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

Yuuki Yukino gasped, not only from the pain but also from the tension.

Seeing Yuuki Yukino's current expression, Nishio Reki's attacks suddenly softened.

This is the familiar Xiaoyuan that Nishio Reki is able to perceive from these tiny details that even she herself can't quite explain.

But the Yuuki Yuki that Nishio Reki knew was shouting at him in an even more pained voice.

"Keep going! It's okay!"

Almost instinctively, Nishio Reki obeyed Yuuki Yuuki's command, pouring his vast magical power into Yuuki Yuuki's body.

boom.

The immense pressure slammed Yuuki Enishi directly into the ground.

At this moment, all eyes were focused on Yuuki Yui, watching as the demonic armor, already soaked in blood, slowly stood up from the ground and made an even more exaggerated move.

Yuuki Yukina reached out her hand and plunged it into her chest, following the wounds left on her body by Nishio Reki.

The veins on the back of Yuuki Yukino's hand were bulging, and large beads of sweat rolled down her forehead. Her sharp canine teeth pierced the girl's lips, and blood droplets were already faintly staining her pale lips like lip gloss.

The grinding sound of bones rubbing together was so loud it made your teeth ache, making you wonder if Yuuki Enishi would just fall apart like that.

No one knew what Yuuki Yuki was doing, and no one dared to interfere with her. They could only watch as this girl, who had truly broken through the impossible and brought the entire timeline back to the crossroads of fate, began her final dance.

Yuuki Yui seemed to be holding onto something, which she was slowly and forcefully pulling at, as if she were tearing at her own heart.

But what Yuuki Yuuki grasped was not her own heart, yet for a person, that thing was no less important than their own heart.

It hurts.

Yuuki Yukino thought to herself silently.

The feeling of tearing your own soul apart really hurts.

She had seen it in the memories of Nishio Reki that Yumehara Sumireko had restored: the image of herself tearing her own soul apart before Nishio Reki's desperate cycle of reincarnation began.

At the time, Yuuki Yukino felt her scalp tingle just looking at it, and she never wanted to actually experience that kind of pain in her life.

But what can I do now? I guess I'll just have to grit my teeth and go for it!

Yuuki Yukino fell to her knees with a thud, the soul she was holding tightly in her hand emitting a violent ripple, causing the surrounding girls to retreat involuntarily.

"It hurts so much... It looks so painful. I know the soul all too well. If it were me, I would have fainted by now."

"Yuki Yuuki, that guy is a madman. In my next life, every time I see a scene like this, I will feel that our defeat was not unjust at all."

"Yuki Yukino, this woman... if the Holy Maiden had encountered her instead of Urouge Mashiro, what would the future hold..."

Yuuki Yukino couldn't hear any of that, nor could she listen to it. Apart from the pain of tearing her own soul apart, she could feel nothing and think of nothing anymore.

Enveloped in countless strands of light, she held a vortex tightly in her hand and raised it high above her head.

However, the demonic armor on Yuuki Yui's body was completely shattered, and she reverted to her original attire.

"Haa...haa...haa..." Yuuki Yui gasped for breath, her vision gradually clearing as the pain subsided.

A ray of light fell upon her; it was Sakura Hanako's healing ability that lessened Yuuki Yukino's pain slightly.

Yes, I'm still alive.

It is because I have two souls inside me that I am still able to live.

Magical girls' wands and souls are inherently one, but Yuuki Yukino, who harbors two souls and shares the same wand, is an exception.

But only when another version of myself is using these powers can they be separated together.

Stripping away is not the end.

"Xiao Li! Hurry! Destroy it!"

Yuuki Yui shouted with all her might.

From this angle, if Nishio Reki were to use a strike powerful enough to destroy the soul, Yuuki Yukino would definitely be caught in it.

However, the current Nishio Reki no longer needs to worry about it.

Before she could even make a move, light burst forth from Yuuki Yukino's palm.

The voice that the girls knew so well called out softly, but it didn't come from Yuuki Yukino's own mouth.

"Azathoth".

Yuuki Yukino's body flew backward like a cannonball, rolling several times on the ground, the sharp pebbles tearing her clothes to shreds.

But where Yuuki had just knelt, a figure was already standing there.

The magical outfit that the girls had seen with their own eyes just seconds before, the black magic runes engraved on her lower abdomen, and her pink hair fluttering in the wind.

"Really, really."

The girl narrowed her eyes, revealing her usual cunning, but her gaze towards Yuuki Yukino was filled with undisguised anger.

"Really, that's so true to me."

Chapter 315 A Broken Self, A Broken Story.

When that figure appeared in front of the girls, most of them had only two thoughts.

Is that really the case?!

And, as expected.

Without a doubt, it was a body created by the soul using magic, just like Hanzawa Kuriko and Yumehara Sumireko.

The body created by magic must look exactly like the owner of that soul; it is the soul's most authentic appearance. Otherwise, it would be too easy to use a body created by a soul to imitate other people's crimes.

