Monster Hunter Gathering

"It looks like you've gotten much better." Granny Cat looked at Homura Akemi, who had already finished her cat meal, and said kindly, "Eating well will make your body healthier."

"Ok?"

Homura Akemi originally wanted to thank the cat lady, but as soon as she stood up, she felt something was wrong.

Homura Akemi discovered that her pocket was glowing...

Then, Homura Akemi discovered that the dirt on her Soul Gem that had been caused by the previous time stop had disappeared, and the magic power in her body had become abnormally surging...

The most obvious feature is that his soul gem can no longer be said to be simply clear - it is simply like a 500-watt light bulb, emitting a dazzling purple light.

"You're in great shape now!" Granny Cat said happily when she saw Homura Akemi's glowing Soul Gem. "Come back next time, Granny will cook you a delicious stew."

“…?” Homura Akemi saw that the light bulb in her hand was not the Soul Gem, and her mind went into a short circuit.

So where exactly is the Hunter's Gathering, and how do the Felynx do this?

What happened? What's going on?

"give up."

While Homura Akemi was in a daze, Lucy's voice was heard not far away.

She looked at Homura Akemi, the new little sister, with a hint of sympathy: "It's useless to think so much, and this is not a place where you can judge with normal thinking..."

"As hunters would say..." Before Lucy could finish her words, David beside her gave her a thumbs up and smiled brightly: "Elu cats can do anything!"

"..." Homura Akemi was speechless. She also wanted to give up thinking, but if she gave up thinking now, what would happen to Madoka and Witch Night?

But all in all, this place doesn't look like a bad place, and they seem to take good care of Xiaoyuan. If Xiaoyuan were here, she shouldn't encounter any danger.

While Homura Akemi was thinking this, Granny Cat took something out of a box, walked over to Madoka, and said to her gently, "Madaga, the bond stone you asked for has been prepared for you."

As Granny Cat said this, she handed Madoka a bond stone that looked like a wristband and was inlaid with a pink stone.

"Thank you, Granny Cat!" Xiaoyuan said to Granny Cat with gratitude: "I will definitely make good use of this!"

"What is this?" Homura looked at the bond stone in Madoka's hand in confusion. Madoka explained to Homura without hiding anything: "This is a tool called a bond stone. It can make you a companion with monsters."

Madoka was a little embarrassed when she said this: "Because... I'm not good at fighting, so I asked Granny Cat to help me find a suitable bond stone for me."

"Compared to other hunters, I have many shortcomings. In order to better help others and future hunters, I also want to work hard." Xiaoyuan clenched her fist and shook it. "As long as I find a monster companion that suits me, I can use the bond stone to act as a knight."

Although Homura Akemi didn't understand the meaning of some of the nouns, she could still understand what Madoka meant.

It's probably about Madoka being able to capture some monsters as companions, and then fight with them...

When she thought of this, Homura Akemi felt a little jealous of the monster that might become Madoka's companion, but when she thought that it could also become Madoka's fighting force, Homura Akemi couldn't say anything.

"Bonding Stone... I want to get one later." Kazuma, who was playing cards over there, put down his cards after Shirou stopped playing and said, "Mr. Kazuma also wants to have a monster partner to fight with!"

"Puchi, puchi, a third-rate adventurer like Kazuma, even if he can capture monsters as companions, they will all be like frogs." Aqua began to mock Kazuma rudely, and then was pinched on the cheek by Kazuma, and the two started fighting on the side.

"Oh! If I could choose a monster as my companion, I would definitely choose that one!" Yang Le tore off the note on his bird head mask: "Sauropod! Although I haven't seen it in person, I feel that its fighting style is particularly suitable for me! It feels like... a ninja!"

"As for me..." Shirou also tried to keep up with the topic: "I would probably choose Thunder Wolf Dragon."

Shirou imagined the appearance of those monsters and recalled the types of monsters that he knew very little about. Shirou quickly thought of the Thunder Wolf Dragon.

In comparison, the dignified appearance of the beast was very much liked by Shirou Emiya, who felt that it was just like a samurai.

"What if I had a monster as my companion..." David said after pondering for a long time: "I can't imagine what it would be like if I had a monster companion, but..."

David asked a question out of curiosity: "If it were the Grand Master, what would he choose as his monster partner?"

David's question made the hunters present tilt their heads, but in the end they were unable to come to a conclusion.

It just so happened that Madoka and Homura Akemi's lunch break was about to end, so they both hurried to prepare to go back to class.

Nie Chiwu, who was busy in the witch's barrier, suddenly sneezed loudly and almost dropped the lever in his hand.

"Looks like someone missed me." Nie Chiwu rubbed his nose. "Very good, the Anti-Tenkai Dragon and Witch Night Special Attack Fortress have been preliminarily assembled. The next step is to add details!"

