Pray and become a magical girl

Chapter 5: 5 - Magic time is over, now is physical time

Shen Xinmeng knelt on the ground obediently, with a very sincere attitude.

Cheng Yiran was sitting on a stone pier with his legs crossed. Although he was not a Leo today, he was still very domineering.

"Tell me, what is going on?" Cheng Yiran asked calmly, his tone not as angry as before.

However, Shen Xinmeng was very scared. Others might not know what kind of turbulent waves were hidden in such a calm sea.

Only those who have worked under Xinggong know how terrible it is when Xinggong gets angry, especially when he is a fire sign.

This fear was deeply engraved in Shen Xinmeng's DNA. She immediately begged for mercy, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you! Please, Sister Xinggong, don't use Capricorn to seal my supernatural power and throw it to the tentacle monster again!"

Cheng Yiran's expression became unnatural and she rubbed her face awkwardly, as if this was really the case.

People say that tentacles are the natural enemy of magical girls, but in fact, except for Cheng Yiran, tentacles are the nightmare of all girls.

Shen Xinmeng's supernatural power is very powerful. Even without training, she can use her supernatural power called absolute zero to instantly kill city-destroying monsters.

But what if she didn't have super powers? Then she would just be an ordinary girl.

Although the anti-riot-level tentacle monster is a kind of strange beast that is difficult for ordinary people to kill, it has extremely strong resilience and vitality, so many D-level female heroes have suffered both physical and mental damage under its tentacles.

Well~ this also includes the S-class hero Feishuang Sword Immortal. Even now, Shen Xinmeng would feel inexplicably weak when facing tentacle monsters.

Xu Zhenan behind him burst out laughing and gave Cheng Yiran a thumbs up.
-
You are really worthy of it, Cheng Haoran!

Cheng Yiran patted Shen Xinmeng's shoulder and smiled, "Don't worry, as long as you listen to me, I will never do such a thing."

But this is even more terrifying.

Shen Xinmeng shuddered visibly, then hurriedly said, "This... this matter has nothing to do with me, Sister Xinggong! You know that there are only three S-class heroes of your generation in China, you, Brother Tianming, and Grandpa Liangyi.

“So I have no jurisdiction over their affairs, and their retirement documents will not pass through my hands.

"Plus, the retirement ceremonies of those people were all held in secret. I only knew about this when Brother Tianming told me when he came to apply for retirement."

Cheng Yiran was still thinking, it seemed that he had really wronged Shen Xinmeng this time, but -

"Then why can't I apply for retirement?" Cheng Yiran asked, with a questioning tone.

"You have a long way to go, Sister Xinggong! You are the third-ranked S-class hero. If you retire, the Hero Association will be finished!"

That's true, the new generation of S-class heroes are not yet mature, and someone has to take the lead.

Cheng Yiran retorted, "Then why me? Isn't there an S-ranked Sand of Time above me?"

"Don't think I'm easy to fool. At that time, the ranking of S-level heroes was not based on strength." Shen Xinmeng whispered.

But Cheng Yiran still heard it. She raised her eyebrows impatiently and said, "Ah? What did you say? If you don't give me a satisfactory answer——

"It will be midnight soon. If you are lucky, you can draw Capricorn. You don't want the person who collects your body to see you being tormented by the tentacle monster, do you?"

Shen Xinmeng suddenly panicked, because the special ability of Aries is luck, which is an extremely incredible ability.

It is said to be lucky, but in fact it is like changing all the dice faces to six, thus affecting the probability.

So Cheng Yiran’s “better luck” means that as long as she wants, she will definitely draw Capricorn tomorrow.

Shen Xinmeng looked at Cheng Yiran, then at Xu Zhenan, and finally decided to avoid her own defeat CG.
-
Brother Tianming, I’m sorry!

"Brother Tianming! Sister Xinggong, Brother Tianming is fully aware of this matter!" Shen Xinmeng immediately put the blame on Xu Zhenan.
-
This girl sold me out so decisively. I should have helped you take it.

Xu Zhenan's eyebrows twitched.

Cheng Yiran's attention turned to Xu Zhenan, and she asked kindly, "Xu Zhenan, can you explain what's going on?" Because of habit, even though the super-power era has passed, their titles are still hero code names, and when they call their real names, it means the situation is serious.

Xu Zhenan answered honestly, "They also ignored me in this matter. When they voted for who to keep, I insisted on not voting for you. However, the minority obeyed the majority, and the unanimous decision was you in the end."

Of course, having said that, Xu Zhenan actually voted for Cheng Yiran. Except for Liang Yi Tai Chi who abstained from voting, all seven votes were for her.

Well~ Only people with a mental problem would mess with the Star Palace when they are a fire sign.

"Okay, okay, that's how we play it, huh?" Cheng Yiran sneered, his smile a little creepy, "When is your retirement ceremony?"

Xu Zhenan didn't see her expression, and it wouldn't matter if he saw it. What else could Cheng Yiran do except play some pranks on them?
"The day after tomorrow, everyone will be here by then."

"Okay, don't blame me for messing up your retirement ceremony then."

Xu Zhenan smiled indifferently, "Isn't it better for a party like this to be lively? The thing I wanted to inform you of is over, so why don't you go now?"

"Let's go." Cheng Yiran, although still angry, did not allow it to affect her meeting with her old friend.

……

Cheng Yiran has cancelled his transformation. Maybe there will be people who know Xinggong. In comparison, Yiran's identity as an idol is less eye-catching.

As for Shen Xinmeng and Xu Zhenan, there is no need to mention them. One has a conspicuous long silver hair, and the other has his eyes closed without a cane. Everyone would think of them as Feishuang Sword Immortal and the Destiny Man.

Cheng Yiran doesn't want a simple dinner to turn into a fan meeting.

"There are three of us, so let's just use the signature dishes from your restaurant." Cheng Yiran said to the boss.

As it turned out, Cheng Yiran's choice was correct. Even through the mask and sunglasses, the boss recognized her.

"Are you Yi Ran?" The boss' tone was a little excited.

Cheng Yiran sighed helplessly in her heart. She didn't expect that she was so popular and had fans among the middle-aged people.

"Shh~" Cheng Yiran smiled sweetly and made a playful gesture, "My friend is just having a meal, don't tell anyone~"

The boss nodded in understanding, and then considerately arranged a very secluded private room for them.

The dishes were served quickly. Just as Cheng Yiran was about to open a can of beer and clink glasses with Xu Zhenan, something strange happened.

"Residents of Lianxin Street, please evacuate immediately. I'm notifying you again. Residents of Lianxin Street, please evacuate immediately. Tunnel energy has been detected!"

Suddenly, alarms sounded throughout the neighborhood.

"..." Cheng Yiran crushed the beer bottle angrily, "Why did you encounter a tunnel at this time? Didn't you foresee this tunnel?"

The last sentence was directed to Xu Zhenan.

Xu Zhenan also shrugged helplessly and said, "That should be a disruption-level tunnel. You know what my ability is like. Let's just eat our food. It should be over soon."

"No, my hands are itching now. I'll go and get it."

I was just worrying about where to vent my anger today, and now the sandbag is here.

"The stars are shining!"

After saying that, Cheng Yiran transformed.

The light curtain shattered, and this time the height did not change much, because this time it was the most powerful form - Leo!

Cheng Yiran clenched his fists and smiled excitedly, "The magic time is over, now it's physics time!"
