Fighting you is like being in jail.

Today, she was supposed to meet with the creator of Serega, but she sensed some power on the way and rushed over.

She had just met with Serega and Sota and told them what she had seen.

The three of them sat in a booth at the burger joint.

The table in front of me was covered with hamburgers, fries, and drinks.

At this moment, Sota, having learned of the situation, widened his eyes in disbelief, staring at Meteora and saying...

"How is that possible!? I've never heard of anyone having superpowers in my entire life..."

Meteora, sitting across from him, was eating his hamburger with gusto, a thoughtful glint in his blue eyes.

"Perhaps the news has been blocked. After all, some things need to be kept secret, and ordinary people simply have no way of knowing about them."

She thoughtfully shared her thoughts, chewing her hamburger continuously.

Sata still couldn't believe it, his eyes filled with disbelief, and he asked hesitantly:

"Is it... possible that they were also created beings?"

"I don't know. There are too few clues about them. What kind of work do you think these two black-haired modern people are from?" Meteora chewed on her food, enjoying the complex flavor of the hamburger, and mumbled as she didn't want to put it down for a moment.

“That kind of appearance is too common… there’s no way to tell the difference…” Sato sighed in frustration, recalling the works he had seen, but without any clues.

However, Serega, thinking of what happened with Goto Ichiri earlier, said uncertainly...

"Could it be the same as the person I met before?"

"The princess in military uniform?" Meteora looked at Selesia with a puzzled expression.

"No, that pink-clad girl. She was suddenly so weak at first, then suddenly she was like a completely different person, beating that guy so badly he ran away." Serega stared intently at Meteora, leaning forward as she looked at her, her little braid hanging loosely behind her ear.

"I don't know, what do you think, Sota?" Meteora looked at Sota.

"I don't know either. I don't remember any character named Diablo, and there isn't one online," Sota replied, his face full of frustration. He was clearly frustrated by his inability to use his abilities.

Meteora swallowed the hamburger, nodded, then reached out her little hand to pick up the hamburger, skillfully opened the packaging, and happily took a bite.

He said while chewing:

"We'd better be careful."

Meanwhile, when Leng Chang and Kitahara Iori arrived at Goto Ichiri's house...

Everyone had a great time at the Goto family's house, and Goto Ichiri's parents were surprised and delighted by the arrival of Leng Chang and Kitahara Iori, and were also incredibly moved.

"Not only do I have so many friends, but now I even have friends of the opposite sex! That's wonderful!"

Goto Ichiri's mother, Michiyo, looked at the visiting Reijo and Kitahara Iori with deep emotion.

This sudden remark caught Leng Chang and Kitahara Iori off guard, and they both handed over the souvenirs they had bought on the way.

"excuse me……"

"This is a souvenir."

Michiyo immediately resumed her friendly expression and accepted the gift with a big smile.

"Please come in. You two have gone to great lengths."

"No no.

Leng Chang quickly shook his head, indicating that it was nothing to worry about.

So the two went inside and walked on the tatami mats. Just as they were going upstairs to greet Madoka and the others, Michiyo suddenly asked with a smile:

"You didn't rent a friend from Yili, did you? How much did you pay?"

"what?"

"Ok?"

Leng Chang and Kitahara Iori were stunned by the sudden question, and for a moment, they asked in bewilderment:

Can friends still make up?

"That's unethical!"

The two girls' bewildered reactions made Michiyo's smile even wider, and she quickly apologized, saying, "I'm so sorry, Ichiri is sometimes like that. But... thinking about it, she's right, how could such an expensive guitar be a rental from a friend?"

Her eyes were filled with emotion, especially when she saw Goto Ichiri shivering yet happy inside the room through the door; her emotion turned into tenderness.

Suddenly, her tone changed again.

"So, which of you is Yili's boyfriend?"

"what?"

"what?

This sudden change shocked and bewildered Leng Chang and Kitahara Iori.

"Huh? Neither of them?" Michiyo frowned, cupping her face in her hands as she looked at the two of them with regret.

"How is that possible! The age difference is too big!"

"That's it!"

"What a pity, I thought Yili was ready to be sent away."

"No, no, no, that's way too early to think about it."

Leng Chang had absolutely no idea what this woman was thinking, and quickly interrupted this horrifying conversation.

