civil Engineering, even a dog wouldn't go there!"

Shiori Shiomi glanced at Genji with the look of someone looking at trash, and then emphasized again: "When you go in later, be polite, don't do anything stupid, and don't stare at other people."

Yuan Qing retorted vehemently, "What kind of person do you take me for? I'm just an idiot, not a pervert."

"..."

You are quite self-aware.

Shiori Shiomi led the two through the shimmering barrier and along the faintly glowing black stone path into the castle.

The interior of the castle is even more breathtaking than the exterior.

The towering dome was painted with flowing star maps, and a huge crystal chandelier floated in mid-air, illuminating the entire hall as bright as day.

The walls were covered with ancient runes, and the air was filled with a faint, strange fragrance, like a mixture of sandalwood and cedar.

Before Yuan Qing could examine the fantastical interior decorations closely, he suddenly felt countless gazes, like searchlights, focus on him.

The hall was not empty.

At this moment, a dozen or so girls were gathered in the hall, some standing and some sitting.

Yes, they were all young girls.

They wore "battle suits" of different styles, but all were exquisite and gorgeous. Their hair colors ranged from silver-white to fiery red, from ice blue to dark green, like an overturned palette with everything imaginable.

As for her appearance, only a barren vocabulary can describe it—

That's the beauty of a national treasure, a beauty that could topple kingdoms!

Any one of them, taken out individually, would be enough to reach the level of a national goddess!

There's no way around it, that's what magical girls are all about—the epitome of beauty and purity.

The "flower of the heart" is the embodiment of "beauty" formed by the pure goodness reflected in the heart of intelligent life in the material world.

Does this setting seem familiar?

Isn't this the "pure and beautiful" star goddess Idris?!

However, the way these beautiful girls looked at Yuan Qing was quite complicated.

There was tension, worry, and fear; some even openly expressed hostility.

A series of wary, cold, and repulsive gazes cut into him like knives, causing Yuan Qing to sigh inwardly.

how to say......

This feels a bit like a wolf cub entering a rabbit's den.

Although they all knew that the wolf cub was hired by the rabbit mother to build the rabbit burrow, the rabbits, having already witnessed their companions being bitten to death, dared not be careless.

Yuan Qing could only shake his head helplessly.

He tried to put on a polite smile that said, "I'm very friendly, please don't worry," but as soon as his lips parted slightly, he keenly sensed that the hostile gazes had become even sharper.

Faced with this, he could only reluctantly withdraw his smile and put on a serious poker face again.

Just then, a gentle, soothing voice came from the side:

"President, you're back."

Yuan Qing looked in the direction of the sound and saw a young girl wearing a light blue gradient dress walking gracefully towards him.

Her long hair shimmered with a soft blue light, like flowing ocean waves.

His pupils were a clear lake blue, and his gaze was gentle and serene, as if it could soothe any restlessness.

Her skirt swayed gently with her steps, like rippling water, exuding a refreshing coolness.

"This must be the new member, Gen Aoki-kun, right?"

She walked up to Shiori Shiomi and Aomoto, a gentle smile on her face:

"Welcome to the Tarot Association. I am 'Lingze Shuiyuan', and I am in charge of the initial reception and guidance of new members."

The girl's voice was like a clear mountain spring, melodious and instantly dispelling the tense atmosphere in the hall.

Although hostility still exists, the tense and fearful gazes have clearly eased considerably.

"Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you, Senior Mizuki."

Yuan Qing nodded politely, feeling relieved.

Finally, there's someone who seems normal and easy to talk to.

"Shuiyuan, he's in your hands now. Xun, and the others, come with me."

"clear."

The other magical girls responded enthusiastically, following Shiori Shiomi in a lively and cheerful manner, heading towards the other side of the corridor.

"Yuanqing-kun, I'm going to take you on a tour of all the important locations in the Tarot Association. Before we begin, is there anything you'd like to ask me?"

"Uh, there really is."

"Please don't be shy, please ask."

"Um, Senior Shuiyuan, what's going on here...?"

"Ok?"

Is there a men's restroom?

"..."

Shui Yuan's gentle and proper smile froze instantly.

The hall was deathly silent.

Even the magical girls who had already reached the entrance of the corridor all looked at him with eyes that seemed to regard him as an idiot.

Some even showed expressions of despair, as if saying, "Our association is really going to collapse."

Shiori Shiomi's lips twitched almost imperceptibly, while Kaoru Minamoto covered his face in utter despair.

So embarrassing.

Before long, all the magical girls in the association will know that their brother is an absolute idiot!

Did he listen to all the advice I gave him and the president?!

"Uh, sorry, I was just asking, after all, everyone needs to use the restroom sometimes..."

Yuan Qing lowered his head in embarrassment.

What could he do? He was desperate too.

Who knew those magical girls had such keen hearing? Even though I was speaking so softly, they could still hear me.

Shuiyuan took a deep breath and tried her best to maintain a professional smile: "I'm sorry, Yuanqing-kun, the association only has shower rooms, not toilets. If you need one, you can go outside."

"Oh well."

There isn't even a restroom? Do these magical girls not need to use the toilet after transforming?

Wait a minute, I remember in some works, magical girls are completely bald after transforming.

Yes, literally bald, without any pink nipples or sexual organs.

Are these guys also like that?

"Come on, Yuanqing-jun, I'll show you around."

Mizuki made a "please" gesture and took the lead in walking down the corridor in the opposite direction from Shiori and the others.

The corridor was wide and high, with stone bricks on both sides engraved with ancient runes, and crystal chandeliers floating in mid-air, emitting a soft white light, embedded at intervals.

The ground was paved with smooth, dark stone slabs, reflecting the light of the crystal chandelier above.

Shui Yuan dutifully introduced:

"This is the central hall, the main passageway connecting to the fortress."

"The left side leads to the training ground and the simulated combat room."

"The library is on the right."

"Ahead are the public rest area and restaurant."

"Ah, and the main hall we just saw, that's the auditorium, which is sometimes used to hold victory celebrations."

......

An hour later, with Shui Yuan's help, Yuan Qing had finally explored most of the huge castle.

The more he wandered around, the more he felt like he was playing with Remnants of Hogwarts.

Because they look so alike.

The association not only has various towers, corridors, and secret basements, but also all sorts of magic classrooms.

For example, there are potion classrooms, magic item classrooms, defensive magic classrooms, combat skills classrooms...

Honestly, this place is basically a magic academy mainly for magical girls!

This really has the feel of a sect.

"I've finished introducing everything I need to, Yuanqing-kun."

Shuiyuan placed her hands in front of her lower abdomen, her two long, beautiful legs stretched straight: "You are free to wander around now, but please watch your words."

As you probably know, because of that incident, the members are rather... cautious about awakened non-magical girls.

Yuan Qing nodded: "Yes, I understand."

"Then, this is for you."

Shuiyuan took out a card and handed it to Yuanqing.

The latter initially thought it was some kind of magical artifact, but upon closer inspection, realized it was just an ordinary item...

bank card?!

"There's 100 million yen in here. It's a membership subsidy from the chairman to new members. The chairman said the password is your birthday."
