Transform into a magical girl after getting off work

"What are you talking about? A Magical Girl?"

Grasping a specially made communication device, the black-robed man with braids furrowed his brow and spoke with ill humor, "It seems I must remind you to make use of that stiff brain of yours as it's supposed to function: there's a barrier outside right now, making it impossible for a Magical Girl to break through. Or are you trying to say it was that blue brat who's suspected to be at the leaf stage? Do you really think she could come here?"

After his words ended, the voice on the other side of the call buzzed for a while, adding to his surprise, "A Magical Girl sprung up within the barrier? You mean, you saw a Fairy? Why would there be a Fairy here?"

As the person on the phone continued to speak, his expression grew progressively darker and the grip on his communication device tightened until, as if he could no longer bear to listen, he abruptly hung up.

Stowing the communication device inside his robe, he started to pace in place, walking back and forth anxiously.

He seemed as if he desperately wanted to remain calm, but no matter what, he couldn't maintain his composure; the news from the phone agitated him so profoundly that he finally punched the wall beside him.

"The intended ritual sacrifice turned into a Magical Girl? This is not some kind of amusing joke."

He glared with wide eyes and murmured with his head buried low.

After a pause, and once he had calmed down a bit, he waved at the black-robed people by the door and gestured to the office desk behind him, "All of you, come in and watch over the esteemed Miss Liu. Don't let her do anything that would be disadvantageous for us all."

After speaking, he glanced backward at Liu Wenqin to make sure she wasn't making any superfluous movements, then turned and strode briskly out of the office, facing the others.

Since he now knew his destination - the location of the one-eyed girl - there was no need for him to waste any more time bickering with Liu Wenqin.

Guarding her was a task for his subordinates.

…

…

Bai Jingxuan had become a Magical Girl.

In a moment of urgency, after revealing her determination to Mork and picking up the Seed of Heart, she had managed to transform after a brief teaching session, albeit still somewhat confused.

The code name she received was "Bo Xue".

Having successfully acquired the power of a Magical Girl, she rushed without delay to the floor where the magic power fluctuations were most intense, finding Tian Sheng who was in a desperate battle against an enemy.

Seeing that Tian Sheng was at a significant disadvantage and might even lose his life if she were any later, she intervened in the battle without hesitation.

This was her first encounter with the so-called magic world in her life.

The power of a Magical Girl was regarded as a dimensionally reductive strike against worldly magicians; in terms of the total and quality of Magic Power, and even the physical capabilities post-transformation, she far exceeded ordinary humans.

The three stages of a magician's strength: Peeking, Contacting, Mastering. Each stage is a leap in power for the magician, but, even for the highest-level controllers, it is impossible to match a Magical Girl.

So when Bai Jingxuan joined the battle, the outcome was already determined.

The two black-robed men had many Spell Techniques at their disposal. According to Tian Sheng's estimate, they were likely skilled practitioners at the Contacting stage; they were equipped with a variety of energy-based and fundamental Spell Techniques, and they even prepared soul-attacking spells targeting the spirit. But to Bai Jingxuan, who had become a Magical Girl, all these were meaningless.

The gap in absolute Magic Power and Soul Power could not be bridged by any technique.

As a new Magical Girl born mere minutes before, Bai Jingxuan hadn't even mastered the four basic capabilities of her kind, and she had no complete concept of the extent of her abilities. She couldn't speak of fine-tuning her powers, if she could use them correctly, it would be considered a swift mastery.

When she tried to gather her Magic Power to launch an attack, she couldn't control it at all. She had just concentrated the Magic Power at the tip of her Magic Wand when it suddenly dispersed, exploding into a burst of pale green fireworks.

Even so, when she roughly released a vast amount of Magic Power all around her, it produced an effect similar to interference waves: she used Magic Power far surpassing her opponents to scatter the structure of their Spell Techniques, erasing them into nothingness.

This left the robed figures momentarily stunned.

Bai Jingxuan was quick to change her approach. Realizing she wasn't good with Magic Power-related abilities, she simply put them aside, waved her Magic Wand, and knocked out several robed figures with close combat, easily ending the battle.

Having dealt with the enemy and saved Tian Sheng, the urgency of the situation finally began to ease.

Of course, they had only dealt with a few robed figures, the crisis was far from over.

After a brief rest and discussion, it was Tian Sheng who took the initiative to propose that the two, along with Fairy, turn direction and head toward the outskirts of the orphanage.

According to Tian Sheng, he felt that the priority was to break through the outer Barrier Spell Formula, clear a path for escape, get timely assistance from the outside world, and prepare for the next step of rescuing the mass within the orphanage.

He knew the basic principles of the Barrier Spell Formula, and the only reason he couldn't get through it before was due to insufficient Magic Power, but now it was different—they had a powerful source of Magic Power: a Magical Girl.

With him identifying the breakthrough points and Bai Jingxuan outputting Magic Power, they stood a great chance of breaking the barrier.

However,

"Cough cough... You're Bai Jingxuan, right?"

Being flown through the air by Bai Jingxuan, Tian Sheng, holding his abdomen, said, "What exactly happened after you escaped, how did you become a Magical Girl?"

Until the moment he spoke the word, he still found it somewhat unbelievable.

For most Magicians, the term "Magical Girl" was like a mountain looming over them, almost insurmountable throughout their lives.

After all, in comparison to the power of a Magical Girl, their efforts seemed like a joke.

Years, decades of painstakingly accumulating Magic Power, studying Spell Techniques, only to find they couldn't match up even to the weakest Magical Girl. Knowing this would make anyone feel envious or jealous, followed by a profound sense of helplessness.

The criteria for selecting Magical Girls in the Magic Kingdom are quite rigorous; the Fairies always find girls who are both exceptionally talented in Magic Power and Soul Power, and who would also be quite capable if they pursued the path of a Magician.

Their naturally high talent for Magic Power, coupled with the extraordinary Magic Power brought by the Seed of Heart, ultimately creates a professional magic user who surpasses Magicians on all dimensions—the Magical Girl.

The only comfort for Magicians is that if there are very few of themselves, then Magical Girls are even rarer, and they mostly stay active within the circles associated with the Magic Kingdom, rarely coming into direct contact with Magicians.

They are seen as outside the norm, and even as non-existent; this is the attitude of most Magicians toward Magical Girls.

Now, Tian Sheng had seen a Magical Girl with his own eyes, and what was more extraordinary was that the other party was an acquaintance he had known before.

And to think that just a while ago, Bai Jingxuan was a child in need of his rescue, and now, had become a Magical Girl with far more power than himself, even defeating enemies in seconds, which understandably gave him mixed feelings.
