Living with a magical girl, but a weirdo cadre

　"..." Yao Chuanguang: "???"

　Huh? What...what are you going to talk about?

　"..."

　"Darkened Yaochuan Guang" is also known as "Black Yaochuan," or more accurately, "IF Yaochuan Guang." It's clear that the other party is confused.

　"You are me in this cycle of reincarnation, right?"

　Although she was asking questions, [IF·Yaochuan Guang]'s voice was rather certain... her voice was flat and sinister.

　It evokes images of deadly ghosts...

　Honestly, hearing his own voice make that sound sent chills down Yaochuan Guang's spine...

　This is a feeling that most people can hardly understand.

　"Um...that's me."

　Yao Chuanguang answered, then opened her mouth and asked, "So, are you me from the last reincarnation?"

　【IF·Yaochuan Guang】 tilted her head slightly, her eyes still cold. But her tone carried a complex emotion that was hard to detect: "I don't know the exact number of reincarnations."

　However, after being dragged here, she gained a new understanding of the "current situation".

　Both intelligence and missions were imposed on her at the same time.

　In other words, she needs to eliminate her current self in this cycle of reincarnation.

　“…” Examine…

　The corrupted Yaochuan Guang stared at the girl in front of him, whose body was still golden and whose expression was resolute and serious.

　Admittedly, there will likely be quite a few "darkened individuals" who dislike "pure and good individuals" and will therefore take the initiative to attack them.

　However, [IF·Yaochuan Guang] does not have this kind of thought: "Damn it, what makes you think you deserve a happy life?!"

　Instead, feelings of envy and感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex emotion encompassing both admiration and reflection) arose.

　so good……

　"Although I was surprised to be dragged here to compete, seeing my own happiness is the most wonderful thing."

　"Congyu is truly wonderful... It's a pity I've never met anyone named Congyu, nor have I ever possessed her... No, never mind... Never mind—"

　【IF·Yaochuan Guang】sighed, gazing at Yaochuan Guang with her black and gold eyes.

　It was as if she wanted to etch the image of another version of herself, one that was firm and happy, into her heart.

　As Yaochuan Guang listened to the other party's words,

　After a brief moment of contemplation, she came to a conclusion: "So, does that mean we don't need to get it?"

　In response to Yaochuan Guang's words, [IF·Yaochuan Guang] immediately replied: "There's no such thing as a good thing."

　It is worth mentioning that some "IF individuals" will obviously clash with "pure individuals".

　However, it's also quite obvious that there are people who feel a sense of "sigh, loss, and blessing"... Such people clearly exist.

　Even when she turns to the dark side, she still harbors goodwill towards her own happiness.

　However, neither of the Source Dark Apophis is a fool. Therefore, it will naturally impose strict restrictions on these "corners drawn from possibilities".

　in other words……

　"A battle is inevitable."

　As he spoke, [IF·Yaochuan Guang]'s body began to move uncontrollably, and the black and gold magic sphere in his hand quickly formed a two-edged light blade.

　It only has a "blade" and no "handle". Therefore, [IF·Yaochuan Guang] will get injured just by holding it.

　However, the flowing, jet-black blood quickly transformed into sharper, longer blades, appearing in front of the original blade.

　"Be careful, something has possessed me..."

　【IF·Yaochuan Guang】 said, raising the weapon in his hand: "My other self... please kill me for your happiness."

　Hikaru Yokawa: "Mm."

　"It can only be this way... I have to do it."

　Yaochuan Guang said this.

　Chapter 1165 The Defeated Hero - Blue

　Some people, like Yaochuan Guang.

　Such an existence, [Source Darkness Apophis (Ragnarok)], is drawn from a corner of past possibilities.

　That individual (IF) will not have subjective hostility towards another happy version of themselves.

　Such a character will be forced to participate in the battle by [Source Darkness Apophis (Ragnarok)].

　This kind of coercion is probably similar in principle to the "Hydra Brand," but the effects are somewhat different.

　It seems that the "Hydra Mark" on this side can only control the physical bodies of those individuals to fight and be hostile.

　Moreover, merely controlling the "body" and "combat" aspects is insufficient to control the mouths and thoughts of those being controlled.

　This could be another rainstorm, namely "Ragnarok," without any desire to "become friends."

　Therefore, the Hydra brand does not have the same effect.

　Of course, this could also be a modification made by [Source Darkness Apophis (Ragnarok)] to save mana.

　However, it is impossible to expect every "IF individual" to have goodwill towards their potential happy self.

　"..." Lan Tianzhu withdrew his gaze from the surrounding darkness, quietly condensing the eerie blue karmic fire in his hand, and looked at what was in front of him.

　Standing opposite her was another version of herself—

　Let's call it [IF·Blue Sky Nagisa]. Although I don't know which reincarnation of myself it represents, but...

　The other person's eyes were as cold as their expression.

　As everyone knows, Lan Tianzhu is not truly devoid of all three qualities: speechless, emotionless, and expressionless. At most, she can only be described as expressionless.

