I'll kill you after I finish this game!

However, hearing that Raiji always remembered that he was the first child she met, Aihara Enju was still very happy inside.

"Heh, you really are liked by these annoying brats. You haven't noticed the feelings that a few of them have for you, have you?"

Liselotte wore an amused smile as she watched Rezel treat the group of children with tenderness. She thought that even though Rezel had killed some children, he would bring salvation to them. Her feelings towards this man, who was initially her enemy, were somewhat complicated.

Since becoming a witch, Liselotte has never felt admiration for anyone other than her deceased teacher, Michel.

But now that she has learned just a small part of what this man has done, she has to admit that she admires him for what he has done.

Killing is for the sake of protecting life; cutting off karma is not killing people. The destruction of the other party may devour malice, but it also leaves behind the redemption of compassion.

"Yeah, weren't you quite popular with kids? Or rather, you used to be~"

In response to Lizzerot's amused teasing, Rezer stood up, raised an eyebrow, and pointed to Lizzet, who was treating children in the distance.

At least that generation of Lizzielotte, the former Lysette, truly cared for children and was welcomed and supported by them.

"Tch! She's just a cowardly and incompetent 'me'. When are you going to merge us back together? Just seeing her annoys me!"

Liselotte crossed her arms, looking disdainful and annoyed. She hated anything related to Liselotte, as seeing her always reminded her of unpleasant things.

It would be better to keep this person sealed deep within her consciousness and not let her out, but now that Liselotte has been separated into two people, there is nothing she can do.

"I quite like Lizzie. Even though she has been maliciously damaged, her imperfect beauty is very alluring. Her kindness and purity are not hypocritical."

Looking at Lizzie, who was working diligently in the distance, Rezer's handsome face showed undisguised admiration and affection.

It wasn't just her beautiful appearance that attracted her, but rather the pure and kind beauty that was just like Elsa's!

This is a beautiful existence that is recognized as needing to be protected, within the prayers and yearnings of Razer's heart's crystallization!

"You actually like a 'me' covered in filth? You must be out of your mind!"

Liselotte was furious and embarrassed upon hearing this. Her dark blue vertical pupils blazed with anger, and her fair hands clenched into fists. Her face was filled with a mocking and malicious smile as she ridiculed Reiji.

She could tell that what Lei Zhe liked wasn't her past appearance, but rather the pure kindness that she found repulsive—that useless pure kindness!

What's so great about that useless kindness?! It only gets in the way and makes you a target for others to exploit!

But what the witch herself didn't realize was that, beneath her demonic and wicked expression, and because of Razer's unvarnished words, a fleeting joy had just passed through her heart, one that she herself hadn't even noticed.

That joy of being acknowledged and recognized was not an acceptance based on her ugly past...

Rezel calmly and composedly faced the witch's mockery and ridicule. His shining golden eyes reflected Liselotte's bewitching figure, and he uttered words that left her speechless:

"In that not-so-distant future, I will destroy all the filth on you. I don't care if you are covered in disgusting filth; I value your essence."

"Even if the Ugly Duckling is pitch black and ugly on the outside, it is still a beautiful and white swan at its core. This most basic essence will not change."

If Liselotte were a hopeless case, Rezer wouldn't offer her any help, even if he were interested.

But it was precisely because this witch possessed abilities that caught Rezer's attention, as well as a purity hidden deep within her soul, that he made a deal with her.

Witches represent the darkest and most evil aspects of humanity, and in Reiji's view, Lizzet, the inverted form of a witch, possesses angelic qualities that are not weaker than her.

In the final moments before Lizzie was about to fall into hell, she made sure Reiji could clearly hear her prayer. Reiji felt her piety and it also proved Lizzie's purity.

Liselotte felt that she would live better if she turned black, and would not be treated maliciously or plundered. Naturally, she did not want to return to her original weak and kind self. This was the root of her resistance to Liselotte.

When she lived as a witch, she was able to find peace of mind through her ruthless nature and powerful strength, and this sense of security also fascinated her.

"Commander, the ceremony is nearing its end. Please complete the final step."

Suddenly, Jiang Feng emerged from the spatial vortex and walked over to Lei Zhe. He glanced at Liselotte and then solemnly reported his work to Lei Zhe.

"...Is that so? I understand. Let the ship girls stationed in the Osaka area return to base."

Upon hearing this, Lei Zhe let out a long sigh, and then issued an order to all the ship girls in the Osaka area to return to port via the mental network.

Then he looked at Xiaoyou, whose work of tirelessly using the power of words to transfer the cursed children all over the world had ended. He teleported to her side and gently placed his hand on the girl's petite shoulder.

"...Zhe, is it time to begin?"

After Xiaoyou finished the great transfer, a trace of fatigue and helplessness flashed in her crystal-clear sapphire eyes, and she said in a somewhat melancholy tone.

She used her power of words, which had no side effects, so her body wasn't very tired. What was truly tiring was her heart, feeling exhausted and helpless in the face of the world's irredeemable decay.

She knew that Razor's Great Purification Ritual was complete, and that he would then use harsh methods to correct the world's errors.

The kind-hearted girl had seen many pure and good people around the world whose hearts had not yet been corrupted, and these people should not face such a purge...

With tenderness in his eyes, Lei Zhe placed his hand on Xiao You's fair and delicate cheek, gently stroking her soft, smooth face with his thumb, and said in a gentle voice:

"So you don't want me to do that? If you say that now, I'll stop the Great Purification ritual and spend more time thinking of a solution."

