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

Baqi's loud shout startled Helica, who covered her ears and stumbled back several steps, seemingly about to lash out. But seeing Baqi's focused expression on the phone, she could only grit her teeth and kick the pebbles on the ground twice.

"Where are you?"

Baqi, who was on the phone, was also coming to an end. She sighed heavily, her voice becoming much softer and revealing obvious fatigue.

"okay, I get it."

Helica watched as Baki took the phone away from her ear, turned off the screen, and then eagerly leaned in again: "Who is it? Who is it? What do they want? You seem very agitated, what happened?"

"It is Xu Yan Zhen Shiro."

Baqi answered only the first question, which immediately silenced everyone.

Before they could think further, Baqi, who had no intention of keeping them in suspense, directly revealed news that surprised everyone even more.

"She said, 'Red and the hundred demons have awakened.'"

……

Outside the ward of Yuehai City Hospital.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, my dear sister."

Wearing a hospital gown, Hong Moli walked out of the ward. Although it had only been a few days since I last saw her, I could tell that she had lost a lot of weight, and it seemed that the days she spent lying in bed had not been easy for her.

As she spoke, Hong Moli scratched her head with a hint of guilt.

"Qianyou is still undergoing examination. She slept for so long and then suddenly woke up again. We can't tell them about the magical girl, so this kind of examination is unavoidable. It's not my turn yet, so I came out by myself first."

"Are you alright? After Yumehara Sumireko pulled you inside, you weren't hurt or wronged, were you?"

Baqi's face was somewhat gloomy, but she didn't mention Yuuki Eri at all, and instead inquired about Koumori's condition.

The awakening of Koumori and Chiyuu must have been thanks to Yuuki Yukino, who must have done something after being taken away by Yumehara Sumireko.

If Yuuki Yuki had returned safely, she would definitely have contacted me. There is only one possibility: Yuuki Yuki is still in danger.

At the very least, he was entangled in guessing and guessing with Yumehara Sumireko.

Although Baqi hasn't shown it yet, she's actually been extremely anxious for a long time.

However, it's not the right time yet. Hong Moli has just woken up, and it's only right and proper that she should first pay attention to the other person's condition.

Without Yuuki Yukino's help, they are unable to interfere with any dreams. Even if Baqi is anxious now, she can only worry helplessly.

Although she is straightforward, she is not completely oblivious to subtle cues.

"It's nothing, we're all fine, and we haven't suffered any injustice. Apart from lying down for a few days, we're no different from before." Hong Moli's head seemed to lower a little more.

Such a small action was not a good sign, and it immediately made Ba Qi's heart skip a beat.

Ba Qi resisted the urge to grab Hong Moli's thin shoulders and shake him a few times to make him spill everything he knew, and then said, "Then you..."

The words were on the tip of her tongue, but Inuyama Tomoe, who was usually quick to speak, choked up and didn't know how to start.

She suddenly realized that it wasn't that she didn't intend to ask before; she was just a little afraid to find out what had happened.

She was afraid to recall the night when Yuuki Yuki and Tenrai Herika risked their lives to block Kuroba Reisei so that they could escape, and she was afraid to experience that helplessness again.

But Hong Moli's words confirmed Ba Qi's suspicions.

“Yuki Yuki, she sent us all out of that place, but she herself stayed inside.”

Chapter 219 I'd really like to have a chat with you

"Hong, you mean... Xiaoyuan sent you all out, but stayed inside alone?"

Baqi repeated what Hong Moli had just said, seemingly without any changes to the original text.

Baqi's obviously unusual behavior made Hong Moli's throat bob a few times. She swallowed the saliva secreted due to nervousness, and finally just nodded in agreement with what Baqi had said.

"It's okay, it's okay." Ba Qi rubbed her head, and anyone could tell that she was just trying to comfort herself.

A few seconds later, Baqi calmed down a little and rubbed her temples with her bent index finger: "Tell me what exactly happened, start from the beginning, yes, from the very beginning."

Hong Moli looked around, first glancing at the closed ward behind her, then pointing to a bench at the end of the hospital corridor: "There are too many people here, let's talk over there."

A moment later, near the bench.

“At first, I felt like I was having a very long dream, a dream full of unpleasant things, things about my family, things about Kuroba’s reincarnation, and things about Chiyou. It was as if I was being driven by those negative emotions.”

Others not only know, but have also personally experienced, the methods by which Sumireko Yumehara pulls the magical girls into deeper layers of dreams.

However, Hong Moli did not elaborate, so no one interrupted her train of thought and simply listened quietly to her story.

Hong Moli knew perfectly well what everyone wanted to hear from her, so she omitted most of the unimportant details and only gave a brief overview.

"After that, I felt my body sinking deeper and deeper into a place deeper than the dream, a space created by all sorts of unsettling magic."

"But apart from that, there is no danger. To make a long story short, besides me, there are also Chiyu and those two magical girls you all know. We are all trapped there and cannot leave."

"I also learned a lot from that magical girl named Mizuno Yu, and the few of us can move around freely within a certain area."

"But whenever we try to fight that magical girl named Sumireko Yumehara, she disappears in a flash. She only comes to visit us occasionally, and most of the time she hides away."

"However, Sumireko Yumehara didn't really do anything to us. She just said things like she wanted to be friends with us and protect us. If we didn't agree, she didn't force us. She just said she would wait for us to change our minds."

"Later, I sensed the appearance of Yuuki Yukino's magic, but as you know, I'm a bit too sensitive to magic. In places filled with strange magic, I couldn't pinpoint it properly."

