Living with a magical girl, but a weirdo cadre

　[Hahaha! I'm dying of laughter, hahaha... Is it really that fun to simulate flames using the power of faith?]

　The face darkened slightly at the teasing from Gen'an Apophis, who was driving Musou Murasame in the sewers.

　But Cong Yu couldn't refute anything.

　After all, he was trying to save time and wanted to burn his way in.

　"Look on the bright side... things aren't so disgusting around here anymore."

　As Cong Yu spoke, looking around at the relatively clean sewers, she said, "We also proved that the alien sewers are of very high quality. Even if a huge explosion occurred underground, they still did not collapse."

　This forced explanation, which seemed like self-comfort, provoked Yuan An Apophis to laugh even more unrestrainedly.

　[I'm dying of laughter, hahaha!]

　"..."

　"Go ahead and laugh, just keep laughing. In a little while I'll condense you into a manure-pulling treasure and use it to stir up all that garbage."

　【Gah gah gah... Gah?!】

　Yuan An Apophis immediately shut his mouth, casually asking, "By the way, do you know any sealing techniques?"

　Cong Yu decided to pretend she didn't know that her family's extermination technique was quickly changing the subject.

　To be fair, although it's really hard to pull off the voice of Gen'an Apophis as a first-generation character, Cong Yu is definitely more accepting of it.

　Sometimes people even assume she is a woman.

　In the past, he wouldn't have made threats or warnings; instead, he would have taught them a lesson first and then figured out what to do next...

　As for why?

　Because that's the future of X-Sound!

　"Sealing... I really haven't learned it."

　Cong Yu said this in response to Yuan An Apophis's question: "But the key to the power of faith lies in belief."

　As long as the belief is there, everything is negotiable.

　Ah... I don't understand.

　As Yuan An Apophis said this, he watched as Cong Yu used the power of faith to create weapons that slayed hordes of monsters.

　Watching the weapon, whose shape was very similar to the Seven Emperors' Sword, harvesting the skinless beings like wheat and cutting the tentacles blocking its way to pieces... he felt a little itchy.

　[Cong Yu, is it alright for you to waste your faith power like this? To be honest... I don't think this easy difficulty level requires any faith power at all.]

　Cong Yu hesitated for a moment when he heard what Gen'an Apophis said, then nodded in agreement, finding it very reasonable.

　Indeed, although attacking with a blade consumes very little faith power, it still consumes some of it nonetheless.

　It's better to use it sparingly.

　With this thought in mind, Cong Yu withdrew the power of faith from her hand, then waved her hand: "Come on! My most trusted spell!"

　【Come on——】

　"Jormungandr Train!"

　【ah? ! 】

　Is Chapter 939 a decryption...?

　Who is it? Who is Cong Yu's favorite and most trusted technique?

　[Source Darkness Apophis: Hehe-hehe--]

　It's the Jormungandr train!

　[Source Darkness Apophis: Caw?!]

　-

　"The tentacles are getting bigger and bigger."

　As Cong Yu spoke, looking at the bloated, mixed tentacles that almost filled the entire sewer, she asked, "Are we getting close?"

　As he said this, Cong Yu controlled the Jormungandr train, continuously devouring the mixture of flesh and blood.

　Wherever it passed, flesh and blood vanished.

　At this moment, Gen'an Apophis finally snapped out of his grief: "Hmm, it feels very close."

　[What do you plan to do once you arrive? Will you immediately begin the sealing process using the power of faith? Or will you try to negotiate?]

　Cong Yu sighed as Yuan An Apophis, who was still debating whether or not to talk to him, said, "It's pointless to talk about this now... We'll only know if we can talk when we get there."

　makes sense.

　"..."

　"Drip-drip-"

　After her phone rang, Cong Yu opened it and looked at it, then hesitated briefly: "Hmm, what Xiao Cui said makes sense."

　What did she say?

　"She made guesses and inferences..."

　As Cong Yu spoke, she showed Yuan An Apophis a message that Xiao Cui had sent her on her phone: "What will happen to people who cannot use magic after they obtain the Extinction Spell?"

　Although, at this moment, presenting such reasoning to an "extinction technique" feels surprisingly strange.

　It's like showing a kangaroo a paper on "the environmental damage caused by kangaroos"...

　However, Source Darkness Apophis thought it made perfect sense.

　[Oh, if magic can't be used to drive it, then we can only use emotion and determination... This is unprecedented.]

　Source Darkness Apophis, acting as an extinction spell, offered a rational analysis and began to urge: "Why don't you give it a try?"

　If Cong Yu previously had no idea how to elicit her emotions or how to incorporate them into her spells.

　So now, Shen Congyu is undoubtedly a master in the realm of emotions, using emotions to drive extinction.

　The technique is clearly feasible.

　but……

　"But, I refuse."

