The Eye Demon Doesn't Die from the Magical Girl

"No matter how much they look like humans, they are ultimately not part of this world. How can they truly empathize with us? They treat our world as a toy, a pleasure, even a game, and act recklessly. Isn't the so-called cooperation and companionship we're talking about a betrayal to our comrades who sleep forever underground?"

"But the end of persisting to the death is often complete destruction, with nothing left."

The elderly man sighed, causing Cavill to grit his teeth, but he couldn't say anything else and just sat back in his seat.

The old man pondered for a while and then spoke.

"Thanks to the existence of the Shattered Star Palace and the Extraterritorial Demons, we now know that our world is not special at all, nor is it the only stable reality."

"For those beings who come here, they have no family, no relatives, and are ultimately just outsiders. It's normal that we can't understand or communicate. I also know that in the few times we might have been able to communicate and contact, we also encountered many terrible disasters."

"But we are the decision-makers after all. What we need to do is to choose to protect more people and prevent more people from being drawn into and falling into this kind of danger, rather than dragging those who should not have suffered into a desperate situation because of our own hatred, and in turn trampling on their lives."

"At least from what we can see so far, that extraterritorial demon certainly doesn't have any malicious intent. Judging from his account of his past, as an orphan, he probably doesn't miss his original world too much."

"In this regard, perhaps we can indeed wait a little."

"After all, I think everyone knows that the magical girls we have had to rely on have also encountered major problems."

Chapter 130: The enemy and I have the same origin?

"It's not just here. There are signs of magical girls disappearing in many places, and..."

The old man paused, glanced at the report in his hand, and then raised his head.

"Became a subordinate of the Broken Star Palace."

"The fallen girl, coupled with those fallen demon believers who only make things worse, is really giving me a headache."

The woman sighed, a distressed expression on her face.

"They are using our power against us."

"Correction, magical girls cannot be considered our power. That is the power of the Holy Spirit Temple. We are merely given the power to supervise magical girls."

One of the young men, who looked relatively younger, also sighed and said helplessly.

"It's obvious that with the passage of time, our so-called oversight has had its share of omissions. I even caught some magical girls colluding with members of the Dark Mace Garden to make false reports. If the Holy Spirit Temple hadn't responded, which aroused my suspicions, I might have been fooled by them."

"You should be more careful, Hongyi. You're a newly appointed commander, and your subordinates are more or less dissatisfied. Don't make a mistake."

"Don't worry, the fact that I can come up here doesn't that mean I have a certain level of skill?"

Sha Hongyi shrugged and asked the woman to wave her hand with empty eyes.

"No, it's just that your predecessor as Metal Master had bad intentions towards magical girls, so he was directly removed. Don't be too confident."

"Also, it's normal for young men of your age to have some affection for beautiful young girls, but don't do anything shady just to please some of them."

"Don't worry about it, Aunt Rebecca."

Sha Hongyi curled his lips and said, causing Rebecca's eyelids to twitch.

"Alright, alright, stop joking. What we are discussing now is the existence of those fallen women."

Cavill said with some impatience, bringing the topic back on track.

"They have completely sided with the Broken Star Palace and are actively attacking other cities and magical girls. Some of them can't return, while others have been brainwashed and turned into fallen evil girls like those people."

"Furthermore, they are also recruiting those mentally challenged children who daydream about the destruction of the world to join their ranks. As a result, there are more and more lawless and evil girls now."

"Not only that, but more importantly, they can also earn points by destroying worlds and instigating others to do good, and rely on the Shattered Star Palace to fulfill their wishes."

Cavill's words once again caused the entire conference room to fall silent.

It was not until a while later that Sha Hongyi raised his hand and spoke slowly.

"Honestly, I'm probably not the only one who thinks this is like using our world to raise insects and fight crickets, right?"

"Some people have felt this way for a long time, but it's just been difficult to express."

Duncan responded calmly, sitting up a little straighter.

