Curse Return: Demon Void Girl Doesn't Want to Be a Weakling

The deer sighed, then looked up and asked Mashiro, "Why did you add this rule?"

Mashiro didn't answer the question, but instead asked, "How many points do you have, Little Deer?"

"Forty or fifty, what's wrong?"

The deer looked at Mashiro strangely. What did this have to do with the rule?

"If there is a mage with the same score as you, but I only get five points for killing him, it's such a waste."

Mashiro tapped her finger lightly in the air and said, "On one hand, it's about efficiently collecting points; on the other hand..."

"on the other hand?"

The little deer repeated it curiously.

Mashiro nodded, looking with satisfaction at the deer who had cooperated so well and satisfied her desire to explain.

"On the other hand, it allows people inside the barrier to satisfy the changes in points without killing each other, and to avoid being killed by the rules."

After listening to Mashiro's explanation, the deer fell silent.

She walked behind Mashiro, looking at the short kid.

Xiao Lu hesitated for a moment, then said softly, "You're so strong, why would you bother with ordinary people?"

With great power comes great responsibility.

Mashiro didn't turn around; her single ponytail swayed slightly with each step. "When poor, one should cultivate one's own virtue; when successful, one should help others. Protecting ordinary people is what a sorcerer should do."

After saying that, she scratched her head and her tone became more relaxed: "But I was just saying it to sound nice, and doing things that were convenient for me."

The little deer stared at Mashiro's profile for a long while before softly saying, "I see."

Mashiro put the golden beetle back and walked step by step toward the edge of the barrier.

What is your relationship with Su Nuo?

The little deer suddenly spoke, and the iron rod gently swayed on her shoulder.

"Su Nuo?"

Mashiro raised an eyebrow and glanced at Xiaolu, "It's kind of a relationship where they both want to kill each other."

Little Deer blinked: "Su Nuo is sealed inside your brother's body. Do you want to unseal him?"

Yes, but not now.

Mashiro's voice was calm, "The time will come when we've done what needs to be done."

The deer didn't ask any more questions and jogged a couple of steps to catch up with Mashiro.

The two reached the edge of the barrier, and Mashiro drew Murasame, cutting open the barrier to create an exit large enough for the two of them to get out.

The moment they stepped out, the scorched earth, ruins, and ashes of corpses behind them were all left behind inside the barrier.

Outside is a normal street, but it's blocked off by windows.

Mashiro scanned the area roughly but found no loopholes.

It seems that the ordinary person who suddenly appeared might just be an unlucky guy.

There's nothing we can do about it.

Mashiro sighed, took out her phone, and dialed Itadori's number.

But all I got was a busy signal.

Mashiro frowned, hung up, and redialed.

After a short wait, the call was finally answered.

"Mashiro-nee?"

Haddock's voice was somewhat hurried, with unsteady breathing.

The background was chaotic, with something running and the sound of metal clashing.

What's going on your end?

Mashiro's voice deepened, and Kojima noticed her shoulders tense slightly.

"Someone wants to kill Fushiguro Megumi and then kidnap Maki-senpai and Mai."

Haddō's tone didn't sound flustered, and he summarized the situation in one sentence.

Do you know how many people there are?

"There are probably more than ten of them. I'm not sure about their techniques. One of them is very fast, but his strength isn't that great."

Itachi replied calmly, while in the background, Fukuro shouted something, but it was hard to hear clearly over the phone.

“We were separated. I was with Maki-senpai and Mai, Fushiguro was on another street, and everyone else was separated as well.”

"Regarding the exact location, is the situation still under control?"

"Yes, but it shouldn't take too long. I've sent you the address."

Itachi paused for a moment, and then a loud thud came from the other end of the phone as he slammed his fist into something.

“If I wasn’t afraid they would get arrested, I would have gone back to doing it long ago.”

"Hold on for ten minutes."

Mashiro hung up the phone and put it back in her pocket; the situation wasn't too critical yet.

Given their team's strength, it's not to say they definitely can't win.

"Let's go, little deer."

She started walking and hurried towards the address. "Didn't you want to find Su Nuo? I'll take you there."

"Your brother, right? What's the situation now?"

Little Deer immediately followed, her lightning spell accelerating her pace.

Mashiro and the deer were running at top speed up the building.

“Fukuguro is the head of the Zenin family according to the will. Killing him can invalidate the will. Maki and Mai are direct descendants. Capturing them can control the struggle for the head of the family.”

The voice carried a magical power, allowing the deer to hear it.

Xiaolu didn't quite understand these family feuds, but she caught on to something.

"They're all enemies anyway?"

"Yes, leave no one alive."

Mashiro's voice was icy, "You keep challenging my bottom line, I thought it was the same as before."

The little deer watched her retreating figure, her azure eyes reflecting the flowing white hair.

All she had seen before was this person's maniacal smile and overwhelming strength during battles; this was the first time she had heard her speak in such a tone.

"Your brother is very strong, he can seal Su Nuo."

Xiao Lu suddenly said something cryptic and turned her face away.

"what?"

Mashiro didn't stop walking, and asked back with a hint of doubt.

"It's...it's..."

The little deer's voice trailed off, a slight blush creeping onto her face, "Is it still possible to get some clothes? I'm about to fall down..."

Chapter 172 Magical Girl Lu Ziyun

Ugh, why did she say that?! And with that expression too!

The little deer kept cursing herself in her heart.

Does your mindset change after you become a little girl?

How could you say such a thing!

But the clothes are definitely going to fall off...

"Ah?"

Mashiro's voice came through, "Sorry, I forgot, oh, there's a clothing store downstairs."

The little deer felt a jolt of fear; could it be...?

"Ah, it looks like she's wearing women's clothing~"

She knew it!

This person will absolutely not let this opportunity slip by!

This devil only thinks about how to toy with her!

The little deer gritted its teeth and looked down at the clothes it was wearing that were still dripping wet.

The cuffs slipped down to the back of his hands, and the hems of his trousers dragged two wet streaks on the ground.

She's definitely not fit for fighting in that state, but dressing her in women's clothing is just too much...

Mashiro had already jumped down; the sound of shattering glass came from beneath her feet.

"Damn it, whatever you want!"

The little deer understood that it had no choice but to accept its fate.

When the deer landed at the entrance of the clothing store, Mashiro was already rummaging through the clothes racks.

She was carrying a pink sweatshirt in one hand and a shirt with a bow in the other, muttering to herself.

"This one won't do, it's too plain. This one won't do either, it's too old-fashioned. Hmm, I could try this one, but it's not cute enough..."

The little deer stood at the door, staring in disbelief as Mashiro continued to rummage through the items.

Even though she already found the clothes in her hands unacceptable, she still said they weren't cute enough!

"Ah, found it!"

Mashiro suddenly stopped, turned around with a set of clothes in her hand, and her smile was much wider than before!