I will do whatever you say, and I will not let it happen if you don't want to see it.

Feeling her lover's warm hand on her cheek, soothing her weary heart, Xiaoyou could clearly read the meaning in Lei Zhe's gentle eyes.

A relaxed and contented smile appeared on the girl's lips, and her gaze as she looked up at Lei Zhe conveyed: Don't underestimate me.

She knew that if she spoke up, the man would stop what he was doing, but she couldn't do it, and she couldn't bring herself to speak!

She can't act recklessly just because of her position in Lei Zhe's heart; doing so would make her despise herself.

Although she couldn't bear the extremes of the Great Purification, she knew it was the most suitable way to save the world.

"Go for it, Zhe, I support you!"

With gentle eyes, Xiao You conveyed her most resolute words to Lei Zhe in her soft voice.

"it is good."

Lei Zhe, whose eyes also held a gentle smile, was extremely happy to hear Xiao You's firm words, just like a child who had received recognition.

P.S.: 7500-word update! Please vote and recommend! Don't run away! There's another 8000-word update coming soon; I'll add more if I get enough votes.

Chapter Ninety-Five: Let's return to our seats in our original form.

"Everything that needs to be prepared is ready, so it's time to give this world a thorough cleaning—"

Leizhe stood atop the clouds in the sky, a pleasant smile playing on his lips as he looked down at the city below, with Xiaoyou standing beside him, also looking down.

The witch Liselotte and her kind-hearted friend Lisette stood quietly behind the two of them, showing utmost respect.

"Yu, are you ready?"

Lei Zhe glanced at Xiao You beside him, whose eyes held a hint of reluctance, sighed inwardly, and asked softly.

"Ah."

Xiaoyou nodded at Lei Zhe, indicating that she was ready.

She knew what Lei Zhe was going to do next, and being kind-hearted, she also understood that it was a very cruel thing.

He gently raised his hand and touched the girl's head, then slowly closed his eyes.

His ritual slowly ascended, beginning to connect with his ship girls in outer space.

The next moment, the night sky suddenly shattered, and a huge beam of light that seemed to split the heavens and the earth flashed across the sky.

Next, we need to open the path of the runes and activate the gate to the divine realm...

Razer looked down from outer space through the 'views' of the ship girls and saw the scenes around the world with perfect clarity.

First, a burst of golden light appeared from outer space orbit, materializing on the pure white wings behind the ship girl Illustrious, and then resonated with her other sisters and companions.

"Are you ready? Begin opening the door." Within the vast mental network that surrounds the entire Earth, Rezer calmly and indifferently gave the order.

First, his expression became incredibly calm and radiant with a holy glow, and he responded mechanically:

"YES, Maeter—"

"YES, Maeter—" Royal Navy ship girl wins.

“YES, Maeter—” Richelieu, the Free Iris.

“YES, Maeter—” Joan of Arc, the Free Iris.

“YES, Maeter—” Louis IX, the Liberty Iris.

"..."

Following their master's instructions, the ship girls responded in an orderly and simultaneous manner. Then, Illustrious, the leader, began to close her eyes and chant with a sacred and solemn expression:

“Raphaeljeispredmene. (Raphael is before me) ————”

“Gabrieljeizamene. (Gabriel is behind me) ————” Victory.

“Michaelmijenadesnojruki. (Michael is on my right hand) —” Joan of Arc.

“Urierjenalevojstrani. (Urier is on my left) — Richelieu.”

The sacred and solemn incantation, as a divine message, was invoked from the heavens above.

“PratiBozjuvoljuistavisvetipecatGospodaraovde. (In accordance with God's will, here I place the Lord's seal.)”

As the core of the group, Lei Zhe stood at the very center of these four pillars in the ocean of consciousness, and calmly declared.

"pound--!!!!"

At the same time, endless torrents of primordial holy light erupted from the four pillars of the sacred runes in space, emanating from the wings behind the ship girls who possessed the divine power of Razer.

Twenty-four sacred wings began to unleash a terrifying torrent, consciously linking to the other solemnly praying ship girls, and endless light began to appear.

Then, incredibly conspicuous ripples of light spread out from the void of the heavens.

Then, in an instant, the world changed.

The sky above the Earth suddenly shattered, and a tremendous light flashed across the sky as if the heavens and the earth were created. Then, as if a vast and indifferent deity had pressed the switch on the sun, it was as natural as a human turning on the light in their own room.

Outside the atmosphere, a dazzling golden light suddenly appeared, piercing the Earth's magnetic field and instantly turning the entire planet into daylight.

From top to bottom, from far to near, inside and out, from the boundless sky to the vast earth, and even to the very edge of one's vision.

Everything transformed into a dazzling golden radiance.

Xiao You, standing beside Rei Zhe, also tensed up. A pair of serpent scepters appeared in her crystal-clear sapphire blue eyes, and a vast, terrifying, and magnificent magical power, as powerful as a galaxy, instantly materialized in Liselotte's shocked gaze, and then poured directly into Rei Zhe's body.

"Boom--!"

A towering golden pillar of light erupted from Razer's body, his divine energy began to circulate within him, and finally roared and surged towards the whole world.

Exuding an aura of overwhelming power, He slowly opened His dazzling golden eyes. The unchanging majesty and magnificent divine might of His eyes began to spread throughout the world.

The monotonous, solemn, and incomparably heavy golden flames seemed capable of burning everything, with endless golden light surging and instantly engulfing the entire Earth's space like a raging torrent.
