NOVEL NEXT WORLD Chapter 57
Chapter Fifty-Seven: It’s Already Meaningless Now~~~
“Feiren is also very good. Although her imagination isn’t great on a daily basis, she always manages to come up with new moves during battles.”
Glancing at Feiren beside her, Pabi continued, “Moreover, both you sisters have strong control over your magical energy. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to bring your imaginations to life… It’s just that Feiren’s magical energy is too scarce, which is why her power falls short.”
“I-I’m sorry…”
Hearing this, Feiren instinctively lowered her head and said, “I’ve never been good at refining magical energy; it’s hard for me to find that feeling…”
Magical girls usually need to operate their magic cores to refine and produce magical energy within them. Mengyue and Xinghua both have a natural talent for refining magical energy, so they compress a lot of it into their cores. However, Feiren struggles with this.
Despite her difficulty in refining magical energy normally, Feiren suddenly starts refining it at lightning speed when faced with emergencies! This causes a sudden surge in her magical energy, allowing her to use powerful techniques!
However, the magic core acts like a container. Refining magical energy slowly is like pouring water into it gradually, making the core stronger over time. But each time Feiren refines magical energy, it’s like pouring a large amount quickly, damaging the core in the short term… there’s even a risk of the core shattering!
If the core shatters, losing a magical girl’s powers would be minor… the main issue is that the compressed magical energy would burst out, causing severe damage to the body!
“You can’t keep doing this; you can’t always refine magical energy during battles!”
Looking at her pale-faced younger sister, Xinghua said with concern, “Can’t you remember the feeling of refining magical energy during battles and apply it to your daily life?”
“Mmm… I’ve tried thinking about it!”
Feiren replied with a pained expression, “But I always forget the feeling from battles! In critical situations… it’s like I’m fighting on instinct!”
Fighting on instinct?
Hearing this, Pabi subconsciously glanced at the red magic core in Feiren’s chest, which remained unchanged.
“But you need to find a way to speed up the refinement of magical energy. Even after these two boosts, your total magical energy is still less than half of mine!”
Tapping Feiren’s forehead, Xinghua said helplessly, “Don’t you notice that the sneaky monster leader always prioritizes grabbing you as a shield? Can’t you give him a quick counterattack next time he grabs you?”
“I know! I’ll definitely try my best!”
Holding her forehead, Feiren said resolutely, “Because I don’t want to hold back my sister anymore!”
“Then let’s start training right now. I’ll cast a spell to help you focus, and you try to find the feeling of refining magical energy during battles.”
“I understand!”
Feiren immediately sat down cross-legged. Then Pabi waved her stuffed hand, enveloping Feiren in a light green membrane, making her appear more focused.
“Alright, let’s not disturb her for now.”
After casting the spell, Pabi turned to Xinghua and said, “Let’s move away. I have something to tell you.”
“Okay.”
Xinghua and Pabi walked far away, and then Pabi changed her tone from cute to cold, asking Xinghua, “What are you planning?”
“What do you mean?”
Blinking innocently, Xinghua said, “Lady Pabi, I don’t understand what you’re saying.”
“Don’t play dumb! How could someone like you go into battle with the monster leader for any good reason? I can feel your ill intentions!”
Staring directly at Xinghua, Pabi said coldly, “Tell me the real reason you plan to fight the monster leader!”
“Lady Pabi, while I don’t care much about other humans, isn’t it reasonable for me to want to kill the monster leader for my sister’s safety? Isn’t that a valid reason?”
Shrugging, Xinghua continued innocently, “Besides, my ill intentions are directed at the monster leader! Can’t you tell?”
“Hmph… Is that so?”
Pabi snorted, but Xinghua’s words slightly eased her suspicion. After all, Xinghua genuinely cares about her sister and might consider solving the monster leader first to protect her from future risks.
“That’s right! Even if I dislike you, I can’t ignore my sister’s safety!”
Staring directly at Pabi, Xinghua said honestly, “If you don’t believe me, you can follow me when I go!”
Do you think I don’t want to? I still don’t know how that monster leader got rid of one of my avatars! What if my current avatar gets destroyed again by that guy?
Pabi thought angrily. Although she has many avatars, they aren’t infinite, and creating one is quite taxing. So until she understands how the monster leader eliminated one of her avatars, she won’t send another one!
Indeed! That guy suffered a big loss last time from the monster leader. Based on his curses, he probably won’t want to contact the monster leader anytime soon!
“Rest assured!”
Seeing Pabi’s frustrated silence, Xinghua smiled and said, “I will definitely kill the monster leader for sure!”
“If you don’t come back, I’ll tell Feiren your secret.”
In the end, Pabi threatened Xinghua with this. Xinghua’s expression froze, then she smiled and replied, “Of course! With my abilities, even if I don’t kill him, I’m sure he won’t catch me!”
It’s not that I’m afraid of you being caught…
Glancing at Xinghua, Pabi moved on from this topic and said, “Good. Then let’s start your training.”
———————–
While Xinghua and Feiren were undergoing training, Baiyu was currently sketching a magic array on a work desk with a crystal pen…
Mengyue, lying lazily on the sofa, said, “The master was really merciless last night… He must have transferred the punishment from the torture room to the evening. But he doesn’t know that this is a form of reward for me… hehe~~~”
Swinging her legs, Mengyue was about to turn on the TV with the remote control. But then she noticed the empty coffee table and suddenly remembered the small iron box full of thank-you letters from her first day here.
“The master probably isn’t doing this solely for negative energy. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have carefully stored those letters in the iron box…”
Mengyue muttered as she turned on the TV, “Yesterday, he seemed to say that everything he does is just for collecting negative energy. What a peculiar person~~~”
But she liked this side of herself too! In fact, she had become hopelessly infatuated with the master.
Looking at the TV report about magical girls, Mengyue instinctively showed a disdainful expression. Occasionally, she would recall that she originally came here undercover for some mission, but now such trivial matters no longer held any significance~~~
