Looking at the white-haired girl lying on the bed and falling asleep, the girls were speechless for a moment.
Although they had already guessed that witches were transformed from magical girls, they could not hide their shock when a real witch transformed back into a magical girl in front of them.
"Damn it, what the hell is going on! Asshole!"
Sakura Anko slammed her fist on the table next to her and growled angrily, while Akemi Homura remained silent and just stared at Tomoe Mami quietly. The latter had a blank look in her eyes, as if she were a puppet.
"Okay, next, let's discuss and sort it out."
Fang Zheng, who had recovered, walked in and clapped his hands. Upon hearing his voice, everyone involuntarily turned their eyes to Fang Zheng. Fang Zheng then pulled over a blackboard and gestured to them.
"Okay, everyone sit down and let's have a lesson."
"yes."
At this moment, the magical girls also reacted and sat down in their respective chairs. Even Tomoe Mami was pulled down by Sakura Kyoko to sit down. Then Fang Zheng reached out and started writing and drawing on the blackboard next to him.
"So far, we have an understanding of this world, and the general situation is also known. Obviously, this world has witches and magical girls, and the magical girls are created when QB signs a contract with human girls. Then, when the magical girls fall into distortion and despair, they will transform into witches... In this way, the dark shadows in our world that are extremely hostile to magical girls can be almost confirmed."
"Teacher, what do you mean..."
Hearing this, Xiaoying asked hurriedly, and Fang Zheng nodded.
"Precia once said that the shadow monsters are the residue of emotions that are contaminated by the magic power of another world, and those shadow monsters only react to magical girls. Now it seems that these shadow monsters are obviously the emotional residue of the magical girls in this world when they transformed into witches. I don't know why they entered our world. Anger towards magical girls, hatred towards witches, despair towards everything... Well, that's about it."
Having said that, Fang Zheng drew a few strokes on the blackboard, and then clicked on a new topic again.
"Well, now that we have confirmed the relationship between this world and the shadow monster, the next step is how to eliminate the existence of the shadow monster and determine who our enemy is... What do you think?"
Hearing this, Homura Akemi wanted to speak, but Fang Zheng stopped her with a look. Facing Fang Zheng's question, the girls pondered for a moment, and then Xiao Hei spoke first.
"It's the guy named QB, right? That guy is suspicious no matter how you look at him. And he obviously knows everything, but he doesn't say anything. This is obviously intentional. If those magical girls knew that they might turn into witches in the future, maybe they would take precautions and would not turn into witches so quickly."
"But... QB fulfilled their wishes after all."
However, Fate expressed a different opinion.
"Although some magical girls feel pain and despair after their wishes are fulfilled, QB...at least they fulfill their wishes normally, right?"
Hearing this, Sakura Anko and Tomoe Mami had complicated expressions and didn't know what to say for a moment.
"But I always feel that it's... unfair."
Sakura also joined the discussion.
"Like the child we just met, her wish was just to give her sick mother a piece of cheese, but as a price, she had to become a magical girl to destroy witches. Isn't that too unfair? And, if that's the case, then why didn't QB just tell her that she could make a wish to cure her mother's illness?"
"I think..."
Then, Nanoha and Illya also joined the argument. Nanoha's idea was similar to Fate's, but Illya stood on Sakura's side. The focus of the argument between the two sides was...
They are still children...
Looking at the scene in front of him, Fang Zheng shook his head. The reason why he didn't let Homura Akemi speak directly, but let his little ones discuss it, was to let them think deeply about and learn the rules of action of Tiandao Palace. But now it seems that except for Xiao Hei who is still reliable, the other little girls are still too naive.
Fortunately, they still have a great teammate.
"Teacher, can I say a few words?"
"Of course, Tomoyo."
Hearing what Zhishi said, Fang Zheng also breathed a sigh of relief and nodded. Zhishi then stood up, thought for a moment, and then spoke.
"I think ... what the QB did was wrong."
"But didn't QB really fulfill the girls' wishes?"
"But the wishes QB fulfilled are not proportional to their efforts, Illya."
Chishize calmly explained to everyone.
"In our world, Sakura and Nanoha both volunteered to become magical girls. This is considered volunteering. If QB somehow got the girls in this world to volunteer to become magical girls, it would be fine. But in fact, QB lured the girls to sign a contract with it by 'granting wishes'. In this way, the nature of the matter has changed. The relationship between the two parties is no longer a mutual assistance, but more like a transaction. If you look at it from this perspective, then QB concealed the bad terms in the agreement, and the obligations and rewards are not equal... This is wrong no matter how you look at it."
“Ugh… if that’s the case…”
"If it's voluntary, then Sakura helping Kero and Nanoha helping Yuno-kun are all voluntary actions. Sakura, do you remember that in the final judgment, Mr. Yue once said that if you fail, then everyone related to the Clow Cards will lose their feelings for 'the person they love most'..."
"Um……"
Hearing Tomoyo's question, Sakura nodded.
"So, Sakura, do you regret it? Or if, from the beginning, Kero had told you that you would be judged in the end and that you would lose everything if you failed when he asked you to become a magical girl, would you still have accepted it?"
“…”
This time, Sakura was silent for a long while before opening her eyes again.
"I will, because I lost the Clow Cards, and I must find them all back. No matter what difficulties I face, I will never give up!"
"This is Sakura."
Hearing Sakura's answer, Tomoyo smiled gently.
"Tomoyo is right."
Hearing this, Fang Zheng clapped his hands.
"This is one aspect, and another aspect... You must learn to look at the problem from this perspective. Illya, what is the mission of the Tiandao Palace?"
"Why?"
Hearing Fang Zheng suddenly ask her this, Illya was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly answered.
"Um...protecting the earth and human civilization...?"
"You are right. Our goal is to protect the Earth and human civilization from harm."
Fang Zheng knocked on the blackboard again.
"This involves a question of place of ownership and applicability. Just as Chiyo said, transactions and contracts between humans need to be conducted through transparent, fair, and informable agreements. Because this is in line with our human rules. QB violated this rule. It concealed the risks of the transaction and maliciously tricked the girl into becoming a magical girl. Although we still don't know its purpose, it is obvious that this is an unmistakable act of harm."
"But QB is an alien creature."
However, at this moment, Homura Akemi suddenly spoke.
"Do you think it will follow human rules, Mr. Founder?"
“Since its trading subjects are humans, they must abide by human rules.”
Hearing Homura Akemi's question, Fang Zheng glanced at her.
"Of course, I know that each tribe has its own characteristics. For example, among the tribe of mind suckers, absorbing brains and controlling hearts to become slaves is part of their social system. If humans mistakenly enter the territory of mind suckers, then it is natural for them to be treated as slaves or have their brains sucked. Similarly, if we humans go to the residence of QBs, no matter how unreasonable their rules are, we can only accept them. But on the other hand, since QBs have come to Earth and the ecological circle of human civilization, they must abide by the rules and systems of human society."
Having said this, Fang Zheng paused and looked at the girls in front of him again.
"However, QB did not comply, but instead deceived others into becoming magical girls through concealment, manipulation, and fraud, and brought harm to the Earth and human civilization. According to the purpose of the Heavenly Dao Palace to protect the Earth and human civilization, I declare... from now on our enemies are identified as QB and her clan."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng slightly raised the corner of his mouth.
"In other words, the list of firewood for this month can be decided."
