Starting as a Magical Girl, I Alone Shall Rule for Eternity

Of course, in the end, Jiang Si couldn't really shake off Keke and go to the Azure Cloud Sect.

Bingtang, over there, was naturally keeping a close eye on Keke's situation the whole time;the ice crystal surveillance above her head never disappeared.

Jiang Si could basically guess that Bingtang had him come to the mall specifically designed for him to run into Keke here.

After hearing he wanted to go over and ask about the Full Bloom results, Bingtang got scared, repeatedly saying the analysis wasn't finished yet, telling him to come later, and to send Keke home first to comfort her.

Keke simply clung to his arm and started crying, saying nothing, just crying.

The onlookers grew in number, their gazes growing stranger and stranger.

Jiang Si could only first pick Keke up, take her previous suitcase, and head home.

Earlier, letting her take a taxi back herself was because Jiang Si was reluctant to spend that money;his running speed was faster than a car, spending that money was a pure waste. Keke spending her own hard-earned money on a taxi was fine.

The Disaster Control Bureau's salary was not low.

But now this girl clearly didn't want to take a taxi, so Jiang Si had to take her and run.

"Bro, I can't run anymore."

After just a few steps, Keke, with red-rimmed eyes, grabbed his hand, panting heavily, "I haven't been sleeping lately..."

"Transform."

"Huh...?"

"Why aren't you transforming?"

Keke stared blankly at Jiang Si, "But, this is the street..."

"Then find a secluded place to transform."

He started dragging Keke to find a secluded corner for her to transform.

Unexpectedly, Keke absolutely refused, just clinging tightly to his arm, "No, I don't want to transform!"

So troublesome.

Keke wasn't this troublesome before.

Although she spoke very little, she was very obedient and well-behaved.

Why is she suddenly so troublesome now?

Rebellious phase?

"Then take a taxi..."

You pay for it yourself.

He originally wanted to say that, but then Keke's voice, soft and aggrieved, said, "Bro, carry me on your back."

That was indeed a money-saving method.

Back when their parents were still around, whenever the family went out to play, it was always Jiang Si carrying Keke.

Because their father here had a weak constitution, he'd get tired and out of breath after carrying her for a bit, whereas Jiang Si had no burden carrying her.

The problem was.

"How old are you now, still wanting someone to carry you?"

It's not like you haven't grown legs.

Yet, Keke actually cried and said, "I don't care, I don't care, carry me, I can't walk anymore!"

Even Jiang Si was stunned for a moment.

Has this girl gone crazy?

Jiang Si instinctively reached out to feel her forehead;she didn't have a fever either.

Possessed?

"You used to always carry me..."

That was so long ago. Ever since their parents passed away, what contact did the two of them even have?

Even doing laundry, Keke would specifically separate hers, as if afraid getting mixed with his would dirty hers.

It wasn't strange for a girl to love cleanliness, and a teenage girl being averse to physical contact with the male at home was a normal situation.

On the contrary, now it was very abnormal. A regression.

Somewhat worried she was sick, Jiang Si crouched down.

Her brain was probably broken;better take her to the hospital to get checked.

Keke had been most afraid of going to the hospital since she was little. If he told her directly to go, she'd probably say she was fine. It was more convenient to just carry her there.

Figure out a way to give her an injection...

Keke immediately jumped onto his back, tightly wrapping her arms around Jiang Si's neck.

Actually, Keke was very light. Although about the same age as Yumo, she was even a bit lighter than Yumo.

Stuffing the previously bought desserts into Keke's suitcase, Jiang Si, with one arm holding Keke's legs and the other carrying the suitcase, didn't mind the effort as he headed towards the hospital.

"Where were you planning to go with all this stuff?"

"To Anyang to find you."

"Aren't you still on break?"

Keke's final exams should be around the same time as the college entrance exam, Jiang Si remembered.

"I took leave."

Actually, she was planning to drop out.

"Who told you to take leave?" Jiang Si frowned, "You already have to take a lot of leave for that Disaster Control Bureau work. Taking leave now, right before finals, will your final exams be okay?"

