Chapter Ninety-Three: The Great Collapse of the Image of the Magical Girls!
“About your object of revenge, would you like to tell me in detail? After all, Meng Yue only knows roughly about your intention to seek revenge, she’s not clear about who specifically you want to take revenge on.”
At this moment, Bai Yu pressed a button on the remote control in his hand, and the dog-shaped mech suit on Xing Hua gradually disappeared, replaced by a small black square hanging in the center of her collar, as if the entire mech suit had been stored inside it.
After all, wearing a completely black dog-shaped mech suit was too unsettling for conversation. To create a better atmosphere for communication, Bai Yu even brought Xing Hua a chair, and they sat facing each other…
“Hmph… You don’t let me talk just because you’re not interested?”
Sitting on the chair dressed as a deadpool dog girl, Xing Hua sneered, “You could directly command me to speak. Wouldn’t that be better?”
“That’s true… You do suit that approach better.”
So, Bai Yu immediately adopted Xing Hua’s suggestion and said in a commanding tone, “Then I order you to reveal everything related to your revenge to your master!”
“Hmm~~~ This sounds much more comfortable, not so fake anymore~~~”
Lifting her chin, Xing Hua revealed a content expression, then she continued, “I want to take revenge on my biological parents, foster parents, and their family, as well as that hateful contract fairy, Pabi!”
“You and your younger sister were sold off by your biological parents, right?”
“Eh?”
Hearing Bai Yu’s words, Xing Hua asked in surprise, “I haven’t said much yet… How did you know?”
Bai Yu lightly said with his hands folded, “I can tell from the plot. After all, I’ve encountered quite a few similar situations.”
“Continue,” he added.
“If they really just sold us out of necessity because they couldn’t afford to raise us, I wouldn’t have such intense hatred towards them. But…”
Grinding her teeth, Xing Hua said sternly, “They didn’t have money because they were addicted to gambling, and when they lost, they took out their frustrations on me and Xiaonai, beating us up… Even making us beg on the streets…”
Bai Yu had heard such stories before, so he remained calm. He listened quietly as Xing Hua continued to pour out her grievances about her biological parents’ misdeeds…
She then talked about her foster parents who treated her like a servant, originally wanting to buy a boy but settling for her instead. They didn’t allow her to go to school and made her serve them every day. If she failed to satisfy them, she wouldn’t get food…
“After I escaped, they probably still haven’t given up looking for me.”
After a moment of silence, Xing Hua continued, “Then, I met Xiaonai quite luckily. Her foster parents weren’t kind to her either, so she ran away to find me… And we met in this city.”
“I see… So your hatred towards Pabi stems from its deceit and forcing you to protect people you don’t want to protect, right?”
“Exactly… It’s already good enough that I’m not causing trouble. I thought that since I found Xiaonai, I could live a peaceful life…”
Her tone filled with resentment, Xing Hua said fiercely, “That damn doll came and shattered all peace! It first gave me hope, making me think I could seek revenge, then shattered that hope! It threatened me with my weaknesses… And forced Xiaonai and me to become magical girls, disrupting our lives again!”
“I understand now, but there’s a problem here.”
At this moment, Bai Yu suddenly asked with great interest, “Taking revenge on your parents and foster parents isn’t difficult, but how do you plan to take revenge on Pabi? Even if you gain the power of a magic beast, you won’t be able to deal with it, right?”
“It has a physical form, doesn’t it? I—”
“No, no. The previous monster leaders spent years trying to find its physical form, and they never succeeded. Even if you could find and kill it, it would take a long time. Are you willing to wait that long?”
“I…”
Hearing Bai Yu’s words, Xing Hua felt a surge of frustration. She furrowed her brows and asked, “Do you mean to say that Mr. Monster Leader has a way to take revenge on it now?”
“Call me Master.”
“Master.”
Xing Hua replied without hesitation. She had called him ‘Master’ many times already, so it didn’t matter if she did it again…
“Here’s a secret: actually, Pabi cares a lot about the reputation and image of magical girls.”
So, Bai Yu said, “You must know that the monster organization collects negative energy. But Pabi is also doing something similar, collecting something akin to faith energy.”
“Faith energy?”
Xing Hua blinked, recalling her interactions with Pabi, which showed that it indeed cared deeply about the image and reputation of magical girls!
“It even has connections with the official organization, the Blue Star Knight Order, and uses official media to promote the positive image of magical girls.”
Bai Yu continued, “Therefore, it hates me, the monster leader, the most! Because what I do is supported by many people, and those supporters definitely wouldn’t like magical girls. If this trend continues, it will significantly impact the image of magical girls!”
“No wonder it always looks like it wants to kill you!”
At this moment, Xing Hua finally understood why Pabi always seemed like it wanted to tear down Bai Yu’s ancestral grave! Now it made sense… That’s why Pabi hated Bai Yu so much!
“After all, previous monster leaders mostly caused destruction, which Pabi loved. Magical girls defeating such monster leaders would receive full support from the public!”
Shaking his head, Bai Yu sighed, “But now… The monster organization eradicates criminal organizations, and then magical girls rescue criminals? Luckily, official media helps cover up the identities of the dead, or the image of magical girls would have been ruined long ago!”
“But you said so much…”
Furrowing her brows, Xing Hua asked confusedly, “What does this have to do with my revenge?”
“Lili, your brain is slow. Don’t you remember you are a magical girl too?”
To this, Bai Yu reminded with a smile, “Now, whether it’s Meng Yue or you, you can both transform back into magical girls. Think about it… If a magical girl turns into a monster or a magic beast in front of everyone, what enormous impact would that have on the image of magical girls?”
