I have no regrets about my 2D world!

However, after the explanation, the two looked at her with even more strange eyes.

"It's not what you think!" Xiaoyuan yelled with a blushing face. "Actually...actually, I'm just working for Shiro now."

Seeing Xiaoyuan's expression, the few people did not believe what Xiaoyuan said, but looked at Bai, waiting for Bai's response.

Feeling the pleading look in Madoka's eyes, Shiro smiled softly and nodded, "Madoka is right, that's exactly what she said."

"Phew~ I was so scared." Hearing the words coming out of Bai's mouth, Sayaka patted her chest. Then she suddenly found that several people were looking at her.

"Uh, what are you looking at? I'm just worried that Madoka will get hurt at her current age. Besides, Madoka and I are best friends. Even if...even if Madoka really wants to find a boyfriend or something, she has to get past me." Sayaka raised her head and looked at the few people with firm eyes.

But in the end, he lowered his head in the eyes of Mami's kindness, Anzi's understanding, and Madoka and Shiro's surprise.

"Then why is Madoka here? I remember that Madoka should have been fine at that time?" Seeing that Sayaka was about to bury her head in her chest, Mami, who already understood something, quickly changed the subject.

Speaking of this, Mami looked at Anzi apologetically, but Anzi didn't care.

"Because the current Madoka is not the Madoka of this world." Under the surprised eyes of the three people, Bai put his hand on Madoka's hair again.

"Humura probably told you she came back from the future, but that's not the case. Homura's ability allows her to travel through parallel worlds and pause time, so she returned to the time she wanted to go back to, which can barely be considered a return from the future. And this Madoka is the first world Homura has ever experienced."

Feeling the discontented look from Madoka for being called 'only', Shiro made an apologetic gesture, then ignored Madoka's gaze and put his hand on her again.

Suddenly, he wanted to untie the ribbon on Xiaoyuan's head to see what it would look like. Bai stared at the ribbon on Xiaoyuan's head, but he resisted the urge.

It’s not the right time yet, so forget it.

"Not from this world? Then the Madoka from this world..."

"Yes, you are still outside. This is one of the reasons why I don't let you go out." He glanced at Mami quietly, and withdrew his hand when he saw Madoka's cheeks gradually turning red and her eyes wanting to take action.

"But, there's also the Witch's Night. The two of them probably can't handle it. Can't you really let us go out and help?" Mami's eyes were a little worried. Since she already believed that Homura Akemi came back from the future, the so-called Witch's Night must be true.

Can her two descendants really solve it?

"It's okay, I'll be watching from the sidelines."

"Really? Well, I feel relieved now that you're here." Mami heaved a sigh of relief after hearing what Bai Hui said.

Although Bai's strength is unknown, he can be seen to be very capable just by resurrecting Sayaka. If Bai is present, then they will definitely be fine.

Thinking of this, Tomoe Mami raised her head and looked in the direction of Shiro, gazing at Shiro's apologetic smile for offending Madoka. For some reason, she suddenly felt a little uneasy.

......

Some time had passed since Shiro took Mami and the others away. After barely fooling Madoka, Homura Akemi and Madoka took on the mission of destroying the witch together.

Although they knew that these witches were transformed from magical girls and did not want to take action against them, if they did not eliminate them, it would affect more people. So the two ended the lives of witches one after another in feelings of guilt and pain.

Until the Witch Night comes.

Because of the contract, Homura Akemi could feel that Shiro had not violated the contract, so when fighting with Witch Night, Homura Akemi was always waiting for Shiro to appear. However, until the end of the battle, the two of them had exhausted all their strength, and the Soul Gem had become turbid, but Shiro did not appear.

The two of them crossed their arms and lay quietly on the water.

"We...are about to be finished..." Madoka turned to look at Homura Akemi and said this with a smile.

Homura Akemi nodded slightly and whispered, "Are there any more Seeds of Sorrow?"

But all he got was Madoka's head shaking in denial.

"Yeah..."

She realized that things were irreversible. Although she didn't know why Shiro hadn't appeared yet, Homura Akemi no longer had any hope.

"Hey, let's just turn into monsters together and mess up the world. Until all those annoying and sad things are as if they never happened. Destroy, destroy, and destroy non-stop. Don't you think that would be good?" Homura Akemi turned her head away from Madoka, pretending to be strong but tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke.

There was a soft ding sound. Homura turned around in surprise and saw that Madoka had taken out a Seed of Sorrow from somewhere and placed it on her Soul Gem.

As she watched Homura Akemi's soul gem gradually become clearer, a smile appeared on Madoka's face.

"I was actually lying to you just now. I...still have one left."

"Why...why give it to me?!" Homura looked at Madoka in disbelief.

"Because, I want to ask you for something that only Homura can do."

