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

Helica also felt that she shouldn't have acted like this; it was just, just a trivial little thing.

But the last straw that broke the camel's back was just a single straw.

Humans possess a self-protection mechanism that allows them to force themselves to calm down when faced with stimuli.

However, even the slightest stimulus can act like a trigger, causing all the pent-up emotions to erupt.

Now, Helica is no longer listening to anything.

All she knew was that someone was saying something to her.

She felt a churning in her stomach, even though it was empty.

"Gu..."

Herlica covered her mouth, knelt down, and tried to calm her intense urge to vomit her soul.

However, her current reaction has caused concern among the waiters.

"Sir, if you are not feeling well, we can help you go to the hospital."

"I told you not to touch me!"

This time, Helica actually yelled it out.

Then, she could no longer suppress that intense desire, her bent knees buckled, and she knelt directly on the mess.

The girl kept gagging, as if she wanted to vomit her stomach out with it.

The girl kept gagging, but nothing came out.

"sorry!"

Everyone who had stopped what they were doing because of this sudden turn of events and looked at Helica heard her loud apology.

Stress response – this is a term that comes to mind for many people.

Although we don't know what happened to the girl, she must have encountered something very bad.

No one will blame her for her overreaction, and no one will laugh at her for it.

That's what everyone thinks.

Aside from Helica herself.

She only felt that she had gone too far.

She only felt ashamed.

She just wanted to escape from here as soon as possible.

So she ran away.

Filled with inferiority, and burdened by the mockery and stares that existed only in her own imagination, she ran away.

He rose from the food scraps scattered on the ground, lifted his legs—cut by the shattered bowl—and ran away with all his might.

I know perfectly well that if I don't do something, I might never change.

I will still hurt others with my sharp exterior, and I will still be unable to protect what I cherish and my soft heart.

They will still be just as arrogant and just as insecure.

It will still be the same—nobody cares.

From the very beginning, there was no place that could accommodate me.

Panting heavily, Helica seemed relieved and lay down on her back, facing the sky.

……

"Don't chase me anymore! You're a bad person! A bad person!"

Dressed like a giant plush teddy bear, Sumireko Yumehara curled herself into a ball, bouncing between buildings like a large hamster ball.

"What are you saying?! Don't cry wolf! You started it!"

Following closely behind was Baqi, dressed in a deep red demonic outfit. She moved on all fours like a wild beast running along an upright wall, not lagging behind Yumehara Sumireko who was running ahead.

"I...I!" Sumireko Yumehara stammered, rolling faster and faster to dodge the musket bullets fired by Baqi. Her petite body made it very difficult for Baqi to hit her.

However, the shockwave from the explosion still enveloped Sumireko Yumehara's body, and this time, Sumireko Yumehara was no longer moving by rolling when she was thrown out.

It took Baqi quite a bit of effort to find Yumehara Sumireko and catch up with her. Seeing that her attack had worked, Baqi excitedly clenched her fist.

"What do you mean, 'you'! It's all your fault! If you don't want me to pursue you, then give back everyone you took away!"

"You, you're bullying people! You'll be punished too! You wait, while you're asleep! The next one to be arrested will be you too."

Yumehara Sumireko's body crashed heavily to the ground. Before Baqi could catch up, she nimbly and awkwardly scrambled to her feet and continued running.

Of course, Baqi wouldn't let the other person escape from her sight. She turned around and shot herself out like an arrow towards Yumehara Sumireko's body.

As Baqi arrived, deep cracks resembling scratches appeared on the ground, but Yumehara Sumireko had already left her attack range.

It's still a little slow.

But Baqi wasn't discouraged; she even had the mood to provoke Yumehara Sumireko in the same tone she used when arguing with Herika.

"I'm bullying you? Fine! Then arrest me right now! You can't do that, can you? Absolutely not! Tch! Then let me teach you a lesson!"

In her opinion, Sumireko Yumehara's strength wasn't that great. She was strong enough to deal with a few magical girls who couldn't use God Release, but she was still somewhat inferior to herself.

This is Helica's dream. Yuuki and Nishio Reki went back to rest first, and no one knows what they are doing now. Baqi doesn't want to make too much noise, as it would be bad if she disturbed Helica or Yuuki.