"But after all, the Star-Breaking Palace is indeed destroying the existence and people of this world. Perhaps in the future we will discover that they are actually the same entity, but at least for now, we still need to rely on it and the power of the magical girls to prevent more people from suffering misfortune."

"And from what we've seen so far, the Holy Spirit Temple is indeed almost completely good and quite lenient, rather than absolutely righteous. This kind of humanity, in a sense, allows us to discuss it freely here, doesn't it?"

"But it's also true that we need to move away from the power that relies on it."

As he spoke, he looked at Cavill, who snorted coldly and turned his head away without refuting Duncan's words.

"Duncan, I remember you said before that some of your Dark Mace Garden members were trying to gain power by studying demons?"

The old man asked slowly, causing Duncan to nod slightly.

"Well, after all, in a sense, perhaps demons and demon-slayers themselves are the natural forces native to our world, so theoretically we should be able to utilize them."

"What's the progress?"

"Unfortunately, I cannot say anything about this for now, including the possibility of success and the specific measures."

Duncan shook his head slightly and looked around at the several leaders in the conference room.

"After all, even if I trust everyone here, there's no guarantee that someone in the Dark Mace Garden won't take extreme measures and conduct forced experiments on the demon after learning about this."

"In fact, I've already discovered some similar beings here, but they've all been wiped out due to the Eye Demon incident caused by the Fallen Demon believers."

"While there are certainly some vicious and brutal demons among them, I generally think we shouldn't become too hostile to them, especially now that many magical girls are so undisciplined in this regard. We need to put the brakes on this, or else we'll inevitably see magical girls forcibly hunting and capturing innocent demons to get rewards from dishonest researchers."

"Your idea is reasonable, but if that's the case, how can you expect to make any progress? I don't think many demons would be willing to be studied, especially now that they're likely to be captured and confiscated by other magical girls if they show up."

"In this regard, I already have some ideas."

Duncan said calmly, causing the others' expressions to turn curious.

"How can we do this? We don't have any means to guarantee them, otherwise we wouldn't be so worried."

"It's simple. If we can't do it, we can just get someone else who's different from Anjianyuan and the magical girl."

His answer also made several people stunned for a moment.

After realizing what was happening, Cavill's eyes widened, he slammed the table and roared.

"Are you fucking crazy? Letting that extraterritorial demon take care of this? Are you afraid it won't gather a bunch of demons and destroy the world all over again?!"

"Don't tell me some demons have brains. It's an Eye Demon, so controlling his mind is as easy as eating and drinking. Who knows if he's just saying he only has those base abilities left, but secretly using his true abilities to control a group of his own assassins?"

"Yes, he might indeed have human ways of thinking and values, but that also means he possesses the same inherent human qualities. Not to mention that this is a world with which he has no kin or connections. Furthermore, given his abilities that surpass those of ordinary people, who knows if he'll actually treat this world like some kind of game to grind for achievements?"

"Under such circumstances, it, with its human-like thinking, is actually more dangerous than those extraterritorial demons who simply seek to destroy the world."

Chapter 131 Dark Circles

Ji Hui, who was working in a small coffee shop, naturally had no idea that a person in charge was dissing him madly in the conference room.

He just looked at Yu Mingxue in front of him with dark circles under his eyes and asked in surprise.

"You didn't sleep well last night?"

"Well, I had something to do, so I slept a little late."

Yu Mingxue nodded slightly, then seemed to realize something and tilted her head slightly.

"Also? Ji Hui, you didn't sleep well last night?"

"Ah, nothing, just something."

Ji Hui coughed dryly. After all, it was not appropriate to mention his encounter with Ruth to her, so he just spoke evasively.

But his slightly embarrassed look seemed a bit intriguing in Yu Mingxue's eyes.

"Could it be that something happened between you and that miko? You looked so smug at work yesterday."

"No, no, nothing really. I was just busy memorizing words last night."

Ji Hui waved his hand quickly, and Yu Mingxue also nodded doubtfully.

