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

The complex logic made Yuuki Enishi increasingly confused.

The golden black magic runes represent primordial power, which Yuuki En can understand. She can also understand that Seiki sealed the primordial power by using herself as a vessel. Therefore, after transferring that part of the power to Seiki Ino, the same mark will appear on her body.

But wasn't Mashiro Urouge saying that she wanted to use these magical powers to recreate a new Primordial Darkness?

Could it be that the plan changed, which is why she decided to use this power to suppress the Primal One?

No, not at all. Mashiro's panic only lasted for a moment when Seishion suddenly woke up. Immediately afterwards, she returned to normal and immediately began to do what she was doing.

Furthermore, Mashiro Urouge said that she was about to win, and that victory declaration was the best proof, which shows that the current situation is also entirely within Mashiro Urouge's plan.

So, she intended to use these powers from the very beginning...

No, I'm getting more and more confused. Yuuki Yukino's brain is starting to fail her.

Regardless of the current situation, Mashiro is injecting magic, so she shouldn't be distracted right now. As long as Mashiro is stopped, the whole plan will be put on hold, right?

Saint Hymn is being infused with power, while Saint Prayer's injuries are quite severe. If they all attack together, they could win by snatching chestnuts from the fire.

"Never mind all that, stop Genki Mashiro first!"

Yuuki Yukino raised her arm and charged out first, her imaginary wand continuously taking shape behind her, as if she were wearing a long dress made of sword blades.

Asahimi took a step forward, dragging his somewhat clumsy steps, and stood in front of Gen Ken Mashiro to block her path.

Black tentacles grew out of thin air. Although Asahimi had a lot of magic power, her attack methods were still the same old ones.

"Don't worry! Her abilities are just ordinary manipulation of these tentacles, or summoning lots and lots of nuns to stop us! But she's all alone! She'll just charge straight in!"

Herlica brandished her fists and charged into the wildly spreading forest of tentacles. Bright white lightning stood out against the darkness, and large swathes of tentacles fell to the ground.

"Senior Tianlei is right! Let's go!"

Sakura Hanako echoed, and the snake staff in her hand began to change shape in the emerald green magical light, and even the retro magical outfit she wore began to dissipate.

"Steroids!"

Sakura Hanako's divine release was immediately activated, and ginger-yellow magic flew out from the syringe that Sakura Hanako was holding and flowed into the bodies of the surrounding girls.

The magical girls, who had just gone through a series of battles, suddenly felt lighter. The fatigue they had accumulated vanished completely, and they were even more energetic than before.

This highlights the importance of support. Sakura Hanako, who is rarely useful on the front lines, becomes the most reliable logistical support when continuous combat is required.

The gray mist moved up and down with the movements of the hundred ghosts and a thousand spirits, and wherever it went, large areas of tentacles quickly withered. The magic wand representing death had encountered the god who controlled life, and the effect was immediate.

Even though Hong Moli's destructive power is not as great as Bai Gui Qian You's, the chainsaw cleans up the tentacles as easily as chopping melons and vegetables wherever it goes.

Nishio Reki originally wanted to use this method to awaken the Primal and let the Primal wreak havoc, regardless of the outcome, at least to thwart Genki Mashiro's plan.

But now, her idea is feasible, but Mashiro Gorgen has also prepared countermeasures, so a feasible idea may not necessarily lead to a good result.

While Nishio Reki was still struggling with his decision, he felt someone tap his shoulder.

"Don't just stand there! Help Xiaoyuan stop that guy!"

Baqi gave Nishio Reki a hard shove, then followed Yuuki Yuki without looking back, gripping her gun blade.

Nishio Reki's confused look suddenly became much more determined.

That's right, why worry about so much? Let's deal with Grimm and Mashiro first!

Everyone is doing the same thing, everyone is trying their best to open up the direction of the front wing (the direction of the scarred zero tumor clothing), and the tentacle clusters are decreasing at a visible rate.

