Arc salt

Lin Yun, 36 years old, a widower, a mid-level manager in a private enterprise, is a single father, who has recently felt that he is encountering a mid-life crisis.
Professionally, he faced adversity; domestically, he was in a cold war with his 14-year-old daughter; physically, he suffered from periarthritis and spoke daily of his agony.
In the past few days, he had also uncovered a secret — his daughter was being a "Magic" girl.
With the body of a young maiden, she battled extraordinary monsters and protected the city from attacks — this is the common perception of a "Magic" girl.
But he was very aware that being a "Magic" girl came with life-threatening dangers.
Should he stop her, or respect his daughter’s choice and find other ways to protect her?
Gazing at the Heart Flower in his wardrobe, now covered in dust, Lin Yun, the former "Magic" girl who retired 19 years ago, was facing the third major decision of his life.

Transform into a magical girl after getting off work

Under normal circumstances, Lin Yun's daily routine was very regular.


He would wake up at 6:30 in the morning and rest at 11:30 at night, repeating this cycle to ensure he had enough mental energy to handle his work.


His biological clock was equally precise, and he would inevitably open his eyes promptly at around six o'clock unless he was overly fatigued.


However, there's always an exception to the rule. The night before, after finishing work, he had taught a lesson to two magical girls; then he rushed to the sewer and fought his way through an entire nest of pupa-stage Remnant Beasts; and finally, had a lengthy phone call with Hong Siyu to verify the situation. By the time the back of his head touched the pillow, it was already five in the morning.


When Lin Yun opened his eyes from his drowsiness, it was already 7:05.