A moment later, when Kaname Madoka and the others saw Reijo and Kitahara Iori, they immediately greeted them happily.

As soon as Leng Chang entered, he saw that Hei Baiqiu had also arrived. He grabbed it, shoved it beside him, and took out a game console to play.

"Iori! Let's connect online!"

"Oh! Katana Hero! Activate!"

"Let's ascend to the Dragon together!"

How could you say such cruel things!

"Koobi! Fuck! Kubi! Hit me!"

"Hey! Hey! Stop hitting me, let's play games! Hey!"

"Alright! From now on, you won't be called Cupid anymore! You'll be called Game!"

"?"

crackling crackling crackling crackling

The two of them went on a frenzied attack on Kyubey, and then, in their very first game, they both simultaneously launched Dragon Rising...

"No way! Dude!"

"How the hell can this be empty?!"

"Quack! It's a Blazing Dragon! Retreat!!"

......

night.

Buzz buzz—!

The roar of the chainsaw echoed through the night sky.

The pitch-black room was filled with a nauseating stench of blood. A tall, black figure stood in the room, holding a chainsaw that had stopped turning, with liquid dripping from its sharp teeth.

"Not enough! Still not enough! I want more!"

One!

A hoarse, muffled sound echoed throughout the room.

It was still that same night.

Inside an abandoned building, on a drafty floor.

Altair sat on the black leather sofa with her eyes closed, resting. She had brought people with her today, and the two people present had clearly sided with her.

"moment……"

She slowly opened her eyes, staring blankly at the darkness before her, as if she could see through everything in that moment, and see the girl with the black glasses turning back to smile at her.

"Immediately, immediately I will plunge the land of the gods into despair."

Her murmured words were so soft that only she could hear them.

The outer rim of those blue eyes had gradually turned red, losing their previous pure blue color.

The night wind stirred the brazier in front of her, and the flickering flames made her vision blurry.

Tread.

Footsteps came from the side; it was the sound of leather shoes hitting the ground.

Altair glanced sideways, but didn't even turn his head.

A pink figure emerged from the darkness—it was Madoka Kaname. She carried a small box and cautiously looked at Altair.

"Um...did I disturb your rest?"

"It's you. What's up?"

After recognizing Madoka Kaname, Altair withdrew his gaze and looked back at the campfire in front of him.

Seeing this, Kaname Madoka took a few steps forward and said gratefully, "Thank you for the money you gave me before, but I don't need it now. This is the money I got today, you can take it and use it first."

"No need to give it to me, you can use it yourself." Altair stared blankly ahead and said indifferently.

"No, no, no, it's because we don't have all of it here. That's why I thought of giving you some."

"Fine, just leave it there," Altair said nonchalantly.

Madoka Kaname walked over in a few steps, placed the small box on the sofa, and looked at Altair with a gentle expression.

"Is there anything else?"

Altair noticed Madoka Kaname's gaze and looked at her sideways with a puzzled expression.

"Kind of."

"What is it?"

"Eat well, rest well, and no matter how much you want to accomplish something, you must take care of your health. I hope you can be kinder to yourself and not just focus on the goal. Sometimes, a little rest is a good choice."

"

"

Altair silently watched Madoka Kaname, a flicker of surprise in his blue eyes, which then softened.

"thank you, I know now."

"Okay, that's settled then. I'm going now. Remember to take good care of yourself."

Madoka Kaname laughed happily, her eyes slightly narrowed with laughter, and her hands clasped together, showing her great joy.

As Madoka Kaname turned and ran into the darkness, she stopped, hesitated, turned back, and asked:

“That… Altair.”

"what?"

"If, and I mean if, you were willing to sign a contract with Kyubey to become a magical girl?"

Even if you already know the truth?

"Hmm... I have no hope of becoming a magical girl anymore, so I hope you won't give up hope."

"Feel sorry."

"It's alright. Now that we know, let's find a way to change it."

Madoka Kaname left without looking back.

They left behind a small box filled with money.

Altair looked down at the small box on the ground, a hint of emotion in his eyes. He then looked up in the direction Madoka Kaname had left, swallowing hard, and remained silent.

Xiaoyuan, what are you trying to remind me of?
