This unfortunate reader is called Qiuqiu. His tail was stiff, and he couldn't believe what he saw.
Originally, after reading several works by Asuka, readers had a psychological expectation of the theme of magical girls: they are relaxed, youthful, and can get through difficulties safely with the help of almighty love. Moreover, each magical girl has different characteristics, some have different hair, some have different weapons, in short, each has its own characteristics, and together they collide to create a wonderful campus journey.
The beginning of "Bungo and Magical Girl" is no different from that of a normal magical girl.
[Sakura, an ordinary student, opened a strange book and released a "paper witch". Paper witches are usually born from tragic characters in ancient books, and have gone to extremes. They have extremely strong destructive and bewitching power and will turn reality into the same tragedy as the book.
This paper witch is called "Fantine" from "Les Miserables". She is tall and thin, holding a pair of scissors, and cutting the hair of everyone who passes by.
The protagonist Sakura believes that it is her responsibility to stop it, so she keeps trying to stop the Paper Witch. Suddenly, a talking book appears, claiming that if she signs a contract to become a magical girl, she will gain powerful power to stop the Paper Witch.
But before signing the contract, Sakura needs to make a wish. Sakura immediately wishes for "the power to protect others". Suddenly, her friend Iris rushes out and replaces the contract. Iris becomes a new magical girl on the spot and defeats the Paper Witch with the magic of the book page.
"People like you are not qualified to be a magical girl." Iris said harshly.
"She still doesn't want to reconcile with me..." Sakura said disappointedly, "I broke her invitation to a picnic during the summer vacation and left her in the sun for two hours. It was really too much. No wonder she hates me. It's all my fault. How can we reconcile?"
The floating magic book said, "What an impolite fellow! You are the one I contracted with! I don't have enough protagonists now, Sakura-san, how about making another wish to make peace with Iris-san?"
Sakura refused: "You can't rely on external forces to make peace with your best friends."
In the following days, Sakura met different magical girls, Lily, Rose, Hyacinthus... She also wanted to protect others, so she used her physical skills and wisdom to help those magical girls. Because she didn't have a fancy transformation uniform, she was called "the grayest magical girl."
Alien reader Qiuqiu thought that this was Sakura's routine to be recognized by others and called the most shining magical girl. Everyone acted like this!
It also praised the book for its innovation, saying that the origins of the Paper Witch were adapted from many classic works. It loves reading this kind of Blue Planet science.
"But this doesn't seem to be Asuka's style. Could it be written by a newcomer?"
Who knew there would be such a dramatic turn in the next chapter.
The magical girl Lily was caught by the Paper Witch and taken into a book. She turned into ashes, and a new Paper Witch was born from the ashes.
"Yuri is dead! She's really gone!" Qiuqiu and many alien readers screamed when they saw this, "Isn't Yuuri the protagonist? How can a magical girl die?"
Qiuqiu looked at the author's name. This author's name was very special, called "Anonymous". Did the author know that this kind of creation would be criticized? Don't let it know who is under the vest!
Before Qiuqiu had time to feel sad, he was stunned by the truths that came one after another.
After Lily's tragic death, the magical girl in the book also collapsed.
The paper witches they have been chasing are actually magical girls like them in their lifetime, enemies and friends of the same origin. But once they are caught in the book, everything about them as human beings will disappear.
Sakura questioned the Book of Contract, why it didn't tell them this beforehand.
The Book of Contract says that books are the ladder of human progress, so books always carry the evil of this world. When the malice is too heavy, the Paper Witch is born in a tragic image. But for humans, the cancer of the earth, the existing books are not enough, so this "blank book" comes into this world.
It will select magical girls as the protagonists and perform their lives on blank pages, until malice turns them into new paper witches, who will then be defeated by new magical girls.
As compensation, any story written on the page can come true.
"Isn't that enough?" The Book of Contract said, "I am completely blank. Come on, Sakura, write down your wish. Although I have been written down for half of the protagonist's quota, it is still enough if we squeeze in."
Outside the book.
"Book of Contract! Aren't you a mascot?" Qiuqiu was shocked. "You are actually an undercover agent of the enemy camp! How can the truth about the magical girl be so cruel! And you actually want to continue to persuade Sakura to join? Don't you have a conscience?"
"But this explanation seems to make sense." The other readers were thoughtful after being shocked. "Previous stories of this type have never explained how the witch who is the enemy appeared. If she was transformed from a magical girl, everything makes sense."
"Don't tell me the truth! Give me back my youth campus drama!"
"Wow, Lily really can't be resurrected, right? Will the other magical girls be fine..."
But no matter how the readers wailed, their bodies continued to read honestly. They had never seen such a story before, interpreting a comedy theme from a tragic perspective, which itself had great magic. In addition, the book also contained some interesting little popular science about Blue Star literature, and the sentences had a unique charm, which gently hooked them when they were about to leave.
Even because of these sad complaints, "Bungo to Magical Girl" attracted many new readers. The new readers experienced excitement, shock, and cursing.