Keke mumbled, "It's fine, I have time to review."

"What about the Disaster Control Bureau work?"

"I quit."

"You quit such a good job?" Jiang Si's tone was stern, "Go back and get your job back."

"Okay, I'll go tomorrow."

"Go tell them today, don't drag it out. Jobs are so hard to find now. That job of yours is flexible and pays well. You can't find anything like that outside now..."

Keke covered her ears, bumping her head against Jiang Si's, "Okay, okay, I'll talk to Yiyi this afternoon. You're so naggy, bro."

"It's not me being naggy. What did mom and dad say before?"

Keke, resting her chin on her brother's shoulder, said softly, "For us to study hard. Nothing else mattered, but at the very least, getting into university was their greatest hope."

"Look at your current grades yourself..."

"My grades are very good."

Jiang Si let out an "Oh" and didn't say more.

After all, he didn't know Keke's recent exam scores either;he was just reminding her to pay attention to her grades.

If her grades were good, then it didn't matter.

Get into a university, then secure the Disaster Control Bureau job. She'd be able to live independently before long, and he wouldn't have to worry about her anymore.

That pair of parents' expectations were pretty much just that.

Walking in silence the whole way, Keke rubbed against Jiang Si's temple, "Why aren't you talking, bro?"

"About what?"

"Anything, just talk to me, bro."

Talk and then you'll find it annoying.

Come to think of it, when did this guy change how she addresses me?

Didn't she used to call me 'Jiang Si, Jiang Si'?

Did she just enter her rebellious phase and then immediately exit it? It's only been a few minutes;why does it feel even less like before the rebellious phase?

A speedrun master of adolescence?

"What realm are you at as a Magical Girl now?"

"Feels like you're still asking about grades..." Keke complained quietly, then said, "Seedling stage. Senior Susan says I'm at the mid-Seedling stage now."

Oh, the promotion speed is quite fast. She just recently advanced to Seedling, and now she's already mid-Seedling.

"Don't get arrogant, keep working hard."

At the very least, reaching Seedling Peak Perfection would count as having a bit of competitive strength.

"What's with that, sounds just like dad trying to force conversation when he doesn't understand anything."

She said with a bit of a laugh, then seeing Jiang Si fall silent again, Keke asked quietly, "Mad?"

"No."

"Mhm."

Keke affectionately pressed against Jiang Si's neck.

Then her nose felt sore. She sniffled, still feeling it was all a bit dreamlike.

She kept cautiously testing, afraid that the test would reveal it was all fake, until now, she could barely acknowledge it.

She wasn't dreaming right now.

The sunlight was as warm as when their parents were still around.

"Bro."

She thought about the things she saw in the captain's memories back then, recalling the tossing and turning, the regretful feelings of these past few days.

Some things had to be said out loud.

If there was a chance, absolutely, say them out loud early, couldn't delay for a moment. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"I'm sorry."

Whether it's feelings or misunderstandings, if you don't say them out loud, no one will know.

"It's okay," Jiang Si replied. "Being at the Seedling stage isn't that embarrassing."

"...Not that." Keke sighed, then resentfully bit the tip of Jiang Si's ear.

So hard!

If you didn't know better, you'd think you bit some steel rebar, nearly broke a tooth.

Angry, Keke secretly used a bit of mana and tried biting again.

Still couldn't bite through. She finally gave up.

"It's about before, about mom and dad." Keke said in a muffled voice, "I'm sorry."

"About what?"

"Lots of things." Keke buried her head in her brother's shoulder, speaking somewhat guiltily, "When the accident happened, at the funeral... I didn't know what you did, mistakenly thought you... did nothing. When I was the one who actually did nothing, just hid behind everyone. For three years, I made our relationship so bad, giving you the cold shoulder... I'm really sorry..."

She definitely needs that injection.

This girl's brain is so broken her memories are getting mixed up.

When was their relationship ever bad? The cold shoulder is even more nonsense.

