Magical Girl Heavy Dependence

Chapter 101, I will prove it to the producer!

Zheng—

A crisp sword cry tore through the air, and azure sword light flashed across the sky like lightning.

The fleeing demon let out a desperate scream, his weapon snapping in two instantly. His massive body flew backward, crashing heavily onto a nearby shelf and scattering debris across the floor.

As the blue magical girl slowly approached, he collapsed to the ground in despair, trembling with terror, tears mixed with snot streaming down his distorted face.

"Please! Don't kill me... Take whatever you want, I'll do anything you ask!"

The blue magical girl, her wrist slightly drooping and the tip of her sword pointing diagonally at the ground, walked towards him step by step.

"No... I'm sorry, I was wrong, please spare my life! I've never done anything wrong. I really just came out to buy groceries today. I have a wife and children at home, I don't want to die!" the demon begged desperately.

However, the blue magical girl standing in front of him ignored him.

Her flawless, exquisite face was expressionless; her empty, unfocused eyes stared elsewhere as she casually swung her sword.

puff!

The sword pierced my heart.

But she didn't stop; instead, she drew her sword and numbly stabbed down again.

puff!puff!

"...Why is that? When my brother gets into trouble, why doesn't he talk to me first? Why does his first reaction go to that shameless woman? Is it because I didn't smash that blonde bitch's face?"

"Does my brother not trust me? Does he still treat me like a child? All those things he says to me are just to comfort me, to soothe me... Tell me, am I just too useless?"

He spoke softly to himself in a pale, blue voice.

The only person in front of her who could clearly hear these muttered words had already had his chest riddled with holes, and only desperate hoarse sounds remained in his throat.

"No, brother, it's enough if you only love me."

"You can discuss anything with me, and you can ask me for help with any difficulties. Don't think about other messy women. I'm enough for you, brother. As long as you ask, I'm willing to do anything. Whether it's becoming an idol or a wife, I'll do my best."

"I am the most suitable woman for my brother. I love you more than all those other random women."

Accompanied by the last half of a gentle murmur, another ruthless stab followed.

The demon beneath their feet had completely stopped breathing, leaving only its eyes still wide open in death.

Cang Qing suddenly realized what was happening.

With a deft twist of his wrist, pure cyan magical light flowed from the hilt to the tip of the sword, washing away the bloodstains.

She sheathed her sword, and the surrounding silence immediately erupted into a frenzied cheer.

"Azure! We won!"

"Long live Lord Cangqing!"

"Miss Cangqing, we respect your teeth!"

The people who had just hidden away, still shaken, appeared and surrounded her, calling out her name loudly.

This is a shopping mall.

An evil demon broke in, intending to wreak havoc, but the righteous magical girl "Azure" happened to be passing by and stopped him before he could do something irreversible.

Cang Qing is a hero; she saved everyone in the mall.

Thank you everyone.

The blue magical girl smiled sweetly, her eyes crinkling at the corners, and waved enthusiastically to everyone who had gathered around her.

Female fans wanted to take photos with her, little fans wanted autographs, and male fans shouted "Mom!" There were countless flashes and cameras, but she handled them all calmly.

"Didn't Cang Qing debut as an idol? He's still attacking demons."

"Even when she's not working, she doesn't forget her original aspirations. Isn't Miss Cang Qing a true champion of justice? Yincheng would never find another magical girl more kind than her!"

"She's so amazing and so cute, it's just too unfair!"

"..."

Zhong Ai returned to the Seventh Academy.

Unsurprisingly, the video and discussion about her heroic rescue today topped the trending searches on major platforms.

She walked along the school path dressed in her brother's favorite "good girl" outfit, her head slightly lowered as she looked at the overwhelming comments praising her on her phone screen, two shallow and charming dimples appearing on her cheeks.