Nie Chiwu looked at the huge monster in front of him that was being built by the Elu cats, with a look of pride on his face.

Last time, they were caught off guard by Tianhuilong, but this time, he wanted to make sure Tianhuilong had no chance of returning!

As long as we get past the ending of Witch Night, then what follows... will be the ending that the monster hunters have prepared for the magical girls.

Winged Lion

Nie Chiwu asked, "What do you know about witches and magical girls now?"

"What a strange composition, and... what a waste." The Winged Lion appeared out of thin air in front of Nie Chiwu, transformed into the appearance of an Elu cat. "It's just energy, but they use such precious desires to transform it. I really don't get along with those incubators."

Chapter 382 Sakura Kyoko

"Ever since I got to know those hatchers, I've felt it," the Winged Lion said with regret, "I really don't get along with them at all."

"It's like a crow laughing at a pig." Nie Chiwu glanced at the Winged Lion: "You're saying it as if you were much better than the incubator before..."

The Winged Lion didn't deny Nie Chiwu, but also said, "But I do think that using those precious desires... to transform them into energy is a waste."

The Winged Lion's eyes held a smile. "For a meager amount of energy, you transform those precious wishes and hopes into energy... not to mention."

The Winged Lion shook his head. "Incubators are inherently emotionless. Their desires... are like the last bite of oil-soaked, cold rice left after a full meal."

"What a luxurious and damned thing you said! Are you being so arrogant?" Nie Chiwu glanced at Yishi: "Damn it! How on earth did we defeat you?"

Nie Chiwu was a little puzzled, and the more he understood the Winged Lion, the more puzzled he became.

The infinity itself, which comes from infinity, would not be an opponent that can be solved if it were not limited by its own desires.

In the world where Laos lives, the amount of magic power used and consumed by those former masters of the maze is simply astronomical.

Just like Hisler, the great elven wizard who has lived for a thousand years, he used magic to build an entire maze to guard the Golden Kingdom, used magic to stop the rule of death, and created a large number of monsters to protect the people of the Golden Kingdom.

But for the winged lion, it didn't matter how much magic power he used. What the winged lion cared about was his desire as the master of the maze, and he just wanted to use his desire to satisfy his own appetite.

In a sense, the Winged Lion at that stage was a fairly pure monster.

"I'm already familiar with the methods used by incubators to create magical girls," Winged Lion said nonchalantly. "I can now achieve the same transformation using magic power, but this wasteful technology is completely unimportant."

The Winged Lion said, "As long as you wish... the Master of the Labyrinth and the Magical Girl can exist in the same person at the same time."

"I really like humans." The winged lion blinked and said something from the heart: "They are different from those Kyubeys."

"The more I listen, the more I feel like you're a villain." Nie Chiwu sighed, "But it doesn't matter. Of course I trust you, so... can you help those kids?"

"I'm learning." Infinite symbols began to flow in the winged lion's pupils. "You know, I'm just infinite magic power. As for how to use this magic power... I may not be as good as you humans."

"So... I want to give it a try." The Winged Lion smiled. "When Homura Akemi becomes the master of the labyrinth, will the combination of her and magic power allow me to realize her abilities?"

"...you're treating gold bricks like bricks." Nie Chiwu sighed as he looked at the Winged Lion. "But I don't think I have the right to say that."

"Let's get ready. Besides, I've only met four of the five protagonists so far." Nie Chiwu counted on his fingers, "There's still one, Sakura Anzi, whom I haven't met yet."

"otherwise…"

Nie Chiwu scratched his head, and suddenly a somewhat evil idea popped up in his mind: "How about another way to contact Sakura Anzi?"

--------------

"what's the situation?"

Sakura Kyoko, the red warrior in the Five-Colored Squad of Magical Girl Madoka Magica... The red magical girl, who first appeared as someone who was indifferent to the disasters caused by witches, and only fought to seize the seeds of sorrow and use magic power at will.

But although she appears to be like this on the outside, she actually has very heavy experiences in the past, which is why she has become a bit negative.

However, while she was recently active in Mitakihara City, she discovered many strange things, such as the new magical girls that appeared inexplicably.

Those magical girls actually acted together for several days in a row, as if they didn't care about the distribution of the seeds of sorrow at all.

"It shouldn't be."

Xingzi was a little confused. Logically speaking, only magical girls should be able to fight witches, but several magical girls are hunting witches together...will the seeds of sorrow they obtain really be enough for them to use?

Moreover, the witches in Mitakihara City are a little too powerful.

Sakura Anko frowned and began to think about whether she should continue to stay in Mitakihara City. However, today, when she saw Mami Tomoe and others entering the witch's barrier, she felt something unusual.

She changed without hesitation, scanning the surroundings vigilantly with her spear in hand.

