Urging for more updates, then turning into a magical girl.

Chapter 33 Awaken! The magical girl who's been urging for more updates!

Although Cheng Qi had long known that Basil had a peculiar way of thinking and that his actions were often unpredictable, she never expected that he would come up with such a vicious idea!

It's all reversed! It's all reversed!

"No...that won't do, will it?"

Mo Ranying was still undecided. "What if she... really is Aqi... we've brainwashed the Commander, that would be just too..."

"Are you stupid?! Can't you even do this math?"

Basil patted Mo Ranying's shoulder with a look of exasperation, then held up a finger and began to analyze the situation logically. "Ranying, think about it carefully. If this little girl is lying, and she's not the leader at all, but just Dr. Zhang's subordinate or an enemy trying to infiltrate our organization... then after brainwashing her into an obedient puppet, we not only suffer no losses, but we also eliminate a potential threat, right?"

Mo Ran Ying nodded blankly: "That's true. But you still haven't answered me... if she were the commander..."

"That's the key point!"

Basil's voice suddenly became seductive.

"Assuming what she said is true... then, that usually aloof and authoritative leader has now become such a petite and adorable little girl. If you put her in a brainwashing device and brainwash her, rendering her completely incapable of resistance..."

Basil moved closer to Mo Ranying, continuing to fan the flames: "Then, this adorable commander will be completely at your beck and call. You can take her back to your room and do whatever you want with her, dress her in whatever clothes you want, make her do whatever you want, do whatever you want..."

"Look, whether she's the commander or not, we're not at a disadvantage either way! In fact, if she really is the commander... that would be even better!!!"

As Mo Ranying listened, her eyes gradually widened.

In her pink eyes, anxiety and worry quickly turned into excitement.

She turned her head, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Cheng Qi changed.

"Hehe...hehehe..."

Mo Ran Ying let out a strange laugh and wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth.

"Um... this is also for the safety of 'Where the Stars Are'! We can't let any suspicious individuals get away... Little sister, please come with us!"

As Mo Ranying approached step by step, Cheng Qi subconsciously covered his chest with his hands and retreated repeatedly.

What the hell?!

Mo Ran Ying, wake up! The way you're acting is like a wolf seeing a lamb...!

Cheng Qi looked at Basil, who was standing aside watching the show.

At this moment, Basil stood with his arms crossed and a smug smile on his face.

asshole!

Seeing Basil's expression, Cheng Qi suddenly realized what was going on.

That basil girl, she's definitely figured out that I really am Cheng Qi!

The reason she deliberately followed the line of "suspicion" and said those words was entirely to mislead Mo Ranying. Then, under the pretext of "verifying her identity," she would tie herself up and find an excuse to "punish" herself, the leader who had carelessly abandoned the base!

Damn it!

If this continues, I'm really going to get thrown into the modification device and brainwashed by these two guys!

"Sakura!" Cheng Qi shouted anxiously, "I've already sacrificed myself and become a girl for the greater good, won't you leave me alone?!"

"No...this is completely different!" Mo Ran Ying gasped for breath, her eyes gleaming as she stretched out her sinful hands. "Who, who could resist such an adorable commander! A Qi, just stop resisting, I'll be very gentle with you!"

Looking at Mo Ranying, who was lost in some strange delusion, Cheng Qi felt a chill run down his spine.

No! Absolutely not!

I finally managed to infiltrate the chief eunuch's side with great difficulty!

Over the past three days, I set aside my authority as a leader, dressed as a maid, cooked for her, made her bed, and even gave her massages! With so much effort I've put in, the hypnosis has deepened step by step…

She just said yesterday that she's found her rhythm and there's a possibility of updating twice a week!

I haven't seen this chapter updated yet!

I haven't forced her to update 10,000 words every day!

How could I possibly stop here?!

The eager faces of the readers and the countless messages pleading for updates in the book review section seemed to transform into light at this moment, illuminating Cheng Qi's heart.

When people are extremely helpless and angry, they will subconsciously seek some kind of support. Without realizing it, Cheng Qi reached into his pocket.

I touched a smooth, round stone.

