Starting with magical girls, I'll reign supreme for eternity.

The Disaster Management Bureau's temporary villa is located at sea, even in the very center, and is relatively close to the remains of the heart image.

When the Azure Phoenix and the Iris flew over, they thought the Red Cotton had led them astray, since there was nothing to be seen in the vast sea.

It wasn't until Hongmian removed the magical disguise that she discovered the luxurious base was right in the middle of the sea.

The villa is very large with many bedrooms. Everyone can freely choose their favorite room, or if they don't like a particular room, they can have one customized by a magical girl.

Several of the magical girls who had returned earlier were still in the main living room talking to others about how terrifying their opponent was—those who had gone out to provide support were all veteran magical girls.

Many magical girls, though quite strong, remained at the base. They were all gathered around their senior magical girl who had just returned, listening obediently as she described the terrifying humanoid monster.

When they heard that Senior Red Cotton would be blasted away and his transformation would be canceled, everyone gasped in surprise.

However, upon hearing that they had finally repelled the terrifying humanoid monster, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Some cheered, while others became worried.

"I couldn't even block it once, it's amazing that the iris could block two or even more of its attacks, is this the strongest magical girl...?"

"Wow, that's scary. I definitely can't beat them. What if I encounter them later?"

"Don't worry, I'll be there to protect you!"

"No, I want to stay with Senior Hongmian..."

"How dare you betray me! Take this!"

Several magical girls were playing around in the hall, but when Hongmian appeared, they immediately quieted down and greeted her with flushed faces.

Of course, Iris is quite popular in the Disaster Management Bureau. Many of her junior magical girls even came to give her small gifts, such as a monocle with a round gold rim, a music box that was about to break, a scented leaf that could amplify magic power for a short while, and a very antique-looking blue sword guard, etc., which were piled up and could not be carried.

Qingluan was a little envious, but unfortunately she wasn't very popular at headquarters. Even though people would greet her, they weren't familiar with her and wouldn't give her any gifts.

Despite her flamboyant personality, Iris is genuinely caring towards her juniors and quite generous with her money...

Although they were there to deal with the remnants of the mind, the atmosphere in the entire villa was quite relaxed and pleasant. After all, the magical girls were all good kids, and they usually got along very well when they were together.

They just occasionally chatter and make a bit of a racket.

It took Qingluan quite a while to pull Iris out from among the younger ones.

Many people are asking Iris about the magical girl realm.

After all, it was Iris who brought up the idea of ​​the Disaster Management Bureau changing the way magical girls are called. The younger children were very curious and excited, and they all wanted to ask Iris what level they were.

The younger generation loved to ask questions, and Iris also liked to show off, so they ended up wasting a lot of time together.

It wasn't until Qingluan dragged her up to the second floor that things calmed down.

Having enjoyed being the center of attention for a while, Iris, after handing Qingluan two gifts, suddenly asked:

"This villa, could it just disappear in the middle of the night while I'm sleeping?"

Walking up the stairs, looking at the calm sea below the beautiful stained glass, Iris asked, "What if the Miracle Seed isn't with us? We'd drown."

Qingluan, who was looking at the gifts, couldn't help but cover her head. Hongmian next to her chuckled, "Don't worry, I'll definitely be the first to pull you out when that time comes."

"Mainly because looking down at the seawater makes it hard for me to sleep; I'm most afraid of the seabed..."

Hongmian then gently tapped the wall of the villa. "Don't worry, the magic solidification here is very safe. Even the houses you usually live in aren't this stable. Every night, there are magical girls who specifically observe the mental image remnants, so there's no chance of you actually falling down."

"What if..."

Qingluan immediately pulled her friend away, "Can you please stop asking these unnecessary questions?"

Hongmian waved her hand, "It's okay."

After saying that, she led the two of them to a large house. "However, there have been a lot of magical girls coming recently, so there aren't enough rooms. You two will have to squeeze in for now."

Qingluan looked at the bedroom, which was almost the same size as her living room at home, and it had two extra-large single beds.

If this is considered cramped, then what was that makeshift bedroom in Jiang Mingshi back then...?

After placing the bag and other items on the bed, Qingluan sat on the edge of the bed and could see the huge remnants of the heart-shaped image across the window.

It was magnificent and strange, like the aurora borealis. Yet, faintly, one could see something living behind the aurora, running around and crashing against the dazzling edges.

You can even hear screams coming from within...

"Azure Phoenix".

Hongmian called softly from the side, and Qingluan suddenly woke up, "Ah, sorry, I suddenly spaced out."

"It's nothing. That's how mental images are. Just be careful not to stare at them for too long, or you'll get distracted."

Iris immediately pounced on the bed, shouting, "Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on her!"

"You are the one I need to pay the most attention to."

"Oh……"

Hongmian looked at the two girls and sighed, "You two should rest for a while. We can talk about the rest tomorrow. I'm going to check on the others."

"Senior Hongmian, you should take a rest."

"Ah."

After leaving Iris and Blue Phoenix's bedroom, Red Cotton went to look around at other places.