"Although we have tried to find traces of Sumireko Yumehara and Yuuki Yuki, we have not been able to find any until just now. It seems that the magic of that mysterious space has been absorbed by something."

"All of us magical girls who were trapped there rushed in that direction, and then we saw Yuuki Yuuki fighting against the gathered magic all by herself, so we joined the battle."

"And then..."

……

The blade flashed and disappeared in an instant. The pale giant was cut in two by Hanzawa Kuriko, and its massive body, as large as a small mountain, crashed down.

Hiding behind the giant monster, Yuuki Yuki seized the opportunity and swung her chainsaw, which roared and began to spin, cutting a shocking wound on Hanzawa Kuriko's arm, who had no time to dodge.

Hanzawa Kuriko's face paled considerably. She twisted the sleeve of the magic armor on her injured hand with her fingers, wrapped it around her fingers twice, and brought it to her mouth. She bit down on the magic armor and ripped a piece off.

Yuuki Yukino's attack arrived immediately, striking several times in the darkness, but Hanzawa Kuriko barely managed to dodge them, widening the distance between the two even further.

Hanzawa Kuriko, holding the sleeve she had torn off, wrapped it around the wound Yuuki had left on her several times, using both her hands and mouth to tighten the sleeve, which she was using as a bandage, around her arm.

"Well done, Xiaoyuan, you're much better than your older sister."

"Thank you for the compliment, but unfortunately, I don't feel happy at all from your praise."

Yuuki En shook the chainsaw in her hand, and the lines that made up the chainsaw reassembled in her hand, instantly piecing together a huge katana.

"Again?" Yuuki Yukina beckoned to Hanzawa Kuriko with her finger.

"Again!" Hanzawa Kuriko charged out, dragging her battle axe.

The girls clashed again, their longswords and battle axes creating several afterimages. The clanging of metal against metal was unusually rapid, and the sparks from their clashing wands were dazzling.

“Her speed has increased again,” Hyakki Chiyu said in a deep voice, “but it’s still not as fast as our limit.”

"Speed ​​isn't always better the faster it is. If you only have speed but no power, then such an attack is meaningless. Both of them are intentionally controlling their speed to match each other's, preparing to make an effective strike."

Hong Moli stared intently at the two sides engaged in battle, her expression unusually solemn.

"If it were me, I don't think I could last long in this situation."

Even a child can easily swing a stick wildly and rapidly, but if that stick had the density of gold, not only a child, but even an adult might not be able to swing it.

Hanzawa Kuriko and Yuuki Yuuki are doing just that.

Sakura Hanako suddenly screamed, "They've separated!"

Yuki Yuki and Hanzawa Kuriko had already retreated from the opponent's attack range before Sakura Hanako shouted those words.

"How is it going?" Sakura Hanako wanted to peek out, but hesitated because of her current spectator position and didn't want to be too obvious.

Mizuno Yu frowned slightly: "The one who suffered a loss this round is Yuuki."

Just as Mizuno Yu said, Yuuki Yuki's body swayed, as if she might fall to the ground at any moment.

The shrine maiden's outfit on the side burst open with a bang, revealing a wound on Yuuki Enishi's waist. The bright red blood stained the red clothes on her lower body even redder.

"Hiss." Yuuki Yuuki gritted her teeth, her fingers tapping lightly in the air as if playing a piano.

The delicate lines that make up the wand flew out from the wand and crawled along Yuuki Yuki's sleeve like little earthworms, reaching Yuuki Yuki's waist in an instant.

The dark purple line, which had come close to Yuuki Yuki's wound, bent and peered around before burrowing into the wound and stitching up the scars caused by Yumehara Sumireko.

Both sides have their victories and defeats.

The same thought simultaneously popped into the minds of all the magical girls watching the battle.

Yuuki Yukino's strength should be more than that, but she just blocked such a powerful magical impact, and it seems she went through a fierce battle before. It would be quite difficult for her to defeat the enemy under these circumstances.

It's already a miracle that they were able to hold out against the other side for so long.

"I see." Yuuki Yuuki gasped, but did not rush to launch another attack on Hanzawa Kuriko.

"Hmm?" Hanzawa Kuriko snorted softly, seemingly not in a hurry to continue entangled with Yuuki Yuuki. Instead, she put down the battle axe in her hand, stood it upright on the ground, and raised her eyebrows in Yuuki Yuuki's direction.

"Red, a hundred demons."

Both Hyakki Senyou and Koumori were startled when Yuuki Yuki suddenly called their names.

"what happened?"

Is there anything I need to tell you?

Instead of answering their questions directly, Yuuki Yuuki turned her head to the other side, looking at the two magical girls who had once belonged to Nijisanji.

"And Sakura, and Mizuno."

Feeling a sense of foreboding as she was being stared at, Sakura Hanako called out to Yuuki Yukino with a slightly shaky voice, her anxiety seemingly about to overflow from her chest.

"Senior Yuuki?!"

Mizuno Yu glanced at Yuuki Yuki and sighed softly through her nose.

"I'll send you out of the Dream Realm in a moment. My Nyarlathotep can do this with ease. That's how we got in. Hyakki and Mizuno both know that."

As Yuuki Yukari spoke, she turned her head back to Hanzawa Kuriko.

"You don't have any objections, do you?"

“Of course not. I have no grudge against those people, and whether they stay or leave has nothing to do with me. Except for you, you can't leave.” Hanzawa Kuriko rested one hand on the handle of her battle axe, leaning her entire body against it.

"But you're not planning to leave, are you?"
