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

They needed Coco's identity to get in before, and they weren't able to break in directly afterward.

This indicates that the magical kingdom is currently safe.

Once again, she opened up space, letting the roaring magic rush into the spatial turbulence, and An Shiyu took a deep breath.

"I'll go ask her first... Senior Mujin, you stay here too."

"What nonsense are you talking about? How could we let you go on an adventure alone? Have you forgotten? Back in the Heart Remnant, we didn't need you, and we dared to face Shion head-on..."

"The current Ziyuan probably won't show any mercy, especially to a remnant soul like you. Don't you still have many things you want to do, Senior Mujin?"

"We have no regrets!"

An Shiyu hugged the egg in front of her and smiled with some relief, "That's good."

"we……"

Before she could finish speaking, Mu Jin's voice disappeared completely.

An Shiyu looked at the egg in her hand, "In this way, senior will have his own body. Although it will be a little strange, as long as he becomes stronger, he can turn back into human form and become like Hibiscus again."

From the moment she entered the magical kingdom, An Shiyu had been searching for a way to revive Senior Mu Jin.

Although resurrecting a sacred beast might be a bit unusual, I originally wanted to discuss it slowly with Senior Mujin.

But now that Shion is acting so strangely, she can't care about anything else.

After putting down the egg, An Shiyu stood up and said, "I'll go back and check on things first. Could you please look after Senior Mu Jin?"

Yinlian immediately stood up as well, "I'll go with you."

"No."

"Why not? I'm the captain. Know your place, An Shiyu. You have to listen to me!"

Coco took two steps forward, wanting to catch up with the two, "I'll go with you too..."

Before she could finish speaking, Yinlian and An Shiyu vanished from her sight with a "snap".

In the vast Wolf Kingdom living room, only she, her mother's incubator, and the egg left behind by An Shiyu, which contained the egg of Senior Mu Jin, remained.

Coco paused for a moment, then instinctively ran outside, wanting to find her two friends.

She soon discovered that in the footage above, Yinlian and An Shiyu had both been sent down and successfully returned to Huaxi.

Slightly relieved, Coco, though still somewhat puzzled, immediately got up and prepared to leave.

"cocoa."

However, her mother's voice came from behind.

"Oh dear, Coco, where are you? Mom is asleep. Mom shouldn't have drunk so much, and I shouldn't have let you drink. Mom was wrong, Coco, come back and keep Mom company..."

Coco paused for a moment when her mother's voice came from inside the house.

The space above the magical kingdom continued to crack, and magical power surged in like a vast ocean.

She turned around and hugged the egg that Senior Mu Jin had given her. "I really want to stay with you all forever, but I can't, Mom. I have things to do and I have to go."

"But, are you really willing to let your mother stay here and worry about you? What parent would feel at ease letting their child do dangerous things? Coco, we finally get to see each other, why can't you understand how I feel? Can't you stay by my side and not run around?"

These are the words her mother always said to her when she was little.

Once Coco says those words, she will compromise on whatever she wants to do.

Be a good girl and go back to your mother's side.

As a child, as a daughter.

My mother's slightly tipsy demeanor was no different from how I remembered her.

She walked over and gently took Coco's hand. "Don't go, okay, Coco?"

Just as she was about to be pulled back, Coco suddenly grabbed her own arm.

She then shook off her mother's hand, stepped back, and left the hall.

The mother then regained some composure, and then looked dejected. "Sure enough, it's been too long. Even if you say you miss me, you've probably been annoyed by me for a long time, haven't you..."

"No, Mom."

Coco sniffed as she withdrew her hand, took another step back, and said softly, "It's not like that, Mom. My brother said that we'll have to separate sooner or later. Sooner or later, we won't be able to compromise for our parents. Sooner or later, the things we want to do will be more important than our parents' worries and dissatisfaction. Sooner or later... we won't be able to be good kids anymore."

Don't always cry and whine.

Don't always be indecisive.

Don't always expect others to make decisions for you.

Don't always rely on others as your parents.

At last.

Don't always treat your parents the way you did when you were a child.

because……

“Really, Coco has grown up.”

The mother said this as if she were sighing with emotion.

They were saying things I'd never heard before, and doing things that Coco would never have done before.

The child is the most familiar, yet also the most unfamiliar.

Growing up is always both heartwarming and painful.

"You must have suffered a lot, right? My Coco, how much bullying she endured while we were away. You should tell your brother, rely on him more, he won't abandon you."

hope so.

Coco lowered her head and murmured:

"Because we won't always be little kids, Mom."

I will be separated from my parents, and I will be separated from my older brother. Sooner or later, I will be all alone.

To become someone who, even alone, can make the right decisions and do what they want to do.

That's what my brother said, and that's what he's always demanded of himself.

The enormous Wolf Kingdom palace echoed in the wind, carrying a solemn and desolate feeling.

After the Wolf Kingdom's queen and many of its ministers were killed by Coco, who was controlled by Shion, the entire Wolf Kingdom's palace became as quiet as a graveyard.

Coco raised her head again and looked up at Ms. Shion.

"I'm leaving now, Mom. Get some rest. I'll definitely come back to see you when you wake up from your nap."

As Coco was about to leave, she paused briefly and turned back to look at her mother, who was gazing at her tenderly.

Finally, she stopped stopping her mother and just waved her hand gently, saying, "Be careful on the road, Coco."

"I love you, Mom."

Coco whispered those four words very quickly, then turned and flew away as if fleeing, "See you tomorrow!"

There are some things that you always feel shy to say to someone's face.

Even when you grow up, it's hard to avoid.

Next time, I'll definitely say it properly next time.

In front of his mother.

Having composed herself, Coco flew through the center of the magical kingdom straight toward the exit.

All the incubators and magical girls from the Bear, Wolf, and Dog Kingdoms glanced at Coco, and none of them dared to stop her.

Coco found it a little strange that no one was stopping her, but since it was a good thing for her, she didn't think too much about it and just sped up and flew straight down.

We absolutely must stop Shion-sensei...

But why?

Although she was anxious and uneasy, Coco couldn't help but have doubts in her heart.

Why did Shion-sensei suddenly go berserk?

No one can control Shion-sensei; not even the Beast of the End can corrupt her spirit.

How could things have turned out like this after just one trip to the magical kingdom?

What exactly happened? What did the teacher know? We absolutely have to find out from the teacher...

Are you curious? What exactly is she trying to do? Why did things turn out this way?

Just as Coco was about to rush down from the magical kingdom, a melodious voice suddenly rang in her ears.

Coco then felt dizzy and disoriented.

The surrounding scenery changed instantly.

A colossal World Tree appeared before her, its countless branches and vines, each bearing a world within it, swaying in her pupils, as if time itself had etched its marks upon the universe.

Countless leaves wither and are reborn.

But only one withered leaf remained hanging on the branch, stubbornly refusing to fall.

And now, this withered leaf has been hanging on the branch for who knows how long.

Finally, it began to crumble little by little, falling towards the bottom of the World Tree.

Can you guess which world this leaf represents?

Coco turned her head sharply and saw a girl with chains on her hands and wearing a long black dress, smiling at her.

When she tried to back away, the other person easily grabbed her left wrist.

So, instinctively, Coco swung her sword backhand and slashed sharply at the magical girl's neck!

The blade, imbued with magical power, shattered on the spot!

"Wow."

The girl tilted her head. "You guys really are..."

She paused, but didn't say the rest of her sentence. Instead, she said, "Don't waste your energy. Even your most admired teacher, Shion, couldn't kill me, or rather, she can't kill me now, so it's even less likely for you."
