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

But she saw that the bright red blood beneath her was fading at an extremely rapid pace, as if it had seeped into the soil and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Along with that pool of crimson, the original magical girl who had driven her, Nishio Reki, and Papa Shichi to their current state also vanished.

Yuki Yui couldn't see clearly, but she heard a crisp sound, as if something had been broken, and then Lin Jiezi's figure disappeared without a trace.

Lin Jiezi has indeed disappeared; at least now, he poses no threat to her.

Yuuki Yukino had no time to think about whether Nishio Reki had returned to reality or whether he could deal with Hayashi Mustard.

It must have been a success, right? Otherwise, Lin Jiezi wouldn't have been able to leave.

In short, Lin Jiezi is indeed gone.

However, the injuries Lin Jiezi inflicted on him would not disappear with her. That power had already torn a large hole in his body, and Yuuki Yuen could clearly feel that his life seemed to be slipping away with time.

This feeling was incredibly novel, and even the pain itself felt incredibly novel to Yuuki Eri.

But it hurts so much, it really hurts so much that Yuuki Yuki's vision went black.

Is it because of the pain, or is it because of excessive blood loss that he is nearing the end?

Yuuki Yukino really can't think of anything.

The rest is up to Baki and Helica to handle themselves.

If this farce hasn't shattered Helica's nightmare yet...

Forget it, I can't think of that much anymore.

So tired, so sleepy.

I just want to sleep forever.

Yuuki En thought to herself, then slowly closed her eyes.

A purple thread slowly emerged from Yuuki Emi's wound.

From one end to the other, it spans the entire wound through which Yuuki Eri was pierced.

It shifted slightly at a precise angle and crossed again, from one end to the other.

Like a spider's web, Liu Ba 9 Wu VIIlVI Qiu is Ming Wu, slowly repairing the wound on Yu Cheng Yuan.

The pale purple hue gradually filled in, eventually covering the entire wound of Liu Bajiu`5LinShiLinw{uJiechengYuan.

From the wound, a new bud sprouts silently.

But Yuuki Yukino was completely unaware.

She felt as if something had appeared and something else had been taken away.

She only felt that her consciousness was gradually fading away.

……

"Hey! Hey! Wake up! What are you doing!"

Herica's voice rang in Yuuki Yuuki's ears.

"Huh? Ah?"

Yuuki Yuuki cried out, only to find that her body had already sunk below the surface of the water.

The scalding liquid poured into her nasal cavity and mouth, burning her delicate mucous membranes, making Yuuki Yuen feel as if she had swallowed a fireball, with a burning pain inside her body.

Yuuki Yui thrashed about in the water, using both her hands and feet. Even though she was completely submerged, she could still see how high the water splashed up as she struggled like a drowning kitten.

Fortunately, the water wasn't deep, and Yuuki Yuki easily stood up.

However, she felt it was better not to stand up.

The water beneath his feet was only knee-deep, steaming hot air, but the steam was not enough to completely cover his body.

His body, covered in water droplets, was now completely exposed to Helica's eyes.

"babble--"

Yuuki Yukino blushed and hugged her knees to completely cover up the parts of her limp body that shouldn't be seen by others.

This time, Yuuki Enishi splashed much less water.

"Hey, are you out of your mind from soaking in the water?"

Herlica raised her hand to wipe the water that Yuuki had splashed on her face, and asked with a look of disdain.

"Did you get dizzy from soaking?" Yuuki Yu was slightly taken aback, only then realizing that she was in a hot spring.

In fact, Yuuki Yuuki should have realized it much earlier, but first she drowned in the hot spring, and then she found herself showing Helica her whole self, so her reaction was a little too strong.

It's my old problem. I caused a big incident on my first day of school because I was too flustered. I thought I had changed.

"Wait, why are we soaking in a hot spring?" Yuuki Yuuki quickly realized the problem: "Shouldn't we be... we should be..."

She felt she had something important to say or something important to do, but she just couldn't remember it for the moment.

Whenever she tries to think hard, she feels a headache coming on.

“You’re really out of your mind! We’re on a date, just the two of us! At the hot springs, in Nijiha City!” Herica climbed closer from the water and tapped Yuuki Yukino’s head with her finger.