That's why the girls felt something was off about that person's appearance.

It was Yuuki Yuuki's face, without a doubt. Even the demonic armor on her body and the black demonic patterns engraved on her skin were exactly the same as Yuuki Yuuki's.

The one who had just rolled around several times and was still bleeding was probably Yuuki Yukino herself.

So who exactly is that guy?

"Really, that's so true to me."

The pink-haired girl, who resembled Yuuki Yukino, narrowed her eyes as she looked at Yuuki Yukino herself, who had rolled to the side and was being supported by the ethereal Hanzawa Kuriko who had suddenly appeared beside her.

The pink-haired girl's voice wasn't loud, but her words caused a huge uproar among the girls.

What she said was as if she were admitting that she and Yuuki Yuuki were originally one.

"It's you!"

Nishio Reki's eyes immediately turned cold, but her attack came faster than her words.

"Long time no see, Reki." The pink-haired girl turned her head happily and looked at Reki's face, which was twisted with anger, without any pressure.

Ding.

Like the sound of metal clashing, it echoed in everyone's ears. Nishio Reki's attack stopped just centimeters in front of the pink-haired girl. Something at the tip of the gun blocked Nishio Reki's powerful blow.

Just as Nishio Reki paused, a flash of light appeared between the cracks in the floor tiles below, and several magic wands shot out.

Nishio Reki twisted his body with his spear, letting the shot wand glide past his waist, but he still inevitably got a scratch on a piece of fabric on the outside of his thigh, and a bit of bright red seeped out from the torn corner of his clothes.

But Nishio Reki reacted as quickly as ever, unleashing a burst of magic that scattered the wand flying toward him, then took a few steps back and came to Yuuki Yuuki's side.

Before this, even if others had reservations about this girl who had the appearance of Yuuki Yuki, after seeing the way and angle at which the girl suddenly attacked, that possibility had almost become a fact.

Even though it was undoubtedly Yog-Sothoth's ability that blocked Nishio Reki's attack, the way it was used by Yuuki Yuki was completely different from how it was used by Urobuchi Mashiro.

And that attack on Nishio Reki just now was undoubtedly Yuuki Yukino's style.

If someone can use Yuuki Yuki's abilities, has the same face as Yuuki Yuki, and has the exact same fighting style as Yuuki Yuki, then that person must be Yuuki Yuki.

If the other party is Yuuki Yukino, then who was the person she knocked away?

The pink-haired girl didn't rush to attack the girls again, and the girls' gazes all fell on the badly injured Yuuki Yuki in Hanzawa Kuriko's arms.

Yuuki Yuuki staggered a few steps, and with Hanzawa Kuriko's help, slowly stood up.

"I knew it was you."

It seems these two people know each other?

After hearing what Yuuki Yukino said, the girls were even more confused.

The pink-haired girl didn't rush to attack. Instead, she put her hands behind her back, and a dark purple shadow lurked beneath her, like a moving pool of water.

The pink-haired girl smiled as she looked at Yuuki Yuki on the opposite side, but the anger between her brows was particularly obvious.

"What happened, Yuuki?" Inuyama Tomoe, who was on the verge of death due to overuse of her abilities, dragged her exhausted body to Yuuki's side, supported by Koumari and Hyakki Senyu on either side.

"Ah, Baki. My dear Baki." The pink-haired girl opened her arms, which were behind her back, as if to give Baki a hug.

Baqi could also sense that the other person must be Yuuki Yukino, but she was not the same Yuuki Yukino she knew.

At least, she didn't feel any resistance to the embrace from the bottom of her heart, but she did feel resistance to the pink-haired girl who gave her the hug.

The pink-haired girl slowly lowered her arms: "Aren't you curious? Anyway, there's still plenty of time, so let me tell you about myself."

……

When Yuuki Yukino regained consciousness for the first time, she found herself still in her own home, lying quietly in her own home before anything had even begun.

Did he succeed in asking Xiao Li to do something?

That's right, it was a success! He really did take Xiao Li back to the past and truly had the chance to change everything again.

Then, the opportunity slipped through their fingers. Yuuki Yukino, a fallen magical girl from this world who had heard her own memories, was defeated by the magical girls before she could make friends.

However, it has not been a complete failure yet; his broken soul can still support this body.

However, rather than risk continuing, it would be better to let Nishio Reki take him to the next cycle of reincarnation.

When Yuuki Yuki's consciousness returned for the eighteenth time, Miyashita Mia was finally defeated. Taking this step was indeed very difficult, but Nishio Reki and his other self had already grasped the method.

But the problem isn't there; the problem is what to do next.

As an organization of the Black Feather Reincarnation, which is corrupted by dark magic, it would be difficult for one person to fight against it alone without any allies.

As expected, I failed again in terms of timing.

However, he could rely on Nyarlathotep's power to use her broken soul to mend his own equally broken soul.

Oh well, I'll have to come back another time.
