Watching the anime from Madoka Magica and writing the rules

The bird's claws penetrated into its body from its back, and then the force of falling and rising caused a recoil, as if its scapula was locked.

"As expected, you came, but this is not enough."

Zhixing felt the unprecedented sensation of a foreign object in his body. He didn't know if it was due to demonization or if it was just like that. Zhixing didn't feel any pain, but took the next step.

While being caught, Zhi Xing raised his hands high and then smashed them down with his fists.

The body, which was originally stopped by the bird doll and hung in the air, was completely disproportionate to the strength and weight of the bird doll. The paper bird followed the force and spun around violently, then fell to the ground which was already not high.

As soon as he landed, Zhi Xing did not look closely at the stuffed bird holding two balls of cotton in its hands above him. Instead, he quickly stood up, put his hands around his back, and skillfully grabbed the gap. He began to hold it tightly as if he was fixing a wound and ran towards the exit.

"The power to break free from the familiar has indeed appeared, and it has safely reached the surface. The witch isn't looking this way either. So, there are only two remaining questions."

Zhixing turned around and saw the second-ranked bird doll flying towards him.

But the distance did not get shortened, instead it tended to get wider as the paper moved forward.

Seeing that the more effective running posture that he had learned from humans could still be used on his demonized legs, he didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

After all, Zhi Xing's first question is the most unpredictable one: Can he escape from becoming a familiar?

"The possibility of demonization is high, most likely because the accumulated magic power in the body exceeds the body's absorption range."

"And the demonization doesn't start from the absorption part, but from the feet to the head."

"So it's likely that it only turns into a familiar after exceeding the absorption limit and reaching a certain amount."

"But magic power can't be created out of thin air. I've absorbed so much. If I consume this excess magic power, can I still turn back into an ordinary person?"

"No, even if my body is fixed like a doll after being transformed into a demon, as long as I can escape, I can still transform back into a human body when that uncertain time is reset."

"But...how much is enough?"

The paper line tore at the gap on his back.

Although there was no sense of pain, the real touch made Zhi Xing move very slowly. It was a survival instinct to prevent himself from hurting himself.

Relying on tearing off the doll's body to force the magic power to prioritize healing the wound was only a barely effective method.

Although the progress of the brain's transformation into a demon has been greatly suppressed, Zhixing can still feel the soft feeling spreading along his neck.

"No, I still need to fight the toy bird and use its power to consume my magic power."

With the help of his legs that swelled up after being transformed into a demon, Zhixing quickly escaped from the witch's room.

But what greeted the paper shop was an unfamiliar corridor, rooms with walls, and a door that led to an unknown destination.

Passing by this densely populated group of familiars, Zhixing found that he was not attacked by any familiars. He stopped and turned to look at the bird doll that was pestering him.

Although Zhixing had received some training, he had no idea how to fight with people, let alone birds.

But fortunately, Paper Walker doesn't need to win the fight, he just needs to be beaten and not be caught and taken back by the stuffed bird.

Perhaps it is because the blood affects the brain first.

Although the Paper Line's head had not yet begun to transform into a demon, it had caught up with the speed of the Doll Bird.

Facing the direct attack of this demon.

Zhi Xing imitated the bullfighter's jumping left and right, and successfully...made his own injuries worse.

"Although I didn't feel any pain, the sensation, like cutting jelly rubber, was incredibly creepy."

Facing the persistent attacks of the doll bird, Zhixing, while being injured, successfully dodged the attacks of the doll bird in advance in this first battle.

Once there is one, there will be two. As the paper line gradually adapts, small-scale acceleration sprints can no longer hurt the paper line.

Zhixing also began to control the extent of his injuries and the parts of his body that were injured.

After a while, Zhixing touched his neck and felt that the progress of his demonization was no longer increasing, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Looking at his upper body, which had no intact part, and even seeing the large pieces of cotton on the ground, Zhixing looked at the unharmed stuffed bird and began to carry out the stuffed bird's escape plan.

Accustomed to this direct attack method, Zhixing quickly found an opportunity to get the toy bird's claws stuck in the gap of the assembly line.

After covering and tightening the seal with another piece of cash, the paper merchant left the scene and fled. He began to enter any door he saw and soon got lost in the maze.

"Hey, do we still have to wait here like that mysterious man said?"

In the alley outside the school gate, Ryuji yelled impatiently at Amamiya Ren.

Amamiya Lian nodded, and said with emotion as she looked at the words in her hand:

"That mysterious man seems very anxious. He might want our help with something, and I'm afraid it can't be done by just the two of us."

Morgana, who looked like a black cat, looked at the students from the Homecoming Department who were leaving the school and said absentmindedly:

"Maybe I can see Ms. Xing again~"

Then he added a serious reason:

"Besides, weren't you being recorded by the other party? They threatened you to obey or else they would make this matter public."

"So what if I announce it? Maybe I can become a hero because of it."

Ryuji said excitedly.

Amamiya Ren shook her head, then looked up the news on her phone and explained to Ryuji:

"Recently, there seem to be accidents in the city caused by disabled people with unknown causes. If news of someone with superpowers suddenly appears at this time, they might be treated as criminals."

"Isn't that the same thing happening to that outsider who suddenly burst into the school? And it looks like they're in the same group as the guy on the phone."

Long Si obviously did not agree with this statement, because if there was someone else who also had this power, then this danger would not occur.

"But that man has disappeared, and Kamoshida has been gone for almost a day."

"We've fought before. Even though we used the power of the mask, it consumed a lot of energy. We couldn't sustain a full day of fighting."

