Even if you're a corrupted magical girl, you still have to try to redeem yourself.

Fortunately, the pink demon did nothing but sit there. The students passing by also lowered their heads and quickened their pace, hurrying past the statue and disappearing into the teaching building.

Because they saw the Pink Devil, many students didn't even bother to enter the campus. Occasionally, a bold or clueless person would look up and meet the ambiguous gaze from the Pink Devil's narrowed eyes.

Even though the pink demon makes no move, her very presence is an influence on order.

The appearance of magical girls inevitably causes chaos, but amidst the chaos, a strange order is maintained, preventing the disturbance from escalating further.

During this time, some people calmly considered the appropriate course of action: "Where is the student council president? Should we go and ask him what to do?"

"The student council president seems to have taken sick leave and didn't come to school today."

"Has the teacher given us any instructions on what to do now? Should we go back to the classroom? Or should we seek refuge somewhere?"

"There's no official notification yet, so it's best to stay away. Shh—it looks like she's coming at us."

Yuuki Yuuki had to admit that, when faced with a crisis, the students of Seiyuu Academy were much calmer.

The attacks on Moonsea Middle School were far more chaotic than the current situation; in terms of abandonment and disarray, Saint Eternal Academy had a slight advantage.

Forget it, there's no point in praising one and belittling the other. When I fought with Helica during the school trip, everyone from Moonsea Middle School evacuated quickly and in an orderly manner. There's no need to compare the two.

However, these students only appeared calmer; their panic, fear, and helplessness were still evident in their expressions.

Judging from the students' performance, Yuuki Yuuki felt that their understanding of magical girls was no different from that of ordinary citizens.

It seems that although the Holy Ancient Academy and the church behind it share the same origin, the connection between the two is much smaller than Yuuki En thought, or rather, there is almost no overlap.

Of course, Yuuki Yuuki didn't come here today to investigate the relationship between St. Yuuki Academy and the church in this way; she came for another reason.

Looking at how these students behave when they come to school in the morning, they're just killing time.

After some time, the academy, seeing its daily routines disrupted, finally stopped remaining inactive.

A middle-aged woman who looked like a high-ranking school official walked out from the main building and went straight to the statue where Yuuki Yuki was sitting. She raised her head and looked directly at Yuuki Yuki.

Yuuki Yukina also lowered her gaze and looked at the middle-aged woman.

When Yuuki Enishi stared directly at her, the woman's shoulders trembled violently, as if she had shivered, but she still raised her head, a barely perceptible hint of disdain flashing in her eyes.

“I am the academic director of this college. If you need anything, we can talk.”

Oh, negotiation?

But their attitude doesn't seem very good.

Yuuki Yukina thought to herself, her lips pursed slightly as she looked the woman who had come out to try and talk to her up and down.

The headmistress's attire perfectly matched Yuuki Yuki's stereotypical image of a middle-aged woman with some status and experience. Yuuki Yuki could also tell that the other woman was afraid of her; despite her legs trembling, she was still trying to have a conversation with her.

Unfortunately, Yuuki Yuuki isn't good at dealing with this kind of person, so she doesn't really want to have a conversation with her.

Yuuki Yuen parted her lips slightly and softly refused, "No need for Er (Qi Siling)."

The head of the teaching department looked paler, and his face, etched with the marks of time and heavily covered by makeup, appeared even whiter.

But she still refused to give up, and instead of taking a single step back, she lifted her foot and took half a step forward.

The dean of students' lips, which were already pouting, seemed to pout even more.

“I hope you can listen to my advice. I believe you didn’t come here for no reason. I want to hear your reasons. I can offer you help on behalf of the entire Holy Eternal Academy.”

“I know that you must have your own difficulties at your age. I am the dean of students, and I can understand you. As long as you are willing to tell us your troubles, we will definitely do our best to help you.”

Yuuki Yui found it a little funny; was she being treated like a student who was contemplating suicide?

Actually, thinking about it, there's nothing wrong with it. Magical girls are mostly middle school students, and a few who are about to lose their powers might reach college age. From this perspective, the headmaster's statement isn't unreasonable.

