What a joke! Magical girls, just obediently get hypnotized!

Sigh, this dazzling yet oppressive world.

Fortunately, the magical girls seem unaffected by these things, which is why Lin En was able to keep her identity a secret even after being in the same class as Ling Yuwei for a whole semester.

Lynn has no intention of dating magical lunatics unless absolutely necessary.

You want me to play dating games with them?

"Is there anything else?"

Once inside, the two sat down in their familiar positions.

"Well, it's not that I'm concerned about you or anything, I was just asking casually,"

The girl turned her head away, her fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes.

"Anyway, you...you're not hurt, are you? Yue Yiyi ⊙ Yi Qi Siwu Bar"

"No."

Lynn said.

"That's good,"

The girl seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, the biggest weight lifted from her heart, her tense shoulders relaxed slightly, and then her tone became more relaxed:

Where is Jinxiu?

She mentioned that name cautiously.

"She's fine, she just left temporarily."

"That's it."

Ling Yuwei nodded with a complicated expression.

This action caught Lynn's attention, and he raised an eyebrow slightly:

"She treated you like that tonight, but you don't seem to dislike her that much?"

"Well, it's impossible to say I don't dislike it at all,"

The girl scratched her temple, then pondered for a moment and said:

"Although I did say things like I wouldn't forgive her at the time, and she said she would take my magic stone, after calming down afterwards, I always felt that she actually held back against me. Besides, her purpose in coming here this time was to eliminate the evil beast, right? If she were really a fallen magical girl, she wouldn't do something that would be thankless and without any reward."

She paused, organizing her thoughts.

"I was thinking that since we're all magical girls, there might be some misunderstanding between us. I think if we meet again next time, it would be better to try to communicate with her again."

Lynn nodded. This was similar to his analysis. Moreover, if Eileen was willing to communicate with Jinxiu as a magical girl, it would be much more convenient for her than for him. He could then obtain information directly from Eileen. Why not?

Moreover, in the past, when watching dramas or playing games, the villains would use divisive tactics that even a pig could see through, and the entire protagonist's side would go completely insane as if their intelligence had been lowered, indiscriminately and frantically attacking their teammates, which made Lynn's blood pressure rise.

It has to be Eileen, a protagonist with a bit of brains but not many. Lynn is much more comfortable watching her.

However, this is also because stories with magical girl themes are mostly lighthearted and bright, so the girls' thoughts are not very dark.

That's about it for tonight. Is there anything else you'd like to ask?

Thinking that he would need to make good use of Eileen as a tool in the future, Lynn's tone softened a little.

"Yes, there are many!"

Unexpectedly, upon hearing Lynn's clearly polite words, Ling Yuwei not only didn't take her leave, but instead raised her head, staring intently at him, and said impatiently,

"Cui...no, Lynn, what is your real purpose? Why have you been doing these things? Are you truly a completely evil person? Did you join **** because of some hidden reason? How did you defeat Jin Xiu? Please answer me! I...I can help you!"

Lynn didn't expect that her casual remark would elicit such a barrage of questions from Eileen, who seemed to be asking a million questions.

Whose sentanada is this?

Unfortunately, although the girl asked many questions, a large portion of them were things that Lynn absolutely could not reveal to her at this stage, nor could she explain clearly.

However, it's unlikely that he can get rid of Eileen with just a few words, and besides, this is exactly what he planned to do once and for all today.

He thought for a moment, then skillfully unlocked the drawer in the school clinic and pulled out a piece of parchment that shimmered with a magical aura.

"Miracles and magic don't come for free, and neither does the truth."

Lynn smiled.

"I can answer your question, but if you want it, you have to come and get it yourself. This is a contractual magical artifact. If you want to know the truth, you should accept this contract first."

He pushed the parchment toward Ling Yuwei.

Another magical artifact?!

Ling Yuwei stared blankly at the parchment that Lin En had taken out.

Although she hadn't been a magical girl for long, she had heard from Senior Shika that magical tools were extremely rare. The other person had been a magical girl for several years and only had one. Not only did Lynn casually take out a magical tool and give it to her, but she also specially took out another magical tool to form a contract with her.

Is this... is this the true value of a corrupt official?

No, it should be said that this is the value of Lynn's work, right?

Moreover, it is said that he had only been a corrupt official for a short time.

But should we sign a contract with the other party?

Although tonight's actions have completely convinced her that Lynn's villainous status is indeed in quotes, he is definitely not a pure villain.

But his act of giving away his magic stone to the cow made the girl hesitate.

After all, even if Lynn isn't a completely evil person, it doesn't mean he's on the side of the magical girls and can be completely trusted, right?

It turns out that all the agreements between the two parties were just verbal. If things really came to a head and Lynn did something unforgivable, Ling Yuwei would not hesitate to break the contract. She believed that Lynn thought the same way.

However, once a contract is signed and certified by a contractual magical tool, there's truly no turning back, right?

"I... I want to go back and discuss this with my spirit beast."

Ling Yuwei hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"No."

Lynn shook her head, her attitude resolute.

