Living with a magical girl, but a weirdo cadre

　[Source Darkness Apophis: I'll defend, you attack!]

　"You defend, I'll attack!"

After saying these words in unison, Cong Yu swiftly swung his sword, aiming it directly at Ragnarok's neck.

　This is retaliation for the previous attack...

　"Chi!!!"

　After being cut several inches in, Ragnarok, realizing what had happened, immediately used magic to block Cong Yu's hand, and then...

　"boom!!!"

　His body exploded with magical power, repelling Cong Yu and leaving behind some flame-like marks that continued to burn.

　For Cong Yu and Yuan An Apophis, the damage was naturally not high enough... but it was still something that needed to be repaired with the power of faith.

　Although the two people standing here now may be the strongest in this world, or even in all parallel worlds.

　However, their fight was remarkably simple...

　It is even more unpretentious than most "arenas"... perhaps it is because the greatest truths are the simplest, and we should return to the basics.

　Before we knew it, the two of them had reached this point...?

　But no.

　The principle is very simple...

　One of them must conserve their faith power and not waste it, while the other must conserve their magic power and resolve and not overuse them.

　That's all...

　Otherwise, they really wanted to completely fill the space with magic/faith power and drown the other party.

　Unfortunately, the conditions didn't allow it.

　"..."

　"call……"

　Cong Yu took a breath and, seeing that "Ragnarok" was still in good condition, he immediately attacked again.

　"Origin Darkness Apophis!"

　[Source Darkness Apophis: Alright! I'll go left, you go right!]

　In this exchange, Gen'an Apophis attacked to the right, while Murasame attacked to the left without hesitation.

　Thanks to this strange tacit understanding, the two achieved some results once again.

　Unfortunately……

　It is quite obvious that the opponent's consumption is much less.

　Chapter 1173 A desperate rescue!

　What is destiny?

　Ragnarok asked this question as it pierced Cong Yu's heart with its sword: "Answer me! Is it fate that has brought me victory at this moment?!"

　After that roar, he let go.

　Cong Yu, with a sword stuck in his chest, stumbled back a few steps, desperately squeezing out his faith power to repair his body.

　However, just like a college student who doesn't usually exercise but insists on running a marathon... At this moment, Cong Yu's mind went blank.

　Previously, they were fighting entirely on instinct...

　The concept of time had vanished from his mind.

　To the point that he was even somewhat unable to assess the extent of his own faith power reserves...

　Cong Yu had a brief period of lucidity earlier.

　At that time, he was able to make a judgment—his faith power was running low and he needed to use it sparingly.

　However, after making this judgment, he had no choice but to devote himself entirely to the battle against Ragnarok.

　So much so that, in this moment of daze...

　He didn't even know if he still had the power of faith to heal himself... or if his body was already riddled with holes.

　But since I can still continue fighting.

　So perhaps there's still some power of faith left...

　Thinking this, Cong Yu opened her mouth, but didn't say anything. She only heard the sound of blood mixing with bubbles.

　Then he heard "Ragnarok" again.

　sound--

　"No, it is not fate that has determined my victory at this moment... but my victory itself is to end our (Cong Yu's) fate."

　As Ragnarok spoke, he looked at Cong Yu, who was covered in wounds, with her chest and throat completely damaged and recovering slowly.

　The power of faith has been completely exhausted...

　Or rather, Cong Yu's power of faith had actually been almost exhausted long ago...

　However, during the battle, a great deal of faith power continued to flow in, which allowed Cong Yu to persevere until now.

　In other words, Cong Yu will die surrounded by thousands of people.

　This kind of death made Ragnarok unable to help but feel envious of this other self... If he could, he would want to do the same.

　He has a very clear definition of himself—a villain.

　However, if he could live with himself and remain indifferent to the fate of all the "Murayu"...

　So, of course he didn't want to be the villain.

　Unfortunately, it didn't work...

　Cong Yu's body swayed precariously, the sword blade still embedded in his chest, blood slowly dripping down the blade.

　His vision began to blur, and the sound of "Ragnarok" echoed in his ears, as if it were coming from a distant place.

　"destiny……"

　Cong Yu's voice was weak, almost inaudible. His lips trembled slightly, as if he were trying to find an answer.

