Chapter 64 There's nothing to be afraid of anymore!
In five days, it will be the investiture ceremony in the magical kingdom.
To allow ample leeway, Arc Moon planned to travel to the country two days in advance, so it booked cross-border train tickets for departure three days later.
Today, the magical girl sent from the Magic Kingdom to replace Arc Moon and temporarily reside in Round Garden City also arrived.
Since her colleague had arrived, it was natural to hand over the defense duties to her. So, Arc Moon chose a private room in a restaurant and began her meeting with her colleague.
However, this time, Arc Moon brought Azure Phoenix with her as well.
Liu Xiali and Xie Lan are both still in junior high school. Bringing children to such a formal occasion that leans towards business is somewhat inappropriate. In contrast, although Qingluan looks young, she is indeed a composed adult.
Since it was a business meeting, both parties met in the private room as magical girls.
"Hello, hello! I am the magical girl stationed in Round Garden City, codenamed Crescent Moon."
Arc Moon introduced herself first. Then, she turned slightly to the side and introduced the blue-haired girl next to her.
"This is Qingluan, my junior magical girl."
Qingluan maintained her perfect maid demeanor, lifting her skirt and giving a graceful bow. "Hello, nice to meet you. Please take care of me."
Across from them, in the guest seat, sat a magical girl dressed in a very modern style.
Her hair was white on the outside but light pink on the inside, with a few pink highlights in her bangs. As for her costume, it was a JK uniform that was somewhat of a Gothic Lolita style.
"I am the magical girl Blooming Maple! No need to be so polite. For the next two weeks, leave the defense of Round Garden City to me!" The magical girl opposite quickly introduced herself as well.
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, everyone took their seats and ordered food, and then the three of them began to chat casually—
"Zhanfeng, is this your first time visiting our Yuanting Garden?"
"Yes," Zhanfeng nodded, "Actually, I arrived yesterday and toured the city. It's a peaceful and prosperous place! I can only say that under Miss Huyue's leadership, Yuanting City truly deserves its reputation as the formidable gateway to the material world!"
"Ah, you flatter me." Crescent Moon seemed a little smug. "Can you drink alcohol? Or juice?"
"Of course, it's wine! Let's have a big toast!" With that, Zhanfeng picked up his cup, turned around, and called to the waiter outside the door, "I won't stand on ceremony. Someone, bring a larger cup!"
Looking at the somewhat eccentric magical girl in front of her, Qingluan lowered her eyelids.
What's wrong with this thing?
"Truly, the wind follows the tiger, the clouds follow the dragon, and the magical girls soar through the heavens! You two are here, one a magical girl of benevolence, the other a magical girl of righteousness!"
Zhanfeng looked at Qingluan and Huyue, a satisfied look in his eyes. "With you two here, the future of the material world is bright!"
"Miss Zhanfeng...you're exaggerating a bit," Qingluan quickly interrupted her strange statement. "Anyway...let's talk about serious matters first. Like the situation with the crippled beasts, etc..."
"Oh, that makes sense." Zhanfeng nodded, then looked at Huyue. "Then I'll trouble you to explain it to me."
After listening, Arc Moon began her serious explanation as well.
"Uh... actually, the security here is pretty good. You're a Lei-level, right? The frequency of remnant beasts appearing in Yuanting isn't very high, and most of them are only egg-level and caterpillar-level remnant beasts. With your strength, dealing with them shouldn't be a problem."
"Of course, the beasts are a minor issue. The important thing is that there is a base called 'Where the Stars Are' on the outskirts of Round Garden City. They are an organization that opposes the magical kingdom, and it is worth noting that there are four Flower-level magical girls among the higher-ups of this organization."
"However, you don't need to worry too much. They usually won't make things too difficult for ordinary magical girls. If a situation like a metamorphosed beast breaks out in the Enchanted Garden, which you can't handle, you can even ask them for help. The Stars are quite responsible in protecting the material world cities."
Arc Moon kept talking, and Blooming Maple listened and nodded repeatedly.
"I never imagined Miss Arc Moon would have such courage! You truly are my Xiao Lu, Mo Ke, and Mu Baihe!"
Qingluan tilted her head slightly...
Is this a compliment?
However, it was quite a strange feeling to be listening to someone earnestly explaining to the new magical girl how to communicate with her subordinates.
And to be honest, I didn't expect that behind the scenes, the evaluation of the location of the star was more positive, which surprised Qingluan.
After the handover of work matters was discussed and settled, the atmosphere in the private room gradually relaxed.
Although Arc Moon had visited the kingdom several times before, this was her first time attending an award ceremony. Therefore, she couldn't help but ask this magical girl from the kingdom—
"Um, Zhanfeng... is there anything in the country that we need to pay special attention to?"
Upon hearing this question, Qingluan also became more attentive, her gaze falling on Zhanfeng's face.
Zhang Menglin had warned on the phone that something big was coming. I just don't know if there's already any sign of trouble in the country...
This is also the issue that Qingluan cares about most.
To be honest, it would be good to learn something from this magical girl. In case the situation is already critical, I can prepare in advance.
However, Zhanfeng was relaxed and carefree—
"There's nothing to be concerned about! The magical kingdom is currently more stable and peaceful than ever before! There's nothing to be afraid of!"
...? What the heck?
The person who says this usually ends up losing their head!
Unaware of what was happening, Arc Moon nodded thoughtfully, "Hmm...it seems not much different from when I went last time."
"You're just overthinking it!"
Zhanfeng rested her chin on one hand, looking completely at ease.
"Her Majesty the Queen is wise and powerful, and the High Scepters are also doing their best. The kingdom is a united front, and there is absolutely no way there could be any problems!"
…………
If I hadn't known that a riot was about to break out in the country, I probably would have believed it too...
After hearing Zhanfeng's answer, Huyue felt much more at ease: "I don't know why, but I had a bad feeling before. But what you said makes me feel much more at ease."
"Don't worry too much, have a good time in the country! I wish you all the best in your military endeavors! After this award ceremony, we'll meet again for a big meal!"
Zhanfeng raised his glass and celebrated with Huyue.
The Azure Phoenix standing to the side was completely speechless.
I have a feeling that this "Blooming Maple" has planted a bunch of flags on everyone.
Suddenly I don't really want to go to that country anymore...
