The villainous magical girl's daily mission is to find fault.

Chapter 636 A Slight Misunderstanding

Good morning, Sasha.

the next morning.

The eagle owl girl finished her morning flight practice and landed gracefully on the rooftop as always, but this time there was someone standing beside her, waving and greeting her.

This caught her off guard—she was used to having a flight training session in the morning, then going home to make breakfast, before flying to school or resting at home for a while to do some homework. She had always been alone and never thought that suddenly there would be someone watching her.

Even after becoming a magical girl, her daily routine didn't change much. At most, her morning exercise time was reduced, but she still insisted on exercising every morning without fail.

I never expected that someone would know my morning exercise routine, and it was someone I knew quite well.

"Good morning, Karin-san."

The eagle-owl girl wiped the fine beads of sweat from her forehead, pulled a towel from her bag, and simply wiped the sweat off her body.

A girl dressed in spring clothes stood to the side, smiling at her, which made Sasha's movements a little stiff, and even the usually skillful act of wiping away sweat was delayed for a moment.

"Sorry, I was doing my morning exercise and had no idea you were here..."

"It's okay, I just arrived too. I figured you'd already finished exercising before I came over," Hua Ling replied.

Sasa was not prepared for the arrival of Karin, an acquaintance—Karin was not only her magical girl companion, but they also knew each other's true identities beforehand, and she was surprised to find that Karin was even her downstairs neighbor.

Although I felt a little strange when I first learned that Karin was actually Iris... after all, it takes some time to process something like a familiar person suddenly telling you "I am actually a magical girl".

I'm the type of person who digests things relatively quickly.

Thinking about it that way, it's no wonder Iris understands me so well. After all, I get along quite well with Karin, so it's understandable that she knows me so well. But why is she here at my morning exercise spot so early...? What is she planning to do?

Asking whatever came to mind, Sasha quickly spoke up and asked:

"Did you come to see me so early because you have something important to say? Or should we...?"

"It's something important, but it's not something I have to say right now," Karin said with a wry smile, waving her hand. "Besides, you haven't had breakfast yet, have you? How about we go buy some breakfast and chat while we eat?"

Sasha blinked, hesitated for a moment about whether to say, "Let's finish talking before we eat breakfast," but her empty stomach prevented her from saying it. So she obediently followed Hualing downstairs and headed to the breakfast stall at the entrance of the community.

Two jianbing guozi (Chinese crepes), a cup of soy milk, a carton of milk, and two tea eggs—that's how the two of them had their simple breakfast.

"How do you think of this place's pancakes?" Hua Ling asked.

"Hmm, it's pretty good. I've never had anything like this before... What's this called again, Jianbing Guozi?" Sasha tilted her head, smacked her lips a few times, and answered, "Speaking of which, aren't you staying at Xiaofeng's house recently? Why did you come over so early this morning?"

"I was planning to furnish the house with the furniture I bought today, and I also wanted to talk to you about something, Sasha, so I came back a little early." The girl smiled gently, put the half-empty milk carton beside her, and straightened her posture slightly.

Seeing that she was leaning forward slightly as if she wanted to talk about serious matters, Sasha couldn't help but straighten her back, fold her wings, and look intently at her friend's face.

Hua Ling's features are quite unique; her eyes and brows exude an air of scholarly refinement. Her hobbies perfectly match this aura: reading, studying, and even writing. She has a large collection of books at home, including many foreign works that I've never even heard of.

Suddenly realizing she had been lost in thought, Sasha quickly snapped out of her reverie, just as Hualing was about to speak.

"Although I feel it might be impolite for me to bring this up, and your personal life is generally not something we can interfere with, but..."

"...You're training with Xin Yuehu and the others, right?"

Upon hearing this, Sasha tensed up almost entirely and instinctively curled up into a stick.

"Ahhh... I'm sorry... I... I just... I just felt that I had absolutely no fighting ability and would only be a burden to you, so I..."

Seeing her like this, Hua Ling looked surprised, then smiled wryly and comforted her:

"Why apologize? I didn't say you did anything wrong, Sasha. It's just that you know a lot has happened between us and Xinyuehu. Hyacinth is also quite concerned about this matter and is worried that you were deceived by Xinyuehu, which is why you went to her for magic training."

"No, no, it wasn't Xin Yuehu who asked me to go. I came to her myself," Sasha quickly said.

This was unexpected for Hua Ling. She had assumed that Xin Yuehu would have brought up the matter, but it turned out that Sasha had approached her herself.

It seems she was eager to integrate into the Hyacinth Squad, which is why she turned to Heart Moon Fox when she couldn't find a trainer. After all, Heart Moon Fox and her team do have a huge advantage in terms of overall strength.

Hua Ling felt a strange sense of guilt: if she could have taught Sasha some lessons, would Sasha have had to go to Xin Yuehu specifically for magical training?

But would her teaching really have a targeted effect on her? Karin then had this thought again.

In any case, as a senior, one must understand the situation first, and then some polite refusals are an inevitable part of the process in such situations.

"I'm the one who should apologize," Hua Ling said solemnly. "I overlooked your thoughts, Sasha. I never expected you would go to Xin Yuehu and the others to improve yourself."

After understanding each other's thoughts, Karin didn't bring it up again—she already had her answer in her heart, and instead began to discuss with Sasha the specific training program she had experienced yesterday.

"My magical foundation is very poor. Xinyuehu had two Alices of different colors teach me some basic magic so that I can practice on my own when I have nothing to do."

"I've learned basic magic missiles and magic rays, as well as defensive magic shields... but I'm still not very proficient at using them, and I have absolutely no idea how to use complex advanced magic like magic cannons."

"I see. This gradual approach is indeed very suitable for Sasha's current situation." Hua Ling nodded in agreement with Xin Yuehu's training plan.

What Sasha was talking about were very basic magic spells. Although in his opinion, magic cannons didn't have much difficulty in getting started, since he could blast a large monster to the ground with one shot when he first transformed, he couldn't quite understand Sasha's current predicament.

"If that's the case, what's your training program for tonight? Did Xin Yuehu tell you beforehand?" Hua Ling asked, showing some interest.

Sasha nodded gently.

"Yes, I already mentioned it last night."

"My training program today is to launch a close-range attack while flying at full speed."

"Hellcat-senpai said he'd teach me personally!"
