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

Besides, if he successfully defeats those enemies, wouldn't the girl be safe?

Putting everything else aside, if she could catch those corrupted magical girls by the tail, she could better fulfill her duties.

“You can tell me.” Helica resisted the urge to urge the girl to speak quickly, and tried to speak softly: “If you tell your sister, your sister can defeat the bad guys.”

The girl clenched her fist and waved it in the air:

"There's one with pink hair and another with white hair, wearing the same clothes as the girl lying on the ground. They're the two bad people! They bullied your friend like this!"

Chapter 129 Your Hand Pierced Through My Entire Chest

The issue of Miyashita Mia's corruption, which subsequently led to Tsukimi Rie's corruption, seems to have been temporarily resolved, but some other issues remain unresolved.

For example, there's Yumehara Sumireko, who's currently hiding somewhere but has already made a move against Mizuno Yu's NPC.

For example, they still don't know why Miyashita Mia has fallen into darkness.

"Miyashita-senpai, isn't there anything bothering you?"

Yuuki Yuuki deliberately called out Miyashita Mia, with whom she had exchanged contact information, late at night, and her first words went straight to the point.

"I'm very content with my life now. If I have any regrets, it's that after Megumi completely loses her magical girl memories, she'll forget some of our past."

It's certainly possible. Because Miyashita Mia wanted to continue living with Megumi in the realm of magical girls, she fell into darkness due to this twisted desire...

Is it really possible? Miyashita Mia attacked ordinary people immediately after her fall from grace, and then turned around and attacked Megumi. To say that she fell from grace for this reason would completely contradict Miyashita Mia's wishes when she fell from grace.

Miya Miyashita glanced at Yuuki Yuuki's pensive expression. Her eyes seemed to see into Yuuki Yuuki's heart, yet they didn't give off the inexplicable chill that comes with the corruption she had experienced.

"Are you curious about the reason why I fell into darkness?" Miyashita Miya lifted her chin, pursed her lips slightly, and looked at Yuuki Yuuki with great interest.

Miyashita Mia was indeed skeptical of the pink-haired girl's initial claims about her being a time traveler.

However, the beads of sweat still on the other person's forehead and their anxious tone made Miyashita feel that the other person didn't seem like they wanted to be her enemy.

Even though a voice inside her tells her that she can't trust the corrupted magical girl and should get rid of her as soon as possible, Miyashita Mia has her own judgment.

At least so far, much of the information this pink-haired girl has shared is likely known only to Miya, especially since it includes details of her past with Megumi. There's no reason for Miya not to believe that the other party has at least come prepared.

Moreover, the pink-haired girl readily admitted it.

"Yes, I don't remember any reason why Miyashita-senpai fell into darkness, which is why I'm asking Miyashita-senpai to help me recall it."

Yuuki Yukino slowly covered her eyes with her eyelids, also concealing her slightly tired gaze.

When Miyashita opened her eyes again, she felt that the pink-haired girl in front of her had undergone a complete transformation in temperament.

"Moreover, we don't have much time left. A hidden enemy has already begun to make his move, so please forgive me for disturbing you at this time, Miyashita-senpai."

Despite speaking the most polite words, Miyashita Miya felt an overwhelming pressure emanating from the other person that she could not refuse.

Of course, the pressure from the other party wasn't directed at her; at least Miyashita Miya couldn't sense any malice from them.

"Who is this hidden enemy you're talking about?" Miya Miyashita had to ask this question first.

“A corrupted magical girl attacked another magical girl just before I called Miyashita-senpai out. I’m not sure if she will also harm you, senpai.”

Yuuki Yuun answered.

Yuuki Yukino's purpose wasn't so simple. She was currently in Helica's dream, and even if Miya Miyashita was sitting opposite her, she might suddenly scream and fall into darkness at any moment.

Oh right, she probably wouldn't even scream. Dreams are just that bizarre and fantastical, so Yuuki Yukino had to personally check on Miyashita Mia's condition again.

Of course, finding out the reason for Miyashita Mia's corruption is also very important. Although she doesn't know if the reason for Miyashita Mia's corruption in the dream is exactly the same as that in reality, she can only try her best now.

“I could indeed sense a magical power, but it was too far away from me, and it disappeared when I was about to set off.” Miya Miyashita nodded. As a fellow magical girl, she could also sense Sumireko Yumehara’s magical power.

"It would be great if you could sense it, senior. That enemy's target is all the magical girls, so I think you are also in danger."

Yuuki Yukino didn't tell Miyashita Mia everything about herself. Could she really say something like, "This place is some short, blond girl's nightmare. She'll break down if something happens to someone here,"?

Besides, even if she did tell, Miyashita Mia might not believe her.

Even if the other party believes it, it's not a good thing.

Tell me, telling an NPC in a dream that you are actually just an NPC is no less dangerous than making Helica wake up.

Knowing he's an NPC, he might act recklessly; knowing the truth of the world, he might fall into darkness. These are all possibilities, and the problems that arise will have to be solved one by one by Yuuki Eri.

“You mean…” Miyashita Mia stroked her chin: “All magical girls?”

“Yes, magical girl, not a corrupted magical girl.” Yuuki Yui confirmed the other person’s statement.

"Then... what about Megumi!" Miya Miyashita was silent for a moment, then suddenly slammed her hand on the table and stood up: "Megumi, she's a magical girl too."

……

This was Yuuki Eri's oversight.

As the original plot unfolded, Miyashita Mia and Tsukimi Rie did indeed cause Helica a great deal of trouble with the series of problems they brought.

Yuuki Yukino thought so too, and this was something she had seen with her own eyes.

So she wanted to cut off this possibility at its source, which is why she went to Miyashita Mia, who might fall into darkness.

