Regarding the fact that my best friend is a magical girl

wrong.

Shipborne artillery also requires personnel to fire and transport shells.

As if confirming my guess, hundreds of mechanical arms poured out of the cabin, forming a defensive line around the mechanical witch, each holding a variety of weapons, all of which were derived from Betelgeuse's magic and were more powerful than the conventional weapons that served as the prototype.

It gives me goosebumps.

Miluno smacked her lips.

"Tsk, there are still so many. I was thinking that I could easily deal with her by knocking off her hand."

Ultimately, with so many robotic arms, what's the point of playing hunting games?

In terms of direct combat ability, even Miss Sirius might not be a match for her...

"That's a witch after all, she's definitely not at the level of an ordinary monster or magical girl..."

Moreover, she was originally a legend among magical girls, and after becoming a witch, her strength surpassed that of the Samehime witch she had encountered before.

Then, the robotic arms opened fire.

I raised my protective shield to block the attack, but it was quickly shattered by the exaggerated suppressive firepower. I couldn't even hold on for a second. There were no decent covers on the open mudflats on the north bank. In the end, the UI-31 picked me up by the waist and ran wildly towards the forest.

As long as we get away from the coast and go to the other side of the mountain, we can avoid the shelling, but how do we deal with this number of robotic arms?

As long as the magic power is not exhausted, that mechanical witch can continuously construct these mechanical arms. That's too much of a cheat!

Miluno caught up with them.

"Liu, could you capture her and use the Kraken XIII pseudo-factor?"

Her voice sounded strange; it must have been that she deliberately slowed down her speech during the accelerated time, which is why it sounded that way.

"Ow!"

ui-31 responded and then tossed me to Miluno to hold.

Then, the plant-shaped gauntlet on his right hand changed, transforming into a different stone gauntlet in a burst of light. Purple glowing runes surrounded the gauntlet, and a hemispherical crystal was embedded in the palm, making it look very...magical?

Then, he pointed his palm at the mechanical witch that was clearly visible above the warship.

shake hands……

Spread out...

There is a woman's panties in the palm of my hand.

We turned and continued running away, and Milno couldn't help but complain, "Where did you steal this thing from? Mine is still here... Is it Seruno?"

"It wasn't me, it must be over there. Miss Witch looks even angrier."

Being held allowed me to observe the situation behind me; the mechanical witch even summoned a mechanical arm to block her in front of her.

"Huh? It's over there? Do robots need to wear these?!"

A new salvo from the ship's guns didn't instantly kill us; the shells flew overhead and landed in front of us... but they weren't shells, they were robotic arms.

The fact that she can use cannons to transport "soldiers" shows that this mechanical witch is indeed a one-woman army.

"Ow!"

The ui-31 rushed forward, choosing to use its armor as a human shield for me and Milno. Apart from the black-material weapon, other weapons could hardly hurt it, but the bullets fired at it also contained this material. I could only continuously put a protective shield on it, but it would be shattered very quickly, so it was extremely effective.

There's no other way.

Just as we were about to rush into the rainforest, Milno handed me over to UI-31 again.

"Protect Seruno, I'm going to take care of that guy."

Seeing her turn around, I quickly said, "Wait, you don't have any way to get close to her, do you?"

Unlike the battle against Sirius, that sailing warship was far from the coastline. Even if one could jump from the mountaintop to it, the mechanical witch would be surrounded by sizing-up mechanical arms as guards.

She slashed down a mechanical arm that had burst out of the rainforest and easily disarmed it of the pistol it was holding.

bang bang-

She used the stolen gun to smash the other mechanical arm.

"The means to get close, isn't that what we have now?"

Chapter 50 One-Click Restart

(Albinocotyledon)

Running away has never been my style.

Watching the UI-31 and Seruno enter the rainforest, I turned and launched a surprise attack on the warship.

Thirty-two times.

It is close to Mach 1.5.

This is the limit that Seruno's protective membrane, which has been soaked with all her magic, can withstand.

With these robotic arms, I have a way to deal with the Hunter Witch.

