-The Magical Girl Circle has received bad news…
Beside her, an electronic screen was reporting the news endlessly, but Su Yu was completely oblivious to everything outside at this moment.
“Boss… I feel like my body is heating up. Is something really going to happen?”
Since taking the potion, she felt her body constantly hot, and besides that, she felt something had changed.
“This is a normal phenomenon. Relax.”
Lin Mo checked his watch and comforted her:
“According to past experimental data, the potion’s effect should have kicked in by now. If the only symptom is a hot body, then there’s no big problem.”
“But I think…”
“Alright, stop talking nonsense. Trust science.”
Lin Mo slapped the table with his hand, interrupting the girl.
“Now, follow me to the Range. I want to see the specific improvement results.”
“Does the potion work this fast?”
“Of course, this is my creation.”
“Alright then…”
Su Yu sighed, had no choice but to jump off the chair, and followed while covering her arm.

The two quickly arrived at the Range and repeated the previous test.
However, you don’t know until you test.
The test shocked them.
As the girl cast the previous Fireball spell again and hit the target, even Lin Mo, who had seen many ups and downs, couldn’t hide his excitement:
“Magic Energy, Level 5!”
In just half an hour, her Magic Energy Level had directly increased by a full two levels, a situation that had never occurred in his previous experiments.
“Unbelievable… Could it be excessive improvement due to Magic Affinity? But she’s completely immune to magic… The effect shouldn’t be so obvious… What exactly happened?”
Seeing Lin Mo deep in thought, Su Yu wisely didn’t disturb him.
She just stood quietly by the side, constantly turning her hands over, a bit unable to believe that all this was caused by her…
‘This guy didn’t lie to me… He actually could let me use such a powerful spell. To say I’m not excited would definitely be fake…’
Su Yu was somehow a bit dazed, a strange emotion welled up in her heart.
Not having Magical Talent had always been a major regret in her heart, and she had once thought she had transmigrated for nothing.
But now that she could truly grasp the power unique to this world, her mentality seemed to have undergone some change.
It made her feel… full of passion for the world.
“No, we can’t waste any more time.”
Lin Mo returned to reality from his brain storm, slapped the girl on the shoulder, his eyes full of fervor and excitement.
“If I can’t figure this out, it will become the regret of my lifetime. Time is pressing, let’s go do the next test now.”
Su Yu smiled helplessly, just about to speak, but was grabbed by the arm and forcefully dragged away.
“Hey hey hey, what are you doing? I can walk by myself!”
The girl protested in panic, because she found that this seemingly frail scientist was much stronger than she imagined, and completely lacked chivalry.
“Ow ow ow, you don’t have to grip so tight, hey!”
—
Who knows how many hours passed…
The crazy experiment drained the last bit of strength from Su Yu’s body.
Now her face was pale, and she lay on the sofa unable to get up.
Meanwhile, Lin Mo, who had been busy nonstop, was in a completely different mental state.
Although his eyes were bloodshot, his excitement was impossible to hide.
“Interesting, really interesting… This reaction has never been seen before. Perhaps we can find another improvement method.”
“We’ve collected enough data today. Data analysis might take some time. There’s nothing I need you for now. Come back when I need you.”
He had gotten too much data today; he estimated he would need to lock himself away for several days to get concrete conclusions.
Seeing the dismissal order given, Su Yu couldn’t help but turn her head to look at him, slightly hesitant to speak.
‘Does this guy really have no sympathy at all? Using me and then throwing me away, what’s the difference from the so-called player?’
However, despite her displeasure, she actually wanted to get off work early anyway.
Even though she felt like her bones were about to break, she still grimaced and walked past him step by step.
“When’s the next time I should come?”
“Not sure, wait for notice.”
Lin Mo didn’t even look up, impatiently waving his hand to signal her to leave quickly, meaning not to disturb him while he was immersed in the experiment.
Su Yu was quite angry, but considering that this person was still paying her salary, she kept a professional smile:
“Alright then, good luck, boss.”
After gritting her teeth and saying this, she muttered a complaint almost as quietly as a mosquito:
“What a perverted Science Freak…”
—
After being kicked out, Su Yu dragged her exhausted body and walked alone on the street.
Around her, people came and went; the road was busy with traffic.
For her, although this was the typical bustling scene of a big city and she had seen it before, everything now seemed so novel.
Ever since she transmigrated, she had been busy farming money as a talker, and hadn’t really taken a good look at this city.
So she decided to take an extra walk around the streets.
Only when her stomach started growling did she find a roadside barbecue stall and sit down.
“Warm a bowl of wine, and give me a plate of roast whole lamb.”
She hadn’t eaten much all day and had been doing high-intensity exercise.
She felt like she was starving, so she ordered a whole lamb at once.
The boss who was taking the order stared at her with a strange look, hesitated for a moment, and then said coldly:
“Minors can’t drink alcohol, I’ll switch it to cola for you, okay?”
“?”
Su Yu looked up at the boss with a surprised expression, then scanned herself from head to toe in disbelief, and said incredulously:
“Again? Where do you see me as a minor?”
This was not the first time she had encountered such a thing.
The boss didn’t speak, but the disdain in his eyes was unmistakable.
Su Yu didn’t have her ID with her, and knew it was useless no matter what she said.
“Cola it is, but make it quick.”
“Just a moment, please.”
The boss left without saying more.
Su Yu was utterly speechless in her heart.
‘I’m just a bit short now, is it worth being treated like this?’
‘No, I must ask Lin Mo another day if there’s a height-increasing potion. Otherwise, being like this all the time is really annoying.’
‘For now, I’ll just bear with it.’
She took out her phone from her pants pocket and placed it on the table, then poured herself a glass of water.
Just as she brought it to her lips, she heard a loud bang from the kitchen in the back, a “boom” sound, as if something had exploded.
Before she could think further, the kitchen door instantly split open, and a red monster with a sheep’s head crashed through the wall and charged out, its seemingly intelligent eyes full of anger:
“I am the Sheep-headed Monster, formed from the vengeful spirits of the Sheep Race, specifically here to punish you guys who harm our kind!”
“Who ordered the roast whole lamb?! I’ll roast you to a crisp!”
Su Yu, being called out, flinched.
A mouthful of water got stuck in her throat and she sprayed it all out.
Looking at the monster so close, she only felt that she had been extremely unlucky lately.