　As Cong Yu said this, she turned her head to the side in the train and struck a peculiar yet fashionable pose: "I have absolutely no need to try it."

　Because soon, he will be able to see with his own eyes what it is like to exhaust one's emotions and determination in a single extinction spell.

　At this moment, Cong Yu could no longer prevent the Jormungandr train from swallowing all the tentacles...

　The ever-growing tentacles eventually encompassed the entire sewer system, becoming larger than the mouth of the Jormungandr train.

　So, at this very moment...

　The Jormungandr train is no longer devouring the tentacles that act as "obstacles," but rather it's like a drilling train.

　It moves among the surrounding flesh and viscera, which have replaced the sewers.

　Moving in the direction of that "feeling".

　Just like an earthworm underground, devouring soil and moving forward along the tunnel it created...

　Through the car window, Cong Yu could see the surrounding organs and purest minced meat that seemed to writhe like walls.

　These things rubbed against the snake scales of the Jormungandr train, constantly cutting and bursting out scarlet and pink fluids.

　"What kind of magic is this? It feels much more evil than yours!"

　Cong Yu had to speak loudly to avoid her voice being drowned out by the voice of flesh and blood: "Or is this caused by madness?"

　You're asking me? Then who am I supposed to ask?

　Yuan An Apophis's voice was also loud; she shouted, "I've never been insane, I don't know!"

　"I mean it's caused by the host going mad."

　【Well, I've never seen anyone go mad... Oh, if we're talking about "hypothetical," then when we go mad, it's way more outrageous than this. Think of Noah.】

　That's right...

　Noah's example is the most obvious... If she went mad, it wouldn't just be the sewers that would suffer.

　What appears to be an exaggerated world of flesh and blood is actually nothing more than a tiny and weak corner of a magical technique, nothing more.

　And as the surrounding walls of flesh and blood grew thicker and thicker...

　[Almost there!]

　"Yes! I felt it too!"

　With the voice of Gen'an Apophis and the response of Cong Yu, the Jormungandr train seemed to break through some kind of barrier.

　"boom!!!"

　Carrying fragments of flesh and blood, it broke through the passage that had been completely sealed off by flesh and blood, moving swiftly through the air before crashing into a structure that resembled a laboratory.

　The walls shattered, and the utensils fell to the ground and smashed to pieces.

　"..." After a while, Cong Yu walked out of the mouth of the giant snake train and stood in the center of the laboratory.

　Through the laboratory window, Cong Yu could see a huge tumor in the center of the massive building where he was located.

　Countless clumps of flesh and blood burst forth from the tumor, growing upwards like tree branches, sealing off the sky above this underground space.

　They surged upwards along those channels, then, squeezed by the sewers, they transformed into long strips and burst out of the ground.

　Cong Yu is currently in a building complex within this huge underground space, a place that resembles a scientific laboratory.

　【Huh? A sudden change in art style?】

　"No, actually the art style hasn't changed from the beginning... In fact, this is more reasonable."

　As Cong Yu tried to open the terminal in the lab, she said, "He must have been treated unfairly... otherwise, the host of the Extinction Technique wouldn't have gone insane so easily, right?"

　Fortunately, the terminal could still be turned on and the screen could be lit, but unfortunately... the terminal displayed the message "Key chip not connected".

　Cong Yu pondered for a moment, then began to survey the laboratory, and Yuan An Apophis immediately understood—

　[Oh! It's time to solve the puzzle! I've found many similar games in your memory!]

　You need to search everywhere, find the key somewhere, and then you can find the key to leave this room!

　Finally, through fragmented narrative, the dark truth behind the scenes is gradually revealed! Reclaim your memories!

　"..."

　"Haha...you have quite the imagination."

　Cong Yu smiled, then looked at the locked door of the laboratory and pushed it... Hmm? It really was locked.

　[Haha! This door doesn't budge, as if it's fixed to space... or maybe it's simply "unopenable from this side."]

　You're right, but...

　"boom!!!"

　The laboratory door was blown off, spinning in the air like a cannonball before tracing a parabolic arc and landing in the distant pool of blood and flesh.

　【ah……】

　Amidst the exclamation of Gen'an Apophis, Cong Yu, who had maintained his side kick stance, withdrew his leg and then shrugged.

　[Damn it, couldn't you just explain the mystery properly?]

　"Shenjin, do you really think this is a puzzle game? The key might not even be in this room, you know."

　Chapter 940 Moirai: Is there anything else I need to do?

　Cong Yu stayed in the room to search for the key.

　What? Didn't Cong Yu kick the door of this lab open? Why are you still here looking for the key?

　It's like this...

　The decisive kick represents Cong Yu's disdain for the procedural decryption design and her contempt for the fixed plot of finding the key when brute force could be used instead of brute force.

　Staying here to find the key represents Cong Yu's curiosity about the truth.

　This is not a conflict.