But after all, these were just Ji Hui's private affairs, and it would definitely not be good for her to interfere casually, so she didn't care too much.

"Eh? What's wrong with you two? You look so listless?"

Looking at Ji Hui and Yu Mingxue sitting at one of the tables eating breakfast, Feng Yingying, who had just washed up, blinked and asked in surprise.

"It's okay, just a little insomnia."

Yu Mingxue shook her head gently and yawned, causing the food residue on the corner of her mouth to fall onto her apron as she trembled, forcing her to quickly raise her hands and catch them before they accidentally fell into the mountains.

"Would you like to go upstairs and rest for half a day today? Let's see how you feel in the afternoon."

Seeing that her condition seemed to be even worse than his, Ji Hui also made a suggestion.

"Anyway, today is a weekday, so there won't be too many customers. Yingying and I are enough."

"It's okay, it's nothing serious."

Yu Mingxue shook her head gently, as if she wanted to prove that she was fine, but the way her head nodded down little by little and her body swayed slightly made Feng Yingying's expression even more worried.

"You don't look like you're okay. You can barely stand."

"Let's go upstairs and get some sleep. If anything goes wrong while working, it won't be good for the guests."

Ji Hui also frowned and sent all the customers of this store out. Only then did Yu Mingxue, who wanted to show off, hesitate for a while and then nodded slightly.

"Okay, in that case."

During the time that Ji Hui has worked in the store, he has proven his abilities. If I hand the store over to him temporarily, I will feel more at ease.

At least, compared to Feng Yingying, who is often clumsy, Ji Hui makes her feel much more at ease.

So with staggering steps, Yu Mingxue also walked up the stairs and disappeared from the sight of the two.

"It seems like she's not just staying up late, she's already been up all night, and it's a serious all-nighter."

While Ji Hui was clearing the table, he asked Feng Yingying, who lived under the same roof with Yu Mingxue.

"I'm not sure, but it seems like Xiaoxue has been distracted from time to time lately."

Feng Yingying shook her head at first, then seemed to remember something and frowned slightly.

"Could it be that there is something very heavy on your mind?"

"Maybe. How about I go back and ask?"

Her words made Ji Hui think for a while and then shook his head slightly.

"Forget it. If it's something this serious, it's best to leave her alone for a while. If she really couldn't stand it, or wanted to talk, she should have come to you last night."

"Although there are times when she holds things back and refuses to speak, Xiaoxue's personality doesn't make her the type to keep everything to herself."

"Your analysis is quite logical."

Looking at Ji Hui's thoughtful expression, Feng Yingying couldn't help but mutter something.

"I've seen it so many times."

Ji Hui shrugged and pushed the plate with 8 scouring pads in front of her.

"Okay, wash these things, I'll go open the main door and get ready for business."

"Tsk, what's a guy who just passed his probation period being so proud of?"

Feng Yingying curled her lips, but knowing that she was not as capable as Ji Hui, she still took the plate and walked into the kitchen to prepare the meal.

Then eight

Looking at the magical girls who appeared from the windows after the rolling door was opened, Ji Hui took a deep breath and, under their gaze, turned the sign on the door that said "Close" to "Open".

Today I have to deal with this group of difficult magical girl customers, my wife.

"Welcome, what can I order?"

Looking at the magic girl lying in front of him, bringing the chasm under her coat to his eyes, Ji Hui also put on an awkward but polite smile.

"A panini and a cup of black coffee."

She said with a smile, and then took out her cell phone and skillfully took out something that looked like a hose from her bag.

"Also, please remove your glasses. Three seconds will be enough. Thank you."

As she spoke, she opened her mouth and bit the tube in her mouth, just like a patient on an operating table enduring pain, trying to relieve the intense pain by biting something tightly.

"Miss, this is really a cafe."

Ji Hui sighed, causing the woman in front of him to blink.

"But you're a waiter, so asking for a tissue is normal, right? Oh, and give me two tissues, too. Thank you."

Seeing that Ji Hui still didn't move, the woman urged him again.
