Fighting you is like being in jail.

Standing there, Madoka Kaname slowly turned her head, her bangs brushing against her cheeks, tears streaming down her face. Biting her lip, she said, "It hurts so much too... I never knew a toe injury could hurt this much..."

“…”

At this moment, Leng Chang completely understood everything. His pupils dilated as he stared at Kaname Madoka, his open mouth trembling.

"Gold! How come it's still indiscriminate?! WRYYYY!"

Unexpectedly, Madoka Kaname bit her lip, took a deep breath, endured the pain, clenched her fists tightly, and a glint of light flashed in her eyes.

"Everyone! I won't give up!"

"No, no, no! Stop! I can easily handle these familiars by myself!" Mami Tomoe said in a panic, her body trembling, as she spoke firmly, confidently, and with certainty to Madoka Kaname.

"Yes, yes, yes! Madoka, don't continue! Leave the rest to us!" Homura Akemi said, kneeling on the ground and enduring the pain while covering her toes.

As a result, Madoka Kaname clenched her fist firmly, with certainty and certainty, and forcefully brought it to her chest, as if she had made up her mind, and said without turning her head:

"No! I finally gained power! I finally have the power to save everyone! I will not give up!"

Thud!

Ultimate skill extraction completed!

"YA☆DA☆ZE! Everyone! I drew [Rebellion of the Little Toe] again. If I activate it, everyone will twist their little toes again!" Madoka Kaname's eyes were already spinning, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up completely.

He looked completely broken, even panting heavily and impatiently.

"..."

Homura Akemi paused, her lips twitching. Madoka Magica! Madoka's gone mad...

“…”

Mami Tomoe gave a miserable smile, her eyes losing their luster. Ah, it's broken...

"It's out! Oh dear! This isn't what I expected—!"

Amidst everyone's silence, Leng Chang broke down, covering his face and screaming, "This isn't what we agreed on!"

Then the little toe had its own ideas and started spinning wildly like Thomas inside the shoe.

Click!

"hiss-!"

"hiss--!"

"Ah! My JIO—!"

"it hurts!"

Chapter Twelve: Shh... The sun is setting, so beautiful...

It was cold, shivering, and filled with the rusty, decaying smell of the witch's barrier.

Leng Chang lay sprawled on the ground, his body convulsing. The coldness of the broken ground was no longer important at this moment. The pain in his little toe had made him give up thinking. His left hand was raised above his head, pointing weakly ahead—a posture that seemed destined not to stop.

He won't stop as long as the road continues to extend...

Not far ahead, Homura Akemi's eyes glistened with tears. Large teardrops fell to the ground the moment she looked up, forming large, wet beads. Her bitten lips revealed her stubbornness at all times. She knelt on the ground without saying a word, trembling as she covered the toes of her high heels, trying not to cry out.

As the light from the witch's barrier shifted, Mami Tomoe, standing on one leg, trembled, enduring the pain in her little toe. Kyubey, which she held in her hand, was nowhere to be seen, and the fallen witch familiars around her also lost their ability to move, their foreheads trembling incessantly.

Finally… Madoka Kaname stood in the center of everyone, tears streaming down her cheeks, her eyes still shining, a gentle breeze ruffling the strands of hair on her face. Behind her, the golden ring gears were slowly turning, filled with a sacred aura.

But at that very moment, the golden ring behind Madoka Kaname stopped spinning once again!

The golden ring made a clicking sound as it entered the slot.

Thud!

"Nani?!"

"Masaka!?"

"It's been extinguished!!"

The sudden noise startled Leng Chang, who looked up at Kaname Madoka with lightning speed. Akemi Homura and Tomoe Mami felt a chill run down their spines, their pupils contracted, and they opened their mouths in horror.

Ultimate skill extraction completed!

The dynamic announcement rang out once again from behind Madoka Kaname, like a death knell stimulating everyone's spirits.

"Ah—! Mantouka! What did you do?! Why, why did you activate your teeth again?!"

Leng Chang, who had straightened up, trembled and felt a chill run through him. He opened his mouth wide and let out a painful roar at Kaname Madoka, as an aura of death continued to invade his body.

"I...I want to help everyone! I've gained power and have the chance to save everyone, but...I...I don't want to give up!"

Kaname Madoka turned back to Leng Chang, crying out. Her eyes were full of tears, her brows furrowed with resentment and indignation. She shook her head, clenched her fists, and tried her best to express her thoughts.

"Madoka..."

"Steamed bun card..."

Seeing Kaname Madoka working so hard, Leng Chang and Akemi Homura were momentarily speechless, their unspoken accusations stuck in their throats. Their pupils dilated as they stared at Kaname Madoka, who was desperately trying to help everyone, filled with a deep sense of guilt.

Why should such a hardworking child be criticized by themselves?

But...but...

"Don't blame her."

Suddenly, Mami Tomoe's voice rang out, and Leng Chang and Homura Akemi looked over in surprise. They saw Mami Tomoe looking at Madoka Kaname with a kind expression, her brows full of gentle curves, her golden eyes filled with sad tears, and her lips pursed down, the corners of her mouth slightly pale.

"Why should we criticize someone else's efforts... Shouldn't we be encouraging her at this time!"