It looks scary, but with everyone's combined efforts, it's not such a big deal!

As Yuuki Yuki thought this, her wand spun rapidly like a saw blade, carving a path through the jungle of tentacles.

"You're thinking that with so many of you against me, not only will you be able to deplete my magic power, but if I make even the slightest mistake, you'll win and be able to stop Mashiro because you have the numerical advantage—is that right?"

Asahi's voice rang out from behind the dark forest.

She was so calm that Yuuki En couldn't detect a trace of panic in her. Her reaction when Seishin almost attacked someone was far more intense than it was now.

Surely this wasn't part of their plan too?

Yuuki Yui was startled. She didn't respond to Asahimi's comment, but silently increased the efficiency of her magic output and quickly moved deeper into the area.

"So what if it is?!" Herika's voice came from the side, full of confidence, as deafening as her thunder.

"Not so great, but it seems like my side has the numerical advantage." Asahimi chuckled lightly, as if mocking the ignorance of the others.

"Huh? You have a lot of people?" Baqi retorted sarcastically, "You don't mean those nuns you trained who are like a suicide squad, or those parasites covered in mud, do you?"

“No, of course not.” Asahimi’s voice was full of joy, even though her body and face were hidden behind the thick tentacles, Yuuki Yuuki felt that she must be smiling.

"I'm talking about a genuine magical girl."

Without a sound, somewhere in Moonsea City, a beam of light shot into the sky and then quickly disappeared, flashing briefly behind the girls' heads.

"What? What happened?" Nishio Reki took a half step back and turned to look in the direction where the pillar of light had disappeared.

“Although the magic is still quite impure, a new kind of magic has appeared.” Koumori raised her voice and answered Nishio Reki’s question loudly.

Immediately afterwards, a second beam of light appeared, displaying her presence from a different direction before quietly disappearing.

“The second one…” Hong Moli’s voice became slightly more serious.

But this is not the end, but the beginning.

Like a ripple spreading outwards, passing over each pebble and reflecting chaotic yet traceable waves, more and more pillars of light began to illuminate from the highest point where the magical girls were located.

Each and every one of them is a magical girl.

Although the magical power emanating from them varies in strength, they are not like the hastily made magical girls like Niijima Azusa who were lured into darkness by the parasite, but genuine magical girls who have experienced real battles.

"When did so many magical girls appear in Moonsea City?" Baqi exclaimed in a somewhat distraught voice.

Asahimi answered readily, her rising tone perfectly expressing her joy: "There have always been so many magical girls in Tsukishima City."

"All the time? Who are you kidding?!" Helica also temporarily retreated from the attack range of the tentacles, feeling the several magical forces approaching her from the side.

coming!

A short, pale yellow stick, accompanied by a gust of wind, hurtled straight toward the back of Helica's head.

Helica spun around, using her arm to deflect the incoming blow, and with lightning speed—no, with lightning speed—kicked the magical girl in the stomach, sending her staggering several steps before regaining her balance.

Helica first sized up the magical girl's face, making sure she didn't recognize her at all, then pointed at her nose and yelled, "Hey, who the hell are you? Are you out of your mind? Why are you hitting me?"

Helica said that because she could tell that the other person was just a magical girl.

That's right, she's just an ordinary magical girl, not corrupted, and not some kind of nun or anything like that, but a living, breathing person, a living magical girl.

The magical girls who arrived were not just the one wielding the short stick; several more figures joined the battle.

Nishio Reki's halberd blocked a spear, Hyakki Senyou's twin swords parried a scimitar, and Mizuno Yu's rain of arrows forced the magical girl holding a burning torch several steps away.

Hong Moli raised the twin saws she had separated from her hands, the saw blades shooting blinding sparks from the earth-colored spiked shield. With a metallic sound that seemed to tear one's eardrums, a slit was cut in the upper part of the spiked shield.

