Living with a magical girl, but a weirdo cadre

　However, there had been no reports of anyone going missing before this. After all, it's difficult to distinguish between a missing person and someone whose remains have truly vanished without a trace.

　Especially now, with the "defense line contracting," it's difficult to determine whether the missing persons moved first or disappeared during the disaster.

　Moreover, since the "renovation was rolled out," disappearances have become less common...

　But eventually, there will still be some clues...

　-

　"Drip-drip-"

　"..." Tao Shuyuefa silently took out his phone from his waist, shook his head in annoyance... Angels have appeared in Southeast Asia.

　As Southeast Asia is a territory bound by the Treaty of Suspension, it is only natural for him to go and resolve any unrest there.

　But it was still quite troublesome.

　Sometimes, even the most powerful and influential figures like Tao Shuyuefa have become too lazy to care about their own territory, just like him fishing by the sea right now.

　I saw Cong Yuhe last time

　After Chi You fished, he developed a strong interest in the activity.

　He has always enjoyed conflict and cooperation, hunting and playing...

　Just like the war game I had played with myself before, fishing also seemed to be a kind of hunting.

　Moreover, it is a hunting game that is based on established rules (games) and involves both competition and cooperation with other anglers.

　Regardless of the specific characteristic, it all hit his target area perfectly...

　However, when his own territory is being harmed, as the leader of the Southeast Asian United Nations, he cannot simply turn a blind eye and continue fishing.

　Tao Shuyue put down his fishing rod, shifted his gaze from the water to the screen of his phone, which was now open with the "Didi Dache Angel" app.

　He stood up and packed away his fishing gear, placing each tool back into his backpack with methodical and orderly movements...

　There is no rush to impose a binding treaty.

　Although he wasn't exactly cold-hearted, he certainly didn't take other people's status too seriously like his colleagues.

　Information on the "Didi Dache Angel APP" indicates that the angel has appeared in "Kanasaka" and seems to have started causing trouble.

　His territory has never had any permanent defenses, and if it is not stopped in time, the consequences will be unimaginable.

　Tao Shuyuefa sighed and became a little more serious.

　Then, when the Tasso-Yovart, flying at an extremely fast speed, arrived at the designated location, it saw the two-winged angels...

　However, it wasn't entirely about causing destruction.

　"Are we...capturing it?"

　As he spoke, he frowned slightly and looked at the two-winged angel in the distance.

　At this moment, the angel's body emitted a faint glow, and it held a semi-transparent hourglass in its hand.

　But instead of sand, there were three people in the hourglass: two men and one woman... miniature human figures bound by the hourglass.

　Their expressions were terrified and desperate, their bodies pulled by an invisible force, bound to the center of the hourglass, pounding on the edge in an attempt to escape.

　However, this is clearly impossible.

　Then, the angel swiftly used the power of faith to create a hole in the ground that led all the way underground, and dropped the hourglass in its hand down...

　The hourglass that holds humanity spun in the air, falling towards the abyss cast by the angels.

　but……

　"call out!!!"

　A beam of light suddenly flew in and struck the hourglass. The magical arrow, imbued with immense power, destroyed the hourglass.

　This surprised Toshuyopha.

　Because everyone had previously studied the hourglass artifact that Cong Yu found in the ruins of the sea, which was extremely difficult to destroy.

　He had originally thought that this hourglass would be as indestructible as that artifact... but now it seems that this is not the case.

　As the angel turned his head in surprise, the hourglass was destroyed by the arrow of light, and the three people imprisoned inside were also freed.

　However, it was also affected by the attack of the light arrow.

　They weren't seriously injured, but one person lost their lower body and the other's abdominal cavity was damaged...

　In this day and age, such injuries are nothing unusual.

　So almost immediately, Tao Shuyuefa, who was busy fishing, immediately used more than 70% of his magic power.

　Holding a massive bow and a huge arrow, he drew the bow towards the angel... and the once clear sky instantly turned gloomy.

　Dark clouds are a symbol of impending destruction.

　Why are you capturing human citizens?

　As Joppa asked this question, the angel remained completely silent, which was quite surprising...

　Almost instantly, the two-winged angel conjured a holy spear and launched an attack on the uninjured person.

　However, the attack was unsuccessful...

　"Whoosh! Boom!!!"

　The enormous arrow of light, almost transforming into a light cannon, was fired from the hand of Joppa, leaving a huge chasm on the ground while swallowing the angel.

　Not only the angels, but also the attacks that the angels were conjuring were all encompassed and destroyed, thus ending the campaign.

　Although half of the distant mountains have been sheared away, the villages at the foot of the mountains may suffer from mudslides later.

　However, Toshyupha did not pay attention to this, but looked at the three people he had rescued.

　"You guys... um?"

　Just as Tao Shuyuefa was about to ask something, he noticed that the two people were clearly on the verge of death.

　He frowned almost instantly...

　These people did not undergo conversion surgery.

