Demi-human Girls Completion Manual-Chapter 954 - 44: Magic Genius

The room arrangements at night were very simple; except for Helair, each person had a separate cottage.

Helair, that madman, seemed up to something, saying she needed some fresh air and would be back in the morning, then walked into the night, slowly disappearing.

She’s a Mythical Species, so no one else needed to worry about her. In fact, Fisher even felt compelled to silently grieve for the others; after all, considering this fun-loving Angel’s nature, going out for some air wasn’t just about getting some fresh air.

After Tangze Asuka and Fisher bid each other goodnight, she returned to her own room. The bed was well-equipped with blankets, making it quite comfortable to lie on.

She lay there blankly, staring at the candlelight in the room, lost in her thoughts.

She was indeed feeling a bit bewildered; this sense of not fitting in made her quite uncomfortable. It was as if she had graduated from high school overnight and entered the workforce, taking on projects that others could barely handle with decades of experience.

Or rather, the pressure she was feeling now was even heavier than that.

As she pondered, she felt a bit upset and turned on her side, clutching the blanket beside her, covering her head, while muttering and pounding the pillow,

"What high school student saving the world, it’s all a lie..."

She curled up in the blanket; at this time and place, in the stillness of the night within the covers, it seemed like only here could she truly calm down a bit, revealing her true emotions.

Humans appeared so insignificant in this world, with other terrifying creatures possessing abilities beyond her imagination. What had happened before couldn’t even be explained or reconstructed with science, let alone she was just an ordinary member of the human race.

She couldn’t even handle her schoolwork properly, nor did she have any outstanding skills or abilities, and dealing with people was out of the question...

Mr. Mikhail knew a lot and had brought impressive technologies from the future; she had nothing, not even the female high school uniform she brought, which was corroded by that strange Angel toy.

So why was it her who traveled over instead of someone else?

Tangze Asuka felt increasingly perplexed; perhaps she had asked herself this question more than once, maybe it was just fate, and the transmigration quota randomly landed on her, the unlucky one.

Of course, Tangze Asuka had no choice but to try to make her life in the Otherworld smooth.

On the bright side, at least she was lucky that the companions she met so far were friendly and reliable; otherwise, if she had reincarnated into the slave area of the Tree Continent or the Holy Land, she would have had a very miserable life.

Just on such a night, she would have some fantasies.

For example, being like the protagonist in anime or novels with special abilities, like being able to transform into a Magic Girl in "Sailor Moon," or perhaps having the talent to pilot Unit-02?

As Tangze Asuka fantasized, she suddenly lifted her head from the quilt, as if a sudden inspiration struck her, and she noticed a term she had heard in this world before.

It seemed...

Did Mr. Fisher ever ask Mr. Gou Wen if magic existed?

Although Mr. Fisher wasn’t a Transferee, he seemed somewhat different from the local Whale-man, Mr. Gou Wen. Where did he come from, and why was he so strong?

Could it be because of the "magic" he mentioned?

Could she perhaps learn magic from Mr. Fisher?

This way, at least... she wouldn’t feel so useless.

But suddenly, she remembered that sense of alienation she once felt, hesitating, afraid of the awkwardness if she asked and got rejected...

"Ugh, it’s so frustrating!"

Tangze Asuka thought she was being a bit melodramatic. She buried her head in the pillow again, determined to ask Mr. Fisher about it tomorrow morning. Even if she got rejected, it didn’t matter.

At worst... just feel a bit awkward...

As she lay there, she suddenly felt something hard poking at her chest, causing her to wince in pain and sit up. As she reached down to touch it, she found the carving knife Helair had given her in the morning still in her pocket; the sharp blade scared her pale, and she quickly threw it away.

"I... I almost stabbed myself with this thing?"

She was annoyed at her own drowsiness and stupidity. Tangze Asuka hurriedly patted her face to wake up, turning off the light and lying on her side to sleep.

Tomorrow, tomorrow will surely be better.

She thought so.

As darkness enveloped the whole room, the dim moonlight slowly seeped through the cracks of the wooden house, casting a series of bright moonlight on the floor.

At the far end of the moonlight, the tip of the carved knife on the floor gleamed with a bit of dazzling metallic luster under the moonlight.

Tangze Asuka’s closed eyes twitched under the glare of the light, feeling a bit annoyed. She reached out to grab the carving knife, intending to put it in a place where the moonlight couldn’t reach it...

"Dong! Dong! Dong!"

Suddenly, Tangze Asuka subconsciously realized the hollow, distant sound of the wooden fish once again resonated in her ears... or rather, had that sound always been there, and she just hadn’t noticed it?