Through the crack, Hong Moli could clearly see the face of the magical girl holding the shield.

"How is this possible! You are..." Even the composed Hong Moli couldn't help but let out a scream, her face turning deathly pale in an instant.

With a swift slash of her twin swords, Hyakki Senyou sliced ​​the magical girl's wand, which was wielding a curved sword, into three pieces. Then, she raised her clogs and kicked away the gray-haired boy who was swinging a baseball bat with both hands, before arriving at Koumori's side.

"Mari! What's wrong!"

“That face…that guy! She…”

"What's wrong with her?!"

"I should have gotten rid of her!"

The battlefield was thrown into chaos once again by the arrival of these magical girls who appeared out of nowhere.

In terms of the power of these magical girls alone, Yuuki Yui felt that most of them were very weak, but their numbers were quite large.

A rough estimate suggests there are around twenty or thirty people.

Baki pulled the trigger of her gun, and the bullet exploded like a firework on the magical girl in a Western-style dress holding a parasol. The magical girl groaned and fell straight down from the sky, her magical costume disintegrating and reverting to her pre-transformation attire.

Ba Qi frowned: "Xiao Yuan? It seems these guys are real people."

"Don't really hurt her." Yuuki Yuuki quickly reminded her, and a tentacle caught the magical girl who had just been holding a parasol from below, picked her up by the leg, and threw the unconscious girl directly into the garbage heap.

If I'm not mistaken, this guy looks like he's wearing a hospital gown.

"I understand! Everyone, listen to me!"

Sakura Hanako's voice pierced through everything and spread across the entire battlefield.

Whether it was those who came with Yuuki Yuki and the others to stop Genken Mashiro and Asahimi, or those reinforcements that Asahimi had somehow brought from somewhere, they were all stunned at the same time. They either remained in a position of mutual struggle or took a few steps back, all looking at Sakura Hanako who was holding up a syringe.

"I know them! Not all of them! But I know them! If I'm not mistaken..."

boom.

A bullet struck an unfamiliar magical girl who was trying to ambush Sakura Hanako, but this magical girl was much stronger than the parasol girl and was able to block the bullet with her assault rifle, although her wand seemed to be unusable.

"Stop explaining! Just tell me the result." Ba Qi waved her hand, holding up the still-smoking gun blade. There was no doubt that the bullet was fired by her.

"They are magical girls who were defeated in Moonsea City!"

As Sakura Hanako was speaking, a magical girl dressed in a tight-fitting outfit, wielding a windmill made of four sharp blades, suddenly jumped out from the shadows below her and slashed at Sakura Hanako's head.

Oops!

In such a chaotic battlefield, amidst such a mix of magic, it's impossible for anyone to notice all the movements around them.

If they were the ones being ambushed, the magical girls might be able to sense it, but expecting their teammates to be aware of their surroundings is asking too much.

Sakura Hanako quickly put down the syringe, intending to use her magic wand to block it.

But it was obvious to everyone that Sakura Hanako's actions were too late.

The magical girl in the bodysuit had a confident smile on her face and cruelly swung her weapon at Sakura Hanako.

Just before the weapon actually touched Sakura Hanako's body, or rather, at the same time, a giant sword that seemed to have flown from nowhere struck the girl precisely in the abdomen, causing her attack to lose its aim. The blow only made a hole in Sakura Hanako's magical armor.

But the magical girl who was hit was not so lucky. She fell rapidly like a shooting star and was pinned to the wall of the Moon Sea Tower by the giant sword.

"I know without you telling me. I don't forget what my own men look like so easily."

The dark-skinned magical girl flapped her wings, staring coldly at the girl in the bodysuit pinned to the wall below.

The girl in the bodysuit pressed her hands against her wounds, but she couldn't pull the giant sword off her body no matter what she did. Gazing at the fallen magical girl high in the sky, she painfully squeezed out a few words through clenched teeth.

"Kuroba...-sama..."