　After all, Lan Tianzhu actually speaks quite a lot, and his emotions are present, even quite abundant.

　It's just that Lan Tianzhu himself doesn't want to show his expression.

　Sometimes, even she herself couldn't hold back.

　As for [Blue Sky Nagisa·IF], it is the real deal, with no emotion visible in its eyes, and its whole body is shrouded in pitch-black flames.

　The pitch-black fire solidified into a wailing, winged soul, like a kite crying out in silent agony, being burned in the flames.

　That's "Kite Flame".

　Before Lan Tianzhu learned [Severing Source - Brilliance], it was the technique he was most proficient in and had basically been using all along.

　However, the sorrow and despair revealed in the flames made Lan Tianzhu hesitate about the extent of the emotions being conveyed.

　If the blue magic turns black...

　Similar phenomena have occurred before.

　The white magic of the immortal lord, after being doubled in emotional input, began to turn black due to the accumulation of emotions.

　But the flame of "another self" before me was even darker... that is probably more than 200% of the emotion.

　It might contain 300% hatred or despair.

　"..."

　"..." The two responded to each other's silence with silence.

　Finally, Lan Tianzhu broke the silence first, saying, "Nice to meet you, I am Lan Tianzhu, please guide me..."

　Before Lan Tianzhu could finish his self-introduction as part of the prank, he was interrupted by a wave from [Lan Tianzhu·IF].

　The pitch-black flames instantly spread across the ground towards Lantianzhu, transforming into flaming kites with white bones that flew in.

　Already on guard, Lan Tianzhu reacted swiftly, retreating rapidly while simultaneously waving her hands.

　A ghostly blue flame rose from the ground, forming a wall of fire that blocked the black kite.

　"boom!!!!"

　Blue and black collided in the air, unleashing a powerful impact.

　Each impact triggered a sudden burst of blue or black flames.

　"You're not just a simple copy, are you? Me, the 'possibility'... What did you go through to become like this?"

　Lan Tianzhu asked the other person this question, but when she didn't receive an answer, her eyes narrowed as the firewall collapsed...

　The pitch-black flames spread rapidly across her body, subsequently triggering a violent explosion.

　"boom!!!!!"

　"..." An explosion... must be countered with an explosion!

　"Severing the Source, Achieving Brilliance!"

　"boom!!!"

　Lan Tianzhu's voice was exceptionally clear amidst the roar of the explosion, and her body suddenly burst forth with a dazzling blue light.

　The power of 【Severing the Source·Brilliance】 quickly condensed within her body, subsequently causing her skin to crack open with countless fissures.

　This is no ordinary interception of the source of glory.

　This is the source of brilliance, greatly enhanced by Lan Tianzhu after multiple fusions, making it a source of brilliance with even greater destructive power.

　Whether it's the lethality to the enemy or the lethality to herself, it's all the same... She's never cared about that.

　The surging blue flames and black flames collided fiercely in the air, and their fusion caused an even more exaggerated roar.

　It almost encompasses the entire dark, enclosed space.

　Lan Tianzhu's body was thrown away by the shockwave of the explosion and crashed heavily into a dark wall.

　A cold, muddy sensation quickly came from behind... but pain encompassed all the unique sensations.

　[Blue Sky Nagisa IF] only took a few steps back, then quickly regained his balance and looked at Blue Sky Nagisa again with a blank expression.

　This time, [Blue Sky Nagisa·IF] quickly conjured a long thorn made of black flames in his hand.

　Lan Tianzhu had seen those peculiar, "lance-like" spikes many times on Xiao Cui's little sprites.

　Looking at it this way, Lan Tianzhu had some guesses.

　"Xiao Cui is dead?"

　As he said this, Lan Tianzhu quickly waved the blue flame in his hand, barely blocking the opponent's attack.

　However, the black flames quickly entangled her, rapidly burning her skin, and a jet-black pillar of fire shot into the sky.

　"Ahhh... Source Cutting - Brilliance!"

　Lan Tianzhu symbolically read out a few screams, then immediately self-destructed again to escape, quickly moving away.

　"Don't you have anything to say?"

　Lan Tianzhu asked this question in an attempt to buy time, while at the same time quickly using magic to heal his injuries: "We are the same person, aren't we?"

　In response, [Blue Sky Nagisa·IF] paused slightly.

　It seems that Lan Tianzhu's plan to stall for time is quite effective... The other party is also himself, and both sides know each other very well.

　"Same person?"

　【Blue Sky Nagisa·IF】finally spoke, her voice extremely deep: "No, we are already different."

　"Xiao Guang is dead... I killed him."

　“Xiao Cui is dead… I killed her.”

　"Senior Hong is dead... I killed him."

　"Xian Kui is dead... I killed him."

　“Miss Noah is dead… I killed her.”

　Speaking as if reciting a menu, [Blue Sky Nagisa·IF] held up the thorn in her hand: "I didn't mean to destroy your umbrella, but I'm not willing to get soaked in the rain alone... Please die."

　"..." Lan Tianzhu's heart sank suddenly.