　That's impossible, because people with the status of "a family of three" would have a very high waiting list for conversion surgery.

　"Damn it... I have to call Cong Yu right now."

　He cursed as he lamented the ruined fishing trip.

　Chapter 852 Plan B Out?

　The International Rehabilitation Hospital finally welcomed a few patients.

　What to say?

　It might be a bit of an exaggeration, but the world's medical and hospital management systems are now almost completely collapsed.

　Because everyone is rapidly becoming non-human through the "magical girl," "monster," and "prince" transformation surgery (promotion ceremony) that is being dominated worldwide.

　And without a doubt

　Magical girls and other non-human beings do not get sick, and even if they do, they cannot be cured by ordinary doctors.

　This, in turn, has provided assistance to the medical resources available for conversion surgery.

　Therefore, the existing hospitals are basically those that can provide small-scale conversion ritual surgeries...

　Although all the conversion rituals are performed in Mexico, there are always unforeseen circumstances that prevent them from reaching Mexico.

　At that time, those scattered and uncentralized hospitals completed their transformation and began to be responsible for filling gaps and making up for deficiencies.

　Because they are scattered, they won't attract the angels' attention.

　Aside from that, the only one who wants to survive is to provide medical services to the magical girls.

　In this regard, everyone is still learning more...

　After all, magical girls' illnesses are not simple, and there are few repeated cases. Almost every one of them is an isolated case caused by their constitution and bloodline.

　The "International Rehabilitation Hospital" in Malaysia has transformed into the latter, and today it received a patient personally sent by Lord Jovar... who is human.

　They were the real, genuine human beings we miss.

　This is quite unusual in the current environment.

　Meanwhile, the medical team in charge of the three human patients was reporting to Toshu Yofa and Cong Yu, who had arrived at the scene.

　The head of the medical team was a middle-aged man who appeared quite professional and cautious.

　After all, we are facing two monster kings. It would be bad if we were not careful with our words and caused them to misjudge us.

　What their team is like is another matter...

　The world today cannot afford a misjudgment.

　"The three patients are a family of three."

　The doctor in charge began his report by saying, "According to the police... they do not appear to have been involved in the conversion surgery."

　"Aside from that, it's just what we found before, the most basic reason being... um... external injury. Other than that, there's nothing serious."

　"He is out of danger."

　Taussoufa frowned, his gaze shifting back and forth between the doctor and the two unconscious patients.

　In other words, these three people were not transformed back into humans by the angels, but rather they never participated in the transformation in the first place.

　Cong Yu looked at the man on the other side who seemed to have a somewhat empty look in his eyes... This was the father of the family of three.

　"Why not participate in the transformation..."

　As Cong Yu asked this question, he sensed that something was amiss... He had felt something was very wrong when Tao Shuyuefa told him about the situation earlier today.

　There was no prior information regarding either the angels capturing people or the fact that some people had not honestly converted.

　It must all be a conspiracy by Moirai.

　When Cong Yu questioned him, the father, who had been somewhat dazed, regained his composure slightly: "Because..."

　He paused, his face full of regret, and said, "I heard from a friend that if I had gone for the conversion surgery later, maybe the person who performed the surgery would have been paid... like that."

　As a result, I never expected to encounter this situation.

　Cong Yu understood perfectly what he was saying; it was roughly...

　If the number of people who will undergo the final conversion ceremony is still far from sufficient, a policy of "providing economic rewards to those who have undergone the procedure" may be introduced.

　This is something that's easy to make an association with, yet it's also completely impossible.

　After all, it would cause dissatisfaction among those who had already undergone conversion surgery, and only an idiot would do that.

　"Did your friend undergo conversion surgery?"

　Cong Yu asked this question, feeling that things were a bit troublesome, while the father immediately replied: "Yes...everyone did it."

　Divine gold!

　Cong Yu felt that things were no longer troublesome.

　At least we can be certain that there are no malicious individuals behind this incident.

　But the "friend" they mentioned will definitely go to jail.

　However, according to local laws, they might also be subject to... whipping (caning) or something similar?

　Cong Yu wasn't quite sure, so she just sighed and asked the most important question: "So, what happened to your family? Why were you specifically targeted and captured by angels?"

　Upon hearing this, the other party immediately hesitated and replied, "We're not sure either..."

　"We originally thought it was one of those angel attacks that we often see on TV, so we decided to stay at home and wait for the King to arrive."

　"After the outer perimeter of the house was destroyed, I felt a suction force, and then I felt a suction force again... and then I was flying outwards, watching the surrounding scenery get smaller and smaller."

　"Then we realized that we had been shrunk by angels and locked inside a funnel or something made of glass."

　"Then what happened was..."

　"..." It seems that this father doesn't know much either.

　Nodding to indicate that she understood, Cong Yu gestured for everyone to rest well, and then left the ward with Tao Shuyuefa.

　Both of them realized that something was wrong.