Using his own verified idol account, he humbly replied to a comment that read, "Lord Cangqing is the hero of Yincheng":

[I'm not a hero, I just hope everyone stays safe and sound. The real heroes are those who work hard every day to make a living and never give up!]

Soon, the number of likes and comments exceeded 999+, and she smiled with satisfaction.

"If I do that, my brother will definitely praise me a lot, hehe!"

Justice? Hero? Idol?

Nothing compares to her brother patting her head and saying "Well done!"

Suddenly, an item trending on the dance party's hot search list caught Zhong Ai's eye.

She tapped the screen and saw the challenge letter signed with her real name.

"Tsk."

Her sweet smile vanished as she stared at the photo accompanying the challenge letter.

Zhong Ai's eyes were as cold as ice, and she murmured in a whisper, "She's like a persistent ghost..."

Why? Why do you have to be so interested in someone else's brother?

Now that my brother belongs to me, any eyesores should find a secluded corner and obediently disappear!

She clicked on that blog post and saw the first comment.

[Praise the sun (someone you follow): Keep it up!]

Click!

The girl's slender fingers suddenly exerted force, and the phone screen cracked.

That was Cheng Chen's private account.

Why?

Zhong Ai's breathing became rapid, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Why didn't my brother call to praise me right away when I did something good? Instead, he went to this person's comment section to leave a message for her!

Why didn't my brother scold her for my sake? Instead, he encouraged her. Was there something I didn't do well enough?

Zhong Ai stood frozen for almost five minutes before slowly raising her head.

At this moment, all that remained in my eyes was a chilling aura.

"No, it's not my brother's fault..." the girl murmured to herself. "It's all her fault, it's all her fault for being so hung up on my brother."

As he spoke, a weary sigh came from behind him.

"Phew... I'm exhausted."

Zhong Ai turned around and her eyes met Yan Xi's as he sighed. The moment they recognized each other, their expressions turned cold.

Yan Xi, who had been leaning against the tree trunk in a completely unladylike manner, straightened up again and calmly asked, "What are you looking at?"

"clown."

With no one else around, Zhong Ai didn't even bother with formalities, giving her a disdainful glance before walking away.

"etc!"

Before she could take a step, Yan Xi called her back.

Zhong Ai turned her head slightly in impatience, only to see Yan Xi staring intently at her without flinching.

"Have you seen the news trending on social media?" Yan Xi asked.

Zhong Ai remained silent, her face cold.

Yan Xi took a deep breath and continued, "Although it was just a company arrangement and not my idea, the contents of the document still stand."

"So, E-Ya, what are you trying to say?"

Zhong Ai finally turned around completely.

Yan Xi suddenly stretched out his right hand and clenched it into a fist in front of her.

"I will defeat you, Azure."

The girl's voice was resolute: "I will prove to the producer that his hard work and dedication to me have not been in vain! Even a magical girl like me can shine brightly on stage!"

"..."

Zhong Ai frowned almost imperceptibly, a surge of irritation welling up within her.

What's so good about this idiot?! What does my brother see in her?

Despite her intense disgust, Zhong Ai didn't show any aversion or disdain on her face. She wanted to prevent any fool from using this as leverage to complain to her brother, and she didn't want her brother to think she was a bad child, even if there was the slightest possibility of it.

So she nodded expressionlessly.

"Yeah?"

After uttering two words in a flat, monotone tone, she turned around again and walked away.

Beneath his expressionless face, there was a hint of elation.

Great.

She was even somewhat impatiently anticipating Yan Xi's provocation, or even his irrational and foolish actions.

That way, I can fight back openly and squarely, and crush her completely.

Hurry up! Hurry up!

I'm waiting for you.

As Yan Xi watched Zhong Ai walk away, the courage she had finally mustered vanished in an instant.

She leaned against the tree trunk alone, away from the hustle and bustle of the internet revelry, looking up at the birds hopping among the branches.

At times like these, only one emotion remains.

"Producer, I really want to see you."
