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

"Sorry……"

The girl spoke, wrapping the blanket around herself even tighter.

"I have nowhere else to go."

Chapter 121 I Have Nowhere to Go

Yuuki Yuen had once heard of such a saying.

The most annoying thing a person can do is to run to their nemesis's doorstep and say to her like a stray puppy, "I have nowhere else to go."

But when she actually encountered such a situation herself, she became at a loss.

Saint Shion, wrapped in a blanket, stood in front of her, while Kuroba Laisei stood behind her. The two of them were covered in snowflakes, and it was unclear how long they had been waiting there.

Let them in? Or send them back?

Yuuki Yui really couldn't figure out how she could please everyone.

The trouble that Saint Yuu Academy is in today is all caused by Saint Shion. Her battle with Saint Shion was only a few hours ago. Now that the source of all evil has appeared at her doorstep, it is only natural that Yuuki Yui is unwilling to receive her.

However, Yuuki knew that if she acted too violently and it caused a war between the two sides, her house would be destroyed by the aftershocks of the battle.

Moreover, the fact that these two people didn't immediately transform into his enemies upon seeing him already speaks volumes.

But in any case, standing here without saying a word is not a good solution.

"Lin, you should go back first," Yuki Yuen instructed Lin Jiezi behind her.

Lin Jiezi looked up at Yuki Yuki with concern. After receiving a confident look from Yuki Yuki, she took out her keys, opened her front door, and quickly went inside.

How did you find us?

After dealing with Lin Jiezi's problem, she turned to Yuuki Yukino, who was swirling around her like a vortex, and asked coldly. Her magic enveloped her body.

“I’ve been here once before.” Seishin wrapped the blanket around herself even tighter. “It was around the time when Inuyama Tomoe and that black-haired magical girl were fighting over a boy.”

She remembered Yuuki Yuki, which was after the festival ended, right after Kuroba Reisei was defeated by them.

Yuuki Yukari found Nishio Reki's location through the order information and forcibly dragged Reki back to school. Reki didn't know how to make amends, so he kept trying to make amends, which led to a confrontation between him and Tomoe.

After that, the two of them had a contest at Yuuki Yuuki's house, where they could name more of Yuuki's good points. Seishin joined in uninvited.

"What do you want from me?" Yuuki asked again, her aloof tone making her attitude clear.

"Because I have nowhere else to go. Whenever I appear in public, whether I'm walking on the street or going to a hotel or restaurant, someone will spot me and Mashiro will find me."

With her head drooping, Sheng Shiyin explained to Yuuki Yuuki very slowly.

"What will happen if Mashiro Gakuen finds you?"

"She will do many outrageous things... It's impossible to list them all in one go."

"So you want me to take you in?"

Saint Shiyin's cheeks, already red from the cold, darkened even more. She bit her lower lip and hesitated for a long time before finally nodding with difficulty.

……

It was impossible to let the two of them into his house. While letting them go directly was not out of the question, and Yuuki Yuki would like to do so, it might mean losing a lot of important information.

Although Yuuki Yui dislikes Seishin, just as she dislikes Sakuragawa Nana, Seishin didn't actually cause that much damage; the extent of the damage was the least severe among Yuuki Yui's enemies.

Moreover, since she knew that Kuroba was still alive and well in her next life, and that the other person was right in front of her, Yuuki Yuen had no reason to let her leave easily.

After much deliberation, the most suitable place is Sumireko Yumehara's dream world.

Saint Shion and Kuroba Rei can't escape, and they won't be caught by Urobuchi Mashiro. If a battle breaks out, they don't have to worry about affecting the surrounding area.

Yumehara Sumireko, who spent all her time in Yuuki Yuki's handheld console, didn't have much of a chance to show off her skills. After hearing Yuuki Yuki's plea, she readily agreed.

So now, in the Dreamland, or rather, in the ruins of the Dreamland.

Yuuki Yuki sat cross-legged on the ground with her arms crossed. Beside her sat Yumehara Sumireko, who was sitting upright. Opposite her was Seishin, who was still wrapped in that blanket, and Kuroba Laisei, who stood behind Seishin like a statue, without saying a word.

Yuki Yui reminded Seishin that she could take off the blanket, but Seishin stubbornly insisted on keeping it wrapped around her.

Yuuki Yukari also realized that the reason why Seishine did this was because her arm, along with the original magical girl power she had absorbed, was directly severed by Urobuchi Mashiro.

"I don't think I've ever seen this magical girl before. I didn't know you had such a powerful ally. That's quite a surprise."

Saint Shiyin sighed, her tone filled with the dejection of defeat, all of her former dominance gone.

“There are many things you don’t know,” Yuuki Yui replied firmly, still maintaining her aloof tone.

She didn't intend to become friends with Saint Shion, at least not in this situation.

However, Yuuki Yukino didn't want to have another enemy with whom she had an irreconcilable relationship. There were many mysteries surrounding Seishin, and if they could be solved, it would be very beneficial to Yuuki Yukino.

It's much better than Seishin falling into the hands of Urouge Mashiro and being used as part of his plan.

"Ah..." Sheng Shiyin sighed weakly.

Disappointment, sadness, helplessness... a single syllable can encompass so many emotions.

Yuuki Yui noticed it, but she chose to ignore it.

"Since you chose to come to me, it means you have something to say to me, right?"

What do you want to hear?

Yuuki En glanced at Kuroba Ryou, who was always standing behind Seishine.

"Let's start with her."

“Ah, okay.” Sheng Shiyin nodded and began to tell the story of Kuroba’s reincarnation.

