Chapter 30 Welcome
Chapter 30 Welcome
"Iris! Hurry up! Keep up!"
"I'm trying! Little Hyacinth, wait for me!"
Two brilliant trails streaked across the night sky over Chengdu.
Magical girls' flights are always quite a spectacle, especially their trails; the magical trails they create when flying at full speed can even light up the night sky.
Hua Ling tried her best to keep up with Nan Xiaofeng ahead of her.
Or, to put it another way, magical girl hyacinth.
Five minutes ago, the two received a notification from the Hero Association to launch an attack: [Heart Moon Fox] appeared at the East Railway Station and summoned a monster after the crowd had been cleared.
If it were an ordinary weirdo, the heroes on duty at the association would react quickly and attack them, but a magical girl—the villain kind—had to show up at the scene.
"As a magical girl, you must never reveal your true name during battle."
The white ferret sprite perched on the white magical girl's shoulder and spoke to her.
"Especially now that there's a self-proclaimed villain, Heart Moon Fox, active around, Iris, you must be careful to protect yourself."
"Protect yourself?... Um..."
Hua Ling didn't quite understand what Bai Ling beside her meant.
It wasn't until Nan Xiaofeng slowed down slightly and returned to her side to explain a few words that Hua Ling finally understood.
"After we transform, magic will block our perception, so no one will know what we looked like before the transformation."
"But if that Heart Moon Fox finds out our true identities, she might attack our family and friends!"
"That guy is a complete scoundrel! Utterly wicked!" Nan Xiaofeng was so angry he gritted his teeth.
"But..." Karin wanted to say something, but couldn't bring herself to say it.
—I don't think Xinyuehu is that bad.
Hua Ling wanted to say that, but seeing Nan Xiaofeng's gritted teeth, she could only remain silent.
Soon, the once brightly lit East Railway Station came into view.
The Hero Association's vehicles and staff have set up a cordon around the area, and all passengers have been properly protected in nearby shelters, leaving the station completely empty.
But instead of the freak's terrifying roar, melodious singing could be heard coming from the station.
This struck Hyacinth as very strange.
"They're hyacinths and irises!"
Sharp-eyed people recognized the two magical girls who had rushed over and shouted, and the reporters who had been waiting immediately rushed forward with their cameras and microphones.
Iris wasn't used to being interviewed like this, and nervously clenched her skirt.
Hyacinth, on the other hand, looked like a seasoned veteran. She took Iris's hand and led her from the safety passage to the edge of the isolation zone, where she briefly exchanged information with the on-duty hero in charge of guarding the area.
Looking at Nan Xiaofeng's mature and experienced demeanor, Hua Ling couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Phew... thank goodness for Hyacinth, otherwise I definitely wouldn't have been able to handle it alone..."
"What are you saying? Aren't you two teammates? Magical girls are supposed to help each other and team up."
The white sable spirit floated beside the iris and said with a smile.
"And have you seen how Hyacinth looked when she was first interviewed? Her face was almost as red as an apple."
"Is that so... Hehe..."
I imagined the hyacinth blushing and stammering shyly, while the iris covered her mouth and chuckled softly. Her princess-like elegant smile immediately attracted a flurry of photographers.
The reporters had even figured out how to write tomorrow's headlines:
[The pristine white magical princess! Rookie magical girl Iris makes her debut!]
"Irises! Come and see!"
Having ascertained the current situation, Hyacinth turned and greeted them.
"What's the situation inside?" Iris asked as she walked over to her companion.
The two of them looked at the screen next to the hero on duty at the same time:
The live stream of Magical Girl Fox Official.
The golden fox stood on a stage haphazardly made of chair boards and sang. Her melodious voice made people momentarily forget that this was the scene of a monster attack.
It felt more like a stage that belonged exclusively to her.
"It's that guy again..." Hyacinth muttered.
She could already see the barrage of comments, all of them cheering and some incoherent, crazy comments like "Fox is so cute, waaaaaah!"
Iris silently watched the little golden fox singing intently on the screen, her grip on her skirt tightening even more.
Unlike the hyacinth's annoyance and anger, the iris simply found the little fox adorable.
It reminds one of another golden fox that is just as cute as her.
"He made such a mess of the train station just to create a stage for himself? Xin Yuehu is despicable!"
Hyacinth uttered these words and turned to her companion, saying:
"Let's go, irises!"
"Let's go in and teach her a lesson!"
Two magical girls crossed the cordon and ran quickly into the train station.
In the darkness atop an office building in the distance, a deep blue figure emerged from the shadows.
The dark blue fitted top and swallowtail cape, paired with a simple short skirt and short socks that don't quite fit the usual glamorous style of magical girls, make it impossible to associate her with a magical girl at all.
A flash of blue light appeared.
In the blink of an eye, the little kitten girl's attire had completely changed:
The simple sportswear was replaced by an elegant and gorgeous dress, a magic wand floated behind her, and a pair of heterochromatic cat eyes were fixed on the princess-like, pure white magical girl.
The catgirl narrowed her eyes, as if watching her prey.
.
"Thump!"
Hyacinth kicked open the tightly closed door inside the East Station.
The station was dark and the power was out, but a spotlight, created by magic, shone on the makeshift stage, enveloping the little fox who was singing.
The singing echoed in the empty hall; although it was just a cappella, it was still very pleasant to hear.
"Phew... I'm done singing! Thank you everyone!~"
After finishing the song, Jin Hu happily said to the camera, full of energy, she was just like a dazzling idol on stage.
Hyacinth, who was about to deliver her lines, was also stunned by her adorable appearance, and the iris that followed her in also showed the same expression.
"So cute..." the iris murmured to herself.
Hyacinth did not refute her companion's sentiments; she simply did not want to voice them.
A brief silence.
After finishing her performance, Xin Yuehu turned her head to look at the two people who had kicked the door open and rushed in. The smile on her lips immediately turned into her signature wicked grin. With a flick of her right hand, the spotlight instantly focused on the two of them.
Hyacinth summoned its greatsword, shielding the bewildered iris behind it, ready for battle.
"Heart Moon Fox! Your days of causing chaos in the city at will are over!"
"Surrender!"
Su Tianqing paused for a few seconds, then casually picked up a large food stall chair from the makeshift stage at her feet.
"Hmph, if you want to catch me, then bring it on."
"But you know the rules."
The major stroke was a great success.
Glancing at the comments section where "The major ward has come here," Su Tianqing felt even better.
"...What are you talking about? What are you trying to achieve by causing trouble at the train station?!"
"Intentions? Hahahaha."
The golden fox chuckled softly, her charming smile startling the two of them.
"It seems you still don't know me well enough, Miss Hyacinth."
"Do villains need a reason to cause destruction?"
The world seemed to fall silent for a moment.
The next second, the station doors behind Iris Flower suddenly closed, all the spotlights went out at the same time, and the station was plunged into complete darkness!
A pair of huge, blood-red, ferocious eyes emerged from the darkness!
"Watch closely, Miss Hyacinth and Miss Iris."
The golden fox chuckled softly.
"I hope you have fun."