The most consistent part is the sincere insult to the contract book, why do you want to deceive people into joining the job? Damn it!
Every update of "Bungo and Magical Girl" is like a magical twist.
After the magical girl Hyacinthus discovered that the pages of a book could change her life, she filled them with a happy family for herself and became a paper witch with a smile. The family she wrote became her most loyal guards.
Magical girl Rose is skeptical about the function of the pages of the book. In her hesitation, she decides to change the fate of her friend, but no matter how she changes the story line, her friend's fate gets worse and worse.
The Book of Contract popped up again: "Because the tragedy of the past was inevitable and has been written on paper. How can it be recreated?"
"Aaaaaah! I declare this Book of Contract to be the character I hate the most!"
"Because of it, I want to smash all the physical books in the spaceship."
"Why do you always tell the truth only when someone asks you? You are an unscrupulous HR who uses fake salaries to trick people into joining the company! Look at me smashing the physical book in the air! Bang bang bang!"
Readers' hearts ached and they were angry.
Then readers learned that Iris, the magical girl who had always been at odds with Sakura, actually saw the future of Sakura's death and made the wish. She said:
"The next page after the second to last page is the first page".
Therefore, the Book of Endless Reincarnation was activated.
She tried to save other friends in each reincarnation, but always failed. She was gradually breaking down, and the only thing that could comfort her was that she had saved Sakura from the beginning.
"Iris has always been the light of strength in this book, but I didn't expect that she had trained herself through fighting again and again... Iris's true personality has completely changed. In fact, she is very gloomy, but she maintains her previous appearance in front of Sakura. Ah, it hurts!"
"I thought she was a common tsundere character, but I didn't expect that she was willing to pay the price of almost breaking down in order to save her friend. Wow, Sakura is still thinking about her summer date and is worried that Iris hasn't forgiven her, but Iris thinks that she has forgiven her a long time ago. I can't bear to see this when I get old."
Qiuqiu pulled out a tissue and wiped it vigorously in front of the light brain, and all his emotions turned into only four words: "They are so real!"
Eventually, the city became too evil and almost all the magical girls turned into paper witches. Giant paper devils twisted their bodies in the wind and destroyed the city.
Only the irises and cherry blossoms remained.
Iris fought off several paper witches, but collapsed due to exhaustion. She felt that she was reaching her limit, so she repeatedly told Sakura that she must not become a magical girl.
But Sakura said calmly that the past cannot be changed.
Iris said: "Don't listen to that book's nonsense. I clearly changed the node where you became a magical girl!"
Sakura said: "Maybe... because in all my reincarnations, I have never become a magical girl. After all, clothes? Technology? Or wisdom can all be the key to victory."
"When the contract book asked me that, I said I wanted to protect others, but in my heart I wanted to reconcile with Iris-san, so I couldn't rely on external forces. Maybe because of this, the contract was not successful in the first place." Sakura said, "Iris-san, you have worked hard. You have to endure so much. Leave the rest to me! Jump out of the cycle of reincarnation. You don't have to do such hard things as becoming the protagonist anymore!"
"Let the gray magical girl complete her one and only performance!"
In many reincarnations, each time the book of contract would leave her half a blank page, and now Sakura has finally accumulated enough blank pages. She wants to let other people's stories repeat themselves on her, creating a book of life that is thick enough to carry the paper malice of the entire city. In the end, everyone can reach a new page in life, and Sakura stays on the last page of her book.
"Why……"
The readers murmured in front of the computer screen, and their tears turned into the sea.
"Iris's countless reincarnations were all to keep Sakura alive. This was clearly all she wanted. Why didn't she get it? Why did they have to be separated? Iris might even forget everything Sakura had done for her! But she didn't want to forget."
"Iris is in an infinite cycle, and Sakura is not insensitive. She relies on her intuition to do many things to reverse the tragedy, such as going to school, saying goodbye properly, and exercising regularly. In many battles, she has been able to deal with enemies faster and faster. Even if she has lost her memories, even if she has not become a real magical girl, she is still the kind-hearted child who stands up to protect others and Iris. No wonder Iris is obsessed with her."
"Woo woo woo, anonymous author, come out!"
"I feel so miserable lately. At first I liked the two novelists Xun Ming and Yong Ye, but they broke up because of different philosophies! I liked the novels of Qiong Tian and Cang Hai, but one got terminally ill and the other stopped writing! I thought there must be sweet friendships in the books, so I chose the theme of magical girls to be on the safe side. But the result!! Woohoo, author, compensate me for Sakura and Iris!!"
"A terrible thing has happened. I have read all the Blue Star novels, and it seems that no one has written about sweet love... Blue Star novelists! Don't you guys ever fall in love? Are you emotionless cold-blooded creatures?"
…
"I just finished posting the update today, and I feel so relieved."
As the saying goes, the joys and sorrows of different creatures are not the same. The network delay of the Tide Level was getting higher and higher, and Xi Yujin was too lazy to read the readers' wailing. He was waiting for another update with all his heart.
