“Flora, you ultimate child-obsessed girl, ten years ago you went crazy looking for pretty magical girls everywhere, insisting on making them your child’s dog.
If that didn’t work, being a girlfriend was barely acceptable. And yet, as a top-tier combat magical girl at the time, in your eyes, I was at best a dog for your kid. Aren’t you looking down on people a bit too much?!”
Luo Tianyou was almost suffocated by the softness pressing from behind, barely turning her head.
“I never said anything like that…”
The one pressing her down was an extremely beautiful young woman.
Her brows were like autumn water, her cheeks tinged with peach blossom, her cherry lips full.
Golden hair flowed naturally over fragrant shoulders, strands crossing together.
Her simple loungewear couldn’t hide her soft curves, and a sliver of flat, fair belly peeked out—if anything, it made her beauty seem even more spontaneous and natural.
She really looked like a big golden retriever at home, clinging and begging for a hug.
Such a thought flashed through Luo Tianyou’s mind.
Under the moonlight, Liuli’s dark brows rose slightly in surprise.
“Are you Flora? Why has your appearance changed?”
The Flora before her indeed wore the Starlight Trajectory Battle Suit, and though this face was also exquisitely beautiful, with the same violet eyes, there was no other resemblance.
They seemed like two different people.
Well, that made sense.
Flora was truly dead.
After all, being hit by that level of annihilation magic, no one in the world could survive.
She had only felt a flicker of hope upon seeing Flora’s Service Sales online, thinking maybe that shameless ghost wasn’t really dead.
But it seemed she had thought too much.
So, the person before her was probably Flora’s Lineage, possessing Flora’s battle suit…
Her child!!
Moonlight Liuli suddenly leaned closer, her sharp nose almost touching Luo Tianyou’s cheek.
She took a deep breath, as if confirming her scent.
“This smell…it’s right. Though much fainter, it’s definitely Flora’s feel. You’re her daughter? What’s your name?”
“I am…Luo Tianyou.”
Being stared at made Luo Tianyou’s scalp tingle.
She wanted to deny it, but remembering the over ten million and a prison sentence, the words died in her throat.
Pretending to be the real “Flora” wasn’t realistic now either.
This crazy woman seemed to know her mother well—any lie would be exposed instantly.
Her voice was as faint as a mosquito’s, her cheeks flushing naturally with shame and nervousness.
This delicate appearance only confirmed her as Flora’s daughter in Moonlight Liuli’s eyes.
Liuli’s fingers gently brushed Luo Tianyou’s hair, sliding down to her cheek, muttering to herself.
“Luo Tianyou… That ultimate child-obsessed Flora really had a kid. If it were a boy, I’d have chopped him down to end her bloodline, but to think she had such a cute daughter…”
Then, as if remembering something, a wicked smile curled on her lips.
“Well then, according to our agreement— I, Moonlight Liuli, am your dog from today on, Master. We’ll live together from now on.”
“Eh?!!”
Luo Tianyou’s eyes widened in shock.
Wait! This script isn’t right!
Wasn’t I supposed to easily get ten million just by accompanying Moonlight Liuli in a daddy’s life?
What do you mean the object of this daddy’s life was a dog found by my own mother, and the dog is also my Debt holder, and I even owe her three jin, and now she wants to live with me?
Bro, I’m a man! If we really live together, won’t everything be exposed?!
“It’s not like that, Miss Moonlight Liuli, I have nothing to do with you. Flora was just my mother’s codename as a magical girl. It was just a joke at the time, not real. My mother doesn’t consider herself a magical girl anymore either…”
Luo Tianyou tried to escape from Moonlight Liuli’s embrace, but Liuli’s arms tightened around her slim waist, pulling her closer.
Their warm, soft bodies pressed together, heat and touch passing through the thin battle suit fabric.
“Master, once a magical girl, always a magical girl. Do you want to renege on your Debt? Flora promised herself, saying I had good potential and allowed me to be her future child’s dog.”
Then hurry up and bark for me and give me money, and don’t ever find me again.
She didn’t dare say that out loud.
Luo Tianyou shrank pitifully in Moonlight Liuli’s arms, like a frightened little rabbit.
Liuli seemed satisfied with her reaction.
Suddenly, a syringe appeared in her hand, and she gently pressed the needle tip against Luo Tianyou’s fair neck.
“Don’t be scared, Master. This is a Moonlight Contract. Once injected, part of my magic source will resonate with your Starlight Power. You won’t be able to escape anymore.”
Before Luo Tianyou could react, Liuli’s wrist moved.
“Ugh!”
A prick of pain shot through her neck, and cold liquid quickly entered her body.
“What…what did you inject me with?!”
Luo Tianyou felt a wave of heat spreading through her veins along with the liquid, her body turning weak and her chest itching.
Moonlight Liuli tossed aside the empty syringe, satisfied as she watched a silver mark, shaped like a crescent moon entwined with stars, appear on Luo Tianyou’s neck.
“Of course, it’s something that will make Master obedient…ah no, something that lets me better sense Master’s needs.”
Liuli said as she gently pushed the now-weak, dazed Luo Tianyou toward the extravagant lakeside villa.
“W-wait…where are you taking me…”
Luo Tianyou struggled in vain.
She felt like a butterfly caught in a spider’s web, being dragged away like a dog by this self-proclaimed dog-woman.
Moonlight Liuli smiled alluringly.
“Of course, it’s home, my dear little Master.”
“From today, you are my possession. That over ten million is my Bride Price for you, Master, okay?”
“Don’t worry. I’ll take good care of you, just as Flora hoped all those years ago.”
Luo Tianyou looked in despair at the slowly opening villa doors, her heart filled with only one thought.
Mother! Your son is doomed.

—
Flora, fifteen years ago one of the world’s top three combat magical girls.
Her Starry Sky Magical Girl brilliance illuminated an era, and carved an indelible mark upon Moonlight Liuli’s heart.
Ten years ago, on that night, as a newly risen top combat magical girl, the Moonlight Witch Moonlight Liuli had her own pride.
Her golden hair shone, and her stance was composed.
And then, she saw that figure.
Flora sat atop a massive stone monument, her slender legs swinging.
“Hey, you. Not bad potential. All shiny, looks expensive, also cute. Good for keeping as a pet.”
Moonlight Liuli frowned, uncomfortable with the legendary Predecessor’s opening line.
“Flora-senpai, what do you want from me?”
Flora leapt down lightly, patted her skirt, and leaned in front of Moonlight Liuli, looking her up and down.
“Not really advice, but your roots are unique, your magic pure—a perfect thing to be my child’s dog!”