Her words startled Leng Chang and Xiao Meiyan, who both paused, their pupils dilating as they stared in realization.

Mami, you are so gentle.

Yes, Xiaoyuan worked so hard for everyone's sake.

Why should I stop it?

Having understood the situation, Leng Chang and Akemi Homura took a deep breath, feeling the coolness in their mouths. Their dazed minds cleared somewhat at that moment, and when they looked at Kaname Madoka again, their eyes were filled with reassurance.

"Xiaoyuan, we believe in you!"

"Xiaoyuan, go do what you want to do!"

They looked at Madoka Kaname with tenderness and encouragement, hoping to give her encouragement and comfort at this moment, and let her know that everyone was cheering her on.

Hearing the two encouraging her, Kaname Madoka was trembling and moved to tears. She looked at Leng Chang with her big pink eyes, then at Akemi Homura, and finally slowly shook her head, her eyes losing their luster.

"Everyone, I'm so sorry. There weren't any other cards in the gacha pool, and I pulled [Little Toe's Rebellion]... Wow—!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Madoka Kaname burst into tears, experiencing the phantom pain.

“…”

“…”

“…”

In an instant, the encouraging expressions on the faces of Leng Chang, Akemi Homura, and Tomoe Mami froze, as if time had stopped. Their eyes twitched and trembled uncontrollably. After a brief silence, their pupils dilated, their eyelashes trembled, and their expressions crumbled like an avalanche.

"No—!"

"Stop! Stop!"

"Steamed bun!"

Click!

Everyone's little toes were instantly aggravated!

"Eek!"

"Croak—!"

"Wow--!"

“JIO——!”

In an instant, everyone screamed in agony; it was a pain that shot straight to their brains. It was as if they had lost control of their bodies, with only pain making them tremble.

The convulsions and tremors, along with the pain that made my eyes roll upwards, were unstoppable.

Poof!

Standing in the middle, Madoka Kaname slammed her knees against the broken ground, stirring up the dirt. Her eyes lost their luster, her mouth gaped open in despair, and tears streamed uncontrollably down her cheeks, leaving faint marks of pain.

Why, why is this happening?

They clearly had power, they clearly had the power to save everyone, two wonderful things combined, so why did it turn out like this...?

Everyone... Am I really unable to move anything?

There are no other skills in the card pool!

How am I supposed to fight like this?!

Despairing, Madoka Kaname cried until her eyes were red and swollen. Her school uniform skirt was soaked with tears—tears of pain. She clenched her fists in frustration, crumpling her black and gray plaid skirt, her arms tensing with a trembling strength.

"I...I...Wadashi..."

Just as Madoka Kaname was in despair, the golden ring behind her emitted a deafening clicking sound.

Thud!

Hidden ultimate skill extraction completed!

A completely different announcement rang out.

"Eh?"

Madoka Kaname's pupils contracted, and she abruptly looked up, as if some new knowledge had been added to her mind at that moment. Her eyes, which had lost their luster in despair, regained a glimmer of hope in that instant, and the corners of her mouth, which had been pursed in despair, widened in surprise at the sudden change.

This is... a hidden ultimate move?!

It's the rotation of a magnetic field!

laugh-!

In an instant, arcs of electricity crackled from Madoka Kaname's body. A strong magnetic field gathered around her, creating a violent arc of electricity!

Zizizi!

As the magnetic field rotated, Madoka Kaname felt an unprecedented and immense power. In surprise, she opened her palm into a claw, and an electric current immediately swirled and gathered in her palm.

squeak-!

The moment the current gathered, a piercing electrical sound resounded all around. Her eyes widened in shock, her eyelashes trembled, and she felt the power of the magnetic field in her palm spreading throughout her body, causing her to experience boundless excitement.

At that moment, she realized that the battle was not over yet, and that she still had the power to save everyone!

He clenched his fist suddenly!

As she absorbed the magnetic field power gathered in her palm, she felt incredibly strong, and her fair skin even emitted arcs of electricity.

She slowly stood up, becoming resolute. The corners of her mouth turned down in seriousness, her furrowed brows were full of awareness, and her pink eyes flashed with arcs of electricity like a rotating magnetic field.

"Madoka...?" Homura Akemi looked up at Madoka Kaname in astonishment, feeling a sense of fear.

Upon hearing this, Madoka Kaname slowly turned her head at a 45-degree angle. The light shone down and blocked her eyes with her shadow, but the power at that moment made Homura Akemi feel terrified.

"There's nothing to worry about anymore, Homura. We don't need to continue. I will save everyone!"

She said something in a low voice, clenched her fist, and her arm began to tremble as the magnetic field gathered, and electric arcs flickered on the skin of her fist.

"I misunderstood it, there are other cards in the gacha pool! The final piece of the victory puzzle is in my hands!"

Madoka Kaname's eyes narrowed, and she gritted her teeth as she unleashed the power of her magnetic field, channeling it into her fist and launching an attack on the fallen familiars around her.

"Such power! It's more than enough to save everyone!"

"Steamed Bun Explosive Fist!"

"Eek!"

Bang-!

She punched the familiar, shattering its body and breaking the witch's barrier!