　Ragnarok stood before him, looking at him with a complex expression—this being who shared the same origin but had chosen a different path.

　"Fate is...something we cannot escape. No matter how much we struggle or resist, we will eventually be swallowed up by it."

　“Our flesh and blood were dissected, our hearts were ripped out… and what was created was the great cause called Moira.”

　These words had already been spoken before Ragnarok.

　Cong Yu struggled to lift her head, her repaired trachea exposed, her gaze unfocused: "No... fate... has called me to fight."

　As he said this, Cong Yu immediately reached out and grasped the sword blade embedded in his chest... The darkness of the possible was constantly corroding his fingers.

　Even so, Cong Yu still firmly gripped the sword hilt...

　After all, compared to his numerous injuries, this kind of injury is nothing at all.

　"..."

　Ragnarok silently watched all of this.

　"Hey..."

　Cong Yu forcefully pulled the blade from his chest, and then the "blade" was summoned back to his hand by Ragnarok.

　Ragnarok actually consumes a great deal of resources...

　Although we haven't quite reached the point of being "out of ammunition and supplies," it was still extremely difficult... We won, but it was a hard-fought victory.

　As blood gushed from Cong Yu's chest, the [Source Darkness Apophis] that had emerged from his neck began to coalesce anew.

　Although at this moment, [Source Darkness Apophis] looked somewhat limp, it still managed to barely stop Cong Yu's wound.

　It blocked the two fatal wounds on his neck and chest.

　Cong Yu's gaze became more focused. He was breathing heavily, and his body had become somewhat tattered.

　"Even if...fate is like this...I will still...choo...hah...haha..."

　Before she could finish speaking, Cong Yu gasped for breath, her voice already extremely weak.

　Looking at Cong Yu before him, Ragnarok knew... Cong Yu could no longer fight.

　What a stubborn person I am...

　As Ragnarok thought this, a dark magical force returned to his neck and transformed into a soft scarf.

　From this perspective, the two [Source of Darkness - Apophis] echo each other...

　After all, they all suffered a major defeat and were beaten to death.

　[There's Moira outside! Moira has turned into a woman! And that Demon King has also gained the power of faith!]

　Ragnarok was clearly taken aback by his own source, Dark Apophis's, words: "What?"

　Ragnarok's brow furrowed...

　He wasn't surprised that some people had gained faith and awakened the so-called "power of faith."

　After all, if "he" can do it, there's no reason why others absolutely cannot.

　What truly shocked him was...

　"Moire...a woman?"

　He repeated "Ragnarok" in a low voice, his voice filled with disbelief. He couldn't believe what kind of setting this was.

　However, if it's Moirai...

　As Ragnarok pondered this, countless possibilities flashed through his mind, and many of these thoughts made him uneasy.

　"God...tsk—"

　After clicking his tongue in disapproval, Ragnarok remained silent for a moment before slowly raising the blade in his hand: "In that case, it's time to end this."

　In the previous battle, Ragnarok did not hold back at all.

　However, the fighting he was engaging in was not to kill Cong Yu, but simply to prevent Cong Yu from blocking his way...

　And now, when unexpected events may occur.

　In order to prevent the roadblock from continuing to be an obstacle in the future, he must, at this moment, personally end the fate of his other self.

　Goodbye... another

　I! "

　"Ragnarok" said in a low voice, raising the blade in his hand.

　Then, as if he had noticed something, he turned his head to look behind him... There, a small hole appeared in the dark wall.

　The light from outside shone in through the small hole.

　"..." Cong Yu, lying on the ground, revealed a slight smile: "Well done... Yuan An..."

　[Source Darkness Apophis: Ah... I can't take it anymore... I'm going to die... I'm going to collapse... What happens next...]

　Then, in the next instant, the space here began to shake violently, accompanied by a roar transmitted from outside.

　There may have been slight shaking before, but what has begun at this moment is an extremely violent shaking.

　As a result, Ragnarok instantly became alert and attempted to repair itself.

　However, the "wall" within his sight was rapidly being breached, revealing the attackers outside.

　"Congyu-chan! We've come to save you!!"

　As the saying goes...

　Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain, Tea Ceremony, and then Wind, Forest, Fire, Mountain.

　This event is also recorded in NINJA SLAYER.

　However, there are definitely many memes that even experts or outsiders won't understand.
