Transform into a magical girl after getting off work-Chapter 435 - 82 Semi

"Location... complete, circuit... normal, magic power... sufficient."

The faint voice resembling a murmur arose at the peak, where a petite Black Cat Fairy was squatting on a towering stone tower, constantly touching the engravings on the tower with its paws, apparently checking something.

It wagged its tail, its pupils in the vertical eyes flickering with a sharp intelligence. Dark magic particles dispersed around its body, making its already inconspicuous form even more concealed.

"...almost finished."

Eventually, it came to this conclusion.

The ritual to destroy the city’s protective net was ready, and for it, the next steps were much easier than the preparation; all it had to do was to channel external magic power and shatter the protective net above.

Being a Fairy that didn’t need to adhere to human morals, it felt no psychological burden about the "shattering of the protective net" possibly causing a disaster.

It glanced at the middle of the mountain, where red-black magic power still flickered with glowing blue and orange-yellow, occasionally accompanied by strange noises. It nodded and muttered, "Although Yian always talks about backing out, she never slacks off in her work."

"Well, since she’s held on for so long, I should also hurry up and finish my job."

Bowing its head, it stared at the patterns on the stone tower and spoke to no one in particular: "...blame me if you must, but I’m just a bad fairy."

Saying this, an unusual fluctuation of magic power surged around it.

Just at that moment, before it could officially start the ritual, a streak of pale flames whooshed past its side.

— "Stop right there!"

"Meow!"

The sudden attack and shout startled Semi, and it didn’t even care about the few singed hairs on its body, immediately leaping off the stone tower to the ground.

After landing, it quickly rolled twice to extinguish the fire on its body and then stood up quite annoyed: "Who is it! Such a lack of manners!"

Before it could speak further, with a "whoosh whoosh whoosh" of flashing lights, a group of Magical Girls of various forms had already landed in front of it.

It widened its eyes and casually counted, only to find that there were indeed six Magical Girls standing before it.

"Stop what you’re doing right now and surrender! Otherwise, don’t blame us for using force!"

The leading sky-blue-colored Magical Girl didn’t respond to Semi’s complaints but solemnly declared, "If you have any other accomplices, call them out now. This is your final ultimatum!"

She declared righteously, as if an embodiment of justice. After declaring loudly, she then looked down to confirm what her adversary looked like.

But she soon realized that there was no one in front of her anymore.

Looking towards the distance, she saw only a thin shadow dart between the trees and shrubs, already fleeing towards the direction of the cliffs.

"It escaped!" exclaimed Mu Baihe beside her.

"Chase it!" Lin Xiaolu, behind her, had already grabbed her magic wand and dashed forward.

"Wait, I think we should first find out what that strange device over there is actually for..." Bai Ji tried hard to stop the two hotheads, but her efforts were a bit too late; they had already dashed out after shouting.

After a chaotic scramble, two more Magical Girls, realizing what was happening, took flight and joined the fray, creating a messy rush toward the action. As a result, only Bai Ji and Xia Liang remained back, not hastily pursuing.

She silently turned her head and exchanged a glance with Xia Liang, the only response she got was a shrugging gesture and a helpless smile. Thus, they could only sigh at each other.

All these events were unbeknownst to Semi, who was dashing through the bushes at that moment.

As it ran frantically, it cursed Yian and her ancestors in its mind, while deeply regretting that it had praised her for "solid work without discount" just minutes earlier.

"Nine people came, and six got through to me?"

If it wasn’t clear that Yian wasn’t a deep thinker, Semi would have suspected this was a plot to have others indirectly eliminate it—was this a number it could handle? Your journey continues at novelbuddy

Yet, as it ran wildly for a while, it gradually calmed down. Once it was sure the noise behind it had significantly decreased, it couldn’t help but stop.

Because it knew that it couldn’t just run away like this.

The stone tower prepared for the ritual was still left behind. Although the Magical Girls might not know the tower was key to the ritual, one couldn’t guarantee someone wouldn’t figure it out.

And Yian was still fighting the remaining three Magical Girls in the forest. Judging by the magical power fluctuations from the forest, they were probably the strongest individuals among the group of Magical Girls, meaning the others were still buying time for its actions.

If it just ran away and left the stone tower to those Magical Girls, allowing them to destroy it, then even if it survived, the mission would still be doomed to fail, and even Yian might not escape, ending up losing both a wife and soldiers.

In that case, the leader would be extremely displeased. Once the leader assigned blame, it would be fully responsible, and the impending punishment and discipline would be quite harsh.

And with the thought of possible punishment by the leader...

Semi silently turned around, looking back in the direction it had come from.