The more time passed, the more nervous he felt, and his heartstrings became more and more tense. He walked around the viewing hall like a second hand on a clock, like a writer without inspiration.
"Click"
The door is unlocked.
Xi Yujin looked at Ganuo. Although he was the most familiar companion in this universe, he suddenly became extremely nervous. He seemed to hear the sound of the clock slowly closing the minutes and seconds, and the second boot that had been hanging in the air for half a day finally fell. The countdown was over, and what was supposed to come would eventually come.
Ganuo was also very nervous, even more nervous than when he first entered the authority day. He held the manuscript. In fact, there was an electronic version on the optical computer, but the form of the manuscript gave him some support in his hand. He didn't know what the ending would be, but he still wanted to do it.
"I wrote a letter and want to submit it on Blue Star." Gano said. He noticed that Xi Yujin's expression was different for a second. In this second, Yujinnuo breathed a sigh of relief. He was not as surprised as he expected. This was contrary to the scenarios he had deduced thousands of times through the armor. His plan deviation value reached 99%. Any accident could happen in the next second! In this second, Gano had already thought of many messy scenarios.
"Then I - let me take a look -" Xi Yujin tried hard to pretend that he had no prior knowledge of the matter. He picked up a pen with his left hand - although he was right-handed, he had forgotten it at this moment - and put the pen into his pocket meaninglessly, then took it out and put it back into his pocket.
Both of them used the worst acting skills of their lives and turned a blind eye to the other's problems.
After some meaningless, dry and sleepwalking-like polite words, Xi Yujin finally got Gano's manuscript.
When he saw it for the first time, the entire Tide Flat was driven by his gravity and turned 180 degrees illegally.
Gano stuttered for the first time: "What, what happened?"
"I saw four words, which were written very well. These four words are..." Xi Yujin mustered up the courage to glance at the manuscript and answered quickly, "To Yujinnuo."
So scary.
They both thought of it at the same time.
The Chaoping was equipped with an automatic guidance device, so there was no need to worry about Xi Yujin's gravity. It would leisurely turn back to the correct course during the two people's extremely slow conversation.
"Is this a letter written to me?" Xi Yujin regained some of his sanity. His mood finally relaxed after a violent fluctuation and he entered a strange period of calm.
Every time Gano affirmed Xi Yujin, he felt relieved: "Yes, I just want to do this. I want to express more to Yujinnuo..."
Xi Yujin looked down.
"To Emberno:
"I have read the existing texts of Blue Star, but I have not found a suitable Blue Star word to describe you and me. Because I don't want to make you sad, nor do I want to be involved in a case that is too bizarre and tortuous, and I don't want to be separated from you because of a misunderstanding.
"I seldom think, but I want to lay out the time before I met you. My memories of my hometown have become very vague, but I still remember that my job was to observe the universe and defend against foreign enemies day after day. But the war has been over for a long time, and it is better to say that I am on the lookout rather than on guard. In the changing wonders of the universe, in the dullness and boredom of the day, I had a wrong idea. I wanted to go out and see the world.
"Once a mistake is made, it can only continue to happen. But what will the future be like? I don't know.
"Meeting you is like the beginning of a miracle. Please allow me to rewrite my resume. I am the official translator of Blue Star, and I have experience in multilingual translation... I have no rivals in fighting against the enemy, and I have the following experience (omit some of the bragging of force), please rest assured... I can fly, I can drive a spaceship, I can bargain, I can cook Blue Star dishes, and I can answer many, many questions (smudge many times), and I can also pick other people's flowers (smudge)
"I know miracles have an end date, but if I stay one more second, walk one more distance, it's like I like you a little more."
After reading the last sentence, Xi Yujin shrank as if he had been burned by a flame. His insides seemed to be burned as well, and countless numbing warm currents were melting away.
"I……"
Xi Yujin looked at Jia Nuo's rare nervous and helpless eyes, and just wanted to respond to him impatiently, not wanting Jia Nuo to experience any of the pain he had been waiting for. What is there to hesitate about? Liking someone is a simple matter, who in the universe dares to object?
But as soon as the words came out of his mouth, they came back again, like a paper airplane that dived and then turned around and flew back to the starting point.
"Do you know what like means?"
Xi Yujin had a hundred little birds singing in his heart. Being loved by others was the happiest and most joyful thing in life. But he was restrained on the surface and his words were still tentative, as if he was pretending and craving for more.
He tried to give an example: "Like probably means that no matter how boring something is, you will subconsciously share it with the other person."
Ganuo asked rigorously: "Will what I write be boring?"
Xi Yujin shook his head decisively.
Ganuo thought for 0.5 seconds, stood up, and pressed towards Xi Yujin. Xi Yujin's eyes darkened, and then Ganuo's chin was placed on his shoulder, and his hands were tightly holding each other. The sound of his heartbeat seemed to make diamonds vibrate. Xi Yujin looked at the transparent panoramic ceiling, the vast stars, and was at a loss to accept all the sharing from another universe.
The author has something to say:
Reader: Is there no sweet love on the blue planet?
Ember: I’m holding it!