However, she overcomplicated things.

Whether Miyashita Mia will fall into darkness, and for what reason, is completely unimportant.

Since this is Helica's nightmare, the most direct way to break Helica's defenses is to eliminate the people important to her one by one.

The knot in front of him didn't need any effort to untie; a single sword stroke would solve the problem.

If Sumireko Yumehara would target the NPC Mizuno Yu, there's no reason she wouldn't target Rie Tsukimi as well.

With Inuyama Tomoe waiting nearby, Yuuki Yuuki and Miyashita Mia hurried towards Tsukimi Rie's residence as fast as they could.

Yuki Yoriichi didn't know where Miyashita Mia lived, nor did he know where Tsukimi Rie lived, so he had to call Miyashita Mia to arrange a meeting.

Fortunately, I sought out Miyashita Mia first, which allowed me to realize so quickly that I had fallen into a cognitive trap.

It was also because of Miyashita Mia leading the way that Yuuki Yukino was able to go straight to Tsukimi Rie's residence.

Yuuki Yui originally planned to go find Nishio Reki as soon as possible, since she had already learned about Nishio Reki's location when the festival ended, and this fact should not change in the dream.

Moreover, Yuuki Yuki is almost certain that Nishio Reki hasn't come to his senses yet, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to her home or school to discuss countermeasures with her.

The trip to find Tsukimi Rie did indeed save Yuuki En the time it would have taken to find Nishio Reki.

On the way, Yuuki Yuuki immediately recognized the girl on a rooftop who was wearing sportswear that didn't match Nishio Ryū's usual style, and whose face was covered by a hood, mask and sunglasses. She was Nishio Ryū himself.

To be precise, it was Nishio Reki's typical attire during the period when he still referred to himself as the Mysterious Man.

However, the protagonist at this moment is not Nishio Reki; Nishio Reki is just watching quietly from the sidelines.

At the center of the conflict are two magical girls crossing paths in the nearby sky.

One of them, Yuuki Yuki, was unfamiliar with the magical power emanating from her, perhaps due to cognitive barriers at work. But the other was undoubtedly the magical girl form of Yumehara Sumireko that they had seen before.

"benefit!"

Miya Miyashita, who transformed instantly, confirmed with her shout that the other magical girl, whom Yuuki Yuuki didn't recognize, was the one they needed to save.

Yuuki Yui was once again thankful that she had stumbled upon Miyashita Mia by accident; otherwise, it would have been too late to act once they sensed the magic.

Even though Yuuki Yui arrived as soon as she discovered the problem, the situation is still critical.

The soft, fluffy magical outfit, resembling a bathrobe, clung to Sumireko Yumehara's body. Her movements, like the outfit itself, exuded a languid charm.

But behind those languid movements lay an incredibly fierce offensive, which Tsukimi Rie, whose magical girl powers had weakened to a certain extent, simply could not withstand.

Although Yuuki Yukino didn't have a clear understanding of just how strong Yumehara Sumireko was in the dream, she realized something after Miyashita Mia rushed into the battle and the situation didn't change much.

Sumireko Yumehara's level is at least that of Komari.

This is just the lower limit; as for the upper limit, Yuuki Yuki hasn't reached it yet.

The assessment of her strength flashed through her mind only briefly before Yuuki Yukino immediately followed up with her transformation.

The most urgent task is to stop Sumireko Yumehara from continuing her persecution of Rie Tsukimi.

But Sumireko Yumehara had no intention of giving Enishi Yuuki that chance.

The moment Yuuki Yuki completed her transformation, Yumehara Sumireko, who had sensed Yuuki Yuki's ⊙ Thought Magic, turned and ran.

Yuki Yukino wouldn't give Yumehara Sumireko that kind of opportunity, so she immediately sped up to catch up.

Following closely behind, Inuyama Tomoe did the same, chasing after Yumehara Sumireko's retreating figure as they sped off towards the other side of the city.

This is the best choice. Sumireko Yumehara has already shown up, and Reki Nishio is keeping an eye on things on the other side, so there shouldn't be any problems.

If I can really get rid of Sumireko Yumehara here, maybe this nightmare can finally end.

On the other side, Miya Miyashita embraced the extremely weak Rie Tsukimi in mid-air, and the two slowly descended to the ground.

"Hui, you still..."

Miyashita Mia's words were cut off before she could finish speaking, and apart from a few dry, hoarse groans, she couldn't utter a single complete syllable.

Miyashita Mia lowered her head and looked at her chest, where one hand was trapped between her astonishingly large, yet not particularly proud, treasure chest.

Without a doubt, that hand belonged to Rie Tsukimi.

Rie Tsukimi had done something similar as a joke before, but this time it was different.

This time, Tsukimi Rie's hand went deeper, deep enough to touch her body and completely penetrate her chest.

"Gu..."

Miyashita Mia felt something sweet and sticky rise up in her throat, filling her mouth, blocking her breath, and causing her to cough involuntarily.

Spots of bright red blood were expelled with Miyashita Miya's cough and splattered onto the cheeks of the girl in her arms.

Then more, scalding liquid flowed from Miyashita Mia's mouth, more and more, so much that her vision was filled with large patches of bright red, so much that her vision became increasingly blurry.

Through her blurred vision, the face of the girl in Miyashita's arms gradually began to look unfamiliar.

"I...I...I did something bad again, but it's okay, it's okay. You're not a real human, so it's alright."

Miyashita Mia heard the girl say that.

"I'm sorry, but it's so I can make new friends!"

In the distant horizon, the magic that had been chased away by the two corrupted magical girls suddenly exploded.

That was the last thing Miya Miya remembered.