Basically, every time they spoke, there was a response. Can that be called a cold shoulder?

Isn't the definition of a cold shoulder too broad? If this counts as a cold shoulder, then isn't he in a perpetual cold shoulder with the Azure Cloud Sect disciples?

What is a true cold shoulder?

A true cold shoulder is the Primordial Battle Saint Confucius's "Those whose paths differ do not make plans together"! It is the other Primordial Battle Saint, Laozi's "Heaven and Earth are not humane"!

Those two sages once engaged in a cold shoulder over a debate that led to the silence of all things, the emptiness of the four seas, the universe returning to ruins, and even the Great Dao being ground to dust.

In the end, even the three Primordial Battle Saints Zhuangzi, Mozi, and Sunzi joined the cold shoulder, which only ended when the five saints shattered the void.

Somewhat worried, Jiang Si quickened his pace towards the hospital.

"Bro, don't hate me, okay?"

What nonsense is this girl spouting now...

Jiang Si, quickening his pace, no longer intended to listen to this patient's ramblings. As he vaulted over a railing, the corner of his eye suddenly caught a flicker in the mirror of a clothing store next to him.

Without a second thought, he grabbed Keke's ankle and flung her away.

Keke was still immersed in the dilemma of how to earn her brother's forgiveness. This sent her flying onto the tables and chairs of a nearby cold drink shop.

She landed hard, feeling dazed and disoriented, lying on the ground for a good while before coming to.

Although not angry, her face was still somewhat bewildered.

Pushing aside the nearby tables and chairs, the surrounding crowd screaming, Keke barely managed to lift her head.

She saw a terrifying giant shark instantly charging towards Jiang Si!

"Watch out! Bro!"

Frantically, she began searching her body for her seed. By the time she found it, the giant shark had already pounced right in front of Jiang Si!

Jiang Si hadn't expected her transformation to be so sluggish.

He threw her out to prevent her from accidentally blasting him away during her transformation;the power of a Magical Girl's transformation invincibility frame was not small.

She should have taken out her seed and transformed the moment she hit the ground, then dealt with this big Disaster Beast in front of her.

Unexpectedly, she lay dazed on the ground for half a day before getting up, and by the time she went to find her seed, the giant shark was already upon them.

With this reaction speed, she wouldn't even pass the inner sect entrance exam...

Although he assigned Keke to the Disaster Control Bureau, if things continued like this, he was afraid he'd end up raising Keke into a useless person.

He had no choice but to raise his arm to block.

The charging giant shark swung its tail fin, smashing a nearby vehicle into a storefront! Sparks and lightning flew along its path, carving a deep trench into the ground!

However, when it collided with Jiang Si, he used just one hand to gently press it down.

Keke, who had been worried, was stunned. Some nearby bystanders who had been about to flee couldn't help but stop and take a second look.

The relatively short youth, compared to the giant shark, had actually nonchalantly used one hand to press down this ferociously charging behemoth, even sinking the shark's body somewhat into the asphalt road.

The previously noisy street even experienced a moment of dead silence.

Then erupted into commotion.

"Holy crap, Superman?"

"Call the Disaster Control Bureau!"

"Even Superman can't fight a Disaster Beast without mana..."

"Watch out!"

Just as Keke finally took out her seed and transformed, the pinned-down shark roared furiously.

It suddenly opened its massive maw and bit down on Jiang Si's arm!

Its teeth actually developed cracks.

For a moment, a look of violent rage appeared in the giant shark's pupils.

I'll kill you!

Exuding such an aura, the giant shark bit down with even greater force. This time, its teeth finally managed to sink in a little.

Just as a glint of excitement appeared in the giant shark's pupils...

Jiang Si nodded and said softly, "Got a good bite? Don't let go."

Before Keke could fly over, his right hand clenched into a fist, and he swung.

A punch hammered into the giant shark's head!

*BOOM!*

Like a demolition blast at a construction site, a huge tremor sounded, the shark's tail arching up as if trying to leap!