Long Si used his brain to think for a while, and suddenly slammed his palm to come up with a possibility.

"Maybe he didn't intend to enter the castle, but simply kidnap the person?"

Even Morgana, who has little contact with modern society, gave reasons to refute this.

"The teacher named Kamoshida must have come into contact with that person from outside the school first, so he was trying to force you to tell him if you knew him."

"If he really had the ability to kidnap, he wouldn't have stayed until we saw Kamoshida again."

"As a teacher, Kamoshida is obviously not worth kidnapping. The only thing that makes him valuable is probably the secret treasure in the other party's palace."

Long Si scratched his head, unable to think of any other possibilities.

At this time, Amamiya Ren interrupted their conversation.

"Since the other party hasn't made any further requests, why not take a look at the current situation of Kamoshida's palace? Maybe that mysterious man wants us to rescue him?"

Long Si looked at the unresponsive phone and nodded. Then he directly opened the app that was transferred from Amamiya Ren's phone and input the following voice message:

"Damushida!"

"Target to confirm."

"castle!"

"The target hall has been identified."

"Shujin Academy!"

"...the target's location was not found."

The voice message coming from the phone made Long Si stunned. He had clearly entered in this way before, so why did it suddenly not work?

Amamiya Ren was also stunned for a moment, then tried it with her own mobile phone, but also failed at the last step.

The two protagonists who relied on the app couldn't help but look at Morgana, the only one who could move freely through the halls.

"Sure enough, I said I couldn't sense it. It seems that the outsider did something and moved the location of the hall from the impression space. But how did they do that?"

The three of them fell into silence for a moment, but soon the silent atmosphere was broken by a voice.

"Ah, here you are. You must have been called here by the person on the phone. Do you know what it is?"

"Ms. Xing~"

Following Morgana's surprise, Gao Juanxing came jogging over from a distance.

Yuki Mishima, who was watching Ren Amamiya in a room in the teaching building, saw that everyone was gathered and also started to leave the school from the classroom.

However, Mishima Yuki, who stayed away from Amamiya Ren because he was not familiar with her, eventually lost this opportunity.

Just when Takamaki An came to Amemiya Ren and the others.

"Destination confirmed, navigation in progress..."

"Huh? What's that sound?"

Chapter 227 When did I have the illusion that I could change my fate?

"Failed...?"

The paper star lying on the ground barely raised his eyelids, trying to keep himself awake.

However, such efforts are of little significance to the paper company lying in a pool of blood.

"...We clearly found the edge of the barrier...but this is the result..."

After Zhixing used the assembly line factory to hinder the tracking of the doll bird, Zhixing also took a look at his own situation while looking for a way to escape from the barrier.

But I don't know if it's because he didn't absorb enough magic power, or because his mind hasn't been demonized yet.

Zhi Xing's body simply expanded, and was filled with cotton inside. He still looked like a human and did not turn into an animal.

Zhixing was thinking that this time he had succeeded. Maybe in the future he could often use the magic to give himself the power to fight against other things in the witch's barrier.

But it is obvious that this power cannot be well controlled by oneself.

As the distances between rooms became less and less visible as they went further out, Zhi Xing did not encounter the areas he had explored after traveling an unknown distance, and eventually arrived at the edge of an unfamiliar barrier.

I touched the phone that should have been in my trouser pocket, but because my thigh was swollen, I could no longer feel the bulge between the phone and the gap in my pocket.

So Zhi Xing had no choice but to hurry out of the barrier.

The witch's magic power remaining in the body could not appear in the real space, just as Zhixing expected, but it also did not dissipate in one second.

So Zhihang looked around and quickly came to the alley.

Touching his shrinking thigh, Zhixing was a little unsure whether his phone was broken due to the demonization or other reasons, so after his pocket returned to normal, he reached in and started to take out his phone.

The good news is that the phone seemed to be enchanted by magic, so it returned to its original state intact without being hit.

The bad news is that when the paper operator grabbed the phone, he felt it was a bit sticky. But after he took the phone out, he realized that the stickiness was not caused by liquid leakage from the phone or soup spilled into the pants.

Instead, the hand holding the phone was bleeding.

No, Zhixing quickly realized a possibility and looked at his body.

As expected, the injuries inflicted when he transformed into a demon came upon him as his magic power faded and he returned to a human body.

Zhixing immediately thought of the cotton balls that were separating from his body piece by piece, and immediately started shouting for help from the little bear.

However, nothing changed from Zhi Xing's silent recitation to his calls with his dyed throat.

With the familiar symptoms of anemia, Zhi Xing's vision turned black and white, followed by a weak fall to the ground and a pool of blood that began to spread outward.

The witch...power...use...isn't working...

There was no trace of people in the black and white vision, because in order not to expose his bloated body when he just came out, Zhi Xing deliberately ran to the corner of the alley. No one would notice him if he didn't pass through the alley.

"Om~Om~Om~"

Phone No. 3, which was a little late, received a call from another phone, and the lying paper bank could feel the vibration of the phone.

"It's Sakura Futaba! She should be able to know my location!!"

Because of the stimulation of the mobile phone, Zhixing suddenly realized the hope of being rescued, but Zhixing was unable to answer the phone. He could only turn his head and stare at the phone.

10 seconds...30 seconds...1 minute...

The call was hung up before it was connected, and Zhixing kept his eyes wide open, not blinking for a long time.

"Hmm? This is..."

Zhixing blinked his eyes and sat up effortlessly.

It was as if someone suddenly woke me up from my sleep. Although I didn't know what happened, I instinctively sat up to raise my vision.

"Blood? My...memories haven't disappeared?"