In the end, he's just a little devil who can take advantage of people's vulnerability. Apart from bringing nightmares and having some ability to take people who are vulnerable in their dreams to some other place, he's not a big deal.

In someone else's dream, the other person can't even do anything to you; they can only be chased around on the ground.

It seems Xiao Yuan overestimated this guy. If possible, let's defeat him completely now!

"Waaaaah! Waaaaah—No! Don't come any closer! Otherwise I'll! Otherwise I'll use that!"

Sumireko Yumehara's voice was tinged with tears, and she had to duck to avoid the muskets that were constantly being created around her, which slowed her down even further.

"Fine! Then use it! Whether you're a god or begging for mercy on your knees, I won't let you off easily!"

Baqi used more matchlock guns to squeeze Yumehara Sumireko's hiding space, forcing her to move in the direction she wanted.

"You forced me to do this! You'll regret it!" Sumireko Yumehara continued to threaten.

"Yes, yes, I forced you to come at me! Bring it on!" Unmoved, Baqi intensified her attack, forcing Yumehara Sumireko to retreat repeatedly.

Having been lured into a corner by Baqi's offensive, Yumehara Sumireko gritted her teeth and raised her right hand towards Baqi.

What Sumireko Yumehara wanted to show was not her palm, but the cute black magic pattern on her right thumb, resembling waves and seashells.

Responding to Yumehara Sumireko's call, the black magic patterns on her nails seemed to come alive, slowly detaching from them as the magic power surged and the patterns resembled waves.

Magic propelled the black magic runes, which, like a falling curtain, stretched across Yumehara Sumireko's face.

Yumehara Sumireko, whose face was covered by black magic patterns, appeared to Baqi to be completely different from the one she had seen before, both in terms of temperament and aura.

Now Baqi can no longer use her previous flippant attitude.

As a fallen magical girl herself, Inuyama Tomoe was well aware of what the scene before her meant by the change in the black magic markings.

It is the liberation of the gods.

As expected, Sumireko Yumehara is able to do this much because she also possesses the power of divine liberation!

Although Baqi felt that Yumehara Sumireko wasn't that strong during their recent exchange, or rather, during her relentless pursuit of Yumehara Sumireko, she was still impressed.

But she never underestimated Yumehara Sumireko. Even Kuroba Reincarnation couldn't cause them such great losses, so she was definitely not someone she should underestimate.

Inuyama Tomoe is even less arrogant enough to think that he can defeat Yumehara Sumireko if he maintains his current state.

But Baqi doesn't think she will lose.

It's just divine liberation; you can do it yourself.

But the battles that follow are destined to be anything but easy.

Baqi's pink tongue protruded from her lips, and the black magic mark imprinted on her tongue, just like Yumehara Sumireko's, left her body.

However, the aura emanating from her black magic markings was even more ferocious than that of Sumireko Yumehara.

The girls' chanting began almost simultaneously.

"I will sharpen my claws and teeth..."

"The profound ruler of illusions and dreams..."

Then, the girls' chanting was interrupted at the same time.

To be precise, it wasn't that they were interrupted, but rather that they all stopped chanting the hymns of divine liberation without prior agreement.

They had to stop their argument.

Because something even more terrifying is coming.

On the other side of the city, a chilling, dark magic shot straight into the sky.

Chapter 136 Continuous Fall

If we were to rank the strength of magical girls, the amount of magical power they possess would certainly be an important indicator.

Through combat and training, as well as innate talent, the amount of magic power will inevitably vary.

If we use stones as an example, some people may be insignificant pebbles, while others may be giant rocks.

But the quality of these pebbles seems so insignificant in the face of a mountain.

The magic that erupted from afar was like a towering mountain, suddenly appearing in a corner of the city, standing there, impossible for anyone to cross.

That might not be entirely accurate.

In Inuyama Tomoe's view, it wasn't that they were trying to compete with the mountain in weight, but rather that they had been part of the mountain from the very beginning.

When that magic appeared, Baqi felt the air around her suddenly become incredibly solid, as if a manual juicer was constantly squeezing her body.

This feeling made Inuyama Baki very uncomfortable, and for a moment she couldn't even breathe smoothly.

Essentially, it's caused by an excessive amount of magic.

The only thing capable of having such a profound impact is that original magical girl.

It could only be Lin Jiezi.
