Starting from a Magical Girl, Dominating Eternity

Chapter 360 - 120: The Principles of a Magical Girl

If Shuāng Shēng hadn’t already been captivated by Bingtang and the Sect Master, he might have really been moved by him within three days.

At that time, if he gets beaten to a pulp, Shuāng Shēng would definitely cover your remains on the seventh day!

...

"Senior Peony, are we really okay vacationing here?"

By the beach, in the resort.

Under a big umbrella, Peony had changed into vacation attire and was lounging comfortably on a chair. Next to her was a glass of orange cold drink, with a slice of lemon attached, and sunglasses perched on her forehead. With her eyes slightly squinted, Peony looked as relaxed as one could be.

But the red-haired girl sitting opposite her, wearing casual-style short sleeves, clearly wasn’t as at ease. After asking once, she asked again, "Weren’t we supposed to cooperate with the General Bureau’s Magical Girl this time? Is it really okay to do nothing?"

"Relax, relax."

Peony waved her hand, then took a sip from her drink, letting out a satisfying sigh, "You’re still too young, An Shiyu. In the Disaster Strategy Bureau, you need to understand two things."

"First, Magical Girls are free. Even if you don’t work in the Disaster Strategy Bureau, no one can dock your pay, especially since we’re short on Magical Girls in Beihai, even less to worry about."

"Second, truly urgent and important work will never be assigned to us half-baked or newbies. The work arranged for us is bound to be insignificant, so drag it out if you can. Give them the impression that we’re hard to use, and naturally, they won’t include you in important work later, allowing us to earn our pay, while they can find competent Magical Girls. It won’t delay things, and everyone gets what they need, a perfect solution."

Ever since Iris left, Peony continuously worked overtime, and finally got a job like a paid vacation, bringing An Shiyu to support the General Bureau’s work.

Heh, Peony isn’t even a combat-specialized Magical Girl, and An Shiyu just entered the Disaster Strategy Bureau as a Budding Magical Girl.

They can’t help in combat.

Mainly just helping to maintain order, isn’t this just a pure vacation?

The resort they were at was considerably far from the Heart Image Remains. Although they could see it, they were essentially in a safe zone, so the resort was still open, and even some residents and tourists hadn’t been forcibly dispersed.

It’s just that the General Bureau had already publicized the danger of the Heart Image Remains, so there were very few people left.

No one would even disturb them, it was practically more enjoyable than the last paid vacation!

The only trouble was the little girl An Shiyu beside her, who was anxiously nagging...

Thinking of this, Peony felt she should properly educate this newbie beside her, letting her know what Beihai Disaster Strategy Bureau bullying means.

"An Shiyu, do you know the greatest pain in a Magical Girl’s life?"

The girl tilted her head, "Uh... losing the ability to transform?"

"Wrong, it’s having the ability to transform but no longer being a girl!"

An Shiyu blinked, seemingly unable to understand, but Peony sighed deeply, "A 21-year-old Magical Girl can no longer be called a ’girl’, you know what those Cyan Cloud Sect kids call me?"

"Magic Granny! Magic Aunt!" Peony gritted her teeth fiercely.

An Shiyu immediately consoled her, "21 is still very young, Senior Peony should have confidence."

"A senior in the Disaster Strategy Bureau once said, 21 is already the middle age of a Magical Girl’s life. That senior said, before reaching middle age, ten things must be accomplished in a Magical Girl’s life—"

Looking up at the helicopter, the girl quietly said, "Must you talk about this now?"

Peony raised her fingers and listed, "First, date His Highness the Prince."

"Second, have ten suitors."

"Third, be gifted a deposit of thirty million."

"Fourth, enter the top ten in the Disaster Beast hunting score rankings."

"Fifth, lose your head once."

"Sixth, beat the Hatcher."

"Seventh, have a complete family."

"Eighth, participate in the Southern China Magical Girl Grand Prix [Eternal Magic Limbo]."

"Ninth, overcome cosmic foes with various seniors."

"Tenth, become a salary thief at the Disaster Strategy Bureau."

"If a Magical Girl doesn’t enjoy her youth and achieve these ’Magical Girl life’ accomplishments, her life as a Magical Girl will be a failure by middle age. Don’t look at me now, I’m just trying to make up for these experiences. The day-to-day of the Disaster Strategy Bureau ruined me. A childhood regret of a Magical Girl takes a lifetime to make up for!"

After listening for a while, An Shiyu, a bit dazed, only said:

"But Miss Peony, wouldn’t this make you the first Magical Girl to be optimized away?"

This comment made Peony shiver a little, glancing at An Shiyu, who sat with a duck-legged posture, "Don’t talk about optimization!"

Her teaching job had been quit, and her current source of income was just the Disaster Strategy Bureau.

If she were truly optimized away, wouldn’t she have to rely on the northwest wind?

Places like Cyan Cloud Sect couldn’t possibly want her, seeing the Cyan Cloud Sect Magical Girls as strong and capable.

Peony knew that place absolutely didn’t suit her.

The Disaster Strategy Bureau allowed her to slack off comfortably, unlike Cyan Cloud Sect where it surely wouldn’t be possible.

If she really got optimized, Peony would have to livestream her transformation as a Magical Girl to beg...

"We should still be careful, Senior Peony, I heard a lot from the Witch Association are here too, we might run into danger if we’re not cautious..."

"Don’t worry, don’t worry."

As she said this, she saw a helicopter flying from a distance, pulling a huge banner with bold text:

[Beihai Disaster Strategy Bureau’s strongest Magical Girl Iris is here! Witch Association, prepare to meet your end!]

Peony pointed over there and laughed, "See, if the sky falls, the General Bureau’s strongest Magical Girl can handle it. No need for a small fry like you to worry, just enjoy your vacation..."

Before she finished speaking, a shadow flashed over the helicopter.

The helicopter, previously flying, and the huge banner along with it, were both cut in half, quickly trailing smoke and plummeting into the sea!

"Ah, the sky has fallen..."

An Shiyu blankly said, "The strongest Magical Girl didn’t seem to make it, Senior."
