Chapter 451: A Little More Encouragement for Newcomers, A Heavy Blow to Hyacinth
Marigold, Magical Girl's Resume - About a month.
A month ago, on her way home from school, she happened to see the Stargazer Elf looking worried by the roadside.
Out of curiosity, and also harboring a girlish dream, she stepped forward and greeted the stargazers.
Hello, are you the Stargazer Elf?
The moment their eyes met, the stargazer practically jumped up, uttering a string of incomprehensible words, but only two sentences left a deep impression on her:
"I am a stargazer who has traveled from the celestial realm. You have the potential to become a magical girl!"
"Accept this guardian star and become a magical girl!"
Later, she became the magical girl Marigold, and also met Yumefuu, who was also chosen by the Stargazers.
In Snow City, a northern city that has long been devoid of magical girls, two tiny, insignificant flowers stubbornly bloom beneath the pristine white snow.
"But...we're both too weak..."
"Not only is his magic power insufficient, but he also lacks combat experience, and even his mastery of magic and melee skills is extremely poor..."
"But we're the only magical girls in Snow City capable of fighting monsters. Even if we're weak, we'll do everything in our power to defeat the monsters that threaten everyone's safety!"
Marigold mustered her courage and loudly proclaimed the protective beliefs she held when she became a magical girl.
The golden-haired fox girl couldn't help but applaud her, her fox tail swaying behind her.
"Waaaaah, I'm so touched. Miss Marigold's will has deeply moved me, and I'm sure the viewers in the live stream have felt their conviction too."
"What are you so emotional about! Put them down right now!" Hyacinth's voice came from not far away.
Before she could continue speaking, several snowballs were thrown at her face. Hyacinth hurriedly raised her shield to defend herself, but her face was covered in snowflakes.
[Magical Girls☆Snowball Fight]
This is a limited-time event in today's live stream, featuring a multi-camera live stream of the snowball fight between Hyacinth and Hellcat, with both sides having a great time.
Hellcat's snowball-throwing movements were fast and accurate, and Hyacinth was so crushed that she couldn't lift her head and could only hide behind her shield and throw a snowball at her from time to time.
But Fenrir immediately blocked the snowball, even though the gray wolf was covered in snowflakes, she seemed to be enjoying it.
Iris's situation is not optimistic either—Cheshire Rabbit's stealth snowballs are tricky to land, and the combined firepower of the two Alices is making it difficult for her to cope.
"Everyone is having a great time," Su Tianqing said with a smile, turning to look at the two newlyweds in front of her.
The situation is somewhat delicate for the newcomers:
The sheep monster was resummoned by the Heart Moon Magic Wand. Its fluffy wool tightly bound Marigold and Dream Winter Flower, suspending them in the air, unable to move.
The former could barely manage a few words with Xin Yuehu, while the latter was so nervous that he could only stammer and couldn't string together a single complete sentence.
"Heart, Heart Moon Fox! Release Marigold and the others right now! Otherwise I'll..." Hyacinth shouted.
"Hehehe, it seems Miss Hyacinth still has plenty of time, even enough to observe what's going on with me, Fox Fox~?"
"Kitty, give her a hard time."
"Okay."
Upon hearing the fox girl's words, the cat girl's already upturned smile became even more pronounced.
The cat paw touched the snow, and a huge snowball, much larger than the entire hyacinth, appeared in the Hellcat's hand. It looked at the terrified sky-blue magical girl.
"Hey! Why are you making such a big snowball?! Are you going to throw it at me?!"
"You guessed it, it's meant to be smashed on you, take this!"
"Guwa!"
"Pfft!"
Hyacinths were buried in the snow amidst their mournful cries.
The golden-haired fox girl shifted her gaze from the snowball fight battlefield back to the two women with marigolds.
"Miss Marigold, and this one over here... Miss Winterflower."
"Fox, my viewers are quite curious about you two. If it's alright, could you please introduce yourselves to everyone?"
"Aba aba aba..."
Meng Donghua trembled all over, her mouth quivering unconsciously, and her tension intensified. Su Tianqing even felt that she had the potential to become a socially anxious cyberpsychotic.
But this is also for the sake of the two newlyweds.
Magical girls with low popularity find it difficult to maintain long-term activities, especially when merchandise sales are severely lacking.
Girls who dedicate a lot of time to magical girl activities find it difficult to balance their studies, and if they lose the subsidies from merchandise, they might even have trouble making ends meet.
And that's what I can do right now—use my livestream to bring newcomers their first batch of followers and help them gain confidence as magical girls.
It might even boost the local magical girl merchandise economy!
...
Fortunately, the two cooperated quite well, unlike Hyacinth, who was unyielding in front of the public.
By the time Tian Nanxing and Ye Ying arrived at the scene and dug out the hyacinth buried in the snow, Xin Yuehu and the others had already disappeared without a trace.
"I saw something really interesting today!"
Sitting on the makeshift villain rooftop, the golden-haired fox girl watched the hastily edited video by her familiars and said with a smile.
[The Magical Girl Rookie of Snow City ~Bound at First Sight! Everything You Want to See is Here]
"By simply editing today's interviews and self-introductions, and then adding our snowball fight, we can make another video!"
"When everyone's involved, making videos is as easy as breathing!"
Everyone glanced at the contractor fox, who was supervising the familiars, Palu, as they worked diligently.
"Speaking of which, how about we discuss tomorrow's investigation plan?"
Fenrir said.
Everyone remembered the purpose of their trip to Snow City, and after arranging the tasks for the familiars, the fox girl immediately joined the discussion.
Having a snowball fight with the hyacinths is secondary; helping Xia Taotao find her hometown is the most important thing!
"We just strolled around the surrounding towns, bought some souvenirs, and did a quick survey of the area."
"Is the merchandise... the limited edition merchandise set from earlier?" Fenrir wagged its wolf tail in surprise.
"Yes, but we'll talk about that later. Rabbit seems to have made a very important discovery today. Can she share it with everyone?"
Skipping over the surrounding events, Su Tianqing turned the conversation to the pink-haired bunny girl. The Cheshire bunny blinked and expressed her "familiarity" with the city.
Generally speaking, people don't feel "familiar" when they first arrive in a new city.
Unless you've been here as a child or seen similar scenes in TV shows or books, you won't feel a sense of familiarity to all of you.
Xia Taotao might belong to the former category.
"Judging from how familiar you are with this city, it's very likely that this is your hometown."
"Then let's focus our investigation tomorrow on the rabbit-beastman settlements in this area; we might find some valuable clues!"
"We might even be able to find the place where you lived when you were little... who knows!"
