NOVEL NEXT Chapter 13
Chapter 13: Keep Him as a Pet!
At this moment, Meng Yue’s mood was quite complicated. Last week, she had inadvertently saved two scoundrels with just a casual move?
Although the duty of a magical girl is to protect humans, no normal person would feel happy protecting two worthless individuals! Even if she had to fulfill her duty, she didn’t feel good about it…
Thinking about it, Meng Yue subconsciously rubbed Bai Yu’s chin to show her guilt.
Logically speaking, there was nothing wrong with her preventing monsters from entering human residential areas! After all, who knows what the Monster Organization was up to? Meng Yue shouldn’t feel guilty at all, but inexplicably, she felt guilty toward Bai Yu.
After rubbing for a while, Meng Yue realized something was amiss! As a magical girl, she hadn’t done anything wrong, so why should she feel guilty towards a monster leader?
However… This guy turned out to be pretty decent! He didn’t need to lie to the supposedly foolish version of herself, so at least the contract fairy was partly mistaken. Bai Yu wasn’t attacking the villains due to some conspiracy; he simply wanted to send those villains to their deaths!
In an instant, Meng Yue’s heart softened considerably. Originally, she was purely helpless when held by Bai Yu, even though her body didn’t show it, her heart was very uncomfortable! But now, not only her body, but her mood also relaxed…
He wasn’t as bad as imagined! I wonder why the contract fairy is so wary of him? After all, the contract fairy always hopes Bai Yu would die right then and there, could they have some grudge?
Decided! Although she will eventually destroy the monster organization, she can spare this guy’s life! If Bai Yu is willing to swear allegiance to her, she could also protect him from the contract fairy and other magical girls!
She’ll keep him as a pet privately, retaliating in kind… Repaying the time he made me act like a pet!
Meng Yue clenched her fist, thinking secretly! With such mental preparation, even if Bai Yu touched her head, put a collar and cat ears on her, and made her imitate a cat’s meow and crawl, she didn’t feel any psychological burden! After all, she would retaliate tenfold later, so what if she enjoyed it for a few days now?
Monster Leader, enjoy your last good days! When you’re locked in the basement, will you regret your actions these days?

Meanwhile, in a common rental house in Starry Sky City, two girls were looking at each other.
“Sister! Please don’t be lazy anymore! Meng Yue sister has disappeared, so the responsibility to protect Starry Sky City will fall on us!”
One of the girls said, “Before, since Meng Yue sister could easily handle the enemies, I didn’t say much. But now—”
“I don’t understand what you’re saying.”
To this, the other girl innocently replied from the sofa, “I’ve been fighting hard, Xiao Nai, how can you slander me?”
Clearly, one of the girls was Magical Girl Xing Hua, and the other was Fei Ren. They were actual biological sisters. Strictly speaking, in this three-person team, only Meng Yue was an outsider.
Xing Hua’s appearance and figure didn’t change much before and after transforming. Only her facial features and aura differed slightly. Before transforming, she had brown long hair, and after transforming, her hair turned golden.
The difference between Meng Yue before and after transformation was even smaller. Not to mention appearance and figure, even her hair color was silver-white before transformation, but her eyes were blue before and turned gold-red after.
Fei Ren had the biggest change! After transforming, she became a tall, graceful young lady with red long hair! However, after reverting, Fei Ren turned into a petite girl. Though she tried to regain her imposing demeanor by crossing her arms, it didn’t work well…
“Sister! I know!”
Looking at her sister, Fei Ren said with a bitter tone, “Actually, you have strength comparable to Meng Yue sister! You both are magical girls, but you’re much stronger than me…”
“What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”
Xing Hua remained expressionless and continued playing with her phone without looking up, “Our strength isn’t much different, we’re both overshadowed by Meng Yue sister…”
“I once saw you save a dog, killing a magic beast with a power rivaling a White Horse cadre—”
“Wait! How did you know about that?!”
Hearing this, Xing Hua immediately stood up, dropping her phone and shooting a sharp glance at Fei Ren! Her reaction was completely different from her usual taciturn demeanor!
“What’s wrong?”
Seeing her sister like this, Fei Ren involuntarily stammered, as she rarely saw her sister so emotional! Xing Hua then loudly said, “That means you were there… You saw the dog being eaten by the magic beast and did nothing! Ling Nai, do you still have any compassion?!”
“I… No!”
Seeing Xing Hua’s stern face, Fei Ren hurriedly explained, “Of course, I wanted to save it! But you were faster than me… By the time I transformed, you had already finished the battle! So… That’s when I realized the gap in our strength.”
“Oh, is that so?”
Listening to Fei Ren’s explanation, Xing Hua’s expression softened. She sat back on the sofa and calmly said, “Yes, my magical energy is naturally extraordinary. Although my magical energy characteristics aren’t as good as Meng Yue’s, I can make up for the gap with sheer volume. But… so what?”
“So what? What do you mean by so what?”
Hearing Xing Hua’s calm words, Fei Ren immediately became anxious, “If you had gone all-out in the morning, those two might not have died! Those were lives—”
“Correction, they were two beings.”
But before Fei Ren could finish, Xing Hua interrupted with a frown, “They should have died long ago.”
“Huh?”
Xing Hua’s words stunned Fei Ren, who couldn’t understand, “What do you mean? Do you know those two?”
“You know my magical energy characteristics,”
Xing Hua explained, “I saw the scene inside the abandoned warehouse, and I recognized those two.”
Meng Yue’s magical energy effect was [Purification], while Xing Hua’s magical energy effect was [Penetration]. Not only was her magical energy highly penetrating in attacks, but if she infused her magical energy into her eyes, she could gain the ability to see through walls.
Thus, she clearly knew their appearances and what they suffered. Yet, despite seeing them tortured, Xing Hua remained indifferent outside the warehouse, making Fei Ren even more confused!
“But sister… Regardless of what they did, they are still human!”
However, Fei Ren said seriously, “Human affairs shouldn’t be handled by monsters! Even if they were evil, they should be dealt with through proper channels, not left to monsters to torture them cruelly!”
“Are these your own thoughts?”
Looking at her sister’s serious expression, Xing Hua asked, “Or did that white rag doll tell you to say this?”
“It was Parbi who told me! But I think so too! Maybe you’re right, these two were evil people. But next time? The time after? Can you guarantee that every attack by the monster organization targets evil people? And even if they are evil, it’s not up to monsters to execute them—”
“So after all this, you just want me to reveal my strength?”
Listening to her sister’s incessant chatter, Xing Hua felt a bit annoyed. She scratched her head and irritably replied, “But I just don’t have the motivation! Besides, who says magical girls must go all-out in battle?”
