Regarding the fact that my best friend is a magical girl

"You are a god, don't act so impulsively."

"Then why don't you try harder to surpass me and replace me?"

I looked at the TV screen...

The exploration team that was excavating began to withdraw from the tunnel.

Although it didn't fall directly due to soil collapse, the moon's fragile soil structure became equally unstable under such an impact, and secondary disasters could occur at any time.

But we can't just leave that campsite that fell there unattended...

"Let me and Seruno go down."

The black rabbit said, "Even if secondary disasters occur, we have a way to escape."

Playing the hero in a live stream...

Ultimately, this so-called disaster was a plot deliberately arranged by Michelle to give her a better performance.

"Wow? What is Mom doing? She could have just gone downstairs by herself!"

Michelle complained about the black rabbit's reaction, indicating that they didn't keep in constant contact.

"In the public's perception, my current magic is inherited from Sirius's light magic, which is not suitable for rescue operations. In comparison, Seruno's bubble magic is more suitable."

"That's hard to say. Light is always needed."

As I was saying this, Milno picked up Seruno and jumped off the collapsing platform. Night Owl hesitated for a moment, then flew down after her.

The fall was deeper than expected.

However, the moon's gravity is only one-sixth that of Earth, so the damage from the fall wasn't as great as one might imagine. But it was pitch black and you couldn't see anything clearly.

The halo above my head, like a faint nightlight, dimly illuminated the surroundings...

"It's so dark."

Upon hearing Seruno's words, the black rabbit replied, "Wait a moment."

The new world is virtual, so if Michelle is willing, another version of me can also use the light magic of the Sirius Crystal.

She increased the brightness of the halo above her head, making it larger and expanding it into the surrounding space, revealing a hollow of broken rock.

"Miss Sirius, we've found the camp where we crashed!"

Seruno said, running towards the camp buried under rubble.

Even the tents at the front-line camp, though not far away and looking like "tents," are actually structures with airlocks...

The walls are cracked, and the internal air pressure is leaking. If the people inside were not wearing spacesuits when the collapse occurred, the low temperature and vacuum environment would quickly kill them.

"They're actually using human lives for a publicity stunt?"

"Hum~"

I frowned and looked at Michelle, but she just smiled and didn't even bother to argue back, nor did she even look at me...

"Serno!"

When the black rabbit called out like that, Seruno understood what she meant.

"I know!"

The magic bubble expanded above her head and was then thrown towards the deflated camp tent, forming a protective membrane that enveloped the entire camp and balanced the internal environment.

"What is Mom doing? It's not right for Aunt to stand out so much!"

As Seruno's live stream gained popularity, Michelle became somewhat anxious.

"In that situation, the only way to fit the character design is through lighting, right?"

As soon as I said that, the little girl placed her black king on the chessboard.

She then snapped her fingers.

Seruno's live stream was thus disrupted... the feed was interrupted.

Tsk, how come there are still people who unplug the internet cable when they can't win a fight these days?

Chapter 440 Escape

(Miluno)

The all-knowing Michelle didn't realize that the reason Seruno's live stream was more popular was not because her performance was better, or because she was more popular.

In Black Rabbit's live stream, you can only watch Black Rabbit. Although she has a 360° magic camera that doesn't hinder her movements, the lenses only focus on "Miluno," and everything else becomes just background.

Normally, this unique skill would definitely be more popular with the audience and Lu Shiping and her ilk.

However, in the face of such a sudden situation, the Night Owl's camera allows the audience to understand the situation on the spot more intuitively, which becomes an advantage for us.

Michelle didn't think from the perspective of an ordinary person; such a simple truth fell into her blind spot.

Faced with this situation, the impatient girl impulsively chose to unplug the network cable.

"Hey, isn't this a bit too unsightly?"

"I've said it before! I won't consider your opinions. This has never been a fair contest. I'll stop at nothing to achieve my plan!"

Seeing her smug look, I didn't respond to her.

"But if you cut off the live stream, how am I supposed to know what happened over there?"

"That's easy~"

Michelle clapped her hands twice, and the main hall turned into shattered particles of light, gradually transforming into the scene inside the tunnel. However, this was not a teleportation; it was merely a projection of the situation on Seruno's side onto the area around the cage.

Several magical girls, not wearing protective suits, were carried out of the tent by Miluno. Their fates were unknown, and their faces were bluish-purple, stiff, and frosty.

"Hey, is someone dead?"

Michelle simply shrugged and said nonchalantly, "Magical girls don't die that easily."

Even if they don't die, the suffering they endure is unimaginable.

"I cannot condone your actions..."

"I didn't want to hurt them either, but you forced me to do this."

I will certainly not accept this excuse of shifting responsibility.

"Which cycle is this new world in?"

When I suddenly asked that question, Michelle was taken aback for a moment.

"Oh my? As expected of my aunt, you actually noticed?"

"That black rabbit's mental state... How long has she been in reality? We're clearly the same person, yet she's become completely different from me. We can't understand each other, and I don't know what she went through to become so haggard..."

The black rabbit's eyes were lifeless.

That was the look in the eyes of someone who had endured countless hardships but saw no hope whatsoever. Just being in reality for half a month wouldn't have been enough to torment me like that; after all, the second room had internet access and everything I needed…

"Hmm, this is already the thirteenth new world!"

"How many years has that guy been the gravedigger next to my hibernation pod?"

"For over forty years, because we couldn't find the answer."

Michelle's smile gradually froze.

"The theory of light and darkness balance sounds like an ideal solution to the capacity limit, but it is difficult to control in practice... The human heart is uncontrollable. Even gods cannot interfere with an individual's thoughts, after all, that is the source of 'emotions'."

Human emotions are the "nutrients" for higher-dimensional existence, and the world is nothing more than an "organ".

Whenever I think of this truth, I only feel powerless and insignificant...

"Give up after only thirteen failures?"

"talent?"

You could hear the dissatisfaction in Michelle's tone.

"Aldebaran... also known as the Great Brain you once knew, she stood alone in the darkness where there was nothing for thousands of years, until she discovered Earth and felt alive again."

"It's different. Before absorbing Aldebaran, that great brain didn't have emotions. Since it didn't understand emotions, it naturally wouldn't be frustrated. But I was taught these things by my parents from birth..."

Is love a poison?

Below the cage, the black rabbit was using teleportation magic to send the magical girl from the camp to the survey center for treatment...

Hopefully, this won't leave any lasting negative effects.

I continued, "If that's the case, don't you have any fear of death? Black Rabbit showed me her memories, and the agent expressed fear before disappearing. Didn't that convey that to you?"

"How scary! Even Michelle, who shouldn't exist, has the thought that she doesn't want to disappear!"

She rarely tells me the truth.

"But Michelle loves her mom and dad too, so she was able to overcome her fear!"

"Don't make something as cowardly as suicide sound so noble and righteous."

Suicide changes nothing.

Suicide is just an escape from responsibility.

------

Refocus your attention on Seruno's adventure.

"It's not over yet."

After sending all the wounded rescued from the camp to the reconnaissance center, Black Rabbit continued, "There are also some teams that went out to conduct reconnaissance operations, some of whom haven't been teleported back."

"It won't collapse again, will it?" Seruno asked.

"I don't know, but your magic needs to be available at all times."

A vast number of radiant spells darted through the tunnels, carrying on Miluno's will and searching every underground path.

"This way."

Finding any survey team members who haven't left and then using teleportation to bring them back to the survey center is what Seruno and her team are currently doing.

Black Rabbit's live stream is still ongoing.