The countless mechanical arms in the sky became stepping stones with their own equipment in my eyes. Their weapons were my weapons, and they themselves were my stepping stones. Even if the witch flew higher than the mast, as long as there were mechanical arms hovering around me, I was confident that I could shoot her down.

Don't underestimate people!

Stepping on the mechanical arm would cause me to sink, but that was enough time for me to jump over one. I slashed through the flying bullets as I leaped toward the sky above the coast. It was easier than I had imagined. By the time I had stepped over a dozen mechanical arms, the witch had barely reacted and was manipulating the mechanical arms to turn the gun at a ridiculously slow pace.

"too slow."

She couldn't keep up with me; the speed difference couldn't be bridged by any tactics or skills.

Use stolen guns, crossbows, or throwing weapons such as daggers and short swords to fight the hunter witch.

Although these attacks slow down after they leave my hand, and I can't guarantee the accuracy of my shots, they always manage to damage other mechanical arms or interfere with the witch's judgment.

Unfortunately, the hunter witch's judgment was very clear.

To stop me from getting any closer, they started to widen the distance between their hands, which was a very wise decision.

But I was too slow; I had already circled around behind her unharmed.

"Successful!"

I guess I'm still better suited to going it alone... No, Seruno also played a part in my success.

She naturally wanted to turn around, but I wasn't going to give her any time. I raised my leg and side-kicked the witch in the lower back. The heavy horseshoes on the soles of my boots were extremely destructive after the acceleration. The mechanical hand supporting her back was crushed, and she crashed into the sailing warship at an extremely high speed.

But in the time it took her to fall, I was still faster!

In order to completely incapacitate her...

mahou-shoujokick！！

With her foot planted on the witch's lower back, she endured a 32-fold acceleration, piercing through the first and second decks, and crashing into the bottom of the warship, where she lay sprawled on the metal floor, completely motionless.

We won, but I feel like Ms. Spica will scold us.

Since it's a robot, it's not considered dead as long as its head isn't injured, right?

"Legendary magical girl? Witch? Looks like I'm still the stronger one."

Defeating a strong enemy always makes one feel proud, just as Sirius said, I do have a competitive spirit that I am not even aware of.

"Magical girls... must be eliminated..."

It could speak, and surprisingly, it uttered meaningful words.

"Hey, weren't you a magical girl yourself?"

She was still conscious and began to mobilize robotic arms to flood the warship.

This place is too cramped, which would be disadvantageous for me in a real fight. Once the bulkhead is breached, the floodwaters would make it difficult for me to move at high speed.

Even if you can't move, as long as your mind is still working, you can continue to command those robotic arms.

But I can't twist her head off, and she doesn't have any switches on her body... No, wait, maybe she does.

I turned her over, her body weighing over 200 pounds, and lifted her stiff, metallic pleated skirt. There was a button in "that part" under the skirt, with a common power symbol printed on it, and it was emitting a faint red light.

Is the eccentric developer on the other side suffering from some serious illness?

This is why robots also wear panties.

"..."

I poke.

Pressing the power button, the Hunter Witch lost her last bit of power and lay limp on the ground like scrap metal. The mechanical arm that had been trying to crawl through the hole also lost control and floated in the air, no longer moving.

This is the end?

I was going to carry her out of the cabin, but after thinking about it, I decided to take out her panties first... the ones I stole from the UI-31's telekinesis... and put them on this robot lady who was going commando.

Just as the panties were pulled up to her thighs, a sound came from above her head.

"Hey, Miluno-chan~ What are you doing?"

"..."

Sirius.

Her arrival was so coincidental that it made people suspect she did it on purpose.

------

Awkward scene dividing line

------

With the assistance of drones sent by the Hawaii branch, the fire on Naboo Island has been extinguished. The once magnificent mansion has been reduced to a smoke-filled ruin, a sight that is anything but funny.

After the fire was extinguished, the drones worked together to carry away the heavily wounded hunter witch.

The maids rested on the beach with the salvaged data, and ui-31 deactivated its werewolf armor and reverted to its original form.

He was covered in bruises, clearly having been badly beaten by the hunter witch.

"Miluno, are you sure she's still alive?"

"It's just turned off."
