I really don't want to be a magical girl anymore

Chapter 122【】The so-called brave men are the ones with bad brains
Cang Yan was half-dream and half-awake, swimming in the grotesque dream world.

Cang Yan just had a dream, dreaming that time began to reverse, dreaming that everything returned to the original point.

The world in front of my eyes is passing by quickly.

In the end, he came to a strange time and space full of birdsong and flowers, and was full of dead silence. Cang Yan could not know where it was located, nor could he understand why it existed.

It seems to exist only in the world of consciousness.

Here the wide sea is neither flowing nor choppy.

It seems that the whole planet has died, died in this closed world, on the corpse of the ocean, a lonely continent is wandering, slowly wandering in this strange ornamental bottle.

The continent is not vast.

The sparrow is small, but it has all five internal organs.

There are mountains, rivers, forests, deserts, and plains.

It's as if someone purposely crammed a microcosm of the world into this place.

Or rather.

This place is actually the reflection of a certain world, just like the moon in the water and the flower in the mirror.

Unreal and unrealistic.

Cang Yan gradually understood the nature of this world unconsciously.

This is the phantom of the past, and it is the memory locked deep in [her] soul.

Just like the situation where he obtained the memory fragments of the sage civilization before, Cang Yan watched everything that Christo experienced from the first perspective.

It's just very strange why I can see the experience of Christo again when I am in a coma.

And this time Cang Yan can vaguely feel that there is another existence beside her.

It is also watching something.

The hazy picture appeared in fragments, quickly flashing past Cang Yan's eyes.

The unconscious Cang Yan felt that she was lying on top of the stone pile, and all the surrounding movements could not escape her sensitive hearing, whether it was the sound of water dripping from the stalactites in the depths of the cave, or the chirping of chicks waiting for their mother to feed them in the distant trees. The voice, the sound is ear-piercing, very clear,

Therefore, Cang Yan didn't need to open his eyes, but he could sense the two teenagers standing beside him, young and reckless and stupid,
"Evil dragon, please die!"

They were dressed in shabby clothes, pale and emaciated, and looked poor and desolate. They should be around fifteen or sixteen years old.

One of the black-haired teenagers shouted the slogan of slaying the dragon.

So stupid and overreaching.

Only his buddies stopped him.

It was a silver-haired boy with a more feminine appearance.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Dragon, he's out of his mind, we'll leave right away."

"Hey, what are you doing, I want to slay a dragon!"

The silver-haired boy wanted to forcefully drag his companion away.

However, the disparity in strength between the two was too great, and the black-haired boy broke free.

"I am a brave man!"

"How can you shrink back like this!"

As he spoke, he shook the sword in his hand.

"I still think this is too unreliable. Just because you pulled out the magic sword, you were chosen as the hero? And the name of the magic sword is very dangerous. And the village chief is suspicious anyway. What do you mean by "As the first trial of a brave man, please kill the evil dragon in the northern mountains!" How can a brave man challenge the final boss at the beginning? Then this evil dragon kidnapped the princess in a very clichéd way. What is the name? Wei..."

"Violet Veneto"

The black-haired young man who seemed to have a bad mind added a sentence.

However, this also caused his companion to burst out a series of questions from his mouth at a faster rate.

"Yes, it's this princess. Since the princess of my own country has been kidnapped, why don't I send the army to rescue it myself, but rely on two complete strangers?!"

"Because of the war..."

The tone of the black-haired boy suddenly lost.

If it weren't for these damned wars.

How could they leave their homes.

flee here.

"I also know that this trip is dangerous, but I have to do it..."

Whether it's the small vault of the dragon or the bounty of the Adventurer's Association.

That's all an astronomical number.

For him who is desperate for money, this is the fastest shortcut, selling his soul and life, even if it means sending him to death.

"Because of your sister's cursed body..."

As a silver-haired boy who also grew up in a village.

Naturally, I know the condition of my sister's body.

Villagers say she was cursed by a demon.

The only priest in the village couldn't expel this curse at all, he could only temporarily delay the pain, and each time he healed the priest, he would charge a huge amount of money. He also said that if he wanted to be completely cured, he could only ask the bishop in the church to expel the curse himself.

It seems that these hypocritical beasts only know how to exploit the people...

Even if the old cows and houses on the family's farmland were sold, it was still not enough to pay for the treatment. Coupled with the outbreak of the war, even small business could no longer be done.

Can only find another way out.

For example, when a writing adventurer reads as a mercenary or something.

Unexpectedly, the two of them heard rumors of the Sword in the Stone just after they traveled here.

And the black-haired boy who wanted to join in the fun dragged himself to watch.

Finally, serendipity.

That was also under the dazed expressions of the two of them.

The black-haired boy picked up the sword in the stone that fell on the ground.

"Oh, so much! The hero of destiny is born!"

The wild village chief appeared.

"Wait a minute, Uncle Village! He didn't pull it out! It's because the sword wasn't inserted firmly, and it fell off by itself!!"

The silver-haired boy's complaints did not have any effect.

Because the black-haired boy's eyes had begun to glow.

Excited.

