Chapter 427. Magical Girl!
“Good morning~ Ning Chu!”
No matter when, Yan Xinya always looked full of energy, like an endlessly energetic Husky.
She excitedly pounced over, her rosy cheeks pressing against Ning Chu’s, her tail wagging so vigorously it seemed to leave afterimages.
Ning Chu had a face full of despair, pressing down on the little face trying to cuddle up, helplessly sighing, “Stop it, I’m in a bad mood.”
“What happened?!”
She kicked the air a couple of times, “My shoes got wet; it’s so uncomfortable…”
Having just come out of winter, her frostbite hadn’t healed, and now with wet shoes, her feet felt icy and numb, putting her in a foul mood.
“Wen Yang! What’s wrong with you?!”
Wen Yang shook off the raindrops from his shoulders. When he heard Yan Xinya’s question, he could only smile bitterly, “She can’t help but splash around when she sees water. How can her shoes not get wet?”
“That’s so childish~”
“……”
Men remain boys at heart, okay! What’s wrong with being a little childish?
Even if she had become a Succubus, isn’t it normal to still harbor the spirit of youth?
Ning Chu didn’t explain, slumping down at her desk.
The damp chill of the return of the wet season felt worse than winter’s dry cold. Even though the temperature had hit over ten degrees, it still felt miserable.
She somewhat regretted wearing a cute knitted dress today instead of a thick down jacket.
Wen Yang casually hung his umbrella on the hook beside the desk, sat down next to Ning Chu, and quietly asked, “Can you check what kind of plot that girl across the hall is?”
“Why the rush? Are you looking forward to it?”
“Not really…”
Ning Chu shot him a glance, pulled out her phone, and opened an encrypted document to look it up.
The features of the girl who had just moved in across the hall were very distinct—poor red hair… so it didn’t take more than two minutes for Little Demoness’s face to turn pale, and she nervously looked up at Wen Yang.
“What’s wrong?”
“The situation isn’t good…”
Ning Chu swallowed, her face flushing with a bit of embarrassment. She immediately remembered something and turned to Lily and Yan Xinya sitting beside her, warning, “Don’t go out at night anymore! Go straight back to the dorm after class, don’t even go to the cafeteria!”
“Ah?”
The serious tone made Yan Xinya and Lily freeze for a moment.
“What’s wrong?”
“I heard there’s a pervert at school, it might be very dangerous at night!”
Lily remained cool as ever, while Yan Xinya’s tail and ears stood on end, warily glancing around, “Is that true?!”
The wolf girl had high combat power but was also very timid.
“Really! And he’s a violent murderer!”
“No way? The police haven’t caught him yet?”
She became even more anxious, hugging the petite and delicate Lily, trembling like a little puppy.
“It takes time; it won’t be that fast…”
Seeing that the scare tactics were working, Ning Chu finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Wen Yang, who was all curiosity.
“What’s up?”
She bit her lower lip, leaned in closer to Wen Yang’s ear, and said, “I found it. There’s just one red-haired girl in the book.”
“Hearing you say that, I think I recall a bit…”
“She’s a magical girl!”
Wen Yang froze, immediately associating it with the headless senior, but soon realized that this magical girl came from a small novel.
And coinciding with the magical girl was… a tentacle monster!
Can such fantastical creatures really exist in this world?
“Why did you even think of writing something like this?!”
Ning Chu’s face flushed visibly, her embarrassment overwhelming as she lowered her head and mumbled, “At that time, maybe my threshold was too high… I just liked to read things with heavy tastes.”
“After reading a lot, I wanted to write…”
She nervously patted Wen Yang’s back, “It’s okay; this is just a side story, it doesn’t involve you.”
This is bad!
How can this plot conclude just by pretending to be a side character?
Not to mention the jealousy issue with Wen Yang… I mean! Even magical girls can’t handle tentacle monsters! How is a little Succubus like her supposed to deal with it?!
The more Ning Chu thought about it, the more frantic she became. Even scarier, this side story didn’t have an ending at all!
That time when the heavy flavor XP lasted just a few days, she happily wrote a few segments, suddenly found training to be stimulating, and then abruptly abandoned the tentacle chapters, quickly shifting to writing a development diary.
Thus, Ning Chu had no idea whether the tentacle monster would continue lurking in the school to prey on girls or would be completely wiped out by the magical girl.
To be honest, it’s not unusual for a short novel to have no ending. It’s just that the male lead encounters one girl after another.
But who knew that such consequences would arise from abandoning a self-entertaining side story!
“Oh no, oh no…” Ning Chu covered her face, muttering in despair, “Why the hell did I write this—”
“You’ve complained about this enough times.”
“Why are you so calm about it?”
Wen Yang sighed, “What can I do… It’s better to think of a way calmly than to panic.”
“Ning Chu~ You weren’t trying to scare me on purpose, were you?”
Yan Xinya asked beside them, looking more worried as she watched Ning Chu and Wen Yang whispering, noticing their increasingly anxious expressions, stirring her own panic.
“Just make sure not to go out at night.”
Ning Chu could only remind her friends nearby first.
She held her phone, hesitating about whether to send a message in the class group to alert everyone.
Although the tentacle monster in the book doesn’t eat people, if you can withstand the tentacles and accept that kind of XP…
It was just the first class of the morning; it was best to clarify the situation first.
What if the tentacle monster hasn’t shown up yet?
Ning Chu hurriedly logged into the school forum, glanced at it quickly, feeling a bit relieved.
Fortunately, she didn’t see any victim posts, nor were there any rumors about ghosts haunting the school at night, just some trivial matters, even electing the school beauty spontaneously.
She clicked in to glance, her casual photos prominently displayed in the school beauty candidate section.
Then looking at the other candidates, these high–quality girls all seemed like supporting characters from those little novels, one to note down.
She spent the morning classes drowned in her worries…
Her shoes still felt icy cold and damp as Ning Chu held the umbrella, a troubled expression following Wen Yang out of the classroom.
After realizing that this university was the main stage for those little novels, she had been worried about the tentacle monster issue, yet was unable to avoid it and now she was bound to confront it.
Wen Yang looked at Ning Chu, hesitating to speak.
“What’s wrong?”
“Why do you have an umbrella too?”
“……”
Ning Chu finally noticed that Wen Yang also had a folding umbrella. Looking at the one in her hand, the color and appearance of both were identical, both didn’t know whose unlucky umbrella she had taken.
“No worries, I’ll ask again in the afternoon; the rain isn’t heavy anyway.”
She murmured, but her footsteps suddenly halted. With keen senses, she turned back, spotting a striking flash of red at the end of the hallway.
Is that the magical girl? The red hair is too conspicuous.
Ning Chu tilted her head in doubt.
Why is she coming to find me instead of the tentacle monster?!