She just had a feeling that she was being spied on, but when she looked around, she couldn't find the source of the spying.

But just by turning around, she saw a man wearing armor that covered his entire body suddenly appear behind her, and she couldn't even notice how he got to her side.

"Sakura Kyoko..."

Under the helmet that looked like a demon king's, the deep voice of an adult man sounded, saying Kyoko's name: "Magical girl, come and become our partner, in the name of the Demon King's army."

In response to the man's question, Sakura Kyoko shot a spear at the man's forehead without hesitation.

But just as the spear reached the man, he grabbed it tightly with one hand. The strange force prevented the tip of Xingzi's spear from moving forward even a little bit. What made Xingzi feel most unacceptable was that she didn't even notice how the other party raised his arm.

"Hahahaha...you really have a hot temper." Nie Chiwu grabbed Sakura Anzi's spear and laughed like a boss behind the scenes: "Then I'll give you a chance."

Nie Chiwu looked at Sakura Anzi and let go of the spear in his hand. Anzi retreated directly to a position about ten meters away from Nie Chiwu.

Nie Chiwu raised a finger and said, "If you take two steps back, I will take you in as my companion again..."

"If you think life is too long, just come forward."

"Huh?!" Xingzi looked at the arrogant Nie Chiwu in front of her with some anger: "What a weird thing! Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

Sakura Anzi took two steps forward without hesitation, but after she took a step, she found that not only did she not move forward, but she was even further away from Nie Chiwu...

"Hehehe, you say one thing and do another, Sakura Anzi!" Nie Chiwu crossed his arms. "Why are you backing off? Sure enough, you still want to be a companion of our Demon King's army!"

"How is it possible...!" Anzi's face was filled with horror, while in the distance, Homura Akemi, who had just stopped time, was watching this speechless scene with the winged lion who had moved Anzi back two steps during the time stop.

"So... is he playing?"

Chapter 383 Development (1)

Homura Akemi originally thought that Nie Chiwu found her and wanted her to go with him to find Sakura Anko because he had something important to do, such as wanting to guide Sakura Anko to do something, or to change Sakura Anko's mind.

As a result, after arriving at the place, Nie Chiwu put on the same suit as the Demon King, and asked her to stop time and bring him behind Xingzi, and also told her to use the time stop to help when Sakura Xingzi took action later...

Then, during the time stop, the winged lion helped move Sakura Anzi back two steps...

Watching Sakura Kyoko take another step forward, Homura Akemi paused time again.

After shrinking, the winged lion squatted on Homura Akemi's shoulder, and endless magic power created a giant hand out of thin air, which moved Sakura Anko back two steps in an isolated manner.

"?"

Sakura Anzi looked at her retreated position in disbelief, completely unable to understand how the other party had done it.

Is she a magical girl?...it's impossible no matter how you look at it!

When the contract was signed, Kyubey said that there would only be girls among the magical girls.

Aren't the enemies of magical girls witches? Why does a demon king army appear that looks like something out of a traditional RPG?

"I was clearly taking a step forward..." Sakura Anzi was a little doubtful about her current situation, but Nie Chiwu did not stop speaking in the ups and downs of an opera.

"What's wrong? You're still wavering, Sakura Kyoko."

"If you're wavering...it just means you're still afraid of me."

Nie Chiwu said jokingly, "Or did you originally want to come over, but because you were so scared, your body unconsciously stepped back?"

"Impossible! How is this possible!" Xingzi rushed forward a few steps in fear, but suddenly her eyes blurred and she returned to her original place, while the other party seemed to have not moved from beginning to end.

"Who are you?" Sakura Anzi scolded Nie Chiwu, bent down slightly and gripped the spear in her hand, ready to fight.

"Me? Huh, huh, huh, huh, huh!"

Nie Chiwu burst into laughter upon hearing this and said to Sakura Anzi, "I am the commander-in-chief of the Demon King's army! I even know your future. If you join me now, I will show mercy and tell you everything about your future."

"What a joke! Who would want to join such a weird organization?" Sakura Anzi turned around and prepared to escape, but with just one turn, Nie Chiwu was already in front of her, blocking her way.

Sakura Anzi still couldn't figure out how the other party did it.

Sakura Anzi gritted her teeth, gripped her spear tightly, and rushed towards Nie Chiwu.

Since I can't escape, I'll just force my way out!

Sakura Anzi's eyes were filled with the desire to fight. She stared at the armor that almost covered Nie Chiwu's entire body, trying to find a weak spot in the armor.

A red shadow remained behind Sakura Anzi. She attacked Nie Chiwu with all her might and shot him in the chest.

But something happened that made Sakura Anzi's eyes dazed. Her spear actually pierced Nie Chiwu's chest, and even a large amount of blood spurted out from the wound, splashing all over her face.
