Urging for more updates, then turning into a magical girl.

Chapter 37 Magical Girl Qingluan

In the rest area of ​​the underground base.

Cheng Qi sat on the chair with his cheeks puffed out in anger, his arms crossed over his chest. His two short legs dangled slightly off the ground.

Maya stood behind her, gently massaging Cheng Qi's shoulders and the back of his neck, trying to calm the "Commander's" anger.

Finally, the Four Heavenly Kings released their leader and revealed their plan to brainwash her, which ultimately failed, as well as their experience of seeing her memories.

Fortunately... that memory observation could only display images and sounds, not people's inner thoughts, which prevented me from revealing my true intentions of lurking around Arc Moon.

As for the culprits of this incident—Mo Ranying and Luo Le—they stood in front of Cheng Qi with their hands on their thighs and their heads bowed, waiting for criticism.

Yao Xing, with a gloating smile, stood aside watching the show.

"You two!"

Cheng Qi put one hand on his hip and raised the other, pointing at Mo Ranying and Luo Le. However, this gesture wasn't very intimidating; it looked more like he was being coquettish.

"I'm the commander! You two actually tried to brainwash me and even looked into my memories?!"

"Basil! It's one thing if others don't know, but you definitely saw through my identity a long time ago! You did this on purpose, didn't you!"

"And you! Mo Ranying! You believe a few words from someone and you're already convinced?! Or did you already know all along, and you were just trying to brainwash me?"

Faced with Cheng Qi's harsh reprimand, Luo Le's eyes darted around, pretending to look at the scenery.

Mo Ran Ying, feeling guilty, shrank her neck and scratched her head sheepishly, trying to get away with it by being cute: "A Qi...hehe, I was wrong this time! You see, we didn't know you were really the Commander back then, we were just worried about you..."

Cheng Qi was speechless, but his anger continued to build up.

"Then why did you specifically go to Arc Moon's house to kidnap me? How did you manage to kidnap me and take me back there by sheer coincidence?"

"Uh... because the day you disappeared, Commander... the blue-haired girl also appeared at the base!" Basil quickly explained. "We originally thought... this blue-haired girl might know some inside information, so we wanted to kidnap her! I swear, at least at that time, we really didn't know your identity!"

"Hmph." Cheng Qi grunted and awkwardly turned his head to the side.

Seeing that the commander had calmed down considerably, Basil quickly changed the subject: "But speaking of which, I never imagined that you, Commander, had actually become a magical girl! Congratulations, truly congratulations!"

"Yeah, yeah! So it turns out... the result is actually pretty good." Maya chimed in.

Basil's interruption made Cheng Qi temporarily stop complaining.

Yes, I was actually recognized by the Seed of the Heart, and I even completed the awakening.

However, I still can't quite figure out the reason for my awakening. Could it be that my desire to urge the Grand Eunuch to update the story caused this power to erupt?

Yao Xing, who was standing to the side, stepped forward thoughtfully: "By the way, Commander, what is your magical girl code name?"

"Code name?"

"That's right." Yao Xing nodded and explained, "The moment you establish a connection with the Seed of Heart and awaken, your magical girl code name will appear in your heart. And among us magical girls, we usually address each other by our code names."

Cheng Qi pondered for a moment.

To be honest, at the moment I completed the transformation, a name did indeed surface in the depths of my mind.

"...Azure Phoenix."

Cheng Qi blurted it out.

"A blue phoenix?"

Everyone present was savoring the name.

"Hmm...a wonderful name, it suits your cool yet adorable appearance perfectly!" Yao Xing quickly complimented.

"Yes, yes, our Lady Qingluan!" Mo Ranying's eyes also lit up.

"Alright, let's end this small talk here." Qingluan jumped off the chair. "Now that the misunderstanding is cleared up, and there are no more problems, I'll head back to Huyue."

These words immediately turned the previously relaxed atmosphere heavy.

The four magical girls' eyes were filled with wariness and jealousy.

Basil spoke first: "Commander... are you really that concerned about that crescent moon?"

"That's right! And the other side is our enemy!" Mo Ran Ying exclaimed anxiously.

Qingluan waved her hand, signaling to stop talking:

"I know what you're worried about, but there are many things I have to do myself! The magical girl Arc Moon's strength is worth my personal involvement; this sacrifice is nothing."

Most importantly... if I didn't keep an eye on her while she was writing, I don't know when the novel would ever be finished!

This is absolutely intolerable!

After saying that, Qingluan turned around and strode towards the main gate.

"Swish! Swish! Swish! ———"

Yao Xing, Mo Ran Ying, and Luo Le suddenly appeared in a flash. Before Qing Luan could react, they had already surrounded her, blocking her way.

A sense of foreboding welled up in Qingluan's heart: "What...what do you want to do?"

"Commander... we've missed you so much these past few days..." Mo Ranying's cheeks flushed as she took a step closer.

"Since you've already become such a cute girl, and even a magical girl..." Yao Xing couldn't help but let out a lewd smile.

"How can we just let that wild woman named Arc Moon get away with this?" Basil fanned the flames from the side.

The three men pressed closer, extending their menacing claws. The crowd's eyes gleamed like hungry wolves eyeing a rabbit, and a trickle of liquid oozed from their mouths.

"Hey! Don't do anything rash! I'm the commander! This is an order...!"

Seeing that her intimidation was completely ineffective, Qingluan was terrified and quickly turned her head to look for help at the honest man who had been silently serving her from behind.

"Mayo! Help me!"

However, Maya slowly raised her head, her eyes filled with barely suppressed excitement:

"Senior...I'm sorry."

Maya's voice trembled as she swallowed hard.

"Seeing you like this... I... I couldn't help myself."

"???"

What, you too...?

"Qingluan, don't worry, magical girls have very strong bodies and can withstand the torment of the four of us."

"Aqi, we clearly said we were your wings, yet you still went to find other women..."

"Commander, you've gone to such lengths to become like this... it's simply unfair..."

"Senior... um... you already did 'that' with Sakura-senpai... I... I want it too!"

"Hey, hey, hey——"