"Humura can go back to the past, right? You said that you can change history to prevent this kind of ending from happening, right? Then can Homura go and save the stupid me who hasn't been deceived by Kyubey yet?" Madoka's voice was shaking and choking, tears streaming down her smiling face.

"I promise you, I will save you! No matter how many times I have to do it, I will protect you!" Holding Madoka's hand tightly, Homura Akemi shouted loudly.

"That's great..." After saying this in a choked voice, the body began to twist because of the pain, accompanied by painful groans.

Enduring the pain in her body, Madoka looked at Homura Akemi again and said, "I'll ask you one more favor... please."

Homura Akemi nodded.

"I don't want to become a witch. Even if... there are unpleasant and sad things, there are still many things in this world... that I want to protect."

"Mantou card!"

"Humura-chan, you finally called me by my name... I'm so happy..." The choked voice finally stopped, and Madoka trembled as she raised the already turbid Soul Gem in her hand and gently closed her eyes.

Seeing Madoka like this, Homura Akemi understood Madoka's last request. She lowered her head tremblingly, tears dripping into the water.

The magical girl costume on her body appeared, and Homura Akemi tremblingly took out a pistol and pointed it at Madoka's hand holding up the Soul Gem.

......

In an instant, the world fell into black and white. Homura Akemi suddenly looked up and looked around. Bai's figure appeared next to Madoka at some point.

"Didn't you say you wanted to save Madoka? Why...why did you show up only now!" A hoarse voice came from Homura Akemi's mouth, and Homura suddenly raised her pistol and pointed it at Shiro.

"Just because I said I would save her, that's why I'm here now." Bai's face was calm, and he didn't care about the gun pointed at him.

"But Madoka is like this..."

"I can save it."

"Really..." Homura Akemi slowly lowered her arms and lowered her head, wondering what she was thinking.

"But your mission is not over yet." Seeing that Homura Akemi had accepted his statement, Bai continued.

"Mission, what mission?"

"You are too weak now to help me. I need you to grow stronger. You heard her wish just now, so your mission is to continue reincarnating until you can rescue her yourself. If you fail during this period, I will take action, but otherwise I will not take any action."

"Should I save Madoka... Can I really..." Homura Akemi raised her head and looked at Shiro with confused eyes, only to see that Shiro's eyes were calm.

"...I understand!" The confused expression disappeared and Homura's eyes became firm.

"I will personally fulfill Madoka's wish. I will personally save Madoka!"

"Very good, then, let's start the reincarnation. Don't worry, I will save her, and when you do it, I will give you a gift." Seeing that Homura Akemi no longer hesitated, Bai nodded with satisfaction and made a promise.

Homura Akemi didn't say anything. She took one last look at Madoka and disappeared from this world.

"Huh~ I finally got tricked." Bai scratched his cheek in distress. He had thought of it a long time ago, but if it weren't for Xiaoyuan's words, even if he still asked Xiaoyan to reincarnate, he probably wouldn't achieve the desired effect.

Therefore, they had to bear with it temporarily.

Shiro was relieved to see Homura finally embark on this path.

Looking at Xiaoyuan lying on the ground, he bent down and gently picked her up.

He placed his raised arm in his chest, brushing against the dim soul gem, and the filth within instantly vanished, leaving it clear. He reached out to soothe Xiaoyuan's pained face, pressing her forehead against his chest.

"Have a good rest. This situation won't happen again in the future." Bai said softly, and disappeared holding Xiaoyuan.

And Xiaoyuan in his arms seemed to have heard Bai's words in her sleep. Her brows gradually relaxed and a faint smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.

Chapter 13: Another Reincarnation

The dark world suddenly became bright, and purple eyes suddenly opened.

Once again returning to a familiar place, the calendar beside the bed, the light blue curtains and the white sheets are all the same as I remember.

However, this time, Homura Akemi did not get up from the bed immediately. She lay there with a little confusion in her eyes.

After a moment, he murmured, "Madoka... I can definitely... do it!"

She removed the red-rimmed glasses that had accompanied her for so long, picked up her soul gem, and placed it between her eyebrows. A flash of purple light flashed, and her cloudy eyes regained clarity. She casually untied her pigtails, letting her waist-length black hair fall freely.

"When Tomoe-senpai knows the truth, she will collapse. Sakura Anko and Miki Sayaka won't believe it. So in order to prevent Madoka from transforming into a magical girl, I have to deal with Witch Night, and..." Walking alone in the hospital corridor, Homura Akemi's eyes were full of murderous intent.

"We must get rid of Kyubey!"

Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of something white running past and Homura Akemi stopped.

Time stopped instantly, and Homura Akemi walked slowly towards the white color. Looking at the white 'rabbit' that was paused, she took out a pistol from the shield space with a calm expression.

