Chapter 234 – 159: Three Quarters of a Friend_2
Xiaohongmao said, “There seem to be more Magic Girls who debut as idols after making a contract, right? I’ve seen many people undergoing idol training at the Alliance building, but I hardly ever see them take on missions.”

“That is indeed the case.”

Ash placed her hands on the table, the skirt of her dress spreading out like a beautiful flower over the conference table. She curled her lips disdainfully and spoke without reservation, “Although it might sound harsh, with their half-baked strength, it’s more fitting for them to sing and dance and earn money by showing their faces. If they pretend to be strong, it’ll be too late for regrets when something happens.”

“From the way you speak, senior, you must have interacted with quite a few contract-based Magic Girls.”

“There were one or two Magic Girls I got along well with, but they were contract-based and very weak.” The gothic-dress girl said softly, her eyes downcast, “Later, they all died, one torn in half by Ghosthand Buddha, another beheaded by an abyssal swordsman. Actually, I think they got what they deserved. It was all because they were too weak that they met such ends.”

She tilted her head, her long, black hair swaying gently with the gray ribbons, “After that, I basically stopped teaming up with other Magic Girls and fought solo most of the time.”

Xiaohongmao thought for a moment and asked, “So, senior, is that why you killed Ghosthand Buddha?”

“Yeah, my master always told me to stay calm, but I still couldn’t hold back and killed him that time.”

Magical Girl Ash turned her pale cheek to the side, her gaze drifting toward the skyscrapers outside the window while she spoke slowly.

“Didn’t you see how bloody the scene was? Those people online even gave me a bunch of nicknames because of it. Some called me a murderer among Magic Girls, others said I didn’t deserve to be a Magic Girl at all, some said I had no bottom line, that I was no different from those lunatics and would soon become the next Witch.”

At this point, she paused for a while.

“But I don’t care because no matter how they judge me, it doesn’t affect me. I won’t become a Witch, nor will I become timid because of their views. I am who I am and won’t change for anyone.”

Xiaohongmao fell silent for a moment, holding the brain imaging helmet and walking up to the conference table. She gently sat down beside Ash and took one of the card molds, “So, how exactly do we make the cards?”

Magical Girl Ash also fell silent for a while, picked up a blank card mold with her index and middle fingers, then infused the card with gray Magic Power.

Soon, the Magic Power enveloped it like a protective film. Immediately after, Ash’s chest burst into a strange glow, and the bowtie on her gown fluttered in the brilliant light.

She closed her eyes, reached into the hollow of her chest with her right hand, clasped the glow, and slowly “pulled” it out.

Then she slowly opened her eyes, spread her palm, and the glow in her hand vanished. In its place was a stone flickering with black and white spots, about the thickness of a finger.

Xiaohongmao’s eyes showed surprise as she silently stared at the stone, thinking that it must be the Comet Fragment inside a Magic Girl.

She had heard that if this fragment were destroyed, the Magic Girl would also die on the spot, so it was generally impossible for a Magic Girl to remove the fragment in front of others.

At the moment, the surface of the Comet Fragment was covered in a halo of densely interwoven black and white spots, like the snowy effect that appears on a malfunctioning television screen, making it impossible to see the actual appearance of the fragment.

“This is the Comet Fragment inside me,” Magic Girl Ash said expressionlessly. “You have one inside you too. Imagine in your mind what the Hope Fragment would look like, and then infuse it into the blank card mold. For example, if I want to make a ‘Magic Power Supply,’ I would imagine the appearance and effects of ‘Magic Power Supply’ in my mind, then catch the moment of resonance with the Comet Fragment, and infuse the Comet Fragment into the card mold.”

After saying this, she brought the fragment in her palm and the card mold in her hand together, and the fragment burst into a dazzling light, instantly swallowing the card mold.

“Also, if you want to add some materials during card making, you can do that too, like this.”

As she spoke, Magical Girl Ash pulled a piece of Spirit Fragrance Wood, as thick as a finger, from her Magic Book, letting go of the wood from above the glow, allowing the Spirit Fragrance Wood to fall into it.

Soon, the Spirit Fragrance Wood was engulfed by the glow as if falling into a mysterious creature’s maw.

Xiaohongmao watched this scene quietly, feeling a bit eerie.

Before long, accompanied by a chewing sound, the glow slowly faded away, leaving behind the stone flickering with black and white spots and a fragrant Magic Card–“Magic Power Supply”–floating in midair.

The front of this card showed a Magic Girl praying with her hands together under the night sky, with a meteor sweeping across the dark canopy; the back had no design, only a complex and exquisite pattern of Magic Power.

Magical Girl Ash extended her hand with a placid expression, catching the card and the Comet Fragment. She returned the Comet Fragment to her body while handing the card to Xiaohongmao.

Xiaohongmao took the card, looked at it for a while, then flipped it over to check the content on both sides. It was the same “Magic Power Supply” she had seen in the card library of the Alliance building, a perfect replica.
