Starting from a Magical Girl, Dominating Eternity-Chapter 348 - 118: Zi Yuan’s Warm Breath

Hyacinth is the first Magical Girl of the Beihai Disaster Strategy Bureau.

When she joined the Beihai Disaster Strategy Bureau, there were no other Magical Girls there.

She fought alone, dealt with the citizens alone, and even attended press conferences alone to respond to the questions of reporters and the public.

Almost all the work was done by her alone.

In fact, she didn’t have to work so hard because the Disaster Strategy Bureau itself could handle some tasks.

It was Magical Girl Hyacinth’s own request; she wanted to take on all the work.

She liked everyone’s smiles, appreciated their gratitude, and enjoyed their trust and admiration.

For Hyacinth, being a Magical Girl wasn’t a hardship; fighting or responding to the support of the citizens was a happy and joyful thing.

For a long time, there was only her as the Magical Girl in the Disaster Strategy Bureau.

Saving others, defeating Disaster Beasts, enjoying cheers and respect, all of the affection and gratitude were solely hers.

Back then, the entire Disaster Strategy Bureau revolved around her, and no matter where she went, people would inquire about her.

Miss Hyacinth, what do you want to do? Little Sister Hyacinth, what do you want? Does Little Hyacinth have time today...

She wasn’t really a person who sought vanity.

It’s just that for a long time, she enjoyed too much praise and love, which led her to lose herself somewhat.

She mistakenly thought that these things should all belong to her.

Until the second Magical Girl appeared.

Susan, or rather, Magical Girl Zu Lu, wasn’t a person who liked to interact with others.

She seemed very impatient with the citizens, reporters, and even the staff at the Disaster Strategy Bureau who approached her.

But perhaps because of such an attitude, her always solitary style, ended up attracting a large fan base.

Within the Disaster Strategy Bureau, she was quite popular too – including later Yin Luo, who was also a fan of Susan’s.

Her attention diminished, the admiration and love she received also lessened.

Of course, this wasn’t necessarily a bad thing in reality.

Because Susan’s arrival relieved her of many burdens, especially later when Peony joined the team, and more Magical Girls came to the Disaster Strategy Bureau.

Magical Girl, became a team, rather than just a personal label.

The team is the best.

Everyone told her this, and she thought so too.

But the disappointment was still unavoidable.

Because she didn’t have many other hobbies.

Hyacinth’s studies were excellent; even while busy with Magical Girl duties, her grades never lagged.

At home, she could always fulfill her parents’ expectations in the most perfect manner; though her parents were busy, and even though they lived together, opportunities to meet were very few and far between, Hyacinth never caused any trouble at home.

She was the most outstanding child in everyone’s eyes, no matter what she did, she could do it best.

Everyone in the Disaster Strategy Bureau said she might be like Senior Sister Cui Que.

Become an admirable and excellent Magical Girl.

But in truth, she was far from it, because besides that, Hyacinth had nothing else.

She didn’t like watching anime movies, she wasn’t interested in games, and although she made friends, she didn’t actually like going out to play, because in her view, it was somewhat a waste of time.

Hyacinth felt no joy in any of it.

It was like being in an empty big house every day, waiting for her parents, empty and pointless.

She didn’t like meaningless things, she didn’t like things without results, and she was not interested in things that couldn’t affect life.

Hyacinth, had only everything as a Magical Girl.

So, actually, she didn’t like additional Magical Girls.

Ultimately, the situation in Beihai at the time only needed her as a Magical Girl.

Whether it was the Disaster Beast or the Witch Association, she could handle it alone.

Whether it was the admiration or the cheers of others, she could bear it alone, unlike anyone else.

She could only survive as a Magical Girl.

There was once an occasion when the Magical Girls of the Disaster Strategy Bureau went for team-building, playing by the seaside.

Someone suddenly asked her:

"Hyacinth, why did you become a Magical Girl?"

She remembers that day the grand, desolate sunset dyed the sea red, the horizon swallowing the setting sun teetering in the blood-colored evening. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Until it was completely dark.

Why did I become a Magical Girl?

This was quite a difficult question for Hyacinth to answer.

Susan and Peony joined the Disaster Strategy Bureau around the same time; they both became Magical Girls to protect others.

But for the empty Hyacinth, she didn’t have such a strong desire.

Why did she get the seed back then?

It was simply that when the Disaster Beast descended, she thought it would be boring for everyone to die here.

She thought, if she could become a Magical Girl and save everyone, maybe it would be fun.

And she casually obtained the Miracle Seed.

The truth proved it was indeed fun, whether it was saving others, being thanked by others, or continually using her power to change the city, the destinies, and lives of others.

But saying she became a Magical Girl out of interest was too un-Magical Girl-like.

It didn’t fit the Disaster Strategy Bureau’s narrative.

So she said, "Because I wanted to protect others back then."

The most official, standard, and safe answer.

Everyone said the same thing, wanting to protect family, wanting to protect friends, wanting to protect teachers and classmates...
