I Came Here to Lie Flat, What Are You All Doing?!

"Excuse me, sir. In this world overrun by vicious beasts, what's your dream as a young person brimming with energy and vitality?"

"Let me think... Probably to eat and drink my fill, wait for nightfall, lie flat and wait to die, and just coast through life."

After working tirelessly, the young man Fang Yaoming finally landed the job he had always dreamed of: an archivist at the National Magic Administration Bureau. His wonderful life of lying flat was just about to begin.

But on his very first day, an unseen, merciless hand shattered his fantasy.

"What? I've been assigned to the support division that helps magical girls fight vicious beasts?!"

"What? I have to go into the field on my first day?!"

"What? Something goes wrong on my first mission, and a magical girl's life is in danger?!"

Fang Yaoming, a former magical girl from a kingdom that had been struck off the list and placed under surveillance, now a rookie in the Magical Girl Support Division of the Xuyun City Magic Administration Bureau, ultimately couldn't stand by and do nothing.

From then on, all kinds of "noise" began filling Fang Yaoming's ears.

"Senior, thank you for stepping in to help!"

"Senior, please train me some more!"

"Senior, thank you for talking me through it. I won't feel lost anymore!"

"Senior, I'm sorry. Please forgive me for being so headstrong..."

"Senior, it looks like a lot of people are looking for you outside. They seem to be old friends of yours..."

Many years later, facing the shifting silhouettes, Fang Yaoming would always think back to that distant afternoon when she was supposed to lie flat, but stepped in to save a magical girl she had never met.

It seemed the price of refusing to stand by and do nothing was a little high.