The silver-haired boy patted his forehead.

heart said.

How could I have forgotten that he is a fanatical fan of Brave Quest O? You must know that he has liked playing games of pretending to be a brave man since he was a child.

So there is no need for the village elder to say anything.

The black-haired boy jumped into the pit by himself.

This child is really hopeless...

The black-haired boy put on the best armor in the village—cloth armor sewn from a few pieces of rags.

Also took the well-crafted shield - a wooden water tank cover.

His feet were also replaced with fast boots that allowed him to walk lightly—two rotten grass boots of different sizes.

The equipment is so simple.

The only reliable thing in the whole body.

It's just the magic sword called Levadin in his hand.

But the hero uses a magic sword or something...

It sounds even more unreliable!

Therefore, this is also the reason why the silver-haired boy is so mad.

The giant dragon is not something that can be defeated for the sake of justice.

This is not going to slay a dragon, it is clearly being slaughtered by a dragon...

"They say you don't stop me anymore! Dragon, let the princess go obediently, and then surrender to the sword of the brave!"

"..."

Cang Yan has no interest in them.

After all, there have been too many overwhelmed human beings trying to get rich in these years.

It's almost time to get used to this situation.

So Cang Yan turned over and continued to sleep. Seeing the giant dragon move in front of him, the two teenagers were so frightened that they quickly took two steps back vigilantly.

His eyes were full of horror.

Seeing that the dragon was only moving unconsciously in sleep, they breathed a sigh of relief.

It was really scary.

Seeing this, the two continued to talk.

"Speaking of which you have become a hero, then what am I..."

"Uh, commoner A from the brave country?"

"Why are you a brave man and I'm just a commoner!"

"Because I am the protagonist, and you are just a sideshow."

"Don't say anything you don't understand."

"Since this is the case, according to the legend, the brave has an opponent who always challenges him, called the old enemy or something, so my lord will be merciful and recognize you as the brave's lifelong enemy!"

"The ghost wants to be the old enemy of a half-hearted brave like you!"

"Don't be arrogant, just accept my challenge obediently, my old enemy!"

"You are the proud one! Your whole family is arrogant! Don't add any strange attributes to me without authorization, and don't talk to yourself there!"

Speaking of which, the silver-haired boy has a solution.

"I remember that when fighting the final boss, does the brave have to fight the old enemy first, and then add memory killing and sad bgm, no matter what the result is, let's start with a sensational wave."

The silver-haired boy thought, no matter what method he used, he had to trick his companions out. Otherwise, if the dragon became serious about them, two people might not be enough for him to squeeze between his teeth.

He wasn't sure his excuses about running the train would work either.

However, he still overestimated his friend...

The black-haired boy even hammered his hand, acting as if he had suddenly realized.

"It makes sense!"

You are still right...

Sure enough he was an idiot.

Why would he feel guilty for fooling him!

The silver-haired boy complained wildly in his heart.

"only……"

Facing the unarmed silver-haired boy, he hesitated for a moment, and the black-haired boy looked down at his feet.

All around are the weapons left behind by those who have overreached themselves.

He picked up something and threw it to the silver-haired boy.

It was the most common iron gun.

"But, I don't know spear skills..."

If it's a hoe, he's fairly proficient, after all, the silver-haired boy used to be the leader in farming.

However, let's just deal with it and figure out a way later.

The picture was gradually blurred, and the noisy voice was far away from Cang Yan's ears.

Cang Yan thought in her heart that she could finally be a little purer...

At this time, another voice rang in the ear.

"Krystal, look what we got!"

That was the cheerful voice of Yinlong.

It is flying over in a hurry from afar.

Cang Yan thought that it was thanks to this guy's efforts that he was called the evil dragon...

Catherine, a metal dragon, was her playmate since she was a child, and also the maid and guard her mother found for her.

Some time ago, two young dragons sneaked out of Dragon Island and started their dream adventure.

It was said to be a big adventure, but Cang Yan stayed in the cave and slept all day, but the silver dragon Catherine played the role of the evil dragon in the human stereotype.

Afterwards, Catherine saw two teenagers holding weapons at the entrance of the huge cave, and the smile of the giant dragon flying in the air disappeared instantly.

"Humans, what are you doing here!!"

what? !

There is actually a second dragon? !

The silver-haired boy exclaimed.

This one was much more vicious than the one inside, and even the silver-haired boy could feel a killing intent.

Can not help but start to feel weak legs.

"Dragon~ I am the brave Geralt chosen by fate, I came here specially... woo woo..."

Fortunately, the silver-haired boy has quick hands and eyes.

He gagged his mouth before he could say the most crucial words.

"It's nothing, we just lost our way. When we saw the cave, we thought about staying there, but we didn't expect it to be the lair of Your Excellency the Dragon."

"We're leaving now, we're leaving now..."

While talking, the silver-haired boy dragged the struggling black-haired boy on the way down the mountain.

He didn't even know where this guy got the courage to dare to challenge the giant dragon so much.

"Woooooooo..."

"Wait a minute."

A bright girlish voice came from behind the dragon.