"It seems so." Yuuki Yui nodded, feeling that her mind was still a little unclear. "What about the others?"

“There’s no one else! I already said it was just the two of us, alone!” Helica pouted and then pretended to raise her fist.

The splashing water hit Yuuki Yuki's face, causing her to shrink back in fear as she hugged her knees, retreating a short distance in the water.

Her reaction was still quite strong, and water splashed onto Helica's face again.

Helica wiped the water off her face again and gave a forced smile.

"Three times! Three times! You actually splashed water on my face three times!"

"I didn't mean to... Pfft!"

Just as Yuuki was about to explain, she saw Helica cup her hands in water and splash it into Yuuki's mouth.

"What are you doing!" Yuuki Yui, who wasn't angry but was a little resentful, snapped at Helica and splashed water in Helica's direction.

Yuuki's deliberate actions clearly provoked Helica's competitive spirit. The petite girl was no slouch when it came to a water fight, and immediately dodged Yuuki's splash.

"Fine! You did this on purpose! I won't hold back!"

Herlica grinned, revealing a competitive yet happy smile, and scooped up another handful of water with both hands.

……

Helica dodged the attack of the vines, or rather tentacles, of the girl in the center of the blooming flower by sidestepping.

The tentacles merely brushed past her waist, yet Herika felt her body shaken and become unsteady from the force of the impact.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Why can't I even scratch this guy?!"

Helica gritted her teeth, her expression furious, and with her hands gripping the warhammer tightly, she unleashed a twisted jet of heat several meters in diameter as it crashed down.

The warhammer did indeed strike the girl's body, but her body only swayed a few times.

Calling it a "hit" is a huge misnomer.

Helica saw with her own eyes that the girl simply raised her slender arm, placed her hand on her wand, and then the lightning disappeared through her palm.

Before the tentacles could climb up the girl's arm and onto her wand, Helica stepped back slightly.

The purple tentacles that snaked around the girl's arms failed to catch their prey and retreated sheepishly, merging with the magical armor on the girl's body.

Can that thing really be called magical armor?

Helica, who had stepped back, was able to see the girl's full appearance again.

The pink-haired girl emerging from the flower bud is covered from the chest down by purple lines, like a dress, outlining her figure.

Starting from the thighs, the entire body blends seamlessly with the blooming purple flower, or rather, is embedded in its heart, as if the whole flower were worn on the body.

You should know that it wasn't just any ordinary flower; it was a colossal creature that could stretch across half a street and was tens of meters tall.

If you look at the two separately, the threat that such a huge flower posed to Helica was not even one-tenth or one-twelfth of that of the pink-haired girl who was the absolute core.

The fact that the pink-haired girl had no intention of harming anyone else was already a stroke of luck for Helica.

But she herself was the unfortunate one.

Because the pink-haired girl was undoubtedly there for her.

Herlica herself was unaware that she could unleash such power, as if she had suddenly become much stronger overnight.

Skill, the amount of magic, and the degree of control over one's wand...

She seems to be much stronger than her respected senior, Tsukimi, at her peak.

But he was helpless against the girl in front of him.

No matter how strong Helica's attacks were, they had no effect on her opponent.

Did the grounding tendrils act as a grounding wire, helping her distribute a large amount of voltage?

Not only that, those minor details wouldn't make the battle so one-sided.

More importantly, there is an absolute difference in strength between the two.

What can we do now? It's too late to train and level up.

If I can't handle it anymore...

Before thinking about such things, focus all your efforts on defeating the enemy in front of you!

Golden lightning shook the earth and resounded through the sky, launching wave after wave of attacks on the giant flower below, guided by the girl.

Piercing lightning spears, restraining lightning chains, and the punitive lightning hammer falling from Helica's hand were all scorching the enormous thing beneath the pink-haired girl.

The translucent dotted lines that make up the flower stem are being consumed by Helica's attacks, like pieces of paper that have been set on fire.

Herlica's magic was being consumed continuously, like water being poured out of a reservoir.

Whether one's own magic will run out first, or the opponent will be burned to ashes by the heat of one's punishment, is left to fate.

In order to fulfill her duty as a magical girl, Helica Tenrai feels that her body is now filled with endless power.

It can work!

I can do it!