After checking all the magical girls who had fought against Si Mo Tu and been knocked away, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, thankfully, the magical girls who provided support earlier are all fine.

Although he was knocked away by Si Mo Tu, it only deactivated his transformation. The Miracle Seed was fine, and he was not injured.

I couldn't help but wonder, was it intentional?

The dragon form was incredibly fast, so fast that without the iris's gravity suppression, it would be impossible to even catch a glimpse of it.

If it wanted to, it could deliver a fatal blow after the magical girl reverts to her original form, or steal the Miracle Seed.

But the other party did nothing; they simply knocked the magical girl away.

The members of the Witch's Guild couldn't possibly have any good intentions; perhaps they were simply indifferent.

With a sigh, Hongmian contacted Jincha via video call first.

Upon seeing Senior Jin Cha, Hong Mian, who had always appeared calm and composed, immediately broke down in tears, saying aggrievedly, "Jin Cha, you have no idea what happened to me today! A super troublesome being suddenly appeared at the Witch Association, and I was blasted away, my transformation was undone, and I almost thought I was going to die there. It scared me to death..."

Ultimately, even among the other magical girls' seniors, Hongmian is not very old. After encountering such a dangerous enemy and getting beaten up today, she naturally wants to find someone to complain to.

Jin Cha comforted her while listening to her recount the story of Si Mo Tu, and her expression became serious.

"She is indeed a very dangerous opponent. I knew the Witch Council must have done something in the dark. It's a pity that those old fogies in the council are unwilling to waste too many resources on the Witch Council."

Hongmian said worriedly, "Once we enter the remnants of the mind, we'll all be scattered, and it will be very difficult to deal with Si Motu. You need to think of a way, otherwise it will be too dangerous."

"It's okay, don't worry."

Jin Cha smiled slightly:

"I've already asked someone to help."

"Who is it? The people I can think of who can deal with Si Motu seem to be either retired or unable to come."

"Qingyun Sect, Ziyuan."

……

Witches' Coven, basement.

"Lord Si Motu, what do you think we should do next?"

"Lord Si Motu, you must come to South China at least once."

"Lord Simotu, would you like some bed warmer?"

"Lord Sima Tu..."

Listening to the calls that rose and fell, Xilan felt a sense of comfort and relaxation.

Because of her mediocre abilities, she is actually a marginal figure among the complete witches of the Witch Guild, just like the twins.

The Twins' ability to copy the power of magical girls is completely unreliable when fighting a Perfect Witch—she cannot copy the Perfect Witch's abilities.

The result was that he basically suffered defeats in the civil war.

Xilan was even worse off, because she could only fuse with ordinary objects.

She needs to use items containing either corrupted or pure magic for a long time to fuse with them, and even then, the enhancement to the weapon is not significant. In fact, if the item is destroyed, she is easily injured...

It's an excellent ability for playing hide-and-seek, and it's also very convenient for escaping.

But in a direct confrontation, the strongest weapon she can usually use is a large truck.

The good news is that because of the fusion with the Perfect Witch, even everyday items can harm the Perfect Witch and the Magical Girl.

The bad news is that there aren't many fully-fledged witches and magical girls left who could be hit by a large truck.

The situation with firearms can only be described as tragic.

The vast majority are under the control of the Disaster Management Bureau. Stealing a gun is easy, but escaping the magical girls' pursuit afterward is a major problem.

It's not that the Witch Association is unacceptable, but the internal channels are too expensive, and Xilan's abilities are not very effective, resulting in low contribution points—she can't defeat most magical girls.

Low contribution points lead to an inability to purchase firearms, and the lack of firearms leads to low contribution points, creating a vicious cycle.

Although he later went bankrupt and starved for a month to buy a handgun, he discovered that bullets also cost money...

I ran out of bullets after only a few days, and I couldn't bear to buy more, so I just put them in a safe to collect dust.

Later, I heard that a complete witch named Chi Lian automatically picked up two complete witch's lament seeds in South China—at that time, the Disaster Management Bureau was carrying out a top-secret operation to wipe out witch societies in that area, and the two largest witch society bases had already been destroyed.

The red-haired girl secretly sneaked into the valley and dam where the base ruins had just been cleared, and surprisingly found two seeds of complete witches. She then successfully escaped from the encirclement of magical girls.

After that, they conquered half a city in East China with those two seeds, a legendary feat that was still talked about at the Witch's Gathering not long ago.

When I heard it again, it had already become a legend that was speedrun in three hours.

It can only be said that there are no living legends of witches.

But at least before Chi Lian was speedrun, west Lan was genuinely encouraged. She thought to herself, "Everyone here is a complete witch. If she can find treasure, so can I." So she took out her dusty pistol and excitedly wandered around the city every day.

Let's see if we can get some goods out too.

After wandering around for more than half a year, Xilan finally realized that there is no city in the world that would scatter guns and bullets in every corner.

No police station would be stupid enough to leave bullets lying around waiting for a passing Perfect Witch to pick them up.

That day, a torrential rainstorm hit the city.