After hearing the sound of stopping his actions, the silver-haired boy began to stiffen all over.

He turned his head and saw a figure jumping down from the dragon's back. It was a blond girl dressed as a maid, with a pretty face and extremely eye-catching.

"What's the name of the black long sword in your hand?"

The blond girl saw that it was very familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen something similar.

Geralt had re-stretched his arms that were holding him back. "Listen well, my weapon is Levadin who can burn everything in the world!"

Hearing the question from the pretty girl, the young man inevitably felt like showing off.

"So you are a hero?"

Violet obviously thought of this legend about Levadin.

"Yes, I am a brave man!"

"Miss maid, please stand back a little, I'm afraid my magic sword will hurt you."

The actions of the black-haired boy looked very gentlemanly.

"When did you know how to use the magic sword? Obviously, I only use it as an ax for chopping wood."

The silver-haired boy continued to complain.

"Dragon, if you are sensible, just obediently hand over the princess you kidnapped, and I can spare you!"

"Who will spare and who will not die? You idiot must at least see the current situation clearly."

The silver-haired boy felt a little powerless to complain.

"You guys are actually brave?"

Yinlong stretched his neck and looked at this tattered "brave".

She has also seen many adventurers who claim to be brave in her life. This is the first time she has seen such an inflated person. This human being is really interesting, I am afraid he is a fool.

"Yes, my uncle is a brave man, so hurry up and release the kidnapped Princess Veneto!"

"Hey, how many times have I told you. Don't pull my clothes."

Geralt, who was confronting the dragon, turned his head and wanted to yell at his companions, but suddenly found that the person pulling his clothes was a blonde maid.

"Ah, Miss Maid, please don't be afraid, I will protect your safety!"

"Pfft hahaha..."

Silver Dragon Catherine laughed out of character.

"Hey, what are you laughing at!"

"I said, did you come here so stupidly that you didn't even know what the person you rescued looked like?"

"Uh... the village chief did not say anything."

Facing the puzzled boy, Violet coughed twice in embarrassment,

"Ahem, I am Princess Veneto."

"what?!"

Both were shocked.

"Why do you look like this..."

"I see! Have you been coerced by the giant dragon? Sure enough, the dragon is a guy with evil tastes."

Geralt was straightforward and said what came to his mind.

"No, I was not kidnapped or coerced. I dressed like this on my own initiative."

Violet shook her head and explained to the two of them.

She is seeking the protection of the dragon, otherwise she would not be alive in this world,

So in order to repay her kindness, Violet took the initiative to dress herself as a maid.

From being served by others to serving others.

This is not just a change of status, but also a change of mentality.

Cang Yan climbed out of the cave with slow steps, feeling the temperature of the setting sun. The body of the crimson crystal dragon looked more crystal clear and sacred under the sun, the crystal was shining, the magic power was surging, every breath of Cang Yan Can bring up a magic storm. As the strongest genius of the strongest dragon species, Cang Yan's combat power has long stood on top of the world.

So compared to these two humans, Cang Yan cares more about what the Silver Dragon Maid brings.

Because Cang Yan had already sensed the huge fluctuation of magic power coming from the silver dragon Catherine's claws.

"What are you holding in your hand?"

Mentioning this, Yinlong instantly became excited.

"I'm telling you. I found something great today! This is it!"

Speaking of which, Catherine handed Cang Yan a well-crafted and handsome prop.

"This is the magic tool newly invented by mankind!"

A complete and functioning magic tool appeared in Catherine's claws. Cang Yan carefully pinched it up and put it in front of her eyes.

It seems to be highly similar to the magic girl's transformation device.

This was Cang Yan's own thought.

Suddenly, the picture gradually became fragmented until it completely dissipated, and deeper memories appeared in front of Cang Yan.

Cang Yan's angle of view gradually zoomed in and out.

Gradually out of the first perspective.

she sees.

A huge silver door stands eternally in the endless and boundless nothingness.

Christo turned back into human form, and the red-haired young girl in the starry sky dress stood in front of the door stupidly, took two steps forward, and put her palm on it.

The silver-white door opened suddenly.

In a trance.

Cang Yan saw an unknown object that seemed to be a polymer of billions of brilliant spheres.

He stands in the depths of the void, watching the universe and the continuation of civilization.

Little stars illuminate the sea of ​​consciousness.

Dreams are shattered, and the real world is reassembled.

Cang Yan, who was talking in her sleep, woke up from the nightmare, and she was a little confused about what she saw.

Cang Yan opened her eyes, she saw a light sleeping face, long eyelashes trembling slightly, black long straight hair hanging down to her waist, recurved horns on top of her head, dark black wool growing on her arms, and her fingers were also melted. For the claws, the dehumanized part and the beauty's body are fused together to add a mysterious color.

If those inhuman parts were removed, Cang Yan could easily recognize the identity of this mature woman exuding maternal brilliance—the Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows.

Sensing the awakening of the sleeping person on her lap, the queen of the land of shadows also opened her eyes, and the indifferent and bewitching vertical pupils regained their luster.

She is smiling.

"Are you awake? Cub."