Unfortunately, while this head of student affairs may have the skills appropriate for her position, she is certainly not good at communicating with students.

Out of the corner of her eye, Yuuki Yui noticed that the teachers who came out with the head of the teaching department looked even paler than the head of the teaching department, who had just been frightened, after hearing what the head of the teaching department had said.

Even in a completely unfavorable situation, putting on an air of self-righteous understanding of others, when facing a corrupted magical girl, is truly a terrible strategy.

None of the corrupted magical girls are good at communicating properly. If you encounter one with a bad temper, listening to her bureaucratic and self-important remarks will definitely backfire.

Perhaps it was because he was just sitting on the statue and did nothing else that he gave her the illusion that he was easy to talk to?

Yuuki Yukino's thoughts seemed to have led the other party to misunderstand something, which emboldened the head of the teaching department.

"You're still a child, it's normal to make mistakes. If you realize your mistakes and correct them, we can understand you, right?"

Upon hearing this, the teachers behind him secretly rubbed their foreheads.

In conclusion, his courage is commendable, but his emotional intelligence is lacking.

Yuuki Yui doesn't need to correct the other person's mistakes, nor is she a hot-tempered, corrupted magical girl, but as a little villain, a small reminder is certainly acceptable.

Sharp tentacles burst forth from the ground—though they didn't pierce the soil, but rather the floor tiles of the Holy Age Academy.

The tentacle pierced straight into the lens of the glasses hanging on the dean's nose, and ice-crack-like fissures spread out from that point.

The world seemed to fall silent at that moment, with only the clattering sound of shattered glass breaking off its frame and falling to the ground.

The dean's pupils trembled violently as the tip of the blackish-purple tentacle made of lines, which had appeared without warning, was less than a centimeter away from her eyeball.

At that distance, the dean's eyelids felt like they were filled with lead, making it impossible for him to even blink.

The next second, the tentacle exploded in front of her eyes. There was no impact or sound; it was like a building block scattering, turning into short lines.

The dean of students mechanically lowered his stiff neck, and through his blurred vision due to the missing lens, he could barely see the transparent glass reflecting light on the ground.

Of course, there's also that hole, neither too big nor too small, that definitely exists, proving that a tentacle had just pierced through.

Behind the dean of students, many people cast unfriendly glances, almost none of them directed at Yuuki Yukino; their eyes were undoubtedly on the dean of students who had spoken out of turn.

Yuuki En was unaware of the details, but the teachers knew that it was the head of the teaching department who volunteered, saying something like, "All I need is a few words from me to discipline her with courtesy." That's why they allowed her to come out and negotiate.

The head of the teaching department now realized that the other party was warning him that if he continued to speak recklessly, the tentacle would pierce more than just the lens.

Although she didn't know that Yuuki Yukino could never actually stab him.

This little lesson is just a reminder not to speak recklessly and arrogantly. If it happens again, and the other person has a bad temper, it could end up with bloodshed.

"What makes you think you understand me?" Yuuki Yukina narrowed her eyes and gently shook the black folding fan in her hand.

The head of the teaching department shivered and opened his mouth to say something, but a teacher rushed over and covered his mouth, dragging him aside.

However, these things have nothing to do with Yuuki Yuuki.

"And what makes you think you can represent Saint Eternal Academy?"

This sentence can be interpreted differently by different people.

But most people understood the same meaning, which was what Yuuki Eri was intentionally trying to convey.

Representing the Holy Age Academy to negotiate with me? You are not worthy.

“That’s right, one head of the academic affairs department cannot represent the entire St. Eternal Academy.”

A not-so-loud voice reached everyone's ears.

This voice is completely unfamiliar to most people, but Yuuki Yukino is very familiar with it.

The giant, colorful hand that suddenly emerged from the chest of the statue beneath Yuuki Enishi arrived much faster than the sound.

The hand was large enough to hold the pink-haired devil sitting on it completely in its palm.

It was fast enough that it lifted the pink demon lady sitting on the statue into its palm in an instant, and continued to rise into the sky.