The solid asphalt road instantly collapsed, the shark's head embedded in a large crater in the ground.

With Jiang Si and the giant shark at the center of the street, cracks rapidly spread across the ground, covering the entire street. The glass of the nearby clothing store instantly shattered!

Even the entire building tilted slightly towards the center of the street, its now glassless window frames swinging and slamming wildly.

The street, which had just been bustling, finally fell completely silent.

Even the ferocious and brutal shark Disaster Beast seemed dazed by this punch, not moving for a long moment.

Then, another punch!

This punch caved in a large section of the shark's head. Although without mana, he couldn't destroy the Disaster Beast's body, causing structural deformation through impact was no problem.

Fist after fist rained down like a violent storm. Even as a Disaster Beast, a hint of fear actually surfaced in the shark's pupils.

Each punch came faster than the last, each punch harder than the last, as if his strength was inexhaustible, with no sign of him tiring.

It actually wanted to release its bite and retreat.

But it was grabbed tightly and smashed into the ground again!

"Don't let go."

He pounded until half the giant shark's head was shoved into the ground, temporarily unable to break free.

Only then did Jiang Si pull out his bitten arm.

There wasn't really any injury. Planting one foot on the Disaster Beast, now pounded into the ground and unable to move, Jiang Si glanced back at Keke, floating in mid-air, stunned.

After transforming, Keke, who had rushed over first thing to help, saw her older brother purely using his physical body to pound the Disaster Beast into the ground until it couldn't get up...

She was so shocked she momentarily forgot what she was supposed to do, just staring blankly.

My brother... seems to be Superman...

"Stop spacing out. Hurry up and eliminate it."

Keke nodded repeatedly, said "Oh," and flustered, took out her magic wand. The moment Jiang Si jumped away, she accurately blasted the giant shark, destroying it.

Though full of questions and shock, before long, Disaster Control Bureau vehicles arrived.

Keke didn't mind for herself, but with her brother's performance, if he got caught, he'd definitely be interrogated.

Then they wouldn't be able to go home today...

Thinking this, Keke picked up Jiang Si and flew up into the air.

"It's Magical Girl Ruri!"

"Miss Ruri!"

"Why is she carrying a boy?"

"Damn, I want to be carried like that too!"

......

Hearing the chattering from below, Keke immediately took Jiang Si to avoid prying eyes, flying a bit higher.

"Mhm."

Jiang Si's mind, however, was entirely on that shark Disaster Beast.

It came out of a mirror.

It left no Grief Seed after death.

He had originally wanted to take the Grief Seed after the shark died, but after Keke eliminated it, the shark completely vanished.

Nothing was left.

It was a Mirror Beast.

Has the Mirror Kingdom's seal been broken? Didn't Mujin say it was fine? Is that guy reliable or not?

Mirror Beasts are chasing me here now? Did they lock onto my location? Or was it just a coincidence?

This is a bit troublesome. If the Mirror Kingdom finds its way to Beihai, how can we make sure the Azure Cloud Sect monopolizes their technology?

Most importantly, his identity shouldn't have been exposed to the Mirror Kingdom side. Why are they coming for him?

He was certain the Mirror Beast was targeting him. When it approached, he had already sensed the mirror space nearing through the power of the Dao Seed, and then sensed that Mirror Beast checking mirrors one by one, searching for someone, until it saw him and Keke.

"Bro, it's this high up. You're not scared, right?"

Still pondering how to figure out the situation behind that shark, Keke, who was holding him, suddenly asked.

Jiang Si looked down.

Not that high, only a few thousand meters. Even if he fell, he should be able to ensure he wouldn't die.

"What's there to be scared of?"

Keke looked at her brother curiously, "You're used to it?"

"Shion often takes me flying this high."

She often flew very high when transforming.

Then his little sister suddenly fell silent. Jiang Si didn't think much of it.

Only when their home appeared below did Keke ask again, her tone faint and distant:

"Bro."

"Mhm."

"Can you break up with Shion?"

"Huh?"