What Saint Shiyin said was very easy to understand; it was just the result of Saint Shiyin changing his mind several times.

On the day of the festival, Kuroba Reisei decided to take this opportunity to cause a ruckus, so he launched an attack.

The rampaging Kuroba Reise was later stopped by Yuuki Yuki and her group, and she defeated them all by fighting against multiple opponents. What happened next is well known: Yuuki Yuki used Yuki Yuki's Soul to defeat Kuroba Reise, and then Seishine suddenly appeared and delivered the final blow to Kuroba Reise, successfully eliminating her as promised to Inuyama Tomoe.

Of course, eliminating Kuroba Reisei was just a way of putting it. It would be a shame not to make use of such a powerful corrupted magical girl, so Seishine held back a little before Kuroba Reisei completely collapsed.

Although Kuroba Rise, surrounded by nuns, looked miserable, her soul was not sent into the original magical girl cycle, and the trial was just a charade.

No one knew about this except for Saint Shion and her few bodyguard nuns. Kuroba Reise was also locked up in a place where no one could find him by Saint Shion's nuns and underwent "re-education" for several months.

The final result was just as Jie Qun Yin Wo? Qiu Er Lin Qi "Si Ba Cheng Yuan saw. The arrogant and conceited scoundrel Kuroba Lai Sheng was no different from being judged. He had completely become Sheng Shi Yin's servant.

Even Genki Mashiro didn't know about this secret weapon, which is why Seishion was able to bypass Genki Mashiro and release those videos, allowing Seishion to escape successfully today despite being at her wit's end.

However, the price was extremely high. The last nun maid of Seishin sacrificed her own life, pouring all her magic power into Kuroba Laisei's body, which enabled Kuroba Laisei to unleash the power to save Seishin in front of so many magical girls.

That said, the so-called re-education was part of making Kuroba Rebirth obedient, while the other part was the contract that Seishine intended to use to lock up Inuyama Tomoe, but which was later torn up by Yuuki Yukino.

Saint Shiyin said: "That is a contract created by borrowing the power of the rules. It is also the collar that our Saint Shiyin used to restrain the Sisters of the Holy Church and prevent them from rebelling. Even if I tell you, it doesn't matter. The premise for it to be effective is 'exchange'."

"Exchange?" Yuuki Yui frowned in confusion.

“That’s right. We grant their wishes, and they offer us what we’ve agreed upon. It’s an exchange, a necessary condition of the contract. But what we give is usually insignificant. Even so, once such a contract is established, no one can break it—theoretically, that’s how it is,” Saint Shiyin replied.

But there are exceptions, Yuuki Yukino thought.

"However, there have been two exceptions. The first was Saint Zhenbai, who somehow destroyed her collar, rebelled against the entire church, and caused damage that we still cannot repair, bringing the entire church to a standstill."

When Sheng Shiyin mentioned that name, the fear on her face was especially evident.

Then, she looked at Yuuki Yukino and asked in return.

"The second person, need I say more?"

"Need not."

"That's why I was so surprised when you did this, and that's why I tried so hard to stop you from meeting Mashiro when I learned you were going to Rainbow Leaf City."

"That's right, I know all of that."

Seishin's honesty was indeed something Yuuki Yukino hadn't expected, but it was even better this way. The existence of that so-called contract meant that Kuroba Rebirth was absolutely loyal to Seishin.

So, the reason why Saint Shion rushed to use the nuns to solve the problem of Kuroba Rebirth before her was also explained. At the same time, Yuuki Yui also learned something: the contract allowed for deception, or unilateral deception.

Saint Shion did not actually execute Kuroba Rebirth completely, but because Baqi believed it, the contract was established.

The contract also had a strong sense of déjà vu, as if the girl became a magical girl because her wish was fulfilled.

However, since they are both primordial forces, it is understandable that their modes of action are similar.

"However, there is one thing I don't know, and you must answer me here."

Yuuki Yukino let out a slow, even breath.

"Kuroba Reisei, Inuyama Tomoe, Kou Mari, you've always been placing a real manager in your own positions. The so-called student council president is just an excuse, isn't it?"

"Saint Shiyin, what is your real reason for needing them?"

Chapter 122 Light and Shadow

In the distant past, there existed a peaceful and secluded village.

One day, a young girl came to the village and bestowed blessings upon the villagers.

One day, darkness suddenly descended, bringing chaos to the village.

One day, the girl used everything she had as a cage, locking herself and the darkness forever in a place unknown to anyone.

As the days went by, the village gradually prospered.

As the days passed, the girl's story was gradually forgotten.

In the end, only the nameless church remained, following the girl's shadow in obscurity from ancient times to the present.

“And we who are called ‘saints’ are all descendants of that girl, with her blood flowing in our veins, and we are born with an inescapable fate.”

As she spoke, Seishin gathered her remaining hand behind her head, showing Yuuki Eri her long, light yellow hair.

Saint's family are all descendants of the original magical girls.

Upon hearing this news, Yuuki Yuuki found it incredibly surreal, but not particularly surprising.

Saint Shion can use a portion of the original magical girl's power to create rules. Mashiro Urokin said that Saint Shion can contain the original magic power, as well as the destruction tonight. In fact, Yuuki Yuuki has been hinted at or explicitly stated many times.

The original magical girls who chased after Xiao Li, the omnipresent nuns, the guards of Saint Shion, Saint Shion, Saint Inori... almost everyone who is associated with Saint Yuu Academy or even the church behind them has this in common.

She wore a nun's habit and had light blonde hair.

Saint Shion spoke with such conviction that Yuuki En felt it didn't seem fake.