The others also saw that the giant hand that had suddenly appeared and lifted up the pink-haired girl clenched tightly. The five heterochromatic fingers, pressed together, seemed to want to squeeze the pink-haired girl into a ball, tightening their grip and completely obscuring the pink-haired girl's figure.

In the instant the fingers closed, someone also caught a glimpse of the pink-haired girl's folding fan snapping shut.

Immediately afterwards, the giant hand that had risen into the air inexplicably swelled up, like an overinflated balloon, instantly expanding into a huge sphere with a diameter of more than ten meters, resembling a sports meet with colorful flags hanging around it.

Since it's a balloon, it must have a limit to its expansion, and that colorful balloon is no exception.

The next second, as it rapidly swelled to an exaggerated size, colorful raindrops splashed out and fell.

In the very center of the rain, a swollen and ugly spherical monster was writhing its tentacles, bathing in the colorful rain. It raised the tentacle mass that could barely be considered its head and let out a heart-wrenching wail.

But is there really a strange shape in the sky?

Everyone in the Ball Witches felt as if they were seeing things for a moment; there was no huge, swollen mass of tentacles blotting out the sky at all.

Under the colorful rain, the pink-haired demon with her open folding fan seemed even more captivating with the curve of her alluring eyes peeking out from above the fan.

Before the raindrops fell on the girl, on the stone bricks, on the ground, and on the other people who looked up, they suddenly disappeared.

"But what about me?"

Now everyone can see who the owner of that suddenly appearing voice is.

A tall, slender girl wearing a hooded sweatshirt made of patchwork colors slowly stepped into the inner part of the campus from the direction of the school gate.

Upon hearing the woman's voice and seeing the figure that had appeared, the pink-haired demon lady seemed to smile even more happily.

"May I speak with you on behalf of Saint Eternal Academy?"

Chapter Ninety-Seven: Come to the office and have a glass of lychee juice!

In the dean's office at St. Yuu Academy, Genken Mashiro picked up the teapot, poured a full cup into his own teacup, and then waved it at Yuuki Yuuki: "My accomplice, would you like a drink?"

“No need.” Yuuki Yuen, who was sitting opposite the chairman’s desk, shook her head, glanced at the almost transparent, sweet-smelling liquid in her teacup, and casually asked, “What is that?”

"Super delicious Rainbow Leaf Autumn Lychee Flavored Zhifu Concentrated Puree." Genken Mashiro replied earnestly.

"What is that?" Yuuki Yuen's lips twitched.

"Super delicious lychee-flavored concentrated beverage from the autumn harvest of Nijiha City." Genki Mashiro opened the drawer of his desk and placed the remaining half-pack of concentrated beverage, which is readily available in specialty shops in Nijiha City, on his desk.

Yuuki Yuuki has seen this thing before, but she has never had the desire to buy it.

I don't know how expensive the black tea that Komamori drinks in the student council room is, but the price of brewing it once is definitely enough to buy many bags of that lychee drink that Gyoken Mashiro is drinking, which is supposed to be a specialty of Nijiha City.

For some reason, seeing Genki Mashiro still drinking this stuff even after becoming the headmaster, Yuuki Yuuki inexplicably felt a strange sense of closeness to this utterly wicked guy.

"Give me a drink." After hesitating for a moment, Yuuki Yukino finally gave in.

Genjiro pulled out a stack of paper cups from under the table, took one from the middle and placed it in front of Yuuki Yuuki. Then, he picked up the expensive-looking teapot used to brew concentrated drinks and poured most of the cup into the paper cup.

"You actually came to me this way; you're still so unpredictable."

“I don’t have your contact information. If I don’t do this, am I supposed to openly register at the gate and then wait for you to have time to receive me, Dean?” Yuuki Yuen raised an eyebrow, picked up the paper cup, and took a sip.

The farce that morning ended unexpectedly quickly. From the perspective of the onlookers, it was simply a conflict between an evil magical girl who had appeared in Moonsea City a year ago and a pink demon who had suddenly emerged this year.

The two faced off for a moment, then said something about going somewhere else, and then flew away together.