This morning, that good-for-nothing fairy handed me the "Seed of Heart".

"Buzz—"

The next second, a wave rippled outwards from Cheng Qi, and dazzling light burst forth from her pocket.

The light wasn't a blinding, blazing white, but rather a soft, shimmering iridescence. Even in broad daylight, this light stole all the surrounding colors and drew everyone's attention.

Mo Ranying, who was about to pounce, was forced back two steps by the light, and the smile on Basil's face also stopped.

Cheng Qi took his left hand out of his pocket.

Light flowed like a spring, pouring down from between her fingers.

Cheng Qi opened his palm, and the Seed of the Heart surged with rainbow light. The light enveloped the petite body of the blue-haired girl, as if responding to some powerful call.

"Huh?"

Cheng Qi looked down at the Seed of Heart in his hand, completely bewildered.

What... what's going on?

Why did the Seed of Heart, which had no reaction at all this morning, suddenly light up now?

I... I didn't do anything, did I? I just grumbled in my head!

Feeling the warmth emanating from the light, Cheng Qi's soul seemed to be drawn by an invisible thread from the Seed of the Heart.

Cheng Qi closed his eyes.

At that moment, her soul connected with the Seed of the Heart, causing an irresistible impulse to surge within Cheng Qi—

I... can become a magical girl?

But... why was I suddenly recognized by the Seed of the Heart?

Zhang Menglin once said that the "ideal choice" of the Seed of the Heart requires an extremely compatible desire as a key.

Could it be that my obsession with "going back to watch the chief eunuch write no matter what" had actually transcended personal desire and become a kind of belief, thus inadvertently causing the Seed of the Heart to identify with my own inner self?

Or perhaps... deep down, she's already developed a desire to become a magical girl?

Bathed in the light, countless thoughts flashed through Cheng Qi's mind.

No... now is not the time to think about such nonsense.

What did that bumbling fairy say again?

"One more thing, it might be a bit early to say this now, but once the connection is established, remember to set a transformation spell for yourself!"

Design a transformation spell...

It must be something you most deeply desire to achieve!

In the bright light, Cheng Qi opened his eyes.

At this moment, all she could think about was the novel she had been longing for!

Having confirmed this, Cheng Qi tightly gripped the Seed of the Heart in his hand and placed it against his chest—

"Magic, please let me see the end of that world soon."

As the incantation ended, magic transformed into countless dazzling ribbons, wrapping around Cheng Qi's body. When the light faded, the surrounding magical aura gradually subsided.

This momentum...this power!

Cheng Qi lowered his head and looked at his new self.

She wore a blue and white maid outfit, adorned with black lace and silver cross-shaped stars. Beneath her short skirt were white pantyhose, which, combined with her long blue princess-cut hair, gave her both the obedient demeanor of a maid and an aura of unapproachable sternness.

Even if she becomes a magical girl, can't she escape the fate of becoming that grand eunuch's maid?!

But none of that matters anymore!

She has finally become a magical girl with power!

Cheng Qi felt the overflowing magic power within his body and looked at Basil and Mo Ranying in front of him with an extremely arrogant gaze.

Tremble, you two traitors who dare to defy your superiors!

Standing before you now is a magnificent awakened magical girl!

"Hmph hmph hmph... Hahahaha!"

Cheng Qi put his right hand on his hip and pointed his left hand straight ahead.

"See that?! That's how protagonists are treated! That's how it's written in novels and anime these days!"

"At a critical moment when she was in dire straits, filled with intense resolve and strong bonds, she suddenly awakened as a magical girl! Having gained new powers, she turns the tables and resolves the crisis to the accompaniment of her own special background music—!"

"Now, I'll show you my newly acquired power—"

Before Cheng Qi could finish speaking, Basil appeared behind him instantly, raising his right hand with an extremely speechless expression.

"Thump!!"

A chop to the back of Cheng Qi's neck.

"Well……"

Cheng Qi felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, and his body went limp and he collapsed. Basil reached out and caught the small body of the blue-haired girl.

"What are you babbling about? She's just a newly awakened 'Seed' level magical girl, acting like she's the real deal."
