kiloters outside Saint Karno City.
Yingbai Town.
Not far from the town, there’s an afternoon tea picnic event called "Don’t think about the results after the finals, just focus on getting back to work".
Hosted by Shami.
The picnic guests include Magical Girl Saili, who won the idol competition, Elf Maiden Lureya as the runner-up, Heroic Maiden Lina and Dragon Race Maiden Elze tied for third place, and Bone Fra, who ranked 12th.
Now, the four girls are sitting barefoot on a large plaid picnic cloth, with their shoes neatly placed outside.
In the center of the group are all kinds of delicious foods.
The choice of picnic location is deliberate.
This is a flower plantation, and the open space they occupy is surrounded by flowers, allowing them to sll various floral fragrances. Nearby, there are several cherry blossom trees in bloom, with pink petals occasionally drifting in the breeze, paired with warm sunshine — perfect for cherry blossom viewing.
The reason we can see cherry blossoms in November is thanks to the high-altitude plateau and unique climate.
"This picnic title is, frankly, just a polite version of ’The seven-day holiday is over, don’t think about it, hurry back to work at the company’."
The Elf Maiden complains discontentedly.
"Is it really okay for us to sit here? This seems like a private garden."
The white-haired girl looks around.
"Relax, even with all these colored flowers, I can blend into the background quickly."
The Dragon Race Maiden lightly taps her tail on the picnic cloth.
"I saw Shami knock out the garden owner and drag them into the warehouse earlier, so we’re temporarily safe."
The Magical Girl calmly picks up an exquisite little teacup and takes a sip.
Shami runs out of the garden, carrying dishes made using the garden owner’s kitchen.
"What’s knocking out? I paid them; they just won’t realize until they wake up. If it weren’t for wanting to reward you properly, I wouldn’t do such a thing."
Shami approaches the picnic cloth and lets out a sigh.
The four girls look over together.
"Shami really put a lot of effort into preparing, didn’t she?"
"Exactly, she spent two days organizing the picnic after the finals, handling everything herself from choosing the location to arranging the food."
"Because she saw our incredible strength."
"That’s the look of seeing a bright future."
"Enough chatter, enjoy the food."
Shami interrupts the four girls.
"Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore, sit down quickly."
The Elf Maiden glances at Shami, scoots to the right, leaving a space on the left.
anwhile, the other three girls do the sa with perfect synchronization.
They rotate positions on the picnic cloth by 30° clockwise, but maintain the sa distance.
"..."
The four exchange a silent gaze.
Speechless, yet it speaks volus.
Just then, a figure slowly approaches.
Shami waves them over.
The newcor is Theo, invited by Shami.
"What kind of place did you choose, Shami? I searched for half an hour!"
"Couldn’t pick a crowded spot. But you’re here just in ti, Theo, we didn’t dare start eating without you."
Shami warmly welcos Theo.
No one expected Theo to ultimately vote for the Magical Girl.
Looking now, it seems to be the optimal vote.
After the contest, the Magical Girl firmly established her popularity in Fata and beca the Preparatory Saintess.
"Hey, is everyone here?"
Theo looks at the four girls in surprise.
"Yes, all familiar faces. From now on, they’ll be ’acquaintances on the road’ with you."
"That’s a pretty low relationship status!"
"Find a spot to sit first."
Shami’s invitation to Theo echoes.
The four girls hurriedly fill up the remaining space on the picnic cloth.
"Uh, there’s no room left."
"Hmm..."
"I don’t plan to go there. You’ve all taken off your shoes; how can anyone eat with the sll of feet?"
Theo disdainfully shakes his head.
Huh? Did he just call Shami’s food slly?
The four girls’ gazes show anger.
Shami quickly positions her body in the middle.
Still not at the level to read the girls’ inner thoughts, the demon lord only notices their expressions.
"Then sit with , there’s no space left there."
Shami invites Theo to sit on another picnic cloth nearby.
"Why is there a skeleton?"
"Oh, it’s for decoration."
"I’ll go to the restroom first."
"Straight ahead to the end on the right. Rember, don’t wake the sleeping people."
"Oh, okay."
Theo runs off.
The tense bodies of the four girls gradually relax.
Besides Shami, letting other unfamiliar males get close is already uncomfortable, let alone soone like Theo.
After briefly summarizing the finals, Shami enters the eating ti, with the four girls savoring the small desserts in front of them.
The Magical Girl is in high spirits.
Even if she doesn’t know why Theo voted for her, it’s likely he was drawn to her Magical Girl charm. In any case, claiming the championship in the end, the Magical Girl scans the three girls beside her with slight smugness.
This proves sothing important — in this contest of popularity based on looks, figure, and aura, she triumphed over the other three.
Sorry, but the Magical Girl is the rightful ruler.