After a few gunshots, time began to flow, and the rabbit fell to the ground with several holes on its body.

His mood instantly brightened up. He picked up the corpse and threw it directly into the sewer, then left without even looking at it.

However, what she didn't notice was that the rabbit's only remaining eye suddenly looked in her direction.

......

"You should be a magical girl too, right? Why would you do such a thing? We should have never offended you." In an abandoned factory, a Kyubey was running non-stop, and gunshots were heard from behind from time to time.

Kyubey was very confused and didn't understand why the person behind him was chasing him. In Kyubey's memory, they had never met before. Moreover, he could sense that the person behind him had an emotion conversion device created by his clan, so he must be a magical girl.

Homura Akemi did not answer, but continued to shoot. However, because she had only been training for a short time, her body gradually became unable to adapt to the long chase. She had no choice but to pause time and slowly approached to deal with Kyubey.

At this time, Homura Akemi also found that with the end of the chase, she seemed to have come to a familiar place.

It was night time now, and thinking that the person should be at home, Homura Akemi decided to go and check it out.

In a room full of girlishness, a pink-haired girl in pink pajamas was sitting there chatting with her friends on her mobile phone. Suddenly, she heard footsteps outside and quickly turned around to look.

He noticed a black-haired girl standing outside, staring at him.

"Mantouka, if a guy who says he can help you realize your wish and create miracles comes to you, you must not agree to it under any circumstances!" Homura Akemi said this calmly, and then left without waiting for Madoka's answer.

Madoka looked at Homura Akemi's departing back with a puzzled look on her face. "Who is she? Why does she know my name? And what did she mean by that just now?"

Blinking blankly, Xiaoyuan stood up and leaned to the window to look, but there was no trace of the girl. She tilted her head, closed the window, lay on the bed, thinking about what Homura Akemi had just said, and slowly fell asleep.

The next day, on the way to school.

"Why are you out so late today, Xiaoyuan? Didn't you get enough rest yesterday?" The blue-haired girl walked side by side with Xiaoyuan and asked her best friend curiously.

Normally, the two of them would meet at school together, but today she actually had to wait for a while before Xiaoyuan came. As far as she could remember, this was the first time Xiaoyuan had done this, so she was very curious.

"Emmm, I did go to bed a little late yesterday." Xiaoyuan yawned lightly and looked at her best friend beside her with a tired feeling. "Let me tell you, Sayaka, I met a strange person last night."

"A strange person? How could he make you, Madoka, feel strange?" Sayaka was incredulous. In her eyes, Madoka was the epitome of a well-informed person.

She usually listens to the lectures very seriously in school and is definitely one of the good students. Even during her break time, except for occasionally coming to her to relax, she basically spends the rest of the time reading some extracurricular books.

The fact that someone so strangely appeared in front of Madoka made Sayaka regret not visiting her the previous night. As one of Madoka's few close friends, she would occasionally stay overnight at her house. But unfortunately, she didn't go yesterday.

"What? Sayaka? I'm a normal person too. Aren't there many things that make me feel strange?" Madoka looked at Sayaka with some dissatisfaction, but there was no sign of anger.

When Sayaka made an apology gesture, Madoka put away her dissatisfied look and told her what happened last night.

"Yesterday, when I was chatting with you, a figure suddenly appeared from the window. I heard the sound and turned to see that it was a girl about my age. She called my name directly and easily, but I didn't know her."

"She also told me that someone who could work miracles was coming to me and asked me not to agree to her request. I didn't understand what she meant, so when I wanted to get closer to her and ask her clearly, she suddenly disappeared. That's why I went to bed late last night because I was thinking about this." Xiaoyuan yawned again as she spoke.

"He suddenly appears and disappears. Are you hallucinating, Madoka? Or is that person actually a ghost or something who came to find you specially?" Sayaka said, and suddenly a threatening expression appeared on her face. She put her hands on her chest, as if to grab someone.

"Mantou Ka! Give me back my life!"

Then it let out a strange cry and pounced on Xiaoyuan.

However, Xiaoyuan slightly turned her body and easily avoided it.

"Sayaka, you're not scary at all like this." Madoka smiled as she looked at Sayaka who was making funny movements, and the tiredness on her face faded a little.

"Madoka, just pretend to be scared by me." Seeing her best friend teasing her, Sayaka puffed up her cheeks and returned to Madoka with a look of dissatisfaction.

"But you don't look scary at all, you're actually cute." Xiaoyuan smiled gently, and then seemed to think of something.

"Thank you, Sayaka. I feel much better now."

"It's okay." Sayaka waved her hand, not caring about Madoka's thanks, and then approached Madoka with a mysterious look on her face.

"Have you heard, Madoka? It seems like there's going to be a transfer student coming to our class?"

"Transfer student?" Yuan looked puzzled.
