Chapter 223: The Three Sisters Jin, Yin, and Hong in Training

“What resonance? What Unity of Heaven and Man? What have you two been hiding from me?”

Jin Luan realized that the two of them had a little secret.

Huan Hong smiled awkwardly and explained the feeling of the Magical Girl’s power from the beginning.

While fighting the Martial Monk, she felt like her various attributes had improved, giving her the sensation of using her Magical Girl powers.

That feeling was hard to put into words—it was quite mysterious.

She hadn’t thought much about it until Yin Lin suddenly mentioned “Resonance.”

Even Jin Luan turned her gaze toward Yin Lin, hoping for a detailed explanation of what resonance was.

“How should I put it… I don’t know the conditions for resonance yet. As for the effects, you might get twice the result with half the effort during your training. Your original body will be strengthened, and after your Transformation into a Magical Girl, you’ll gain new abilities or receive reinforcements.”

Yin Lin’s explanation of resonance was vague, leaving them quite confused.

“So basically, I got stronger after being beaten up several times?”

Huan Hong summarized.

“Right. Did you gain any new abilities?”

Yin Lin asked expectantly.

Huan Hong put down her phone and walked around the hospital room for a bit.

She was still injured, and suddenly remembering this, she said, “I feel like my recovery speed has improved. Before, these bruises would take much longer to fade, but today the pain isn’t as bad.”

Yin Lin asked, “Anything else?”

‘If resonance only provides this much of a boost, then it’s pretty useless,’ Yin Lin thought.

Huan Hong hadn’t thought much about it, so she hadn’t looked into any changes.

Hearing Yin Lin use the word “Resonance,” she began to observe her body more closely.

She hopped around the room, threw a few punches, and even brandished her staff for a few strikes.

Yin Lin and Jin Luan watched her tensely, wanting to know what resonance actually was.

They waited for her to say something.

After thinking for a long time, Huan Hong replied, “I don’t feel anything.”

Yin Lin also confirmed one thing: this resonance was a long-term buff, not an explosive one like the Saiyan or Sage Fox Mode.

“Is there really resonance? I don’t feel it at all,” Huan Hong said skeptically.

“It’ll probably show up in a few days,” Yin Lin replied without much doubt.

The Contract Goddess had no reason to make up a term.

Since she said there was resonance, then Huan Hong must have truly achieved it.

“Lin, how do you know about resonance?”

Jin Luan wasn’t suspicious, just curious.

Yin Lin had prepared her answer: “Diamond told me.”

“Diamond?”

Jin Luan was skeptical.

“He didn’t tell us. Why did he tell you?”

“It just shows how high my status is in Diamond’s heart. How can you two compare to me?”

Yin Lin easily brushed it off with a casual remark.

“Why didn’t Li say anything yesterday? Why only today?”

Huan Hong also asked.

“I didn’t think of it yesterday,” Yin Lin replied fluently.

Jin Luan asked for more details about resonance, and Yin Lin didn’t hide much, sharing most of what she knew.

Jin Luan cared a lot about the conditions for resonance, but unfortunately, Yin Lin didn’t know, and the Contract Goddess refused to explain.

She desperately wanted to become stronger; her ambition was second only to Huan Hong’s.

Why was she less ambitious than Huan Hong?

Because she had to spend time on her romantic pursuit of the man, so she couldn’t dedicate all her time to improving her strength.

She asked Huan Hong if she had done anything special before the resonance happened.

Huan Hong thought back hard.

During those two days, she had simply been beaten.

First, she was beaten by Jin Luan several times, then by the Martial Monk, and finally, she had Yin Lin hit her.

Other than that, she hadn’t done anything special, right?

At this point, both Yin Lin and Jin Luan had their own theories.

To reach the conditions for resonance, one at least had to work as hard as Huan Hong had over the past few days, throwing themselves into it wholeheartedly to become stronger.

It was easy to say, but quite difficult to do.

Yin Lin could hardly do it; she didn’t have a desperate desire to get stronger.

Currently, she was already at the ceiling of combat power and didn’t lack offensive strength for the time being.

Moreover, she had learned those two basic spells, which could be transformed into various other types of magic.

She didn’t have much combat power anxiety.

After thinking for a while, Jin Luan gave up on the resonance issue for now and changed the subject.

“Why were you unconscious in the cemetery last night?”

Yin Lin said, “I might have been too exhausted lately. I planned to practice flying last night, but I felt very sleepy when I passed the cemetery, so I went down to sleep. The next thing I knew, I was here.”

The logic wasn’t very sound, but the tone was what mattered, as it tested her acting skills.

Yin Lin’s acting was barely passing—not great, but not terrible either.

Jin Luan still frowned, not entirely convinced.

“Why did you have to go out for flying practice in the middle of the night? Is daytime not okay? You didn’t do anything all day, did you?”

Yin Lin had to continue lying.

“I was afraid of running into Greenfield during the day. I didn’t think she would show up in the early hours of the morning.”

That was reasonable enough.

Jin Luan was temporarily speechless.

She scolded Yin Lin a bit more, telling her to rest and recover for a while.

She filled in the blanks herself, assuming Yin Lin’s collapse in the cemetery was a lingering effect from her battle with the Elite High-level Aberrant at the Forest Farm a few days ago.

That Demonic Creature had indeed broken through her Shield and injured her.

Her skin hadn’t even healed yet, showing she had clearly been hurt in that fight.

Therefore, fainting at the cemetery wasn’t completely impossible.

Next, Jin Luan and Huan Hong left.

Their Mana was low, and they needed to go replenish it.

Tranquility returned to the hospital room.

Suddenly remembering something, Yin Lin glanced at the window, but Diamond was no longer there.

She sighed.

The place was familiar, but her old friend was gone.

***

On the other side, Huan Hong and Jin Luan separated after leaving.

Jin Luan went to handle the checkout at Yinmiao Mountain Villa, while Huan Hong found another place to start training on her own.

She was very concerned about the resonance.

After returning to her base form, she ate while running to save time.

Something strange happened: she felt like her Mana recovery speed had slightly increased.

‘Does my base form eating now grant even more Mana recovery speed?’

Seeing this, she believed Yin Lin’s words even more.

This was resonance.

She trained from morning until night.

Once her Mana was full, she transformed into a Magical Girl again and began training frantically in the open space.

Only after she was dripping with sweat did she tentatively start her Burst Aura Reinforcement.

This time, she had some different ideas.

When using the Energy Burst, she felt more at ease, as if she had mastered this magic on a new level.

She tried a different way to use the burst, strengthening only certain parts of her body.

To her surprise, it actually worked.

There was no problem strengthening only her hands and feet.