“I have erased your spirit beast’s memories of me, and this contract must be kept secret. Moreover, my generosity is limited. Magical Girl Irene, you only have one chance.”

"why is it like this?"

The girl hesitated for a moment, her lips slightly pursed.

"I understand your concerns, but why not take a look at the contents of the contract before making a decision?"

Lynn then patiently and persuasively explained.

Hearing Lynn's words, Ling Yuwei realized that she hadn't actually read the contents of the contract yet. She reached out and took the parchment from Lynn's hand, but the moment her fingertips touched it, a faint magical fluctuation came, and the information about the magical tool appeared in the girl's mind along with the contents of the contract.

[The Contract of Judah (Imitation)]

[Effect: After the contract is signed, both parties will be obligated to comply with its terms, and no one can violate it.]

[Note: The sound of gold coins falling into a bag is proof that a transaction has been completed. Oh, Judas, the most shocking traitor in the world, and the first merchant. For a bag of gold coins, he could even betray his mentor. But, from another perspective, even before his own god, he kept his covenant, didn't he? Heh, humans, aren't you interesting? —Lord Mercy]

[Current Contract Terms: Both parties shall keep each other's identities and secrets confidential and shall never disclose them privately. Party A shall provide answers to Party B, and Party B shall provide assistance to Party A when necessary, provided that such assistance does not violate moral principles or ethical boundaries.]

Hmm, the terms seem... pretty fair?

No, this seems like a pretty good deal!

After reading the contents of the contract, Eileen was immediately tempted.

In fact, this contract not only seems to have no pitfalls, but it also seems to be in my favor.

Although Lynn added a clause requiring me to provide assistance, as long as it doesn't violate my moral bottom line, there's nothing wrong with helping him, right?

It might even be a good opportunity to redeem Lynn.

But... however, just as the contract stated, this was too kind to her, even a bit too much, which made the girl somewhat suspicious.

"Well, have you finished reading? If you're still going to refuse, I'll put it away. Make good use of this opportunity, Eileen~"

At that moment, Lynn leaned close to the girl's ear and whispered in her ear, her warm breath brushing against her earlobe.

"Um...I..."

Although Eileen was hesitant, upon hearing the voice coming from behind her ear, her body went weak, her cheeks flushed, and her fingers unconsciously went to the magical tool. Instantly, the runes on the parchment lit up, turning into two streams of light that entered the two people's bodies respectively, and the contract was completed!

A burning sensation suddenly surged from Eileen's lower abdomen, as if it were engraving some kind of mark, causing her legs to involuntarily tighten and her consciousness to return instantly.

Why does this contract require me to get a tattoo again?!

Including the one on her tongue, this is the second time Lynn has added a strange tattoo to herself. However—she subconsciously glanced at the mirror in the school infirmary and subtly twisted her slender legs, which were covered in black stockings. This time, she couldn't have the examination done in front of Lynn like last time.

"Very good, happy cooperation."

Lynn put the parchment away with satisfaction.

This way, all the remaining hidden dangers on Eileen's side are resolved. With the contract in place, even if she really wanted to mutually destroy each other, she wouldn't be able to.

Moreover, the lack of manpower for villainous tasks has always been a headache for Lynn. If he can get Eileen to help him, there are many more things he can do.

"Now you should answer my question, right?"

Gritting her teeth and suppressing her strangeness, Eileen asked, her eyes regaining their anticipation.

As long as she could provide help without violating morality, she could get Lynn's secret in return, which she considered a win.

"Just ask."

Lynn calmly sat back down in her chair.

"The first question,"

A blush suddenly flashed across Eileen's cheeks, and she asked a question she hadn't asked before:

"You...do you think I'm a real magical girl now?"

She probed, her eyes filled with uncertainty and a longing for approval.

"I think you are."

Lynn answered without hesitation.

"Ok!"

As if she had received the most precious recognition, the girl revealed a slightly smug expression.

It works! Indeed, this contract is very useful!

Hehehe~

Then, seizing the opportunity, she said with anticipation:

"Then could you please answer the questions I just asked you?"

"Your questions..."

Lynn spoke slowly and deliberately again, drawing out his words. The girl's expectant eyes shone brightly, and she leaned forward, almost standing up.

I can't answer any of them.

"what?"

Eileen was stunned; the expectation on her face froze instantly, turning into a blank stare.

"Our contract states that I will answer your questions, but it doesn't specify which ones to answer, nor does it say that I will answer all of them."

Lynn said matter-of-factly.

Ling Yuwei stood up abruptly, staring intently at Lin En without blinking.

But when the other party sat there and leisurely showed off the inconspicuous contract tattoo on the back of his hand that showed no reaction, she instantly realized that she had been tricked again.

"You lied to me again! You're such a big liar!!"

The girl's voice was filled with anger and grievance at being deceived.

I was so stupid to actually believe him!

And why is his contractual position so normal?!

Faced with the girl's angry glare, which seemed ready to pounce at him any second, Lynn simply spoke as if he had been prepared, suddenly changing the subject:

"Yuwei, have you read 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms'?"

"That's required reading, and what does it matter to us whether we've read it or not? I won't let you go until you give me an explanation!"
